The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

Only after Lu Fengyi left with the maid did Xie Xi breathe a sigh of relief. Now that Meng Huaijun was still there, if Lu Fengyi continued to have wild thoughts, it would damage his image as the crown prince.

"Your Highness."

After a moment's silence, Meng Huaijun suddenly spoke, "That Lu Fengyi from before..."

For some reason, the words "heart voice" came to his lips. He tried several times but couldn't say it. Meng Huaijun had no choice but to ask: "Did Your Highness hear it too?"

"Yes."

Xie Xi nodded in acknowledgment.

He had previously thought that he would be the only one who could hear Lu Fengyi's inner thoughts.

But now that he had met Meng Huaijun, Xie Xi had an inexplicable intuition that perhaps, in the future, it would not be just him and Meng Huaijun who would be able to hear his inner voice.

However, according to Xie Xi's observation, the servants, maids and guards in the Prince's Mansion seemed unable to hear it, and neither did the fourth brother and his guards...

Meng Huaijun felt a little uncomfortable when she heard Lu Fengyi's inner thoughts. "Does your highness know why?"

Hearing this, Xie Xi immediately fell into deep thought.

He could hear it probably because Lu Fengyi's tasks were all related to him.

Then it seems that Meng Huaijun was able to hear it because of him?

Meng Huaijun rushed to the Prince's Mansion because he heard Lu Fengyi's thoughts.

Thinking of this, Xie Xi's expression softened, "Maybe it's because I'm lonely."

Meng Huaijun was shocked: "Because of His Highness?"

Xie Xi hummed softly.

As for the reason, he was not in a position to say more.

Meng Huaijun was also very perceptive. Seeing that His Highness stopped talking, he understood and talked about another matter: "Your Highness, I also heard about the Fourth Prince killing my mother from Lu Fengyi..."

“That should be true.”

Xie Xi didn't know why his fourth brother wanted to kill Meng Huaijun's mother, but he would definitely send someone to get to the bottom of this matter.

Hearing this, Meng Huaijun's face became quite solemn, and he thanked him again: "Thank you, Your Highness."

"However, I still have a question."

Xie Xi: "Tell me about it."

Meng Huaijun hesitated for a moment before speaking out: "Between His Highness and the Fourth Prince..."

It's no wonder that he hesitated. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince were both born to the Queen, and they are brothers. If the truth revealed in the end shows that the murderer is indeed the Fourth Prince, will His Royal Highness really not care about the relationship between brothers?

Xie Xi understood what Meng Huaijun had not said. He pursed his lips and did not answer Meng Huaijun's question. Instead, he asked another question: "Does Master Huaijun know anyone in Jiangnan?"

Lu Fengyi mentioned that Meng Huaijun had connections in Jiangnan, and it was with the help of those connections that the fourth brother was able to successfully handle the Jiangnan bribery case.

Meng Huaijun was shocked again, and subconsciously asked, "How did Your Highness know this?"

Xie Xi smiled without saying anything, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Meng Huaijun immediately reacted: "Is it Lu Fengyi?"

Xie Xi: “Exactly.”

Meng Huaijun took a breath and said in disbelief, "Your Highness, Lu Fengyi is so powerful that she even knows that I have made friends in Jiangnan?"

Having said that, Lu Fengyi is indeed very powerful.

However, such a powerful person like Lu Fengyi will only be loyal to him.

Xie Xi's heart softened, and he couldn't help but think that if Lu Fengyi insisted on sleeping with him, it wouldn't seem impossible for him to accept it?

Although there were Concubine Xiao and Zhang Liangyuan in the Crown Prince's Mansion, Xie Xi had never set foot in their rooms...

Xie Xi thought: How about going to Lu Fengyi tonight?

"Lu Fengyi has her own information channels. I don't know where she got the information from."

Xie Xi didn't want Meng Huaijun to know that there were other secrets about Lu Fengyi.

"However, I can answer the question that Master Huai asked just now."

Meng Huaijun: "Your Highness, please speak."

Xie Xi spoke slowly and carefully, "If Fourth Brother really killed your mother with his own hands, I would definitely find a way to make him be punished."

If the emperor breaks the law, he will be punished the same as the common people, not to mention that my fourth brother is just a prince now.

"it is good."

Meng Huaijun suddenly stood up.

He took a step back and knelt down in front of Xie Xi.

Meng Huaijun raised his eyes, his expression solemn and serious: "With your words, I am willing to sacrifice my life for you, even if it means death!"

Xie Xi also stood up and stretched out his right hand towards Meng Huaijun, "Master Huaijun, get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Meng Huaijun stood up and was about to speak, but he saw the Crown Prince looking outside the pavilion and raised his hand to signal him to remain silent.

Meng Huaijun also looked over.

But then I saw a woman dressed as a maid rushing towards this side.

Soon, the woman arrived outside the pavilion.

"This servant greets His Highness."

Xie Xi recognized the maid in front of him. She was Xiao Shuyi's personal maid, brought from the Xiao family. Her name seemed to be...

Green onion?

Why would Xiao Shuyi suddenly send Qingcong to look for him?

Xie Xi was confused and walked out of the pavilion.

He stood on the steps, looking down at Qing Cong, and said, "But something happened to Concubine Xiao?"

Qingcong lowered her head and said, "To reply to Your Highness, the Concubine asked Your Highness to come over, saying that there is something urgent to discuss with Your Highness."

Urgent?

Xie Xi couldn't think of any urgent matter with Xiao Shuyi at the moment, but he remembered that Mu Qing mentioned that Xiao Shuyi went back to the Xiao family today. Could it be that something happened in the Xiao family?

"Okay, I know about this."

Xie Xi said: "Go back and tell your master first, I will be there soon."

"Yes."

Qingcong responded and stood up to leave.

Meng Huaijun came back to his senses and said respectfully, "If Your Highness has other things to do, then I will not disturb you for now."

He paused and continued, "Also, I live in the Luoyang Inn in the west of the city. If Your Highness wants me to do something, just send someone to deliver the message."

Since arriving in Shengjing, Meng Huaijun has only earned a little money by copying books and paying for accommodation in inns. He cannot even afford a house.

"Luoyang Inn?"

Xie Xi suddenly smiled and took out a wooden token from his arms, on which were engraved the words "Luoyang Inn".

Xie Xi handed the wooden token to Meng Huaijun: "Master Huaijun, this is a token specially made by Luoyang Inn. With this token, you can always get free food and lodging."

"This……"

Meng Huaijun did not accept it. He stepped back and refused: "Your Highness, I cannot accept it."

"I can support myself by copying books, and I can also afford the accommodation fee."

“Why can’t we collect it?”

Xie Xi raised his eyebrows and insisted on giving the wooden token to Meng Huaijun: "Since you are going to work for me in the future, what's wrong with me giving you a token first?"

Meng Huaijun: "..."

Unable to refuse His Highness's kindness, Meng Huaijun could only accept the token and leave.
