"Master, Zou Heng is awake."
The messenger walked up to Qin Jue and bowed to him.
"Um"
"Now that he's awake, tell him to come over here."
Qin Jue spoke angrily, and Yan Ke didn't dare to waste a minute, immediately using his light-footed skill to leave the Imperial Hospital.
Not long after, Zou Heng arrived at the Imperial Hospital while coughing.
He walked up to Qin Jue and knelt down directly, facing Qin Jue with remorse as he spoke...
"Please punish me, Master."
"Tell me what exactly happened at that time."
"I don't know either. I only know they've arrived, in two or three groups, probably sent by two different families."
"After the first group of people came up, one of Young Master Jun's guards also followed and helped his subordinates kill the assassins."
"The first and second waves should be the same group of people; their target is you, Master, while the second group's target is the Princess."
Qin Jue narrowed his dangerous eyes when he heard that the second group was after Xiao Xi'er.
"My subordinate knocked the Third Eunuch unconscious."
This is why everyone else was injured, but Sanwako was not.
"Once you recover from your injury, Yu Ying will train you."
"If anything happens to the princess, you will bring her head to me."
"It belongs to..."
"roll"
Before Zou Heng could finish speaking, he heard Qin Jue tell him to get lost, so he quickly got up and left the Imperial Hospital.
After Zou Heng exited the Imperial Hospital, he stopped and looked towards the room where Xiao Xi'er was.
My face was full of guilt, and I kept praying that Xiaoxi would be safe and sound.
Zou Heng stood there for an unknown amount of time before finally leaving.
After seeing Zou Heng leave, the guest looked at Qin Jue and spoke respectfully.
"Lu Yin suffered damage to his heart meridian while protecting the princess and may not survive the day. He is currently unconscious with severe injuries."
"Yes. Give them as many medicinal herbs as they like."
"Yes, Master."
The envoy saw Qin Jue wave his hand and leave the Imperial Hospital.
After the guest left, Qin Jue went into the Imperial Hospital and sat down again on the floor beside Xiao Xi'er's bed.
Holding Xiaoxi'er's little hand
————————
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"
"Oh no, Your Majesty!"
Liu Si rushed into Yingyu Courtyard in a panic, heading straight for Xiao Liyun's room.
Xiao Liyun, who hadn't slept all night, felt a chill run down her spine when she heard Liu Si's words as she ran and shouted.
Seeing Liu Si run in, he quickly went to her side.
He asked urgently, "What happened? Explain yourself clearly."
"Something has happened to the princess."
Hearing Liu Si's words, Xiao Liyun thought of the nightmare she had the night before, and gradually became nervous and worried.
"What exactly happened?"
Xiao Liyun took a deep breath and looked at Liu Si before asking the question.
"This morning, I heard from the eunuchs of the Hall of Mental Cultivation that His Majesty carried the princess back to the palace after the competition last night. The princess was seriously injured, so His Majesty took her directly to the Imperial Hospital."
"Feng instructed Imperial Physicians Lin and Ma to treat the princess."
After Liu Si finished speaking, she looked up at Xiao Liyun. She saw Xiao Liyun prop herself up on the table and plop down on a stool.
"This dream...it actually...it actually came true!"
"Liu Si, quickly help me with my hair and makeup; I'm going to visit the princess."
Liu Si helped Xiao Liyun into the inner room and began to help her change her clothes. After she changed, she combed Xiao Liyun's hair.
After finishing everything, Xiao Liyun immediately left the room.

"Found it"
The voice arrives before the person is seen.
"explain"
As Qin Jue finished speaking, another person appeared in the room.
"Yanfa, Zou Heng is right, there are indeed two groups of people. The first group is from the Southern Kingdom's royal family, and the second group is from her maternal family."
Yu Ying's words didn't need to be explained very clearly for Qin Jue to understand.
"Take good care of Xi'er here."
Are you going to find Nan Tianyi?
Seeing Qin Jue's retreating figure, Yu Ying thought for a moment and then asked the question.
Qin Jue ignored Yu Ying.
Not long after Qin Jue left, Xiao Liyun arrived at the Imperial Hospital. She wanted to go in and see Xiao Xi'er.
However, they were blocked at the door by layers of palace servants.
"Let me in!!!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, you cannot enter."
"Get out of my way, all of you. I want to visit the princess. Is that any of your business?"
Just when the palace servants were at their wits' end with Xiao Liyun, Yu Ying, wearing a mask, walked out from the other side and spoke in a falsetto voice.
"Consort Li, please return."
"I must go in and visit the princess!!!"
Yu Ying stepped forward and saw Xiao Liyun speaking slowly and deliberately, but Xiao Liyun was not listening to Yu Ying and was determined to go in and see Xiao Xi'er.
"If Consort Li does not wish to return, then she shall wait here for His Majesty's return, and refrain from shouting."
"Otherwise... Consort Li wouldn't be able to see Her Highness the Princess."
"What right do you have..."
"If Consort Li doesn't believe me, she can try."
Although Consort Li couldn't see Yu Ying's face through the mask, her voice was filled with threat.
————————
In a house facing the lake in the small courtyard, Nan Tianyi sat by the window, drinking tea and gazing at the lake outside.
My heart was completely unmoved
After finishing his tea, Nan Tianyi watched the leaves slowly falling from the tree and said calmly, "Now that you've arrived, why don't you show yourself?"
After speaking, Nan Tianyi's eyes gradually turned fierce, and he directly threw the teacup in his hand backward.
Qin Jue shattered the teacup with his internal force and then appeared behind Nan Tianyi.
They attacked Nantianyi.
Nan Tianyi dodged Qin Jue's attack, then got up and fought with Qin Jue.
After several exchanges, Nan Tianyi looked at Qin Jue, thought for a moment, and, confirming that he had never seen Qin Jue before, narrowed his peach blossom eyes.
He began to sized up Qin Jue.
Seeing that Nan Tianyi was still sizing him up, Qin Jue attacked Nan Tianyi even faster.
Nan Tianyi was distracted by Qin Jue and didn't notice that Qin Jue had slapped him, causing him to take a half step back and clutch his chest.
"I do not recognize you, do I?"
Qin Jue remained silent, while Nan Tianyi continued, "Could it be that you've come here to spar with me?"
Stay away from her.
Upon hearing Qin Jue's words, Nan Tianyi was completely bewildered. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Qin Jue.
"You are the Emperor of Fenglan"
Seeing that Qin Jue didn't speak, Nan Tian took it as tacit agreement and then attacked Qin Jue.
"Did Yan'er die because of you?!"
It turns out that Nantianyi had almost finished investigating in the past few days.
It was discovered that Xiao Xi'er is a princess, and her mother is the empress, whose name is Xiao Liyan.
Although no matter how hard Nan Tianyi investigated, he couldn't find out where Xiao Liyan came from, he already had a guess after seeing Xiao Xi'er's appearance.
Seeing that Qin Jue had actually come looking for him, he became even angrier.
This time, Nan Tianyi's attack was different from before. Every move he made this time was designed to kill Qin Jue.
