Feng Qingmo was unable to tell if Chu Yixuan was handing Qi Yu over to him out of sincerity or just because of some kind of strategy. No matter what, he did not agree to take Qi Yu over.

She was not a commodity, not something that anyone could switch hands with just because they wanted to. It was up to her to decide whether to leave or stay.

However, he believed that Prince Xin’s Mansion would make a move against the Prince Qi Palace.

He also believed that the person who tried to assassinate him in the dense forest last time was not sent by Chu Yixuan.

However, Chu Yixuan's next sentence shocked Feng Qingmo as well. Chu Yixuan then said, "If Duke Xin dares to make such a huge move, then there must be someone behind him who is giving him some advice and advice. So, what I am worried about is not this second royal brother of mine, but the person behind him. "

"Could it be, you think that the person behind the Xin Wang is the Crown’s Master?"

he asked in astonishment. Even though he was investigating the relationship between Xu Chang and the Prince Qi Palace, he had never paid attention to whether or not there was some collusion between Xu Chang and the Prince Xin’s Mansion. After all, the king of letters had always been lustful and lustful, his reputation was never good, and he was never liked by the emperor. Instead, he was less eye-catching than the crippled Prince Qi.

If Xu Chang's purpose of leaving the Intermediate Prince was only to torture and take revenge on Emperor Chu Zhe, and not to sincerely support and assist the Prince Qi, then it would not be impossible to help the Xin King to deal with the Prince Qi after he toppled the Eastern Palace!

Feng Qingmo was a little apprehensive, those who were neglected were usually the most terrifying people. No wonder Chu Yixuan was worried about his situation.

Therefore, Feng Qingmo decided to participate in this competition for power. Not to fight for anything, just to protect some people.

So, Feng Qingmo made a suggestion, he was secretly protecting Chu Yizhao, so as to not let Chu Yiyun use this method to kill others, if he could persuade Chu Yizhao to help Chu Yixuan deal with Chu Yiyun later, it would be for the best!

At the same time, let Bi Su monitor Xu Chang's every move, and do his best to pry and grasp plans that would be detrimental to the Prince Qi's residence.

Chu Yixuan asked why he wanted to do this, and Feng Qingmo said indifferently: "No reason, I'm just idling around."

He threw the Agarwood Box back to Chu Yixuan and said, "Regarding the matter of taking care of your wife, you should do it yourself!"

If he let Xu Rouzhi suffer grievances for two years in the Prince Qi Palace just for the sake of showing it to the Eastern Palace and protecting himself, then he hoped that Chu Yixuan would treat him better in the future.

Since he was concerned about her life and death pain, why must he pretend to be cold and heartless towards her?

Chu Yizhao's group headed towards the relegated lands at the fastest speed possible.

Along the way, Chu Yizhao remained silent and did not say a word, his brows knitted tightly. The Crown Princess who was sitting opposite to him silently looked at Chu Yizhao. finally stopped eating and was not in the mood to eat. Since he could not persuade his, he could only turn to the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess sat next to Chu Yizhao silently and asked softly, "Is Your Highness worrying about the dangers ahead?"

Chu Yizhao glanced at the princess consort and shook his head.

"Then is Your Highness worried about the safety of the Ji City?"

Chu Yizhao frowned, he gritted his teeth and remained silent.

The princess consort gently held Chu Yizhao's hand, "All these years, Your Highness has helped His Majesty manage the lands and lands of the world. You have done a lot of hard work and hard work, so now that you have left, it is normal for me to worry about you. If His Highness really cannot let it go, why don't we stop for a while? Maybe His Majesty will change his mind and annul the punishment for His Highness. "

Chu Yizhao laughed coldly: "Withdraw punishment? How is that possible? If he had a shred of mercy for me, he would not have sent me to that wasteland! "

"Wasn't the orders of His Majesty also forced by the circumstances? I think that His Majesty did not intend to give His Highness such a heavy punishment. "

"But Sanlang still succeeded in the end! That cripple, no — he was only pretending to be lame! After plotting for so many years, he finally succeeded! Right now, he only wants me to die quickly, so how can you give me the chance to return to the Ji City! "

"Does Your Highness really think that those assassins in the forest belong to the Prince Qi?"

