Chapter 253 You are really good at passing the buck!

I just felt like a string buried deep in my heart was plucked.

Master Yue quickly took a step back to keep some distance from Xu Yanyi. He turned his head away and said, "The princess is wise. After using the medicine, the common people will be safe. As for the subsequent silver or other problems, I have already told them to ask the Lin family for it. The Lin family will not refuse to give it to them based on this."

Xu Yanyi nodded: "That's good. The Lin family has been injured since they first came to the capital. I'm afraid they won't dare to do anything for a while. I can also be more at peace."

"Do you still want to investigate the theft of silver from the Wuzhou treasury?"

Master Yue asked if she wanted to investigate, he would help.

Xu Yanyi waved her hands: "That has nothing to do with me. Lord Wen will investigate it. Besides, I have to investigate what happened back then myself, so I don't have time to care about other things."

"I will help you as long as I am alive."

Master Yue coughed lightly twice, and a surge of blood wanted to rush up in his throat, but he quickly suppressed it. He didn't want Xu Yanyi to see him coughing up blood and dying at any time.

"That's good. I was waiting for you to say that."

Xu Yanyi patted his arm and handed him the hand warmer. "Take it. You are a patient and weak. I am much stronger than you. I don't need a hand warmer."

Just as Master Yue was about to answer, a servant rushed in hurriedly: "Princess... Oh, no, Princess, something bad has happened, something bad has happened to the prince..."

Xu Yanyi turned around quickly and saw Mu Nanzhou's two personal bodyguards helping Mu Nanzhou come in from the back door. Mu Nanzhou was covered in blood and seemed to be seriously injured.

"What's going on?"

Xu Yanyi frowned and took a few steps forward. She stretched out her hand and was about to touch Mu Nanzhou, but was held back by Mu Nanzhou: "No need for you!"

“…”

Xu Yanyi choked, and Mu Nanzhou gritted his teeth and looked at Master Yue on the side: "Zhan Qiyue, you, you come in with me!"

Zhan Qiyue's eyes moved slightly, and without saying anything, she followed Mu Nanzhou into the room and closed the door.

"What's going on?"

Is there anyone in the capital who can openly hurt Mu Nanzhou?

Xu Yanyi frowned deeply.

She stopped one of Mu Nanzhou's personal guards and asked, "Wasn't Mu Nanzhou in Yingtian Prefecture just now? Why was he injured?"

The guard hesitated for a moment and whispered: "The prince has left people in Yingtian Prefecture, and he also personally warned the Lin family. Later, the prince received a secret letter from the secret guard, saying that something happened in the military camp. The prince went to the military camp without saying a word. Who knew that he would encounter assassins on the way back. That wave of assassins came with great force, each of them was highly skilled in martial arts, and they also captured the military advisor to threaten him. The prince was injured while trying to save the military advisor..."

Another guard came out of the room, looking very anxious: "The prince said that this matter must not be spread out. If it gets out, he will be seriously injured, and the two people in the palace will probably take action. Even if the two people in the palace do not take action, the Xiedan people will come. If they hear that the prince is in trouble at this critical moment, who knows if they will raise an army?"

"Do you know the origins of those assassins?"

Xu Yanyi frowned. To be able to assassinate Mu Nanzhou near the military camp, he must have completely grasped Mu Nanzhou's whereabouts before he dared to take action. And how could the military advisor be in the hands of the assassin?

The two guards shook their heads at the same time, and one of them said, "I don't know the details. The prince died after saving the military advisor and killing the assassins. I don't know the origins of those assassins."

"have no idea?"

Xu Yanyi was very suspicious.

"Princess, I will go get the doctor first..."

The two guards clasped their fists and hurried out.

But before the two of them even reached the door, another servant came in to report: "Princess! Someone has come from the palace. They said they heard that the prince was injured, and they want to visit Prince Nanling!"

Good guys!

The news from the palace came so quickly?

The Lin family's affair was such a big deal, involving the treasury silver of Wuzhou Prefecture and poisoning the people. None of them was a trivial matter, but the two people in the palace had no information at all, as if they didn't know anything. Yet, their people came just after Mu Nanzhou was assassinated and injured?

It seems that the assassin is closely related to the two people in the palace.

Given the little emperor's current situation, he has no way of dispatching so many people to plan and assassinate Mu Nanzhou.

This seems more like the Queen Mother's handiwork.

"Princess, what should we do? Someone has come to the palace. We can't let the news of the prince's injury get out!"

The two guards looked at Xu Yanyi anxiously.

Xu Yanyi narrowed her eyes. She didn't care whether Mu Nanzhou was dead or alive, but if something happened to Mu Nanzhou now, she, the Princess of Nanling, would probably suffer as well. Besides, the relationship between the two had not been sorted out yet. If Mu Nanzhou died, she would have to bear the title of a widow.

Although she didn't mind, the title of widow was not a very pleasant one in ancient times.

Xu Yanyi said calmly: "I'll just hold it."

As soon as he finished speaking, people from the palace arrived.

The people who came were led by the Grand Tutor, and there were dozens of them in the group, all of whom were from the Queen Mother's camp.

The Grand Tutor led a group of people forward and saluted: "You see the Princess."

"No need to be polite. What brought the Grand Tutor and all the others to my princess's residence today?" Xu Yanyi waved her hand. "Xiaoyu, please go to the flower hall for tea."

The Grand Tutor smiled coldly and said, "Princess, it's not necessary. We also heard that the King of Nanling was attacked and seriously injured, so we hurried over to see him to prevent any accidents. Where is the King of Nanling?"

"You are joking, Master. Prince Nanling is fine. Why are you cursing him?"

Xu Yanyi was secretly complaining in her heart, these people never wished well to others, and they even wished that others would die eight or ten times.

But it is true. Mu Nanzhou commands a large army and has an arrogant temper. She is already annoyed by him, not to mention the Queen Mother who has to act according to his wishes.

The tutor's eyes darkened: "Princess, everyone knows that your relationship with the prince is extremely bad now. The prince said that the divorce will not count without the golden seal, so you are still husband and wife. You must be very unhappy in your heart. You wish the prince would die so that you can be free. You should always leave a way out. King Nanling must not die!"

Good guys!

The Master is quite good at passing the buck!

Xu Yanyi's face turned cold: "Grandmaster, the prince was fine originally, but you suddenly brought a lot of people here to see the prince. I think you are just trying to cause chaos in the world, right? What are your intentions? Besides, this is my princess's mansion. Grandmaster, do you want me to listen to you?"

The Grand Tutor raised his chin with a haughty look: "Princess, I am also thinking about Bei Qin and the prince. Please don't stop me! If you delay the prince's medical treatment, it will be bad if something serious happens!"

As he spoke, the Grand Tutor waved his hand and led the people forward.

Just as the two sides were about to start fighting, the tightly closed door at the back suddenly opened, and a man in purple with a strong aura walked out slowly.

"Fuck! How come…"

Xu Yanyi's eyes suddenly widened.
