King's Regrets
The Eps 78

Hearing if Xia Lian An did not die and the arrow only hit his left shoulder. Ruan Yi was very upset. The chance to kill Xia Lian An was in sight, but it failed.

"A killer is useless! If you know it's going to be like this, I'd better ask a servant in the palace to poison his food." Ruan Yi's.

Prahaang!

"Aakhhh! The s*alan woman. Why are you so lucky? Makes me hate you even more."

Ruan Yi's mother who heard the sound of a broken object immediately entered Ruan Yi's room. Some of the vases had already broken into pieces on the floor because they were thrown by Ruan Yi.

"Yi'er, what are you doing?" Ruan Yi's mother.

"Mother."

Ruan Yi immediately ran over and hugged his mother who had come over crying.

"The woman, she's not dead, mother." Ruan Yi's.

"Mom knows, you calm down. Right now the people in the palace are figuring out who's been ordering the hit man all over the city, so you need to calm down."

"A.... Did the killer tell you if... If we ask him to kill that woman?"

"If the killer had said so, then right now our family would have been dragged."

"I... That means, he died before saying it?"

"Yes, so you need to calm down. Don't make anyone suspect you."

"Good mother."

"Well, tomorrow we're going to the palace to see it."

"What's? We have to go to the palace to see that j*lang lady?"

"Listen to mother, your father is the brother of the emperor. Yesterday the crown prince had told everyone that the woman was his future empress, they would be suspicious of us if we did not go to the palace. Have you forgotten, in this country everyone knows that you used to say that you would be their queen."

Ruan Yi was silent, he really did not want to go to the palace and see Xia Lian An. But what her mother said was true, and she certainly did not want to if people knew that her family had already tried to kill Xia Lian An.

"Well, I'll obey you."

"Good boy. Everything will be fine, you don't show your hatred for that woman in front of your uncles, aunts and crown prince."

"Yes mom, I understand."

"That's great."

This time the Ruan family had to pretend not to know what had happened to Xia Lian An, in order for crown prince Zhang, the emperor and the queen not to be suspicious of him.

But alas, Ruan's family did not know that the assassin had already said their first surname, although it was incomplete because he had died of poisoning.

Only, in Ming country there is no family that has a surname with the word 'Ru' other than the Ruan Yi family. And it made the emperor exert all he needed to search for evidence and witnesses, for the chief witness had died in front of the crown princes Zhang and Min'er before saying in full the man who had sent him.

Inside the palace, Xia Lian An's condition had already started to improve. Right now he was sitting and beside him was Xiao Wei who was feeding Xia Lian An a warm porridge.

" How are you doing now, is there any other part of your body that hurts?" Said Min'er who saw her brother in the bribe by Xiao Wei.

Xia Lian An shook her head "No, the healer has already given me a very good medicine. The wound doesn't hurt much anymore."

"Good then, I was really very worried when I saw so much blood coming out of my sister's shoulder."

"Sorry to worry you all."

"Sister, yesterday when the man who shot brother was caught. He had said the name of one family before he died of poisoning."

"Family name?"

Min'er nodded "Yes, but only her surname. And that was just the word 'Ru' she had time to say."

"Price Ru....?"

"True, her highness the queen said it was the surname of the Ruan family. In this country there is only one family with Ru's vanguard surname, Ruan."

"Ru's? Ruan..... Ruan Yi's." Xia Lian An looked at Min'er.

"But I don't have a problem with him."

"Sister, that woman had already liked the crown prince's noble a long time ago, and of course she couldn't accept that the person she liked would marry another woman. Especially if what he likes is the emperor of the next country."

"So I guess after facing concubine Ning, it would no longer face such an ambitious woman against a position within the palace. It almost died before it."

"Sister take it easy, his highness the emperor and his highness the crown prince will do their best to punish them. But...."

Xia Lian An looked at her sister and smiled, she knew how the nature of her sister who would not let the person who had already injured her live quietly.

"You want to reply in your own way?" Guess Xia Lian An.

Min'er looked at her brother in surprise, she did not expect that what she was thinking could be guessed correctly by her brother.

"Miss Ruan Yi is the noble niece of the emperor and his highness the queen, if you want to avenge him can only set a trap for him. Because you won't be able to directly hurt let alone kill him."

"Sister, do you have a plan?"

Xia Lian An shook her head "Right now I don't know what we should do, but wait until my hands improve."

"Miss, what if we trap her the way concubine Ning used to time wanted to trap miss." Xiao Wei spoke up.

"Concubine Ning ever wanted to frame sister?" Ask Min'er.

"Right young master, it used to be that concubine Ning wanted to trap the miss with a letter. I know that because I have a friend who works to serve concubine Ning first, and she is a person who really likes miss. So she told me the plan that concubine Ning said, so that when a servant placed the letter in the lady's room secretly, I read and burned the letter before miss read it."

"You really have saved me so many times, Xiao Wei." Xia Lian An.

"Then, what did concubine Ning write in the letter?" Ask Min'er.

"What I remember in the letter, is that the noble emperor Shun wanted to meet the miss in the westernmost palace."

"The most ember palace? Isn't that a very rare palace to wear?" Xia Lian An.

"Right lady, back then lady still loved her majesty the emperor. So if she reads the letter, she must be very happy and unsuspecting to come to the westernmost palace."

Xia Lian An was speechless "It is only fitting that I cannot remember the incident in the memory of the original body owner. It turned out that he was saved by Xiao Wei."

"Then do you know what's in the westernmost palace?" Ask Min'er again.

"I paid someone to go to the westernmost palace to find out what was there. And it turns out there....."

"What's there?"

"There was concubine Ning and several royal ministers. There were also a few men standing beside the palace warehouse."

"Royal minister?"

"True young master."

"If the royal minister were also there, it was likely that what they were doing was already known to the emperor's highness Shun, and he let it be." Xia Lian An.

"I also think that way, Miss. Because after knowing that the lady did not come to the westernmost palace, the noble emperor was furious. Because it's your highness....."

"I know next, because after that I lived in Ju's palace that time."

"True miss, the reason the Qing prime minister made trouble in the palace was only a lie made by his highness the emperor. So that the emperor's majesty could beat the lady viciously. I heard that the emperor's majesty did not go anywhere, nor did she meet anyone that day, so I knew that his highness the emperor had lied to miss."

Xia Lian An clenched her hand "*It shouldn't be just her deformed hand, but she deserves to die for so much of Qing Lian*'s ignorance*."

Min'er didn't expect Emperor Shun to do much just to make her brother leave the palace.

"She did many things to expel me from the palace, so I can't wait to visit her together with master Jiang after I become the empress of this Ming country later." Xia Lian An.

"Sister."

"Sister can't be silent to hear a truth you never knew, Min'er. Brother wanted to tell him, if the person he didn't want to have become a very valuable jade for others. And he'll never touch her again."

Min'er nodded, she understood what her brother said. Emperor Shun had never seen his brother, and he never even considered his brother to be in the palace.

And when feelings filled with regret appeared on emperor Shun, it would be very painful to see Xia Lian An come to the palace as the empress of another country. That was the vengeance of a heart that had been wounded, and turned into hate on someone that Xia Lian An had once loved so much.
