Chapter 18: Chapter Eighteen
The two carriages turned into the side alley one after the other. On both sides of this alley were the backyard walls of the two courtiers. It was so quiet that even the heat could not penetrate here.

Yan Weiguang slowly got out of the car, waved his hands to make the people on his side back away, and came forward and bowed first.

"His Royal Highness, long time no see, my servant Yan Weiguang is polite."

The curtain of the carriage was pulled open, and Wei Huai'en sat in it and nodded slightly.

"You are welcome, Marquis Dingyuan. I didn't expect to see you at King Duan's birthday banquet, but I ran into you here. If you have anything to do, just tell me."

Seeing that Wei Huai'en didn't intend to get out of the car, Yan Weiguang frowned for a moment, then calmed down, straightened up and took a step closer.

"After the spring hunt, I have never had the opportunity to meet His Highness the Crown Prince. I wonder if His Highness is still in good health?
The minister heard that Princess Jiarou was still paying respects to the Buddha in Huang'en Temple, King Duan and the empress were very concerned, and entrusted the minister to visit when he had time.but……"

Wei Huai'en's expression remained unchanged. She had already read the secret report from Shui Jing, and seeing that Yan Weiguang deliberately mentioned this matter, she naturally guessed that Yan Weiguang was the mastermind who sent the dead men to test him that night.

But in any case, just like she can't really tear her face if she can't find Yan Weiguang's handle and evidence, Yan Weiguang also has no evidence, not to mention that Wei Huai'en doesn't think he can guess the truth about women disguised as men.

The princess pretending to be the prince, what an absurd thing, the prince sending Jiarou to do things outside Beijing is more credible than this.

I only heard Yan Weiguang go on to say: "However, I feel that everything Princess Jiarou has done is for His Highness's health. After all, His Highness has been raised in the palace for three months before coming back, and has been suffering from repeated old injuries. There is no way to fully heal.

If His Highness recovers, the princess will naturally not have to stay in Huang'en Temple for a long time.The doctors in Nanlin Mansion are different from the imperial physicians, so some time ago, I specially sent someone to Nanlin Mansion to ask for medicine for His Highness. Sure enough, I found a medicine, which will surely make His Highness recover as before. "

"Oh? Marquis Dingyuan has really worked hard, but Gu's body knows that it's just a small problem, so don't bother Marquis Dingyuan. Xiao Qi, send one to Marquis Dingyuan."

Wei Huai'en didn't want to accept this useless favor, but at least he heard Yan Weiguang admit with his own ears that he had close contacts with the doctors of Nanlin Mansion, which was simply a show off.

He clearly told her that the Nanlin Mansion was in his hands, and even the crown prince and Xuan Yusi couldn't pry it out.

She gritted her teeth quietly, holding back her anger, the future will be long, and she also has Xuan Yusi who is authorized by the imperial power to accompany her, so he won't be proud for long.

"Your Highness, don't rush to refuse, this medicine is called 'Stop'."

Yan Weiguang stared into Wei Huai'en's eyes, and his whole body suddenly changed from respectful to a strange calm suppressing excitement.

"Take it together with your minister's prescription, and within three days your Highness will be cured of all diseases. However, this medicine must not be taken alone, because even if it is just a little smeared on the arrowhead, it will cut the flesh and blood..."

The blood seemed to freeze in an instant, and Wei Huai'en watched his lips open and close.

His voice came into her ears, but it couldn't be digested by her like it was frozen. Instead, it froze her little by little from the inside out. Only the slow beating heart tried to break through the pain of the ice.

"...The toxin will spread throughout the body, causing the poisoned person's five internal organs to rot, spit black blood at the mouth, and die without treatment.

It doesn't sound like much, but does Your Highness know where is the most subtle part of the poison of cessation?
After the poisoned person's breath was cut off, he was not completely dead. If he opened his chest, he could still see his heart beating slowly.

His Highness knows that if the heart does not die, the soul will not die. Until it is nailed into a coffin and buried in the soil, that person may still be conscious and want to ask for help, but he can only die alone in the darkness and silence.

So Your Highness, you should be careful with this medicine. "

Wei Huaien's nails dug deep into his flesh, his hands were covered in blood but he didn't know it.

Although Xiao Qi didn't know the state of Wei Huaide's death, he also understood eighty-nine points from Wei Huaien's reaction. His hand subconsciously touched his waist to draw out his sword and kill Yan Weiguang, but it was in vain.

"Yan... Wei... Guang..."

Wei Huai'en's voice seemed to be squeezed out with all his strength, Xiao Qi glared at the proud Yan Weiguang angrily, and still pulled out the veil to try to break her bleeding fist.

"... Yan... Wei, Guang!"

But Wei Huai'en pushed him away and wanted to move forward, but she knelt in the carriage as if she didn't know how to walk. With one hand on the ground, she clawed at Yan Weiguang who was about to stick his head into the carriage.

But he stepped back easily, and the mocking voice smashed her flesh and blood into slag like a chisel.

"Princess Jiarou, this Marquis is being polite, hahahahaha—"

"Ah——! Yan Weiguang! I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you! Ah——"

Wei Huaien's spine seemed to be broken, lying on the ground, and the hand that didn't scratch Yan Weiguang's face was still leading her to crawl out of the car.

She has completely lost her composure, how can she be so calm!

Because Yan Weiguang told her that she sealed her brother in the coffin with her own hands, so that he could clearly feel the abandonment and death.

