Chapter 234 Entering the palace in the middle of the night

"What's the matter?!"

Ye Qi's voice sounded somewhat dissatisfied.

There were thunder and lightning in the sky from time to time. The weather was not good now and there were signs of rain at any time. It was almost midnight and there were unsafe factors everywhere. He was a hundred percent unwilling to let Xin'er enter the palace under such circumstances.

"Go open the door first. There must be something urgent to send an edict in the middle of the night!"

Bai Xin was also shocked and had a bad premonition.

Ye Qi pursed his lips, gently let go of Bai Xin, and reluctantly got up to open the door.

"The angel is waiting in the front hall, and seems very anxious. I heard that the eldest prince was frightened!"

When Mo Tian saw Ye Qi coming out, he quickly bowed.

"what?!"

Bai Xin jumped in fright at that moment. She was most worried about Dabao. Dabao was timid and easily frightened, so she hoped that nothing would happen to him.

"Don't worry, go to the front hall first!"

Seeing her so anxious, Ye Qi hurried forward to support her. He helped her put on her cloak, went out and called Li Ze, and the four of them hurried to the front hall.

"Hello, General. Hello, Madam!"

A eunuch saw them coming out, bowed anxiously and then said.

"Madam, please follow me to the palace. The eldest prince is suffering from convulsions. The imperial concubine has sent me to invite you to the palace to treat him!"

"Frightened and having convulsions?!" Bai Xin's heart skipped a beat and his face turned pale. What kind of shock would cause Dabao to have convulsions?

"Then I will follow the angel quickly!" Bai Xin said quickly.

"I'll go with you!" Ye Qi held her hand and comforted her.

"Call four girls, take rifles, and we'll go together!"

Ye Qi turned around and gave instructions to Mo Tian.

"General, just take Min'er with you. It's inappropriate to bring so many people into the palace late at night, right?"

Bai Xin regained some composure and said.

"I will bring my wife to the palace. The general does not need to go with his wife at this late hour!"

At this time, the eunuch also bowed and said.

After hearing what he said, Ye Qi looked at him in confusion for a moment.

"Where did the angel work before? He looks unfamiliar."

"General, you are very busy with official duties and don't come to the palace often. You may not be familiar with me. I have been serving in Lihe Palace since I entered the palace, but my position is relatively low. Today, Eunuch Liu and his men have to serve Concubine Wei. The Third Prince and the Sixth Princess are busy, so they can only lead me to come and invite Madam!"

After saying that, he handed Eunuch Liu's business trip token to Ye Qi.

Ye Qi picked it up and took a look at it, then looked at the person in front of him with a scrutinizing gaze. The token was indeed from Li Hegong, but he had no impression of this person, so it was difficult to be sure.

Seeing this, Bai Xin walked forward, gently pulled Ye Qi, and then spoke to the eunuch.

"The dew is heavy late at night, and the general is worried about me, so he wants to go with me. In addition, the eldest prince is also the general's nephew, and he can help take care of me. Concubine Wei loves the general so much, I'm sure she won't blame him for offending me late at night!"

"In that case, let's set off as soon as possible. I'm afraid the eldest prince can't wait any longer!"

The eunuch thought about it, then agreed and urged.

The group got on the carriage and drove hurriedly to the palace.

"My aunt would never refuse me to go to the palace with you, but this little eunuch doesn't know that!"

Ye Qi's eyes were tinged with color and he said coldly, "Could something have happened in the palace?"

"You won't know until you enter the palace!"

Bai Xin slightly lifted the curtain and saw the messengers walking in front and behind their carriage. He gently lowered the curtain and spoke in a low voice.

"Since it's Dabao's problem, maybe they were all panicked and sent a eunuch who doesn't often serve them to pass on the imperial edict!"

Bai Xin was anxious and her voice was trembling.

"Well, don't worry, you will know after entering the palace!"

Ye Qi hugged her and comforted her. Seeing that she was anxious and restless, he was actually very worried.

Ever since he knew Xin'er was pregnant, he had an inexplicable sympathy for the child, but he couldn't act rashly, otherwise, Xin'er would become even more anxious.

"General, Madam! There are many princes and nobles coming and going in the palace today, so our guards can only wait inside the Meridian Gate. Please forgive us, both of you."

The carriage suddenly stopped, and the eunuch's slightly shrill voice was heard from outside the carriage.

Ye Qi and Bai Xin were confused for a moment, but when they lifted the curtain and took a look, they saw that there were indeed many guards of princes and nobles waiting in the square, including Reggie. They could only follow his orders and leave Li Zemotian and the rifle in the palace square.

"These girls know a little bit about medicine, let them follow me!"

Bai Xin thought that since the four maids were her female relatives, it would be more appropriate for them to stay with her, not to mention that these maids had already been her right-hand men.

"In that case, General and Madam, please speed up a bit. The eldest prince must be getting anxious waiting for you."

The eunuch spoke respectfully, with a hint of urging in his words.

Since they were inside the palace and could no longer ride in the carriage, Bai Xin, Ye Qi and the others followed the eunuch and walked quickly into the palace.

It was a cold winter night, and there had just been a winter thunder. Although it had not rained, the sky was cloudy and foggy. The lights in the corridor were dim, and the red walls were so majestic that it seemed as if the top could not be seen. The entire corridor seemed deep and quiet.

"The palace is so quiet in the middle of the night!"

Bai Xin said tentatively.

The maids also found it terrifyingly quiet. Although they did not dare to look around, they lowered their heads slightly to glance a few times, and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

"Yes, there is a curfew in the palace. Unless it is a special situation, no one will move around at this time!"

"But tonight everyone should go to Zhaohua Hall to pray for the eldest and youngest princes and wait for His Majesty to give them names, because the palace is more lively tonight."

The eunuch who was leading the way in front bowed and said quietly.

Ye Qi said nothing, but he ignored the palace etiquette and just held Bai Xin's hand tightly, letting her watch him as she walked close to his side. He smelled something unusual, so it was better to be cautious no matter what.

"So, now I am not going to Lihe Palace, but Zhaohua Hall?"

Bai Xin continued to ask, and she held Ye Qi's hand tightly, indicating that she would pay attention and told him not to worry.

Because even when Bai Xin and his friends entered the palace, they usually only went to Lihe Palace, so they were not very clear about which roads in the palace led to which places. Therefore, they followed the eunuchs through a door on the left, then a door on the right, and took a long detour before stopping in front of a palace gate.

"General, Madam, please wait here. I will go in and interpret the message."

The eunuch turned slightly and bowed to Bai Xinhe and Ye Qi and said.

"Thank you, angel!"

Ye Qi didn't say anything, but Bai Xin nodded slightly in response. Several people watched him walk into the palace gate and waited quietly outside the door.

"The palace at night is really dark and scary!"

Bai Xin leaned towards Ye Qi and said, the two corridors in front of the door were pitch black as far as the eye could see, and inside the courtyard one could only see a dark empty space and a tightly closed door in a room in the distance. It was not that he was afraid of metaphysics, but what he was afraid of was the sudden appearance of metaphysics.

"Well, I'm here, don't be afraid!"

Ye Qi looked at her in the light and comforted her, then pulled his cloak over her and held her around him.
