Double Life: The Sickly Prince Eavesdrops on My Heart

At the same time, a letter from Kyoto was presented to Xiao Jingxuan.

The letter was from Dali Temple Minister Lu Haifeng, and Xiao Jingxuan opened it hastily with a heavy heart.

In the letter, Lu Haifeng's tone was full of anxiety and worry. He wrote: "Recently, the emperor is seriously ill and the situation is extremely critical! The fight between the second and third princes for the throne is like a raging fire, burning more and more fiercely."

"In order to seek a better future, the officials in the court have chosen their own teams and formed factions. Now, the party struggle has entered a white-hot stage, and the situation is extremely urgent!"

"The Third Prince's followers were so bold that they surrounded the Emperor's bedroom, trying to control the Emperor's actions. The Second Prince was not to be outdone, and quickly led his trusted men to surround the outside of the palace and confronted the Third Prince's men."

"The two groups are on the verge of a war, the atmosphere is extremely tense, and the war is imminent! The people of Kyoto are in a state of panic, and the common people are in a state of anxiety. I hope you can return quickly to resolve this crisis!"

After reading the entire letter, Xiao Jingxuan deeply felt Lu Haifeng's anxiety and worry about the current situation.

The content of the letter was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing waves.

It seems that the situation in North Korea is tense and war is imminent.

Xiao Jingxuan frowned, knowing that this matter was of no trivial importance.

He and Qin Ruhuan looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.

Xiao Jingxuan paced back and forth, thinking about how to deal with it. At this time, dark clouds gradually gathered in the sky, as if foreshadowing the coming storm.

Xiao Jingxuan stopped and said with a firm look in his eyes: "We can't just sit there and do nothing. We must rush back to Kyoto as soon as possible to stabilize the situation."

Qin Ruhuan nodded slightly, she knew very well that Xiao Jingxuan had a heavy responsibility.

"Your Highness, I will go back with you and we will fight side by side. I am no longer the delicate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion! Leave Dabao and Xiaohua with Master first, and we will come to pick them up when the situation stabilizes!" Qin Ruhuan said seriously.

Xiao Jingxuan nodded slightly, "Princess, you are really thoughtful! I'll do as you say!"

Qin Ruhuan said worriedly: "Going to Kyoto this time will definitely be full of dangers, you must be extra careful."

Xiao Jingxuan held Qin Ruhuan's hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, I will handle it carefully. When the situation stabilizes, we can live a stable life again."

Qin Ruhuan quickly bid farewell to her master and mistress, leaving Dabao and Xiaohua here! Chunhua and Qiuyue also stayed to take care of the two babies!

So they quickly gathered their men and prepared to embark on the journey back to Kyoto.

Along the way, they traveled non-stop, concerned about the situation in Kyoto.

At this time in Kyoto, the confrontation between the two groups was still at a stalemate. Everyone's nerves were on edge, waiting for a fuse that would trigger a brutal war.

The second prince looked gloomy, and said to the counselor beside him: "How dare the third prince be so bold as to besiege my father's bedroom? Does he think he can seize the throne this way? Humph, I have worked hard over the years and have many supporters in the court. He is courting his own death."

The counselor responded cautiously: "Your Highness, you must not act rashly at this time. You must wait for the right time. Although the Third Prince's actions this time are radical, he has also won over many powerful officials in the court, and he has many followers. Those who curry favor with the powerful have all turned to the Third Prince for glory and wealth."

"The Third Prince has a group of military commanders under his command, all of whom are brave and good at fighting, and are loyal to him. There are also those strategists who are good at scheming, giving him advice and making every move carefully. They should not be underestimated. Moreover, the Emperor is seriously ill now, and the battle for the throne has reached a critical moment. If there is any mistake, everything will be lost."

The third prince was outside the palace, feeling very proud and said to his subordinates, "In a few days, this world will be mine. The second prince is just a defeated general of mine, and I have already seen through his methods. This time I will take the initiative and besiege the palace. As long as I can control my father and then eliminate the second prince in the name of serving the king, the throne will be as easy as taking something from a bag."

The subordinates flattered: "Your Highness is wise and will surely accomplish great things."

The entire Kyoto was shrouded in this tense atmosphere, and the people were in panic, not knowing what their future would be.

Xiao Jingxuan and his companions galloped all the way without stopping. The wind whistled in their ears, and they had only one thought in their minds - to reach Kyoto as soon as possible.

Finally, in the evening of the second day, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the ancient city walls of Kyoto, and they arrived at their destination.

The crowd didn't even bother to go back home to rest and ran straight to the palace.

When the soldiers guarding the city saw that it was King Jing, they knew his reputation and dared not stop him.

Xiao Jingxuan, along with more than a hundred secret guards, rushed straight to the hall like a gust of wind.

They moved quickly and arrived at the door of the hall in a moment.

The Second Prince had been anxiously waiting outside the palace. When he saw Xiao Jingxuan coming, he hurried forward and said anxiously, "Your Highness, you are finally here! In this situation, I really don't know what to do. The Third Prince's bandits have besieged my father's bedroom. If we don't take action, I'm afraid the consequences will be disastrous. Your Highness, you are resourceful and must find a way to resolve this crisis."

Xiao Jingxuan had a stern expression on his face, and without saying a word, he led his men straight to the emperor's bedroom!

The door to the bedroom was filled with the Third Prince's men, surrounding it in three layers inside and outside!

Xiao Jingxuan came straight to the door, holding the big knife, his eyes were so cold that it made people tremble, "Get out of the way!"

The guards at the gate shuddered, "Prince Jing!"

"I dare not. I am only following the orders of the Third Prince. I dare not let the prince in without permission!" The gatekeeper was trembling with fear.

Xiao Jingxuan glanced at him and roared, "Get out of the way!"

The gatekeepers retreated in fear, "My Lord! I dare not..."

Qin Ruhuan stepped forward, "My Lord, let me do it!"

After saying this, she gathered her energy into her Dantian, flipped her hands up and down, and suddenly a powerful burst of true energy surged!

Then he pushed outward with both hands, and all the guards in front of the bedroom door flew out!

Then they all fell heavily to the ground, screaming in agony!

The other guards immediately drew their swords and swung them over!

The two groups immediately started fighting each other. Xiao Jingxuan and Qin Ruhuan fought with swords while walking towards the bedroom!

Xiao Jingxuan's face was as cold as frost, his lips were tightly pursed, and without saying a word, he led the people behind him and rushed straight to the emperor's bedroom at lightning speed.

In front of the palace door, there was a huge crowd of the Third Prince's men, surrounding it in three layers, like an iron wall.

Xiao Jingxuan walked straight to the door, clenched the big knife in his hand, and his cold eyes seemed to be able to freeze people instantly, making people shudder.

He shouted, "Get out of the way!"

The guards at the gate were frightened by the momentum and couldn't help but shudder. They said in a trembling voice, "Prince Jing!" "I dare not. I am only guarding here under the order of the Third Prince. I dare not let the prince in without permission!"
