Prince Ling was seriously injured and developed a high fever in the second half of the night. Doctor Yan did not dare to leave for a moment.

Mu Qingyan risked her life to save the person, if anything happened to him again, all her efforts would be in vain.

Emperor Jianning learned the news and sent imperial doctors to guard the place, but they could only guard there and could not do anything. They did not even get to see Prince Ling.

After sitting on the bench in the palace for half a day, he had no choice but to leave in disappointment.

"I told you to guard the palace, why are you all back? How is Prince Ling?"

The director of the Imperial Hospital had no choice but to say, "Your Majesty, the prince is being watched over by Doctor Yan himself. We have never seen him, but we heard that it was Miss Mu who saved the prince. His life is not in danger now, but he needs to be taken good care of."

Emperor Jianning never felt relieved. Prince Ling suffered such a serious injury just to save him!

Yesterday, he argued with the ministers in the court over the posthumous title of Empress Xiaolie. After the court session, he quietly left the palace and went to the Imperial Ancestral Temple. Who would have thought that there would be a thief so bold that he dared to assassinate the current emperor in broad daylight!

If Prince Ling hadn't arrived in time out of concern for his safety, Kyoto would have been in chaos right now!

"No, I have to go and see for myself..." He was about to leave when Wang Quan quickly stopped him and advised him earnestly, "Oh my Lord, you can't leave the palace again... The thief has not been caught yet, and the prince is seriously injured. If something happens to you again, Kyoto will be in turmoil..."

Emperor Jianning stopped.

He knew that he could no longer follow his temper.

"Then leave the palace and go see Prince Ling for me... Make sure he is safe and come back to report!"

Wang Quan quickly responded, "I'll go right away, right away."

Wang Quan hurried out of the palace. When he arrived at Prince Ling's mansion, Prince Ling had already woken up, but he was very weak. He was injured in the back and could only lie on his stomach. The first thing he asked when he saw Wang Quan was, "How is your Majesty?"

Wang Quan had also watched Prince Ling grow up. Seeing him so weak, yet still concerned about His Majesty's safety, he couldn't help but be moved. "Your Majesty is fine. I'm just worried and wanted to leave the palace to see you, but I persuaded him not to... God bless, I hope His Majesty is fine..."

He was in a hurry to return to the palace to report and could not stay for long. After expressing Emperor Jianning's concern, he left in a hurry.

After the man left, Doctor Yan came forward with a sigh, "When you woke up, you asked your brother if he knew that you were still alive and breathing. What price did my poor granddaughter pay?"

Prince Ling was stunned. He had been unconscious since he was injured and had no idea that it was Mu Qingyan who saved him. "Uncle Yan, what happened to Yan'er..."

Doctor Yan couldn't suppress his emotions for a moment and turned his face away with a sob.

It took him a long while to control himself. "The sword is smeared with poison. Back then, Yan'er's father was also poisoned by this poison and died because there was no antidote... Yan'er, in order to save your life, forced the poison onto herself..."

"what!"

He was so startled that he tried to get up, but every time he moved he pulled the wound on his back.

"Don't move...if you move the wound will split open again and it will heal even slower!"

Prince Ling had no choice but to lie back down and asked anxiously, "What about Yan'er now..."

"That girl used her inner strength to temporarily seal the poison, but..."

Prince Ling was so anxious that his pale face flushed, "Don't keep me in suspense..."

"Her face is ruined..." Doctor Yan lowered his head, as if he couldn't bear to say it out loud, "her whole face is ruined... She said that if you dislike her, you don't have to marry her, just keep her alive and let the people of Da'an live and work in peace..."

Prince Ling felt anxious and sad. How could he dislike her? He was just afraid that she didn't want to marry him! At this moment, he wanted to fly to her side, hold her in his arms, and tell her that no matter what she became, he liked her and would marry her!

"Uncle Yan, where is Yan'er? I want to see her..."

Doctor Yan exhaled, "What do you want to see? Do you think she is willing to see you now? A girl's face is so important. I can tell you, if you dare to betray her in this life, I will chop you to death even if I have to sacrifice the entire Xiaoyao Sect to vent her anger!"

Prince Ling had no strength left, but his tone was still firm, "Don't worry, Uncle Yan, if I ever fail her, you don't need to do anything, I will chop myself down with one palm."

"Okay, take good care of her. I heard from that girl named Yueban that the Marquis of Wenchang kidnapped her sister, and she went to rescue her sister herself. Her sister was beaten half to death and her internal organs were injured. She spent a lot of internal energy to save the sister. When she knew that you were in trouble, she rushed over without stopping. This girl is loyal and righteous. She wants to save everyone's life, but she doesn't care about her own life! Now she is lying in the room next to yours. She hasn't woken up since she went in. You also know how much damage it will cause to yourself to spend internal energy to save people. Let her have a good rest. When you can get out of bed, go see her..."

-

After Wang Quan returned to the palace, he reported Prince Ling's condition, and emphasized that Prince Ling asked about the emperor's health when he saw him.

Emperor Jianning's eyes turned red at that time.

People were injured because of him, and he naturally knew how badly he was injured.

The thief showed no mercy. If the sword had hit him, it would have killed him instantly.

What's more, the sword was smeared with poison.

“Look in the Imperial Medical Bureau and see if there are any precious and useful medicinal materials, and send them all to Prince Ling’s Mansion.” Emperor Jianning turned around, looked up at the solemn palace, and felt infinite sadness in his heart.

The late emperor did not want brothers to quarrel with each other, and he did not want it either.

But just because he doesn't want to, doesn't mean others don't want to.

The temptation of power is so great that the dying people are now eager to survive.

In Shouxiang Palace, Empress Dowager Lan learned that Prince Ling was not dead again. She was so angry that nothing went right.

"Is this Mu Qingyan here to defeat me? Ever since she showed up, nothing has gone my way! Fangyi is dead, the Mingyuan Marquis's Mansion is gone, Lan Hui is dead, and even the courtiers who were loyal to me in the past have been eliminated one by one. She destroyed Ruge, who I carefully cultivated, and Xinshang, two chess pieces! Although Prince Chong can now compete with the Crown Prince, he has also aroused the emperor's suspicion and fear. He didn't have to show his strength in front of others, but the people he cultivated for so many years were eliminated one after another. If he doesn't take action, the situation will be too unfavorable for us..."

The nanny beside her looked around vigilantly and said in a low voice, "Queen Mother, be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall..."

Queen Mother Lan snorted coldly, "The Emperor has always regarded us mother and son as a thorn in his side, and he wants to get rid of us as soon as possible. He failed this time, and he has alerted the enemy again. He is too anxious..."
