"If this person is not eliminated, how can the royal palace and the Miao family really break off relations?" Ni Yueshan said with a matter-of-fact expression.
Jing Yuchen frowned, "Then what's the difference between you and taking human life lightly?"
Ni Yueshan snorted disdainfully, "Go out and find out what kind of person Miao Li is. If it weren't for his status as a member of the Miao family, how many times do you think he deserved to die?"
Jing Yuchen fell silent. Zou Yangyao coughed and said, "You've gone off topic again. The most important thing for us now is to think of a way. If the Miao family traces the palace to the palace, how can the palace escape suspicion?"
Ni Yueshan picked up a piece of cake from the stone table, brought it to his mouth and took a bite. "You're the one who did the murder, so if you can hide it, that's all that matters, right? There was no evidence left that day, and no one saw it was you, so what are you afraid of?"
Ni Yueshan waved, and the three of them immediately came to Ni Yueshan. Ni Yueshan lowered his voice and said, "So during this period of time, we just need to be careful that there are ears on the other side of the wall, and we won't be discovered!"
Afterwards, the three of them sat back down and kept their distance.
"But the Ministry of Justice has taken over this matter?" Jing Yuchen looked at Zou Yangyao with a frown. He had been in a coma for some time and there were many things that needed to be caught up.
Zou Yangyao shook his head: "The Miao family took over themselves, with the assistance of the Ministry of Justice!"
The Miao family took over the case themselves, which meant that they would directly place the suspicion on the palace and would not look for other sources to find the palace.
Jing Yuchen looked at Ni Yueshan, who had already finished a cake. "Okay, now you've made up for all the memories you need. You can go eat something first, then walk around the mansion slowly and exercise. Maybe you can go to court tomorrow."
Ni Yueshan patted the debris on his hands and stood up, as if he didn't take the matter of Miao Li to heart.
Jing Yuchen also stood up and said, "General Zou, I'm very sorry to have troubled you during this period. Please keep an eye on the Lin Mansion to prevent the Miao family from causing trouble for the Lin Mansion, or for anyone in the army to cause trouble for Brother Lin."
Zou Yangyao understood. He stood up and looked at Xiao Chuer beside him: "Do you need to prescribe any new prescription for the prince? If not, we will go back first."
"For things like prescribing prescriptions, let the imperial physician come. Let's go!"
Zou Yangyao and Xiao Chuer left together. Ni Yueshan also agreed: "Since you just woke up, your body must still be weak. It's a good opportunity to have the imperial physician come to see you. The Queen Mother will also know that you've woken up. Let's send that Imperial Physician Zhou! He's on the Queen Mother's side."
Jing Yuchen reached out and pulled Ni Yueshan into his arms. Ni Yueshan bumped into his chest, feeling strong and tough. She looked at him and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing?"
Jing Yuchen grabbed Ni Yueshan's chin and asked with a smile, "Didn't you say that I'm weak? If I don't show it, won't you misunderstand me to death?"
Ni Yueshan pounded Jing Yuchen on the chest: "You frivolous fellow! Hurry up and call the imperial physician to see you!"
Finally, Doctor Zhou was invited over, Ni Yueshan stood aside, and Jing Yuchen lay on the bed with a weak expression.
After paying his respects, Doctor Zhou stepped forward to take the patient's pulse. Ni Yueshan stood aside, waiting silently. Only after Doctor Zhou withdrew his hand and stood up did he sigh and say, "Your Highness is still not fully recovered. He needs a long period of rest."
As he spoke, he stroked his beard and looked at Ni Yueshan: "Princess, I'm going to write a prescription for the prince."
"Thank you!"
After the imperial physician left, Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen and said, "From now on, no matter what, you must not take any more risks. Your body is your own, and your life is your own!"
Seeing Ni Yueshan's serious look, Jing Yuchen responded helplessly, "I know, I know."
Jing Yuchen obviously didn't have the patience to listen any further. Ni Yueshan glared at him fiercely and said, "I'll go get Xue'er so you two can have a good time together."
Then Ni Yueshan took a step forward and went to hug Xueer.
After Doctor Zhou left, he informed Miao Qinghua of Jing Yuchen's physical condition. Because of Miao Li's death, Miao Qinghua disguised herself as an ordinary citizen and stayed in the Miao Mansion.
After hearing about Jing Yuchen's condition, he snorted, "I always thought he was pretending, but I didn't expect him to be seriously injured. This self-torture trick is really well played."
She narrowed her eyes as she spoke, "Did he and the prince really break up?"
Seeing Miao Qinghua's terribly gloomy face, the old woman sitting beside her said, "Li'er's death was so unjust. He was still in his prime, still able to fight in the battlefield and serve the country. He died at such a young age, leaving behind me, an old woman, and that child who can't speak..."
As he spoke, he began to wipe his tears sadly and cry softly.
The person who spoke was the Miao family's mother, Ni Yueshan's grandmother. She was wiping her tears and was extremely sad.
Looking at the white-haired old woman, Miao Qinghua was helpless. "I now suspect that this assassin was not sent by someone else, but Ni Yueshan, my brother's niece! Ni Yueshan is half a member of the Tian family. Now that the Tian family is the dominant force, she wants to help the Jing family!"
Miao Qinghua listened to the old lady crying non-stop. She held her forehead with her hand, feeling a headache. "Help mother to rest and try to persuade her to stop crying. She is too old to bear the sadness!"
Finally, the old lady was helped away, and Miao Qinghua's gaze fell on several women in the backyard who were kneeling and throwing paper money and crying softly.
Her eyes swirled and then fell on Miao Huitao.
She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Back then, you entered the Crown Prince's residence and became a concubine. After being divorced, have you been staying in the Miao residence?"
Miao Huitao stiffened at the question and spoke with a blush, "Back then, the Crown Prince and Crown Princess never considered having Huitao serve them properly. Even though she was a concubine, she was no different from a servant in the mansion. She barely saw the then Crown Prince all day."
