Seeing Xiao Jingyun's speechless look, Lin Yue couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She said to Xiao Huaizheng: "Okay, stop talking."

Xiao Huaizheng said: "But they will still beat me."

Lin Yue asked: "Then what do you want?"

Xiao Huaizheng said: "I want to follow the Queen Aunt, it's safer."

Xiao Jingxian: “…” Despicable.

Xiao Jingyun: “…” Shameless.

Lin Yue said, "Did you know that your uncle and I wanted to go to the palace, so you made all this noise?"

"Don't lie, or I won't care if you get beaten to death later."

Xiao Huaizheng glared at his father with grievance and resentment, then said: "It's my father who is sneaky and secretive. I'm worried, so..."

Xiao Jingxian's face flushed red, and when he saw his brother and sister-in-law looking at him, he held his head in his hands guiltily. Then he shouted angrily, "Xiao Huaizheng, you are my nemesis. Can't I just leave?"

Then he ran away decisively.

Xiao Huaizheng returned to normal and said, "I've never seen an emperor who is so afraid of death."

Xiao Jingyun said: "Then you go and be the boss."

Xiao Huaizheng said: "It's not that I can't be the one, I just can't bear to compete with my eldest brother. He has done nothing wrong to me."

Lin Yue was surprised and asked, "Have you really thought about it?"

"Young man, please hold on tight. I've worked really hard to accumulate merit."

Xiao Huaizheng said with a smile: "Don't worry, auntie, I won't do anything rash."

"Because usually when I make a move, I'm already in disarray."

Xiao Jingyun: "..."

Lin Yue: "..."

In the end, the couple took Xiao Huaizheng's conspicuous bag to the palace.

Lin Yue went there to take a hot spring bath, so she didn't care about the uncle and nephew.

Xiao Jingyun knew that Xiao Huaizheng would not follow him for no reason, so he asked, "Do you have any plans?"

Xiao Huaizheng said, "I've actually always wanted to kill Wang Huaiqing, but Aunt Huang seems to have an inexplicable fear of him. It might be because she attacked Wang Huaiqing before and was then retaliated against."

"I didn't want her to know I was doing this, so I pretended to be by her side. That way, if there was any backlash, I could say I accidentally fell, so she wouldn't get suspicious."

"Once I find out the results of my investigation, we can take further precautions."

Xiao Jingyun said: "Then I will find two guards to accompany you."

Xiao Huaizheng said: "No need, I'm just going to try it first. If there are too many people, it will be easy to be exposed."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingyun nodded and said, "Okay."

"But take an owl with you, so that you can report anything that happens."

Xiao Huaizheng took Yuan Huaizhi out, and the limp mouse was in his palm.

"My nephew has this."

Xiao Jingyun: "..."

"That's worse than an owl. At least an owl can fly and isn't likely to die easily."

"Well, you might die if you cross the street."

Yuan Huaizhi: “…”

Xiao Huaizheng said with a smile: "But now Wang Huaiqing will guard against owls, not mice. This is also my advantage!"

Yuan Huaizhi also quickly said: "I scared a cat crazy yesterday."

Xiao Jingyun's mouth twitched as he said, "You're quite proud, aren't you?"

Yuan Huaizhi hunched over, looking lazy and incompetent.

Xiao Jingyun became even more worried. He had originally planned to go to a hot spring with Lin Yue for a private time, and he had no intention of participating.

After parting with him, Xiao Huaizheng changed his previous attitude of showing weakness and pretending to be stupid. He first put a soft sword on his waist, and then put a dagger in his boots.

He also had one, two, three, four, and five bottles of poison in his arms. Finally, he and Yuan Huaizhi agreed on a slogan: "When I say someone's coming quickly, you say everyone in the palace is out. Got it?"

Yuan Huaizhi said, "I understand."

Xiao Huaizheng climbed over the wall and entered Prince Xiao's mansion cleanly and neatly.

Before he could make a move, he saw two black-clad secret guards leading his eldest sister, who was wearing a veil but had a pair of sparkling big eyes.

Xiao Huaizheng's legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees.

He quickly stepped forward to stop the three people and shouted, "Sister, what are you going to do?"

The eldest princess lifted her veil and asked in surprise, "How did you know it was me?"

Xiao Huaizheng quickly pulled her to an empty corner and hid her there.

Fortunately, the Xiaojun Prince's Mansion was a newly granted residence, and there were not many servants. Chen Wanying did not dare to use the people around Princess Yunduo and dismissed many of them, so the four of them would not be discovered.

But even so, Xiao Huaizheng was speechless. He had finally decided to do something big, but how come he ran into his own royal sister?

The eldest princess was also confused. Why did she come out to kill someone and run into her own brother?

The brother and sister looked at each other, both speechless.

The eldest princess: "You speak first."

Xiao Huaizheng: "You speak first."

The eldest princess said, "Okay, I'll tell you first. I'm here to kill Xiao Huaizheng."

Xiao Huaizheng was shocked: "You come to kill me?"

The eldest princess suddenly realized and said, "Of course not. I'm here to kill Wang Huaiqing. When I saw your face, your name came out of my mouth."

Xiao Huaizheng was half-believing and half-doubting, and his eyes were full of confusion when he looked at the eldest princess.

The eldest princess was at a loss for words: "I really came here to kill him. How could I have known you would be here?"

Xiao Huaizheng thought about it and said, "I am here to kill him too."

The eldest princess smiled and said, "It seems that we are siblings with the same heart."

Xiao Huaizheng said: "But you don't have any skills, what if you get caught during this trip?"

The princess looked at the two secret guards beside her and said, "They do. How much skill does it take to kill someone? Can't they poison, sneak attack, or use a borrowed knife?"

"Besides, they can hold on even if they're discovered. I still have time to run."

"Unlike you, you came here alone and can't run away even if you want to."

Two secret guards: "..."

Xiao Huaizheng: "..."

"Then we kill... them?"

The eldest princess said, "Okay, I'll keep watch for you, you go in and kill them."

"If it succeeds, I'll go and finish him off."

Xiao Huaizheng said: "What if it fails?"

The eldest princess said, "If you fail, I will leave the secret guards to you to help, and I will report to the authorities to save you."

Xiao Huaizheng: "..."

He finally understood why the imperial aunt always gave them a sense of unreliability every time she looked at them.

Suddenly, Yuan Huaizhi said, "Stop talking. Wang Huaiqing sensed something was wrong and is coming over."
