Chapter 845: Chapter 846 I Just Hope You Stand By My Side

An Jing also couldn’t be bothered with Gong Juechen. As soon as she saw Xiao Changyi’s hand reaching out to her, she quickly placed her own hand on top of it and then, she was pulled up onto the horse by Xiao Changyi, sitting in front of him.

Once An Jing was settled in front of him, Xiao Changyi still didn’t even glance at Gong Juechen and didn’t bother with him either, immediately riding away on the horse.

"Hey! Changyi, Jingjing, wait for me!" Gong Juechen saw Xiao Changyi didn’t wait for him and rode away with An Jing, so he quickly mounted his horse and chased after them.

While chasing An Jing and Xiao Changyi on horseback, Gong Juechen’s lips curved up, his peach blossom eyes also brimming with a smile, clearly showing he was actually in a very good mood.

Unfortunately, Zhuri was running too fast. An Jing and Xiao Changyi did not look back at Gong Juechen, which meant they didn’t notice the fact that Gong Juechen was very happy at the moment.

Just as An Jing and the others were returning to their new home, Su Chengyu had already returned to the palace and went to the Imperial Study Room, seeking the Emperor of Xiyun.

"Father Emperor, someone has been harming Fifth Imperial Brother constantly!"

As soon as Su Chengyu entered, he made this statement, causing the Emperor of Xiyun, who was reviewing documents, to quiver slightly in his hand.

"Chengyu, have my words today emboldened you to take them as mere wind beside your ears?" the Emperor of Xiyun said as he put down the ink pen in his hand and lifted his head with the majestic authority of an Emperor.

Su Chengyu immediately knelt down in fright, "Father Emperor, calm your anger! Fifth Imperial Brother is also your son. Now that he has been consistently poisoned and harmed, such a grave matter compelled me to report to Father Emperor so that you may thoroughly investigate and reinforce Imperial authority!"

The Emperor of Xiyun leaned back in the Dragon Chair, his aged face devoid of any expression, yet when he heard Su Chengyu speak of Su Chengjin continuously being poisoned and harmed, his hand resting on the armrest of the Dragon Chair trembled again.

"Doctor Fang says that Fifth Imperial Brother won’t live past this spring," Su Chengyu continued, "Out of concern since Fifth Imperial Brother is Father Emperor’s son, the doctor who cured Yun Er of his congenital deficiency—Gong Juechen—was invited to examine Fifth Imperial Brother. Who knew we would discover that Fifth Imperial Brother has always been poisoned because someone has been continuously adding poison to his medicine. Now, everyone in Fifth Imperial Brother’s household who touched the medicine has been arrested. The medicine was from the Imperial Hospital, the prescription was from Doctor Fang. I did not dare to decide on my own, hence I have come to report to Father Emperor, asking you to seek justice for Fifth Imperial Brother!"

The Emperor of Xiyun closed his eyes, looking pained, "Chengyu, your imperial brother said you can bear the weight of Xiyun, yet you are now pushing the responsibility onto your imperial brother... how can I believe you are truly able to bear the weight of Xiyun?"

As soon as Su Chengyu heard the Emperor’s words, he knew that his clandestine visits to Su Chengjin were actually known by his father the Emperor, and he choked up instantaneously, "Father Emperor, I was afraid that you would be angry with me... I am not afraid of bearing the responsibility, Father Emperor... I don’t want you to be angry... I also want to heed your words... But Fifth Imperial Brother is my elder brother, I really can’t bear it... I’m sorry Father Emperor... I’m at fault... I’m at fault... Please don’t be angry..."

As he spoke, Su Chengyu’s voice was choked with sobs.

The Emperor of Xiyun, once more pained, closed his eyes again before looking down at Su Chengyu, kneeling below, and sighed, "To see you value such brotherly loyalty, I am truly relieved, but you are my son, and I hope you can stand by my side."

"Father Emperor..."

The Emperor of Xiyun continued, "I have never liked your Fifth Imperial Brother, and I have never explained the reason to you. Today, I will tell you why. Your Fourth Imperial Brother did not drown in the lotus pond by falling in accidentally. It was because your Fifth Imperial Brother, in a moment of playfulness, pushed your Fourth Imperial Brother into the lotus pond and that led to his accidental drowning."
