"Buzz ~ ~ ~"

It was as if thunder exploded in Wei Qing's brain. She pursed her lips, "You didn't hear anything just now did you?"

Xiao Qingqian looked at her deeply, "What did you hear?"

Wei Qing studied and stared at him, guessing why he denied it.

The two of them looked at each other for a moment, then Xiao Qingqian curled his lips and said, "I've been busy for a long time, let's eat first."

Wei Qing's eyes flashed, and barely managed to smile, "Alright."

After trying on the two soldiers' bodies for a few times, Wei Qing was pleasantly surprised to discover that the poison in the soldiers' bodies had almost disappeared. She had people boil some medicine that could be used to cure the poison, and after ordering people to feed the two soldiers, they could eat as per normal that night.

Seeing the unconcealable joy on Wei Qing's face, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

"Success?" Wei Jingnan asked.

Wei Qing nodded heavily.

Wei Jingnan was really too excited, and subconsciously picked Wei Qing up, going around and around in circles.

Xiao Qingqian's face was so dark that it seemed as though he could drip ink to share the joy. It should have been his husband who held her, but when was it Wei General's turn?

Suddenly feeling a burst of cold energy approaching him, the smile on Wei Qing's face disappeared completely.

Wei Jingnan naturally noticed the abnormality as well, and out of the corner of his eyes, he saw that if Xiao Qingqian had materialized, he would definitely be able to shoot Wei Qing into a sieve. He hurriedly put him down.

Although Wei Qing was her own sister, after all, she was already married to a noble Prince Chu.

Wei Qing coughed lightly and said to Chen Yang: "Smelly old man, can we call the military doctor here to take care of the training?"

Chen Yang stroked his beard, "It's your decision."

This girl must have great attainments in medical skills, and the most valuable part was her decisiveness!

While the border area was filled with joy, the rumors of ghosts in the palace only became more and more intense.

After dark, the palace people were all terrified, afraid that those evil spirits would suddenly jump out.

These days, Xiao Hanqi had already ordered people to expel the ghosts to search the entire palace, but he couldn't even find a single hair on Tian Sisi's body.

"Your Highness, there's still one more place that we haven't found yet." The advisor whispered.

Xiao Hanqi knit his brows, and narrowed his eyes, "You mean the forbidden grounds?"

"Right."

"But, this forbidden grounds is extremely tightly guarded, and cannot be entered easily. How could Xiao Qingqian hide someone here?"

The advisor looked around and whispered, "Your Highness, Prince Chu has always been loved by the empress dowager. You really can't compare this kind of thing."

As he said that, the temperature around Xiao Hanqi's body dropped to the freezing point.

The advisor held his breath. "Your Highness, don't you think your subordinate was wrong. With the assistance of the empress dowager, wouldn't it be easy to enter the forbidden area?"

Xiao Hanqi seemed to have thought of something, "What you said makes some sense."

royal father has always been very filial, if the Royal Grandmother opened her mouth, it was likely that royal father wouldn't stop him.

If he had really been hiding in the Imperial Palace, it would have been impossible for him to have searched for so many days, and he still could not find any clues.

When the advisor saw Liu Ming was deep in thought and lowering his head, the corner of his mouth slightly raised in a crafty manner.

Since he already had a direction, Xiao Hanqi would naturally send people to the forbidden grounds to investigate.

However, just as he said, how could anyone get close to the forbidden area?

The people around the crown prince were pushed back by a fierce inner strength before they could even approach the forbidden area.

This inner energy was very dense. If he hadn't cultivated for a few decades, he wouldn't have been able to reach this level.

The crowd endured the surging qi and blood in their chests as they hurried back to the Crown Prince's Palace to report the news.

Seeing that everyone had returned empty-handed and each of them was seriously injured, Xiao Hanqi bellowed: "A bunch of useless trash."

As soon as he finished speaking, the chorus of "His Majesty the Emperor's arrival" came from outside.

Xiao Hanqi's face suddenly changed, and he anxiously waved his hand at the Dark Guard.

The door opened, and Xiao Hanqi walked out respectfully, "This son greets royal father.

The Old Emperor's eyes were dark and cold, his expression extremely solemn.

"Crown Prince, haven't you been acting a little too hard recently?"

Xiao Hanqi clenched his fist tightly under his sleeve, "Royal father, this son doesn't quite understand why you said that."

"I've been holding it in. I was worried that I would ruin your reputation as the crown prince, but if you continue like this, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Every word Old Emperor spoke made Xiao Hanqi's heart turn colder and colder.

He focused on the Old Emperor, his eyes filled with hatred.

Old Emperor squinted his eyes, his expression turning even more gloomy.

"Father, this son is wholeheartedly working for the Northern Kingdom. Why do you always find this son an eyesore? is inferior to Prince Chu in every aspect? "

These words were extremely disrespectful, and the hostility in Old Emperor's eyes became even stronger.

"Crown Prince!"

"Father, this son has already been grounded by you twice. How can I still have any dignity as a crown prince?"

These words made Old Emperor angry to the point that his face turned ashen.

"Royal father, this son isn't any worse than Prince Chu. If we really want to compare, it's only because of the woman who gave birth to him!"

"Pa ~ ~"

Just as he finished speaking, he was slapped in the face by the Old Emperor.

This slap, Old Emperor used a lot of strength. Xiao Hanqi's body became unsteady and he staggered a few steps back.

"Father, what did this son say wrong?" Xiao Hanqi had long wanted to interrogate the Old Emperor properly in front of him.

Since there would be a falling out sooner or later, he might as well go all out tonight!

The Old Emperor pointed at him, "You have truly disappointed us!"

"Father, where did this son say wrong? "Don't you think so?"

Old Emperor only felt the vitality and blood in his chest churning intensely. When the eunuch beside him saw his flushed face, the veins on his forehead became taut due to anger. It was an extremely shocking sight.

But, Xiao Hanqi had already moved, he was not afraid at all!

Old Emperor felt a sweet and fishy taste in his throat, and with a "Wah" sound, he spat out blood.

Everyone was so scared that their faces turned pale and they kneeled on the ground.

The eunuch patted the Old Emperor's chest to calm him down and hurriedly returned to the palace.

As soon as they returned to the palace, the royal doctors all came to the palace under orders to check the pulse of the Old Emperor.

The magistrate's face didn't look too good as he looked worriedly at the empress dowager.

The empress dowager said, "If you tell me the truth, I can hold on!"

Although she said that, she held onto Nanny Qiu tightly, her palm was also filled with perspiration.

"Esteemed Empress Dowager, the Emperor's pulse is so weak, we can't add oil to the fire anymore!"

Although she didn't say it, the empress dowager had been in the harem for many years, so she was able to hear the meaning behind her words. Old Emperor's situation was extremely dangerous, if she continued to be angry, the world would probably be thrown into chaos!