Chu Yizhao couldn't help but frown upon hearing the princess' words. "What do you mean?"

The Crown Princess laughed and said, "I just don't think that the Prince Qi is that stupid. He would kill us all the moment we left the city. He has yet to enter the Eastern Palace. If he acted rashly and was discovered by the Emperor, how would he be able to enter the Eastern Palace? "

"Also," The Crown Princess paused for a moment before continuing, "The assassin claiming to be from the Prince Qi Palace that day was clearly a big suspicion. No matter how fearless the Prince Qi is, it is impossible for him to reveal his identity to us, right? If their assassination failed, wouldn't their identity be exposed? "

"So you're saying," Chu Yizhao frowned, "that those assassins want to frame Sanlang?"

"I think so." The Crown Princess said softly, "Your Highness, think about it. Although the four royal brothers don't receive much attention from His Majesty, it doesn't mean that they won't covet the royal authority in their hearts. Now that His Highness has left, I am afraid that there will be people who will jump out to compete for the position of the crown prince with the Prince Qi, so, getting rid of the Prince Qi is their most important goal. "

Chu Yizhao looked at the princess consort in surprise, "Your analysis makes some sense. Since you have that kind of insight, why have you never mentioned anything to me before?"

The Crown Princess lowered her head and said, "Your highness is working for the kingdom. I don't have the time to talk to you."

"No." Chu Yizhao shook his head, took the princess consort's hand and sighed, "Actually you've also told me before to treat my three brothers as equals, but unfortunately, I can't understand your intentions … If I had taken your suggestion seriously, perhaps I wouldn't have ended up like this today! No, it might not be too late now. Crown’s Master is still in Ji City, he will definitely think of a way to help me out of this predicament … "

"The Crown’s Master won't come!" A deep voice sounded from behind him.

Chu Yizhao was shocked, and immediately pulled the princess consort to her feet. Zhan Cao immediately unsheathed his sword and stood in front of Chu Yizhao and his wife, and asked in a stern voice, "Who is it?"

Feng Qingmo appeared in front of them dressed in green, shook the snow dust off his body, and said indifferently: "Imperial Guard Zhan, with your alertness, if an assassin comes, I'm afraid you won't be able to protect the crown prince's safety."

Zhan Cao was startled, and immediately recognized Feng Qingmo's voice, and said in surprise: "You are …"

Feng Qingmo waved his hand. Zhan Cao was taken aback, but the Crown Princess stepped forward and bowed, "Are you the benefactor who saved us that day in the forest?"

When Chu Yizhao heard it, he could not help but be stunned. That day, in the dense forest, all of his attention was on the assassins, so he did not notice Feng Qingmo.

Feng Qingmo laughed, returned the greeting and said: "Crown Princess's eyesight is truly good!"

The Crown Princess held onto Chu Yizhao and said softly, "Your Highness, that day in the dense forest, it was all thanks to this benefactor who saved us. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to stand here safely."

Feng Qingmo said: "That may not be so. Their goal may not be for the crown prince to die. "

Chu Yizhao frowned, and looked at Feng Qingmo in alarm: "Who are you? What do you know? "

Feng Qingmo said calmly: "I might know things that I should or should not know. I wonder what the crown prince would like to hear? "

Chu Yizhao frowned: "Earlier, you said that Crown’s Master would not come, what do you mean by that?"

Feng Qingmo laughed, "The Crown’s Master was the one who helped the Crown Prince down, why would he come to save the Crown Prince?"

"What did you say?" Chu Yizhao opened his eyes wide in shock, "You … What did you say? "

The Crown Princess and Zhan Cao also looked at Feng Qingmo in shock, "What does benefactor mean?"

Feng Qingmo said: "Didn't you think about it, Crown Prince? Why did you know that there are tunnels leading everywhere under the Prince Qi Palace, but that Prince Qi was not punished in the end? Why is it that before that, the Eastern Palace always held the upper hand, but after that, the Prince Qi Palace started to reverse direction, and in the end, forced the crown prince to jump walls in desperation, and had no choice but to take action against the Prince Qi? "

"You …" Chu Yizhao's face turned cold, "What did you say?"

