When Ninth Prince returned, he immediately went to Xiao Ting's residence. It seemed as if he was thinking of something, but at the same time, he seemed to be very conflicted. There wasn't the slightest bit of a smile on his face, and the indifferent expression he had in the past, had also disappeared.

He seemed to have encountered some trouble.

Xiao Chi stopped and waited for a long time, first to stand beside him, then to sit beside him. In the end, he directly squatted at Yun Che's feet, and from time to time, he would sway about in front of Yun Che's eyes. Ninth Prince still did not even look at him.

"Pa!"

she asked angrily, slapping the table and standing up.

"I'm talking to you, can you give me a bit of a reaction?"

Ninth Prince finally shifted his gaze onto her body and looked at her from top to bottom. He did not seem to understand why she was behaving this way.

Xiao Ting was very frustrated. She had spoke for a long time, but it was not that she was ignored, it was just that she did not listen to him at all.

"Are you listening to me at all?"

Xiao Ting asked again, her voice was loud, even the servants in the courtyard could hear him.

The Hong Shao waved for everyone to retreat, while she stood guard outside.

In main house, Ninth Prince pointed his finger on the table. Xiao Ting took a glance at it, and then unwillingly poured Ninth Prince another cup of tea.

He even mumbled, "Drink, drink, you only know how to drink, I'm still thirsty, it's best if I drink water and choke you to death."

Unfortunately, the heavens did not hear her mutter, so Ninth Prince smoothly finished the cup of tea.

The Ninth Prince told Xiao Ting that the Imperial Consort Xiao did indeed want to escape from the Imperial Palace, so the Emperor sent her into a cold palace and only acted according to the rules.

Ninth Prince did not mention anything else, he only spoke of this fact.

"Then Aunt won't die? Would anyone bully her? "

The Ninth Prince explained, "Although the Imperial Consort Xiao was beaten into the cold palace, the title of the is still there.

The Imperial Consort Xiao had already been beaten into a corner, why would the Emperor want her life?

Moreover, she would no longer be a threat to other women, so nothing would happen to her.

"So the Cold Palace is a good place."

Xiao Ting's mind raced, and suddenly she asked again.

"Then where did the woman who was beaten into the cold palace go?"

Ninth Prince was slightly stunned.

How could he know? Besides, was there any other woman in the palace who had been beaten into a cold palace? Probably, but that was never his concern.

"They're all dead, right? I've seen it before, there's a grand palace near the Yao Chi Palace. The place is huge, but there are rabbits lurking inside, overgrown. Xiao Ting spoke as if she was telling a story.

"I believe that in the past, it must have been a palace concubine who lived here?"

Before Ninth Prince could understand what she was saying, Xiao Ting had already changed the topic.

"Then do you know why my aunt left the palace?"

Xiao Ting was very puzzled. She had too many suspicions in her heart, but unfortunately, she did not say anything else regarding the Ninth Prince.

He only told her that the map was of great importance, and luckily she had the Mind's Eye to keep it, which saved Imperial Consort Xiao's life.

When Xiao Ting heard Ninth Prince's reply, she finally relaxed. She knew that her aunt was really alright now.

It's just that I can't live a life of limitless splendor in the future, but this isn't bad either. There's nothing bad about being free and unfettered.

In his previous life, when Xiao Ting watched those ancient costume dramas, he felt that the women in the palace were very pitiful. In order to wait for a man, he wasted his entire youth, and now, the man that his aunt liked was already dead. Hmm, she couldn't leave the palace.

Of course, it would be even better if he could leave the palace.

It was a pity that in this time and space, she could not defeat a creature like the Emperor.

"In the future, you are not allowed to enter the palace without this king's company."

Ninth Prince suddenly issued an order. Although Xiao Ting heard it and was displeased, she still snorted and said: "That palace and I don't get along well, I still don't want to go."

"Where did you get that map?"

Ninth Prince suddenly asked.

Xiao Ting did not think too much and directly told the truth, recounting what had happened.

Ninth Prince listened silently for a long time. He was able to pick up such an important thing and change it in the end. Fortunately, he was able to return to the palace in the end.

"Do you remember what that woman looked like?"

Xiao Ting shook his head, "What are you trying to do? Since they didn't take the items away, you should let them go! "

"Besides, she's just a woman. Why should I care?"

Ninth Prince was startled, and decided not to discuss national affairs with Xiao Ting.

Now that the matters between Imperial Consort Xiao and her father had been resolved, Xiao Ting reverted back to her original appearance.

"Hong Shao, I is hungry, hurry up and prepare something for me to eat."

She shouted at the top of her voice and the Hong Shao outside quickly responded. Knowing that the sky had cleared after the rain, they quickly ran away.

Ninth Prince looked at the young girl sleeping soundly on the soft couch and felt that it was somewhat inconceivable.

How could there be such a heartless person in the world?

She didn't know. Had she just snatched a life from the hands of death? If he were to lie down and sleep like this, would he still be able to eat?

