The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

Chapter 692: Kill (1)

The next day, Song Jingchen and Shen Yijia entered the city as soon as the city gate opened.

When he returned home and changed his clothes, it was almost seven in the morning.

In the beginning, when he was investigating the girl’s case, in order to make it convenient for him to enter the palace at any time to report the progress of the case, the emperor gave him a token to enter the palace.

Later on, the remnants of the previous dynasty were implicated. Even though the Song family’s overturn of the case angered the emperor, the token was not taken back.

However, Song Jingchen was more inclined to believe that the emperor didn’t take back the token because he had forgotten about it.

After all, this was the first time he had used this token after so long.

The guards outside the palace gate had changed to a batch of people he didn’t recognize today. Song Jingchen pretended not to know.

The guard was stunned for a moment, as if he did not expect him to have a token. After confirming that it was real, he waved his hand and instructed someone to go forward and check. After confirming that he was not carrying a

weapon, he allowed him to enter.

From time to time, palace maids, eunuchs, or imperial guards would walk past the long palace path.

Their expressions were normal, and they did not panic at all.

“I heard that an assassin entered the palace yesterday?” he asked the eunuch who led the way.

The eunuch replied respectfully, “Yes, but the assassin has been captured.”

He was only in charge of leading the way and could not even go to his master, so he did not know much.

Song Jingchen nodded and didn’t speak again.

The eunuch sent him to the imperial study and left.

Song Jingchen asked to see the emperor, but he was told that the emperor hadn’t woken up yet, so he could only get someone to bring him to Yangxin Hall.

There was silence outside Yangxin Hall. There were only a few eunuchs guarding the door, not even the imperial guards.

When the eunuch guarding outside saw him, a trace of panic flashed across his eyes. He quickly went forward and bowed. “Greetings, Duke.”

Song Jingchen saw their expressions and frowned. “Is His Majesty awake? I have something urgent to discuss with him.”

The eunuch squeezed out a smile and said, “His Majesty rested late yesterday and hasn’t woken up yet. Why don’t you take a walk in the imperial garden first? When His Majesty wakes up, I’ll get someone to inform you immediately.”

Song Jingchen nodded. “Alright.”

After saying that, he suddenly thought of something and stopped in his tracks. He asked casually, “By the way, why didn’t I see Eunuch Deng and Eunuch Li today?”

The eunuch sighed. “Didn’t an assassin enter the palace yesterday? The two eunuchs were injured in order to save His Majesty. They’re still recuperating.” Song Jingchen understood and didn’t ask further.

He turned around and saw a familiar figure running towards him from afar.

When the person saw him, joy flashed across his eyes. Without waiting for

Song Jingchen to speak, he said anxiously, “Eldest Young Master, quickly save Miss. Miss was brought into Yangxin Hall by the emperor’s men and hasn’t come out yet.”

It was Su Yun, who had run out of the cold palace.

Song Jingchen’s heart sank. “What did you say? When did Aunt enter Yangxin Hans ”

“Last night, a few eunuchs went to Weiyang Palace to pick her up with the emperor’s decree. However, Miss hasn’t come out yet. I’m really worried about her,” Su Yun said in a panic.

Before she could finish, Song Jingchen had already strode towards Yangxin Hall’s bedroom.

A few eunuchs quickly ran over to stop him. “Duke, you can’t go in. Your Majesty is still resting.”

Song Jingchen said coldly, “Did His Majesty really summon my aunt last night?”

“This…” The eunuchs lowered their heads in panic and stammered.

“He was the one who brought people to pick up Miss last night,” Su Yun said as she pointed at the head eunuch.

The eunuch knelt down with a thud. “Duke, it’s His Majesty’s order. I don’t dare to disobey.”

Song Jingchen’s eyes were filled with killing intent. He walked around the eunuch and wanted to push the door open.

The leader of the eunuchs pounced on him and hugged his legs tightly. “Duke, you can’t. If you disturb His Majesty’s rest…”

Song Jingchen narrowed his eyes and kicked him away. He said coldly, “Get lost.”

The head eunuch spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted on the spot.

The remaining eunuchs looked at each other and did not dare to stop him.

Seeing this, Su Yun quickly ran up and pushed open the door. The moment the heavy hall door was pushed open, the thick smell of blood assaulted her senses.

Her face turned pale. She couldn’t care less and stumbled in.

When she saw the scene inside, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground. She looked at Song Li, who was lying among the concubines and covered in blood, in disbelief.

“M-Miss…”

Song Jingchen’s pupils constricted.

The emperor, who was sitting quietly in the middle of the corpses, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Song Jingchen sinisterly.

“Hahahaha… She’s dead. She’s finally dead. Wasn’t Father very satisfied with this woman? He even threatened me with the throne so that I’d agree to marry her. Since he likes her so much, I might as well send her down for Father to enjoy..”
