"System, system?" Cui Yingying was so happy that she forgot everything else. She called for a long time before she realized that there was no response, and she called out anxiously several times.

The system, which was already devastated, didn't want to respond, but when she thought of Xiao Su, she immediately responded to her with "Happy... It's good."

"System, what's wrong with you?" Cui Yingying listened to its weak voice and asked worriedly, "Are you out of power?"

[……] The system suppressed its inner complaints and replied with gritted teeth.

It's all your man's fault.

"Okay then, you should have a good rest." The carefree Cui Yingying completely forgot to ask herself why she was injured for no reason. After perfunctorily answering the system, she smiled like a fool and pulled up the quilt to cover herself.

But he didn't know that the scene outside the bedroom was quite different.

The queen paced back and forth anxiously outside. The palace maids around her tried to persuade her several times but she refused to go back and insisted on waiting for Xiao Su to come out.

Among those who were worried was the elder brother Liang Heng. He had almost hammered a hole in the pillar in front of him. His brows were furrowed, and he was extremely anxious. He wanted to rush in to find out what was going on.

Things are getting weirder and weirder.

Just as I was waiting anxiously, a figure finally walked out of the bedroom.

The blood on Xiao Su's hands had not yet dried and was still dripping. He hid it well and was not discovered by Cui Yingying. However, when he walked into the wind and snow, he could no longer hide.

The queen hurriedly walked towards the man from the pavilion. She almost cried when she saw his bleeding wound. She choked and said, "How did you get injured suddenly?"

"It's my fault." Tang Yang hurried forward to explain.

"It's okay, it's just a minor injury," Xiao Su hid his hands behind his back as if nothing had happened, "Thank you, mother, for taking good care of her."

"Ajing, are you hiding something from mother? Just tell me what you want to do and mother will help you. How can you handle it all by yourself?" The queen held back her tears, grabbed his shoulders and coaxed him.

Xiao Su lowered his eyes and said nothing. He couldn't say anything.

If she says it, she will disappear, disappear from this world.

"Mother, just take good care of her. I will take care of the rest." Xiao Su said with a smile.

The queen felt mixed emotions, but she knew she couldn't get anything out of him, so she gave up.

Liang Heng chased after her, staring at the distraught man in front of him with complicated eyes. He couldn't say the words of blame, so he compromised helplessly, "What exactly does Your Highness want to do? Yingying is injured? Didn't you see it?"

"She's in danger in the palace."

If Han Liang and Cui Changqing knew about this.

He believed that these two people would take Yingying with them at all costs.

She was once a lively and cheerful little girl, but she became like this in such a short period of time. She was injured as soon as she entered the palace today.

Xiao Su looked at him silently, and when he spoke, Liang Heng was stunned on the spot.

"Her injury was caused by loneliness!"

"You...can you tell me?" Liang Heng's eyes widened in disbelief. He rushed over uncontrollably, grabbed his collar and angrily said, "Say it again?"

"Her wound was caused by a solitary thorn." Xiao Su repeated this sentence word by word. This sentence was like a blade, cutting into his heart with every word he said.

"Xiao Xingjing!" Liang Heng could no longer remain calm and swung his fist to hit him.

Tang Yang reacted quickly and pushed him away, shouting angrily, "Mr. Liang, you dare to attack the crown prince? This is the imperial palace."

"Do you think His Highness is not sad that the princess was injured? This matter has nothing to do with His Highness. His Highness just..."

He also didn't understand why His Highness said that he was the cause of the princess' injury, and he didn't have time to say the rest.

The ancestor at the back spoke up, his tone so casual as if his life wasn't important.

"If you don't dare to fight, I'll go find Han Liang." Xiao Su said lightly and left without looking back.

He desperately needed someone to beat him up, or at least chop off his right hand.
