“Who is the one who a.s.sa.s.sinated Qianqian, have you investigated it?” Xiao Yan’s tone was so cold that it seemed like it was about to freeze as he coldly asked.
Dong Yan felt the pressure from Xiao Yan’s oppressive aura. He lowered his head and said hurriedly, “Reporting to Your Highness, not yet. However, our people have already gone to investigate. I believe we will have a result soon.”
Xiao Yan nodded his head. Then, as if he had thought of something, he said, “In addition, have you found out anything special about Qianqian?”
Dong Yan furrowed his brows in confusion. He was obviously stumped by Xiao Yan’s question. With a puzzled expression, he asked, “I don’t understand what you mean, Your Highness…?”
“I just can’t figure out why all three of them confronted a formidable enemy together, Ye Liuguang and Ji Wanwan were poisoned, but Qianqian came out unscathed?” When Xiao Yan spoke, he had a puzzled expression as he frowned, clearly unable to understand.
Of course, he didn’t want anything bad to happen to Su Qian. However, it’s just that Su Qian’s reaction seemed to defy logic, making Xiao Yan curious if there was something extraordinary about his Qianqian.
Seeing Xiao Yan’s interest, Dong Yan blinked and asked, “Since Your Highness is so concerned, do you want me to investigate?”
After hearing Dong Yan’s words, a hint of displeasure appeared in Xiao Yan’s eyes.
Dong Yan was immediately startled by the terrifying aura around Xiao Yan. He hurriedly knelt in front of Xiao Yan and was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. “Please forgive me, Your Highness. I didn’t mean it that way…”
Xiao Yan coldly snorted before he indifferently withdrew his gaze. His tone was so cold that it seemed as though it was about to freeze, “You are not allowed to mention such words in the future.”
“Yes…” Dong Yan hurriedly nodded. His heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally relaxed. He let out a long sigh.
He must have been out of his mind to think about saying those words just now. He was simply seeking trouble for himself!
“Retreat and investigate thoroughly. After Qianqian is done with her work, I want to listen to the results of your investigation with her,” Xiao Yan said with a stern expression.
“Yes, please rest a.s.sured, Your Highness. I will go now.” With that, Dong Yan turned around and left in a hurry.
After Dong Yan left, Xiao Yan turned around and returned to the room.
In the Imperial Palace, Su Qian relied on the token given by Xiao Yan, rushed into the Imperial Palace, and arrived at the Empress Dowager’s bedroom.
Before entering the Empress Dowager’s bedroom, a malicious figure blocked Su Qian’s path.
Su Qian was eager to return home. As a doctor, she knew very well that every bit of time she wasted was crucial to Ye Liuguang and Ji Wanwan.
“Su Qian, how dare you! Do you know where this place is? How dare you barge in! Are you seeking death?” Princess Xuehua, draped in a cloak and wearing inner garments, stood in front of Su Qian. She glared at Su Qian angrily and questioned her loudly.
“Get out of the way. I don’t have time to waste on you.” After saying that, Su Qian raised the token in her hand. “This is Ninth Prince’s token. Take a good look and then get out of my way.”
“Hehe, you’re quite formidable!” Princess Xuehua raised her hand and sent the token in Su Qian’s hand flying. Then, she placed her hands on her waist and walked up to Su Qian arrogantly.. She sneered, “Let me tell you, Su Qian, don’t think that having Ninth Prince backing you up means you can act arrogantly in the palace!”
