"Who?"
The guards of Prince Chen's mansion drew their swords and rebuked.
"Little one..."
The sharp sword blade reflected the moonlight, making it extremely dazzling.
"Who is it?"
Killing intent bursts out!
Qiao Zi took a deep breath and said, "I am the servant of the Fourth Young Master of the Yongshun Marquisate. The Fourth Young Master has vomited blood, and I am here to ask for the eldest young lady's help... No, that's not right. It's Princess Chen who is visiting the Yongshun Marquisate!"
"You wait here!"
The guards knew that this matter could not be delayed.
Qiao Zi looked at the guards walking away and felt like his heart was about to stop beating.
Fortunately, the eldest lady gave him the black jade pendant of Prince Chen before she left. Otherwise, not only would he not be able to leave the Yongshun Marquis Mansion smoothly tonight, but he would also not be able to come to Prince Chen Mansion smoothly after curfew.
At this moment in the study, Xiao Xian listened to the report and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"It's curfew now. How did that kid manage to get to Prince Chen's Mansion?"
Guangping didn't say anything.
He was just the captain of the guards, there were some things he could say but others he couldn't.
Xiao Xian had a smile on his face, as if he had thought of something interesting, and said, "Let's go to Qinghe Garden!"
There was nothing unusual in Qinghe Garden. Xiao Xian stood outside the gate, his deep eyes without a trace of emotion.
"Your Majesty, you?"
Seeing Xiao Xian about to jump onto the wall, Guangping was slightly surprised.
"Don't make any noise."
He was as light as a swallow, and with a few leaps, he quickly landed on the roof of Qu Li's bedroom.
Pick up a tile and look down.
The room was pitch black, and with the curtains covering the room, it was impossible to tell whether the people inside were asleep or not.
He listened carefully but heard no breathing sound, which made Xiao Xian suspicious.
At this time, Qu Li, who was busy in the space, immediately held his breath and slipped out of the space when he felt someone on the roof.
Xiao Xian jumped down, opened the door bolt with a dagger, and pushed the door open.
The moonlight spread all over the ground, stretching his figure very long.
He walked slowly to the bedside, step by step. The moment he opened the curtain, a sharp dagger stabbed at him.
His pupils trembled, he dodged to the side, and then grabbed the slender wrist.
"It's the King!"
As early as when he came in, Qu Li had guessed from the incense on his body that the person coming was that scumbag Xiao Xian. She did this on purpose to teach him a lesson and tell him not to be a thief in the future.
And they are not a serious couple, so it is better not to sneak into her bedroom easily.
Qu Li seemed to be frightened and looked at him fixedly.
"You came here late at night, what's going on?"
"Qu Wenzhao vomited blood, and his servant came to report it late at night."
Qu Li nodded, quickly put on her shoes and prepared to leave, but he stopped her.
"Why is my jade pendant in the hands of that servant?"
"My brother's legs are lame and he's now blind!"
The wrinkles between Xiao Xian's brows deepened, and there was a hint of meaning in his eyes.
"Chronic poison, like a boiling frog in warm water!"
In the moonlight, he saw the coldness in Qu Li's eyes.
Inexplicably, he felt as if there was something extra in his heart, but before he could grasp what it was, it disappeared in an instant.
"Who does Your Highness think could be the one who poisons people day in and day out all year round?"
Xiao Xian's eyes dimmed completely.
Although he did not personally witness how she treated Feng Yi that day, he heard the prescription she wrote.
Afterwards, he asked Doctor Mu about it. Doctor Mu said that it was the best prescription and asked him every possible way to find out who the doctor who prescribed it was.
"I will go with you!"
There was no obvious surprise on Qu Li's face. On the contrary, his eyes were full of vigilance, which was even piercing.
Xiao Xian's face darkened and his tone was very impatient.
"Why don't you hurry up? Are you planning to collect Qu Wenzhao's body?"
Collect your sister's body!
Qu Li spat in her heart, and when he looked over, she said, "If you hadn't stopped me, how could it have been delayed until now?"
Not only was Xiao Xian not angry at all, the wrinkles between his brows miraculously smoothed out.
The two of them rushed to the Yongshun Marquis' Mansion as quickly as possible, and the imperial physician from the palace also arrived with them.
Qu Li raised an eyebrow, suppressed his surprise, turned his eyes to look at Xiao Xian, and thanked him sincerely.
Xiao Xian didn't say much and got off the carriage first.
He fully expected Qu Li to ask him to help her, but he saw her holding onto the carriage and jumping off the carriage with nimble movements.
His expression darkened again at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Qu Li raised his eyes and frowned suspiciously.
This guy must be able to perform Sichuan Opera face-changing, right?
The entire Yongshun Marquis Mansion was brightly lit. Fang was guarding the pine courtyard, feeling increasingly uneasy.
When she heard that Qu Li came with Xiao Xian, her face turned blue.
Before he could think about it, he was about to salute Xiao Xian, but was pushed away by Qu Li, who had a worried look on his face.
Fang was not paying attention for a moment and fell to the ground in a mess.
Hatred overflowed from her eyes, and Xiao Xian saw it all.
Qu Li rushed in and saw the pools of black blood, his heart raging with rage.
She rushed out and kicked Fang who had just gotten up.
She used both skill and force in this kick.
Fang felt a pain in her chest as if it was torn apart by a pair of hands. She fell to the ground in a mess again. Then there was a "crack" sound. Her arm was broken!
"If anything happens to Wen Zhao, I will never forgive you!"
Qu Li's eyes were sharp, and his whole body was shrouded in coldness, making him look like a sharp sword.
Fang's breathing was rapid, "Li'er..."
"Shut up!"
Xiao Xian looked at Qu Li deeply and signaled the imperial physician to come in.
Fang's lips were tightly pursed into a line, her heart beating wildly.
