After coming out of the Imperial Study, Princess Hui An glanced at Princess
Jingning and said indifferently, “Thank you.”
Princess Jingning ignored her and turned to walk towards Kunning Palace.
Princess Hui An exploded and chased after her. “Hey! I’m talking to you! What are you doing? Don’t think that just because you helped my mother today, you can act like you’re high up in the air to me! I, I, I… I’m not to be trifled with!”
Princess Jingning stopped and looked at her indifferently. “Are you done? If you’re done, I’m going back to Kunning Palace. I don’t know who placed that dirty thing. I have to find him. I have many things to do. If you just want to quarrel with me, I don’t have the time.”
Princess Hui An choked.
Princess Jingning left without looking back.
The young eunuch said, “Princess, if Princess Jingning is gone, you will be the only princess. At that time…”
Princess Hui An scolded angrily, ‘What nonsense are you talking about? Who will I quarrel with without her? If she dies, she can only be angered to death by me! If you dare to spout nonsense again in the future, I’ll get Mother to chase you away!”
The young eunuch did not expect to get into trouble when he was trying to suck up. He was so frightened that he knelt down. “I won’t dare to do it again! Princess, spare me! Princess, spare me! Princess, spare me!”
In the Imperial Study, Emperor Jing Xuan suddenly sat on the chair tiredly.
“Your Majesty!” Eunuch Fu’s expression changed slightly. “Take care!”
Emperor Jing Xuan pinched his aching glabella and said, “Call Third Brother over.”
‘Yes.”
Eunuch Fu personally went to the Dali Temple to call Xiao Zhonghua over.
Xiao Zhonghua entered the Imperial Study and bowed respectfully to Emperor
Jing Xuan. “Father.”
Emperor Jing Xuan looked tired. “How’s the case going?”
Xiao Zhonghua said, “We haven’t caught Guo Huan yet. The imperial guards are cooperating with the Imperial Capital to search for him. ”

Xiao Zhonghua paused and said, “The Sect Master of the White Lotus Society is on his way to the capital, or… he has already entered the capital. I’m inclined to the former. ”
They turned the capital upside down, but there was no sign of Guo Huan. Instead, they found two carriages filled with inferior fabric and the corpses of a few White Lotus Society experts in a forest outside the southern city gate.
Xiao Zhonghua judged that these people were escorting Guo Huan out of the city. He did not know what they encountered halfway, but they were all killed.
Guo Huan also disappeared.
No matter what, Guo Huan would definitely go for the Sect Master. If he left the city, it meant that the Sect Master was also outside the city.
“It’s the White Lotus Society again!” Emperor Jing Xuan was so angry that his blood surged and his vision darkened.
“Father!” Xiao Zhonghua quickly walked to his side and raised his hand to support his swaying body. “Are you alright?”
Emperor Jing Xuan stabilized himself and took away a piece of silk cloth that should be on the table, revealing the little person with long needles.
Xiao Zhonghua was shocked. “Jingning?”
The little person was made in Princess Jingning’s likeness. He could recognize her at a glance without looking at the birth characters on her back.
Emperor Jing Xuan said with widened eyes, “The White Lotus Society attacked Jingning. They’re provoking the royal family!”
As he spoke, his gaze landed on Xiao Zhonghua’s young and handsome face.
“Third Brother, you want to be the emperor, right?”
Xiao Zhonghua took a step back and knelt on both knees. He said piously, “Father, I definitely don’t have such improper thoughts!”
Emperor Jing Xuan smiled mockingly. “Is that so? If you don’t want to be the emperor, why are you fighting with your two brothers?”
Xiao Zhonghua said seriously, “I didn’t. Father, have you misunderstood?”
Emperor Jing Xuan sneered. “Misunderstanding? Then did I misunderstand when you went to Qingzhou to look for the Wei family’s Commander’s Seal?” Xiao Zhonghua’s eyes trembled.
Emperor Jing Xuan glanced at him. “Why? Do you want to ask me when I found out? Not long ago, I just found out a few days ago. Otherwise, I would have punished you for deceiving the emperor when you covered up for Wei Ting! ”
Xiao Zhonghua lowered his eyes and did not argue for himself.
