"It's not time to reveal the secret yet, but I can tell you that I have never been out of the capital."

"You have never been out of the capital? It seems that the one who saved me from the cliff was not you, but the person who asked you to save me today?"

Ah Quan just smiled and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, you must pay attention to safety in the future. You are the crown prince, and only when you are safe can others come."

Shi Yan sighed, "I also cherish my life, but the enemy is in the light and I am in the dark. If I don't take risks, how can I uncover their conspiracy? Every time I think about it, I can't sleep at night."

"It will be solved, everything is moving in a good direction."

Fearing that Shi Jun would return to the palace for a thorough investigation, Shi Yan did not dare to delay and rushed back to the palace with Prince Fu overnight.

Sure enough, Shi Yan had just slept in the bedroom for an hour when he was suddenly awakened in an emergency.

"What happened?"

"Captain, the prince was assassinated. We are searching the palace for the assassin. Please go there as soon as possible."

"Got it."

Shi Yan treated his wounds and hurried to the Purple Palace. As

soon as he entered, he felt the solemn atmosphere and pretended to be concerned: "Your Highness, are you okay? Are you injured? Where were you assassinated?"

Shi Jun ordered: "Take people to check. Catch anyone with shoulder injuries!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

After leaving the Purple Palace, he saw that Wei Xin had already led people to search. He asked for the emperor's order. No man in the palace was spared, not even the disabled eunuchs.

The inspection was intense from the second half of the night until dawn. Shi Yan would rest against the wall whenever he arrived at a place, enduring the pain from the wound on his shoulder.

"Your Highness, the entire palace has been inspected, and only the people in our Zichen Palace have not been inspected."

Shi Jun said sinisterly, "Inspect now, and inspect each other."

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, all the guards were inspected under the supervision of Shi Yan and Wei Xin's left and right guards.

Wei Xin said maliciously: "Afu, it's your turn!"

Shi Yan replied: "It's your turn too, let's take it off together."

The two took off their shirts together and turned to Shi Jun. Shi Jun stood up and looked, then said: "Okay, that's enough."

Shi Yan glared at Wei Xin fiercely, and said in a nonsensical way: "Your Highness, there may be someone who is resentful because of being caught cheating last time. Your Highness, you must be careful."

Wei Xin said angrily: "You! What nonsense are you talking about!"

Shi Yan said this, making it seem that he was completely unaware of the shoulder injury during the search, which made Shi Jun even more off guard.

The two of them were arguing, and Shi Jun ordered: "That's enough, all of you go down!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

The palace was quiet. Shi Jun stroked the little tiger that Xu Mian gave him and smiled evilly: "Real Prince, do you think you have escaped? I don't think so. Let's wait and see."

He had already thought of another good way to catch Shi Yan, that is, to use Xu Mian.

And this matter was handed over to Wei Xin, and Shi Yan had no idea.

"Your Highness, are you saying that I should monitor Penglai Palace?"

"Yes, keep an eye on it all the time. Once you find someone approaching, report to Gu Hui immediately."

That night, the eyes in the dark were lying in ambush near Penglai Palace.

Shi Yan is now the captain of the guards and lives alone in a dormitory. He locked the door and took off his robe. Blood had already seeped from his right shoulder.

Gently peel off a palm-sized piece of soft skin made of the same material as the human skin mask, and underneath is a wound that has not yet healed.

Wipe off the blood with a soft cloth, sprinkle on medicine powder, and just as he is about to wrap the silk strip, someone suddenly knocks on the door.

"Who?"

"It's me."

It was Prince Fu's voice. Shi Yan let him in and quickly locked the door.

"Shen Zhao, why are you here? Don't come to me in broad daylight in the future, so as not to arouse suspicion. Wei Xin has a very sharp eye."

Prince Fu took the silk cloth and bandaged his wound, and whispered: "Someone told me that the prince sent people to guard Penglai Palace. I was afraid that you could not help but go to find the Crown Princess, so I took the risk to tell you that you must not go to Penglai Palace again in the near future."

"The fake prince really put a lot of effort into luring me out. I know it."

Prince Fu burned the cloth he had used to wipe the blood. "Your Highness, you must be careful, or find a chance to transfer away from here?"

Shi Yan comforted him: "I have been valued by the fake prince. Now is the best time to lie in wait. Don't worry, I will find you and A Quan if there is anything."

Before leaving, Prince Fu reminded him not to look for Xu Mian.

After closing the door, Shi Yan missed Xu Mian very much. Mian Mian, what are you doing? Do you miss me? I haven't seen you for three days.

In the afternoon, in Penglai Palace, Xu Mian was swinging on the swing in the garden. The little puppy had grown up a little and rolled happily on the grass.

"Ajun, you are so naughty."

Xuelian brought over the bird's nest soup, and Xu Mian simply sat on the wide swing to eat.

"Xuelian, have you seen Ah Fu's guards these two days?"

Xuelian heard it and whispered, "Crown Princess, why are you asking him again? If His Highness knows about it

, it will be terrible." Xu Mian pouted and said, "His Highness has been very busy these days. Didn't you see that he didn't come?"

She thought, did Ah Fu take advantage of it for nothing? That wouldn't do. Adding the vengeance of the Persian cat, she had to avenge both the old and new vengeances.

After noon, she planned to go to Shi Yan's house in person to seduce him. She

wore a palace lady's dress with long sleeves like an opera singer, and she looked back every few steps, sneaking into the bedroom area where the guards of the East Palace lived.

Xuelian pulled from behind, "Crown Princess, this is where men live, you'd better not go in."

Xu Mian, wearing a palace hat on her head, patted her chest and said, "What are you afraid of? We are both eunuchs now, and no one has discovered us."

A guard came over, and she stepped forward, covering half of her face and asked, "Excuse me, where does guard Ah Fu live?"

"Our captain lives in the yard on the right."

"Okay, thank you."

She tiptoed into the yard on the right and saw a private room with the door tightly closed. I thought that was where Ah Fu lived.

She ran to the window to look, but the window was tightly closed, without even a gap.

"Is he in there?"

"Meow meow meow..." Xu Mian knocked on the door while imitating the meow of
