Xiao Yu understood Yan Qing’s concerns, but he trusted Su Lingyue more.

Xiao Yu chuckled and said, "That's not necessarily true."

Seeing Xiao Yu say this, Yan Qing didn't say anything more. He paused and asked again, "Prince, do you want Qian Biao and the others to come with you?"

Xiao Yu refused directly, "No, it's not time yet. The killer won't come again so soon."

After the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, the emperor feasted so much that he rested in the Queen's Kunning Palace and did not wake up until noon.

Su Heng knew that the emperor would stay in the Queen's Palace on the first and fifteenth day of every month, so he came to Kunning Palace early in the morning to wait.

After the queen had the palace servants serve tea and snacks, she asked, "Brother, is there anything that makes you come to see His Majesty on a day off?"

"Well, it's something important."

"Your Majesty drank too much yesterday and is now asleep. I'm afraid we'll have to wait."

"It's okay. I have nothing to do today."

"I wonder what my brother wants to talk to Your Majesty about?" The Queen looked at Su Heng.

Su Heng said calmly: "Some court affairs, nothing important."

Su Heng did not tell the Queen about last night's assassination. If she knew that Su Lingyue was involved, she would definitely obstruct his plan.

The Queen looked at Su Heng doubtfully, and then said, "Since my brother wants to see His Majesty, please speak well of the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince's throne has been cold for too long, and I'm afraid it will fade."

Su Heng smiled faintly, "Don't worry, Madam. I won't ignore anyone but the Crown Prince. It's just that it's not the right time yet. We have to take it step by step."

Su Heng waited until the afternoon, when the emperor finally woke up. When he saw Su Heng coming, he felt a little unhappy.

"Su Qing, why are you here today during your day off?"

Su Heng bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

Seeing Su Heng coming over at this time, the emperor guessed that the matter was probably not simple, otherwise he would have asked his sister, the queen, to convey it.

"Go to the Qinzheng Palace."

"Yes."

In the Qinzheng Palace, the emperor dismissed his attendants and asked, "What's the matter, Prime Minister Su?"

"I have some news here that may be of interest to Your Majesty."

"what news?"

"Yesterday, under the cover of darkness, I asked someone to test Prince Su. Who knew that his Kung Fu was almost the same as before."

The emperor couldn't help but frown when he heard this. He knew that Xiao Yu was good at Kung Fu, so he chose a poison that would prevent him from using Kung Fu. Now he can still use martial arts?

Su Heng continued, "Your Majesty, although the military token is important, the hidden danger of Prince Su needs to be guarded against more."

The emperor looked at the map of the frontier on the table and fell into deep thought.

Although Xiliang is a small country located in a remote area, incorporating Xiliang into the territory of Daning was the oath he made when he seized the throne.

However, the Huns in the northern border kept moving south and were eyeing Daning, so he could not act rashly against Xiliang.

With the military talisman in Xiao Yu's hand, swallowing Xiliang would be effortless.

But, the prerequisite is that this country still belongs to him.

The emperor's face gradually turned cold, "Exhort Sima Changfeng."

Hearing this, Su Heng's expression gradually relaxed.

Xiao Yu has set his sights on him. His subordinates cannot kill Xiao Yu, but there is still Sima Changfeng.

As long as Sima Changfeng took action and his men waited for an opportunity to strike, Xiao Yu would surely die.

In the evening, Su Lingyue lay lazily on the bed, staring boredly at the sunset that sneaked in through the window.

The sky outside must be beautiful, but unfortunately she can't move. She never wants to experience this kind of injured life again.

While she was in a daze, Xiao Yu walked in from outside in a moon-white uniform.

"The prince is here?"

When Su Lingyue saw Xiao Yu, there was finally light in her eyes and she was no longer drowsy.

Su Lingyue wanted to prop herself up, but the wound on her back was too painful, so she could only lie down and look up to talk to Xiao Yu.

"do not move."

Seeing that Su Lingyue wanted to get up, Xiao Yu was afraid that she would tear the wound, so he hurried to the bed, picked her up, and let her lean on him.

Xiao Yu brushed the hair by Su Lingyue's ear and asked softly, "Why are you lying there alone? Where's Caidie?"

Su Lingyue raised her head and looked at Xiao Yu, "I was just about to tell the prince about this. Please find me two more maids!"

Xiao Yu was puzzled. "It's such a small matter, you can make the decision yourself."

"Although it's a small matter, considering the prince's current situation, I would rather let this matter pass through the prince's hands."

"When Caiyi was not injured, the two of them were enough to handle matters in the inner house, but now there are two more patients, and we are really short of manpower."

Xiao Yu chuckled, "Since my princess has spoken, I will send the person to you tomorrow."

Then he looked at Su Lingyue again and asked inquiringly: "You talked about the situation, why don't you tell me about my situation, Princess?"

Su Lingyue raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Yu, who was staring at her with a scrutinizing look.

She felt a little guilty, lowered her head and looked away, and said in a low voice: "It's probably because we are surrounded by enemies on all sides."

"Are you worried about me, Princess?"

Xiao Yu gently stroked Su Lingyue's cheek, lifted her chin and made her look at him.

"Of course I'm worried."

Su Lingyue's cheeks turned slightly red as she spoke.

Xiao Yu looked at the slightly red ears and cheeks and thought they were very beautiful. He held Su Lingyue's chin and kissed her.

Perhaps what Dr. Lu said in the morning worked, Xiao Yu kissed her very lightly this time.

He gently held Su Lingyue's soft lips and sucked gently, very gently.

Xiao Yu kissed her gently for a while and then let her go, smiling as he looked at her eyes which were filled with moisture from the kiss.

"Su Lingyue, I'm worried about you too, so I found another guard for you."

Su Lingyue was puzzled, "I have guards, Your Majesty, you don't have to find them for me."

Xiao Yu looked into Su Lingyue's eyes and said in a tone that could not be refused, "It's a female guard, she's very skilled, she will be here tomorrow."

Su Lingyue understood what Xiao Yu said, and he even emphasized the pronunciation of "female".

Having one more guard is not a bad thing. "Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

Su Lingyue gladly accepted Xiao Yu's protection.

However, the next morning, when Su Lingyue saw the guard in person, even though it was August and even though he was lying on the soft bed, she couldn't help but shudder.

The one who came was a woman dressed in black. She wasn't stunningly pretty, but she was pretty and attractive.

To say that she is pretty is to ignore her almond-shaped eyes that exude a sharp chill.

Su Lingyue tried to remain calm, and forced a smile, "Miss, are you the new guard that the prince has found?"

The woman slammed the sword in her hand on the table and said coldly, "Yes."

Although the voice is cold, it is also crisp and somewhat pleasant to the ear.

Su Lingyue forced a smile, "Why do you seem to be here to take my head instead of protecting me?"

The woman snorted coldly, "You are self-aware. If he hadn't stopped you, your head would no longer be on your neck."

After hearing her words, Su Lingyue couldn't help but shrink her neck.

Xiao Yu still had a conscience. He found a guard who wanted to kill her, and he even knew to give instructions in advance to prevent others from killing her.

What a good husband!