And she actually put on her brother's python robe with peace of mind, and it was only today that she heard the truth from the murderer.

Every breath is torture, her ears are buzzing, nothing but pain is still pain, she is dragged into despair by self-blame, because it is too late for her to do anything, too late!
Anger and resentment crazily destroyed her sanity, making her scream at Yan Weiguang with tears in her eyes.

"I am going to kill you--!"

"You'd better worry about yourself first."

Yan Weiguang was very satisfied with Wei Huaien's pain. One of the brothers and sisters died tragically, and the other was broken and lying in the carriage like mud, making him laugh and walk away.

The screams of pain behind him seemed to be heard even when the carriage was far away. He had won this game thoroughly.

"Master, master!"

Xiao Qi hugged Wei Huai'en tightly from behind, tried his best to control her struggle and call back her reason, and at the same time hurriedly asked the coachman to set off back to the East Palace.

Wei Huaien grabbed his arm and struggled away. Even though Yan Weiguang had gone away long ago, she roared hoarsely like a walking dead who only knew revenge, which made Xiao Qi feel like a knife was twisted.

"Let me go...I'm going to kill him! Kill him!"

Her sleeves were covered with her blood and tears, and the swaying carriage finally made Wei Huai'en understand that Yan Weiguang was no longer outside.

But she couldn't calm down at all, too much guilt, self-blame, regret, anger, and hatred rushed into her body, but there was no outlet to release it.

She could only resist Xiao Qi's confinement needlessly, crying hoarsely, as if she had cried all the tears that hadn't been shed that day when she lost her brother.

But what was even more tormenting was that even if she cried all her tears, even if she didn't want anything, as long as Yan Weiguang died, it wouldn't change the fact that her brother was buried alive.

In the end, Xiao Qi still knocked Wei Huai'en out, letting her escape from the whirlpool of pain temporarily.

He held her in a coma and wrapped her hands briefly, then brushed away her messy hair and wiped away the tears on her face.

However, even in the coma, her eyelashes still shed tears from time to time.

In the end, he was really helpless, he had no choice but to bury her face in his arms, held her to dismiss the eyes of the palace people, and put her on the bed.

After too much emotional agitation, Wei Huai'en's face was pale and fragile.

Xiao Qi really wanted to stay here with her, but he had to leave immediately, go to Xuan Yu Division, find General Jiang Jue, contact all the forces of himself and Wei Huai'en, and make preparations before Yan Weiguang continued to attack.

Although it is impossible for Yan Weiguang to expose Wei Huai'en's identity immediately, it will be a matter of time before he is exposed.

Xiao Qi carefully parted Wei Huai'en's hair, and after taking off his outer robe to let her sleep more peacefully, he turned and left the East Palace resolutely.

General's House.

"What did you say!"

After Jiang Jue heard Xiao Qi's explanation, he was so angry that he smashed the tea table with his palm.

"Yan Weiguang! I'm going to kill him now!"

"General, calm down!"

Xiao Qi knew that the fiery Jiang Jue would fight Yan Weiguang to the death, so he quickly stopped him with Jiang Hong who was listening.

"Don't stop me! At worst, I don't want my life. I have to kill him! Killing Huaide and bullying my girl, how many lives he has are enough to pay! Get up!"

Jiang Jue was hugged by Xiao Qi with one arm, and pressed on the seat by Jiang Hong at the waist, his face was black and red with anger.

A person suddenly walked out from behind the screen, and slapped the excited Jiang Jue directly on the face.

"Are you crazy! Girl, we are the only family members left, you don't want to die, have you ever thought about her!"

It was Mrs. Ning who came, and although her eyes were full of tears, this slap made Jiang Jue calm down.

Seeing this, Xiao Qi and Jiang Hong also let go of him, and were greeted by Mrs. Ning to sit back in their seats.

"You are Xiao Qi, right? It's hard for you to be the first to report to us loyally. How is Wynn doing now?"

Madam Ning didn't use a veil, she wiped her eyes indiscriminately with her hand, and asked Wei Huai'en first.

"Your Highness... was too emotional, the villain knocked her out, and she is now sleeping in the East Palace."

Xiao Qi didn't want to lie to the family, so he confessed his arrogance, and then waited for punishment.

Sure enough, when Jiang Jue heard this, he wanted to stand up again: "What! You knocked the girl unconscious!"

Even Jiang Hong glared at Xiao Qi.

"Sit down, both of you!"

Mrs. Ning yelled at the two of them back, then turned her head and said to Xiao Qi: "It's urgent, let her sleep."

Thinking of Wei Huai'en's pain, Mrs. Ning shed tears again: "good boy, you came to us to discuss how to protect Huai'en, right?"

"Yes. The villain thought that Yan Weiguang didn't dare to expose His Highness's identity directly, because he couldn't tell about His Royal Highness's poisoning death and set himself on fire.

Therefore, he will definitely set up a trap to force His Highness to expose himself, so that the emperor's anger will only be directed at His Highness. At that time, even if we tell about Yan Weiguang's poisoning, we will be regarded as biting and slandered because there is no evidence. "

"But there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. Even if we are cautious, is there no other way for Yan Weiguang to expose Wynn in advance?

In my opinion, we still have to act first. "

Jiang Hong frowned and punched his thigh, thinking about how to kill Yan Weiguang.

"We have to strike first."

Madam Ning nodded: "Xiao Qi, do you want to ask us for the command of the Tiger Guards?"

Xiao Qi's thought was broken, and he was caught off guard by Mrs. Ning's see-through eyes.
