Chapter 543 A Good Candidate for a Powerful Official
When it was getting dark, Xuanyuan Chen and the palm eunuch both woke up.
The people sent by the Supreme Emperor were in a stalemate outside for a long time, but the man in black next to Xie Jin was enough to make him return without success.
After Xuanyuan Chen woke up, his eyes were filled with mist, and it took him a long time to feel the pain and weakness all over his body.
For a moment, he didn't even know where he was, his mind went blank, and he completely forgot what happened before.
Until a familiar voice sounded in my ears: "Are you awake?"
Xuanyuan Chen came back to his senses instantly, and when he sat up, he realized that he was lying on the ground.
Yes, when Chu Nanyi performed the acupuncture on him and the palm eunuch, he never thought of placing them in a more comfortable place. There was no bed in the imperial study, only a separate dragon couch for the emperor to rest temporarily when he was tired from dealing with the affairs of the court.
Since it is a dragon couch, naturally only the emperor can use it.
Although no one has used it since the Queen ascended the throne, and the Regent has no habit of resting in the cubicle, after all, not everyone can use the imperial things.
"I..." Xuanyuan Chen endured the severe pain all over his body, and his face, which was pale due to heavy blood loss, looked a little confused. However, soon, the scenes before he fell into coma appeared in front of him, and his face suddenly changed in shock, " Someone stole the jade——"
"Xuanyuan Chen." Xie Jin's elegant and deep voice sounded, with a faint cold breath, "Did Xuanyuan Yan come here this morning?"
Xuanyuan Chen's expression changed, and his body froze instantly.
A groan sounded.
The palm print eunuch opened his eyes and climbed up with difficulty. He looked up and saw Xie Jin sitting in the chair. His expression paused for a moment, obviously he still hadn't realized where he was.
When he stood up from the ground, he clearly felt the sharp pain coming from his body. When he saw the blood on Xuanyuan Chen's body, he remembered what happened before, and... the jade seal disappeared from his hand!
His face immediately turned pale!
"Master Zhangyin seems to have remembered everything." Xie Jin smiled faintly, "Chu Nanyi's medical skills are indeed good, and he did not disappoint me."
Chu Nanyi curled his lips, raised his hands to move his wrists that were sluggish after working for more than two hours, bent down and rubbed his knees and calves, and then started to pack the silver needle medicine box.
"I'll leave this to you." Chu Nanyi said in a calm tone, "This quack doctor's mission has been completed. These two are fine. Have a good rest tonight, drink more water, and don't need to take medicine."
After a pause, his eyes fell on the palm print eunuch: "My father-in-law's injuries are more serious. Although they are not fatal, it is best to rest more in the next few days. After all, sword wounds are not minor, and the regent is not unreasonable." People will understand you."
The palm print eunuch's face was pale and he had lost his jade seal. It was too late to be frightened at this moment, so how could he have the heart to pity his own injuries?
Chu Nanyi turned around and walked out. However, as soon as he opened the door of the royal study, he saw King Wei and his wife coming in a hurry.
Um?
Chu Nanyi raised his eyebrows and looked back at Xie Jin: "The King of Wei and his wife are here to care about their son."
As soon as these words came out, Xie Jin's expression did not change, but Xuanyuan Chen's expression changed instantly.
"Close the door after you go out." Xie Jin ordered, "Ming Yan, no one is allowed to approach the imperial study."
Ming Yan was the man in black who was able to control everything. Although he didn't say anything after hearing this, he had already accepted Xie Jin's order.
"If Xuanyuanyan is threatening you not to speak out because of Concubine Qiao's safety, then I unfortunately tell you that if you don't tell the truth today, I will let you see Concubine Qiao's body early tomorrow morning."
If Xie Jin was like the sun when he protected Xuanyuan Chen and Concubine Qiao in the past, and his warmth made Xuanyuan Chen feel at ease and grateful for it, then Xie Jin when Qingpiao threatened to interrogate him now was like the smiling king of hell. , making people scared to the core, and deeply convinced that his threat is definitely more than just a threat.
The blood on Xuanyuan Chen's face instantly faded, becoming as pale as paper.
Xuanyuan Yao watched from the side and couldn't help but marvel.
Xie Fox is indeed Xie Fox. Not only is he good at catching clues, but he also knows how to grasp the opponent's seven-inch vital point. Without too many useless tricks, he can push someone to the edge of the cliff with just one move, leaving him with no other choice.
But apart from that, Xuanyuan Yao really admired him for being able to determine the identity of the person behind the theft of the jade seal calmly, and he was indeed a good candidate for future powerful ministers.
"Bold!" King Wei shouted angrily, "My king's son was seriously injured in an assassination, and I and the princess came to check on his injuries, but you dared to stop him? Which battalion of guards are you from? Let your superior come over !”
Ming Yan stood expressionless outside the imperial study, turning a deaf ear to King Wei's furious questioning.
In the imperial study, Xie Jin smiled casually: "I think the King of Wei and his wife are here to silence them. What do you think, Mr. Chen?"
Xuanyuan Chen was silent for a moment and had already adjusted his mentality.
"Nine masters are kind to you."
"No." Xie Jin raised his hand, "Although I used to put on airs in front of you, now that you and I are working in the imperial study and work for the regent, this kind of respect is no longer necessary. I just want your attitude."
Xuanyuan Chen nodded: "It's not Xuanyuan Yan. The person who snatched the jade seal was a masked man who was wearing the clothes of a palace servant and had practiced martial arts. He originally said that he wanted to use the jade seal on the order of the Supreme Emperor. When the palm master heard this, he subconsciously I was about to take out the jade seal to him, but I stopped him. Unexpectedly, the man suddenly got into trouble and struck me with my sword. "
Then the imperial study was in chaos.
The seal-holding eunuch saw the other party chopping with a sword, realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly wanted to hide the jade seal, but he didn't expect that the man was like crazy, slashing and stabbing at the two of them. The seal-holding eunuch was chased and slashed several times by the man because he had the jade seal in his hand, so he was injured more seriously.
Xuanyuan Chen got the chance, opened the door of the imperial study and shouted, but before the guards rushed in, he saw the seal-holding eunuch kicked to the ground, and the man snatched the jade seal and went to the inner room.
Xuanyuan Chen was about to chase him in a hurry, but he saw Xuanyuan Yan behind the screen in the inner room. When the masked man got the jade seal, Xuanyuan Yan looked at Xuanyuan Chen with cold eyes, as if he wanted to kill him, but soon there was a mess of footsteps outside, and the guards came hurriedly.
Xuanyuan Yan and the masked man did not dare to stay any longer, and turned around and left in a hurry.
Xuanyuan Chen wanted to shout, but he felt dizzy and then lost consciousness.
He was not very clear about what happened afterwards.
"So, Xuanyuan Yan and the masked man did not leave the imperial study, but escaped from the imperial study?" Xie Jin smiled faintly, "What about the guards who died outside?"
