The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry

Tai Chi Hall.

The candlelight was dim and there was silence.

Xie Rong was sitting on the dragon throne in a bright yellow pajamas. He had his eyes closed, and there was an unshakable worry between his brows.

A pair of well-maintained hands painted with red cream gently pressed his temples to relieve his sorrow.

The door creaked open and Xie Rong suddenly opened his eyes. The queen withdrew her hand, gathered her sleeves, and looked dignified.

Li Shunquan hurried into the hall and bowed to Xie Nanyuan, saying, "Your Majesty, Wu Yuanzheng has returned."

"Announce." Xie Rong said lightly.

After a while, Wu Yuanzheng came in. He knelt down and saluted, saying, "Your humble servant greets the Emperor and the Empress."

"How is Prince Rui's injury?" Xie Rong's whole body was half hidden in the dark, only his pair of dark eyes stared at Wu Yuanzheng mysteriously, his voice was full of urgency and carried invisible power.

Wu Yuanzheng shuddered, and he looked up hesitantly, but then suddenly lowered his head as if he had encountered something terrible. He swallowed hard before speaking, "In reply to the emperor, His Royal Highness Prince Rui...is no longer in danger of death and is currently fine."

Hearing this, Xie Rong's lips curled slightly, his shoulders slumped slightly, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief. He said casually, "That's good. Dean Wu is an outstanding doctor and the head of the Imperial Hospital. With Dean Wu watching over him, I'm sure Yuan'er's injuries will heal quickly."

Wu Yuanzheng was not only unhappy about Xie Rong's praise, but also broke out in a cold sweat. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you are really embarrassing me. Although His Royal Highness Prince Rui is not in immediate danger of death, his injuries are extremely serious. He will have a fever and will need careful care."

"Furthermore, if Princess Jialin had not acted decisively and invited the doctors from Huichun Hall to treat His Royal Highness Prince Rui, by the time I arrived, they would have already dealt with the situation briefly. I'm afraid His Royal Highness Prince Rui's condition would have only become more serious."

"Afterwards, it was this humble official who joined forces with the doctors from Huichun Hall to rescue His Royal Highness Prince Rui."

"Oh, Princess Jialin?" Xie Rong's voice was filled with surprise, and then he said meaningfully, "Yuan'er has found himself a good fiancée. This decisiveness is somewhat similar to his style."

"Queen, don't you think so?"

The Queen was suddenly startled by Xie Rong's gesture, but after recovering, she quickly said, "Your Majesty is right. It's a good thing that Princess Jialin has won the favor of both the Emperor and Prince Rui..."

Xie Rong didn't seem to care what the Queen said. Before the Queen finished speaking, he looked at Wu Yuanzheng who was kneeling below and asked, "When will Prince Rui's injury be healed?"

Wu Yuanzheng pondered for a moment before saying, "Other issues are nothing serious. I'm just worried that Prince Rui's subsequent fever might trigger his previous underlying illness..."

"However, the prince is weak now and cannot be moved. He is temporarily staying in the residence of Jialin County Lord. With the care of Jialin County Lord and the Duke of Zhenguo, I believe the prince will recover soon."

"Speaking of which, Princess Jialin also suffered some minor injuries. For the sake of His Royal Highness Prince Rui's health, Princess Jialin asked me to take good care of His Royal Highness Prince Rui, while she herself left the doctors of Huichun Hall to treat her injuries."

Hearing Wu Yuanzheng mention the Duke of Zhenguo and the doctors at Huichun Hall, Xie Rong's expression flickered. "I understand. Just focus on treating Prince Rui. You don't need to worry about anything else."

After hearing this, Wu Yuanzheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I obey your command and will do my best to treat His Royal Highness Prince Rui."

Xie Rong nodded, "Step back."

"I'll take my leave." Wu Yuanzheng stood up and slowly backed away, out of the gate of Taiji Hall.

When the cold wind blew, he felt dizzy and sweat broke out on his back. Wu Yuanzheng looked back with lingering fear, and finally hurriedly lowered his head and left.

Inside the palace.

Return to silence.

After a long while, Xie Rong suddenly said, "Queen, do you think I shouldn't be so concerned about so many rules and should go to the Shen Mansion to see Yuan'er?"

The Queen couldn't see Xie Rong's expression, but her heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She spoke carefully, "I know that the Emperor is also concerned about Prince Rui, but what Chief Steward Li said does make some sense. Your health and safety are more important."

