After silently cursing, Hua Mujiao took the blood coral jade hairpin from the box and swept over the huge palace. She suddenly felt that there was something strange behind the screen, and instantly released a murderous aura.

Activating her martial arts, Hua Mujiao opened the screen with a palm strike. At that moment, a black figure appeared behind the screen.

Without time to think, Hua Mujiao stepped forward and began to fight with the black clothed man.

"You dare to steal from me? You're courting death!"

Hua Mujiao's moves were vicious, as if she wanted to kill the man in black without holding back his strength in the slightest.

Pearl and the green bamboo, who were standing not far from the entrance of the palace, were already scared stiff.

After a long time, the green bamboo saw that Hua Mujiao was on par with the black clothed man. Just as the black clothed man was about to hit Hua Mujiao, it hurriedly shouted, "Empress, be careful …"

At this moment, Pearl's face was filled with endless worry. Suddenly, she turned around and ran out of the palace. She shouted, "Men! Assassins! Men! Assassins!"

Seeing this, the black clothed man wanted to escape, but Hua Mujiao held him back.

In the palace, Hua Mujiao was tangled with the black clothed man, and just as Hua Mujiao was at a disadvantage, the black clothed man suddenly took out a dagger from his waist, and at the same time, the jade pendant the black clothed man stole from the sandalwood cabinet.

Before he could pay attention to the jade pendant, the black clothed man pointed his dagger at Hua Mujiao and stabbed out …

"Empress …"

Just as the dagger was about to pierce into Hua Mujiao's heart, Green Bamboo, who wasn't too far away, shouted loudly and charged forward, directly blocking in front of Hua Mujiao and stabbing her in the back.

"Green Bamboo …!"

Hua Mu Jin panicked for a moment, and called out the green bamboo's name. Her hand touched the green bamboo's back, and a warm feeling came from Hua Mu Jin's palm.

" fu.ck ！ "Sit!"

Seeing the man in black take the opportunity to escape from the palace, Hua Mujiao didn't dare to put down the bamboo, and could only watch on helplessly.

When the man in black was about to disappear, Hua Mujiao suddenly cursed, "If you have the ability, don't let this old lady catch you! If I don't kill you, I won't believe in flowers!"

After Pearl's call, the guard outside the palace rushed in. At this time, the black-clothed man had already disappeared without a trace.

"Mother, Empress, you haven't … are you alright …?"

Resisting the pain in its back with great difficulty, the green bamboo still asked about the flower hibiscus, fearing that it would be injured.

"I'm fine, don't say anything!" Covering the place where the green bamboo had been stabbed by the dagger, and bleeding profusely, Hua Mujie looked at the pearl and the guard who had rushed over, and roared in anger.

"What are you all standing there in a daze for? Hurry up and send people to chase after him!" After she finished roaring at the guards, Hua Mujiao turned to the pearl with moist eyes and growled in a low voice, "What are you crying for? Hurry up and summon Imperial Physician Xuan!"

"Yes, yes, your servant, your servant …"

With bloodshot eyes, Pearl turned and ran out.

Hua Mu Jin could not take it anymore, and supported the green bamboo towards the bed.

She had originally wanted Green Bamboo to lie down on her bed, but Green Bamboo, who still had a sliver of consciousness, used a weak voice to persuade her. "Empress, servant, servant, is a servant, a servant. No, no, no, no …"

However, before Green Bamboo could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Hua Mujiao.

"Shut up! Get down, don't talk anymore! "

The green bamboo's mouth slightly raised as it looked at Hua Mu Jin, who had been angered by its master, and then fell unconscious.

As it was announced by the palace, the imperial physician arrived quickly and stopped the bleeding for the green bamboo. The imperial physician handed the pearl a bottle of medicine and instructed it to put it on the bamboo.

"How is it? Is she all right? "

Putting away the medicine box, the imperial physician's expression didn't seem very good. He replied, "In reply to the Empress, Miss Green Bamboo only lost too much blood and fainted. It wasn't too bad. However, there is poison on that dagger. Although this subject has cured her of her poison, some of the poison has already seeped into her spine.

Poison?

In a split-second, Hua Mujie clenched her teeth, her small hand clenching into a fist.

If it weren't for the green bamboo blocking the knife for her, the dagger would have stabbed into her heart long ago, and she wouldn't be alive!

"Alright, you can leave now!"

"This official will take his leave."

After the imperial physician left, the guards that were following the black-clothed man also returned. However, they returned empty-handed.

"Empress, after this subordinate arrived at Weiyang Palace, the black-clothed person disappeared without a trace. Originally, this subordinate wanted to enter Weiyang Palace to search, but was stopped by esteemed wangfei. This subordinate was incompetent, so I ask for your punishment, esteemed wangfei! "

As she listened to the guard's report, Hua Mujiao shot a sharp glance at the guard, which caused a chill to run down the backs of all the guards.

"You just said that he disappeared from Weiyang Palace?"

"Yes."

Closing her eyes, Hua Mu Jin exhaled a deep breath, gritted her teeth and called out a person's name. "Wei Hanshuang …!"

Glancing at the guard, she clutched the jade pendant left behind by the black clothed man, staring at him, "Scram! Get the hell out of here! "

Not being punished was a good thing for the guards.

If he were to meet another master, he would probably end up eating a meal without any danger to his life.

This caused the guards to feel inexplicably guilty.

Afterwards, the green bamboo was carried out of the palace and sent to his own room. Sitting inside the palace, Hua Mujiao was thinking about how to get rid of Wei Hanshuang, this woman with a heart like a scorpion's.

