Chapter 1093: Domineering Qin Canglan
The Empress understood. “Yes, Mother.”
The Empress Dowager said to Su Xiaoxiao, “It’s been hard on you. I’ll get someone to send you back to the residence.”
Princess Jingning said, “Grandmother, Jingning, send Madam Wei off.”
“Sounds good.”
The Empress Dowager nodded and brought the Empress out.
She instructed at the door and Xiao Duye, Xiao Shunyang, and Xiao Zhonghua entered.
Xiao Duye only spoke to Princess Jingning.
Xiao Shunyang’s attitude towards Princess Hui An was not as close as before.
Xiao Duye had fallen out of favor with Emperor Jing Xuan. What was about to happen was definitely a battle for the throne. Princess Jingning and the Empress were forces he had to fight for.
Xiao Shunyang had been tricked by Wei Ting and the others in the southern border. He seriously suspected that Hui An had also been taken away by Wei Ting’s accomplices.
This sister had long been biased towards the Wei family.
Xiao Zhonghua walked over and handed Princess Hui An a handkerchief. ‘Go back first. I’ll visit you later.”
“Yeah.”
Princess Hui An took the handkerchief and left the Qianqing Palace with Princess Jingning and Su Xiaoxiao.
She was in a very low mood.
It seemed that those carefree days in the past could never be returned.
Of the three brothers who were once very close to her, only her third brother was left.
“Jingning, aren’t you sad?” she asked.
Princess Jingning said, “What are you sad about? Father’s illness or your brothers’ attitude?”
“Both,” Princess Hui An said.
Princess Jingning said calmly, “Being sad doesn’t change anything. Everything is a personal choice.”
His father wanted to eat immortal pills. It was useless to persuade him. In the end, he would harm himself.
It was his choice.
If their three brothers wanted to fight for the throne, they would eventually kill one another.
This was also their choice.
“Do you want to come along?” Princess Jing Ning asked calmly.
“What?” Princess Hui An looked at her with tears in her eyes.
Princess Jingning looked at her red and swollen eyes and said, “Send your sidekick off.”
Princess Hui An wiped her tears. “Yes.”
The three of them got into Princess Jingning’s carriage.
Princess Hui An glanced at Jingning and said, “You admit that she’s my sidekick?”
Su Xiaoxiao wanted to laugh.
Princess Jingning said angrily, “You’re so shameless. Does it matter if others admit it?”
Princess Hui An snorted. “Of course it matters. Also, I’m not the shameless one! You’re the shameless one! Return my little vault to me!”
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned. “Huahua, did you give your small vault to Princess Jingning?
Before Princess Hui An could redeem herself, Princess Jingning’s face darkened. “What did you call her?”
Su Xiaoxiao said with some reservations, “Hua… Hua?” Oh no.
She was used to calling her that in the southern border.
There was going to be another fire in the backyard.
Princess Hui An held Su Xiaoxiao’s arm and showed off. “My little sidekick, she can call me whatever she wants!”
Princess Jingning’s eyes were sharp. Su Xiaoxiao blinked. “Ningning.”
Princess Jingning was speechless.
Princess Hui An had an extremely sad day. When the carriage arrived at the Protector Duke’s Estate, she had already fallen asleep on Su Xiaoxiao’s shoulder.
The carriage stopped.
The coachman was about to report when Princess Jingning signaled him to keep quiet.
The coachman understood and carefully hung up the curtain and placed the carriage stool.
Su Xiaoxiao gently helped Princess Hui An up and leaned her against the soft pillow.
Then, she whispered obsequiously, “I’ll go back first. Ningning, take care.” Princess Jingning hummed casually.
Su Xiaoxiao carried the small medicine box and got out of the carriage.
Princess Hui An was uncomfortable leaning on the soft pillow. She moved and lay on Princess Jingning’s lap.
Princess Jing Ning glanced at her idiotic sister. “How dare you.”
Princess Hui An was sleeping soundly.
Princess Jingning instructed the coachman calmly, “Go back to the palace… drive slowly.”
