"What great protection!" At the same time, Xiao Hanqi taunted her, and her voice dropped.

It was precisely because Tutor Jin was too selfish, that he was like a fence-sitter, falling along with the wind!

"Right now, I don't need you to do anything. There's only one thing I need you to remember."

As Xiao Hanqi's voice fell, a cold wind blew past. When Tutor Jin raised his eyes again, where was Xiao Hanqi's figure?

He lit the candle again and exhaled a few deep breaths as he held his chest.

He only hoped that everything would go smoothly and he would be able to save Qiao Er as soon as possible.

When the Prime Minister Wei heard Xiao Hanqi's words, he had a nagging feeling that something was off.

He had spent a lot of time and effort to rope in the Tutor Jin and even brought Jin Qiao’er away from the Shadow Myrtle Temple, but he did not allow the Tutor Jin to do anything.

After going to the Tzu Ning Palace and meeting Wei Qing, the father and daughter pair had a good discussion.

"Father, although I don't fully understand Long Xiaotian, I am certain of one thing, that is, you absolutely cannot use a normal person's way of thinking to guess Long Xiaotian's thoughts."

It was as if she thought that she had the same effect as the subGu in Xiao Qingqian's body. However, he was able to control the subGu in Xiao Qingqian's body remotely to temporarily numb his consciousness.

As for what use the subGu in her body had, she still did not know.

The Prime Minister Wei nodded, "I won't allow Tutor Jin to do anything even though I've roped him in. This is a little strange."

Wei Qing frowned and muttered to herself for a moment, "Father, the generals that royal father summoned previously, you ordered your men to keep a close eye on them. Also, send someone to the borders and have Big Brother dispatch some troops over to the capital. It would be best if he could disguise himself as a merchant and a woodcutter.

The Prime Minister Wei was a cunning and scheming person. Wei Qing had only said a few words, and he had already guessed what Wei Qing was worried about.

"Qing`er, you can rest assured!"

"One more thing. Tell Big Brother to find someone to tie up some scarecrows and put on the clothes of the northern soldiers."

This action was to guard against Long Xiaotian taking advantage of the lack of manpower to harass the border.

Prime Minister Wei was surprised, he scratched Wei Qing's nose with all his might, "You stinking girl, you're really clever!"

Wei Qing laughed while blushing.

Ever since Xiao Qingqian had sneaked into the secret room last time, she had not heard from him for a long time, and she was not sure what he was doing either.

"Prince Chu asked me to send you a message." Prime Minister Wei looked left and right, then said softly: "Everything is under control."

Wei Qing nodded, "Father, you should go back first."

When Prime Minister Wei just returned to the Prime Minister's Estate, the butler reported that Tutor Jin had already been waiting for a while.

"Tutor Jin, why did you come here again?" Prime Minister Wei frowned.

"It's going to be dark soon. If the Crown Prince comes again, how do I deal with him?"

Prime Minister Wei shook his head helplessly.

If all of this was a trap set up by Xiao Hanqi, then Xiao Hanqi would definitely know about whatever major incident had happened in the palace.

"Tutor Jin, just tell the truth."

"What do you mean?"

"The crown prince did not tell you what to do. In that case, it could be a test, it could be …"

Tutor Jin frowned, his heart becoming anxious, "What else can it be?"

"The crown prince is a student you've taught him, but you can't figure out what he's thinking?" The Prime Minister Wei shook his head again.

"Prime Minister Wei, Qiao Er is currently in the hands of the crown prince. If the crown prince really activates the palace's transformation, then Qiao Er will be implicated!"

"The empress dowager already knows about this matter. No matter what happens, as long as Tutor Jin's heart is loyal to the Northern Kingdom and to the Emperor, what are you worried about?"

These words caused Tutor Jin to be speechless. He rolled his eyes and panted, "Alright, then tell me the truth."

Just as he was about to leave in a huff, Prime Minister Wei called for him once again, "Tutor Jin, truths and falsehood are the best."

Tutor Jin stopped and turned to look at him, "Got it."

Just as he was worried, another figure flashed into the Supreme Fu Mansion after nightfall.

The Tutor Jin spoke the truth as he had discussed with the Prime Minister Wei before. After he finished, the person left.

After Xiao Hanqi heard what the Tutor Jin said, he believed that the Tutor Jin was not playing with him.

"Crown Prince, you shouldn't trust Tutor Jin so early. You should observe for a few more days." Long Xiaotian picked up the teacup and gulped down the tea gracefully.

"It's almost done. When can we move?"

"Crown Prince, don't be too hasty!"

There were still a few military generals in this group who were waiting and watching. He would not act rashly without a hundred percent certainty that he would be able to win.

Along with the flow of time, Wei Qing's calm heart became increasingly restless and sleepless. Every day, she would prick up her ears and listen for any movements outside the secret room.

What exactly was Xiao Hanqi waiting for?

Why didn't you make a move?

On the contrary, Old Emperor's complexion became better and better. He looked at Wei Qing who was holding onto the book and asked: "Wei Qing, are you reading?"

Wei Qing suddenly retracted her mind, and looked at the reverse tally in her hand, and blushed as her mouth twitched.

"Don't worry, there's me in the palace and Ah Qian outside of the palace, everything is under control."

Wei Qing wanted to talk about this with Old Emperor, but Old Emperor gave the excuse that he was tired and closed his eyes.

Seeing the relaxed face of Old Emperor, Wei Qing vexedly spat out a mouthful of impure air.

When night fell, the Nanny Qiu brought the latest news from the Prime Minister Wei. Wei Jingnan had already brought his soldiers to the capital and was waiting outside the city for Xiao Hanqi to take action.

Wei Qing's uneasy heart finally relaxed a little.

The tired Old Emperor suddenly opened his eyes, and looked at Wei Qing with a profound gaze, "Wei Qing, how about you play a game with us?"

Wei Qing was surprised, but immediately nodded.

As the two fought on the chess board, the Old Emperor suddenly opened his mouth, "Don't think that I'm the ruler of a country, so you deliberately let me go."

Wei Qing curled the corner of her mouth stiffly, "Royal father is truly a wise man, my chess skills are indeed not good."

"Don't be modest." The Old Emperor said, and a hand fell.

Wei Qing stared at the chess board seriously, and tried to figure out how to take the next step.

At this moment, the sound of drums could be heard from outside the secret room.

Old Emperor and Wei Qing looked at each other, and their hearts simultaneously thumped.

Xiao Hanqi made his move!

Outside of Tzu Ning Palace, Xiao Hanqi's eyes were cold, holding onto his sharp sword, "Royal Grandmother, royal father had been in a coma for so long, yet you dominated the imperial power, and even joined with a group of court officials to deliberately frame my grandson.

When the empress dowager went to bed these few days, she would sleep in the same clothes. When she saw the fire raging outside, she quickly asked Nanny Qiu to help her up.

The heavy door of the palace slowly opened. The empress dowager was like a pine tree in the wind, staring coldly at Xiao Hanqi who was riding a horse.
