In the dark dungeon, Wen Xing huddled in a small corner, buried his head between his bent knees.

In response to his only request before coming in, Emperor Anlong ordered someone to light a few candles in his cell.

Warm yellow filled the cell, bright and soft.

Wen Xing raised his head, staring at the candle in a daze.

I didn't expect to start over again, but I still inevitably walked on this old road.It's just that this time, even he himself didn't know what went wrong.

Whether it is the medicinal materials or the cooking process, it has not passed through other people's hands at all. The only possible thing is the source of the medicinal materials and the moment when he left during the cooking.

But this medicine was given to him by his mother, and he also asked Tang An to take care of it when he left during the night.

In other words, either it made him doubt his mother, or he doubted Tang An.

Both are not the situation that Wen Xing wants to see.

A tiger doesn't eat its offspring, even though his mother is very cold towards him, she has never done any other extreme behavior, so Wen Xing still has a respect and filial piety towards her.

As for Tang An, Wen Xing had always trusted her, no matter what, he did not believe that she would do such a thing.

So where did the error occur?

Wen Xing really couldn't figure it out, so he could only sigh lightly in the end.

This time, it is likely that the charges will not be cleared.

But he was really not reconciled.

He didn't even live as long as his previous life, and he didn't even figure out the relationship between the Yunwu tribe and himself...

He can't die yet!

The strong desire to survive was deeply rooted in Wen Xing's heart, until he was so restrained that he couldn't breathe.

There must be some other way...

He took a deep breath and rubbed his frozen arms.

In the cold cell, Wen Xing curled up in a small corner, looking weak and helpless.

"Click."

At this moment, there was a sound of unlocking the door.

Wen Xing shrank subconsciously.

When I was in the sky prison in my previous life, every time I heard this voice, it meant that the torturer came again.

Can't even escape this in this life?

A nameless fear spread - after all, torture is really not something everyone can bear, and Wen Xing is one of the people who can't stand the torture.

In his previous life, he did endure the punishment time and time again, but it also left him with a deep psychological shadow.

If possible, he still hopes not to do it again.

Wen Xing flinched, and when he was about to raise his eyes vigilantly, he suddenly fell into a warm embrace.

"Ah Xing, I'm sorry..."

Xie Yi's trembling voice lingered in his ears, easily defeating Wen Xing's vigilance just now.

Perhaps the Xie Yi fever has not completely subsided, and the body temperature that is different from ordinary people tightly wraps him, driving away all the coldness around him.

"Ke Meng, don't be afraid, there is still the prince and me!"

Xie Qing's crisp voice was also mixed with tenderness, the little man stood in front of Wen Xing, there was no disgust or doubt in his pure eyes, only a sincere trust.

Wen Xing froze in place.

Could it be that Xie Qing still doesn't know the crime of murdering him?But even if Xie Qing didn't know, Xie Yi should be clear about why they appeared here?

"His Royal Highness, Sixth Highness, you... why are you here?"

Wen Xing endured and endured, and finally asked.

Xie Yi was not willing to let go of Wen Xing until this time, inserted his slender hands into his slightly messy hair and gently smoothed it out, and said with a light smile: "Gu and Xiaoqing have applied to Emperor Father, and they are clearing the charges." Before, you were grounded in the East Palace, and this time I came here to take you away."

Then he clung to Wen Xing's ear and lowered his voice, and said guiltily, "I'm sorry for making you suffer here."

The light and fluttering words gently plucked a thin string in Wen Xing's heart, and the warm breath was like a feather, tickling him slightly.

Wen Xing didn't stay here for long, and because Emperor Anlong granted his request to light candles, he didn't have time to suffer.

But there was one thing he still couldn't figure out, so he pushed Xie Yi away and looked directly at him, saying: "I'm charged with murdering you and His Highness the Sixth Highness, and you also know that the current suspect is only me."

"But didn't you say that you consider yourself innocent?" Xie Yi smiled softly.

"I believe you."

These are the three words Wen Xing had been waiting for.

The deep voice surrounds my ears, like a swimming fish, gently stirring up the stagnant water that has long since had no waves.

In an instant, Wen Xing felt as if something was about to collapse.

"Ke Meng is not such a person, I believe you too."

Xie Qing's sonorous and forceful words intensified the agitation of You Yu, and for the first time Wen Xing almost couldn't help taking off his disguise in front of the two of them.

It turned out that what he wanted was nothing more than an equal trust.

It's just a "I believe in you" that doesn't hurt, it's just a sincerity that is no more or less, but it is the most precious thing in his opinion.

It's been two lives, but he didn't expect that in this life, he would actually get the wish that he couldn't ask for in the previous life.

But...it's too late.

In his previous life, he died a long, long time ago, and died forever amidst regret and unwillingness.

Now he is just a hypocrite wearing a mask of sincerity, and he doesn't deserve or need to have these.

But, has Wen Xing really never used his sincerity in this life?

Not quite, I'm afraid, but he hadn't noticed it himself.

After a long while, Wen Xing, who had been silent for a long time with downcast eyes, suddenly turned his head, took a breath tremblingly before looking back, and said with a smile: "I thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness."

His smile is no longer as friendly to everyone as before, it is less fake and more relieved.

Xie Yi's heart twitched, and suddenly he felt that Wen Xing had become different, but he couldn't tell exactly what was different.

In fact, Wen Xing had indeed changed.

At that moment just now, he suddenly understood one thing.

He in the previous life had already died, so Xie Yi in the previous life naturally disappeared with his rebirth.

Xie Yi is still the same Xie Yi, but he is no longer the one from the previous life.

If you start all over again, then everything may change, including a person's mind.

