After marrying the heirless prince, I gave birth to three children

Chapter 322: The 5th Prince is in trouble again?

Prince's Mansion.

Naturally, Xie Yao could not hide what Xuan Yue did today. She had just left the Xuan family when the news reached Xie Yao's ears.

Zhu Qing reported in a low voice, "Crown Princess, judging from Miss Xuan's expression, I'm afraid she must be very angry."

Because the cursed doll was handled so carefully, Zhu Qing didn't know about it.

"It seems that it's just as the Crown Princess predicted. The Second Miss of the Xuan family is unrepentant. Miss Xuan has even more strictly confined the Second Miss to her house, not allowing anyone to visit her. I heard that she only left a yard full of sage books."

"It seems that Miss Xuan is really angry."

Zhu Qing whispered this, "But now that my cousin has left the capital, Second Miss Xuan should be able to settle down for a while, right?"

Xie Yao remained silent. She didn't take Xuan Shu's matter too seriously. She was thinking about something else...

Those people...isn't it time to take action?

It's been almost ten days since the Fifth Prince fell into the water, and the matter is still under investigation...

Concubine Shu still asked the Crown Prince and Sinan every day, and the answers she received never changed.

The same thing happened today.

After asking, Concubine Shu scolded Xiao Ji and Si Nan again, and then left the Yangxin Palace in a huff.

As soon as she returned to the Yanxi Palace, she heard the palace servants come to report, "Your Majesty, something bad has happened! Something has happened to the Fifth Prince!"

what?

Concubine Shu's expression changed, and she immediately asked, "What happened? What happened to Xiaowu?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The Fifth Prince is fine. Today's incident was safe and sound." At this moment, a familiar voice sounded, and a woman dressed as a palace maid came over slowly.

It was none other than the palace maid Jieyou that Concubine Shu brought back last time.

Concubine Shu's expression changed again.

Jieyou said, "Your Majesty, poison was found in the Fifth Prince's meal today!"

"I asked the imperial physician to examine it, and he said... it's the same poison that the servants around His Highness the Fifth Prince were poisoned with last time."

boom!

Concubine Shu picked up the teacup at hand and smashed it to the ground.

"Your Majesty, calm down." Jieyou stepped forward to comfort Concubine Shu. "Your Majesty, anger is harmful to your health. Besides, didn't you already know the identity of the person who attacked the Fifth Prince last time?"

"I guessed last time that if it didn't work the first time, there's no guarantee it would work the next time. But I never expected... the Crown Prince would be so impatient. Only a few days later, he's already made another move!"

Jieyou looked worried and said, "I have thought of a possibility, but I don't know whether I should tell you or not."

"Speak." Concubine Shu almost squeezed out a word from between her teeth.

She naturally knew that today's "almost poisoning" was a warning and urging to her, intended to intensify the conflict between her and the prince.

But... this is exactly what she was waiting for.

She did not hide the hatred in her eyes at all at this moment. Jieyou just thought that Concubine Shu's hatred was directed at Xiao Ji, and naturally she was happy to see it happen.

"I heard that His Majesty will be waking up soon. Does the Crown Prince wish to eliminate all potential enemies before His Majesty wakes up?"

"The Fifth Prince was almost in danger today, which shows how anxious they are. If Your Majesty doesn't respond, I'm afraid..."

Jieyou sighed softly, "Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince is only five years old."

boom.

Concubine Shu slammed the table beside her, her tone filled with resentment, "You are right, this matter...I will never let it go!"

But the next moment, Concubine Shu became frustrated again. "But I am just a concubine in the harem, without any support from my mother's family. His Majesty is still unconscious and can't make decisions for me and Xiaowu."

"The Princess is even more gullible than the Crown Prince... How can I seek revenge?"

Concubine Shu was filled with regret. "If I had known this would happen, I should have… worked hard these past few years to build up some connections!"

Jieyou's mouth twitched slightly when she heard Concubine Shu's words.

No way?

Is there really no manpower at all?

As Concubine Shu spoke, she observed Jieyou's expression from the corner of her eye, and finally said, "If it really doesn't work..."