“Do you know why I don’t like you?”
This was the first time Emperor Jing Xuan openly admitted his dislike for Xiao
Zhonghua.
Xiao Zhonghua whispered, “I don’t know.”
Emperor Jing Xuan smiled and said, “Because you’re too similar to me when I was young, I know very well that your feelings for me are not as deep as they seem. You only have the throne in your heart, just like me back then.”
Xiao Zhonghlla remained silent-
Emperor Jing Xuan looked solemnly at Xiao Zhonghua, who was Imeeling on the ground. “Exterminate the White Lotus Society and kill every rebel in the White Lotus Society. With that, the position of Crown Prince… is yours!”
The capital in May had the heat of early summer.
Xiao Zhonghua left the palace expressionlessly.
Su Xiaoxiao happened to be at the entrance of the palace.
She had just gone to Yongshou Palace to sit with the Empress Dowager for a while.
Xiao Zhonghua looked at her deeply and restrained the emotions in his eyes. He walked towards her with a normal expression.
“Miss Su.”
He greeted her.
“Your Highness.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded slightly.
Jing Yi was not around today. Xiao Zhonghua looked around and said to Su Xiaoxiao, “Let’s talk in private.”
The two of them went to the side.
This was not a sneaky place, but there were no coachmen and passersby, so they were not worried about being eavesdropped on.
Xiao Zhonghua said, “My father knows that Wei Ting went to Qingzhou.” Su Xiaoxiao asked, “When did he know?”
Xiao Zhonghua said in a low voice, “I just learned the news. In addition, the Wei family’s Commander’s Seal has been exposed.”
Su Xiaoxiao frowned.
Xiao Zhonghua continued, “Did Wei Ting go to Qingzhou to get the
Commander’s Seal? If not, remember to say that in the future.”
The Commander’s Seal had already been exposed. Regardless of whether Wei Ting had any other secrets, it would be the best cover.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Thank you,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
She Imew that Xiao Zhonghua had already seen through Wei Ting’s motive for going to Qingzhou.
“Third Prince!”
She stopped Xiao Zhonghua. “Be careful of the Second Prince’s residence.”
A trace of suspicion flashed across Xiao Zhonghua’s eyes as he nodded slightly. “I understand.”
“Third Brother!”
The Eldest Prince, who had just left the palace, saw Su Xiaoxiao and Xiao Zhonghua and strode over.
Just now, he, the Eldest Princess Consort, and Qin Yanran had gone to visit Consort Yu.
The Eldest Princess Consort got into Xiao Duye’s carriage.
Qin Yanran was a secondary consort, so she could only wait to get into the carriage behind.
Xiao Duye smiled. “Physician Su is also here. Ah, should I call you Miss Qin?”
Xiao Duye had tried to assassinate Su Cheng. Although he did not succeed, Su Xiaoxiao still could not be bothered with him.
Otherwise, she was afraid that she would not be able to control her chubby fists.
Xiao Zhonghua said, “Father asked me to investigate the White Lotus Society’s case. Miss Su’s grandfather has fought with the White Lotus Society. I’m here to ask Miss Su for some clues.”
This explained why the two of them were talking alone here.
Xiao Duye smiled and said, “There’s no need to explain so much. Don’t I know your character? Didn’t Jing Yi follow you? Recently, the activities of the White Lotus Society have been rampant. Third Brother has to be careful.”
Xiao Zhonghua said unhurriedly, “Thank you for your reminder, Big Brother. I will. ”
Xiao Duye patted his shoulder. “It’s nothing. Big Brother will leave first.”
Suddenly, a small fallen leaf floated down.
Xiao Zhonghua raised his hand to receive it.
Su Xiaoxiao looked up at the hand hanging above her head. “What?”
Xiao Zhonghua smiled. “Leaf.”
In the carriage not far away, Qin Yanran lifted the curtain and watched this scene without blinking. The jealousy in her eyes was about to burn someone to ashes.
That girl had clearly betrayed her engagement to him, so why did he treat her so differently?
Why could Su Daya live so well while she could only be reduced to a lowly secondary consort?
Why?
