At this moment, the Crown Prince's fingers twitched, and he slowly opened his eyes. He looked at Kangxi, a hint of surprise and grievance flashing in his eyes.
"Father..." the Crown Prince called out weakly.
Kangxi quickly grasped his hand, "Baocheng, you're awake! How are you feeling?"
The Crown Prince forced a smile. "Your Majesty, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have worried you."
Emperor Kangxi was deeply moved, but also felt a pang of guilt. "Baocheng, it is your father who has wronged you. Your father will never doubt you again!"
The crown prince merely gave a wry smile and said nothing.
Emperor Kangxi saw this and felt very sorry for him. "Baocheng, why don't you move to the Qianqing Palace? It will be easier for me to take care of you!"
"Father, I'm quite content staying in Yuqing Palace!" the Crown Prince said calmly.
"Alright, you can stay wherever you like!" Kangxi was like a child who had done something wrong and wanted to make amends.
"Father, I am fine now. You are busy with state affairs, please go back!"
"Take good care of yourself, and don't hesitate to tell me if you need anything!" Kangxi said with concern.
"Your subject understands!"
In the end, Emperor Kangxi left Yuqing Palace with great reluctance.
After Kangxi left, the Crown Prince beckoned to Hexue, "Hexue, come here!"
When He Xue came to the Crown Prince, tears streamed down her face before she could even speak.
Seeing this, the Crown Prince quickly wiped away Xue's tears, saying, "Don't cry, I'm alright now!"
"Brother Crown Prince, you almost scared me to death!" He Xue said fearfully.
"It won't happen again! Be good, don't cry! My heart aches every time you cry!" The Crown Prince said gently as he held He Xue in his arms.
He Xue gently nudged the Crown Prince and got up from his embrace. "Crown Prince, who do you think is framing you?"
"We can't rule out the possibility that it's the Eighth Prince himself!" the Crown Prince said sharply.
The Crown Prince felt that only the Eighth Prince was not on good terms with him, and that the guard had waited until Kangxi came out to make his move, which was obviously premeditated, so the Eighth Prince was very suspicious.
"Could this be a ruse on his part?" He Xue asked.
"Besides him, I can't think of anyone else for the time being." The crown prince clenched his fist.
Seeing the Crown Prince's angry expression, Xuejian hurriedly comforted him, "Brother Crown Prince, you just woke up, don't get too excited."
Anyway, it's good that you're safe and sound now. We can discuss this further later.
And this time, Father Emperor will definitely order a thorough investigation. You can just wait patiently!
The Crown Prince took a deep breath and nodded: "You're right, Father will have someone investigate. If it really was Eighth Prince who did it this time, I wonder if Father will still favor him this time."
"If Father Emperor continues to favor the Eighth Prince, I'll have to talk to him about it!" He Xue said, clenching her fist.
"What do you mean by 'repay'? He Xue, what did you do while I was unconscious?" the Crown Prince asked anxiously.
He Xue had no choice but to tell the Crown Prince what she had said to Kangxi, "Crown Prince, have I caused you trouble?"
"No! I'm not afraid you'll get into trouble, I'm worried that Father Emperor will implicate you!"
I'm so happy you're protecting me! But don't do that again next time! After all, that's Father Emperor; he doesn't like being criticized!
"I understand!" He Xue nodded in response.
In the Qianqing Palace, Liang Jiugong announced to Emperor Kangxi, "Your Majesty, Prince Yu has arrived!"
"Let him in quickly!" Kangxi thought they must have found the results.