What was so important that it could make her depressed and have other negative emotions?

He didn't know why, but the Ninth Prince suddenly thought of himself. If the one who was in trouble today was him, would Xiao Ting do that in the great hall?

Fighting against the most respected people in the empire for him.

After that, he shook his head. No, no one dared to do that to him.

And Xiao Ting did not have any feelings for him at all.

Who would have thought that a dignified Ninth Prince like him would one day have a trace of extravagant hope in regards to feelings and feelings? And the object of his desire was so 'unusual', his imperial concubine.

Xiao Ting did not care what he was thinking, she just waited for the food to taste, but before the meal could even reach her mouth, she heard the butler ask him out, and that was that her father was here.

When Xiao Zhan saw Xiao Ting, he almost cried, "Good girl, it's good that you're fine, you scared father to death."

Xiao Ting unhappily patted her father's arm and consoled him, "Father, you cried the wrong person. The one who has problems is my aunt, not me."

"Your aunt, your aunt is fine, right?"

Xiao Ting questioned back, could it be that after he left the palace, there was some unforeseen event that occurred in the palace?

Xiao Ting blinked her eyes, and said: "I'm fine. What I mean is, I'm fine with your daughter, so what if you cry? It's not like I'm dead."

Xiao Zhan stared, "He is not dead right now, but if it weren't for Ninth Prince, you would have died a long time ago. I'll tell you this."

"Father, why are you speaking to outsiders? I am your daughter. " Xiao Ting was not satisfied, the two of them stood in the courtyard and started their debate.

"It's because you're my daughter that I have to tell you this. In the future, you have to tightly hold onto Ninth Prince's arm, okay? Father won't be able to protect you in the future. " Although the Xiao family was released, Xiao Zhan was stripped of his position and was now just a commoner.

"That's called hugging a leg, alright!" Xiao Ting corrected her father's words.

Ninth Prince, who was still an invisible person in the house, said, "When did the father and daughter learn to avoid people talking to each other?"

Shouldn't these words be said in private?

Miss Xiao Liu, do you know what it means to hug him tightly?

Sure enough, Xiao Ting despised his father once again.

"Father, are you old? Ninth Prince didn't save me, he was just watching for fun, you don't even know, in the hall, when my aunt was being bullied by those old women, I was pierced through by that kind Ninth Prince, did you know that? I can't even move. I just want to speak up for my aunt, not even a word.

"I see that there's something wrong with your eyes. You're still young, but your eyesight has already started to become blurry."

"What?" He touched your acupoints, as expected, you are not a good person. Father was wrong. "

Xiao Zhan said that the people who bullied his daughter were not good people.

With regards to Xiao Zhan's nonchalant attitude, the equally immoral Xiao Ting expressed her contempt for him.

"Dad, can you be a little more reliable?"

For the first time, Xiao Zhan stared at his daughter. He was just about to say something when he realized that it seemed to be the case. He was quite unreliable and many people had said the same thing before.

"That daughter, did Ninth Prince say she wanted to leave you?"

Xiao Zhan suddenly remembered the purpose of this trip.

Xiao Ting blinked her large eyes, thought for a while, and asked: "When did I say I wanted to leave him?"

"Will he?" With such a large fortune, how could he possibly be willing to give it to me? " He Li would have to pay the price.

"Then in the main hall, the empress dowager personally said that she'd annul your marriage."

Xiao Ting held his hand, and dragged him into the house, while the two ignored the main character of the conversation who was sitting still.

"Do you really believe that damned old granny's words? What's more, it's just like what the prince said. She'll be the one in charge of the marriage between the two of us." She's pretty much like you, with your old eyes and blurry vision, how could you see people clearly? "

Being scolded and looked down upon by his daughter, Xiao Zhan was not unhappy. In his opinion, the Ninth Prince was like a big tree, it would be great if he could stick close to her.

The more he looked at the two of them, the more unusual it seemed to be.

Just because the Ninth Prince spoke up for Xiao Ting.

In the past, the Ninth Prince did not care about anything. They did not say a single word for anyone in the imperial court, including the former Ninth Princess's parents, the Duke of An's Mansion.

But now, he had stood up against the empress dowager in front of everyone for Xiao Ting.

Xiao Zhan looked carefully at Xiao Ting, but realized that her daughter had not been enlightened at all.

Ninth Prince had to listen to their conversation even if he didn't want to, but something didn't seem right. When did these father and daughter learn to avoid suspicion?

[Is he really so lifeless?]

He coughed lightly to show his existence, and if he continued to listen, he didn't know what words would pop out of their mouths.

It instantly attracted two pairs of bright and lively eyes.

"What are you coughing about? Are you sick? "

Xiao Ting's brain circuits were never on the same level as the Ninth Prince's.

However, Xiao Zhan could tell that something was wrong and was about to greet the Ninth Prince.

At this time, a commotion arose from outside.

Xiao Ting leaned against the window and looked out, and actually saw the Xiao Family's girls outside.

"Dad, why did you bring them here?"
