Chapter 1050: Chapter 1049: Various Forces, About to Reshuffle

Yexuan still remained silent, his fingertips tensely stretched.

His hand was also icy cold, devoid of any warmth.

After a while, Granny finally spoke, "Master, stop talking about death. It’s inauspicious."

She looked at Yexuan, gently saying, "Master, you’ve been taking care of the Prince for several days and nights without rest. You are a bit out of control today, please don’t mind it, Prince."

Having said that, she supported Hua Rong and whispered, "Master, the Prince is intelligent and wise. He naturally knows who truly cares for him and who is just using him."

"Master, don’t worry. The Prince can distinguish right from wrong. He knows his own path. You should go back and rest first."

This time, Hua Rong didn’t say anything further, rising from her seat with the help of Granny.

"Mother has sent Liujin to take care of you. I won’t disturb your rest. Let’s talk about everything tomorrow."

After Hua Rong had left, Liujin arrived to take Yexuan’s pulse.

However, Yexuan said, "No need, let Leng Ji come."

Leng Ji soon arrived.

Yexuan asked coldly, "What’s the situation outside?"

Leng Ji quickly reported the significant events of the past few days.

Granny Wen Ni, from Murong Yu’s side, attempted to assassinate his wife and was killed on the back mountain.

Long Xinghe had sought the Emperor’s permission to marry, and had already left the Imperial City yesterday with Feng Wuya and Murong Yu, heading to Tengbei.

After being designated as a criminal of Longteng, Chu Qianli did not go to Feng Qihe’s place but was soon reinstated as King Li and reappeared.

However, she was suspected of trying to assassinate Commandery Princess Feiyan and was confined by Chu Minghao in Yuhua Palace.

There was also a saying that Chu Qianli stayed in Yuhua Palace voluntarily to keep the Princely Heir company.

At this point, every nerve in Leng Ji’s body was tense, fearing to upset the Prince.

Yet the Prince had no expression, his face tranquil like still water, without a ripple.

No one knew what he was thinking.

Was Chu Qianli’s issue already... over?

No one dared to ask.

After a moment of silence, Leng Ji continued to report, "There is a message saying that the Heaven and Earth Lock appeared in the Nanming Imperial City."

Finally, there was a slight change in Yexuan’s expression.

Seeing this, Leng Ji hurriedly added, "But it is unknown if the news is true or false. However, all forces are now covetously eyeing the Heaven and Earth Lock, and it seems inevitable on the lady’s side."

Liujin touched his nose, "Has the lady not mentioned the Heaven and Earth Lock to the Prince today?"

Yexuan didn’t speak, but his indifferent face and calm eyes indicated that indeed the lady had not mentioned it tonight.

"Perhaps the lady is worried about the Prince just waking up and being too weak, not wanting to discuss it yet. But if not tonight, she will definitely bring it up tomorrow."

"Yes, Prince, there’s a rumor that Feng Qihe has already sent an invitation to the Commandery Princess today, he might personally visit tomorrow."

Feng Qihe’s interest in Chu Feiyan was obvious. It was certainly Feng Qihe’s attempt to win over King Yu.

Furthermore, with the Heaven and Earth Lock now appearing in the Nanming Imperial City, whether the news was true or false, they needed to personally investigate.

Otherwise, once someone else stepped in and obtained the Heaven and Earth Lock, finding the treasures within, the powers within this Imperial City would need to be reshuffled.

"Prince, some words from the lady might be unpleasant, but they are at least... reasonable."

Liujin had been standing at the door the entire time and hadn’t left.

He spoke softly, "For the Prince now, personal feelings indeed aren’t important. Prince... the lady’s health is indeed urgent."
