Chu Xiyuan was surprised to find that many guards in black robes appeared outside.

They all covered their faces with black scarves and wore black soft armor. Their kung fu was so powerful that it seemed that each of them could take on a hundred people.

Uncle Jing led this group of people and fought back and forth with the troops led by his father, but neither side gained the upper hand.

At this time, Cheng Li had already escaped from Prince Jing's Mansion.

"That little girl is quite capable!"

Cheng Li used silver needles to relieve the numbness and weakness in his limbs.

While the masters of Prince Jing's Mansion were away, he disguised himself as a servant and left through the corner gate.

After leaving Prince Jing's Mansion, he met the guards who had stayed behind by the prince and were staring at Prince Jing's Mansion.

These people are looking for Cheng Li.

Now seeing Cheng Li escape, they hurriedly escorted Cheng Li back to the East Palace.

Cheng Li secretly made up his mind, "When I return to the East Palace and see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I will definitely ask him to kidnap that little girl!"

"It would be best if we could win them over!"

"If we can't win her over, we must kill her!"

"She is young, but her medical skills are incredible! If we keep her, it will definitely ruin the prince's plans!"

Cheng Li was escorted to the East Palace by guards. When he was about to look for the Crown Prince, he was stopped by the Crown Princess.

"Are you Mr. Cheng?" asked the Crown Princess.

Cheng Li bowed and said, "Meet the Crown Princess."

The Crown Princess waved her hand and asked the people around her to move away.

Cheng Li still felt a little uncomfortable all over. Nanxing had sealed the acupoints on his body with silver needles, but the restraints had not yet been completely lifted.

All he wanted now was to go back, take a shower, change his clothes, and then give himself some proper treatment.

"What instructions does the Crown Princess have?" Cheng Li frowned.

"I found out that the snacks given to Jingyou that day passed through Mr. Cheng's hands?" The Crown Princess looked slightly cold.

Mr. Cheng was slightly stunned. Why would the Crown Princess check this?

Cheng Li lowered her eyes slightly… No matter why she was checking this, after all, husband and wife are one, she still has to stand on the side of the prince.

Cheng Li was not afraid of her knowing, "The Crown Princess is investigating this matter. Does the Crown Prince know about it?"

The Crown Princess was slightly startled, "What do you mean?"

"The prince certainly doesn't want you, the princess, to be involved, right?"

The Crown Princess sneered, "The Crown Prince has his own ideas, and I have mine. I just hope my son will be fine."

"You have plotted against Jingyou and have hurt Xiyuan."

"When the prince has radical ideas, the people around him should advise him, not encourage him or even offer him a knife!"

There was a coldness in the Crown Princess's eyes as she stared at Cheng Li as if he were a dead person.

Cheng Li's heart tightened and he suddenly felt a little panicked.

No way?

The Crown Princess wouldn't want to kill him, right?

"Crown Princess...you can ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I am, I am loyal and I am planning for His Royal Highness!" Cheng Li explained hurriedly, glancing around.

He said why the East Palace was so quiet right now?

Could it be that the Crown Princess sent everyone away?

"Don't look at it, the prince is not here now." The princess said coldly, "Of course the prince thinks you are loyal, because you will instigate the prince and magnify his greed."

"You are a traitor! How can I keep you by the side of the prince and my son?"

"You'll hurt them!"

After the Crown Princess finished speaking, the palace maid beside her suddenly stepped forward.

Before Cheng Li could dodge, he felt a sudden pain in his chest.

He looked down and saw that the palace maid was holding a sharp dagger in her hand.

At this moment, the dagger was completely embedded in his chest, with only the hilt exposed.

Cheng Li raised his head in disbelief and looked at the Crown Princess in surprise.

This woman...why would she stab me when she has a disagreement with me?

He only felt that all the energy in his body was leaking out along the dagger stuck in his chest.

"You...you can't kill me!"

"If you kill me, the prince will die!"

"If you kill me, it's the same as... killing the prince! You vicious woman!"

As Cheng Li spoke, blood gushed out of his mouth.

The Crown Princess looked at him coldly, without any pity or fear in her eyes, "You are misleading people with your lies!"

"Just for your outrageous words! I should cut you into pieces!"

The Crown Princess winked at the palace maid.

The palace maid suddenly pulled out the dagger and stabbed it in again.

Cheng Li's eyes went dark, and he clearly felt the fresh vitality flowing out of his chest.

Not only him, but also the life forces of two others bound to him were fading away...

A strange scene took place inside and outside the Zichen Palace.

The two sides are fighting.

The prince was clearly standing at the back, protected by his guards.

No arrow struck him, no one attacked him.

But suddenly a large amount of blood oozed out of his chest.

"what--"

"Your Highness! What's wrong with you?"

"Your Highness!"

The prince covered his chest with his hands, his expression in agony. He wanted to speak, wanted to shout, but the severe pain in his chest prevented him from shouting.

Blood gushed out of his mouth.

Both sides of the war were stunned by this strange scene.

Who was it? Who suddenly attacked the prince?

He was clearly being protected behind?

Besides, there are no scars on his chest?

Chu Yanchen looked at Long Yi beside him in surprise. Is this some special ability of the Dragon Shadow Guard?

Long Yi also looked at him blankly. No! Absolutely not! If Long Yingwei had this ability, why would he hide until now?

"Grandpa Emperor! Grandpa Emperor, what's wrong with you?"

"Father! Father!"

"Grandfather! No! No! Imperial Physician, Miracle Doctor!"

While everyone outside was stunned, panicked shouts were heard from inside the hall.

Chu Yanchen's face changed. He and Long Yi pushed open the door of the palace and immediately saw the emperor sitting in a wheelchair with large patches of blood oozing from his chest.

However, his condition was the same as the prince's, with no visible scars, only blood.

Nan Xing was feeling the patient's pulse, but she seemed to suddenly understand something. She looked at Song Mingli in astonishment, and then at Chu Yanchen.

"Zi Gu!"

"It's Cheng Li's sub-Gu!"

"Cheng Li is injured and dying!"

The prince raised his eyes and looked towards the hall. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but no one heard his voice. More blood flowed out of his mouth.

"Father!" Chu Xiyuan also saw the injured prince.

He shouted, rushed out of the hall and ran straight towards the prince.

At this moment, both sides of the battle were confused.

The emperor was dying, and the prince was also dying. Who were they fighting for? Who were they trying to seize power for?

No one stopped Chu Xiyuan, and he ran straight to the prince.

"Father, father, please don't die, please don't get into trouble!" Chu Xiyuan burst into tears.

Was he wrong? Was he the one who killed his father?

The prince slowly raised his hand that was covering his chest, wanting to touch Chu Xiyuan's head.

But his strength faded away little by little, and his son's head seemed so high and so far away.

Chu Xiyuan quickly lowered his head, took the prince's big hand and placed it on his head.

"I'm sorry..." the prince said with difficulty.

Chu Xiyuan quickly shook his head, no, no need to say sorry... Don’t die, don’t leave him!

"That arrow... I'm sorry, my heart hurts..."

"I know, I know! Father didn't mean it! Father didn't want to kill me." Chu Xiyuan said anxiously, "You have to live!"

"Imperial physician, where is the imperial physician? Imperial physician, come quickly!"
