Just when Gu Xue was wondering why the fifth prince came to Yingzhou and Xuecheng, perhaps because the soldiers stopped him and did not let him enter the city, the fifth prince had already turned around and left.

But Gu Xue knew that he would definitely not come to Yingzhou for nothing, and he would definitely not come here for fun.

What's more, he is in the direction of the west city gate.

Beyond the west gate is an open space dozens of meters wide, and to the west is the moat.

On the other side of the river is the territory of Xiling Kingdom.

He could only come in by crossing the river from Xiling territory and coming to the west gate.

Why didn't he take the east gate, south gate and north gate?

Instead, take the west city gate and go around from the Xiling side.

What is his purpose?

Does Xiao Jingyi know that his fifth brother has appeared in his territory?

Or is there something going on between the fifth prince and Xiling.

Probably not. He was disguised so that no one would recognize him.

Moreover, there is a river outside the west city gate, so no one will enter through that gate.

So the city gate and the guards are just like the national border, guarding Xiling.

If he knew that no one would enter through the West City Gate, why would he go around here from Xiling.

If he colludes with Xiling, Xiling will definitely tell him that no one is entering here. If he enters from here, it will arouse suspicion.

Instead, he will be asked to find a way to enter through another door.

In this case, the fifth prince could only have come secretly.

He put on a disguise, not wanting Jamel Xiao’s eyes and ears to recognize him.

Perhaps in order to confuse people, they came from the direction of Xiling, so they arrived at the West Gate.

Even if someone noticed him, they would think it was someone from Xiling trying to sneak into the city.

It's just that he wasn't familiar with this place and didn't make any public announcements, so he didn't inquire about the situation here in detail.

He didn't leave until he was stopped at the city gate.

He was already in disguise, so Gu Xue would not pay special attention to him.

Just because he was questioned by the city gate guards.

He appeared there so suddenly, Gu Xue subconsciously felt that something was wrong, and then used her mental power to scan around.

She met the fifth prince on the way to escape.

No matter how well he concealed himself, Gu Xue recognized him.

Since ancient times, royal brothers, not to mention not being born from the same mother, have mostly been enemies.

No matter how respectful they are on the surface.

They are all enemies at heart.

Xiao Jingyi should have noticed that the fifth prince came to his territory.

Gu Xue was still worried and told Hai Dongqing a few words to send a message to Xiao Jingyi.

She even went to the west city gate guard to give instructions.

"This door, no matter who is outside and wants to come in, no matter what excuse you have, don't let them in."

"Yes, City Lord."

The guard replied respectfully.

Over in Yingzhou, Xiao Jingyi was sitting in the study.

When Hai Dongqing flew over, he landed in his study.

Tell Xiao Jingyi what Gu Xue told him.

Xiao Jingyi looked at the secret letter in his hand and smiled.

It turns out that Xueer also knew that his fifth brother had come quietly.

Xue'er is so smart and very cautious. He was so evasive, but he was still discovered.

After Hai Dongqing finished his work, he waved his wings and flew away.

The guard next to Xiao Jingyi clasped his fists and said, "How about inviting the fifth prince here to prevent him from running around in Yingzhou?"

Xiao Jingyi raised his eyebrows: "Wait a minute. Since he came quietly, let's pretend he doesn't know. If something happens to him here, he won't be able to blame me."

There was a smile on his lips, but there seemed to be ice hidden in it.

Chilling.

Unexpectedly, two hours later, Gu Xue's Haidongqing flew back again.

"My master gave you something." Hai Dongqing stretched his legs.

Xiao Jingyi saw a small cloth bag tied to its feet.

He untied it and opened it.

I saw a porcelain bottle and a piece of paper inside.

There is a line written on the paper.

"Specially effective medicinal liquid, it will itch when touched. Even if you are weak and bedridden, you can drink it and take it."

Suddenly, he grinned and was thinking about how to deal with the fifth prince.

Gu Xue had already thought of it before him.

And he was given medicine.

No matter if someone accidentally dripped the medicine into the wind on the fifth prince.

Or give him medicine and drink it accidentally.

It will make him feel uncomfortable and itchy all over. He will also become weak later and can only rest in bed.

If the doctors here can't cure him, the fifth prince will definitely return to Beijing to find an imperial doctor.

He had to leave Yingzhou.

As for why he felt that Yingzhou's doctor couldn't cure him, of course it was Gu Xue who gave him the medicine, which would definitely not allow the doctor to cure him easily.

Xiao Jingyi found the secret guard, gave him the porcelain bottle, and explained the matter.

The special medicine given by Gu Xue can completely collapse the fifth prince's body.

It will itch for three months at first, but then it will stop itching.

From the moment he is exposed to the medicine, his body will become weaker and weaker.

It's hard to walk even a few steps, and he's always bedridden.

Of course he wouldn't be like that right away.

If something happens to someone in Xiao Jingyi's fiefdom.

Even if it wasn't Xiao Jingyi who did it, those in the royal family would think it was him.

They would all blame it on him.

The best way is to let the fifth prince return to the capital because the doctors in Yingzhou cannot cure the disease.

His health is getting worse and worse, and he only became like this for a while after returning to Beijing.

In the early stage, he would also think that it was due to allergies or other reasons that caused his body to itch.

There are a lot of mosquitoes in the south, so it is normal to feel itchy.

What's more, the fifth prince grew up in the capital. Although he has traveled to various places before, he has never stayed in the south for a long time. He must not be accustomed to the climate here.

Gu Xue's guess was correct.

At this time, the fifth prince was in his room in the inn.

He's not used to this place and is always slimy.

Although he had also been to the southern state capitals, none of them were as uncomfortable as Yingzhou.

"Go and ask the waiter to bring hot water. I want to take a bath."

He was very tired and frowned in displeasure.

Soon the waiter brought the hot water in, poured the water into the tub, and closed the door thoughtfully.

The boy who was waiting in front of the fifth prince saw that he was a little agitated and couldn't help but offer some words of advice.

"Your Highness, I will take care of you to take a bath. Just wash yourself and you will feel comfortable."

"The weather in Yingzhou is really unpleasant. It's hard to be my master."

The fifth prince stood up and allowed the boy to undress him.

"I thought I could get some information, but I didn't expect that I didn't even enter the city gate. I ran all the way in vain and broke out in sweat again."

The young man echoed: "Your Highness, why don't you go directly to His Highness Ninth Prince? He will definitely take you around Yingzhou."

"You asked that you want to visit that land of Sanji, can he still refuse to agree? You go alone. Those people don't know your identity, so they are neglecting you."

The fifth prince snorted coldly.

"I sneaked in just to avoid being seen and get information, so that I can know the truth."

"If I tell him directly that I am coming, he will naturally not let me go anywhere."

"Okay, you go down first."

The boy stepped back and closed the door.

The fifth prince got into the tub and began to think deeply.

In the room, the fifth prince Xiao Jamming was left taking a bath alone.

However, what Xiao Jamming didn't know was that there was an eye above the roof looking at him...
