Next, Xiao Zhonghua asked Su Mo about Thousand Mountains Island.

When the Su family army returned from sailing in February, they had already brought back the battle situation on Thousand Mountains Island.

It was written by Su Mo himself. He explained the Xiahou family’s ambitions and deployments to the various countries, including their collusion with the former King of the Southern Wilderness, Zongzheng Ming.

Actually, Xiahou Qing was also involved in controlling the royal families of the various countries.

However, since it concerned Ling Yun, Su Mo pinned all the blame on Xiahou Yi.

Xiahou Yi was not innocent. Xiahou Zheng and Xiahou Yan were his people. To be honest, he was indeed the mastermind behind everything.

“He even killed the previous City Lord, Xiahou Qing, and Xiahou Yunlin almost couldn’t become the City Lord.”

He deliberately emphasized this sentence to completely clear the relationship between Ling Yun and Xiahou Yi.

Xiao Zhonghua asked suspiciously, “Why is the Xiahou family so ambitious?”

The expressions of the three of them remained unchanged.

Xiao Zhonghua was not like Xiao Duye, who could be easily fooled with a few words.

However, no matter how smart he was, could he be smarter than the think tanks of the Qin, Wei, and Su families?

Back in the Hundred Flowers Palace, Wei Ting, Wei Qing, Su Xuan, and Su Xiaoxiao had already thought of what to say.

As the saying went, one had to be wary of others, even though Xiao Zhonghua was a trustworthy ally and the next emperor they had personally elected.

However, an emperor was an emperor. The descendants of Emperor Wu were the truth that they could never know Xiao Zhonghua.

Su Mo said, “Speaking of which, Zongzheng Ming bewitched Xiahou Yi.”

“Oh?”

Xiao Zhonghua looked at Su Mo.

Su Mo said, “Zongzheng Ming once went to Thousand Mountains Island and secretly met Xiahou Yi. He told him about the fertility of the Central Plains and hoped to use Xiahou Yi’s Thousand Mountains Island to flatten the countries for him. At that time, he would be willing to split the world with Xiahou Yi.”

Xiao Zhonghua was silent.

After a while, he asked, “Is Thousand Mountains Island really so powerful?”

Su Mo said seriously, “Thousand Mountains Island is filled with experts. General Wei and Wei Ting were seriously injured on the island and almost died.”

Although it was a little exaggerated, it was true that the two of them were injured.

He was not afraid that Xiao Zhonghua would send an imperial physician to visit the Wei family. He also believed that Xiao Zhonghua would not do that.

Xiao Zhonghua nodded and took a deep breath. “I suddenly regret letting you go. Thousand Mountains Island is a land of tigers and wolves. If anything happened to you, how can I explain it to the people of the world?”

Su Mo cupped his hands and said, “Fortunately, I didn’t disappoint you.”

Xiao Zhonghua patted Su Mo’s shoulder and looked at Su Xuan. He said to the Old Marquis and Su Mo, “I have something to say to Su Xuan alone. Can you please leave first?”

The Old Marquis brought Su Mo out of the palace.

The two of them waited in the carriage for half an hour before Su Xuan came out.

He calmly got into the carriage.

Su Mo asked, “What did the Crown Prince say to you?”

Su Xuan said, “Nothing.”

Su Mo did not believe him.

The Old Marquis did not believe it either.

Su Xuan smiled helplessly. “It was really nothing.”

Su Mo used his eldest brother’s pressure. “Then why did you stay inside for so long?”

Su Xuan rolled up his sleeves and said calmly, “We only fought.”

Su Mo was speechless.

–

The small garden of the Hall of Supreme Harmony was in chaos.

The reason was that Xiao Zhonghua was injured.

He sat on the lawn and the corners of his mouth were bruised.

Changping shouted, “Call the Imperial Physician! Call the Imperial Physician!”

“Cousin.”

Jing Yi came over.

Changping hurriedly bowed. “Young Marquis!”

Jing Yi tilted his head and looked at Xiao Zhonghua, who had a pained expression.

