After a few days of recuperation, Zhao Xiaofei had almost recovered. The princess and Li Sihong took turns caring for him these days. The princess, in particular, learned how to cook and make soup with Liu Gongzheng every day. She fed Zhao Xiaofei soup every day. Since Li Sihong was recognized by the princess as a concubine, and even a noble concubine, she paid her respects to the princess every morning and evening, asking for her instructions on everything. The princess requested that her husband accompany her for the first 20 days of each month, and that she be the only one to accompany her for the remaining ten days.
Zhao Xiaofei saw it all and knew immediately that this was Liu Gongzheng's idea for the princess. Li Sihong used to live in the Misty Rain Tower, and he'd visit her during the day and accompany the princess at night. Now that she's officially a concubine, she doesn't have as much free time. Li Sihong is trapped. Yet, this silly woman is still so happy every day, paying her respects to the princess morning and night. You'll never be able to defeat a woman from the palace. I was right back then.
Zhao Xiaofei didn't understand Li Sihong's thoughts because he didn't understand concubines. Concubines were divided into different levels: noble concubines, common concubines, lowly concubines, and maid concubines. Noble concubines were of higher status (usually related to the female members of the family). Commonly known as "little wives," they could raise their own children and even act as their own mothers. It could be said that besides the princess, she had the highest status in the prince consort's mansion.
After watching the "palace fighting drama" for two days and adjusting his mood, Zhao Xiaofei planned to go back to modern society to find out what was going on. Who wanted to kill him? Or was it just an accident? However, no matter how he thought about it, it didn't seem like an accident. The opponent's kung fu was too good, and killing him would be an accident. It was an accident that he survived. Most people would not spend so much money to kill him. If he died, Jiang Xiaomei would definitely not get the property. She hadn't even married him! His eldest brother would not do that either. He knew how he felt about him. And he didn't have that intention at all. His wish was to be the most famous surgeon in the country. There were only three people left who knew that he was rich and had antiques. Professor Qian, Professor Hong, and Zheng Wenjuan. Which of the three would kill him?
Zhao Xiaofei thought that he could go back and discuss it with his eldest brother. It would be better to keep it a secret from Jiang Xiaomei and his mother. He didn't want to make them worry. He told the princess that he would go to Yanyu Tower to practice in seclusion and come back in seven or eight days. The princess nodded in agreement. The Jiajing Emperor of the Zhu family liked to seek immortality and lived for a long time. It was normal for the prince consort to like this, and the prince consort didn't take any elixirs, but just sat in meditation. So the princess would not object. The princess explained that the prince consort didn't ask her to report the assassin to the authorities. Zhao Xiaofei said: The emperor is busy with all kinds of affairs every day. If he knew, he would definitely ask for a thorough investigation. This will easily distract the emperor. We will just strengthen the defense of the mansion in the future. He also invited a few masters to the prince consort's mansion as guards.
So, Zhao Xiaofei said goodbye to the two women, went to Yanyu Tower, and traveled back to modern society. This time, Zhao Xiaofei held a sword in his hand, ready to strike at any time. Unfortunately, he didn't use it this time. He left the house, drove, and called his eldest brother first. His eldest brother said that the hospital was busy today and would be free tomorrow.
Zhao Xiaofei then drove home. When his mother Liu Aiping saw her son coming back, she quickly asked, "Son! What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you!"
"Whatever! I'm tired, I'll take a nap first." Zhao Xiaofei said perfunctorily.
"This casualness is the hardest thing to do, so I'll just do it casually!" said Liu Aiping.
"Well! As long as it's not bitter melon, anything is fine!" The only thing Zhao Xiaofei doesn't like to eat is bitter melon.
The next morning, Zhao Xiaokun came home from get off work. As soon as he entered the house, he woke up his brother and asked, "What's wrong with you? You called me so suddenly. Tell me what's going on!"
Zhao Xiaofei went outside to check and found that his mother was not at home, so he said, "Brother! Someone wants to kill me!"
Zhao Xiaokun stared at his brother blankly and asked calmly, "Are you kidding?"
"No!" Zhao Xiaofei said anxiously.
"Then how did you escape?" Zhao Xiaokun asked.
"I killed that man!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
Zhao Xiaokun immediately raised his voice and asked, "Where's the body? Do you have evidence to prove you acted in self-defense? Do you have a video?"
"No, I buried the body! But brother..." Before Zhao Xiaofei finished speaking, Zhao Xiaokun interrupted him, "Buried? Where? You didn't even have any evidence to prove it, so you just buried the person?" Zhao Xiaokun was a little emotional at this time.
"Brother! Can you listen to me?" Zhao Xiaofei said.
Zhao Xiaokun shouted, "Brother, you're in trouble! No! Take me to where the body is buried, and we'll find a way to destroy it."
Zhao Xiaofei looked at his elder brother. This was truly his own elder brother! He didn't say that he wanted to sacrifice his brother for the greater good and ask him to surrender himself. Instead, he was thinking about how to exonerate his younger brother and destroy the body. At this moment, Zhao Xiaofei shed tears and called out, "Brother!"
Seeing his tearful brother, Zhao Xiaokun panicked even more and asked, "Did anyone see you? Or are the police chasing you?"
Zhao Xiaofei shook his head and said, "No!" Then he wiped his tears and said, "Brother, I want to tell you a secret!"
"The secret is not important now. The key is to deal with the body. Let's go! Take me to deal with the body!" Zhao Xiaokun said firmly.
