The next morning, Shang Yiqing arrived at King Xuan's manor early in the morning.

"Princess Rong is here." Princess Xuan had just woken up when she heard the servant report in.

"What is she doing here?" A look of puzzlement flitted across Princess Xuan's face. She and Shang Yiqing had almost fallen out with each other when it came to Ying Ying. Although they were sister-in-law, they usually didn't have anything to do with each other. After some thought, he said, "Sure."

Shang Yiqing arrived at the great hall but before she could speak, she saw wangfei's cold smile as she asked, "I don't know if you would allow me to visit. What can I do for you?"

"I've come here today to look for Prince Xuan!" Shang Yiqing went straight to the point.

Princess Xuan glanced at her. "So Imperial Concubine Rong is looking for my prince. My prince hasn't woken up yet, so you can tell me if there's anything you want to tell me."

"It's useless to tell the wangfei about this, perhaps even wangfei Xuan doesn't know about this." On the way here, Shang Yiqing made up her mind that she would find King Xuan and confront him face to face.

"What don't I know?" Princess Xuan said arrogantly, "If you have something to say, then go ahead."

Shang Yiqing thought for a bit. Forget it, since she was already at Duke Xuan's mansion, there was no harm in telling Princess Xuan about this. No matter what, it was Prince Xuan who had done the right thing. Therefore, he said, "Yingying was taken away yesterday. I suspect that it was Duke Xuan who did this, so I wanted to ask Duke Xuan where he hid her."

"Princess Rao, you can eat whatever you want with the medicine, but you can't say whatever you want. You don't have any solid evidence, so why do you insist that it was my prince?"

"Everyone in the entire country knows that King Xuan has been plotting something against Ying Ying. If it wasn't for King Xuan, who else would it be? Quickly, ask King Xuan to come out and meet me." Shang Yiqing said impatiently. She was truly worried that King Xuan would take advantage of Ying Ying.

"My prince hasn't woken up yet, how could he be seen so easily?" She just couldn't let Shang Yiqing see King Xuan. Whether or not this matter had anything to do with King Xuan. As King Xuan's wife, she had the duty to protect her husband.

Shang Yiqing, who had been worried for Ying Ying's safety, was truly infuriated. Her expression changed as she said in a low voice, "If King Xuan does not come out to clarify, it will be difficult to explain it to everyone. The last time Prince Xuan proposed to her, Ying Ying had been captured. Why was this so strange? "Wangfei, you're also a smart person. If this matter gets out of hand, it won't do anyone any good!"

The color on wangfei's face changed slightly as her tone changed. "Princess Rao, are you threatening me?"

"I don't dare to threaten her. I'm just reminding her that if this matter gets out of hand, everyone will suspect that it's Duke Xuan's doing. If news of this spreads to the empress's ears, it'll be bad news for him!" Why was Princess Xuan trying to stop him? The more she was like this, the more Shang Yiqing was sure of her thoughts, and almost certainly, it was King Xuan who did it.

"I've just said that if Consort Rong has solid evidence, you can complain to the empress about it. If you want to slander my prince, I'll argue with you until the end!"

"Does this mean that Princess Xuan is determined not to let me meet King Xuan?" Shang Yiqing was so angry that her eyes were almost popping out of their sockets. Sometimes, it was just like this, even though she knew it was someone else's doing. However, she couldn't bring out any convincing evidence. Although she was still rebutting him, there was no evidence. From the beginning to the end, she was still not confident!

Princess Xuan laughed coldly, "I'm not denying that I didn't want you to see King Xuan. I told you just now that my prince is still resting and hasn't woken up yet."

"Princess Xuan, stop trying to defend King Xuan. He was the one who did this, and yet you're still defending him like this. Are you really that willing to let your husband like another woman?" Shang Yiqing was at a loss for words.

"Royal Concubine Rong, what you say isn't right. Although my prince is very amorous outside, he is very single-minded with me. Besides, it isn't a shameful thing for men to have three wives and four concubines. Who hasn't had three wives and four concubines in the imperial court?" It was clear from her attitude that she didn't want Shang Yiqing to meet King Xuan.

Then you are glad that King Xuan has other women outside?" Now that the Xiao Clan General Palace is not in the capital, King Xuan sent people to capture Ying Ying. When General Xiao returns, I want to see how you guys explain it to him. " I wonder what this woman is thinking? It was the same for all women in ancient times. They already knew that their husband was out there, but they still insisted on defending him. Right now, it was perfectly clear that King Xuan had captured Ying Ying. However, not only was wangfei unwilling to believe it, she was even trying to defend her. Was her brain flooded or something? The more Shang Yiqing thought about it, the more anxious she became. She had not seen Ying Ying for the entire night. If she did not find Ying Ying again, she was afraid that Ying Ying's reputation would be ruined. At this time, all the ladies of the Marquis were very pure. If they let King Xuan take advantage of their chastity, how could Ying Ying continue living with her dignity?

Princess Xuan's face darkened as she gave a cold snort, "Princess Rong, if it wasn't for the fact that we're sister-in-law, I would've chased you out of my house long ago. You have no evidence to slander my prince's innocence, do you think it's that easy to bully you?"

"Of course I don't mean that. However, Ying Ying's disappearance is indeed related to King Xuan. You should be clear about the importance of this matter!" Shang Yiqing's attitude changed again, "No matter what, I must meet King Xuan today!"

"This matter is not up to you!" Xuanwangfei also hated Shang Yiqing dearly and didn't want to bother with her at all. Even if King Xuan had captured Ying Ying, what did this have to do with her?

Shang Yiqing smiled coldly and took a few steps back, "Fine, if you don't want King Xuan to see me, I'll personally go look for him." As she spoke, she prepared to return to the estate to look for King Xuan.

When Princess Xuan saw this, she hastily called out, "Halt!"

"What happened? Are you afraid?" Shang Yiqing went against him.

"I am not guilty! What kind of place do you take the Duke Xuan Palace to be? If you want to come, you can come. If you want to leave, you can leave. And today, I won't let you meet King Xuan! " She didn't give in to Shang Yiqing's actions at all!

Shang Yiqing was so angry that her face turned pale, "I have nothing else to say to you, I want to find King Xuan to question him!" As she spoke, she disregarded everything else and began to walk towards the estate.

When Princess Xuan saw this, she hastily ordered her servant to block Shang Yiqing and shouted, "You're not allowed to be presumptuous in my residence!"

It looked like she wouldn't be able to see King Xuan today, not to mention that there were so many servants in the mansion. She alone wouldn't be able to see him. Shang Yiqing thought for a moment before nodding at wangfei, "Alright, if you won't let me meet King Xuan today, I'll go speak to the empress about it. Let's see if it's you guys who are in the wrong or me!"

"You can complain to the esteemed empress as much as you want. My prince is upright and is not afraid of insinuations. If you dare insult my prince again, I'll report you to the empress!" Princess Xuan was also furious. After Ying Ying's incident, she and Shang Yiqing had long since become enemies. They couldn't stand each other's lack of evidence, so why did she insist that it was King Xuan?

Shang Yiqing smiled coldly and nodded, "Good, very good! I'll go find the empress now! " He didn't stay any longer after that and left the manor, heading towards the palace.
