Imperial Palace, Yangxin Hall.

Today, because the emperor vomited blood, Xie Yao accompanied the eldest princess and the concubine to wait in the main hall of the Yangxin Palace for a long time.

We will deal with today's memorials only after the court physician and the other imperial physicians have discussed a plan and the emperor's condition is confirmed to be fine.

There are still many left at this moment.

Hearing Li Dajian say that the Third Prince wanted to see him, Xiao Ji raised his hand and rubbed his temple, saying helplessly, "Please."

Now that people are here, we can't just avoid them.

"Brother Crown Prince, you have to make the decision for me." A voice full of grievance sounded.

Xiao Ji muttered a lot, and his hand holding the red pen trembled, almost writing crookedly.

It’s really Xiao An’s voice... it’s so disgusting.

A flash of disgust flashed across Xiao Ji's eyes, but when he looked up again, he had regained his composure. He only slightly frowned, his expression cold, "What are you doing?"

For a grown man to act like this is really...disgusting.

Xiao An knew it all, but he wasn't ashamed at all. Instead, his expression became even more aggrieved. "Brother Crown Prince, now the whole capital knows that it was Xiao Ning who brought me to this point... I've become a laughing stock in the entire capital!"

"The Grand Tutor told me today that Miss Xuan cried bitterly at home!" Xiao An said gritting his teeth.

He didn't lie, it was true.

Xuan Taifu told him this himself, so he was already angry and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got...

Unable to find Xiao Ning to vent his anger, he entered the palace.

"Brother Crown Prince, please give me a warrant and let me into the Heavenly Prison."

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to Xiao Ning. I just want to ask her why she treated me like this."

Xiao An squeezed out each word from between his teeth, trying hard to suppress his hatred.

Don’t punish Xiao Ning?

snort!

He couldn't kill that bitch Xiao Ning!

Xiao Ji: "..."

He didn't say anything, just looked at Xiao An quietly, but the meaning in his eyes was very clear: he didn't believe it.

Xiao An lowered his head when he was stared at, raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose, and it was obvious that he was feeling guilty.

The side hall suddenly became quiet, with only the sound of burning candles.

Xiao Ji's reaction made the already angry Xiao An even angrier. His anger surged and piled up, almost burning away his sanity.

"Third brother," Xiao Ji finally said, "You have been wronged in this matter."

Xiao An was on the verge of tears. Someone understood his grievances!!!

Xiao Ji continued, "But what should be done with Xiao Ning... I can't make the decision. I can only wait for the emperor's order."

Xiao An naturally understood, and he didn't want to make things difficult for Xiao Ji. He just wanted Xiao Ji to do him a favor.

The Sky Prison was not as easy to break into as the mansion where Xiao Ning was under house arrest, and he… was short of manpower.

Xiao Ji tried to appease him, "Don't worry, Third Brother. When Father wakes up, I will insist on severely punishing Xiao Ning."

Xiao An curled his lips in disdain.

Waiting for father to wake up?

Even if the emperor wakes up, it's still a question whether Xiao Ji is still alive...

"If Third Prince has nothing else to do, please leave first." Xiao Ji saw Xiao An's disdain, but didn't care too much.

No matter how unwilling Xiao An was, he had no choice but to leave at this moment.

But the anger in his heart did not subside at all, but instead became more and more intense.

No one could do anything to Xiao Ning? Xiao Ning hurt him, yet she could still stay in the prison unharmed? She was dreaming!

"Eunuch Li." After Xiao An left, Xiao Ji looked at Eunuch Li and ordered, "Arrange someone to keep an eye on the Third Prince. I'm afraid he might act impulsively."

"Yes, Your Highness." Eunuch Li immediately left to arrange this matter.

As soon as Li Dajian left, Si Nan immediately came to Xiao Ji's side and whispered, "Your Highness, the court physician just sent in the news. The herb that counteracts the medication Your Majesty is taking is the very culprit that triggered the witchcraft poison in your body."

"The person these people really want to harm is me." Xiao Ji said firmly.

As a result, the emperor was implicated by him and suffered such an unexpected disaster.

Si Nan immediately said, "The court doctor has already identified the medicinal materials. He is by your Majesty's side and will definitely be able to find out who did it..."

Xiao Ji nodded, "Make sure to keep an eye on the Heavenly Prison. I'm afraid they won't be able to hold back any longer."

Xiao Ning and Huyan Yuan were both smart people. Since Huyan Yuan was thrown into the Sky Prison, they could guess that something must have happened in the northern border.

So……

Xiao Ning and Hu Yanyuan now had no choice but to fight to the death.

……

As soon as Xiao An left the palace, he met Master Xuan who was waiting outside.

As the two of them boarded the carriage, Grand Tutor Xuan immediately asked with concern, "Your Highness, how is it?"

Taifu Xuan stood in Xiao An's shoes and said angrily, "Your Highness, have you said how you want to punish the eldest princess? Although she is a princess, she has committed such a serious mistake and it is truly unforgivable!"

Xiao An became more and more irritated as he was moved.

It has to be the Taifu! I feel sorry for him.

Seeing that he was silent, Taifu Xuan seemed to understand what was going on and immediately changed his tone, "Your Highness, don't be too angry. After all, she is the eldest princess..."

"Concubine Li has deceived Your Majesty for many years, and the eldest princess is also extremely favored. It is normal that the Crown Prince does not dare to make a decision for you. However..."

Grand Tutor Xuan shook his head, looked at Xiao An with regret, and said, "Your Highness, why don't you just pretend that this matter never happened..."

boom!

Xiao An slapped the table inside the carriage. Because he was too angry, he used too much force and the recoil made his palm numb.

But he didn't care at all. The anger in his heart was like an erupting volcano and could not be contained at all.

He looked at Master Xuan with bloodshot eyes, "You want me to pretend it never happened?"

He has forever lost his right to be a man and his dignity... Should he pretend that nothing happened?

Grand Tutor Xuan opened his mouth, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. Finally, he lowered his brows and said, "Your Highness, please calm down. I was wrong."

Xiao An became even angrier!

Xiao Ning... He would never, ever let Xiao Ning go!

He took a deep breath and said, "I still have some things to do, Master, please go back first."

Taifu Xuan got off the Third Prince's carriage and stood beside the Xuan Mansion's carriage, watching the Third Prince's carriage disappear at the end of his sight.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and then he lowered his head, turned around, took the servant's hand and got on the carriage, "Let's go back home."

Three days in a row.

The capital was calm and no one was making trouble anymore. Xiao An seemed to have completely given up after that day and locked himself up in the Third Prince's mansion all day long.

Xiao Hong is still recovering from his injuries...

Xiao Ji's whereabouts were very regular. He visited the emperor, handled memorials, returned to the prince's residence for dinner, and took his two children with Xie Yao to digest the food before returning to the palace before dark.

Under such circumstances, Xie Yao actually had a feeling that the years were peaceful and quiet.

The only thing that made her unhappy was that Xiao Ji still had lost his memory. Without Xiao Ji by her side, she could never sleep well.

The past few days, I have simply been resting with Zhao Zhao and Sui Sui...

That night.

A loud thunder suddenly sounded, and Xie Yao was awakened from her sleep. She heard the strong wind outside the house and it seemed that a sudden rain was coming.

The maid on night watch was closing the window. Xie Yao raised her hand to rub her temple, and then she heard hurried footsteps outside.

Zhu Qing hurried in and saw Xie Yao awake. He was slightly stunned and said quickly, "Crown Princess, I just received the news."

"My cousin is missing!"
