The Adventures of the Crying Princess

An hour later, Yi Tong returned and said, "Something happened to the master. Our people have searched all possible routes but couldn't find him. The brothers asked the guards at the city gate, and they said that no one has ever entered the palace after the hour of You."

Yuwen Ji and Bai Yinan's faces instantly darkened.

"Don't worry, maybe Xiaobai has a sudden idea to climb over the wall..." Su Beichen stopped talking halfway. With Bai Yimeng's current physical strength, it was not enough to support her to climb over the wall.

Yuwen Ji and Bai Yinan rushed out and when they reached the gate of the mansion, they saw Bai Yimeng covered in blood and holding something in his hand.

"Xiaobai." Yuwen Ji rushed over and hugged him, "What's going on?"

"Don't ask any more questions, just carry him back to the room."

Doctor Guo and Valley Master Long had gloomy faces the whole time, Bai Yinan didn't even dare to breathe, and Su Beichen was so anxious that he ran around like a top.

The calmest person was Yuwen Ji. He was not afraid that anything would happen to her, and he would accompany her wherever she went.

"Why did something happen to Xiaoqi again?" Luo Jingran and Su Xiaobei got the news and hurried over.

Bai Yimeng was fine. The blood on her body was not hers. The reason she looked pale was simply because she was tired.

"Master, don't worry, I'm really fine." Bai Yimeng raised his eyelids and smiled at Master Longgu.

"Don't call me Master, you are my Master. My little ancestor, you are not dissatisfied with your own life, you are dissatisfied with Master's life."

After scolding him for a while, he couldn't help but sigh, "Baby, let's go back to the valley. No matter how naughty and mischievous you are in the valley, the master won't care about you.

You said you have only been in the capital for over a month and you are covered in injuries. Master has lost half his life because of you. Let's go back. You are not compatible with this place."

Bai Yimeng was amused by his master. "Master, you are good at medicine, but when did you become proficient in divination? Besides, there is no horoscope for this city, so how do you know that our horoscopes are incompatible?"

"Don't talk back. If the master says it doesn't work, then it doesn't work." Even though he knew his beloved disciple was fine, he couldn't help but feel scared. He looked at Bai Yinan with wide eyes, "Yinan..."

"I wanted to go on my own, Master. Don't blame my elder brother." Bai Yimeng hugged his master's waist like a shameless person.

"Naughty boy, let Master go." Dragon Valley Master rubbed his apprentice's head, "Forget it, you are not allowed to get out of bed these few days, just rest in bed.

I just recovered a little bit, but all this trouble is in vain." Master Long knew that it was useless to complain.

Even Bai Yinan might not be able to stop this little disciple.

"Okay, old man, the kids have their own ideas. You and I are old-fashioned and can't help. Why are you making trouble? Come on, stop wasting time and help me make the medicine." Doctor Guo pulled his fellow apprentice and walked out.

For the first time, Bai Yimeng felt that his master seemed to have grown a lot taller.

After Valley Master Long and Doctor Guo left, Bai Yinan sat next to his sister and fixed her hair. "Why did you become like this?"

"It's okay, I just met an assassin sent by King Qi."

"Killer? How can this be tolerated..." Su Beichen was dumbfounded, and for a moment he felt as if someone had pressed his acupoints.

After Valley Master Long and Doctor Guo left, everyone ran to see Bai Yimeng.

"Okay, don't worry. They're all baby cabbages. I took care of them. By the way, where did you put the package I brought back?"

Bai Yinan had already seen what was in the package. "Little sister, tell me, big brother, who is this group of people's target?"

"Of course it's the judge from the Criminal Court!" The package contained the judge's medicine box. Of course, the medicine box contained not only medicinal materials, but also handwritten letters from King Qi and Man Jiang.

Bai Yinan had mixed emotions, he could imagine how dangerous it was just now and what his sister had been through.

"Brother? Will you... return it to me?"

"No, I'll leave this to His Majesty. Little sister, don't worry about this matter."

The next morning, in front of all the civil and military officials, someone reported Yuwen Ji, saying that Yuwen Ji colluded with the rebels, broke the law knowingly, and embezzled.

