"When did Concubine Tian become unwell?" Wei Qing asked.

The maidservant stuttered, while Wei Qing was on her guard. Just as she was about to leave, a dull pain came from the back of her neck.

Wei Qing glared at him, her eyes filled with rage.

She really was tricked by Tian Sisi!

His body shook, but he did not fall down immediately.

The servant girl covered her mouth in shock. The guard standing behind Wei Qing tightened his grip on the wooden stick in his hand as he looked at Wei Qing, who was glaring at them furiously.

Just as the guard was about to make up for the loss, Wei Qing fell to the ground with a loud thud.

The maidservant hurriedly urged the guard, "You should be clear about what Concubine Tian said just now, right?"

The guard looked nervous. "Concubine Tian, are you really going to keep your promise?"

"Of course!" After the maidservant finished her sentence, she walked to Wei Qing's side. "Quick, take her away!"

The guard took a deep breath and carried Wei Qing on his shoulder. With the cover of the night, he rushed to a side room not too far away.

After the door was closed, the guard quickly explained to Wei Qing. He took off his clothes, and just as his hand was about to land on Wei Qing's belt, there was a moment of hesitation.

If he didn't owe a huge sum of money, he wouldn't have done such a wicked thing!

If he had really disgraced the innocence of the princess, then his little life would have been gone.

What should he do?

The guard scratched his head and paced around the room with a conflicted expression.

Dia'er had always been nervous. She kept pacing back and forth, feeling like she was living a long time.

It had been almost an hour and Eldest Miss still hadn't returned. Could it be that slut Tian was really plotting against Eldest Miss while the prince wasn't around?

Thinking about this, she quickly found Xiao Qingqian's pendant and ran to the entrance of the mansion with quick steps.

As expected, she was stopped by two guards.

Die'er steadied her breathing. "The wangfei has orders for me to make a trip out of the manor. All of you, quickly get out of the way!"

Although the news of Wei Qing getting pampered had spread throughout the whole of Prince Chu Manor, the guards were like Zhong Kui, impartial and unmoved.

The uneasiness in Die'er's heart became stronger. She took out her waistband and angrily shouted, "Open your dog eyes wide and look carefully!"

The two guards' gazes fell on the waist in her hands, and their eyes slightly widened. They looked at each other, and one of them angrily asked: "Where did you get the waist of a prince?"

Die'er forced herself not to show fear. "Naturally, it was the prince who gave it to the wangfei!"

The two exchanged a look before letting Die'er out of the manor.

Die'er jogged toward the Prime Minister's manor. When the guards saw her running out of breath, they knew that something serious must have happened and hurried in to report to her.

Prime Minister Wei had previously arranged a secret guard for Wei Qing. However, Wei Qing was worried that Xiao Qingqian would find out, so she allowed the secret guard to return to the Prime Minister's Estate. Prime Minister Wei originally wanted to find time for her to choose a maidservant that knew martial arts. However, there were a lot of things happening recently, so he temporarily pushed this matter to the back.

I don't want to. The more I neglect something, the worse it becomes!

"Master, the young miss said that if she doesn't return within two hours, she'll have to ask this servant to come and find you!" Die'er held her chest as she spoke urgently.

Prime Minister Wei frowned. Tian Sisi was really bold. No matter what, Wei Qing was the first daughter of the Prime Minister, and yet she still dared to scheme against her.

He called the secret guard and told him to find Wei Qing before Xiao Qingqian returned to the mansion. He hastily changed into his official uniform and went to the palace in an attempt to stop Xiao Qingqian and delay him for a while.

However, things in the world were always as difficult as he wished!

The moment the guard infiltrated the Wu Steel Manor, Xiao Qingqian's carriage arrived at the mansion's entrance.

When Xiao Qingqian heard that Wei Qing had asked Die'er to take him to the Prime Minister's Estate, his face turned ashen.

She really thought that Prince Chu's residence was the Prime Minister's residence, allowing her to create whatever she wanted!

"Where is she?"

Based on his understanding of Wei Qing, he knew that it would be extremely easy for him to get his hands on her. Moreover, the two guards also said that Die'er was very anxious when she went out. It was likely that something bad had happened.

"This subordinate does not know!"

Xiao Qingqian walked to Wei Qing's bedroom with a furious expression.

After searching left and right, he was still unable to find the person he was looking for. His face was as dark as ink.

At that moment, Tian Sisi's servant girl rushed in with Wei Qing's things.

"Prince?"

Xiao Qingqian narrowed his eyes. As far as he knew, after Bi Yao died, the maidservant next to Tian Sisi was replaced by this person. If he remembered correctly, it should be called Hong Xiao.

"You're here with Siley?"

"This servant is Hong Xiao!"

"But what happened to Silk?" Xiao Qingqian asked urgently.

"Just now, Concubine Tian's abdominal pain was so severe that this servant came over to inform the wangfei and then called for a doctor. Now that Concubine Tian had taken her medicine to rest, this servant saw that Princess Wangfei's things were left behind, so I sent them over. "

"Princess went to Ser's chamber?" Xiao Qingqian frowned.

Hong Xiao nodded.

"When did that happen? Why hasn't the princess returned?"

Hong Xiao was also stunned. "I don't know!"

Xiao Qingqian thought: Something must have happened!

No matter how unreliable Wei Qing was, it wouldn't be too late for her to return to the sleeping quarters. Die'er had taken him by the waist and left the manor, so she must have gone to look for him!

With this thought, he hastily ordered the dark guards to search the mansion.

Hearing that Wei Qing had sneakily gone to one of the rooms, Xiao Qingqian suddenly thought of something. His face was extremely cold. He ordered the guards to temporarily stop searching and went to the other room.

Silence filled the room. He tightened his grip under his sleeve and coldly kicked open the room's door.

Using the light from the candles outside, he saw the shadows of people behind the curtains. He went up to them furiously and pulled them out of bed.

The guard was caught off guard and fell to the ground. When he saw Xiao Qingqian, he was stunned and knelt down, "Your Highness, all of this was forced by Princess Hua-Yang …"

Before he could finish his sentence, he unceremoniously kicked him in the chest.

"Hmm …" The guard only felt a sweet and fishy feeling in his chest as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

A bloody smell filled the air, making the already depressing atmosphere seem even more cramped.

"Put your clothes on!" Xiao Qingqian's words seemed to come from the gaps between his teeth, they were as cold as ice blades.

The guard hurriedly grabbed the clothes on the ground and put them on. Just as he was about to leave, he was hit on the back by the sharp inner force from Xiao Qingqian.

His eyes widened and he fell to the ground with a thud.

Xiao Qingqian looked at Wei Qing, who was disheveled on the bed. The anger in his chest rose up like a volcano erupting.

Without holding back in the slightest, he reached out his hand to grab her neck, increasing the amount of force he exerted …
