Who put the yellow robe on me?

"Sixteenth brother, how could you be fake?" Princess Thirteen's face was pale, her eyes full of pain and confusion. She took a few steps back, obviously shocked by the news.

"Your Highness! You are not the real Sixteenth Prince?" He Xiaowei's face was full of shock, her eyes filled with disbelief and fear.

"Are you really fake? When did this start?" There was distrust in Dianzhang's voice. He clenched his fists and his eyes were complicated.

"Sir! Although you are not a real prince, we are all refugees." Han Qingsong lowered his head, his eyes complicated, hesitant and uneasy.

"Someone, come here, drag this traitor who pretends to be the sixteenth prince out and behead him." Emperor Liang was furious and slammed the dragon throne with a sound like thunder, which frightened everyone in the hall.

"Since you have been discovered by others, don't blame me for being rude! Summon Deadpool, kill the people and bury the bodies!" There was a hint of coldness in Defei's eyes, and her tone was as cold as a blade.

The Thirteenth Princess, the Emperor, He Xiaowei, Qingsong, Dianzhang, Defei and others all surrounded Jiang Chen and pointed at him.

"No...I'm not...listen to me...Ah!"

Jiang Chen suddenly woke up from his dream, covered in cold sweat and his heart beating violently.

He gasped and looked around before realizing that he was still in bed in Ningbo Palace.

The quietness and familiar environment around him made him feel a little relieved.

The door was pushed open and Xiao Anzi walked in quietly, his face full of worry and anxiety.

"Your Highness, you are finally awake." His voice was low and cautious. "How do you feel now?"

Jiang Chen nodded slightly and forced a smile. "I'm fine, Xiao Anzi."

"Your Highness..." Xiao Anzi's eyes were filled with melancholy.

"What's wrong, Xiao Anzi? Is there something wrong?" Jiang Chen looked up at Xiao Anzi.

"The Thirteenth Princess and Miss He have been waiting in the main hall for a long time. Consort De came this morning, but she left when she saw that His Highness was still asleep."

Xiao Anzi said hesitantly, "Your Highness, if your body is not well yet, otherwise, this servant..."

He carefully tidied Jiang Chen's bedding, his tone full of concern.

"It's out of the way!"

Jiang Chen patted Xiao Anzi's hand gently, signaling him not to worry.

"Please help me tidy up a bit and invite Princess Thirteen and Miss He in."

After a while, Jiang Sirou and He Xiaowei walked into the room.

Jiang Sirou looked worried and walked quickly to Jiang Chen's bedside: "Sixteenth brother, you are finally awake. How do you feel now?"

Jiang Chen nodded reluctantly: "I'm fine! How's the situation outside now?"

"Alas, you don't know, you have been unconscious for a day and a night, and a lot of things have happened outside!"

Jiang Sirou's voice was anxious, with a hint of helplessness in her tone, but more of concern.

He Xiaowei's eyes were red, obviously she had been crying. At this moment, she was even more charming: "Although you have given all the evidence to the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Justice has also compiled all the evidence and submitted it to His Majesty. But..."

He Xiaowei seemed to not know how to continue.

"But Sixth Brother Jiang Fu said that the Ministry of Justice's evidence is insufficient and all his statements are one-sided. There are only physical evidence but no witnesses." Jiang Sirou took over the conversation, frowning and looking solemn.

"However, fortunately, His Royal Highness the Twelfth Prince, Prince Qi, supports the Ministry of Justice, saying that the evidence is irrefutable. Cui'e is still imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice's prison, so there are witnesses."

He Xiaowei added, her voice trembling slightly, expressing helplessness and worry about the situation.

"Because of this, my Sixth Brother and Twelfth Brother even had a fight in the main hall, and the Emperor was furious."

"Finally, the Dali Temple was asked to preside over the joint trial of the three courts. I estimate that the result will be known as early as tomorrow morning."

Jiang Sirou sighed. It was obvious that the development of this matter had exceeded everyone's expectations.

Jiang Chen frowned and asked, "What's Brother Jiu's attitude? Didn't he say anything?"

The Thirteenth Princess shook her head. "This little brother didn't say anything specific, but His Royal Highness Prince Ru seems to be trying to smooth things over, acting as if it has nothing to do with him."

Jiang Chen's heart trembled. In this way, the struggle between the Sixth Prince and the Twelfth Prince would gradually become clear.

Cheng Jingde must be the Sixth Prince's confidant, so he doesn't want to lose such a right-hand man in vain.

The Ministry of Justice is the assistant of the twelfth prince, who wants to take this opportunity to let the Ministry of Justice show its capabilities and eliminate the dissidents in the Ministry of Rites.

He was about to ask a few more questions when He Xiaowei said softly, "You are such a person. You are in such a bad situation and yet you still think so much. You should just take care of your injuries and avoid wasting your time by knowing too much."

Her tone was full of concern, and there was a barely perceptible tenderness in her eyes.

Jiang Chen suddenly thought of something and asked He Xiaowei, "Do you know who saved me yesterday?"

Jiang Sirou and He Xiaowei exchanged a glance and shook their heads. "I don't know. I only know that it was Concubine De's guards who carried you in. You were covered in blood and burning hot. It was truly horrifying."

He Xiaowei added, "After you were sent back, Doctor Shi and Doctor Zhang from the Imperial Hospital brought a team to treat you. They said that if you were half an hour later, your life would be in danger."

"The guards of Concubine De?" Just as Jiang Chen was puzzled, he heard the eunuch outside the door shout, "The Concubine De has arrived!"

Jiang Sirou and He Xiaowei didn't intend to bother with Concubine De any further, so they stood up and prepared to leave.

As she was about to leave the door, the Thirteenth Princess suddenly turned around and said, "Sixteenth Brother, there's still a lot of plague among the refugees outside the city..."

Before he could finish his words, He Xiaowei quickly pulled him away.

When Jiang Sirou and He Xiaowei walked out the door, they happened to run into Concubine De.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Virtuous Consort!"

After the two of them paid their respects and left, Defei gave them a cold glance in response.

After leaving the palace, Jiang Sirou asked He Xiaowei, "Why didn't you let me tell my sixteenth brother the real situation of the refugees?"

He Xiaowei sighed slightly: "Alas! Sister Rou, he is injured like that, he needs to rest."

Jiang Sirou said anxiously, "I know! But he's the only one who can do this."

He Xiaowei whispered, "Sister Rou, in this situation, I just hope he can rest well before going. I only just realized now that I'm also a selfish woman."

Jiang Sirou looked at He Xiaowei, speechless for a long time: "Xiao Wei'er? Tell me, are you in love with Jiang Chen?"

He Xiaowei neither admitted nor denied it, but frowned and said lightly: "Sister Rou, too many things have happened recently. I'm a little tired today, I'll go back home to rest first."

After saying that, He Xiaowei turned and left, leaving behind a lonely figure...
