Huaimo walked to Jia Ling's bed and saw that Jia Ling was still wearing a bright red wedding robe. Before she could change it, the sleeve of her left arm had been torn off and was now wrapped in thick gauze.

Her face looked even paler in contrast to the red color. She closed her eyes tightly and frowned, obviously in extreme pain.

Huai Mo was furious and asked coldly, "Where is Mrs. Cen?"

The doctors in the room were all palace doctors. After Jia Ling's accident, Fu Ze Bo Qin saw the seriousness of the situation and immediately returned to the palace to report it. Emperor Wen sent the imperial doctor here.

At this time, one of the imperial doctors replied, "Back to the Prime Minister, Eunuch Fuze has captured Mrs. Cen and sent her to the palace."

Huai Mo snorted coldly and took Jia Ling's pulse himself. Then he said coldly, "Thank you for your hard work, all the imperial doctors. You can return to the palace now. Lin" [

"This..." The imperial doctor looked at Jia Ling on the bed hesitantly. This person was still unconscious. How could they be revived?

"The princess is now my wife, how many imperial doctors still can't trust Huai Mo?"

"I don't dare, I don't dare." Several imperial doctors were shuddered and hurriedly bowed to Huai Mo and said goodbye, "I'm going to leave."

After the imperial doctor left, Huai Mo dismissed the servants again. Only Jia Ling and Huai Mo were left in the room. Huai Mo stood by the bed with his hands folded and said coldly, "Come out!"

There was a slight noise in the cabinet in the corner, and then, a person walked out slowly. It was Xiaobai who Hua Yueru said had disappeared early in the morning.

"Master..." Xiaobai lowered his head and called out in a timid tone.

At this moment, Jia Ling, who had been unconscious on the bed, slowly opened her eyes. Seeing Huai Mo, she forced a smile, a little weak, "Are you back?"

Huaimo looked at Jia Ling calmly, "Yeah."

After that, he slowly sat down in front of Jia Ling's bed and said warmly, "Actually, you don't have to hurt yourself to save her, just hand her over."

When Huai Mo said "hand her over," his eyes suddenly shot coldly at Xiao Bai. Xiao Bai shuddered and lowered his head silently.

Jia Ling shook her head, "I'm not saving her, I'm protecting the Prime Minister's Mansion. Now that you and I are husband and wife, I naturally have to put the overall situation first."

Huai Mo looked down at Jia Ling, his eyes dark and emotionless.

After a while, Huaimo asked Xiaobai coldly, "What's going on?"

Xiaobai knew he had made a mistake first and did not dare to hide it, so he confessed, "I just sneaked back to the Prime Minister's Mansion last night when I saw Zhang Jushi sneaking away from the front hall and into the backyard. I was afraid that he had evil intentions, so I followed him all the way.

Then a man in black appeared. After they met, Zhang Jushi said nothing but handed a note to the man.

The man in black took it and pierced Zhang Jushi's heart with his sword. Seeing that Zhang Jushi was still breathing, I wanted to step forward to find out the situation. Unexpectedly, before Zhang Jushi could speak, there was suddenly a bright light around him.

, shouting, "He's a murderer." I felt bad and ran away immediately, but I couldn't get rid of Mrs. Cen. Mrs. Cen followed me all the way to the new house..."

Xiao Bai paused and then said, "Mrs. Cen wanted to search, but the princess refused. After many arguments, Mrs. Cen hurt the princess."

Xiaobai said and knelt down suddenly, "Xiaobai thanks the princess for saving her life, please punish me."

Huai Mo snorted coldly, "You are the cause of your own trouble. This game was not designed for you, but you decided to seek death. Your death was not a pity, but it hurt Jia Ling."

"Xiaobai admits his guilt."

"Okay, don't blame Xiaobai anymore. Even without her, I would have hurt myself. If you weren't here last night, if I wasn't hurt, the situation could not be controlled. If people knew you were not in the house, the consequences would be disastrous."[

Hearing this, Huai Mo's eyes flashed sharply, "Do you know I'm not here?"

Jia Ling smiled and shook her head frankly, "I didn't know you were not here, but my people discovered that Shen Zui and her maid had arrived in the capital. I thought that if Shen Zui showed up, you would definitely go there. Afterwards, there was a big assassination in the mansion, and Cen and I

Too struggling, my servants went to invite you, but I heard that you chased the assassin out of the house, and I became more sure. Then

Shi Fuze and Bo Qin also came over. I was afraid that Mrs. Cen would make a big fuss again and the situation would get out of hand, so I let him accidentally hurt me. Fortunately, they were still wary of me. Because of my injury, all the attention

Then he turned to my injury. But I guess that the purpose of the messenger is not simple. Huaimo, are you okay?"

Jia Ling spoke with concern. Huai Mo paused and said slowly, "That person's purpose is indeed not simple. I'm fine. Fortunately, you are in the Prime Minister's house. I am sorry for you and I owe you."

