Qiao Tianjing rushed back to the mansion without stopping and entered the Qingzhu Courtyard, his face showing fatigue.

Han Yaxian came out upon hearing the sound.

"Qiao Lang!"

She cried out in great worry and hurried forward.

She was worried all night last night. This morning, Qiao Lang rushed back and only had time to wash her face and change clothes before rushing back to the palace.

She felt sorry for Qiao Lang for working non-stop, but she also knew that his father was not at home, and as the eldest son, Qiao Lang had to take care of the entire family.

After entering the house, the maids all left. Seeing Han Yaxian running around for him, Qiao Tianjing couldn't help but hug her tightly from behind.

"Xian'er, I'm sorry to have made you worried."

Smelling the familiar fragrance of his wife, Qiao Tianjing's tense nerves finally found a moment of relief.

Han Yaxian shook her head and said softly, "I'm just sitting at home peacefully, how can you be running around and worrying outside?"

"Qiao Lang, you are really exhausted. How about going to sleep for a while?"

"Let's go to mom's place for lunch. Mom is worried about you and has sent people to check on you several times."

Qiao Tianjing rested his chin on Han Yaxian's shoulder, rubbed her cheek gently, and then nodded obediently.

"Okay, I'll listen to Xian'er."

Han Yaxian blushed slightly, "Okay, go quickly."

Qiao Tianjing finally had a good sleep. When he woke up, the room was a little dark.

He was stunned for a while, then he sat up immediately after coming to his senses.

"Xian'er?"

The sound of footsteps was heard immediately, and Han Yaxian walked in with a smile.

"Did you get enough sleep?"

Qiao Tianjing is a young man after all, and after a good sleep, he immediately became full of energy.

I just didn’t expect that I would fall asleep until it was dark.

"Xian'er, what time is it?"

Han Yaxian smiled mischievously when she heard this, "You are quite clever. It's just in time for dinner. Get up quickly."

By the time the couple arrived at the main courtyard, a sumptuous dinner had already been prepared.

“Brother, sister-in-law!”

Qiao Jiaojiao smiled and took small steps towards him.

"Jiaojiao, have you rested well?"

Han Yaxian bent down, picked up Qiao Jiaojiao, and touched her little nose affectionately.

Qiao Jiaojiao nodded immediately, "I've had a good rest! I can eat three bowls of rice right away!"

[Ah! Sister-in-law is so nice! I like sister-in-law the most! ]

Upon hearing this, Qiao Tianjing looked at Qiao Jiaojiao with amusement.

The family sat down to eat. After yesterday's shock, today's warmth and peace seemed particularly precious.

After dinner, Qiao Jiaojiao glanced at Qiao Tianjing, and the two of them went to the study room tacitly.

As soon as the door closed, Qiao Jiaojiao immediately revealed a look of shock, and looked at Qiao Tianjing and said impatiently:

"Brother, this is such a big melon!"

Qiao Tianjing's expression also became serious, still finding it hard to believe.

"Combined with the presence of those young assassins yesterday, if it is really as Sheng Xiuran said, then Princess Yu Liu, Zhou Bo and those northerners really played a big game!"

Qiao Jiaojiao nodded in agreement.

[If this is true, this plot to seize the country spanned fourteen years! It's creepy, really creepy! ]

[Fortunately, there is a way to verify whether this matter is true or not! ]

Thinking of this, Qiao Jiaojiao looked up at Qiao Tianjing and said frankly:

"Brother, I have a paternity test talisman, the kind that can determine whether two people are related by blood, but the conditions are a bit tricky!"

Qiao Tianjing had been waiting for this sentence for a long time. Hearing it, he looked curious and said, "Little sister, tell me about it."

Qiao Jiaojiao called up the Merit Mall, took another look to confirm, and then said, "We need one drop of blood from each person to be identified. This is a bit difficult."

[This condition would be easy for anyone else, but one of them is the emperor and the other is the prince, it is not easy to take their blood. ]

[Especially Emperor Yong, his body is worth millions of gold, even if a little skin is scratched off, it would be a big deal, let alone taking a drop of his blood? ]

[Tsk, let me see if there is anything else! ]

Qiao Jiaojiao tilted her head and searched the mall desperately. She saw it from beginning to end, and there was only one paternity test. She was immediately deflated.

[Ah, good things take time! ]

Qiao Tianjing looked thoughtful when he heard this.

"Little sister, can blood test be used to identify relatives? I heard that this method is used among the people. If the situation gets out of hand, His Majesty might use blood test to identify relatives."

Qiao Jiaojiao immediately shook her head, "No, this has no scientific basis!"

Qiao Tianjing tilted his head in confusion, "What is the scientific basis?"

Qiao Jiaojiao choked slightly, "Uh... What I mean is that this method is not accurate. If we really want to use blood test to identify relatives, there is no guarantee that the Second Prince will not do something wrong."

Speaking of this, Qiao Jiaojiao really had a headache.

[Sheng Xiuran did send a "sharp sword", but the sword is hidden in the sheath, so it is really hard to pull out! ]

[The paternity test is only the first step. The next step is to plan for exposure, and to make the cuckolded dog emperor believe it, and then stab the second prince with the sword. Just ask yourself if it is difficult! ]

[Nothing is difficult in this world as long as you are willing to give up... Pah, pah, pah, I want to be full of chicken blood! ]

Qiao Tianjing: “…”

"Brother, let's take it step by step. The second prince's blood...is actually not that difficult."

Qiao Tianjing lowered his head to look at Qiao Jiaojiao's cunning little face, and his eyes lit up.

really.

Isn’t the second prince going to use a self-torture tactic?

If we want to use this strategy, unless we make some holes in our bodies and make them bleed, how can we convince people of their trust?

It seems that I need to write a letter to Dad as soon as possible, and let Dad or my second brother find the right opportunity to collect some blood!

One drop is good, two drops are enough, three drops are foolproof, and the more the better!

As for the container for the blood... a perfume bottle would be just right! And it was in the dowry that Meng Guxue brought over!

When Qiao Jiaojiao saw Qiao Tianjing's face shining with wisdom, she knew that they were thinking the same thing.

[Hehe, there is always a way out, just take it slow! ]

[As for Emperor Yong’s blood...]

"Brother, the prince is getting married in May. Should we give him a big gift?"

Qiao Jiaojiao suddenly looked up and said with an "innocent" look on her face.

[Since we are all members of the Cannon Fodder Alliance, how can we, the Qiao family, be the only one to handle such a big matter? ]

[The Crown Prince is the biological son of Emperor Yong, so let him figure out a way to get the blood! But the Crown Prince is also a smart guy, so we need to find a suitable reason to convince him to get the blood! ]

[Tsk tsk tsk, I can't wait to see the prince's expression when he finds out about this secret! Haha, it must be really exciting! ]

Upon hearing this, Qiao Tianjing's lips slightly raised, and the brother and sister looked at each other.

Qiao Jiaojiao: (????)

Qiao Tianjing: (─?─)

Hehehe.......

East Palace.

The prince, who was listening to the secret guard's detailed report on what happened at the orphanage last night, suddenly shuddered.

The fourth prince turned around in confusion: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

The prince touched the fourth prince's head and said with a smile: "Brother is fine."

I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a chill down my spine...
