each us. I have nothing to worry about." An Xue Tang was unconcerned. "By the way, are you sure that Fifth Prince is truly dead What do you mean about the Crown Prince being sentenced to death""Dong G...Having Xi Zi Ke'er and the others go to the capital was, first and foremost, for her to handle the situation with the Northern Border Princess.

Secondly, it is for sending people to infiltrate the princess's mansion to search.

This time, she was going to have everyone search the Princess Mansion of Xizi Ke'er inside and out. She didn't believe they wouldn't find the so-called explosives.

Upon receiving the Empress's command, the eunuch immediately took the imperial decree and, accompanied by a large contingent of Imperial Guards, went straight to Princess Xizi Ke'er's palace.

Xi Zi Ke'er had few people left in the manor. Within a short time, all of them were completely controlled by the Imperial Guards brought by this eunuch.

These Imperial Guards, with the Empress's order, showed no courtesy to anyone in the Princess's mansion.

After taking control of the people in the Princess' Mansion, they directly used extremely cruel methods and tortured them relentlessly, determined to extract information about the location of all the secret rooms where things were hidden in the mansion.

Xi Zi Ke'er left behind these people couldn't withstand a few beatings, and in a short while, they revealed every secret room in the Princess Mansion.

The eunuch still thought he could find something useful in the secret room of the princess's mansion, even things that His Majesty desired.

Unfortunately, the Imperial Guards he brought searched inside and out several times, but they couldn't find anything except gold, silver, and jewels.

Even the amount of gold, silver, and jewels in the princess's residence was far less than expected, not at all resembling the treatment one would expect for a princess.

After searching high and low, I returned empty-handed.

The eunuch and the imperial guards with him were all terrified, fearing that if they returned to the palace, the furious empress would have them executed.

But they did not find anything, and could only grit their teeth and return to the palace. They knelt in the main hall and reported the truth to the empress.

Unfazed, the Empress knew that nothing useful could be found in the Princess's mansion.

After all, Xi Zi now isn't as innocent as she used to be.

She was on guard everywhere, impossible to allow them to so easily find some useful things.

It seems Xizi Ke'er doesn't quite believe her.

Even though she had already received the imperial edict naming her as the Crown Princess, Xizi Ke'er couldn't find peace.

So, on this trip, she also took the explosives she had given to the Northern Frontier Princess.

She probably feared that the Imperial Guards she sent out on the road would betray her and attack her.

It has to be said, Xizi now finally has some brains.

If she didn't come up with a way, she really wouldn't be able to easily kill Xizi Ke'er.

After pondering for a while, the Empress narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a soft tone, “Go, summon those few ministers whom P'er is close to to the palace. I have something to tell them.”

The eunuch didn't expect to return empty-handed and yet still manage to keep his life.

Then, he couldn't help but let out a deep sigh of relief and quickly replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

After he had finished, he scrambled to his feet and rushed out, fearing that if he was late, the Empress would go back on her word and take his life.

......

At the same time, An Xuetang and others had continued on their journey.

Holding Xizi and her daughter captive has already lasted for three days.

Over the past three days, there have still been attempts by Xi Zi and Pan'er's guards to break in.

But, these people don't dare to be blatant, and every time they come, they come to die.

Perhaps because the guards who came were always coming and going, and it was already past midday, it was still quiet around An Xue Tang and her companions.

I haven't encountered Xizi and Panger again.

At this time, An Xuetang had boiled the medicine for Mo Yunjing again.

She walked over to Mo Yunjing with a bowl of medicine and handed it to him, "The improved prescription seems to be working. A-Jing, you haven't had any discomfort for three days now."

Onlooker Feng Ming nodded in agreement and also said, "Not only is there no discomfort, but your pulse has become more and more stable. The toxins in your body are almost completely eliminated. You just need to drink for two more days, and the poison in your body should be completely solved."

Mo Yunjing hummed in response, his gaze falling on An Xue Tang.

For anything An Xuetang offered him, he always took it without hesitation. This time was no different, as he reached out directly and downed it in one gulp.

I just don't know what kind of herbs she used to modify the prescription. The medicine I've been drinking these past three days is unbearably bitter.

Seeing Mo Yunjing frown and finish the drink, An Xuetang smiled with satisfaction. "Really that bitter"nd felt utterly exhausted.She raised her hand and rubbed her temples, saying with a lack of energy, "Let's not talk about it. Until the Emperor's decree comes down, everything is still undecided. Let'...
