After becoming a princess, she fell in love with the emperor of the enemy country

Chapter 238: Trip to Shangguo Temple

Madam Lu felt that she had finally found a common topic with Qi Wuyou, so she continued, "Don't be afraid of you laughing at me. When I found out that I could no longer hold a sword, I cried several times."

Qi Wuyou couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "I think it's amazing. This is a hero's medal."

Her words were full of admiration and respect for Madam Lu.

After hearing Qi Wuyou's words, Mrs. Lu felt warm in her heart.

She had never imagined that someone would look at her scars like this, as a form of honor.

She nodded gratefully to Qi Wuyou, tears glistening in her eyes.

When Xuan Yelan came to find Qi Wuyou, Madam Lu had already measured Qi Wuyou's size.

The two of them said goodbye to everyone in the Lu residence and got on the palace carriage.

While in the carriage, Xuan Yelan asked tentatively, "How are you getting along with your grandmother?"

Qi Wuyou thought for a moment and said, "It's OK. Madam Lu also said she would make clothes for me."

When Xuan Yelan heard this, he nodded slightly to show his satisfaction.

He knew that although his grandmother was always picky about outsiders, she was still very warm to her own people.

It seems that they have a good relationship.

Thinking of this, Xuan Yelan's mouth corners unconsciously raised and his mood became cheerful.

Xuan Yelan nodded and asked, "What about my aunt?"

Qi Wuyou shook his head and replied, "After a few words, it seemed like something happened, and they both left one after another."

Xuan Yelan frowned when he heard this and asked doubtfully, "It's fine, what could have happened?"

Qi Wuyou shook his head helplessly and explained: "I don't know, it was too far away, I didn't hear it clearly."

Xuan Yelan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the day when Concubine Li would take her children to Shangguo Temple to pray for blessings.

The Tenth Prince had already sent people to ambush on the road, ready to launch an attack.

According to common sense, the Emperor of Qi should have accompanied him, but this time he did not go with him. Instead, he assigned several royal guards to accompany him for protection.

In the end, it was Concubine Rou who accompanied Concubine Li and the children to Shangguo Temple.

In the carriage, Concubine Li and Concubine Rou were each holding a child.

These two little guys are now at a stage where they are curious about everything, and their eyes are rolling around.

Although they haven't been given a formal name yet, Concubine Li has already given them two cute nicknames: Peace and Joy.

Concubine Li gently coaxed her brother in her arms, saying, "My little baby, go to sleep..."

At the same time, she turned to Concubine Rou and complained, "Do you think that old man had anticipated that something would happen, so he didn't dare to come along?"

While teasing her sister Xile, Concubine Rou replied nonchalantly: "Who knows? Maybe."

Concubine Li grumbled with dissatisfaction: "Humph! I think that's it! Maybe when he saw the secret guards he trained died, he was so scared that he didn't even dare to leave the palace!"

The secret guard she was talking about was the one who had fought fiercely with the zombies at the previous palace banquet.

Afterwards, the Emperor of Qi did not even find a doctor for him, but instead had him thrown into a mass grave.

This made it convenient for He Yun. That night, he quietly went to the mass grave and stole the person back.

The reason why I mention this person is that although he was poisoned at the time, he was not dead yet. He was just in poor physical condition and looked like a puppet.

Ye Jiu worked overtime and used him to test drugs. Although he has not yet developed an antidote, he has successfully developed a method to suppress the toxin.

Today, although that person is still unable to speak, his mind is basically clear and his consciousness is gradually returning to normal.

"Hush!" Imperial Concubine Rou suddenly frowned and said in a serious tone, "Be careful with your words!"

Concubine Rou's stern expression frightened Concubine Li, and she quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

Imperial Concubine Rou glanced helplessly at Imperial Concubine Li, lowered her voice and continued, "Walls have ears, could you please pay more attention?"

Concubine Li looked at Concubine Rou with some embarrassment and nodded repeatedly to express her apology: "I understand. I will pay attention next time."

Unlike the relaxed and happy atmosphere between the two people in the carriage, the guards outside the carriage seemed extremely nervous.

Along the way, they remained highly alert and paid close attention to the movements around them.

The team moved forward slowly, and the atmosphere was tense and solemn.

When they came to a secluded mountain road, suddenly, a group of men in black emerged from all directions like ghosts and blocked their way.

The battle broke out instantly and both sides engaged in a fierce fight.

Fortunately, Commander Ma of the Royal Guard was very skilled. He waved his sword, blocked wave after wave of hidden arrows, and protected everyone in the team.

However, at this moment, a man in black took advantage of the chaos and rushed towards Concubine Li's sedan chair.

Commander Ma was quick-witted and stood in front of the sedan chair, engaging in a thrilling battle with the man in black.

Commander Ma is an expert swordsman, but the enemy is outnumbered and their attack is fierce.

The Tenth Prince has obviously invested a lot of money this time. These men in black are well-trained and their strength should not be underestimated.

Although Commander Ma fought hard, the guards around him fell one after another.

Commander Ma also had many wounds of varying depths on his body, and blood stained his armor red. But he still stood firm in front of the battle and did not retreat.

As time went on, Commander Ma's strength was gradually exhausted, while the attacks of the men in black became more and more fierce.

At this critical moment, a dark shadow flashed like lightning and joined the battle.

This mysterious man's swordsmanship was sharp and his moves were exquisite. After just a few moves, the men in black fell to the ground one after another.

Seeing this, Commander Ma took the opportunity to retreat back to the side of the carriage and asked with concern, "My two ladies, are you all right?"

Concubine Rou lifted the curtain and stared at the figure who was fighting fiercely with the man in black. Her eyes were full of concern and tension.

However, she did not show excessive panic or confusion, but calmly said to Commander Ma: "It's okay, let's go now."

Although Concubine Rou had only had a few brief encounters with the man in black, when she caught a glimpse of the dark shadow, she immediately realized that the person was Ye Qi.

Commander Ma did not hesitate at all. He quickly got on the carriage, drove the horses, and took the two men and two children away from this dangerous place.

The carriage sped away, leaving a cloud of dust in its wake.

Seeing them leave, Ye Qi raised his eyebrows slightly and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

He blew a light whistle, as if celebrating his success in protecting Concubine Rou and others.

At this moment, the sound of "Shua" was heard, and several men in black suddenly appeared around. They surrounded the Tenth Prince's assassins at an astonishing speed.

These men in black moved agilely and were obviously well-trained.
