"Everyone, please go back. Don't say anything that shouldn't be said about what happened today. You should all understand." Xie Sui looked at the people on the field and reminded them.

When everyone heard this, they immediately felt relieved and quickly left this place of trouble.

Only after everyone left did Xie Sui order his men to take action.

"what--"

Fu Yan cried out in pain as he was hit by the board.

Xie Yunqi stared at Xie Sui with resentment on his face. He was going to teach Xie Sui a lesson someday!

"Cough cough cough." Xie Sui covered his mouth and coughed a few times.

"Your Highness, you'd better go inside. It's too cold outside." Bei Chu looked worried.

"After the caning, send someone to take him back to Prince Ping's palace."

Xie Sui stood up and left the corridor to go to Yu Guiwan's room.

When he went in, Qiao Shuang and Fuqiu had already bandaged Yu Gui's wound and changed him into clean clothes.

"Wei Heng, can we take the person back now?" Xie Sui asked while sitting on the bed.

"It will be more convenient to go back home to recuperate. By the time the princess wakes up, the medicine will be ready."

"Then let's go back home."

Qiao Shuang was also a smart person. She immediately asked her servants to prepare a carriage to send Xie Suihe and Gui Wan away. Only after sending the two away did Qiao Shuang feel relieved. It seemed that Prince Chen had no intention of pursuing her.

……

Furong was waiting anxiously at the gate of Prince Chen's mansion. When she saw Yu Guiwan being carried back, she felt anxious and distressed.

"Take good care of the princess." Xie Sui put Yu Guiwan down carefully, gave an instruction, turned around and went to the study.

Furong looked at the injuries on Yu Guiwan's body and burst into tears immediately, "Princess, you were fine when you left, how come you are like this when you come back?"

"Keep your voice down and don't disturb the princess's rest." Fuqiu glared at Furong angrily, her voice a little hoarse.

When she was bandaging the wound, she saw the injuries on Yu Guiwan's body, and she bandaged Yu Guiwan while crying.

Furong sniffed and turned to look at Furu.

The two looked at each other, then hugged each other and cried softly.

……

study.

"Your Highness, two bodies and the body of a wolf were found a mile away from Merlin Court. I'm afraid the princess dealt with them."

"No clues have been found on those two people yet."

The guard half-knelt, waiting for Xie Sui's punishment.

Xie Sui's lips tightened as he said in a cold voice, "Keep investigating. We'll have to turn the entire capital upside down to find him."

"Yes."

After saying this, the guard retreated.

"Cough cough cough..."

Xie Sui's cough was short and rapid, and after it subsided considerably, he continued, "It's getting late today. I'll inform the Yu Mansion tomorrow."

As soon as he finished giving the order, Xie Sui fell down heavily.

*

Xie Yunqi, who had just received twenty lashes of the cane, was helped up by someone. He was so angry that he pushed the person away.

"Go away!"

He roared angrily and walked outside despite the pain.

Fu Yan, who had been beaten with twenty sticks, had already fainted from the pain and was carried back to Prince Ping's palace.

Xie Yunqi did not return to Prince Ping's Mansion but went to the palace first.

After being caned, he could only lie down in the carriage to feel better, and he was rushed to the palace without even treating his wounds.

He was supported and walked step by step to Chengqian Palace. His hatred for Xie Sui grew deeper with each step. He had not only the revenge for his wife being stolen but also the humiliation. He would not let Xie Sui go in the future.

The imperial steward outside Chengqian Palace saw Xie Yunqi and hurried to greet him.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?"

When the imperial steward saw Xie Yunqi's appearance, he couldn't help but ask.

Xie Yunqi was sweating profusely from the pain. He knelt down in front of the palace and shouted, "Father! You must make the decision for me! Father!"

The chief steward realized that something had happened and immediately went into the hall to announce it.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Ping is kneeling outside, and he is still injured."

Xie Xu was processing a memorial and was suspicious when he heard this. "Let him in."

Xie Yunqi was still helped in. After entering, he knelt in front of Xie Xu and cried, "Father! You must make the decision for me!"

"The Emperor's uncle actually resorted to lynching his son! Where does this put my father's reputation?"

Xie Xu stood up and saw the injuries on Xie Yunqi's body.

He frowned, thinking that this time he had indeed gone too far.

"Summon Prince Chen to the palace."

"Call the imperial physician over to treat the wound first." Xie Xu spoke again.

"Thank you, Father."

Xie Yunqi knelt down to express his gratitude, a shrewd look flashing across his lowered head. He had deliberately not treated his wounds and went straight into the palace.

……

Half an hour later, the Imperial Steward hurried into the palace, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Chen fainted a while ago and has not yet woken up."

"What! How are people now?!"

Xie Xu stood up anxiously.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness. Doctor Wei said that Your Highness had a high fever due to being exposed to the wind outside this afternoon. He will be fine once the fever subsides." The chief steward knew that Xie Xu would be worried, so he specifically asked Wei Heng and Xie Sui about their physical condition before leaving.

Xie Yunqi looked displeased. Who knew if Xie Sui pretended to be unconscious on purpose to escape the blame?

However, he did not dare to show any displeasure and could only wait for Xie Xu to speak.

"In that case, let's wait for him to recover for a few days before bringing him back to the palace."

Xie Yunqi was about to speak, but Xie Xu continued, "Let's talk about today's matter another day. You should go back and have a good rest."

"Yes."

Xie Yunqi took a deep breath and had to suppress the anger in his heart.

He couldn't help but feel even more hatred towards Xie Sui.

After walking out of Chengqian Hall, Xie Yunqi returned to Prince Ping's Mansion in a gloomy mood. He didn't say a word along the way, and the people who followed him didn't dare to say anything, for fear of making Xie Yunqi unhappy again.

After returning, he angrily went to the yard where Fu Yan was, and could still hear Fu Yan scolding the maid.

"You bastard, you're killing me!"

He pushed the door open and walked in. With a dark face, he walked to the bed, scaring Fu Yan so much that she shrank back.

Xie Yunqi was so angry when he saw Fu Yan that he raised his hand to slap her.

"Your Highness, the princess knows she is wrong. Please forgive her this time. She is still injured and cannot be beaten." Upon seeing this, Nanny Yang, who was serving Fu Yan, knelt down hurriedly with a pleading look on her face.

Xie Yunqi gritted his teeth, retracted his slap, and warned with a dark face: "If you dare to do something like this again, I will divorce you immediately!"

If she hadn't failed to harm someone and been caught, he would have been beaten as well.

When Fu Yan heard the word "rest", she almost jumped up.

"Divorce me?!"

"I know you're still thinking about Yu Guiwan! Now she's someone else's wife! And you want to divorce me for her!"

Xie Yunqi pinched his brows and felt a headache. He was already unhappy and now Fu Yan had touched his sore spot. He left the room without looking back.

Fu Yan cursed and then started crying.

"Why did he divorce me?!"