This action made Changping feel a little familiar. Where… had he seen anyone else do it?

“Cousin, were you beaten up?”

As Jing Yi asked, he walked over and extended his hand to Xiao Zhonghua.

Xiao Zhonghua grabbed his hand and stood up. He said angrily, “No.”

“Oh.” Jing Yi thought for a moment. “Were you beaten up by a group?”

Xiao Zhonghua was speechless.

The palace servants held back their laughter and lowered their heads, not daring to breathe loudly.

Only the Young Marquis could tease the Crown Prince like this.

Xiao Zhonghua said calmly, “You guys retreat!”

He glanced at Changping. “You can leave too.”

“Yes.”

Changping agreed gloomily. As soon as the Young Marquis returned, he fell out of favor!

There was no one else in the small garden. Xiao Zhonghua finally held his aching waist and sat down on the stone stool.

Jing Yi followed over and hit the nail on the head. “I saw the Su family’s carriage at the entrance of the palace just now. Don’t tell me you wanted to beat Su Xuan up, but you were taught a lesson by him?”

Xiao Zhonghua glared at him coldly. “Aren’t you afraid of death after going out?”

Jing Yi said seriously, “You can’t beat me.”

Xiao Zhonghua endured another day of internal injuries from anger.

“Why did you beat Su Xuan up?”

“He kidnapped my biological sister. Shouldn’t I beat him up?”

“Were you trying to test his martial arts?”

Jing Yi was just innocent, not stupid.

It would have been fine if he hadn’t mentioned this. Xiao Zhonghua was furious.

He did have the intention to test Su Xuan today, but it was true that he wanted to teach Su Xuan a lesson.

However, he did not expect Su Xuan to be so honest. If he told him not to hold back, he would really dare to be ruthless.

If he fussed about it, it would seem like he could not afford it.

If he didn’t mind, he would feel a little aggrieved.

Xiao Zhonghua asked suspiciously, “Su Xuan is just a scholar. Where did he get such high martial arts?”

Baby Jing said without changing her expression, “Wei Ting is the top scholar. Didn’t he also go into battle to kill enemies? Even his servant is capable of a couple of moves.”

Xiao Zhonghua looked at him deeply. “Is that really the case?”

“Yes!”

Baby Jing nodded.

He had to memorize the lines she taught well!

Xiao Zhonghua didn’t continue this topic and asked Jing Yi, “Aren’t you going home?”

Jing Yi said nothing.

How could Xiao Zhonghua understand him?

Xiao Zhonghua snorted. “It’s useless to hide from me. You left a letter and follow Wei Ting out of the capital on your own. When Uncle comes later, I won’t help you!”

Speak of the devil.

The Marquis of Weiwu asked to see him.

Jing Yi looked at Xiao Zhonghua pleadingly.

Xiao Zhonghua ignored him.

Jing Yi stood up silently.

“What are you going to do?”

“Go find Auntie and tell her that when you were eight years old, you secretly played with her dragon and phoenix incense bracelet in a feces pit—”

Xiao Zhonghua’s body trembled!

“Crown Prince, your uncle is here!”

It was Consort Xian’s voice.

The siblings entered the small garden together.

Jing Yi looked at Consort Xian innocently. “Auntie…”

Xiao Zhonghua’s temples throbbed as he clenched his fists and said, “Mother and Uncle came at the right time. Cousin has returned from Thousand Mountain Island. He completed the mission I gave him very well.”

Consort Xian was enlightened. “So you sent Yi’er.”

The corners of Xiao Zhonghua’s mouth twitched. “Yes, it was very important. I hid it from Mother and Uncle. Please forgive me.”

The Marquis of Weiwu looked at his son.

Jing Yi cupped his fists and bowed to Xiao Zhonghua. He said extremely seriously, “Fortunately, I didn’t disappoint you.”

Xiao Zhonghua clenched his fists.

Damn Wei Ting, Jing Yi has been led as a little scoundrel by you!
