Chapter 152 The Crown Prince Dies
In the palace.
Emperor Xuanyuan spoke angrily.
"What? The witchcraft in Southern Xinjiang has appeared again?"
"Isn't the Saint of Southern Border dead?"
Yun Wuhen bowed.
"Yesterday, someone suddenly died at Yunke Ferry. We originally thought the restaurant had used the wrong ingredients, and even the owner of Yunke Ferry was taken to the Dali Temple. However, the princess discovered that the deceased had already died. Sure enough, today I checked and found that the deceased's body was full of poisonous insects. He did not die of food poisoning at all. The Saint of Southern Xinjiang is indeed dead. It seems that there are still wizards in Southern Xinjiang in Xuanyuan."
"Lord Chen and the Regent are worried about the Crown Prince's safety and have taken people to track down the wizard in Southern Xinjiang."
Emperor Xuanyuan paced angrily.
"What a great Southern Xinjiang."
"Come here, send someone to search immediately. If you find any wizards from Southern Xinjiang, strangle them immediately."
Regent's Palace.
Xingyue applied medicine to Liuyue's body, only to see that the wounds were hideous and of varying depths, obviously the marks left by the severe torture in the Dali Temple.
Liu Yue clenched her teeth and tried not to make any sound, but her body occasionally trembled slightly due to pain, betraying her patience.
"These people are so cruel, how could they be so cruel to a woman?"
Xingyue said indignantly, and her hands moved more gently, fearing to add more pain to Liuyue.
Liu Yue spoke in a trembling voice.
"It's just some superficial injuries. I'll be fine after some rest. I have to thank Zhuang Linan for using this name. Otherwise, I might not be alive when I come back."
Xiao Fuguang reached out and held Liu Yue's hand.
"Liu Yue, I'm sorry for making you suffer. Don't worry, I will definitely get you back for the injuries you sustained."
Liu Yue heard this and spoke.
"Don't worry, Princess. I can still bear this little pain. Gu Chuan has become much smarter since he became Su Yan. This plan is a chain reaction. If you worry too much, you will get confused. Princess, don't be anxious. You must be on guard against Su Yan."
Su Yan's current schemes are indeed linked one after another, and with Prince Rong behind him, he is indeed difficult to deal with.
Xiao Fuguang's face also darkened.
"There's always a way."
Su Mansion.
Amiruo and Amiya finally waited for Su Yan to return.
"Lord Su."
Su Yan walked to the main seat and sat down.
"You all showed up here. It seems the pursuit outside is quite intense."
Amiya spoke slowly.
"Excuse me, Master Su, what should we two sisters do next?"
"We all follow Lord Su's orders. Now Xiao Fuguang is not dead, and our identities have been exposed."
Su Yan gently stroked his sleeves, a sinister look flashing in his eyes.
"For your safety, I'm afraid you can no longer stay in this imperial city."
Upon hearing this, Amiya looked at Su Yan in confusion.
"Lord Su wants us two sisters to leave immediately?"
Su Yan listened and looked at the two of them.
"I know your purpose is to avenge your Saint. We all have the same goal, otherwise we wouldn't have the chance to sit here and drink tea. If I let you leave, I think you will be unwilling to do so. So I have come up with a compromise."
Amiruo spoke.
"What method?"
Su Yan continued speaking.
"Since you can't stay here any longer, why don't you two try something big? You can kill the prince and leave. Don't worry, as long as you kill the prince, I will find a way to frame Xiao Fuguang for his death. Then Xiao Fuguang will go down and apologize to your Saint."
Amiya spoke cautiously after hearing this.
"Why should we trust you?"
Su Yan looked at her and spoke.
"Just based on our long cooperation, you all know how much I hate Xiao Fuguang."
Amiruo spoke worriedly.
"That's your Xuanyuan's crown prince. If we really kill him, will we be able to leave smoothly?"
Su Yan spoke in the affirmative after hearing this.
"Don't worry, you two. We've worked together for so long, and I will definitely see you off. You can sneak into the Prince's mansion at night and take his life. Then, my men will be at the city gate, trying to find a way to get you off."
