Although Nini didn't know what happened, she also knew that it must be related to her playmate. She kept asking Zhou Xiaoyuan about the movements of her playmates, but Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't know either.

Everyone was anxiously waiting for the news, and at this moment, a piece of news that surprised everyone came - the child was back.

Zhou Xiaoyuan looked at the child in surprise. She saw that his face was red and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. He was obviously suffering from a high fever. Just as she was about to step forward to ask about the situation, the child suddenly staggered and fainted to the ground.

"Come quickly, help!" Zhou Xiaoyuan shouted anxiously.

Xia Yechen immediately ordered people to carry the child into the mansion with all possible means, and found a doctor from the mansion to treat him. Zhou Xiaoyuan also followed the doctor, taking care of the child every step of the way.

At this time, King Jing was furious when he learned that the child had escaped. He was worried that the child would say something detrimental to him, and if the emperor found out, he would definitely blame him.

At the same time, he was also afraid that Xia Yechen would take away his credit.

"This waste! He can't even look down on a child!" Prince Jing said angrily.

At this time, in order to express himself in front of King Jing, Xia Yehong specially asked for help and wanted to help King Jing solve this matter.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to serve you." Xia Yehong said flatteringly, "Leave this matter to me, don't worry."

Prince Jing also had this intention. He did not want to make any mistakes at this juncture. If the child said something unfavorable to him, the emperor would definitely blame him once he learned about it.

At the same time, he was also afraid that Xia Yechen would take away his credit. So, he agreed to Xia Yehong's request,

Give him full authority over the matter.

Xia Yehong sent his guards to look for traces of the child. However, the guards searched for a long time but found nothing.

At this time, Xia Yehong thought of the mute that King Jing had mentioned before, and he thought that the mute must know where the child was hiding.

So, he ordered someone to secretly poison the mute, intending to turn the mute into mute, and then force him to find out where the child was hiding.

Zhou Xiaoyuan has been taking good care of the child, and is very relieved to see his condition gradually improving.

However, one day, she discovered something was wrong with the medicinal soup the child drank. She smelled it carefully and found that it contained anesthetic ingredients.

She immediately understood that someone was trying to poison the child!

Zhou Xiaoyuan was so angry that she immediately smashed the medicine bowl to the ground and came to Xia Yehong aggressively.

After Xia Yechen heard about this, he immediately came to ask Zhou Xiaoyuan to find out what happened.

"Why did that child run away?" Xia Yechen asked, "Also, how did you find out that there was something wrong with that bowl of medicine?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan told Xia Yechen exactly what happened.

"The child ran away because he was afraid that Prince Jing would kill him and silence him." Zhou Xiaoyuan said, "As for the medicine, I smelled it and found that it contained anesthetic ingredients."

Xia Yechen nodded, thinking secretly in his heart. He knew that this matter must have something to do with Prince Jing. So, he immediately ordered the person who cooked the medicine to be brought to account.

The person who cooked the medicine was a middle-aged man. When he saw Xia Yechen sitting in the hall with a serious face, he was already frightened.

Shivering. He told what happened in detail.

"Xia Yehong gave me money to add anesthetic to the medicine." The middle-aged man said, "He said that the child was mute and posed no threat. He only needed to secretly add the medicine and poison him to become mute."

When Xia Yechen heard this, he was even more certain that this matter was related to Prince Jing. He was about to continue questioning when he suddenly noticed that the middle-aged man's face was blue and his lips were purple. He seemed to have been poisoned and died.

"Someone! Come quickly!" Xia Yechen shouted, "Take this middle-aged man back and bury him properly!"

Everyone stepped forward to check the situation, but no clues were found. Xia Yechen thought to himself, knowing that this matter was no longer a trivial matter.

So, he decided to pursue the matter to the end.

Here, the child finally came to and began to speak. Zhou Xiaoyuan and Xia Yechen immediately came to check the situation.

"You are good people." The child said gratefully, "Thank you for saving my life."

Xia Yechen and Zhou Xiaoyuan both said that this was their responsibility. They also know that this child has a special status and may be involved in many things.

But they believe that whenever someone needs help, they will lend a helping hand.

"Prince Jing did all this."

Although the child's voice was weak, it was full of determination, "He was afraid that Xia Yechen would take away his credit, so he had the bandit poisoned in advance so that we could not give any clues."

"He was the one who kidnapped me." When Zhou Xiaoyuan heard this, a flash of anger flashed in her eyes. She immediately turned around and took her child to find the emperor to explain all this.

Prince Jing is making his own way

In Ji's house, after hearing the news, he couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

He knew that if the child told everything, his credit would be taken away from him, and he might also be punished for it.

"This child cannot be kept." Prince Jing thought to himself, "We must find a way to silence him."

However, as soon as this idea came up, Prince Jing immediately gave up the idea.

Because he knew that this child belonged to Xia Yechen, and if he did it himself, he would definitely get into trouble. So, he decided to let his people handle the matter.

Zhou Xiaoyuan brought the child to the emperor and told him everything. The emperor was furious after hearing this and immediately called Prince Jing to confront the matter.

Prince Jing sat in the hall with a gloomy face. He did not expect that he would fall into the hands of a child, and the child also accused him of committing serious crimes such as murder and kidnapping.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"Your Majesty, this child belongs to Xia Yechen." Prince Jing quickly denied it. "Everything he said was to frame me. I have never done anything illegal."

The emperor frowned, his eyes showing suspicion and dissatisfaction when he looked at Prince Jing. He clearly knew Prince Jing's character and ambition, but he never thought that he would do such a thing.

"You said you didn't do it, but the clues this kid described point to you." The emperor said with some dissatisfaction, "Do you have any evidence to prove that you didn't do it?"

Prince Jing secretly clenched his fists in his heart. He knew that what the child said was true, but he couldn't admit it. In this crisis

At a critical moment, he suddenly thought of someone who could save him.

"Your Majesty, this child's accusations are all wrong." Prince Jing said, "I can find the real criminal, but I need Xia Yehong's help."
