The powerful prince and princess who dotes on the world is pregnant again

Chapter 57 If the first plan fails, there is another plan

"Qiuyue, why are you still here?"

Just when the four of them were about to go back to rest, they heard Xia Zixing's voice.

The four of them turned their heads in horror and saw Xia Zixing walking towards them, even though there was blood on her body. He didn't look injured.

The expressions of the four people were all reflected in Xia Zixing's eyes. Xia Zixing approached coldly, "Qiuyue, go back to the room and get me some water to wash up."

Qiuyue nodded happily, sent Xia Zixing back to the wing, and went to fetch water.

Fang Ling and Wen Jing looked at each other and saw disbelief in each other's eyes.

So many killers couldn't kill Xia Zixing, and Xia Zixing was really desperate.

If one plan fails, there is another plan.

They had already made two preparations. First, Duke Dingguo came forward and used money to hire the ghost cult, a killer organization in the world, to assassinate Xia Zixing. If this plan failed, they would implement another plan.

Not long after Xia Zixing returned to the room, Xia Ling came over and brought some pastries.

"Sister, I heard Qiuyue said that you met a killer, are you okay?"

Xia Zixing sneered in her heart, she really knows how to pretend, "Will I still show up here if something happens?"

Xia Ling choked, "Sister, just be fine. Now in the temple, those killers shouldn't dare to come in,"

Xia Zixing didn't say anything and changed into a set of clothes.

"Sister, this is the pastry I brought from the temple. You can try it. The princess and the others have eaten it and they all think it's good." Xia Ling pushed the pastry plate in front of Xia Zixing.

If the assassination fails, is poisoning necessary?

Xia Zixing calmly picked up a piece of pastry and slowly brought it to her mouth, watching Xia Ling's expression from the corner of her eyes.

Um? Isn't it poisoning?

Xia Zixing smelled the pastry. It was not poisoned. He put it directly into his mouth and ate it. It was light and sweet.

Qiuyue came in with water and saw Xia Ling inside, and immediately looked at her with vigilant eyes.

Xia Ling stood up and said, "Sister, please have a good rest. Sister, I won't disturb you." She took a deep look at Xia Zixing and went out.

"Miss, what is she doing here?"

"Maybe he came to see if I was injured,"

Qiuyue immediately put down the basin, "Miss, are you injured?"

Xia Zixing shook his head, picked up a towel and washed his face, his eyes as cold as ice.

It is already evening now, and I will definitely stay in the temple tonight, so there are still many opportunities in the evening.

"Qiuyue, go see which rooms they live in,"

Qiuyue didn't ask why, picked up the water and went out.

Come back and tell Xia Zixing what you find out.

"Humph, they live so close together, and they are not afraid of getting the wrong person.

Everyone ate dinner together, and the atmosphere was a bit weird while eating, mainly because Xia Ling and the others had their own agendas.

Xia Ling was a little worried. The previous killer was arranged by Duke Dingguo, and the next plan was arranged by Wen Jing. She didn't know if Xia Zixing could escape this disaster.

Hope she can't.

During the whole process, Xia Wei had no expression, as if she didn't know what was going on, and she continued to eat and drink without saying a word.

After Xia Zixing finished eating, he got up and went back to the wing.

She needs to go to bed early.

King Xiu entered the palace early in the morning. Emperor Ren received news that there was a flood in Linqing County. The ministers discussed how to treat it. Emperor Ren discussed with the ministers but did not come up with a good solution. King Xiu sat aside all the time. Watch everyone discuss.

"King Xiu, what do you think is the right person to send to Linqing County to rectify the disaster?"

King Xiu glanced at Duke Dingguo opposite, "It turns out to be a place managed by Duke Dingguo, so let Duke Dingguo's people go."

At this time, people from the Ministry of Household Affairs stood up and asked what preparations should be made for disaster relief, including how much silver it would cost.

When Duke Dingguo heard this, his brows tightened, "Your Majesty, although there is a problem in my place, it still belongs to the Yuerong Kingdom. I think that the fifth prince should be sent." Rong Yan, who was standing aside, heard the mention After hearing his name, he immediately stood up and glanced at King Xiu,

He respectfully said to Emperor Ren: "Father, I went to suppress bandits some time ago. My body has not recovered yet, so I am afraid I cannot take on this responsibility."

Emperor Ren looked at the people below with a dark face. These people usually listen to music and perform operas, but when something happens, they are all afraid of death.

Everyone knows that in places with floods, if they are not handled properly, the possibility of plague is high, and these people do not want to go into this muddy water.

"Rest first, we will discuss it later." Emperor Ren threw out his sleeves and walked out of the imperial study.

The rest lasted until all the ministers had lunch in the palace, and then waited for an hour in the imperial study room, before Emperor Ren slowly appeared.

Prince Xiu and the fifth prince sat at Concubine Li's place for a while, and when they were about to go to the imperial study, Lu Yi rushed over.

"Master, something happened,"

Rong Xiu's expression changed, "What's the matter?"

"The fifth concubine went to Tiangong Temple this morning. In addition to the ladies from the Prime Minister's Mansion, she also went with Princess Fang and Miss Wen, the daughter of Marquis Wen Cheng," Lu Yi said in a deep voice.

The fifth prince Rong Yan stood aside. At first he didn't know who it was when he heard the word "princess". Only when he saw the second brother's expression did he remember that it was Xia Zixing.

"Second brother, has something happened to Miss Xia?"

Rong Xiu turned to him and said, "You tell your father, I'm going back first." Before he could finish speaking, he saw a figure leaving.

The fifth prince regained his composure and walked to the imperial study. Before Emperor Ren reached the imperial study, Rong Yan walked in another direction.

At the entrance of the palace, Rong Xiu had just left the palace when he met Duke Dingguo coming in from outside the palace.

"Hey, King Xiu, where are you going? The matter hasn't been discussed yet,"

"Get out of the way," Rong Xiu said sternly.

When had Duke Dingguo been yelled at like this before, his expression immediately changed, "Prince Xiu, the emperor is still waiting for you to discuss matters,"

Duke Dingguo stopped in front of King Xiu and refused to let him leave the palace. Today's matter was originally directed at King Xiu. No matter what he said today, he would not be allowed to leave the palace.

When leaving the palace at this time, King Xiu must have received some news and rushed over to save Xia Zixing.

"Fang Zhong, the Right Envoy must not be looking for you. Don't you want to know where he is?" King Xiu's words made Duke Ding look at him in horror.

He knows Lord Right Envoy, he actually knows, what else does he know?

Duke Dingguo completely forgot his purpose at this time. He was so frightened that he even forgot what happened today.

Seeing him like this, Rong Xiu sneered and turned around and left quickly.

Lu Yi was even more anxious. He didn't expect that everything today was planned by Ding Guogong and others. If they were involved in the palace, they would not receive news from the outside.

If Emperor Ren hadn't come to take a break, he happened to walk to the palace gate again and saw King Xiu's brother standing outside anxiously.

He knew that something must have happened, which is why the younger brother came to the palace in such a hurry. As soon as Lu Yi received the news, he immediately informed King Xiu that nothing would happen to the future princess.

Two fast horses have been prepared outside the palace. Rong Xiu and Lu Yi mounted their horses and went straight to Tiangong Temple.
