Chapter 56 Don’t run around, wait for me to come back
Seeing this, Zhao Mingde quickly ordered the guards to stop, and then signaled the palace maid to confess: "Tell me, who ordered you to drug Prince Yi?"
The maid then covered her severed finger with her hands and trembled as she prepared to speak: "Yes, yes——"
But at this moment, footsteps were heard, and several eunuchs hurried into the courtyard, interrupting the palace maid's words: "Your Highness Prince Yi, the Emperor has summoned you. Please proceed to Qingyan Pavilion."
Hearing this, Yun Qingshi withdrew his gaze and looked at the few people, frowning involuntarily.
Why did you come at this time instead of earlier?
I'm afraid the emperor also knows about it and wants to hide the person behind the scenes.
Yun Qingshi couldn't help but look at Xiao Jiwu again, and saw that the man was still calm and composed, and didn't seem to be surprised at all.
Xiao Jiwu then said calmly, "I understand."
The leading eunuch smiled and said, "Yes, then I will withdraw first."
After saying this, the eunuchs left quickly again.
Yun Qingshi's gaze fell on the palace maid again, and he saw that the palace maid was covering her severed finger and biting her lips tightly, and it seemed that she was not going to speak again.
Sure enough, when Zhao Mingde asked again, the palace maid didn't even open her mouth.
Xiao Jiwu looked at this scene, then stood up without any expression and went back to his bedroom.
Seeing this, Yun Qingshi chose to follow in silently.
The yard was covered in blood, and he really didn't want to stay there any longer.
When Yun Qingshi followed into the bedroom, he saw that the villain Xiao had already sat down in front of the mirror. When he saw him come in, Xiao Jiwu held out the white veil to him again.
"Eleven, put it on for this king."
There was actually no different emotion on Xiao Jiwu's face, but Yun Qingshi could feel that the villain Xiao was not as indifferent as he looked.
Even if I'm not sad, I'm disappointed.
Disappointment again and again.
Yun Qingshi's mood inevitably became slightly depressed. He quickly went over to take off the veil and carefully helped Xiao Jiwu tie it on his eyes. Then he said softly, "Your Highness, it's done."
Xiao Jiwu's slender fingertips brushed the white gauze, and he pulled Yun Qingshi to exchange a light kiss. He then stood up and instructed the young man, "Don't run around. Wait for me to come back."
Yun Qingshi nodded in response: "I understand."
Seeing this, Xiao Jiwu nodded slightly and quickly turned and left the bedroom.
Yun Qingshi watched the other person leave, then slowly moved to lie down on the couch.
There was a window next to the couch, and he could clearly hear the crying of the palace maid, but after a while, the crying gradually became quieter until it became farther and farther away and could no longer be heard at all.
As Yun Qingshi lay there, he gradually fell asleep again...

At this time, on the other side, Xiao Jiwu arrived at Qingyan Pavilion and saw Xiao Jinzhi standing beside the desk and writing at the door.
Xiao Jinzhi, the current Prince Rui, is his second brother.
Now it is self-evident who did it.
Xiao Jiwu calmly withdrew his gaze, walked straight into Qingyan Pavilion, walked to the desk, and saluted towards Xiao Lingan: "Father."
Xiao Lingan put down the red brush in his hand after hearing this, raised his eyes and said with a smile: "Wu'er is here."
Xiao Jiwu nodded: "Yes."
Xiao Jinzhi, who was standing next to the desk, also spoke: "Third brother."
Xiao Jiwu responded coldly: "Second brother is here too."
Xiao Jinzhi looked at Xiao Jiwu with a smile and quickly responded, "Yes, I'm here too."
Xiao Jiwu ignored Xiao Jinzhi and turned to Xiao Lingan again, "I wonder what your Majesty has summoned me for?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ling'an sighed, his face displaying a hint of false concern. He said, "I just heard that the prince accidentally got into something bad last night, and I'm a little worried."
"Let the imperial physician examine you." Without waiting for Xiao Jiwu's response, Xiao Ling'an continued to order outside: "Come, call in Imperial Physician Wu."
The eunuch's response soon came from outside the hall: "Yes."
A moment later, another imperial physician entered Qingyan Pavilion.
Xiao Lingan then signaled the imperial physician, "Take Prince Yi's pulse and check on the health of our prince."
"Yes." The imperial physician quickly agreed.
Xiao Jiwu had no choice but to sit on the light couch and let the imperial physician take his pulse.
After a moment, the imperial physician withdrew his hand and reported to the current emperor: "Your Majesty, the prince is in good health, his pulse is stable, and there is nothing serious."
Xiao Ling'an looked relieved upon hearing this: "That's good. I can rest assured now. You can go now."
"Yes." Doctor Wu responded and quickly retreated.
Xiao Lingan then turned to Xiao Jiwu and said, "These palace maids are really getting bolder and bolder. They actually dared to set their sights on my son."
"Don't worry, Wu'er. You don't have to worry about this matter. I will order the execution of that palace maid to serve as a warning to others. I will see who dares to set their sights on you in the future."
Xiao Jinzhi was standing beside the desk at this time, with a look of pride on his face, and his eyes were full of contempt when he looked at Xiao Jiwu.
After hearing this, Xiao Jiwu lowered his eyes, not at all surprised.
Similar things happened to him countless times when he was young, and the result was no different today.
However, he is no longer the powerless Third Prince.
He doesn't need anyone to seek justice for him, he will seek justice for himself.
Xiao Jiwu then replied calmly, "Thank you, Father."
Hearing this, Xiao Ling'an patted Xiao Jiwu's shoulder with satisfaction, and then said lovingly, "Okay, it's been a while since we father and son have had lunch together. Wu'er, you can stay and have lunch before going back."
Xiao Jiwu: "Your Majesty, obey your command."

Speaking of Yun Qingshi, he woke up again and was woken up by Zhao Mingde.
Yun Qingshi slowly sat up, rubbed his eyes, and asked in confusion: "Eunuch Zhao, what's wrong?"
Zhao Mingde quickly explained, "Your Majesty invited the prince to have lunch, and the prince sent a message back, so Master Eleven had to have lunch on his own. It's already noon, so I woke you up."
Yun Qingshi nodded, showing no objection, and said, "Then let's serve the food."
Zhao Mingde agreed: "Okay."
A moment later, Yun Qingshi was faced with a table full of delicious food.
But, unusually, he didn't have much of an appetite.
But man is iron and rice is steel, so he still planned to eat something. He didn't eat breakfast, so he couldn't go hungry for lunch.
Yun Qingshi casually picked up some light dishes and ate them.
I basically didn't touch the meat dishes and only ate half of what I usually eat.
After lunch, Yun Qingshi went back to bed and took a short nap.
When Yun Qingshi woke up from his nap, he looked at the empty house and his mind became active again.
It just so happens that Xiao Jiwu is not here at the moment, and the guards in this palace should not be as good as him in martial arts, right?
He didn't have any other thoughts in mind, he just wanted to go and see the boy from last night.
Mainly, there are some guesses that he wants to verify.
It's his head. Why does he still feel stuffy and tired after sleeping for so long?
Is the aftereffect of something like that so strong?
Yun Qingshi pondered it for a moment and then stopped thinking about it. After a moment, his eyes fell on a side window of the bedroom...
