Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 493 Lin Huishan's Revenge

Nanyue Palace.

When those people jumped into the courtyard of Nanyue Palace, Hu Yu, who was sleeping on the bed, had already opened his eyes.

He jumped off the bed swiftly and reached out to grab the long sword beside him.

There were sounds of fighting coming from the yard.

He knew that those were the secret guards who were responsible for protecting His Highness' safety, fighting with those people.

He held the sword in his hand and came to the door of His Highness' bedroom.

There was no sound in His Highness's room.

But he knew that His Highness must be hiding by the window, observing what was happening outside.

Hu Yu just stood quietly at the door of Xuanyuan Jing's room.

Watching quietly those secret guards fighting with those killers.

In the assassinations during these days, many secret guards of Nanyue Palace were killed or injured.

Although Emperor Nan Zhao also ordered some additional secret guards to come.

However, assassinations against Nanyue Palace are becoming more and more frequent.

The secret guards were added to the Nanyue Palace, but they could not keep up with the rate of casualties caused by the assassins.

Therefore, the number of secret guards in Nanyue Palace is obviously insufficient.

Those killers forced the secret guards to retreat step by step.

It seemed that they were about to rush to the door of Xuanyuan Jing's room.

Hu Yu raised the sword in his hand.

The brutal fight started again.

Hu Yu, holding a sword, stopped the assassins who wanted to rush into the house.

The bodies of the killers were lying all over the steps.

There are fewer and fewer killers left alive.

Now, there is only one secret guard left in Nanyue Palace, and Hu Yu, who is covered in blood, is still fighting desperately.

Hu Yu understood it very well.

If it were in the past, such a big thing happened in the palace and so many assassins broke in.

Emperor Nan Zhao had already sent people to rescue.

But during these assassination attempts on them, it seemed as if no one in the palace heard anything.

No one reported to Emperor Nan Zhao.

It was obvious that someone had instructed not to let people in the palace get involved in this matter.

And apart from the two princes-in-law, no one else has this right.

So tonight, if no one comes to rescue him, he may not survive.

Hu Yu suddenly felt very happy at this moment.

Isn't it just death?

He is not afraid.

The last secret guard also fell down.

Now, Hu Yu is the only one left to deal with the remaining three killers.

Hu Yuqiang took a deep breath and poured all of his little internal energy into the sword in his hand.

He rushed towards the three men like a madman without hesitation.

And his posture was completely like he was fighting without caring about his life.

But it worked.

The three men died under his sword.

He also had one arm cut off and fell at Xuanyuan Jing's door.

It was completely quiet outside.

The assassination was over.

Xuanyuan Jing opened the door tremblingly.

"Hu Yu..."

Xuanyuan Jing could see it clearly from inside the room.

The person lying at his door was Hu Yu.

So he squatted down, wanting to see if Hu Yu could be saved.

He stretched out his hand and felt Hu Yu's breath.

Unfortunately, Hu Yu had already died.

Xuanyuan Jing suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Hu Yu is dead...

Who will protect him after that?

Rely on these palace servants in Nanyue Palace?

It’s already this late, but none of the palace servants have come out to take a look.

But at this time, a door opened.

Her princess, Lin Huishan, came out.

Perhaps due to the blow of losing both her parents, Lin Huishan looks very thin.

She slowly walked to the distraught Xuanyuan Jing.

Xuanyuan Jing was still immersed in despair.

Even when Lin Huishan walked in front of him, he acted as if he didn't see her.

Lin Huishan suddenly raised her hands which had been hanging down.

In her hand, she held a dagger.

And she stabbed the dagger into Xuanyuan Jing's chest cleanly and neatly.

Feeling the pain in her chest, Xuanyuan Jing reflexively pushed Lin Huishan away.

The thin Lin Huishan was pushed to the ground by him.

"Someone, come quickly..."

Xuanyuan Jing sat on the ground, holding her chest, and shouted at the top of her lungs.

Lin Huishan got up from the ground and pounced on Xuanyuan Jing again without hesitation.

She used her body to press Xuanyuan Jing's chest.

The dagger was still stuck in Xuanyuan Jing's chest.

The extreme pain made Xuanyuan Jing desperately want to push her away.

Lin Huishan hugged Xuanyuan Jing's neck tightly, and he couldn't push her away no matter how hard he tried.

At this time, the palace maids serving in Nanyue Palace heard Xuanyuan Jing's shout and all ran out.

They quickly surrounded her and tried to pull Lin Huishan away from Xuanyuan Jing.

Unfortunately, Lin Huishan hugged her too tightly.

These people finally pulled Lin Huishan away, only to find that Xuanyuan Jing had fainted from the pain.

A dagger was deeply stuck in his chest.

Of the dagger, only the handle was left outside.

The palace servants in Nanyue Palace were all frightened out of their wits.

If His Highness dies tonight, they will not be able to survive.

So someone ran out to call the imperial physician.

At this time, Lin Huishan, who was slumped on the ground, was unusually sober.

She has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

She had been eating and sleeping in her own room for so many days and had not come out to bother Xuanyuan Jing.

Because she knew Xuanyuan Jing too well.

As long as she didn't go out, Xuanyuan Jing wouldn't be able to find her own business.

That way he wouldn't find excuses to harm his own life.

Besides, Xuanyuan Jing is now like a stray dog, feeling anxious all day long.

He also had to maintain his filial and kind side to win the favor of Emperor Nan Zhao.

If he killed his first wife for no reason.

He was afraid that Emperor Nan Zhao would be disappointed with his cruelty.

So even though Xuanyuan Jing hated her to the extreme, she didn't do anything to her for the time being.

This also gave her an opportunity.

She always kept that dagger ready for this beast in human form.

In the past, Xuanyuan Jing had Hu Yu by her side, so she didn't dare to act rashly.

She knew she only had one chance.

If she fails, she will surely die.

She was unwilling to die like that.

She must make this heartless beast in front of her die.

She would die with regret if she didn't see him die with her own eyes.

So she has been waiting for an opportunity.

Wait for the best opportunity to make a move.

She watched the assassinations every night from the window.

She kept praying in her heart, praying that the killers would be able to kill Xuanyuan Jing.

Unfortunately, Hu Yu, who was beside Xuanyuan Jing, was too powerful, so those people failed.

So tonight, the moment she saw Hu Yu die, she knew her chance had come.

Since she had been prepared, she would give Pearl some sleeping pills every night.

She wouldn't wake up until morning.

Pei'er was very loyal to her and she didn't want to implicate the poor girl.

As long as this girl was not involved in the assassination.

Maybe Emperor Nan Zhao will spare her life.