"The person behind the assassination of Prince Rui has not yet been apprehended. Your Majesty, naturally, cannot rashly leave the palace. Your Majesty and Prince Rui are closely connected. I'm sure Prince Rui will understand your difficulties."

"Besides, Prince Rui is still in the Shen Mansion. It is not convenient for Your Majesty to go to the Shen Mansion. It would be better to wait until Prince Rui's injury is better and he returns to the Rui Mansion, and then you can go to visit him." The Queen said with concern on her face.

Upon hearing this, Xie Rong suddenly turned around and looked at the queen with a gloomy expression. After a long time, he suddenly forced a smile.

"Queen, Queen, you are still so smart."

The queen's face froze, and she felt as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake. Her whole body trembled and her heart felt cold.

At this moment, Li Shunquan hurried in and said to Xie Rong with a tense expression, "Your Majesty, we have investigated everything. It was the remnants of Prince An's faction who were unwilling to give up and attempted to assassinate His Highness Prince Rui."

"Prince An?" Xie Rong looked a little surprised when he heard this.

"Yes, Your Majesty, in addition to those killed by His Royal Highness Prince Rui, there are still people fleeing." Li Shunquan bent over with his head lowered so low that his expression could not be seen clearly.

A strange look flashed in the queen's eyes, and then a hint of sarcasm slowly emerged.

Xie Rong picked up the paperweight on the table and threw it to the ground, angrily saying, "Well, what a great Prince An! Prince An killed his father and was killed by me in retaliation. He deserved death more than enough, and yet they dared to lay hands on Yuan'er."

"Lee Soon-jeon!"

"The slave is here!"

"Order the Imperial Guards to capture the remaining Prince An's criminals with all their might. Execute them immediately upon capture to serve as a warning to others!"

"Yes!"

Li Shunquan was about to leave when Xie Rong called out, "Wait!"

Li Shunquan stopped and waited for instructions, then heard Xie Rong say, "Yuan'er is the child I value most and want to entrust with important tasks. Although Wu Yuanzheng's medical skills are good, Doctor Pei is obviously better."

"Pei Liangchuan's whereabouts are unknown after he left the palace. I order you to send people to search for Pei Liangchuan. After finding him, have him go to the Rui Wang Mansion... Li Shunquan, I don't want to be disappointed. You know what to do."

Li Shunquan raised his head suddenly, then slowly lowered it, his lips moving as he said, "I will definitely live up to the trust of the Emperor."

Xie Rong nodded slowly and said in a gentle voice, "Very good, go ahead."

Li Shunquan stepped back and turned away.

Xie Rong felt a little tired. He hadn't slept all night and was a little out of spirit. He stood up indifferently and walked towards the bed. The queen followed behind him.

It was daybreak, and the red candles in the Taiji Hall had burned down to the end. A sigh came from the dragon bed, but no one knew who made it.

"It's almost over..."

-

Shen House.

The sun was shining outside, but it was dark inside.

When Xie Nanyuan regained consciousness, he felt a pair of hands constantly wiping the sweat from his forehead.

He wanted to open his eyes to see who it was, but he couldn't.

Finally, consciousness could not resist the body's instinct and slowly dissipated into nothingness.

I don’t know how long it took, but Xie Nanyuan suddenly opened his eyes and saw the pink bed curtains that exuded a girlish atmosphere.

He was in a trance for a moment, his body functions were slowly recovering, and it seemed like something was slowly sliding across the back of his left hand.

Itchy and warm.

Xie Nanyuan's dark eyes moved slightly, and when he glanced sideways, he saw the girl in a goose yellow dress lying on the edge of his bed, her bright smiling face as big as a palm resting on the back of his hand, her eyes closed, breathing shallowly and slowly.

Her curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and her brows were furrowed, obviously she was sleeping uneasily.

Inexplicably, the warmth on the back of my hand took on a hint of allure.

Xie Nanyuan slightly bent the fingers of his right hand, subconsciously trying to rub his tightly furrowed brows.

But he never expected that the slightest exertion would cause pain to spread to every part of his limbs and bones. The unexpected pain made him groan in pain.

Before his raised hand touched Shen Qionghua's cheek, she was awakened by him.

Shen Qionghua felt some movement, opened her eyes confusedly, and saw a familiar, large hand close at hand.

She was startled, and she sat up suddenly, saying in surprise: "Xie Nanyuan, you're awake!"