"Oh, I shouldn't describe the Crown Prince as desperate. However, hadn't the Crown Prince thought that things were getting weirder and weirder? Why is it that Cheng Feng's failure, and even Cheng Feng's death, is related to the Crown’s Master? "

The princess consort looked at Chu Yizhao in shock, and Chu Yizhao said with a stern face: "Continue speaking!"

Feng Qingmo said: "Actually that is all because the Crown’s Master is in his own right, and is in his own right. He is openly helping the crown prince, but in reality, he is helping the Prince Qi to cover for him, and using the crown prince's trust in the Crown’s Master, he revealed the various plans of the Eastern Palace to the Prince Qi, and spread the false news for the Prince Qi to the Eastern Palace.

Feng Qingmo's words were shocking! The Crown Princess and Zhan Cao were both shocked, even Chu Yizhao was startled!

However, Chu Yizhao concealed the shock in his heart and coldly said: "You think that you can spout nonsense just because you saved me once? No one can break away from my relationship with the Crown’s Master! "

Feng Qingmo said: "Prince Qi has also asked the crown prince, has he thought deeply about the reason for failure? Could it be that the crown prince has never thought about it?"

Mentioning Chu Yixuan's words, Chu Yizhao's heart trembled.

Chu Yizhao's eyes were brimming with even more anger, "Only by aiding me can Crown’s Master have a bright future, how can he be so foolish as to go against the heavens?"

The Crown Princess hurriedly added, "That's right, benefactor. If this Crown’s Master wants to betray me, what are his intentions?"

"Because," Feng Qingmo sighed, "Because he wanted to take revenge on the Emperor!"

Chu Yizhao and the princess consort could not help but be taken aback. "What do you mean?"

— —

The third day after Bi Su and Feng Qingmo left. Qi Yu had already had two days of chaotic days of eating, sleeping, and eating. She really couldn't take it anymore and decided to think of a way to escape the Duke Palace.

She's not a pig, she can't be raised that way, no.

It was only the third day, but the number of guards in the Safe House had decreased by a lot. There were only two guards guarding the Safe House gate.

It was an opportunity to leave!

She pushed Warm Xiang out of the way and attracted the attention of the guards as she took the opportunity to climb out the window, wanting to escape from Safe House.

Well, luckily, no one seems to have noticed her leaving.

Qi Yu climbed up the tree happily. As long as she climbed over the wall and went to the Eight Treasures Pavilion, she would be able to leave the Prince Qi Palace through the tunnel.

However, a hand grabbed her from behind and a deep voice said, "Where is the princess going?"

Holy shit, it's Chu Yixuan again!

Why was he so focused? When she didn't move, he would disappear. When she did, he would immediately appear in front of her?

Qi Yu helplessly turned her head around: "Shall we go to the bird nest together?"

"Where did the bird's nest come from on such a cold day?" Chu Yixuan frowned, his face pale.

Qi Yu was startled, she wanted to ask what happened to Chu Yixuan, but just when her face looked bad, Chu Yixuan carried her and landed on the ground.

Qi Yu landed on the ground. Her legs felt unbalanced, and she immediately threw herself into Chu Yixuan's embrace. Of course, Chu Yixuan reached out and wrapped his arms around her.

If it was any other time, Chu Yixuan would have easily stabilized her, but this time, he was knocked to the ground by Qi Yu. Caught off guard, Qi Yu threw herself onto Chu Yixuan's body, and Qi Yu's lips landed firmly on Chu Yixuan's lips.

Uh, would something like this happen to her?

Qi Yu's face flushed red, she quickly crawled up from Chu Yixuan's body. "I didn't do it on purpose! Don't think that I want to take advantage of you! "

— What did she think, anyway, that he would say he was taking advantage of him?

If it was any other time, Chu Yixuan would probably tease her, but at this time, Chu Yixuan seemed to frown in pain. He wanted to sit up, but he seemed to be unable to hold on and fell down.

Qi Yu was startled, "What happened to you, Chu Yixuan?"
