Xuanyuan Peng instructed Ye Yun and the Imperial Guards to escort Xuanyuan Zhan to the camp first, and then sent Zong Jiu to find Hang Yuqing and the others.
Bai Shi, Su Xuening, and Xuan Yuanpeng also hurriedly returned to the camp.
As for Shao Kun and the assassins, they were escorted back to the camp by Ye Feng and the guards of the Holy King's Mansion.
While Hang Yuqing was treating Xuan Yuanduo and Xuan Yuanzhi, Zong Jiu rushed over: "Head Physician Hang, something terrible has happened! The Emperor and His Highness the Holy King have been assassinated! His Highness the Holy King is seriously injured! Please come back to the camp with me quickly!"
The people on this side were all shocked when they heard that Xuan Yuanpeng and Xuan Yuanzhan had been assassinated together.
Especially Xuan Yuanzhi and Xuan Yuanyu, the three of them.
Father and Xuanyuan Zhan have been assassinated. Who did it? Could it have been one of them?
The three exchanged glances and instantly began to suspect each other.
Hang Yuqing was shocked to hear that the Emperor and the Holy King had been assassinated. She quickly left two imperial physicians to take care of Xuan Yuan Yu and the others, and then hurriedly led the other imperial physicians to the camp.
After Hang Yuqing and Zong Jiu left, Xuan Yuanzhi looked at Xuan Yuanyu and said casually, "Why was Father suddenly assassinated? Could it have been you, Third Brother?"
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan Yu's face instantly darkened, and he glared at Xuan Yuan Zhi, angrily saying, "You dare to pin such a serious crime on me? Xuan Yuan Zhi, are you courting death!"
Xuanyuan Zhi wasn't angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "I know you wouldn't assassinate Father, but don't you hate Xuanyuan Zhan? Did you send assassins to kill Xuanyuan Zhan, and it alerted Father?"
Upon hearing the mention of assassinating Xuan Yuanzhan, Xuan Yuanyu frowned deeply.
There aren't many people in this capital city who want to kill Xuan Yuanzhan, and who dare to do so! But he and his mother are two of them.
He definitely didn't hire an assassin to kill Xuanyuan Zhan; he didn't know about his mother...
Xuanyuan Yu really couldn't say for sure. Suddenly, he felt a little panicked. Now that his father was involved, this matter had blown up. It was best not to have anything to do with his mother!
Xuan Yuanzhi saw Xuan Yuanyu's expression and was already looking forward to a good show: "Let's go and see if Father is injured, and how badly Xuan Yuanzhan is hurt?"
If Xuanyuan Zhan really dies from his injuries, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing for him.
Xuan Yuanzhi wasn't the only one with this thought; Xuan Yuanyu and Xuan Yuanduo both wished for Xuan Yuanzhan's death. If Xuan Yuanzhan were dead, not only would there be one less person vying with them for their father's favor, but there would also be one less person competing with them for the throne!
This side of the camp.
As soon as Xuanyuan Zhan was sent to the camp, Hang Yuqing arrived with several imperial physicians.
Xuanyuan Peng had no time to question Hang Yuqing at this moment, and only said anxiously, "Come quickly and take a look at the Holy King."
Seeing Xuan Yuanzhan covered in blood, Hang Yuqing dared not delay and immediately led several imperial physicians forward to check his pulse and wounds.
"How is it?" Xuanyuan Peng was extremely anxious.
After examining the prince, Hang Yuqing immediately reported, "His Highness's injuries are serious. We don't know if his heart meridian has been damaged. We must treat him immediately. Please, Your Majesty, the Dowager Consort, and the Princess Consort, please leave first."
Su Xuening looked at Xuan Yuanzhan with concern: "Do you need me to stay?"
Although Su Xuening didn't say it explicitly, Xuan Yuanzhan understood what she meant.
She asked if she needed medical treatment.
"You and Bai Fuya go out first." Xuan Yuanzhan tried his best to keep his tone calm, not wanting her and Bai Fuya to worry about him.
Su Xuening understood what he meant. Although she was still worried, she thought that Hang Yuqing was the head of the Imperial Medical Academy and his medical skills would definitely not be bad.
