He hadn't expected something like this to happen while he wasn't at the residence.
Who would be so vicious as to hire assassins from the jianghu to assassinate The Emperor of Li's residence?
Yun Ruoyue was still in shock as she leaned into Chu Xuanchen's embrace. Fortunately, Xuanchen had returned in time, or else they would've lost their lives.
Who was it that wanted to kill the children?!
At this time, she said, "Your Highness, didn't you say you wouldn't be coming back tonight? Why are you back? "
Chu Xuanchen said, "The situation hasn't been very peaceful recently. Wang was worried about you being at home, so he rushed back after dealing with the military affairs. He didn't expect something to happen to you as soon as he came back. Fortunately, Wang came back, or else the consequences would've been unimaginable. "
Yun Ruoyue nodded uncomfortably.
At this time, she saw Fung take out a medicine box and hurriedly said, "Fung brought the medicine box over! Your Highness, you take care of the aftermath. I'll treat Xiao Die and Seventh Young Master's injuries. "
"Okay," Chu Xuanchen said.
After saying this, Yun Ruoyue hurriedly went forward to treat Xiao Die and Young Master Su's injuries.
Fortunately, the two had only suffered superficial wounds, so they were easy to treat.
Two hours later, Yun Ruoyue finally finished treating and bandaging the two's injuries.
Chu Xuanchen walked over to check on the two's injuries. Suddenly, he accidentally stepped on something soft.
Hearing a "quack" sound, he looked down in shock and found that there was a big white goose hiding on the ground.
He couldn't help but be startled. "What's going on? Why is there a goose here? "
Young Master Su hurriedly said, "Don't touch it. I spent a lot of money to buy it. Eating it can strengthen your body!"
After hearing this, the goose suddenly cried out at Young Master Su, wishing it could peck him until he was paralyzed.
Yun Ruoyue hurriedly said, "Seventh Young Master, when Nanfeng and I were in danger just now, the big white goose saved us. You mustn't eat it."
"Can't eat … goose …" Nan Feng also blurted out a few simple words.
Young Master Su glanced at the goose and held his chest in pain.
This was a goose that could prolong one's life. How could they not let him eat it?
Although he was very reluctant, he still said, "Alright then! Da Bai, you've done a great service today. Seeing as you've saved Nan Feng, I won't eat you, alright? "
Da Bai?
The big white goose was speechless when it heard that name.
Could this name be any more casual?
But this guy finally stopped eating it!
At least he still had some humanity!
Then, Yun Ruoyue ordered people to raise the big white goose in the backyard with Hanhan and Monkey.
Hanhan and Monkey rolled their eyes when they saw the big white goose being brought in.
Here comes another freeloader!

Ronghua Palace
"Your Highness, it's not good. The mission failed!" The empress was sitting in front of the incense burner with her eyes closed when she suddenly heard Qing Ying's voice.
She looked up and saw Qing Ying rushing in anxiously.
She hurriedly said, "What? The mission failed? "
Qing Ying anxiously nodded. "Yes, this servant found all the experts of the jianghu. They took advantage of the fact that The Emperor of Li wasn't home to go to The Emperor of Li's estate. Who knew that Young Master Su also went to The Emperor of Li's estate at that time. The Emperor of Li also had a servant girl who was very skilled in martial arts. With Young Master Su and this servant girl there, the assassins didn't touch the two children at all! "
"What? What are you doing? So many experts of the jianghu couldn't even kill two children? "The empress said angrily.
Qing Ying said, "Young Master Su and this servant girl were very difficult to deal with. Boss Liu's people fought with them many times but couldn't gain the upper hand. Later on, boss Liu sent more assassins and thought that they would definitely succeed. Who knew that The Emperor of Li would actually come back! The Emperor of Li brought a lot of people back and his people caught all of the assassins. The Emperor of Li also killed boss Liu with a sword. "
"Not only that, The Emperor of Li also sent people to bring all of the assassins to the Ministry of Justice to be executed!"
Hearing this, the empress was so angry that she knocked over the incense burner.
When faced with this kind of situation, it was useless no matter how much incense she smoked. Her heart couldn't calm down.
Her face was ashen as she said, "This group of trash. This empress paid such a high price for them to do something. Not only did they not succeed, they also lost themselves."
Saying this, she nervously said, "Qing Ying, they didn't sell this empress out, right?"
Qing Ying hurriedly shook her head. "Your Highness, don't worry. When this servant went to meet boss Liu, I used another identity. They didn't even know this servant's identity, so how could they know your Highness' identity? "
"Even if Chu Xuanchen pried open their teeth, he wouldn't be able to get a single word out of them!"
The empress was still in a state of shock as she nodded. "It's good that they didn't sell this empress out. Otherwise, with Chu Xuanchen's ruthlessness, who knows how he would retaliate against this empress."
Saying this, she suddenly said, "Qing Ying, the assassins you found this time are too useless! With their level, they dare to call themselves martial arts experts? They can't even deal with Young Master Su. Where did you find this group of good-for-nothings! "
When Qing Ying heard this, she guiltily blinked her eyes.
She didn't dare to tell the empress that she only found ordinary jianghu assassins in order to embezzle money.
If she found real experts, then she wouldn't be able to get anything out of it!
She hurriedly said, "Your Highness, don't blame the assassins for being useless. It's just that The Emperor of Li is too powerful! How about we find a group of even more powerful assassins and have them take action again? "
This way, she could fill her own pockets again!
The empress coldly waved her hand, "No! The assassination this time has already alerted the enemy. Chu Xuanchen will definitely strengthen the defenses of The Emperor of Li's residence. It won't be that easy to kill those two children! Let's temporarily stop the operation and talk about it later! "
"Oh, alright then!" Qing Ying frowned in disappointment.
Outside the hall, Chun Tao, who was cleaning the windows, had a shocked expression when she heard this.
She didn't think that the empress would send people to assassinate the little heir and the little royal princess.
It was a good thing that their plan didn't succeed.
It seemed like the prince didn't know that the empress was the mastermind behind the scenes. Then she had to quickly inform the prince.

At night, Chu Xuanchen received a messenger pigeon.
When he opened the letter and saw the contents, he immediately crumpled the letter into a ball.
He didn't think that these assassins were sent by the empress!
The empress wanted to get rid of Nan Feng and Xing 'er, so he would give her a taste of her own medicine and get rid of her son, Chu Tianyu.
Only by getting rid of Chu Tianyu could he truly deal a blow to the empress.
But before getting rid of Chu Tianyu, he had to first weaken the empress's power so that she wouldn't have the ability to protect Chu Tianyu.
Thinking of this, he picked up a pen and paper and quickly wrote a letter. Then he handed it to Mo Li and had Mo Li send this letter to Xue Tian Xiang.
Didn't the empress always want to catch him and Xue Tian Xiang?
Then he would beat her at her own game and bait the empress.
After writing the letter, Chu Xuanchen told Yun Ruoyue the matter.
When Yun Ruoyue found out that the empress had sent people to assassinate her children, her eyes lit up with a raging fire.
The empress dared to hurt her children, so she would also return an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. She definitely wouldn't let her children be hurt for nothing.
Soon, Xue Tian Xiang received Chu Xuanchen's reply.
Seeing the contents of the letter, she secretly nodded and decided to do as the prince said.