Wen Xing still did not forgive Xie Yi, but that Xie Yi was limited to his previous life.

For the first time, he tried to completely separate the past life and the present life into two different experiences.

The evidence against him was even more convincing than in his previous life, but Xie Yi and Xie Qing still believed in him. If it was said that they didn't have the slightest sincerity, Wen Xing himself might not believe it.

One year later, he will still leave without any regrets, but in the remaining year, he is also willing to allocate a small part in return.

Of course, if they took it back in advance, he would withdraw without hesitation.

Blindly resisting will only hurt others and yourself. If you want to open up and relax, it will be good for everyone.

After thinking everything through, Wen Xing felt as if something had finally been peeled off from the bottom of his heart, and he felt a lot more relaxed.

It's just that Wen Xing still wears a disguise - a disguise of pretending that he still doesn't want to treat Xie Yi sincerely, this time even Xie Yi didn't see through it, he just pretended that Wen Xing was really suffering.

He made up his mind to treat him twice as well, and said with a smile: "Then let's go back, shall we?"

There was a smile in Wen Xing's clear eyes, he nodded and said, "Okay."

Xie Qing who was beside her couldn't help raising her smiling face, and pulled up a corner of Wen Xing's sleeve, her eyes were shining, full of the purest trust.

Just like that, the group of three happily returned to the East Palace, which once again aroused discussions among others.

No matter what, Wen Xing was taken back to the East Palace less than an hour after he was imprisoned, and he was the shortest person in history.

However, his charges are still on his head, and everyone who is free is discussing why he got out so quickly.

But Wen Xing, who was the person involved, was actually very curious.

"It's still thanks to Xiaoqing's earth-shattering crying."

Xie Yi recalled that Xie Qing in the imperial study who cried and made trouble and almost hanged herself, and couldn't help laughing.

Xie Qing didn't feel ashamed, and said with a smile: "The main thing is that the emperor feels ashamed of me, so I just wanted to try it out, but I didn't expect it to work."

It's also fortunate that Xie Qing is still young, so she has no face to bear when making trouble.

Wen Xing chuckled helplessly, rubbed his head and said, "Don't make such a fuss next time."

"Do you still want to have a next time?" Xie Yi raised his eyebrows lightly, got up and went to the bed where Wen Xing was sitting, and pushed himself down, wrapping his arms around his neck and rubbing against him.

"You too, don't make such fools anymore. Gu really can't stand it again."

A slight itch came from his neck, Wen Xing smiled, gently pushed him away, and said innocently: "I don't want to, and I don't know why it became like this."

Xie Yi took advantage of the opportunity and sat down beside Wen Xing, heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "This case is to avoid suspicion, and the father left it to Dali Temple to handle it. And after an investigation, the person in charge of the case was born He is innocent and does not form factions on weekdays, so he is trustworthy."

Wen Xing nodded, indicating that he understood.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Xie Qing took her leave and went back to her yard.

After sending Xie Qing away, Xie Yi and Wen Xing continued to talk about this crime when they returned to Wen Xing's room.

"Hey, Ah Xing, think about it carefully, is it possible that there is a problem in any link?"

Wen Xing knew what Xie Yi wanted to ask, so he lowered his eyes and said, "There are only two places where problems can occur, one is the source of the medicinal materials, and the other is when the minister left during the boiling of the medicine."

"It's just that the medicinal material was handed over to the minister by the minister's mother, and when the minister left, she also asked An to wait at the door of the small kitchen."

Xie Yi was also silent for a while.

Xu Yunning is Wen Xing's mother, and he also sees An Pingli's loyalty. No matter which link has problems, it may be unacceptable to Wen Xing.

After a long time, Xie Yi sighed softly, and said, "Do you still have that medicinal material? I'll take it to the imperial physicians to have a look."

The implication is that we need to start the inspection from Wen Xing's mother first.

If there is no problem with the medicinal material itself, then the problem is An.If it is found that there is a problem with the medicinal material itself, then...

Wen Xing closed his eyes, and then replied: "There are still some, I will get them."

Hopefully, things won't go too badly.

It's just that Wen Xing's expectation finally came to nothing——

It's a problem with the medicine itself.

Wen Xing's heart suddenly sank into an abyss.

All medicinal materials in Wenfu will be inspected before they are purchased or stored in the warehouse to ensure that they are non-toxic and harmless.

Moreover, there are not many servants in Wen's residence, and most of them are personal maids and servants that the four people in the residence can trust.

Then this matter... can only come from the mother.

"You... don't be too sad, maybe some of the servants have rebelled?"

Xie Yi saw that Wen Xing's expression was gloomy after hearing the news, and couldn't help but comfort him.

Wen Xing put aside his other thoughts and said, "I hope."

But in fact, he knew very well in his heart that even if it was really done by servants, it was absolutely impossible for his mother to be uninvolved.

It's just that he couldn't figure it out, how could he be her youngest son, how could she be so cruel?

He sighed lightly, but still didn't show it.

The imperial physician reported the results of the inspection to Dali Temple. After the investigation of Dali Temple, it was initially determined that the problem was in General Wen's mansion.

General Wen's mansion, which had been silent for a long time because of the peace of the frontier, was pushed to the forefront.

Due to the fact that the three gods in the Wen Mansion are not easy to mess with, Dali Temple sent people to check the medicinal material warehouse of the Wen Mansion, and finally determined that Xu Yunning's personal maid had betrayed and secretly exchanged the medicinal materials.

In the end, the maid was executed in the name of indirectly murdering the emperor's heir. This farce of ups and downs ended with Wen Xing's only fantasy about his mother.

Everyone continued to do their own things step by step, preparing for the ceremony of Xie Yi and the coronation ceremony.