In short, it means that the Criminal Court sentenced Yuwen Ji to release him.

"Third brother, what do you say?" Emperor Chengde closed his eyes and rubbed his temples.

The old emperor trusted his son, but it was hard to say whether there was a mischievous monkey living in his house.

The Bai family had been loyal ministers for generations, so how could they leave behind a devil? The old emperor couldn't understand why the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion was full of law-abiding people, so how could they really raise a monkey?

"Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with me." Yuwen Ji bowed.

"Third brother, think about it, could it be Princess Jing'an who did it?" The King of Qi raised his eyebrows, looking like he was watching a fun event and was not afraid of any big trouble.

"Xiao Bai is ill and has been bedridden for the past few days. I have been taking care of her. Now, let alone letting her break out of prison, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to get out of bed and walk around."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chengde could no longer sit still. "How is the little monkey? Didn't you say he was getting better? Last time I saw him, he looked fine."

Seeing that Emperor Chengde's expression was not right, the King of Qi was a little anxious, "Father, my third brother is obviously trying to cover up for me. No matter how weak a person is, he shouldn't be taken care of for so long. It's clearly an excuse.

We have no way to verify it, and we have no way to call people to the hall to determine the truth."

Prince Mu quickly chimed in, "Your Majesty, I have long heard that the youngest daughter of the Bai family is very skilled. Last time, my youngest daughter was saved thanks to the help of the young princess of the Bai family. How could someone with such skills be easily injured? It is simply unbelievable."

King Mu didn't say a bad word about Bai Yimeng, but every word he said was that Bai Yimeng was faking illness.

"Father, I think it would be better to invite the little princess of the Bai family to the palace and let the imperial physician treat her.

If you are really sick, you can ask the imperial physician to prescribe a prescription, which can be regarded as a favor from the emperor to the Bai family. "The prince stepped forward and interrupted.

Emperor Chengde was in a dilemma. If he invited her to the palace, whether it was true or not, it would hurt his future daughter-in-law's heart. If he didn't invite her, he would be worried about the little girl.

"Father, the child is really sick. He can't be tormented. He had a fever all night last night."

It would have been better if Yuwen Ji hadn't said this, but once he said this, Emperor Chengde couldn't sit still. He immediately ordered Eunuch Chen to go and invite him in person. He repeatedly told him to use a large sedan chair with charcoal and quilts inside.

The King of Qi only heard that someone was invited to the palace, and ignored all the quilts and other things. He happily waited to watch the show.

About half an hour later, Bai Yimeng was ushered into the main hall. Yuwen Ji saw the little girl and hurried forward to check if she was still feverish. "I'm sorry for making you suffer."

"Don't say that. It has nothing to do with you." Bai Yimeng stepped forward and bowed politely. She could be unruly in private, but now that so many people were here, she couldn't bring shame to the Bai family.

"Get up quickly." Emperor Chengde walked down and gently helped the man up. "I heard that you were ill before, but I thought it was not serious. When I asked just now, the third brother said that you couldn't even get out of bed. How could it be so serious?"

"Father, please don't think this is a good thing. In my opinion..."

"Shut up! If I don't support her, Princess Jing'an won't be able to stand up. Second brother, what do you want? Kill her?" Emperor Chengde's veins were throbbing, and he asked sternly, "I trust the daughter of the Bai family. On the contrary, there is a spy from the Kingdom of Yue living in your house, and I am still investigating this. I will not wrongly accuse you, nor will I condone anyone."

Emperor Chengde's attitude towards the collusion between King Qi and Emperor Xianfeng was very subtle. On the surface, he showed favor to King Qi, but as to whether he would really investigate further, no one knew.

“Your Majesty, I think Princess Jing’an doesn’t seem to be sick, but rather has internal injuries, or…” Perhaps seeing that the King of Qi was useless, the Crown Prince took to the battlefield himself.

"Your Highness, you don't know that I sent her to assist the Third Prince in attacking the Kingdom of Yue. She encountered bad guys and was injured on the way. This is not only known to me, but also to many people."

After Emperor Chengde said this, the prince had no choice but to shut up.
