Qiao Zhongguo immediately hugged Qiao Jiaojiao and stepped aside. The Fourth Prince was standing next to the Crown Prince and couldn't help but clutch the Crown Prince's sleeve when he heard what he said.

The Crown Prince noticed the Fourth Prince's nervousness, quietly held his little palm, and smiled gently at him.

Upon seeing this, the Fourth Prince immediately straightened his back.

He is not afraid because the prince is protecting him!

Besides, he also has to protect Sister Qiao!

The sound of iron chains clanking was heard. Qiao Jiaojiao looked over and saw Di Zaiying walking in with a numb expression.

The blood on his face had not been washed off, and he looked so disheveled that it was difficult to see his true appearance.

Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't help but mutter.

[Di Zaiying is a pure northerner. If you wash his face thoroughly, the difference in his appearance should still be noticeable.]

[He has been lurking in the Great Yong Dynasty for so long, and finally entered the palace, but he hasn't seen the second prince yet, right? ]

[If I hadn't suddenly appeared today, Di Zaiying would probably have been able to tolerate it. ]

"Kneel down!" the guard shouted beside him.

Di Zaiying sneered. He knew that he was doomed to die, so he no longer concealed his hatred for Emperor Yong.

"Dog Emperor!"

"shut up!"

When the prince saw Di Zaiying speaking rudely, he immediately stopped him.

Emperor Yong waved his hand, his expression unexpectedly calm.

"Di Zaiying, I ordered people to check your background and there is no problem. Why did you want to assassinate the Fourth Prince?"

Di Zaiying continued to sneer. He ignored Emperor Yong and looked around. Suddenly, his eyes fell on Qiao Zhongguo who was standing beside him.

Qiao Zhongguo...

When Qiao Zhongguo fought to the capital of the Northern Kingdom, he stood beside Yu Liu and glanced at him from afar.

It is truly majestic and upright.

If it weren't for Qiao Zhongguo, why would Yu Liu have to come to the Yong Dynasty to marry and become the dog emperor's plaything!

Thinking of this, Di Zaiying's face burst into strong hatred. His eyes slowly fell on Qiao Jiaojiao in Qiao Zhongguo's arms, and suddenly he shouted:

"Monster! The Qiao family's daughter is a monster! She can't be hurt!"

"I stabbed her with a poison needle, but it all hurt me! She's intact! She's a monster!"

[What a monster! That's the rebound talisman I bought with my merits! It's specially designed to defeat ruthless people like you! ]

Qiao Jiaojiao knew that Di Zaiying would definitely not let her go!

When Emperor Yong heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, "What nonsense!"

Di Zaiying looked excited. He had already lost everything. At least he had to take one of his enemies away so that he would have the face to see Yu Liu!

"I'm not talking nonsense! The Fourth Prince saw it with his own eyes!"

He stretched out his hand stained with black blood, trying hard to show the wound on it.

"I made all these cuts on the Qiao family's daughter! But the wounds all appeared on my body!"

"Dog Emperor, the Qiao family has a girl who is invulnerable to swords and guns, aren't you afraid?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yong looked gloomy and did not immediately reprimand Di Zaiying for his ridiculous remarks.

Seeing this, Qiao Zhongguo slowly frowned.

What does this mean, Your Majesty?

Are they going to suspect their Jiaojiao just because of a mere person with ulterior motives?

Qiao Jiaojiao also cursed inwardly: [This dog emperor is so suspicious! ]

When Di Zaiying saw that Emperor Yong didn't say anything, he became more motivated.

"Dog Emperor, if you don't believe me, just take the needle and try it and you will know!"

"The daughter of the Qiao family has a trick! Do you dare to keep such a person?"

When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, he was furious.

Qiao Jiaojiao was not afraid when she heard this.

[The effect of the rebound talisman can only last for a quarter of an hour, and that time has already passed! ]

Even though Qiao Zhongguo knew that Qiao Jiaojiao was confident, he still couldn't bear to let her suffer even the slightest harm.

He sent Qiao Jiaojiao to Qiao Tianjing's arms, then knelt down in front of Emperor Yong and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty, this Di Zaiying's identity is unknown and his intentions are ill-intentioned. His words are so heartbreaking that he clearly wants to put my daughter to death!"

"My little girl is so young, she is just learning to speak, how innocent she is. I think Di Zaiying is targeting me."

"I have worked diligently and conscientiously in the court, and have always been on good terms with others. The only people in this world who have such hatred for me can only be the villains of the Northern Kingdom!"

As soon as Qiao Zhongguo said this, Di Zaiying's face showed a moment of panic.

When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, her admiration for her father instantly reached its peak!

[Dad, dad! How can you be so smart! You got it right! This Di Zaiying is from the north! ]

Qiao Zhongguo bowed his head and continued, "Your Majesty, can you please clear Di Zaiying's face and see his true face?"

[Ahhh! You hit the nail on the head again! My father is both wise and brave, and he is invincible! ]

Emperor Yong's eyes flickered slightly, and then he nodded, "Huang Pei, clean your face!"

"yes!"

Eunuch Huang hurriedly made arrangements, asked the young eunuch to bring a basin of water, and said to the imperial guards: "Hold him down!"

A total of five people went up and pressed Di Zaiying to the ground. Eunuch Huang dipped a towel in water and wiped Di Zaiying's face carefully.

Di Zaiying reacted violently, and kept yelling, "Get out! Get out!"

After Eunuch Huang finished wiping, he signaled the Imperial Guards to let go. Di Zaiying stood up suddenly, and his face was clearly displayed in front of everyone.

With slightly sunken eye sockets, narrow eyes, especially the high nose bridge and thin lips, she looks exactly like a typical northerner!

"You are really a thief from the Northern Kingdom!" Qiao Zhongguo shouted in a low voice, "Tell me, who are you and what do you want to do by sneaking into the palace!"

Di Zaying was filled with resentment. He had already thought highly of Qiao Zhongguo, but he didn't expect that he still underestimated him!

"Qiao Zhongguo, don't think that exposing me can cover up the fact that your daughter is a monster!"

He was very good at grasping the key points, and he was determined to drag Qiao Jiaojiao into the water.

Just when the situation was at a stalemate, a childish voice suddenly rang out.

“That’s not the case!”

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the Fourth Prince standing out with a slightly pale face.

"Father, I have something to say."

Emperor Yong raised his eyebrows slightly.

He did not care much about his youngest son. When he was four years old, he seldom asked about his affairs. The only person who arranged for him was Di Zaiying, the enlightenment teacher.

Oh, he remembered that every afternoon, someone would hand in Xiaosi's homework.

But he never even looked at it and disposed of it along with the waste paper.

In his impression, his youngest son was raised to be too delicate by the queen. He always spoke in a soft voice and was very unpleasant.

Emperor Yong was somewhat surprised that the Fourth Prince would take the initiative to speak out.

"Well, tell me about it."

The Fourth Prince, like all sons in the world, has a special admiration and worship for his father.

But he knew very well that his father didn't like him at all, so he was always cautious in front of his father.

This time, his father personally found a teacher to teach him. He was so happy that he practiced calligraphy every day and would not rest until his wrists were swollen and painful.

I don't know if my father has seen his handwriting, but my mother praised him, saying that the prince had to be six years old to write like him...

My thoughts gradually drifted away, but were quickly pulled back by the Fourth Prince.

He looked determined. Sister Qiao still had to rely on him to protect her today!
