Xiao Yiran and Xu Chang stood on the stage.

The bloodstains on the drill grounds below had already turned black and stank. Even though Gu Mingyan had carefully treated them with the antidote, the nearby grass had already dried up, and no one dared to lightly approach the blood-stained ground. Xia Ziji originally wanted to escape, but Xiao Yiran ordered his men to detain Poyun, and the remaining thieves were taken away by Shuang Hua to be interrogated.

Xu Chang stood with his hands behind his back and stared at Xia Ziji, "I do not ask about the matters of the imperial government, but your actions are too reckless, how could your father's assistant minister of the military really provoke Prime Minister Yu? Your father was anxious and impatient, and you were listening to teacher's teachings in the academy, and yet you did not know what was important and what wasn't?"

Senior Xia's calculations were not bad, and in fact, the quasi Seventh Prince did not use Gu Mingyan as a weapon, but instead from the bottom of his heart.

If Gu Mingyan died today, then according to his character, most likely they would have to dig out his entire clan of nine and skin out their tendons. It was a pity that most people in the Shengan did not remember Xiao Qiran's ruthless killing look.

Xia Ziji knelt in front of Xu Chang, and lowered his head: "Father not only did this on official business, but Sir and Your Highness are aware of the Emperor's secret decree, that the Nine Immortal School is not only deceiving the citizens, but many good people are also involved in this matter, this matter … "I presume that it's because the Emperor had his own thoughts that father dared to call me this."

Xu Chang was shocked in his heart, but it was Xiao Yiran who laughed softly instead: "If that's the case, then treat it as if Young Master Xia was ambushed by evil people today. Breaking Cloud only left now, and because you were saved by Eldest Miss today, you should be the one thanking us in the future."

Xia Ziji thanked him profusely as he clasped his hands and said, "I will inform father about today's matter. For the past two days, I have been disrespectful to the young miss and her National Duke's Mansion.

If Gu Mingyan had not come, he would not have noticed the minute differences between the fights.

Otherwise, if he waited until the battle was over, his arms would probably be crippled as well.

Waiting until Xia Ziji left, Xu Chang ordered the masters of the academy to temporarily lock down the drill grounds. All the young masters and young misses were not allowed to stop their lessons to arouse suspicion, they were only required to keep quiet and stay in their rooms to study the ancient books within the next three days.

There was no one around, so Xu Chang looked at the prince beside him. "Your Highness Fourth Prince, what happened today …"

"It's all my fault for not guessing royal father's thoughts. It led to such a huge mistake today." Xiao Yiran apologised guiltily, and with a gloomy face he cupped his hands towards Xu Chang: "Previously at the Winter Palace banquet, young miss had once blocked an assassin for me, she was already outstanding. A few days ago my royal father had received my young miss's medicine and his throat is getting better and better, I think royal father suspects that although Eldest Miss is from the countryside, you know a lot about it …"

The two of them understood what he was about to say.

A tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

Not to mention that even the Shengan knew that the direct daughter of the Prime Minister was not born yet, so she had moved to another place, which was in fact in the countryside.

But now, not only had he defeated Xia Ziji, he even knew that medicine was poison, making people very smart and happy. How was he like a little girl from the countryside who had never seen the world before? Furthermore, the Prime Minister's ambition was very clear. It seemed that the Emperor, for his beloved son, did not wish for Gu Mingyan to be married to a prince in order to avoid future troubles.

"I am aware of this matter, but it is not convenient for me to participate in other matters in the future. I only hope that His Highness can take care of this matter properly, so that no more mishaps will happen."

After Xu Chang finished, he turned and left.

Leaving Xiao Yiran alone on the drill grounds, he frowned. If royal father had already investigated the matter regarding the Nine Immortal School, why did he keep quiet?

At the same time, the sky abruptly brightened a bit. It was actually already noon.

Inside the infirmary, it was extremely hot and Xiao Qiran was lying on the bamboo bed with her upper body naked. The old wounds on her back were completely exposed and the line of her spine was also seen by Gu Mingyan, causing her to be stunned for a moment.

It felt good, and her figure was even better.

But being stunned for a moment was enough to dispel those infatuated thoughts. When Gu Mingyan dropped down from the dozen needles, he saw that Xiao Qiran was already sweating like the rain, with his back tightly-knit and perspiring profusely. Gu Mingyan was lost in thought as he looked, but his voice was serious: "Your Highness, relax, why are you being so tense?"

It's not you who's in pain!

Xiao Qiran was in so much pain that the veins on his forehead and lower abdomen of his dantian were burning, and he was in so much pain that his leg seemed to be trembling, but the hand of the woman behind him landed in a place that she shouldn't be, and she pretended to shout in astonishment: "Your Highness should really be pouring out fire."

"Move your hand away."

This time, Gu Mingyan actually let go obediently, but it was strange that both of Xiao Qiran's legs were activated using inner force, and with just a few needles, he was able to move his legs.

Xiao Qiran secretly heaved a sigh of relief as he felt his pants being pulled down as well.

"What for?" He gritted his teeth and turned around viciously.

"Your Highness, did your legs feel it when you were born?" Gu Mingyan pinched his leg, and found two meridians to press down on him.

Xiao Qiran used his last bit of rationality and said, "I don't feel anything, I only felt it after I practiced martial arts."

Thinking about it this way, he indeed had a feeling when he took out the Gu worm in his leg for him last time.

But this time, Gu Mingyan pulled out all the needles on his back and flipped over. Xiao Qiran was angry and angry to the point that he wanted to cover a few spots, but Gu Mingyan just happened to run into him.

"A leg that's been trained all year round. I guess it's going to be better this time. Maybe it'll be a bad strike this time."

Just as Xiao Qiran was curious about what was going on, the silver blade in his hand flashed, and two paper bundles that he had taken out unknowingly had their mouths opened up, the ice powder flew into her palm and pressed down onto his leg, "I don't have much strength, I'm afraid you'll have to endure for a while longer."

The three little radishes outside the door only heard a muffled grunt from inside before they turned silent and started discussing amongst themselves.

Only when Bai Song hurried over did they hear him say, "His Highness Seventh Prince seems to be injured. He gave a pained snort, and we cried for so long, yet there was no sound?"

Before Bai Shao could explain the whole situation, Bai Song had already pushed open the door and entered.

Behind him, Yu Xiaochen grabbed her two companions and whispered, "How can I disturb Your Highness' plans!"

Just now, he wasn't groaning at all! That was the taste of a woman's room! Thinking of his father and mother, Yu Xiaochen understood.

Bai Shao and Ji Huai awkwardly stood at their original spots as they looked at each other, before calling out to Yu Xiaochen, "Then why did you let him in just now!?"

Yu Xiaochen was stunned. In the room, Bai Song could only see a blurry figure, Gu Mingyan was half-kneeling on the side of the bamboo bed, half of his body was resting on her highness' leg, while her highness was not wearing a single strand of clothes …

Bai Song retreated out of the room with a completely red face, and closed the door with a bang.

Under broad daylight! How could he not know his place!

Xiao Qiran, who was in the room, pinched the center of his brows in pain.