Prince's Mansion.
The guards are on patrol.
Suddenly, many butterflies and fireflies appeared in the yard. These butterflies and fireflies danced in the night, forming a strange and beautiful picture, which also attracted the attention of the guards.
"Why are there suddenly so many butterflies and fireflies?"
"Patrol carefully..."
But the guards fell one after another.
Amiya and Amiro came over the wall.
Amiya still had the clothing blueprint in her hand.
"The prince lives in this position. Let's go."
Regent's Palace.
Xiao Fuguang looked at Xuanyuan Jing who had returned and raised his hand to pour him a cup of tea.
"Haven't you found out yet?"
Xuanyuan Jing took the teacup and spoke slowly.
"I've searched the entire Imperial City, but couldn't find any trace of him. I suspect he might be at the Su family, so I've already sent Wen Ying to investigate the Su residence at night."
Xiao Fuguang spoke thoughtfully after hearing this.
"If we can find the Southern Border wizard in the Su Mansion..."
Xiao Fuguang suddenly stood up and counted with his fingers.
"not good…………"
Ran out in a hurry.
Xuanyuan Jing hurriedly followed him out.
"How to support the light."
Xiao Fuguang looked up at the sky and saw the stars in Ziweiyuan twinkling and getting darker, while the stars in Taiweiyuan became brighter.
Suddenly, Ziweiyuan fell from the sky.
Xiao Fuguang frowned and spoke.
"The star in the Purple Palace has fallen, and the prince has died..."
Xuanyuan Jing spoke upon hearing this.
"This...this is impossible, right? Both the Chen family and the emperor have sent people to protect the prince. This..."
"Come here, prepare the horses and go to the Prince's Mansion."
Xiao Fuguang grabbed his sleeve.
"It's too late, let's go to Chen's house."
Xuanyuan Jing gave her a puzzled look.
Xiao Fuguang spoke anxiously.
"We can't show up at the Prince's Mansion alone. This could be a setup. We have to bring Master Chen with us to investigate."
Soon the couple rode their horses straight to Chen's house.
Prince's Mansion.
Xuanyuan Che's neck was cut and the blood had dyed the bed sheets red.
Amiya spoke to Amiro.
"Everyone in the Prince's Mansion has fainted. By the time others find out, we should have already left. Let's go."
At the door of the room, Chen Pan'er also fainted on the ground. There was a bowl lying on the ground next to her, broken into pieces, and the medicine juice was spilled all over the floor.
In the palace.
The queen, who was about to rest, suddenly covered her chest with her hands.
I just felt a sharp pain in my heart.
Nanny Fang hurriedly supported her.
"Mother?"
"What's wrong with you? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
The queen frowned, feeling a sharp pain in her heart, and held Nanny Fang's hand tightly.
"I don't know why, but my chest suddenly started to hurt."
Seeing the queen frowning in pain and her face turning pale, Nanny Fang spoke anxiously.
"Someone call the imperial physician."
Xiao Fuguang and Xuanyuan Jing rode their horses at full speed to the Chen family's house and broke directly into the mansion.
Lord Chen came out hurriedly to greet him.
"Your Highness, why is it so late at night..."
Xiao Fuguang spoke immediately.
"Master Chen, this princess observed the sky at night and found that the prince was in danger. Please come with me, Master Chen."
When Mr. Chen heard this, he spoke quickly.
"Come here, bring the horse."
Soon, several people and guards went straight to the prince's mansion.
When he broke into the Prince's Mansion and saw the gate guard lying on the ground, Lord Chen suddenly had a bad premonition and rode his horse straight to the Prince's yard.
"Prince."
Xiao Fuguang and Xuanyuan Jing also hurried to follow.
Guards who had fainted could be seen along the way.
Lord Chen rushed into the prince's yard, dismounted from his horse, and saw Chen Pan'er fainted on the ground.
"Pan'er..."
He hurriedly held Chen Pan'er in his arms and tested her breath, finding that she was still alive.
He looked up and saw the prince lying on the bed, and hurriedly put Chen Pan'er down.
“Your Highness…”
