The imperial capital city is very quiet tonight, only the thunder is rolling, and almost all the shadow guards are out. Not only the gate of the city is closed in advance, but also all the intersections outside the city are blocked.
"Lord Cheng, the whole stone village has been surrounded. We have been looking for people from door to door." There is shadow guard to stand in the shadow of Cheng Zheng said.
"What happened to the Song family?" Cheng Zheng asked in a deep voice.
Shadow Wei said, "song Hongao has been in the study, the second princess is accompanying the old lady song."
"See the second princess accompany the old lady song?" Cheng Zheng asked.
"This..." The shadow guards hesitated.
Cheng Zheng voice cold, "immediately back to the palace, block the second princess, do not let her see the emperor."
"Yes." The shadow guards left.
Pa Pa --
the rain poured down in torrents, and the raindrops hurt on the face.
"My Lord, the rain is too heavy. Why don't you go back first..." A shadow guard with an umbrella opened his mouth in a low voice. Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by another voice.
"My Lord, there is a house behind the woods in the Taoist temple."
Cheng Zheng's face changed and walked into the storm, "guarding all the exits of the stone village."
……
……
Zhao Xiang managed to get out of the secret road. Before she arrived at the palace, it was raining heavily. She did not take a carriage, nor did she have an umbrella. She stood in front of the Palace door in confusion, but was told that the emperor had gone to bed and blocked her outside the palace door.
"When the emperor goes to bed, I will wait in the hall." Zhao Xiang looks at the shadow guard standing in front of her, knowing that Cheng Zheng wants these people to stop her from seeing Zhao Rao.
"Second princess, please don't embarrass us." Said the shadow guard.
Zhao Xiang was still standing in the rain? Now it's raining cats and dogs. How can I go back? "
"The second princess has prepared a carriage for you."
"It was already ready." Zhao Xiang sneered, "if I don't see the emperor tonight, I won't leave."
"The second princess, the emperor has been sleeping uneasily recently. It's rare to have a good sleep. The slaves dare not wake up. You might as well come back tomorrow..." The palace man advised in a low voice.
Zhao Xiang looked at the gate of the palace, and then looked at the dark sky. "Today, unless you kill this palace, otherwise this palace must see the emperor."
Several shadow guards look at each other and prepare to follow Cheng Zheng's orders. If Zhao xiangqiang insists on meeting the emperor, he can knock her out first.
"Second princess, offended." Yingwei splits Zhao Xiang with one hand.
After a flash of lightning, Zhao Xiang was still standing upright, but there were several figures behind him. Their clothes were the same as those of the shadow guards, and they had already protected Zhao Xiang behind him.
Zhao Rao, who was sleeping in the bedroom hall, was suddenly awakened by a thunder.
"Your Majesty?" The maid in the palace outside heard the news and rushed in.
Zhao Rao some blankly looked around, pillow person unexpectedly not in, she slightly frowned, "what time?"
"My Lord, it's time." Said the maid.
It's midnight!
Zhao Rao came down from the bed and saw that there was no figure she was familiar with in the bedroom. She was more and more puzzled, "what about the chief assistant?"
"After your majesty fell asleep, the first officer left the palace." The maiden replied.
"Out of the palace?" Zhao Rao is stunned. Is there anything else outside the palace today? "Did you leave any words?"
The maid of the palace put on her clothes for Zhao Rao, "the chief assistant told the maids not to wake you up and let you have a good sleep."
Zhao Rao faintly smiles, but her heart is slightly uneasy. She always feels that something is going to happen.
"How long has it been raining outside?" How can it rain heavily at this time? It's getting cold.
"In the evening, there was a scene. I thought it would clear up. It started to fall again in the evening. It has been half an hour." Said the maid.
Zhao Rao sleeps for most of the day. At this time, she doesn't feel sleepy at all. When she sees that there is a large pile of memorials on the desk, she asks the maid to light the lamp. She is ready to read the memorial while waiting for Cheng Zheng.
She knows that no matter how late Cheng Zheng will come back to accompany her.
Ever since she accepted his feelings, he has almost spoiled her to heaven. Because the five younger brothers had listened to other people's words and reprimanded her in front of the public. He felt that she had lost the face of the royal family, so Cheng Zheng simply let her become the queen. No one would dare to talk about their affairs any more.
Cheng Zheng
Zhao Rao felt that she missed him inexplicably. Although he was more powerful than before in the past two years, she knew that everything was for her.
Why hasn't he come back? What else can he do in such a heavy rain?
"What's going on out there?" Zhao Rao asked suspiciously, as if she heard the sound of swords.
"I will go and have a look." The maid said in a low voice and went out of the palace to see what happened.
Zhao Rao gathered up her clothes and slowly walked out of the bedroom hall. When she came to the door, she could be sure that she was not wrong. Someone was fighting in the rainstorm."Emperor, there seems to be an assassin outside the palace." The maid said in surprise that some assassins dare to break into the palace.
"Not an assassin!" If it was an assassin, she would have already alerted the imperial guards in the palace. The palace was so quiet that it was obvious that the people fighting outside did not threaten her.
"Go and have a look." Zhao Rao said.
There are palace people running in the rain, "the emperor, the second princess asked to see you, the shadow guard and In the past, the shadow guards of the former Emperor began to fight. "
The shadow guard of the late emperor? Isn't that Zhao Yong's former confidant?
"The second princess asked to see you. Why did the shadow guards fight?" Zhao Rao asked coldly.
"Yes For fear of disturbing the emperor's rest, the second princess is not allowed to enter the palace. " The palace man whispered.
Zhao Rao said, "such a heavy rain, let the second princess in the rain outside? Go and invite her into the palace. I want to see her. "
She knows Zhao Xiang very well. If it wasn't for an urgent matter, she would not have entered the palace at this time, let alone conflict with Cheng Zheng's people.
"Forget it. Bring me my umbrella." Zhao Rao said that those shadow guards most listen to Cheng Zheng's words, she still went to see Zhao Xiang in person.
Outside the palace gate, Zhao Xiang looked at the figure fighting in the rain. She didn't expect that someone would come to help her. She was also the shadow guards before her father's emperor. They didn't show up very often. They didn't seem to exist in the shadow guards. Now they are all masters. There's no need for Cheng Zheng's subordinates to be bad.
She must go into the palace to see Zhao Rao.
"Stop it all!" When Zhao Xiang was ready to rush into the palace, she finally saw a familiar figure appear.
"Elder sister..." Zhao Xiang recklessly rushed forward, "go and save five sisters."
Zhao Rao looked at Zhao Xiang, who was wet all over the body. Under the light, her lips were blue and her voice was shaking. "Five sisters are in the stone city. Cheng Zheng has taken people to find her. Go and save her."
"What are you talking about? How can Ning'er be in stone village? Cheng Zheng won't hurt her. " Zhao Rao helped Zhao Xiang, "quickly help the second princess in, please come to the imperial doctor."
Zhao Xiang tightly grasped Zhao Rao's hand, "go, save Ning'er."
