When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!

"Alright! Be quiet!"

The queen, who had been watching the show in silence, finally spoke up. Seeing that the queen mother looked unhappy, she said something to stop the annoying show:

"It's not a big deal, but Miss Xu, you're going too far!

This makes it really hard for the ladies to bear this anger!

From now on, I will apologize to all the ladies involved in this matter and seek their forgiveness!

If you are not summoned, you should not enter the palace for the time being! You should not attend the banquet in the palace, and leave immediately!

Don’t get too annoying here!”

Xu Baiyu held back her tears and kowtowed to express her gratitude: "Thank you, Queen. I will be leaving right away."

He held the zither in his arms and left the banquet without even daring to raise his head.

Xu Mingxi put down the hot tea and wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.

Now it's just an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

In her previous life, when Xu Mingxi was given the title of "Strong Beauty", she was ridiculed for a long time.

Now, Xu Baiyu’s reputation as a person with bad intentions and stealing other people’s works will spread after today.

Suddenly, a kind voice came from above: "Second Miss Xu, you have also been wronged today.

I am not in a position to get involved in your Xu family's affairs, so I will give these to you as compensation."

Xu Mingxi stood up and knelt down, with not much joy on his face: "Thank you, Queen Mother."

Seeing her calm demeanor, the Queen Mother nodded in satisfaction: "I heard that you are the future Princess Qi.

Yes, he was magnanimous and calm, and even when he was framed by his concubine sister, he did not get angry on the spot.

He is a man of general knowledge.”

He tapped He Yunyin's forehead again and said, "I heard that you two have become good friends recently. Yin'er should learn from her."

"Queen Mother, Yin'er knows about this. This time, it's not Yin'er's impulse, but she really can't stand Xu Baiyu bullying others like this!"

"Okay, I understand. You..."

After Xu Baiyu left, the banquet continued and several noble ladies came on stage to perform one after another.

Qin Zhaolie spotted the figure of his shadow guard, quietly opened a seat, and went to a deserted place.

He rebuked in a low voice: "Didn't I tell you not to appear in the palace without my permission!?"

The shadow guard knelt on one knee and apologized, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I have something important to report."

"What's the matter?"

"Prince Rong has already arrived in Lizhou. Our people were a step late. All the spies in the dark were controlled by Prince Rong. We don't know where they are now."

"Asshole! How did he know? Is there a traitor?"

The shadow guard didn't say anything, he also guessed so.

Although we don't know how Prince Rong instigated them to rebel, but as it stands now, this is very likely to be the case.

"What about the people in the open? The people on his list should be dealt with quickly. No clues can be left. I will handle the follow-up personnel."

"Yes! Your Highness!" Just as the shadow guard was about to leave, Qin Zhaolie called out to him, "Wait, what has Qin Yuechuan been doing recently?"

"That's what I just reported. However, I don't know if there's one thing I can count as -"

"Without further ado!"

"There is a new woman beside Prince Rong, who seems to be taking care of him very closely and never leaves his side."

Qin Zhaolie narrowed his eyes and murmured, "Female? Humph! That's her weakness? Find a way to capture her alive."

"But Prince Rong is almost inseparable from her, so there is no chance for her to leave..."

The shadow guard was in a dilemma. It was indeed difficult to pull a tooth out of a tiger's mouth.

"Since they are inseparable, why can't you try to separate them? Or lure them outside? Everything depends on human effort! Why do I support you?"

"This……"

"Go away, I'll wait for your good news."

Qin Zhaolie's tone left no room for discussion. The shadow guard gritted his teeth, clasped his fists and said, "I obey your command!"

After the shadow guard disappeared, Qin Zhaolie looked around, confirmed again that there was no one around, and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Meanwhile, Lizhou.

Qin Yuechuan, Xu Xinyue and their entourage stayed temporarily in the prefectural government.

Except for necessary local officials, no one else in the prefecture knew Qin Yuechuan's true identity. They were only told that he was an extremely distinguished guest and were served carefully and properly.

