Xiao Yanxi saw who it was and his expression changed: "Zhenzhen, why are you here!"

Xiao Zhenzhen ran up to Xiao Yanxi, panting heavily. Bingyi quickly bowed and said, "Fifth Princess!"

Xiao Zhenzhen waved her hand: "I am no longer a princess. Father demoted me to a commoner and exiled me to Jinsha Island with my third brother."

Xiao Yanxi was somewhat incredulous: "How is this possible? This is ridiculous!"

Although Xiao Zhenzhen was born to the Imperial Noble Consort, she was also the Emperor's most beloved princess. How could the Emperor bear to let her be exiled?

Xiao Zhenzhen paused, then said, "How is this ridiculous? I am your biological sister. You have been exiled, so it would be unreasonable for me, your biological sister, not to be exiled with you, right?"

Xiao Yanxi was silent, glanced at Jin, and then said, "I am not the Imperial Noble Consort's biological son, nor am I your biological brother. You don't have to go into exile with me."

Jin covered her chest with her hands, her heart beating wildly. Does this mean that Xiao Yanxi recognizes her as his mother?

If the delicate princess were to follow Xiao Yanxi to Jinsha Island, even if she didn't die on the way, she would have to live a life worse than death. Xiao Yanxi didn't want this to happen.

As a result, Xiao Zhenzhen was not only unhappy, she also glared at the eunuch beside her: "Are you dumb? Speak!"

The eunuch quickly and humbly explained, "The Duke of Yingzhou's Mansion has also been sentenced to exile by the Emperor. The Duke of Yingzhou is the Imperial Noble Consort's maternal family, and the Duke of Yingzhou is the Fifth Princess's grandfather. The Fifth Princess should indeed be exiled as well."

Xiao Zhenzhen was satisfied and waved to the eunuch: "I've caught up with my third brother. You can go back and tell the emperor to take care of himself. I wish him a long life!"

When the emperor was mentioned, the eunuch's face looked uglier than eating shit.

Xiao Yanxi couldn't help but ask: "What's going on?"

The eunuch wiped his tears and said, "The princess insisted on going into exile, but the emperor refused. She...she actually pulled out the emperor's beard, and the emperor bled profusely..."

The eunuch couldn't continue speaking halfway and pointed at Qin Zhenzhen, so the emperor had no choice but to exile the fifth princess in anger.

Xie Fanjin looked at the Fifth Princess for a few seconds. This girl was quite interesting. She was actually willing to suffer with Xiao Yanxi.

Xiao Yanxi's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot when she heard this. She yelled at Qin Zhenzhen, "Ridiculous, stupid! Why did you follow me? Hurry back, apologize to the emperor, admit your mistakes, and be a good Fifth Princess!"

Qin Zhenzhen said confidently, "No, I heard that the envoys from the Beihe Kingdom are coming to discuss a marriage between the two countries. I'm the only princess of the right age. If you ask me to marry an old man, I might as well go into exile with you!"

Xiao Yanxi was so angry that he couldn't speak for a moment.

Jin hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward to advise, "Fifth Princess, this exile is going to be very difficult. We won't have enough food to eat, and we'll have to sleep in the open air. I heard there's nothing but sand on Jinsha Island, and you'll die if you go there. Why would you, a princess, suffer with us?"

Even if I marry an old man, at least I will have fine clothes and delicious food, and I won't be cold or hungry. It's better than exile.

Xiao Zhenzhen shook her head: "If I can't marry the person I love, then life would be worse than death!"

Xie Fanjin scratched his ears, then looked at Xiao Yanxi. Was there any hidden meaning in the Fifth Princess' words?

Having said that, Xiao Yanxi also knew Xiao Zhenzhen's personality and could only let her follow him.

Before leaving the city gate, the exiled team from the Duke of Ying's Mansion also joined them.

Ever since the chief eunuch said last night that he was going to the Duke of Ying's Mansion to convey the imperial edict, Xiao Yanxi guessed that the people from the Duke of Ying's Mansion would be exiled together, so there was nothing surprising about it.

"Xiao Yanxi, I'm going to kill you!"

As soon as the group gathered together, Master Chen rushed over with a dagger.

The incident happened suddenly and everyone was shocked. The timid ones even screamed.

Jin was so scared that her face turned pale, but she quickly put Xiao Yanxi behind her.

Although Jin didn't say a word to Xiao Yanxi along the way, everything she did was for Xiao Yanxi.

Xiao Yanxi felt a little touched. He had been raised by the Imperial Noble Consort since he was a child and had never experienced the love between a mother and daughter.

He was raised by a nanny since he was a child. What the imperial concubine cared about most every day was whether he pleased the emperor, whether his handwriting was good, whether he did well in his studies, whether he was praised by the teacher, and whether he would be punished for any shortcomings or mistakes he made.

The Imperial Noble Consort told him that anyone who wanted to be close to him was trying to take advantage of him and profit from it.

In the deep palace and in the court, there was intrigue and deception. Although he was the crown prince, he felt that there was really no affection to talk about. Everyone was just acting, so he developed a cold and indifferent personality.

But now that he has fallen to such a state, he has instead experienced the precious love of his family. This is really a trick of fate.

Seeing that Mr. Chen's dagger was about to stab Jin, Xiao Yanxi pushed Jin aside, and Bingyi kicked Mr. Chen down.

Master Chen's face turned ashen, veins bulging on his forehead as he glared at Xiao Yanxi fiercely: "Xiao Yanxi, if it weren't for you, our Duke Ying's Mansion wouldn't have been implicated, and we wouldn't have been exiled. I'll kill you, I'll kill you!"

As he spoke, he got up from the ground and was about to attack Xiao Yanxi again. He was kicked again, and this time it was Xiao Yanxi who kicked him.

"Uncle, what are you crazy about?"

Master Chen fell to the ground again, and the former Duke of England's wife screamed immediately, slapping her thigh and crying, "Oh my god, Xiao Yanxi, you bastard, not only did you cause our entire family to be exiled with you, but you even dared to lay hands on my son. You are so heartless and inhumane!"

In the past, Xiao Yanxi was raised by the Imperial Noble Consort. After all, he was a prince, and everyone in the Duke of Ying's Mansion had some respect for Xiao Yanxi.

Now that things have come to this, Xiao Yanxi is almost like an enemy to them.

"I'm going to beat you to death, you ungrateful bastard! If I had known this would happen, I would have let my daughter strangle you to death!"

The former Duke of England's old lady staggered towards Xiao Yanxi, wanting to vent her anger on her second son.

At this time, the former Duke of England frowned and shouted angrily, "Behave yourself! If you have any spare energy, use it on your legs!"

If you are exiled thousands of miles away, your legs will be worn out. Now that things have come to this, what’s the point even if you turn the world upside down?

Bing Yi's face was grim as he looked around at the people in the Duke of Yingguo's mansion who were glaring at him covetously. "You are not implicated by our master. Don't forget that the person who slandered our master is your Duke of Yingguo's son-in-law. It was your Duke of Yingguo's mansion that begged our master to use him. It is clearly our master who was implicated by your Duke of Yingguo's mansion!"

Master Chen was furious: "It's all said in the imperial edict. It's clearly him who formed a clique for personal gain and framed loyal officials. He said we were aiding and abetting the evil. We were implicated by Xiao Yanxi!"
