After the princess was reborn, she kissed the ruthless kidnapper

Chapter 244 "Ah! Your Majesty... You hurt me..."

After dinner, Jiang Ci'an embraced Shen Changle and lay on the bed. Seeing that she was drowsy, he gently touched her nose.

"Are you asleep, Changle?"

"Well, what's wrong..."

Jiang Ci'an listened to her sleepy moans, tilted his head and kissed her forehead.

The smiling eyes sparkled with contentment.

In addition, there is a little sense of security.

It’s great that Changle responds every time I call her!

She really came back to him, how nice...

Gently smoothing her hair, he wanted to tell her the good news, but he was afraid that she would be too excited and would not be able to sleep well at night.

So I decided to tell her tomorrow.

He smiled dotingly, his tone full of attachment.

"Go to sleep. You will have a rest tomorrow. No need to get up too early."

"Um……"

Shen Changle snuggled into his arms, changed her position, and slept soundly.

Jiang Ci'an patted her, listened to her steady breathing, and soon fell asleep...

The next day, before dawn, Jiang Ci'an was called to attend the morning court.

He yawned tiredly, tilted his head and saw Shen Changle rubbing his eyes, and all his bad mood disappeared.

Lowering his voice, he coaxed:

"Changle, I have nothing to do today, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"Well, let me help you change."

"No need, no need, go to sleep, dear..."

He patted Shen Changle and saw that she fell asleep again. Then he kissed her forehead and got out of bed quietly.

After coming out of the outer hall, he began to get dressed and asked the eunuchs about what happened last night.

"In the early hours of this morning, I faintly heard the sound of orchestral music. What's going on?"

The eunuch knelt down to help Jiang Ci'an dress. Seeing that he took the initiative to ask, he kowtowed and answered:

"Your Majesty, this morning a new musician entered the palace and was practicing the pipa in the peach forest."

"Oh? Practice all night?"

"Yes, starting from the hour of Yin."

Jiang Ci'an sneered, brushed his clothes lightly, and strode out.

"Let's go and meet this hardworking musician."

Such tricks have been common since he ascended the throne.

He really couldn't figure it out!

He was clearly killing everyone he saw, so why did some people still insist on running into the blade?

However, since she wanted to die, he would naturally grant her wish...

I took a detour and came to the peach forest. Sure enough, I saw a graceful woman among the falling petals and the dawn glow.

Her gaze is charming and her eyes express her feelings.

Jiang Ci'an chuckled and tilted his head with interest.

"Aren't you cold with such heavy dew?"

The sound of the pipa suddenly stopped, and the woman looked frightened and turned over and knelt down.

"See Your Majesty."

"Get up."

He did not move forward, but stopped outside the peach forest and looked at her carefully decorated silver wine cup.

I chuckled in my heart.

I really went to great lengths to get his attention...

The woman stood up and nodded shyly.

"Your Majesty, are you going to the morning court? Peach Forest... is not the only way to get there."

"Oh, yes... I came here specially to see who is playing the piano and singing here so early in the morning."

The woman seemed to be caught off guard and took a half step back in surprise. Her pretty eyes trembled slightly as she exclaimed softly:

"Did I disturb your majesty's sweet dream?"

As he said this, he poured a glass of crystal clear fruit wine and handed it to Jiang Ci'an.

"I offer my apology to Your Majesty. This wine is brewed by me. Please enjoy it, Your Majesty..."

She smiled with determination, her eyes sparkling.

Jiang Ci'an glanced at the wine glass in her hand indifferently.

He stopped the eunuch from coming forward with his eyes and raised his hand himself.

However, just when everyone thought Jiang Ci'an was going to take the wine glass, his hand went over the wine glass and grabbed the Pipa girl's wrist.

"Ah! Your Majesty...you hurt me..."

The Pipa girl exclaimed in surprise, still pretending to act coquettishly.

Jiang Ci'an curled his lips indifferently, exerted a little force with his hand, and forced out the dagger hidden in the woman's sleeve.

He pulled out the dagger and slashed it straight at the woman's slender neck.

The woman no longer pretended and rolled forward to break free from Jiang Ci'an's hands.

She pulled out a broken blade from under her skirt and attacked Jiang Ci'an:

"You tyrant who takes human life lightly! Die!"

The eunuchs and guards who followed him finally reacted and screamed:

"There's an assassin, protect the emperor!"

Jiang Ci'an didn't need his guards to take action at all. He took a step back to avoid the Pipa girl's fatal move and pinned her under him with just one move.

"So, which wronged soul are you seeking revenge for?"

When Jiang Ci'an mentioned his sister who died tragically on the city wall, the Pipa girl became more resentful.

He turned around, twisted his wrist, and struggled to break free from Jiang Ci'an's restraints.

The raised broken blade was about to cut through Jiang Ci'an's sleeve and scratched his upper arm.

Jiang Ci'an was not panicked. He kicked her in the knee, pressed the back of her head, and forced her to kneel on the ground.

"Say!"

The Pipa girl struggled to escape, and finally complained in tears:

"You bastard emperor, the female musician you brutally hanged on the city wall two years ago was my own sister!"

The panicked eunuch straightened his crown and stepped forward in shock.

Seeing the guards taking the man under control, he hurriedly supported Jiang Ci'an and exclaimed:

"Ah, Your Majesty, you, you are injured, hurry, hurry up! Call the imperial physician!"

Jiang Ci'an stopped him sternly:

"Don't make any noise. If you disturb the Queen, I will hold you responsible."

The eunuch then hurriedly covered his mouth and heard Jiang Ci'an ask:

"The musician she mentioned... do you have any impression of him?"

The eunuch nodded repeatedly, but didn't know whether he should speak or not, so he covered his mouth and whimpered.

Jiang Ci'an frowned.

"Say!"

"Huh, huh..."

The eunuch took two deep breaths before speaking.

"Two years ago, Your Majesty did hang a female musician who was trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful. She took advantage of Your Majesty's drunkenness and helped him undress. That's why..."

"Don't talk nonsense! My sister would never do such a thing! Don't try to confuse right and wrong and insult my sister's reputation!"

When the eunuch heard the Pipa girl say this, he also became interested.

Holding the whisk, he walked over in small steps, gave her a soft kick, and retorted in a shrill voice:

"My memory can't be wrong! The female musician who was hanged was just trying to get close to someone powerful. How could I have wrongly accused her?"

"You're talking nonsense! You're throwing dirty water on my sister, making her restless even after death..."

The quarrel between the two gave Jiang Ci'an a headache.

He held his forehead and scolded in a deep voice:

"stop fighting!"

He glanced at the woman again and said lightly:

"Send her to see her sister. Also, check if she has any accomplices. We must ensure the safety of the Queen and the Crown Prince."

"Yes!"

The guards all responded in unison, while the Pipa Girl continued to curse loudly:

"You dog emperor, you take human life lightly, you will not die a good death—"

Seeing Jiang Ci'an's cold eyes, the eunuch quickly turned around and hissed:

"Why don't you shut her up? If you disturb the Queen's sweet sleep, we...we will hold you accountable!"

"Yes."

The guards took the order, covered the Pipa girl's mouth, and dragged her away.

Seeing Jiang Ci'an heading straight for the Golden Palace, the eunuch whispered to him:

"Your Majesty, shall we return to the chambers and bandage ourselves first?"

"No need, ask the imperial physician to go directly to the main hall."

He turned around again and gave a solemn warning:

"Today's assassination is forbidden to be spread outside! If it causes the Empress to worry, I will chop off your heads!"

The eunuch shrank his neck and nodded quickly.

"Yes, yes, I understand..."