Jia Ling smiled and said, "You and I are now in the same boat. We are both prosperous and devastated. If I help you, I am helping myself. There is no need to say these words again."

Huaimo looked at Jia Ling's face, nodded lightly, and said to Xiaobai, "Go and get my medicine box."

Xiaobai was about to go back, but Jia Ling said, "No need, the injury on the arm is just a minor injury, I won't hide it from you. You and I are both people in the whirlpool of power, these flesh wounds are nothing new.

I am weak because I took the medicine myself, rest for a while, wake up and take the antidote and then everything will be fine."

"Okay, then you have a good rest and I will come see you later."

Jia Ling nodded.

Huai Mo glanced at Xiao Bai coldly, then walked away, "Follow me!"

Xiaobai followed Huaimo to the study room, and when no one was outside, Xiaobai knelt down with a pop, "Xiaobai caused me to owe the princess a favor. Xiaobai realizes his crime and asks me to punish him!"

Huai Mo said coldly, "Honestly, what is going on?"

Xiaobai smiled bitterly, "I really can't hide anything from you. I'm afraid that if you really consummate your marriage with the princess, Shen Zui won't forgive you... So, I stayed outside the new house last night and waited for most of the night without seeing you.

It was Bo Qin who came over. I felt relieved and wanted to retreat, but I bumped into Zhang Jushi and the man in black in the backyard. Before Zhang Jushi died, he said two words... King Jing."

Hearing this, Huai Mo sneered, "I knew it was him a long time ago. He keeps a low profile and is very thoughtful. If anyone could have discovered my absence last night, he wouldn't have thought twice about it. He instructed Zhang Jushi to inform the prince's people.

I borrowed a knife to kill Zhang Jushi, but in fact I wanted to kill two birds with one stone and get rid of me and the prince at the same time."

"Then princess?"

Huai Mo said resolutely, "She is lying. Shen drunkenly changed her appearance, and even my people couldn't recognize her. In the end, it was Hua Yueru's people who came to retaliate, let alone the Nanzhao people?"

"But how did she know you were not here?"

Huai Mo's eyes darkened and he didn't speak. For a long time, he suddenly asked, "Were there any secret guards guarding the new house last night?"

Xiaobai hesitated, "No."

Huai Mo's face suddenly darkened, and Xiao Bai hurriedly said, "You removed it yourself. Since you married Shen Zui, no outsiders are allowed to approach the main courtyard... to disturb you."

After hearing this, Huai Mo thought of the past and all the crazy love he had indulged in in the room. He felt a little unnatural and said calmly, "Send someone to keep an eye on her and report to me everyone she met."

"What do you mean...?"

"Jia Ling has most likely bribed my people."[

Xiaobai was surprised, "How is that possible? All of my people are loyal."

The corners of Huaimo's lips curled up coldly, "That's not necessarily true. Someone must have tipped off Jia Ling last night so that she could use the opportunity to win over me with favors."

"But even I didn't know you were not in the house last night."

"That's why it's even more terrifying. There is such a powerful person hiding next to me. He can know my movements in a moment. I must not leave him alone. I must find this person."

Xiao Bai winced and nodded, "Yes."

"And..." Huaimo stopped Xiaobai and slowly returned to the bookshelf, taking out a wooden box from a row of books.

Xiao Bai thought it was something mysterious and held his breath. However, he didn't expect that Huai Mo opened the wooden box, and a bright red light suddenly shot out from inside. Xiao Bai looked closely and saw that there was actually a star inside

A ruby ​​the size of a pigeon egg, the gem is different from ordinary gems. Its color is deep red and magnificent, comparable to blood.

Xiaobai suddenly remembered that a year ago, the small fish kingdoms in the south paid tribute to a pigeon's blood ruby, claiming to be the only one in the world. Emperor Wen later gave the ruby ​​to Huaimo...

Huaimo closed the wooden box again and handed it to her, "Take it to Pinggu and ask him to inlay it into a golden hairpin."

Xiao Bai didn't expect that Huai Mo would keep this thing. She thought she had given it to Chen Yu... Xiao Bai was secretly happy that Huai Mo was not confused at times. She took it with a smile and asked, "After it is inlaid,

Should I give it directly to Shen Zui, or should I give it to you personally?"

Huai Mo's face tightened and he asked coldly, "What do you think?"

Xiao Bai pretended not to understand, "Yes, Xiao Bai understands, just give it to Shen Zui directly after embedding it."

Huai Mo looked at her coldly, "Are you sure? Unless the person who gave her something is me, whoever gives it to her will be killed."

Xiaobai stuck out his tongue and smiled slyly, "Xiaobai is just chatting and joking with me, so of course he doesn't dare. Even if I want Xiaobai to send him off, Xiaobai won't go."

Huai Mo raised his eyebrows, "Why?"

"If Shenzui gets excited and feels that he has not been rewarded for his merits, he will force himself to pay with his body..."

Xiaobai spoke in a long and meaningful way, but before he could finish speaking, he ran away again.
