Princess Medical Doctor Chapter 358: Pushes far, the emperor is not happy

Xiao Tianyao’s speed was extremely fast. He arrived at the rainy mansion before dawn. After bathing, he was full of spirits. There was no trace of fatigue on his face. No one will think that he traveled back and forth a hundred miles last night and killed countless people.
If Lin Chujiu didn’t saw him leave last night wearing night clothes. She will also think that he just slept well last night and didn’t do anything bad.
Lin Chujiu secretly looked at Xiao Tianyao, but whenever their line of sight was about to meet, she will sweep away her eyes… …
Not long after, the Crown Prince and others came over. Contrary to Xiao Tianyao’s refreshing appearance, the Crown Prince and Ji Fengyu’s face was pale, and they have dark circle under their eyes. At first glance, it can be seen that they didn’t sleep well last night.
Presumably, the two just tossed around themselves and think about what happened last night. Guessing all night who could be the person took a shot at Xiao Tianyao.
The Crown Prince and Ji Fengyu’s mind was shallow. Lin Chujiu could easily guess what’s on their mind by seven to eight points. On the contrary, Xiao Zian and the Seventh Prince looked good and they a charming smile on their face as if nothing happened last night.
As for Lin Wanting?
She obviously doesn’t know what happened last night, but looking at her, she seemed a bit low in spirit. Presumably, she had thought a lot of matters about love… …
However, Lin Chujiu just kept all these thoughts inside her heart.

When everyone arrived, the servants quickly served the breakfast. Everyone eat their meal without saying a word. The room was so quiet as if everyone was sleeping. Except for Lin Chujiu, the other people’s mind obviously was not on the breakfast.
After finishing their meal, the Crown Prince and Ji Fengyu looked at Xiao Tianyao as if they wanted to say something. However, they couldn’t open their mouth. So, they waited for Xiao Tianyao to take initiative himself, but… …
Even with their obvious actions. Xiao Tianyao only acted like he didn’t see anything. Not to mention, even Lin Chujiu. After finishing her meal, she excuses herself to arrange things for everyone’s departure.
As the hostess, this reason was impeccable. But, Lin Wanting, who rarely get smart, seemed to have noticed the situation was not right. Seeing it, she also followed behind Lin Chujiu.
Xiao Tianyao and the Crown Prince discussed something. Lin Chujiu had no idea about it. She only knew that after they waited for an hour. When the two came out, the Crown Prince’s facial expression obviously looked a lot better. Everyone could tell in a glance.
Lin Chujiu shook her head while smiling. Xiao Tianyao was really ruthless. He just used a sweet strategy to slap the face of his enemy, but the Crown Prince was feeling flattered.
Just like the last time, Lin Chujiu and Xiao Tianyao stayed in the carriage with white blankets, which can be used to sleep. Xiao Tianyao sleep all the way to the Xiao Wangfu… …

While Xiao Tianyao was having a good sleep, the other people were feeling miserable.
When Xiao Tianyao left the southern hidden village last night, he let his people reveal the location to the emperor’s secret spies. And soon, the news was sent to the emperor.
This matter was of great importance. So, whether it is true or not, the emperor must send people. At the same night, a thousand elite soldiers departed the capital and quietly came to the hidden village, but… …
They didn’t expect that the seeming looking ordinary mountains in front of them, were full of traps everywhere.
After losing more than 300 people, they finally found the southern hidden village before dawn, but… …
Nobody was there!
If there were no more than a hundred dead bodies on the ground. They will think that they have only been played.
“Find them!”
Seven hundred elite soldiers searched the whole village. They tried to find the people who were hiding. and tried to search for traces of their departure, but… …
None!
There was nothing at all!
From dawn until daylight, the emperor’s elite soldiers didn’t find any living person. The traces in the villages showed that there were at least thousands of people living in there, and most of these people were trained assassins.
This matter was of great importance. The elite leader didn’t dare to mess around. He immediately returned to the capital and reported the situation to the emperor.
“The southern country raised such a group of people under my territory, but you didn’t learn about it until now?” The emperor was not only unhappy but also very angry.
“Except for the dead ones, you didn’t even find a single living person. What are you all doing?” Obviously, they learned this matter thanks to the informant who went to the mountains last night.
If it weren’t for that informant, the emperor’s secret spies, will not learn about this matter. And who knows when they will.
The elite leader didn’t dare to argue. He only bowed his head and said: “This subordinate is incompetent, please punish this lowly one, Huangshang.” He was not responsible for checking out these things. When the leader of the spies died, the emperor hasn’t assigned a new person to take over his position. The leader of the spies usually the person who collect this kind of information.
“Punish? What else zhen should do aside from punishing you?” The emperor coldly said, then added: “Did you find out who killed those people?”
The elite leader didn’t dare to say no, he busily said his own inference: “The strength of the other party is very high. All the dead people died the same way. No one was able to survive. Judging the overall situation, the person responsible must have the same strength as a martial god. The hidden village is near Xiao Wangye’s rainy mansion. This subordinate heard that Xiao Wangye and his party stayed there last night.”
Although he didn’t directly say that it was Xiao Tianyao, it was almost the same.
“Tianyao? Is it him?” Although there was no evidence, the emperor has already grasped the situation by 80%.
Last night, Nannuo Yao offended Xiao Tianyao. At the same time, the southern hidden village in the east was exposed. If people will say that the two incident has no connection, the emperor will not believe it.
“Did the Crown Prince and the Third Prince came back? Tell them to see zhen immediately.” When the emperor’s voice fell, the elite leader busily followed.

The Crown Prince and Xiao Zian haven’t arrived in the palace, but they received an urgent summon from the emperor. When the Seventh Prince saw this situation, he knew something is happening. But, he didn’t show interest in it, he simply took an important task of sending Ji Fengyu to his courtyard.
Ji Fengyu wanted to refuse. Because he can see that although the seventh prince was young in age, he was unusually calm.
Along the way, Ji Fengyu tried to test the seventh prince by words. But everything was seen by the seventh prince, so he returned without finding anything.
Both of them are smart people, they know that some things are better left unbroken. After this conversation, Ji Fengyu decided not to treat the seventh prince as a child.
“If I treat him like a child, I’ll probably be eaten alive without any bones left.” Ji Fengyu shook his head, but his eyes showed an undisguised appreciation.
*
Without question, the emperor looked for the Crown Prince and the Third Prince to ask about what happened last night at the rainy mansion.
The Crown Prince and the Third Prince didn’t conceal anything. They mentioned all the things that happened last night, including how Xiao Tianyao ‘valued’ Lin Chujiu and the assassination attempt to the two in the middle of the night. But as for whether Xiao Tianyao went outside last night?
The Crown Prince and the Third Prince doesn’t know anything. They couldn’t give a reply.
Hearing Xiao Tianyao trying to help the Crown Prince, the emperor couldn’t help but sneer: “Crown Prince, nothing bad is going outside the palace, you better go out from some time.”
His son, he will not let Xiao Tianyao use him as a chess piece, but… …
The Crown Prince didn’t understand the emperor’s attention at all. His first reaction after hearing the emperor’s words was: Why?
The emperor was very angry at the moment, so the Crown Prince didn’t say anything. He only suppressed his dissatisfaction. Even the chance might be low, his heart has decided to draw Xiao Tianyao more on his side.
His father was obviously only looking at Xiao Zian. If he will not get Xiao Wangye’s support, how can he sit firmly in this crown prince’s position?