Qin Yuechuan took Xu Xinyue into consideration and arranged for her to live in the same courtyard with him.

The prefect Sun You was an insightful man. He had some ideas in mind and was very polite to Xu Xinyue.

Qingyang felt that Qin Yuechuan's condition was a little off recently.

It seemed to have started when Miss Xu got hot in the carriage...

On the way, they encountered several waves of assassins who were probably sent by Qin Zhaolie, who wanted to kill Zheng Rang. The prince was annoyed by the noise, so he personally went on the scene with a murderous look and quickly killed them all.

Qingyang felt that the hostility surrounding Qin Yuechuan was terrifyingly strong.

He stood at the door of the study room that Sun You had specially opened for Qin Yuechuan, holding the information in his hand, hesitating whether he should go in.

"Standing outside as a door god? Come in!"

Qin Yuechuan's cold voice came from inside the door.

Qingyang swallowed, closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and stepped in.

“Your Majesty, this is the testimony of those people.

Since they thought they were abandoned by Qin Zhaolie, they agreed to join us..."

"Well, once you've spit it out, it's all dealt with."

Qin Yuechuan said coldly without even raising his head.

"Ah? ...Your Majesty, they said they want to switch to us."

"Qingyang, I changed my mind.

Since they can betray Qin Zhaolie, they will be able to betray us one day. If we show leniency now, it will lead to disaster in the future.

You can’t stay.”

Qin Yuechuan's voice was cold, and every word he spoke was decisive.

But Qingyang was a little stunned: The prince was not like this before.

Last time, Zhu Yingnian at least survived, but why do they want to kill him all this time?

Never mind. Since it is an order, he just needs to execute it. There is no need to think too much.

Qin Yuechuan added: "However, since we are silencing them, we cannot let people know that it was Prince Rong's mansion that did it."

"Your Majesty means——"

"Didn't Zheng Rang say that there was a 'kind-hearted person' who helped him? Then of course he did it."

Qingyang realized: put the blame on Qin Jizhao.

"If Qin Zhaolie has additional reinforcements, they will all be killed without leaving a single one alive."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Thinking about what he was going to say next, Qingyang hesitated.

Qin Yuechuan saw that he had not left, so he finally raised his eyes and asked him, "What else?"

"Several officials held a banquet at Chunxi Tower to invite His Majesty to a gathering."

Qin Yuechuan's face showed a bit of gloom, and he paused for a moment: "No."

Qingyang probably knew what he was worried about: "Your Highness, they are Qin Zhaolie's people in public, I'm afraid we have to deal with them a little bit..."

"Qingyang, I won't go."

Qin Yuechuan's aura became increasingly cold and fierce.

Today, Qingyang didn't know where he got the courage from, and he said in a low voice: "My Lord, Miss Xu is in good health, she should be fine..."

Qin Yuechuan's anger suddenly increased: "Get out!"

Qingyang knew that Qin Yuechuan was angry and was about to raise his leg when a clear female voice came from behind him:

"So you're not going because of me?"

Qin Yuechuan paused, glanced at Qingyang, and stood up to greet Xu Xinyue who walked in.

The voice was gentle, without any of the coldness from before:

"No, Yueyue, don't think too much. It's me who doesn't want to have a feast with them."

Qingyang quietly retreated and closed the door from the outside.

"Qin Yuechuan, I didn't mean to listen. I just felt bored and wanted to go out for a walk, and then I heard it..."

Qin Yuechuan smiled gently:

"It's okay, Yueyue, don't worry about it. There's no place here that you can't go."

"Qin Yuechuan, it's been so long, I probably know that there might be something wrong with me..."

Qin Yuechuan's heart was shocked: "Yueyue, you——"

Xu Xinyue opened her hand and looked at her palm:

"I don't know why I seem to have grown up so much overnight. Xiaochan, Xiaoshu, and you too, everything is very unusual.

So something must be wrong with my body, right?"
