Double Life: The Sickly Prince Eavesdrops on My Heart

Qin Ruhuan interrupted, "Could it be the Third Prince?"

King Jing's expression was stern, and his eyes became sharp. "The third prince? He is indeed the most likely one! He has always been dissatisfied with me and the left prime minister, and his mind is deep and unpredictable."

Bai Xiaofeng analyzed: "The Third Prince has coveted the throne for a long time. The Left Prime Minister is an important minister of the Emperor, but he does not use him. If the Left Prime Minister can be removed, it will undoubtedly weaken the Emperor's power."

"Moreover, he may think that you, King Jing, have a close relationship with the Left Prime Minister, and getting rid of the Left Prime Minister will also be a blow to you."

King Jing snorted coldly: "If he really dares to do this, I will not let him go!"

Qin Ruhuan said worriedly: "But there is no solid evidence pointing to the Third Prince. We can't punish him without solid evidence!

King Jing pondered for a moment and said, "This matter still needs to be carefully considered. Don't alert the enemy yet, continue investigating secretly to see if we can find more clues. At the same time, we must strengthen the defense of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion and never let the assassin take advantage of the opportunity again."

Bai Xiaofeng and Qin Ruhuan both nodded in agreement.

King Jing looked at the left prime minister with a firm gaze and secretly swore in his heart that he would bring the assassin to justice and protect the people around him.

Afterwards, he discussed some follow-up matters with Bai Xiaofeng and Qin Ruhuan before leaving the Left Prime Minister's Mansion. This time, Feixue took the initiative to ask to protect Qin Ruhuan in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Qin Ruhuan stayed by her father Zuo Xiang's bedside all night, worried.

Zuo Xiang's condition was very unstable and he had repeated high fevers, which made her very anxious.

She kept wiping her father's forehead and body with a wet towel, trying to lower his body temperature, while whispering in his ear, hoping that he would get better soon.

When the sky was just getting light, Chunhua, Qiuyue, Xiahe and Dongxue prepared breakfast for Qin Ruhuan!

"Miss, it's time to eat!" Chunhua shouted.

When Qin Ruhuan came out and saw the table full of sumptuous food, her eyes suddenly lit up and an expression of surprise and joy appeared on her face.

"Chunhua, go call Doctor Bai and Feixue to come have breakfast together!" Qin Ruhuan said.

Feixue got up early and practiced martial arts. Now he was hungry and walked over when he heard it was time to eat.

"Doctor Bai, Feixue, come and have breakfast!" Qin Ruhuan said.

"Miss Qin, I'll just go and eat with the servants!" Feixue felt a little embarrassed.

"Sit down! No need to be so polite!"

Feixue had no choice but to sit down. He couldn't help but say, "Wow, this is the food in the Prime Minister's Mansion! So many delicious foods!" As he said that, he swallowed his saliva.

Chunhua at the side said with a smile: "We prepared these specially for the brothers and sisters."

Feixue picked up the chopsticks, picked up a mouthful of food and put it into her mouth. After chewing it carefully, her eyes widened even more and she said, "No wonder Feiye always takes the initiative to come to the Xiangfu to protect Miss Qin. It turns out that the food here is so delicious! I have never eaten such delicious dishes before."

Qiuyue smiled and said, "We are very good at cooking. The young lady also loves the food we cook. Even the chefs in the mansion can't compare to us!"

Feixue nodded while eating, mumbling incoherently: "Delicious, delicious..."

Bai Xiaofeng joked: "Indeed, it's much better than the food in your palace!"

After dinner, Bai Xiaofeng came again to treat Zuo Xiang. Qin Ruhuan anxiously waited for the diagnosis.

After taking the pulse, Bai Xiaofeng frowned slightly and said, "The Prime Minister's condition is still a bit recurrent, but fortunately it is not serious for the time being. Continue to take the medicine according to the previous prescription, and you need to take more careful care."

Qin Ruhuan felt a little relieved after hearing this, and nodded quickly to thank him: "Thank you, Doctor Bai. I will definitely take good care of my father."

After Bai Xiaofeng left, Qin Ruhuan sat by the bed, gently held her father's hand, and said softly: "Father, you must get better soon..."

After several days of careful care, Zuo Xiang finally woke up on the third day after the assassination!

Qin Ruhuan had been standing by the bed, staring at her father intently. When she saw her father's eyes, which had been closed for many days, slowly open, she burst into tears of joy, and her tears rolled down like beads from a broken string.

"Dad, you're finally awake, you scared me to death!" She excitedly rushed to the bed and held her father's slightly pale hand tightly with both hands.

The left prime minister said weakly: "Huan'er, I made you worry! Father is fine!"

His voice was extremely weak, as if every word had exhausted all his strength, and his eyes were full of guilt and heartache for his daughter.

"Father, do you remember what the assassins look like, or any obvious features they have?" Qin Ruhuan asked patiently, her eyes full of eagerness and expectation, desperate to get even the slightest clue from her father.

The left prime minister shook his head helplessly, a look of pain and anger on his face, "They are all masked and they didn't say a word!"

After saying this, he sighed heavily and frowned, as if he was trying hard to recall the situation at that time, but he really couldn't provide any more useful information.

Qin Ruhuan gently tucked the corner of the quilt for her father and said softly, "Father, don't worry. It's important to take care of your health first. Your daughter will find a way to find the real culprit behind the scenes and avenge you."

At this time, Prince Jing Xiao Jingxuan and the Sixth Prince Xiao Yibai Xiaofeng hurried in. Prince Jing said with concern, "Lord Zuo Xiang, you are finally awake. I have been worried these days!"

"Lord Left Prime Minister, are you feeling better?" asked the Sixth Prince.

"I'm fine, thank you Sixth Prince and Your Highness for your concern!" said the Left Prime Minister weakly.

Bai Xiaofeng hurried forward to feel the pulse of Zuo Xiang, and said with a slightly relieved look, "Although the pulse of Zuo Xiang is weak, it is no longer a serious problem. As long as you take care of yourself, you will be able to recover as before."

Qin Ruhuan stood up and bowed to Prince Jing and the Sixth Prince, "Thank you, Your Majesty, and the Sixth Prince, for your concern!"

She turned to Bai Xiaofeng and expressed her gratitude: "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Bai. This time it's all thanks to you!"

After exchanging a few more pleasantries and asking the left prime minister to have a good rest, they left the room.

In the following days, Qin Ruhuan took care of her father while secretly investigating clues about the assassin.

However, the matter seemed to be shrouded in mystery, and she had no clue. Just when she was feeling overwhelmed, a servant in the mansion provided an important clue.

It turned out that on the day when Zuo Xiang was stabbed, a suspicious man was wandering around the prime minister's residence.

Qin Ruhuan decided to pursue this clue herself. She took her trusted followers with her and asked around.

After some twists and turns, the suspicious person was finally found in a remote alley.

Qin Ruhuan sent elite men from Qianxun Pavilion to track down the suspected assassin. After a difficult pursuit, they finally succeeded in capturing him.

Then, she handed the assassin over to Dali Temple Minister Lu Haifeng without hesitation.

After Lu Haifeng took over, he immediately interrogated the assassin.
