Chapter 263: Targeting His Highness
Chapter 263: Targeting His Highness
The next day, early in the morning.
Xie Yao had just woken up when she heard Zhu Qing report that Si Nan had returned.
Xie Yao perked up instantly and immediately asked Zhu Qing to summon Si Nan. "Your Highness asked you to come out early this morning, but what happened?"
"No, no." Si Nan waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't worry, Princess, His Highness is doing well in the palace."
"His Highness ordered me to come back... just to get something." Si Nan gave a somewhat flattering smile.
"What?" Xie Yao asked Si Nan.
"Those two dresses you made for His Highness..." Si Nan vividly described Xiao Ji's behavior last night, and finally concluded, "Crown Princess, although His Highness has lost his memory, you are still the most important person in his heart!"
He saw the affection between His Highness and the Crown Princess at their fingertips.
Now His Highness has forgotten the Crown Princess, and it is all because of the Crown Princess's efforts to save His Highness's life. Although Shan Shan has said that His Highness will never remember those lost memories.
But he thought, if the former prince knew the current prince’s attitude, he would definitely be angry!
He couldn't let His Highness regret it.
Xie Yao glanced at Si Nan with amusement, seeing through his little thoughts but not saying anything. She ordered Zhu Qing to fetch the clothes, "Your Highness cannot be without someone by his side. You will have to work hard these days."
Si Nan said with a smile, "It's not hard at all. Don't worry, Princess. I will definitely keep an eye on Your Highness and will not let any evil spirits get close to Your Highness!"
After Si Nan finished speaking, his expression froze slightly, and then he said, "Crown Princess, I will be leaving first."
After saying that, he turned and walked away as if someone was chasing him.
Xie Yao looked at his back, and thought of Si Nan's words just now, her eyes flickered, "It seems... someone has set their sights on Your Highness?"
"Ah?" Zhu Qing was completely confused. "Why would the Crown Princess say that?"
Xie Yao chuckled, "If there were no monsters, why would Si Nan bring it up? Go check who His Highness met after returning to the palace yesterday."
In the past, she wouldn't have to worry about such things at all, as His Highness would have taken care of everything.
but now……
Xie Yao was not so confident.
After a pause, Xie Yao said, "Don't be too careful. If His Highness finds out... just say it was my idea."
Zhu Qing was silent for a moment, "Yes."
Zhu Qing turned around to make arrangements, leaving Xie Yao alone in the main room.
She looked at the sky, which was tinged with paleness, pursed her lips slightly, and felt complicated.
She could make this matter foolproof and ensure that Xiao Ji would never find out, but... she suddenly didn't want to do that.
She seemed to... have other expectations for Xiao Ji.
But Xie Yao only sat for a while before getting up and getting down to business.
During breakfast, Zhu Qing reported the news, "Crown Princess, I have found out that His Highness only met one person after returning to the palace yesterday."
"Taifu Xuan and His Highness had a private conversation for an incense stick of time before leaving the Yangxin Palace."
Zhu Qing analyzed, "If it's Grand Tutor Xuan, is it because of Miss Xuan? Could it be that he wants to marry Miss Xuan to the Crown Prince's Mansion?"
Although the third prince can no longer be considered a complete man, this is a marriage granted by the emperor.
"But His Highness will definitely not agree! When Taifu Xuan left yesterday, his expression was very ugly."
Xie Yao pursed her lips and asked, "Is everything ready?
Zhu Qing immediately said: "Everything is ready, we can set off at any time."
"Okay." Xie Yao stood up and walked out. "Now that our father is in a coma, Zhao Zhao and Sui Sui, who are both favored by him, should also go to the palace to see our grandfather."
Xie Yao personally brought her two children into the palace.
As soon as I entered the palace, I met an acquaintance.
"Imperial sister-in-law." The person who spoke was the Third Prince Xiao An who had just been mentioned this morning. He was accompanied by another person who knelt and saluted. "Your servant pays respects to the Crown Princess."
It’s Xuan Yue.
She was wearing a lake blue dress. She was not stunningly beautiful, but she had an excellent temperament, which made people feel comfortable just by looking at her.
"Miss Xuan, you're welcome." Xie Yao stopped and looked at the two of them. "What's going on with Miss Xuan and the Third Prince?"
The Third Prince glanced at Xuan Yue with a smile and said softly, "My father has always been fond of Yue'er and personally arranged our marriage. Now that my father is in a coma, I thought of bringing Yue'er to see him."
Xuan Yue stood aside, lowering her head and looking down obediently.
Xie Yao smiled and said, "If the emperor knew about this, he would definitely be relieved."
However, Xiao An's behavior was also announcing to everyone in the capital that although such an incident had happened to him, he was still the third prince and his marriage with Xuan Yue still counted.
Several people entered the Yangxin Palace together.
Concubine Shu had gone back to rest, and Princess Yongle was accompanying her personally. When she saw the Third Prince and Xuan Yue, she was stunned for a moment, her eyes focused on Xuan Yue.
However, Princess Yongle's eyes were obscure and she didn't stay there for long, so even the Third Prince didn't notice.
"Miss Xuan is thoughtful." Princess Yongle praised her and looked at Xie Yao with a soft look in her eyes. "Zhao Zhao is still young, and Yaoyao is thoughtful too."
Xie Yao smiled shyly, "It's what I, your son, should do."
Xie Yao and Xuan Yue didn't think there was anything wrong, but the Third Prince's expression changed slightly, his face turned slightly darker, and he looked quite ugly.
They are all nephews, but Prince Yongle calls the Crown Princess Yaoyao, but calls his fiancée Miss Xuan. The difference in closeness between them is too obvious.
The eldest princess's action clearly shows that she looks down on him!
The Third Prince clenched his hands, lowered his head, and said nothing more, waiting for him...
Because the emperor was still in a coma, the third prince Xuan Yue, Xie Yao and others did not stay in the Yangxin Palace for long. They left after sitting for a while.
"Yu'er." The Third Prince looked at Xuan Yue with a smile on his face and said, "I have something important to discuss with my brother, so I'll have someone escort you out of the palace first."
"Yes, Third Prince." Xuan Yue had no objection and agreed obediently and submissively.
The third prince left quickly, but Xuan Yue and Xie Yao walked out of the palace.
"The little princess and the little prince are so adorable." Xuan Yue looked at Xie Yao and said this with a smile in his voice, but there was no flattery in his voice. It was just a simple statement and pure love.
