Poisonous Pet World: The War King's Heart-stealing Medical Concubine

Chapter 160 The birthday party in 5 days is also cancelled

In the early morning, the sun shines through the clouds to the capital, and everything is still immersed in tranquility. In the Duke of Huguo's mansion, everything seems so orderly.

Early the next morning, Duke Protector of the Country Yun Lan and his two grandsons Yun Shenqi and Yun Yangshuo returned home from the magnificent court, with an imperceptible heaviness in their footsteps.

After entering the mansion, they walked straight to the study without stopping for a moment. The old man's deep eyes frowned tightly, as if there was a huge rock pressing heavily on his heart, making him unable to calm down.

He whispered, "When Xier left quietly last night, I felt like I was being pressed down by a stone. I was very uneasy." Although his voice was very light, it contained an unquestionable majesty.

He continued, "You two should immediately arrange for someone to follow her in secret and ensure Xi'er's safety. Shenqi, Yangshuo, you can act separately. If the War King finds out, we can also use the strategy of dividing our forces to deal with it."

Hearing this, Yun Shenqi and Yun Yangshuo looked at each other and answered in unison: "Okay, Grandfather, we'll arrange it right away." After that, they turned around and walked out of the study quickly.

The atmosphere in the study suddenly became more solemn.

Yun Yanhao frowned and said with a worried look on his face: "Father, there was an assassination in the palace last night, and no result was found until dawn. What's worse is that the Cining Palace was also burned. Such a daring act must have something strange behind it."

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, lost in deep thought, and after a while he slowly spoke: "It is a bit strange. If there is an assassin, no one in the palace was injured, and only the Cining Palace was burned to ruins. But for Xier, it may not be a bad thing. Next month, the War King will marry Xier, and the news of Xier leaving the capital can be concealed for a day longer."

After he finished speaking, he opened his eyes, revealing a hint of complex emotions, and continued: "By the time the War King comes to his senses from his busy schedule, Xier will have already gone far away. We just need to wait patiently for the day when Xier returns. Over time, perhaps the War King's feelings for Xier will gradually fade, and he will no longer be obsessed with marrying Xier. In this way, the Queen Mother will no longer make things difficult for Xier."

At this time, Yun Yanshu could no longer hold back and interrupted, "Father, Xier is just a weak woman after all, wandering alone. Even if we send people to secretly protect her, it is still difficult to be completely at ease!"

The old man sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness and heartache in his eyes, but then his gaze softened. "That child has suffered a lot over the years. Now she is a person with her own ideas and opinions. She doesn't want to be bound by the imperial power of the capital. She longs for freedom and longs to pursue a broader sky. As elders, all we can do is respect her decision and give her the greatest support and encouragement."

Yun Yanhao nodded slightly to show his agreement. He knew that the old man's words made sense, and he also knew that the Queen Mother was hostile to Jun Feimo and wanted to get rid of her to eliminate future troubles. Leaving the capital now might be a wise move to avoid disaster.

At the same time, in Prince Zhan's mansion, Tianyi stood next to the medicine barrel, staring at Jun Feimo who was immersed in the medicine with complicated eyes, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

"What's wrong with you? Just say whatever you want to say. Don't hold it in and make yourself sick." Hua Qianyi, who was standing aside, was holding a folding fan and shaking it gently, with a teasing tone in his voice.

Tianyi scratched his head when he heard this, and finally spoke: "Master, Young Master Hua, last night, the Cining Palace... turned into ruins overnight. The emperor was furious, and the palace searched all night, but did not find even a single clue. What's even more strange is that before the fire started, there was a deafening roar."

Upon hearing the news, Hua Shaoyi's heart tightened. Who on earth could have done this? How could they be so bold!

At this moment, Jun Feimo in the medicine barrel seemed to be touched by these words. He opened his eyes suddenly, and a hint of deep thought flashed in his eyes.

His voice was low and magnetic, and he said slowly: "Oh? The Queen Mother has moved to Yixiang Palace, so I think it should be fine. There is no need to panic about this matter."

Seeing his master so calm, Tianyi said anxiously, "Master, you don't know that when the Empress Dowager learned about the disaster in the Cining Palace, she fell ill in anger and the birthday banquet in five days was cancelled."

Jun Feimo raised a faint smile and said, "My mother must be tired of celebrating her birthday every year. Besides, there are so many imperial doctors in the palace taking good care of her. Maybe my mother can take this opportunity to rest her body and mind, and she won't have to stir up trouble in the harem all day and give my brother a headache."

After saying that, he closed his eyes and continued to enjoy the comfort of taking a bath.

Hearing this, Hua Qianyi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a playful smile. He looked at Jun Feimo with a half-smile in his eyes, and said with a teasing tone: "Brother, this fire is so strange, you didn't secretly send someone to set it, did you?" Although his words sounded like a joke, there was a hint of temptation hidden in them.
