He Xuejian didn't speak, but looked at the prince with red eyes, "Brother Crown Prince, please let me go. No matter whether my aunt was harmed by Consort Wuya or not, I want to try. I don't want to regret it later!"
"Brother Crown Prince, if you promise me this time, I'll do whatever you say from now on, okay?"
The Crown Prince sighed helplessly, "You're so brazen because you're taking advantage of my reluctance to refuse you!"
Remember, from now on you must listen to me in everything you do. You said it yourself!
"Okay!" He Xue readily agreed. She didn't know that every time she wanted to do something in the future, the Crown Prince would bring up this sentence, and she would have no choice but to obediently listen to the Crown Prince.
"Consort Wuya is currently in Chengqian Palace!" The Crown Prince told He Xue everything about Consort Wuya. "Consort Rong said that someone told Consort Yi that Consort Tong's mother was seriously ill, but I had already instructed that no one was allowed to tell Consort Yi."
Consort Rong suspected that it was Consort Wuya who was secretly causing trouble.
Moreover, Consort Wuya gave birth to the Ninth Princess not long ago!
"Isn't it not yet time for Consort Wuya to give birth?" He Xue asked.
"That's what makes people suspicious. Moreover, Consort Wuya only specified that she wanted Physician Wang to take her pulse. There's probably something unknown going on here!"
"So you must be extremely careful when you are facing Consort Wuya. I'll be outside. If anything seems amiss, shout immediately, understand?" the Crown Prince instructed Xue.
If the Crown Prince were to stand guard outside Consort Wuya's room, and someone else were to see this, he would probably be unable to clear his name even if he used up all the water in the Yellow River!
“Brother Crown Prince, no need. It’s not good for you to stand outside Consort Wuya’s room!” He Xue said.
"I'll have He Zhu accompany you!" The Crown Prince thought for a moment, realizing that his previous statement was inappropriate. "I'll find a way to get Father Emperor to come!"
"I understand!" He Xue nodded in response.
"I've already had someone keep an eye on Physician Wang. Given his collusion with the palace concubines, he won't get away with this!"
The reason we're not punishing him now is to bring good fortune to Mother Tong!
You must protect yourself and not let Wuya Guiren hurt you!
"If anything happens, just shout it out, understand?" The Crown Prince decided that as long as Consort Wuya dared to harm He Xue, he wouldn't care about anything else; he would rush in immediately to take He Xue away.
"I know, Crown Prince, you've said it many times already!" He Xue said with a smile.
"Isn't your Crown Prince worried about you? How dare you complain that he's being long-winded!" the Crown Prince said.
"Don't worry, Crown Prince, I've remembered everything you said! Now take me to Consort Wuya's room!" He Xue said.
"Alright!" The Crown Prince told He Xue Wuya where Consort was located, and Crown Prince He Xue nodded and walked directly there.
Consort Wuya was lying in bed at the moment. The Ninth Princess had already been taken away. She only glanced at the Ninth Princess before the Ninth Princess left her side.
Although she was somewhat disappointed that it was a girl, it was still the child she had carried for ten months and given birth to, so how could she not feel heartache!
It was all because of Tong Jia Qingyao. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been demoted. Otherwise, the Ninth Princess could still have stayed by her side.
"Tong Jia Qingyao, I will never let you get away with this!"
The door creaked open from the outside.
Consort Wuya assumed it was a palace maid who had entered, so she paid no attention.
He Xue pushed open the door and walked in. Although the house had been cleaned up, there was still a bloody smell.
He Xue walked in, covering her nose.
When Consort Wuya heard the footsteps getting closer, she looked up and saw that it was He Xue who was walking in.
"So it's Princess He Xue! Why isn't Princess He Xue accompanying the Imperial Concubine? Why have you come to this filthy place of mine?" Consort Wuya said with a sneer.
"I heard that Consort Wuya gave birth to the Ninth Princess, so I came here to see her!" He Xue ignored Consort Wuya's sarcastic tone and pondered how to start the conversation and how to make Consort Wuya lower her guard.
"Is Xue Gege being kind or just here to make a fool of me?"
"What do you think?" He Xue asked in return.
"You'd be better off spending more time with the Imperial Concubine instead of wasting your time here with me! You might not have another chance like this in the future!"
Upon hearing this, He Xue felt that Consort Wuya must know about Consort Tongjia's situation, but no one would have told her. So, it must be that Consort Wuya herself knew. Could it be that she really poisoned her aunt?
He Xue felt a vague sense of anticipation and hope.
"You're talking nonsense!" Xue shouted. "You're just jealous of your aunt, you're saying this on purpose!"
"Hehe! What do I have to be jealous of her for!" Consort Wuya said, clearly feeling a little guilty.
"Of course you're jealous of your aunt. You're jealous that your aunt was born into a better family than you, and that the things you strive for are easily obtained by your aunt."
You tried every means to retain your uncle's favor, but his affection for you was only because of your aunt.
You tried everything to sow discord between your aunt and your emperor uncle, but it only made their relationship more harmonious!
"Am I right?" Kazuyuki asked sarcastically.
