The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife

Ouyang Miaoling fell asleep in the space in a daze while thinking about it. She had no idea what was happening outside.

Late at night, a group of masked killers suddenly appeared at the Second Prince's mansion.

They killed everyone along the way and went straight to the courtyard where the second prince lived.

"Do you know who I am?"

"I am the biological son of the current empress dowager and the brother of the current emperor. If you dare to kill me, my mother will not let you go, and the emperor will not let you go either." The second prince said in horror as he looked at the assassin in front of him.

"The second prince, right? The biological son of the current empress dowager, right? The younger brother of the current emperor, right?"

The man in front of him showed no fear at all. After he finished speaking, he raised the sword in his hand and stabbed out directly.

"Ah," with a scream, Nan Gongyu fainted from fright.

"What a piece of trash, worse than pigs and dogs, dare to challenge the master"

"Kill him," the assassin's subordinate advised.

"No need for that. The master has ordered that he should be spared," said the leader.

"Yes,"

"Everyone else was killed, and the Second Prince's mansion was set on fire."

"Strip that beast and hang him at the city gate," the leader continued to order.

"Yes"

That night, the lights in the study of the Prince Regent's Palace were on brightly.

"Master, we arrived a little late. I don't know who robbed the Second Prince's house, leaving no one alive."

"The Second Prince's Mansion was also completely burned down by the fire. The fire has been put out and there are no casualties among the people."

"The second prince was also stripped of his clothes and hung at the city gate." Gu Ying reported what happened.

"Let him hang on the city wall first and ignore him. Have you found out who did it?" Nangong Mingxuan asked.

"Master, your subordinates are incompetent, and we haven't found out yet."

"I don't want to listen to this nonsense. Find out who did it as soon as possible."

"Could the master be the princess? The last time the secret guards reported, the princess has a group of assassins under her command. Their strength should not be underestimated."

"Have the secret guards sent to protect the princess been discovered?"

"My Lord, according to the secret guards, there is nothing unusual in the courtyard where the princess lives, and the princess has not even stepped out of her room."

"That's strange. You should investigate as soon as possible. There can't be such a force in the imperial capital, and we don't even know its details."

"Yes, Master. I will go investigate right away."

The next day, the Imperial Palace

The Empress Dowager heard from her subordinates that the Second Prince's mansion had been looted by assassins and burned to ashes.

The Empress Dowager was so angry that she smashed all the porcelain in the bedroom to pieces.

"How is the Second Prince now?"

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, the second prince... the second prince..." Nanny Li was so frightened that she stammered and dared not speak a word for fear of angering the Queen Mother.

"Tell me...how is the second prince now?"

"The second prince was also killed by the thieves..."

The Queen Mother fainted on the spot when she heard this.

"Empress Dowager...The Second Prince was taken off his clothes by thieves and hung at the city gate. He was found and rescued by the guards at the city gate this morning. His life is not in danger."

"Yu'er, Yu'er, my Yu'er, where are you?" The Queen Mother struggled to wake up, murmuring Nangong Yu's name.

"Master, the second prince is safe," replied Nanny Zhang, who served closely.

"You said my Yu'er is still alive?"

"Yes, Master, the Second Prince is still alive."

"Where is my Yu'er? I want to go see my Yu'er."

"My lord, the Second Prince is staying in his own villa for the time being. He is still poisoned. Once he recovers, he will come to the palace to pay his respects to you." After Nanny Li finished reporting, she knelt on the ground in fear, not daring to look up.

"Madam Zhang, please go out of the palace on my behalf and visit the Second Prince. I will not feel at ease unless I see with my own eyes that the Second Prince is still alive," the Queen Mother ordered.

"Pick some precious medicinal herbs from the warehouse and bring them to Yu'er to nourish his body. Also bring the thousand-year-old ginseng."

"Oh... by the way, bring more silver. Yu'er is going to rebuild the Second Prince's Mansion, and there will be a lot of money needed."

"Oh... and... bring the best imperial physician in the palace to check on Yu'er."

"And...and...what else? I can't remember it."

"Master, I will take care of the preparations for the Second Prince, you can just rest assured," advised Nanny Zhang.

"You go and make the arrangements. I want to avenge Yu'er."

"Go and get me the regent?" the Queen Mother ordered.

"Yes, master"

Within a cup of tea, the Regent arrived and the Emperor came with him.

"Your son pays his respects to the Queen Mother. I have heard from the people below that you are not feeling well, so I have come to visit you."

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for Yu'er?" The Queen Mother said with tears in her eyes, feeling extremely aggrieved.

"Don't worry, mother. I also heard about my second brother's matter this morning. My ninth uncle has already ordered the previous dynasty to get to the bottom of it. We will definitely seek justice for my brother." The emperor consoled.

"Sister-in-law, I will thoroughly investigate Yu'er's matter. Don't worry, I will give you an explanation." Nangong Mingxuan assured.

"I'd like to trouble the Emperor and the Imperial Uncle to make the decision for my Yu'er."

"Sister-in-law, please rest assured and take care of your health. The emperor and I still have things to do, so I will take my leave now," Nangong Mingxuan continued.

"The Emperor also takes his leave."

"You must serve our mother well. If anything happens to her health, I will hold you accountable." The emperor warned the palace servants and left Ankang Palace where the empress dowager lived with Nangong Mingxuan.

Xuanyue Pavilion Courtyard,

Ouyang Miaoling had been in seclusion for three days, and today his body had recovered by 50%.

He flashed out of the space. He hadn't seen Yi'er for three days and missed her very much.

"Si Fan,"

The door was pushed open with a creaky sound.

"Master, how are you? Are you feeling better?" Sifan asked with concern.

"Sifan, where is Yier? I miss him."

"Master, the little master is in his yard. I will go and call him now."

"Well, go ahead and get me something to eat so that the ghost can come see me?"

"Yes, Master, I'll go right away."

After half a cup of tea, a ghost appeared in front of Ouyang Miaoling.

"Ghost, did anything special happen during the time I was injured?"

The ghost thought for a moment and said, "It seems that nothing special has happened. I have reported everything that should be reported to the master."

"When the Regent was healing me, did anything special happen?"

"When the Regent was treating your injuries, he didn't allow us to be in the house. As for what happened in the house, we don't know."

"Master, please forgive me." The ghost clasped his hands together and knelt on the ground to apologize.

"Wake up, there's just one thing I don't understand?"

"Master, what's the matter? If the Regent has done anything bad to you, I will kill him and avenge you even if it costs my life."

"Do you think a person who doesn't have internal energy can develop it overnight?"

"Master, are you saying that the Regent has transferred his inner strength to you?"

"I still haven't figured out whether the energy in my body is internal or not?"

"Master, let me help you investigate."

"Ok"

After a while, the ghost took away his exploring hand.

"Master, you not only have internal strength in your body, but it is also quite strong. Without twenty years of practice, you cannot achieve this level of strength."

"You mean, that bastard gave me inner strength, and it takes twenty years to reach that level?"

"How old is that bastard? If he easily gave her twenty years of strength, how deep must his internal strength be?"

"I dare not think about it. No wonder all the assassins sent out over the years have failed to hurt him at all."

"But why? He gave her twenty years of internal energy so easily. What on earth was he thinking?"