"I will take my sword and go to the Yangxin Palace to chop him down!"

Jieyou said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, please don't say such angry words. The Fifth Prince is counting on you."

But apart from that, Jieyou didn't promise anything else.

Concubine Shu had an idea in her mind, but she was afraid that there were some things Jieyou couldn't make the decision on and would need to consult others...

Concubine Shu said some angry words in the Yanx Palace again, and finally the arrival of the fifth prince interrupted her anger.

Jieyou also retreated.

As soon as Jieyou left, Concubine Shu gave a look to a palace maid in the hall, indicating that she should keep an eye on Jieyou.

That night.

Jieyou changed her words to Concubine Shu.

After she once again mentioned that the fifth prince was almost poisoned today, provoking Concubine Shu's anger.

Jieyou said: "Your Majesty, Jieyou has been in the palace for many years and knows some good sisters."

"If Your Majesty can trust me, I am willing to share your worries!"

Concubine Shu was delighted, "Really?"

Jieyou knelt on the ground, the corners of her lips curled up slightly when she heard the words, and when she raised her eyes again, there was only piety, "Seriously!"

"Your Majesty and the Fifth Prince are kind-hearted and should not be schemed against like this!"

Jieyou's words were righteous and awe-inspiring, but Concubine Shu naturally didn't believe a word of it. However, she nodded and said, "Okay! Then I'll leave this matter to you!"

Concubine Shu stepped forward and held Jieyou's hand. "Jieyou, you are truly able to relieve my worries! If this can be accomplished, you will be the benefactor of me and Xiaowu."

Concubine Shu shamelessly promised, "In the future... Xiaowu and I will not treat you unfairly!"

Jieyou's face showed no emotion at all. Instead, she spoke righteously and solemnly, "It is Jieyou's blessing to be able to share the worries of the Empress."

at the same time.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Si Nan was replying, "Your Highness, news came from the Yanxi Palace. In just half a day, Jieyou changed her attitude."

"I offered to share the burden with the Concubine Shu."

"I checked Li You's schedule for today. She is staying in the Yanxi Palace and has not left the palace."

Xiao Ji understood.

In other words, the person who can give orders to Jieyou is in the palace, and in the Yanxi Palace!

Xiao Ji immediately ordered, "Check everyone who had contact with Jieyou today, but be careful not to alert the enemy."

"Yes!" Si Nan agreed immediately and turned around to arrange these things.

Xiao Ji raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows.

Now it seems that this matter is more serious than he expected, and the power of the person behind the scenes in the palace is much deeper than he thought.

This seemingly peaceful palace is actually full of turbulent waves, and beneath the calm lies crisis...

It was not until Xiao Ji returned to the Prince's Mansion and saw Xie Yao that he felt much better.

"Your Highness." Xie Yao only needed to look at Xiao Ji's expression to understand what was going on. "Something happened?"

"Yeah." Xiao Ji nodded. He hadn't planned to hide this from Xie Yao. "There's been some movement at the Yanxi Palace."

Xie Yao immediately perked up, and after listening to Xiao Ji's account of what happened today, she also frowned.

She reached out and held Xiao Ji's hand.

Although there is no clue yet, His Highness is not alone, she is with His Highness.

Xiao Ji understood what Xie Yao meant, and his heart warmed. He raised his eyes and gave Xie Yao a gentle smile, then reached out and held her in his arms.

"Yaoyao, you and Zhaozhao Suisui must be extremely careful in the next few days."

Fishing is fishing, but nothing must happen to his wife and children!

"Okay." Xie Yao nodded, "Don't worry, Your Highness."

Xiao Ji naturally believed in Xie Yao's ability and nodded when he heard it. After dinner, Xie Yao mentioned that she had encountered the man in black twice.

"I always feel that the person in black deliberately appeared in front of me." Xie Yao said: "Even if she is not Xie Yujiao, she must be someone related to Xie Yujiao."

of course……

She was more inclined to believe it was Xie Yujiao.

Coming back from the dead is certainly horrifying, but putting aside the possibility that Xie Yujiao faked her death, even if she was truly dead...

She still clearly remembers her past life.
