Ying Huaiji didn't say much or ask any further questions, and let the two of them leave.
Both the father and the son felt dazed and stunned by the prince's words.
When he returned home, it was already dawn, but he was still worried. When it was almost time, he asked someone to call Xiao Cunyu over.
Xiao Cunyu looked in good spirits.
"Xiao Qi, what did you do in prison?" asked Minister Xiao.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cunyu touched his nose and said, "You know? When did the prince tell you? It's nothing, actually. That fake prince consort said I had a close relationship with him. I thought it would endanger the Xiao family, so I killed him. His Highness was very loyal and didn't hold me responsible."
"Cut, chop it off?" Xiao Jingyun's brows twitched fiercely. "You, personally?"
"Of course. It's such a big deal. Would I really shout it all over the city and ask others to do it?" Xiao Cunyu said bluntly, "I was thinking of telling you, but I was afraid you'd be scared. But I see you look good today, like you've just been through some kind of trauma. If you can still handle it, I can tell you about it too, so you don't get stimulated again in a couple of days. It's not good for your health."
It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one.
Coincidentally, they were also hiding something from Xiao Qi, and they were afraid that she would be scared!
Who would have thought that Xiao Qi was also hiding something big?!
"Then go ahead and talk. After you've finished, we'll have something to talk about." So, let's just talk about it!
Go for it!
"That's right... my mother is no ordinary woman. She was the only legitimate princess of the fallen king of the Li Kingdom. She accidentally fell into my father's hands. Of course, it's also possible that the king of the fallen kingdom discovered that my father was rich and easy to control, so he used the beauty trap to get his millions of dollars."
"Now the crown prince of the fallen Li Kingdom still wants me to inherit his unfounded throne in the future. That fake prince consort is one of his spies. But don't even think about becoming a royal relative, because I think those fallen crown princes are nothing but trash. They've been hiding for so many years and haven't achieved anything. They're useless. We'd better stay in Feng Kingdom and stay here, or we'll get our heads chopped off."
"..." Minister Xiao was dumbfounded.
Xiao Jingyun was not much better.
Trembling, he took out a few pills from his recent stash and stuffed them into his father's hand.
"My father hid my gender from me, probably to guard against them and to strike at these former members of the Li State at a critical moment." Xiao Cunyu added.
Minister Xiao took the medicine, but still felt like his heart was about to jump out of his stomach.
"Thanks to my father, our Xiao family has an unspeakable relationship with the prince of the fallen country. Our status is shaky. Everyone should think of a solution as soon as possible!" Xiao Cunyu said with a numb look on his face.
She was no longer panicking.
What's the use of panicking?
"Your mother...your mother really is..." The uncle covered his chest with his hands.
"Don't blame me, I have no choice. There's no point in being anxious. I have a lot of lists of spies in my hands. If nothing works, we can catch these people, follow the clues, and find ways to wipe out the lair of the prince of the fallen country first. This way, we can solve the problem once and for all!" Xiao Cunyu boasted.
"You think it's easy! There is no wall that is impenetrable! This matter can be concealed for a while but not forever!" Minister Xiao felt dizzy and weak in the knees.
This is much more serious than Xiao Qilang being a woman!
Xiao Jingyun's face also turned pale: "Dad, please keep your voice down."
"I can't... control myself!" Minister Xiao wanted to pinch his own neck. "My fifth brother... oh my, I don't think I'll live much longer. I might as well go find your grandfather now!"
