Chapter 1543: Foolish ruler in the way: How many times do you want to be assassinated? (Part 27)

She brandished the Phoenix Dance Sword.  She was dressed in red as the snowflakes danced around her, falling onto her long hair.

Under the moonlight, it was like there was a flower that appeared on her forehead.

Yue Ying narrowed his cold eyes and felt a strange sense of pressure.

This feeling was very deep, but he didn’t know where it came from.

The young girl in red was holding an unknown sword in her hand with eyes as cold as ice.  At first glance, it didn’t seem like she knew any martial arts.

“Do you think that words before dying have any use?”  Yue Ying gave a cold laugh before saying to the twenty people around her, “Brothers, go!”

Snowflakes fell and petals rose into the sky with the sword.

The Phoenix Dance Sword came out of its sheath and battled against the world!

At the same time, in the Supreme Harmony Hall.

The Tian Zhu envoys arrived and there was singing and dancing all around, looking very lively.

Yue Cai Zhi was wearing a golden robe with a blue jasmine brocaded pattern, with a magpie plum hairpin atop her head.  She was holding a translucent fan in her hand, looking very elegant and dignified.

There were two rows of harem girls who had never seen the emperor and Yue Cai Zhi felt like she was full of charm at this moment.

Everyone around were jealous of her, jealous that she was the one in Lin Nan Yi’s heart.

But she never thought that these harem girls…..would look down on her.

“I heard that she was the new favoured one of the emperor, she really is far from being able to compare to the previous princess in the Golden Palace!”

“I agree!   Last time when I bought some lavender petals from her, she gave me all kinds of different petals.”

“Right, right, right, that miss Yue isn’t even considered a harem girl and she even called out to me……”

“You were called!”

“Right, to take down a kite stuck in the tree for her.  After all, she is an important person by the emperor’s side and I’ve only seen the emperor’s true face today, so how could I offend her?”

“But really, the emperor is so handsome……”

…...

Although their voices were small, there were still a few lines that came into Yue Cai Zhi’s ears.

Her expression changed and her sharp eyes swept over the faces of those concubine girls.

When they saw this, they immediately lowered their heads.

But at this moment, there was a guard covered in blood that rushed into the Supreme Harmony Hall.  He fell down in front of Gu Feng and stuttered, “There’s…..assassins…..many of them…...Her…...Her highness……”

Before he could finish, he fainted from a loss of blood.

Lin Dong Xue who was sitting in the back saw this and got out of his seat while everyone was focused on the dancing.

“Did something happen?”  He saw Gu Feng about to head in Lin Nan Yi’s direction and stopped him.

“There are assassins in her highness’ palace, this servant is about to report to the emperor.”

“No need.”  Lin Dong Xue looked up at the platform before saying to the nervous Gu Feng, “The envoys can see this, don’t disturb the emperor.  Bring some guards, I’ll go with you.”

“This……”

“What, Gu Feng, are you doubting this king’s martial arts?”

“How could this servant dare?  The Pacifying West King can fight a hundred alone, everyone in the royal palace knows this.”  He knitted his brows and cupped his hands, “This servant will go with your highness.”

Lin Dong Xue didn’t know that when he left his seat, there were two people in the Supreme Harmony Hall who noticed him.

One was Yue Cai Zhi and the other was Lin Nan Yi.
