After Li Siwan left the Queen's palace, he headed towards the Emperor's bedroom.

As soon as I turned the corner, I saw a familiar figure in the distance.

Who else could it be but Su Xiaoyao, the person walking aimlessly on the road with his head down?

After noticing his distracted look, Li Siwan quickened his pace and chased after him.

Su Xiaoyao was still in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking about.

I just felt someone tapped my shoulder.

He suddenly raised his eyes, then turned his head to look, and met Li Siwan's concerned gaze.

"It is you."

After Su Xiaoyao saw who was coming, he forced a faint smile.

"How's it going? Are you okay?"

"I can't die!"

Su Xiaoyao chuckled, "Didn't you leave the palace? Why are you here again?"

Then he understood again, "Did you enter the palace for Xiao... for the Crown Princess?"

"Yes, I just met her."

"Is she okay then?"

"Do you think she'll be okay?"

Su Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, then he gave a bitter smile, "It should be good, after all, she is the Crown Princess, the future Queen!"

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoyao sighed deeply again.

But there was not the slightest confidence in these words, because he actually knew that Han Zhi was not that vain person.

But this was all he could think of at the moment, and he had no choice but to believe that she was safe.

Li Siwan looked at his conflicted expression and sighed as well.

She knew Han Zhi's dilemma.

If it was because of personal feelings, she might be able to persuade him, but for such a noble cause, she simply couldn't say a word.

Han Zhi is even more so.

The identity of a saint, her mission and responsibilities, all prevent Han Zhi from deciding her own life, let alone an unspoken relationship.

Thinking of this, Li Siwan raised his hand and patted Su Xiaoyao's shoulder soothingly.

"Han Zhi has her own difficulties and choices. We have no other choice but to respect them."

"Difficulties..."

Su Xiaoyao gave a bitter smile.

"Actually, I was angry not because she suddenly became the Crown Princess, but because she knew in advance that she would become the Crown Princess but never told me anything. She just let me fall deeper and deeper into it, and each step was in vain."

Su Xiaoyao's sadness made Li Siwan realize that he was truly in love with Han Zhi.

It's really hard to explain the matter of feelings. Even though we haven't spent much time together, we can still be deeply involved and unable to extricate ourselves.

"Su Xiaoyao, it's not that Xiaozhi doesn't want to say it, it's that she can't say it. And everything now is not what she wants, but she can't break free."

Hearing this, Su Xiaoyao's eyes lit up slightly, "She's not happy?"

"Since you've read so many novels, you should know that not everyone wants the position of Crown Princess. You've been with Xiao Zhi for so long, don't you know what she really wants?"

"Yes..."

Su Xiaoyao lowered his eyes, and it took a long time before he raised his head again, with waves surging in his eyes.

“It’s freedom.”

"Yes, she is such a freedom-loving person, but she is trapped in the deep palace. I think she is more miserable than anyone else."

Li Siwan's words made Su Xiaoyao suddenly realize.

"You're right. She should be the saddest one. I should be with her instead of here... Li Siwan, I won't say thank you anymore. I'll treat you to a drink some other day."

After Su Xiaoyao finished speaking, he turned and left.

Looking at his excited back as he walked away, Li Siwan took a deep breath.

Hopefully, there will be a turnaround.

Li Siwan turned and headed towards the emperor's bedroom. As soon as he reached the door, he was distracted by Su Xiaoyao's matter and bumped into Xiahou Su who was coming out.

Xiahou Su clearly saw her, but deliberately did not avoid her or warn her, allowing her to fall into his arms.

Li Siwan staggered back, but was firmly embraced around the waist again.

After standing firm, Li Siwan raised his eyes and met Xiahou Su's smiling gaze.

"What has bewitched you? You don't even look when you walk?"

"Being killed by two little goblins who were not meant to be together!"

Li Siwan replied teasingly, and Xiahou Su smiled and helped her push away the loose hair covering her ears.

Li Siwan then started talking about serious matters, "I'm here to see His Majesty."

"You go ahead. The Crown Prince is inside. The First and Third Princes are coming back soon. I need to send someone to make arrangements. They will come over later to take you home."

Xiahou Su leaned over and whispered in a gentle tone, as if he was coaxing a child.

Li Siwan smiled and nodded, "Yeah."

"wait me back."

Xiahou Su gently touched Li Siwan's head, then hurried away.

He seemed to be very anxious, but when facing her, he was always so calm and carefree.

Li Siwan watched his back gradually disappearing from his sight, then looked back into the hall.

The prince is also inside...

Now, in just a few days, the Second Prince, who was once the least cared about, has transformed into the Crown Prince.

The least favored person became the crown prince.

This matter is really becoming more and more interesting.

Li Siwan collected his thoughts and walked into the hall again.

Song Jingxiao was standing by the bed at this time.

After hearing the footsteps, he thought the person coming in was Xiahou Su.

"Weren't you going to be busy? Why did you come back suddenly?"

"Meet His Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Siwan leaned over and spoke to Song Jingxiao.

This made him turn his head.

When Song Jingxiao saw that the person coming was Li Siwan, he quickly waved his hand to help.

"No need to be so polite. Father was able to escape danger this time, thanks to you!"

"Your Highness is too polite. These are all things I should do, and they are not just my achievements. Today I came to pay my respects to the Queen, and I came to take His Majesty's pulse."

Hearing this, Song Jingxiao stood up and made room.

Li Siwan sat down and took the emperor's pulse.

Your Majesty is weak and powerless, and his time is running out.

But her expression didn't reveal anything. This was not her business.

Fang Yuan had naturally said everything that needed to be said.

"Your Majesty, it's the same as before. I will discuss the follow-up treatment with Doctor Fang later."

"Good work!"

"It is my duty, but Your Highness the Crown Prince is also injured, so he needs to rest well."

"I'm fine now. By the way, Tingxue has been staying in the clinic lately. If you have time, please help me keep an eye on her."

"She is gifted and has made great progress in learning medical skills. Now she can treat some common minor illnesses in the clinic."

"Really? Then I have to thank you for your teaching."

After these simple and polite words, Li Siwan turned his thoughts and continued, "Your Highness, I really can't accept this thank you. There have been too many things to do recently, and I don't have much time to be with her. But Miss Shen went to accompany her, and she was very happy."

Shen Linglan!

When he heard the words "Miss Shen", Song Jingxiao's hand holding the teacup paused obviously, which was also seen by Li Siwan.

I instantly had an idea in my mind.

"Your Highness, since His Majesty has nothing to do here, I will leave the palace first. I have to go to the medical clinic and Qingxian Pavilion tomorrow to see Miss Shen and Xue'er."

"Alright."

Song Jingxiao seemed calm, but his deliberate avoidance of gaze allowed Li Siwan to see through his hiding.

But he didn't say much. After paying his respects, he turned and left the hall.
