Regent, the princess you found is a treasure

Xuan Moyin's face changed drastically, and he rushed forward anxiously, wanting to find out what was happening. When he approached the two men, his heart sank.

The two men were as pale as paper, bloodless, with black blood flowing from the corners of their mouths, their eyes were tightly closed, and there was no sign of breathing. Obviously, they had died.

"They are assassins." Xuan Moyin stared at Pei Yuan solemnly and said in a low voice. These people were willing to sacrifice their lives to keep the secret. When they realized that the truth was about to be revealed, they resolutely crushed the poisonous pill hidden in their teeth and chose to end their lives.

Hearing the word "death warriors", Su Luoxue couldn't help but frown. She knew that anyone who could have such loyal and well-trained death warriors must be of extraordinary status. The Jishengtang she opened has always been committed to treating people for free. What kind of powerful people would make an enemy of her?

Xuan Moyin seemed to understand Su Luoxue's inner worries. He comforted her softly, "Don't worry. I will investigate this matter thoroughly."

At this time, Pei Yuan also stood up and announced the preliminary investigation results to everyone, and promised to give everyone an explanation to appease the people. Then, he ordered his men to bring the three bodies back to Jingzhao Prefecture for further in-depth investigation.

Since Xuan Moyin did not disguise himself today and could not stay here all the time, he took the guards back to the Regent's Palace. Before leaving, he instructed the guards who stayed behind to protect Su Luoxue's safety.

The onlookers lined up again. They were indignant for Su Luoxue because the two people had just framed Jishengtang and the miracle doctor, but it also made them trust Su Luoxue more. The miracle doctor was framed by others because he treated the poor people who could not afford to see a doctor. Now, Su Luoxue was more respected in their hearts. If anyone dared to say a bad word about the miracle doctor in front of them, these people would tear his mouth to pieces.

At this moment, the Yanchun Palace where the Queen lived was silent, except for the Queen's anxious gaze fixed on the Prince who kept pacing around. Finally, she couldn't help but say, "Hao'er, please sit down first. There is no benefit in being so anxious. In fact, your mother is also extremely anxious!"

However, Crown Prince Xuan Haotian seemed not to have heard what his mother said, and he continued to mutter to himself: "Mother, what disease does father have? Why is the imperial physician not allowed to go and treat him? Now we father and son are not allowed to meet, and even you, mother, are treated so coldly and turned away from the door?" His words were full of confusion and worry.

Seeing this, the Queen couldn't help but sigh and responded helplessly: "The current situation is confusing and it's hard to get even a glimmer of news. It's even worse today. The gates of Yuhan Palace are closed. Only people from the Imperial Kitchen are allowed to enter to deliver meals. Others are prohibited from entering or leaving. This situation is rare and has never happened before! What exactly caused this incident is really puzzling."

The more Xuan Haotian thought about it, the more worried he became. He frowned and said to the queen, "Mother, the emperor's uncle has been in charge of the court these days. If father fails to show up, I'm really worried that the court will become the emperor's uncle's property in the future!" His words revealed deep worry and uneasiness.

"Ah." The queen sighed heavily, "You should go back first. Mother has a headache and wants to rest."

"Yes, I will take my leave." Xuan Haotian immediately said goodbye and left. After leaving Yanchun Palace, he whispered to the eunuch beside him: "Send someone to check what happened to the emperor in Yuhan Palace?"

In Yuhan Palace, Concubine Rou felt miserable. In the past, all the concubines competed for the emperor's favor, and she looked forward to the emperor coming to her palace every day, even though she was already favored. The emperor came to the harem about fifteen or six times a month, and she came three times. The empress came to the palace twice on the first and fifteenth day of each month, and the imperial concubine and other concubines came, but she still felt it was not enough and wished that the emperor would come every day.

But now, she wished the emperor would leave quickly. She didn't want to see the emperor's face with the big words written on it. That was a face that could kill her and the third prince at any time. Who was the daring person who ran to the palace to write those three words on the emperor's face? He would rather die than implicate her, okay?

But she couldn't show it yet, and had to serve the emperor cautiously and fearfully.

"Your Majesty, please enjoy your meal." Eunuch Jiang went to the door and placed the food brought by the palace servants on the table one by one. He bent over and spoke without daring to look up.

Xuan Jingyu walked to the table and looked at the delicious food. He had no appetite at all. Today was the third day. The big words on his face could not be washed off. He had no idea what to do. He was upset! Was he going to stay in this palace for the rest of his life? Could he go nowhere? Could he see anyone?

The court is now presided over by the Regent Xuan Moyin. All along, the person he feared the most and wanted to get rid of the most was Xuan Moyin. Now, does he have to watch the court fall into Xuan Moyin's hands?

The more Xuan Jingyu thought about it, the more anxious he became, and the angrier he became. It had been several days, and the Imperial Guards and the Ministry of Internal Affairs had not found any clues. He had been very confident that the palace was guarded by the Imperial Guards and the secret guards like an airtight iron barrel, and not even a fly could fly out.

But now, he was severely slapped in the face. Not only was his private vault stolen without a sound, but even the palace where he rested was heavily guarded, but the bad guys came and went as if they were walking on the street. They even wrote big curse words on his face to humiliate him.

When Xuan Jingyu thought of this, he threw the chopsticks in his hand away. Concubine Rou and Eunuch Jiang quickly knelt down. The emperor was always angry and throwing things these past two days, so they just knelt there and didn't say anything.

Xuan Jingyu slowly stood up from his seat and walked towards the exquisite dressing table with steady steps. He stared at the bronze mirror in front of him quietly, carefully examining his face. Suddenly, he noticed that the color of several words seemed to be slightly lighter than before.

"Old thing, come here!" Xuan Jingyu turned his head and stared at Eunuch Jiang sharply, with a hint of majesty in his voice.

Upon hearing the voice, Eunuch Jiang hurried forward, bowed slightly and stood respectfully beside the emperor. He did not dare to neglect and listened attentively to the emperor's instructions.

"Take a good look at yourself. Have the colors of these words on my face faded?" Emperor Yuanwu stared at himself in the mirror and asked in a serious tone.

Eunuch Jiang raised his head cautiously and observed the emperor's face carefully. After a moment, he replied softly, "Your Majesty, it has indeed faded a little."

Xuan Jingyu was delighted and immediately called Concubine Rou to check it out. Concubine Rou hurried over, got close to the emperor's face, and examined it carefully. Sure enough, the color of the word did seem a little darker than before.

When Emperor Yuanwu saw that everyone was saying that the color was fading, a ray of hope suddenly ignited in his heart. He secretly thought that perhaps in a few days, these words would gradually disappear without a trace.