In Emperor Jing Xuan’s bedroom, the three brothers were guarding him by the bed.
Eunuch Cheng and Eunuch Fu were both there.
Only two imperial physicians were left, and the rest went to the imperial hospital to standby.
Xiao Duye asked Xiao Zhonghua angrily, “Third Brother, where did you go after Father fell ill? Why did you disappear for the entire day?”
Xiao Zhonghua said calmly, “Jing Yi was followed by two unknown assassins on the way back to the capital. I went with him to capture the assassins.” Xiao Duye was skeptical. “Is that so?”
Xiao Zhonghua said, “Brother, if you don’t believe me, you can send someone to the Marquis of Weiwu’s Mansion to ask. Jing Yi was even injured by the assassin today.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked them to hide the fact that Su Xuan had run away from home because Madam Tao and Matriarch Su didn’t know and she didn’t want them to worry.
Moreover, Jing Yi had indeed encountered two assassins and was indeed injured.
Xiao Duye said coldly, “What a coincidence. You went to capture the assassins as soon as something happened to Father?”
Xiao Zhonghua said unhurriedly, “It’s not like he only started feeling unwell today. I didn’t see Brother enter the palace to visit Father yesterday.” Xiao Duye choked. “That… that’s because Father didn’t tell anyone!”
Xiao Zhonghua said indifferently, “That’s right. Father didn’t say anything. How would I know that something would happen to Father this morning? On the other hand, Big Brother, you arrived so early. Could it be that you planted a spy beside Father?”
Outside, Eunuch Quan lowered his head.
Xiao Duye could not argue with Xiao Zhonghua.
He looked at Xiao Shunyang. “Second Brother, why aren’t you saying anything?”
Xiao Shunyang said, “Brother, don’t you think you’re very noisy?”
Xiao Duye was speechless.
Xiao Shunyang and Xiao Zhonghua had already grasped the secrets of the Liang family. The two of them knew very well that the ones who were really qualified to compete for the position of the crown prince were each other. Emperor Jing Xuan would definitely not appoint Xiao Zhonghua.
However, many ministers in the court would support him.
At this moment, the person who hoped that Emperor Jing Xuan could survive the most was actually Xiao Shunyang.
On the other side, Wei Xu and the others were found by Wuhu’s small army one after another.
The Empress Dowager temporarily sealed news from the palace and did not spread the news of Emperor Jing Xuan’s stroke. They learned about this from Su Xiaoxiao.
“How’s su Xuan?”
The first thing Wei Xu cared about was Su Xuan’s safety.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “He caught a cold and is being treated by Senior.” Wei Xu asked, “Who is Senior?” Su Xiaoxiao said, “Oh, Wei Ting’s master in the Southern Wilderness.”
“The expert who saved Little Seven?”
“That’s him.”
Wei Xu was grateful to his son’s savior. He had always wanted to find an opportunity to thank him personally, but he did not expect him to leave without a word.
Wei Xu brought his sons over, and so did Su MO and Su Li.
The old man and Su Xuan rested.
Su MO touched his brother’s forehead and said to Su Li, “Little Five, stay.”
“Got it, Brother.”
Su Li obediently guarded his fourth brother.
Soon, the Old Marquis arrived. It was Su Xiaoxiao who sent him the news.
The Old Marquis stubbornly refused to look at Su Xuan.
Su MO was helpless.
His grandfather was much more stubborn than his aunt.
However, there was no one of the same generation in the residence as him, so he could not be criticized.
Cheng Sang and Zongzheng Wei’s seniority was the same as his, but the two of them were not familiar with him and could not ask.
“Let’s talk business.”
The Old Marquis said seriously, “Wei Xu, Cheng’er, follow me to the study.” The three of them went to the study and sat down on the chairs.
The Old Marquis said seriously, “Wei Xu, Old Qin expected such a day before attacking Northern Yan.. He said that if he can’t rush back, he asked me to ask you on his behalf: Are you going to rebel?”
