But unexpectedly, Xuan Yuan Luo, the Second Prince had already rushed over to Leng Wan Xiang's side at this time.

He pointed his sword at Nan Gong Ling Yun: "What are you doing?"

"Heh heh."

However …

When Xuan Yuan Luo's long sword attacked, he only glanced at it for a second. He didn't even frown as he waved his sleeve.

"Clang!"

Xuan Yuan Luo's sword had been broken into two just like that, carrying the spirit force that Nan Gong Ling Yun casually flew over.

Xuan Yuan Luo was so shocked that his eyes opened wide, and he stood there in a daze for a long time.

When the female Leng Wan Xiang saw this, her face was filled with shock. She never thought that Xuan Yuan Luo, who was already a level 6 Wu Ying, would be so weak in front of Nan Gong Ling Yun.

"Hua Hua Hua!"

At this time, the sound of guards marching could be heard. Soon, he saw a large group of Saber Imperial bodyguards emerging from the back garden. They were like godly soldiers that descended from the sky, slaughtering everyone in their path the moment they appeared.

"Ping Ping Pang Pang Pang!"

"AHH!"

The table was overturned, the wine glasses shattered, and several flowers and plants were set on fire by the palace lights. In the blurry garden, all sorts of miserable screams could be heard.

There was someone running and someone screaming in front of him. Some raised their swords, while others fell. The scene was so chaotic that it was dazzling.

Su Xia Yue frowned, he only felt that he was in a world of darkness filled with blood and slaughter.

She hurriedly carried the unconscious Xiao Qi off the ground and hid her in a corner with Chi Luo Sheng and Mu Rong Qing.

And just like that, the more than thirty assassins hidden in the stands were killed one by one.

Blood splattered everywhere as dazzling blood lotuses blossomed in the air. This added a dense smell of blood to the originally fragrant Court Feast.

In just a few breaths, this chaotic scene was completely suppressed.

When everyone came back to their senses, they saw the corpses of assassins that had committed suicide all over the garden.

The Emperor, Empress and Empress Dowager who had just escaped death were protected by layers upon layers of protection.

Silence.

It was a calm after surviving a disaster.

The unarmed men looked around and began to discuss the beginning of the assassination.

Those who were by the side of the Emperor could address the Emperor directly.

Leng Wan Xiang said with absolute certainty: "I saw it, from the very beginning, it was that servant girl who started to kill people by Su Xia Yue's side!"

The empress nodded.

"Chenqie saw it too, and also saw that the Xu Family's Seventh Miss had only fallen to the ground due to poisoning after eating the fruit on Su Xia Yue's table! "This matter must definitely be related to her!"

The Second Prince, Xuan Yuan Luo, immediately requested for orders from the Emperor.

"Father, the evidence is conclusive! We should capture Su Xia Yue and interrogate him. We should be able to find clues related to him at this moment. "

"…"

As a result, everyone turned their attention to Su Xia Yue. Their eyes were filled with suspicion, anger, and accusation. As if an invisible arrow, landed on Su Xia Yue's body, causing him to feel extremely uncomfortable.

Nan Gong Ling Yun, who was in front, also looked at him quietly. However, his eyes were incomparably calm.

Su Xia Yue saw the trust in his calm eyes and felt slightly comforted in his heart.

Unfortunately, the situation was serious.

The emperor looked at Su Xia Yue and frowned.

He also had an impression of Su Xia Yue.

It was a woman who had participated in the Four Kingdoms Academy's grand ceremony and won first place for the Han Dynasty. However, all the signs pointed at her, so he could only wave his hand and instruct the guard beside him.

"Put her in prison first and have her interrogated by the justice courts."

"Yes sir!"

"Stop!"

Nan Gong Ling Yun, Mu Rong Qing and Chi Luo Sheng spoke at the same time. The guards who were about to walk toward Su Xia Yue were all shocked.

The Emperor looked over in astonishment.

Just who was Su Xia Yue, that made the Duke of Han Dynasty, Sixth Prince and a child of a large clan speak up at the same time?

The whole garden went quiet.

Without waiting for the three of them to speak, Su Xia Yue had already stepped forward and opened his mouth to explain himself.

"Although this servant girl was brought by me, the weapon on her body was not brought by me. If you don't believe me, you can take a look at the material of the sword she is wearing."

Hearing this, the Emperor indicated for the guards to follow Su Xia Yue's instructions and have a look.

When the guard opened up the body of the servant girl, he took out the sword from her hand and examined it. Then, a different expression was revealed on his face.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this is a sword made of fine iron. Only the imperial family has such a weapon."

The guard's report caused everyone to reveal a shocked expression.

Only, for some reason, the Second Prince, Xuan Yuan Luo, refuted Su Xia Yue with all his might.

"Even if it is a sword that belongs to the royal family, it could still be deliberately given to her to use. So even if it isn't something that an ordinary person has, it doesn't mean it has nothing to do with you. It's clearly a clue that you don't need it."

The empress nodded in agreement. "The second prince is right. It's too far-fetched to say you're innocent just because of this."

However …

Su Xia Yue was still calm and composed, with a confident smile on his lips. He turned and looked at Chi Luo Sheng who was beside him.

At this time, Chi Luo Sheng and Su Xia Yue exchanged glances and then walked out.

He first bowed towards the Emperor, the Second Prince, and the others before smiling in a reserved manner and giving a faint explanation.

"This servant girl called herself a Xiao E. In fact, she only arrived at the Su Palace yesterday! When Miss Su took her in, she was being pursued by two of the Flamedoor Lodge's people. It was through this conspiracy that she managed to gain sympathy and thus came to Su Family. "

"Cut the crap. These are all your one-sided words. You can't completely believe it." Xuan Yuan Luo impatiently waved his hand to interrupt Chi Luo Sheng's words.

Su Xia Yue's eyes that were cold like the moon slightly floated towards Xuan Yuan Luo.

It seems like he was in a desperate situation ….