Not long after the guards had left, Bai Zhan asked about the situation and hurried over.

Seeing Hua Mujiao's unsightly expression, he knew that she was still angry in her heart.

"Are you all right? Are you hurt? "

Hua Mujie's anger had not yet subsided. Seeing Bai Zhan Ke rushing over, she did not even give him a good look.

Instead, he vented his anger on Bai Zhan Ke.

"I'm lucky. I won't die!" But I have witnessed your consorts, and they are each more powerful than the last, each more vicious than the last! "

Hua Mujie said angrily, but Bai Zhan was not angry.

He stepped forward and sized up Hua Mu Jin. Seeing that she was uninjured, his heart that was hanging in his throat also dropped.

"This palace is a place that eats people and doesn't spit their bones out. As long as you are fine, everything is fine."

Bai Zhan Ke spoke very easily, but Hua Mujiao's heart didn't feel good.

Perhaps to Bai Zhan Ke, it was a matter of course for a servant to be able to defend his master's sword, but to Hua Mujiao, a human's life was equal to a human's life, and no one's life was inferior to another's.

"Bai Zhan Ke, since your concubines have dared to touch my thoughts, don't blame me for turning your harem upside down. I'd like to see who can beat who in terms of methods!"

"As long as you are happy with this harem, the more chaotic it is, the better. Because you promised, the harem had no concubines, that you would be my woman. "

Hua Mujiao's words had just fallen when Bai Zhan gently replied to her.

What Bai Zhan Ke said both surprised and helpless Hua Mujiao, and her original anger also dissipated.

"Can you be more serious?" With a white eye, Hua Mujiao felt a little embarrassed and turned her face away.

"I'm serious!"

"…"

For a moment, Hua Mu Jin was at a loss for words. She stood up with the intention of leaving Bai Zhan Ke's side, pretending to ignore her.

However, just as he stood up, Bai Zhan directly grabbed his wrist and pulled with a bit of force, allowing Hua Mujiao to sit on his lap.

In an instant, the flower hibiscus was blushing.

"What?" Let me go! "

He buried his head in Hua Mujie-Jin's chest, and heard Bai Zhan's low voice, "It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine."

Hugging her tightly, Hua Mujiao felt as though her body was being imprisoned.

This ambiguous atmosphere caused her heart to beat rapidly.

Especially after Bai Zhan had said 'It's good that you're fine', it made her feel like her heart was like a little deer running around, shy and warm at the same time.

"Let me go, I'm almost suffocated by your hug."

It was just an exaggeration, but he hadn't expected it to be true.

He hurriedly loosened his grip, an apologetic look flashed across Bai Zhanji's face, and only after seeing Hua Mujiao laughing out loud, did he realize that he had been tricked.

The corner of the man's mouth curled up slightly. He suddenly said, "Many ministers have come to the court this morning to tell you that I will favor you alone. Some ministers believe that since I will favor you alone, there should be some movement in your stomach."

Bai Zhan Ke suddenly changed the subject, leaving Hua Mujiao with no time to react.

By the time she could react, Bai Zhan had already wrapped her arms around her and was walking towards the bed …

"I feel that all of the ministers' words are very reasonable. In order to gag all of them, do you think that there should be some movement in her stomach, Jin'er?"

In a split-second, Hua Mujiao's eyes widened as she stared at Bai Zhan Ke, she had not even managed to regain her senses, and was instead completely stunned.

When she finally regained her senses, she hurriedly reached out her hand to push the white calico. She was both nervous and a little scared as she said, "You, you, you, you … "Bai Zhan Ke, you, don't act recklessly. I never said I'd marry some prince for you, move aside, move out of the way …"

When she saw Bai Zhan Ke place her on the bed and bend down, Hua Mujie's face turned red with embarrassment.

She tried to push him away, but the white warrior easily pinned her down and clasped her hands.

Seeing Bai Zhan Ke stoop down, Hua Mujiao didn't know what to think, but she actually shut her eyes abruptly.

His kiss fell on her lips.

The two of them seemed to have been electrocuted and began to resonate.

However, the man only lightly kissed her and quickly let her go.

Seeing that she still had her eyes closed, he shook his head helplessly. He reached out a finger and lightly flicked her forehead.

"Fool!"

"Ah …!"

Opening her eyes, Hua Mujiao made her move. She touched her forehead, which had been shot, with a face full of dissatisfaction.

"What are you doing?" I wonder if flicking one's forehead will cause you any pain? "

Seeing Hua Mujie's cute and adorable pouting appearance, Bai Zhan Ke's smile became even wider.

Even Hua Mujiao did not notice that she had actually started to act coquettishly in front of this man who she had always refused to open her heart to.

"If you really are in pain, just bounce back. I'll endure."

Glancing at Bai Zhan Ke, Hua Mujiao turned her head away from him, "Who wants to play you? "You can go now. I'm tired, and I'm going to sleep."

It was rare for her to reveal the appearance of a little woman, but it made Bai Zhan Ke love her dearly in his heart.

Even though he really wanted to stay, he didn't have the time to be with her right now, so he shook his head helplessly.

"The matters of the court these days are complicated, I've already sent extra people to guard the Hibiscus Temple. If there's nothing else, you can avoid going out and walking around, and it will save those people the trouble of thinking about you, do you understand?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hua Mujiao turned to look at him, her face dark.

After a long while, she finally spoke up, "Your women have been wanting to harm me for more than a day or two. Even though I rarely walk around the palace, do you really think that they won't do anything to harm me? There's no telling who else might be hiding in this palace. "
