C807 807 Royal Shadow Guard

Qin Xuan was escorted by the money guards to the courtyard in front of him. This was the main courtyard of the Residence of Duke Duan, Qin Xuan's residence.

"Your Highness, the doctor is about to arrive. Please lie down and rest first."

He took off his outer robe and sat down on the edge of the bed. He thought about the girl who had saved him today and said after a moment of thought, "I have ordered people to take good care of that girl. I will ask her later."

"Yes."

Liu Ruo Qing was invited into the Apricot Forest Garden by a member of the Duke Yuan Palace. This was a courtyard that was relatively close to the courtyard where the distinguished guests resided.

Since Liu Ruo Qing could be considered to be Qin Xuan's savior, the people from the Duke Palaces would naturally not dare to slight him.

After half an hour, Liu Ruo Qing had already finished cleaning up, and the servant had already prepared clothes for her to change into.

As soon as he switched places, a servant came to pass on, "Miss, my Prince has invited you."

Qin Xuan was looking for her?

Liu Ruo Qing nodded, "Alright, lead the way."

When Liu Ruo Qing first lived in the East Garden, he gave her a cold and hard feeling. No matter whether it was the plants in the courtyard, or the decorations in the house, they all gave her the personality of a house owner being cold and emotional.

And Qin Xuan's presence in the courtyard didn't give her a magnificent look, yet also didn't give her the ice-cold feeling that the main courtyard of the King Jing Palace gave her.

This place gave her a clear and refreshing feeling. It was neither cold nor warm, just right for the temperature.

Liu Ruo Qing subconsciously thought of Yan Yuan, and her heart slightly tightened. She calmed her mind and no longer looked at the environment of the courtyard.

When she entered the room, the doctor who took care of Qin Xuan's injuries had already left. At this time, Qin Xuan was lying on the soft ground beside the window, with his white robe draped loosely over his body, revealing a white gauze cloth covered with blood.

His black hair hung down carelessly, giving him a demonic air.

"How are your injuries?"

Liu Ruo Qing did not admire him for too long, she walked straight up to Qin Xuan and sat down.

Qin Xuan slightly raised his eyes and looked at her calm face, his gaze slowly moving to her fair neck, and then a look of surprise flashed across his originally calm eyes.

"I never thought that there would actually be a woman among the shadow guards of the Easternum."

Because Qin Xuan was injured, his breath was weak when he spoke, but the words that came out from his mouth made Liu Ruo Qing feel strange.

The shadow guard of the Easternum?

What is this? Could the literal explanation be that he was a dark guard?

She had never heard of the name of Shadow Guards in Easternum, so when she heard Qin Xuan's words, her eyes were filled with confusion.

Seeing that Liu Ruo Qing did not say anything, Qin Xuan thought that she had only tacitly acknowledged his identity. A complex look flashed across his cold eyes, "Why would the shadow guards of Easternum come to my Nanling?"

Liu Ruo Qing did not immediately deny it to Qin Xuan. Instead, she smiled lightly: "Why does Your Highness think that I am the shadow guard of the Easternum?"

He pointed to Liu Ruo Qing's neck and said: "Aren't you wearing the's Shadow Guard medallion?" This King coincidentally saw it when he was young. "

Back then, he was eight years old and because of his greed, he accidentally saved a heavily injured man. That person was precisely wearing that medallion.

More than ten years ago, he was saved by his own big brother, the crown prince, who was secretly assassinated by Yan Yuan, and one of the hidden guards was the person whom he had saved all those years ago.

On the way back to the capital, that person told him that he was responsible for protecting the top shadow guard in the Kaiser and was later sent by the Kaiser to his Ninth Emperor, Yan Yuan.

Therefore, when he saw the sign on Liu Ruo Qing's neck, Liu Ruo Qing thought of him as a royal shadow guard.

The Shadow Guards were of a higher level than the Dark Guards, and were generally only involved in high-levelled missions. Hence, there were very few people who had seen the Shadow Guards, so Liu Ruo Qing naturally did not know about it.

The clothes worn by the Nanling were a little more open than that of the one worn by the Easternum. Its collar was open, and it revealed an obvious collarbone, thus Qin Xuan was able to see the signboard hanging around Liu Ruo Qing's neck with a glance.

Hearing Qin Xuan mention this silver medal, Liu Ruo Qing's hand subconsciously reached to her neck.'s words made Liu Ruo Qing's heart suddenly tremble.

If she had not been able to control her emotions well, she would have definitely spouted such words in front of Qin Xuan.

"You … You said this badge is the sign for the Easternum's Royal Shadow Guard? "

Liu Ruo Qing's hand, which was holding onto the silver medal, became heavier unconsciously. She had to endure it, in order to prevent her hand from shaking so badly.

She thought back to the words of the professor at the ancient tomb. The reason why this plate was in the imperial mausoleum was definitely because it was related to the imperial family, and now with what Qin Xuan had said …

Liu Ruo Qing's face immediately lost all color, and her eyes became extremely sore.

Qin Xuan also noticed that something was wrong with Liu Ruo Qing and a hint of loss flashed past her eyes.

"Aren't you Easternum's shadow guard?"

Since she didn't recognize this brand, then where did she get this brand from?

Liu Ruo Qing's face was extremely ugly right now, causing him to feel confused. Looking at her, it was as though she had suffered a huge blow to her, was it related to this tablet?

After expending a great deal of effort to calm himself down, Liu Ruo Qing was barely able to lift the corner of his lips into a smile, "No, this was given to me by an old friend."

Who is this old friend? Qin Xuan did not have the mind to ask, but seeing that Liu Ruo Qing's face was so pale, he said: "Young lady's complexion is not good, seems like you are not feeling well, why not return to the other courtyard to rest?"

"Alright, thank you very much."

Liu Ruo Qing was indeed not in the mood to continue staying with Qin Xuan. She was afraid that she would lose control of her emotions, so hearing Qin Xuan's words, she stood up and quickly left.

Qin Xuan watched Liu Ruo Qing's figure leave with a thoughtful expression.

Liu Ruo Qing walked all the way back to Apricot Forest Garden, then collapsed on the ground.

"Royal Shadow Guards …" "The royal shadow guard …"

She tore off the silver badge hanging around her neck with her bare hands. The sunlight that shone from outside the window onto the silver badge caused Liu Ruo Qing's eyes to feel extremely sore.

If it was the warm sunshine, Liu Ruo Qing would not feel the slightest bit of warmth. In fact, when she thought about the origin of this silver medal, she felt a chill all over her body.

"Imperial clan …"

She had always thought that the "royal" that the servant was referring to was Liu Cheng He, but she never thought that it was referring to the Yan Clan, the Yan Clan!

She remembered the day when Uncle Madness gave this plate to her. When Tian Shu looked at the plate, his expression was strange. He must have recognized this plate long ago, but at that time, she had never suspected anything.

"No, it can't be. It can't be the Yan Clan."

She shook her head in sudden excitement, and tears began to flow uncontrollably.

"It can't be the Yan Clan, it can't be the Yan Clan."
