Xuanyuan Chengyin said: "After investigation by this palace and the national master, we found that Shiqin's identity is unusual. I don't know why she approached you. Now this palace requires you to hand her over to the national master for personal interrogation."

His voice was filled with unquestionable authority, and his eyes were fixed on Xuanyuan Chengze, observing his reaction.

Sure enough, although Xuanyuan Chengze tried his best to conceal it, there was still a hint of panic in his eyes. Xuanyuan Chengyin's heart sank, knowing that Xuanyuan Chengze definitely knew something.

"Your Highness does not agree." Xuanyuan Chengze refused without hesitation: "Even if her identity is different, she has not harmed Your Highness. Why do you want to take her away and kill her?"

"It's not about killing her completely." Jiuli said, "It's about letting her go back to where she should go."

Xuanyuan Chengze shook his hands angrily, and his sleeves drew a sharp arc under the dim light.

"What is the right place to go? Don't be so pretentious. Shiqin belongs to my Highness. The Third Prince's Mansion is where she should go. There is no other place."

"Don't let your emotions get the better of you, Third Brother." Xuanyuan Chengyin frowned slightly. "The Imperial Master is also following the rules. Although it remains to be seen whether the matter is as we suspected, we must take Shiqin away for investigation anyway."

"I don't care what the rules are. As the crown prince and the imperial teacher, do you think you can doubt someone for no reason? Shiqin is my person. I will protect her to the end and will never let you take her away."

The two sides were in a stalemate.

Jiuli said: "My master has a magic mirror. Do you dare to ask her to use it?" He fixed his eyes on Xuanyuan Chengze, waiting for Xuanyuan Chengze's response.

"Why should I let you take a look?" Xuanyuan Chengze was panicking, and pursed his lips lightly: "Is it because of your groundless speculation? We don't know if it's a magic mirror. What if Shiqin is hurt?"

Xuanyuan Chengyin advised: "Third brother, calm down. Jiuli is our Xuanyuan's state teacher and is now fulfilling his duties. Monsters cannot appear in the imperial city, which will damage the royal fortune. For the sake of our Xuanyuan Dynasty, all suspicious persons must be thoroughly investigated."

Some monsters feed on the royal dragon energy. This was how the previous dynasty was destroyed. Therefore, after the establishment of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, it was clearly required that monsters must not approach the imperial city.

"Your Highness will not allow it." Xuanyuan Chengze mocked: "When you investigated Shiqin, did you check my father's harem? Since you are so responsible, why don't you check if he has been bewitched by a monster?"

"We have checked the palace and there are no demons." Xuanyuan Chengyin said helplessly: "I know you are reluctant to part with Shiqin, but it is our responsibility as the children of the royal family to stabilize the Xuanyuan Kingdom. You must not act on impulse."

"I said no, and that means no." Xuanyuan Chengze did not give in. "It is late at night, Crown Prince and Imperial Master, please go back. This temple is too small, so I will not keep you two."

Jiuli and Xuanyuan Chengyin looked at each other, and the moment their eyes met, both of them made some decision.

Xuanyuan Chengyin suddenly made a move and with lightning speed, he restrained Xuanyuan Chengze with his arms.

At the same time, Jiuli's figure drew a beautiful arc in the air and quickly disappeared into the backyard.

This series of actions happened very quickly, and Xuanyuan Chengze was caught off guard. He reacted quickly and tried to break free from Xuanyuan Chengyin's arms, but was entangled by him.

"You guys!" Xuanyuan Chengze was very anxious and started fighting with Xuanyuan Chengyin regardless of anything.

The prince was a man of both military and literary talents, and Xuanyuan Chengyin was no less capable than him, even better than him in martial arts. After only a few rounds, he broke away from the prince and flew away to Qinyuan.

Xuanyuan Chengyin hurriedly followed.

So the three of them arrived at the Qinyuan at the same time.

The first to arrive was undoubtedly Jiuli.

A white shadow passed through the darkness and landed silently outside the piano courtyard. Its long hair fluttered in the wind and its eyes were cold and sharp.

He listened attentively for a moment, determined Yun Yuan's location, and rushed into the room like a ghost.

There was a faint aroma in the room, but it did not distract him.

His eyes quickly swept across the room, finally stopping on the woman behind the curtain. Jiuli rushed forward without hesitation and grabbed her arm.

"Follow me!" Jiuli said coldly, his tone full of unquestionableness.

Yun Yuan was shocked by the sudden change. Her beautiful eyes widened, and after thinking for a while, she decided not to resist.

It's not that she doesn't want to resist, but her current skills are only at the level of the Four-Tailed Fox, and she can't fight against the Nine-Tailed Fox. It's better for her to not reveal anything first and see what Jiuli's purpose is. If she can get away with it, she will.

"Let go of Shiqin!"

Xuanyuan Chengze flew towards Yun Yuan anxiously. He had only one thought in his mind - Yun Yuan must not be harmed.

Jiuli held Yun Yuan tightly with one hand and waved the other hand casually. A transparent halo instantly enveloped Xuanyuan Chengze.

Xuanyuan Chengze was shocked to find himself trapped in this transparent circle. No matter how hard he hit it, he could not break through this seemingly fragile but indestructible barrier.

He was extremely anxious and kept hitting the barrier. However, no matter how hard he tried, the transparent circle of light always trapped him firmly, preventing him from moving forward even a single step.

"Jiuli, let Shiqin go. If you have anything to say, come to me."

At this time, Xuanyuan Chengyin chased over and fell to the ground.

He looked at Yun Yuan who was caught by Jiuli. Her stunning appearance showed her fragility, which made people feel pity for her.

Xuanyuan Chengyin couldn't bear it: "Jiuli, let her go first. With the two of us here, she can't run away."

Jiuli let go of Yunyuan.

Yun Yuan lost her support and fell weakly onto the cold, hard ground. Her snow-white skirt spread out on the ground like a blooming flower.

She raised her head innocently, her face was as pale as frost, her long eyelashes trembled fragilely like a cicada's wings, she looked so pitiful, her beautiful eyes were full of confusion and bewilderment.

"Master Imperial Master, what did I do to cause you to misunderstand me?"

Her voice was soft and melodious, like a breeze blowing across the lake, causing ripples.

Jiuli didn't know why. Although he clearly told her to have three days, ever since he saw her today, the idea of ​​taking her away from Xuanyuan Chengze became stronger and stronger, as if an invisible hand had grasped his heart so tightly that he couldn't ignore it.

His intuition had saved his life many times and allowed him to avoid many disasters. This time, he was equally convinced that this intuition would not be wrong.

So when the prince also found out that Shiqin had a different identity, he went with the flow and revealed all his guesses.

The two hit it off immediately and decided to go to the Third Prince's Mansion to investigate the identity of the fake Shiqin.

It would be best if she is not a monster, but if so, they must send her away, regardless of whether Xuanyuan Chengze agrees or not.
