Xie Yao and Wei Chan looked at each other, both having a bad feeling in their hearts, and looked at Xiao Ji with concern at the same time.

"Your Highness, what happened in the North?"

Boss Wei mentioned in his last letter that the northern border seemed unstable, and coupled with the current situation in the capital...

Xie Yao, Xiao Ji and others all knew what was going on.

"Hmm." Xiao Ji's face was solemn and his expression was very unpleasant. He said, "There are frequent unrests in the northern border. I'm afraid..."

Xie Yao and Wei Chan understood what Xiao Ji had not said yet.

I'm afraid war is about to break out!

Wei Chan's expression was slightly stern. "Your Highness, Crown Princess, if this is really the case, I want to return to the North!"

The Wei family had already fallen into decline the year she was born. She grew up in the northern border since she was a child, and if it came to the critical moment, she would never betray them.

Wei Chan's eyes were full of sincerity. "I beg Your Highness and the Crown Princess to grant my permission."

Xie Yao and Xiao Ji looked at each other, their expressions somewhat helpless. This matter was not a matter of whether they were right or wrong.

It was the emperor's wish that Wei Chan return to the capital, because the military power of the Zhenbei Army was in the hands of Wei Er. To put it bluntly, Wei Chan was a hostage.

The emperor even wanted to marry Wei Chan to Xiao Hong and let her stay in the capital.

If she wanted to leave Beijing, she was afraid the emperor would not agree.

Wei Chan was silent for a moment, then said, "Your Highness and the Crown Princess, just pretend I never said anything." A hint of determination flashed in her eyes. At worst, she could just run away quietly...

"Go if you want." Xie Yao held Wei Chan's hand, and the warm palm passed on strength to her, "I'll take care of everything."

Wei Chan was slightly startled, then smiled and said with emotion: "Crown Princess, you are so kind..."

Xie Yao reached out and hugged Wei Chan, gently patting her back.

Xiao Ji coughed and said, "The Crown Princess is right." Wei Chan is not an ordinary person. She can play a greater role in the northern border.

Pei Chen quickly arrived at the Prince's Mansion. After getting the things, he went directly to the Sky Prison to meet Duke Dingguo Lin Jia.

Originally, the Lin family should have been charged with crimes long ago, but because the Lin family members were stubborn, Pei Chen kept suppressing the charges on the grounds that there were still some details that had not been confirmed.

But someone on Xiao Ning's side had been urging this matter to proceed, wanting to determine the charges as soon as possible and either exile the person or behead him.

If Xiao Ning's attention hadn't been diverted these days, I'm afraid this matter would have been suppressed long ago...

The Grand Princess's Mansion.

"Your Highness." The fox man walked in, knelt on one knee and said, "I just received news that Pei Chen went to the Heavenly Prison after leaving the Prince's Mansion."

Xiao Ning sat on the armchair, her thin shirt and gauze barely concealing her beautiful figure. A cold glint flashed in her eyes. "It looks like they really want to kill me."

"In that case... you can't blame me..."

Xiao Ning raised the corners of her lips in a dangerous arc, "This is a gift from me... I hope my brother and his wife like it."

The fox man knelt on the ground, lowered his head and dared not say a word.

Xiao Ning thought of something, a smile spread across her face. She raised her eyelids slightly and said lazily, "Have you sent all the grapes we just picked to the palace?"

"Yes." The fox man replied immediately, "He was sent to the palace early this morning. His Majesty and the Empress have all seen your filial piety."

"Yes." Xiao Ning nodded. "My royal brother and several of my younger brothers have also sent gifts, but I can't let them accuse me of favoritism."

The fox man responded again and immediately turned around to make arrangements.

After the fox man left, Xiao Ning slowly picked up the letter on the table, opened it, looked at the contents, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up.

……

Prince's Mansion.

After Pei Chen left, Wei Chan didn't rush to leave. Xie Yao had been recuperating since giving birth.

After her protest, she finally succeeded in getting Xiao Ji to agree to let her practice again.

Wei Chan stayed today to teach her.