Moreover, although Xuanyuan Zhan did not ask her to take his pulse, judging from his current condition, he was not in extreme danger.
"Okay." Su Xuening replied, gave him one last look, and then went out with Bai Shi.
Fearing that he might interfere with Hang Yuqing and the others' treatment, Xuanyuan Peng also withdrew first.
After everyone left, Hang Yuqing and the imperial physicians immediately began to treat Xuan Yuanzhan.
As soon as Xuanyuan Peng came out, he first gave a sinister look to the assassins, including Shao Kun, who were being held by the Imperial Guards, and then ordered Zong Jiu: "Summon the Three Departments!"
"yes."
Zong Jiu agreed and immediately sent the eunuchs to summon the person.
As soon as Xuanyuan Peng came out, Xuanyuan Duo, Xuanyuan Zhi, and Xuanyuan Yu arrived.
"Father." The three of them came over and saw that Xuanyuan Peng was unharmed. They didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed.
Xuanyuan Peng glanced at the three of them, and seeing that Xuanyuan Duo and Xuanyuan Yu were injured, his face darkened instantly. He asked, "What happened? Did you fight?"
What kind of time is this? They still have the mind to fight!
"No, we didn't fight." Seeing that Xuan Yuanpeng was in a bad mood, Xuan Yuanduo didn't dare to complain and tried to cover it up.
But before Xuanyuan Duo could finish speaking, Xuanyuan Zhi interrupted, "Father, you've misunderstood. The eldest and third sons didn't fight; they were beaten by Xuanyuan Zhan."
Xuan Yuanzhi looked as if he was complaining on behalf of Xuan Yuanduo and Xuan Yuanyu.
Xuan Yuanpeng's face immediately turned extremely ugly: "Have you provoked Zhan'er again?"
They're ganging up on Zhan'er again!
Seeing that Xuanyuan Peng's expression was not good, Xuanyuan Duo quickly explained in a low voice, "He hit the third brother first, and I saw that the third brother couldn't beat him... so I went to help."
Upon hearing that the problem lay with Xuan Yuan Yu, Xuan Yuan Peng glared at him and asked, "What have you done now?"
Xuanyuan Yu turned his face slightly away, saying nothing.
Su Xuening chimed in coldly, "It's nothing much. They just pulled me off my horse for no reason. Luckily, the prince protected me, so I wasn't hurt. But the prince fell off his horse and reopened his wound on his waist. Then they started fighting."
Su Xuening only mentioned the bad things Xuan Yuan Yu did, but didn't mention at all that Xuan Yuan Zhan hit Xuan Yuan Yu's horse's leg with a stone.
Sure enough, Xuanyuan Peng instantly flew into a rage, raising his hand to slap Xuanyuan Yu hard across the face: "You beast!"
Xuanyuan Yu covered his face, slowly turned his head, and looked at Xuanyuan Peng in disbelief: "Father..."
"shut up!"
Xuanyuan Peng didn't want to listen to a word Xuanyuan Yu had to say, and angrily shouted at him, "How many times have I told you not to provoke Zhan'er and his wife again? Do you just ignore what I say?"
Since things have come to this, even if he can't let go, he should let go now!
Seeing that Xuan Yuanpeng always favored Xuan Yuanzhan, Xuan Yuanyu was furious. He glanced sadly at Su Xuening, then turned and leaped onto his horse, galloping into the woods.
"Third brother!" Seeing that Xuanyuan Yu had run away, Xuanyuan Duo was worried and wanted to chase after him.
"Nobody is allowed to interfere with him!"
Xuanyuan Peng sternly stopped him, and Xuanyuan Duo instantly dared not move.
"Your Majesty, the Three Ministers have arrived!"
Before long, Zong Jiu arrived with Qiu Ye, Zhu Yu, and Pang Hui.
"Your Majesty, we, your humble servants, pay our respects!"
The three had already heard about the situation from the imperial eunuch on their way here. They never expected that the Holy King would be assassinated again so soon. These people are really bold. They dare to do something in the royal hunting grounds. They not only tried to assassinate the Holy King, but they even dared to assassinate the Emperor.
Xuan Yuanpeng, his face dark, gestured with his chin toward the black-clad assassins: "Go and identify them, see if they are the same group of assassins as yesterday?"
