Chapter 397: Father and Son Collaborate
Chapter 397: Father and Son Collaborate
When the Queen heard the news, she was somewhat incredulous and even suspected that it was a conspiracy by spies from other countries.
But when the nanny told her that it was true, the empress's face instantly turned pale. Such a useless martial arts champion made such a big fuss about this matter. Wasn't this a slap in her face?
With anger, he said coldly;
"What do you say about this now?"
"Your Majesty, the thief is too cunning, and they haven't found his hiding place yet..."
The Queen sneered;
"Oh! The champion of Shui Fan State's martial arts was actually beaten by an unknown person, and even lost several lives.
She didn’t keep it secret and dared to make a big deal out of it. I don’t know whether to say she is smart or stupid…”
The Queen became more and more angry as she thought about it, and she raised her hand and slammed the table;
"You have the nerve to say that, aren't you afraid of being embarrassed..."
When the Queen was angry, the nanny was scared as a quail and dared not say a word.
Finally, the Queen sent someone to criticize Xu Wei severely, saying that she did not use her brain when doing things, and that she would not do it again.
If he continues to act recklessly like this, he will no longer be able to hold the title of martial arts champion, and all his benefits will have to be returned.
Hearing this, Xu Wei felt miserable and could only admit his mistake.

(Water Kingdom Harem)
The queen was lying down enjoying the massage from her servants when she suddenly heard a few whispers in her ear.
The queen's expression changed, and she immediately waved her hand, asking the massagers to leave, and stood up and said;
"Is what you just said true?"
The confidant stepped forward to help the queen, straightened his clothes, and replied;
"Yes, it is absolutely true..."
"What a coincidence?"
The Queen frowned;
"I just said yesterday that I would marry that bastard to Xu Wei, and today she got into trouble...
Isn’t this too much of a coincidence? "
The confidants also found it unbelievable. When they talked about it yesterday, there was no outsider involved at all. Could it be that the Fifteenth Prince has become so powerful?
Before he could figure out what was going on, the Queen suddenly said with a sullen face;
"Go check everyone who was in there yesterday, and deal with any problematic people directly. We don't want any traitors here..."
"Yes, Queen, I will arrange it right away..."
After a while, the confidant said again;
"After this happened, do we still want the Fifteenth Prince to marry Xu Wei?"
"Humph! Xu Wei was just in danger, not dead, so why can't he marry her?
Wait a few more days! Wait until her injury heals...
Also, keep Sixteen a secret for now and don't let him go out these days.
It's not proper for a grown-up man to run around all day. We're still counting on him to help the fourth child with his marriage! We can't let his reputation get in jeopardy..."
Upon hearing this, the confidant praised the queen for her thoughtfulness and said that she would never let the sixteenth prince know about this.
"Also, you should ask someone to investigate that bastard. I always feel that this matter is not that simple."
"Yes…"
……
Outside the palace, the officers searched every house but found no suspicious persons.
The investigating officer also asked Xu Wei whether the criminal had left any words.
Xu Wei thought for a long time, hesitating to speak...
The case officer Wu Qian looked down upon Xu Wei and said expressionlessly;
"You can say whatever you want to say. The Queen asked me to participate in the arrest of this case, so I have the right to know everything that happened..."
Finally, Xu Wei spoke the key words under Wu Qian’s majesty;
"He said that he had a grudge against the Fifteenth Prince, and that I worshipped the Fifteenth Prince, which meant that he also had a grudge against me..."
"The fifteenth prince? Are you sure?"
"Yes, what I said is absolutely true..."
After Wu Qian pondered for a moment, she asked someone to invite Huangfu Xinyue, but unfortunately no one knew where he was.
The official informed the servant of the seriousness of the case and asked him to notify the fifteenth prince to come to the scene.
The servants hurriedly responded with concern, and the official left when he realized that the order had been given.
After the people left, the servant went to the dark and made a gesture, and the people in the dark left after seeing the gesture.
The secret guard came to the place where Huangfu Xinyue was recuperating and told him everything about what the official was looking for and why.
After everyone left, Huangfu Xinyue moved her arm and bloodstains appeared again. The wound was too deep.
Seeing this, Huangfu Xinyue frowned. It was not an easy task to go out. He would have to wait at least a few days.
After thinking about this, Huangfu Xinyue asked someone to send a letter to Yue'e's father.
He also sent the things he had collected about Xu Wei's secret deeds to the hands of the Grand Tutor and others. He knew that these people were temporarily Ji Xingle's men.
With their help in taking down Xu Wei, he would be safe, and the Queen's plan would not succeed.
(In the harem)
After receiving the letter, Yue'e's father was somewhat worried about Huangfu Xinyue's situation. Huangfu Xinyue also knew that he would be worried, so she wrote a letter in advance to reassure him...
Father Yue'e burned the letter, then took the little princess from Gong Nan's arms, gently shook her, and said with a smile;
"Little sweetheart, let's ask your mother to have dinner with us tonight, okay?"
The little princess laughed without teeth. Seeing this, Yue'e's father laughed even happier. He turned around and asked the palace servant to invite the empress, and also asked the palace servant to go to the imperial kitchen to prepare a few more dishes...
The Queen was originally going to the Queen's Palace, but was intercepted by Yue'e's father on the way.
When the queen learned of this, she was so angry that she swept all the prepared dishes to the ground and cursed;
"Bitch, bitch, old bitch, all of them are bitches, the younger one hasn't been dealt with yet, and here comes the older one...ヽ(`Д′)?
No, I must marry that little bitch to Xu Wei as soon as possible. You guys take a message to my mother tomorrow.
We must hurry up and investigate the Xu Wei case thoroughly and close it. Once the case is closed, it will be legitimate for me to marry that little bitch to her, hahahaha!"
The confidant wanted to speak but hesitated. Seeing the Queen's crazy look at the moment, he was afraid of being pissed off, so he dared not say more.
"Yes, Queen."
Unlike the chaos on the Queen's side, on Yue'e's father's side, the Queen was holding the little princess and teasing her with a smile, while Yue'e's father was watching the scene with a smile on his face.
Neither of them mentioned Huangfu Xinyue. After dinner, while the empress was still there, Yue'e's father reached out and touched the little princess's face and said;
"Your brother said he was going to find some jade for you, but I wonder if he has reached his destination yet?
It’s great! My brother loves you, my father loves you, and my mother loves you too…”
Hearing this, the Queen raised her eyebrows and asked casually;
"What jade is Fifteen looking for?"
Yue'e's father had a smile on his face and said in a slightly blaming tone;
"He said he was looking for Lantian jade and asked someone to find it in Lingfan State. So, he went there as soon as he received the news.
He didn't even tell me, and only sent someone to tell me after he left. He is really getting more and more unreasonable. A grown-up son is no longer under the control of his father!"
Just when the queen wanted to say something, the little princess burst into tears...(;′??Д??`)
"Ouch! What happened?"
Yue'e's father and the Queen looked confused, and the palace men took the child with a smile and said;
"Maybe she has diarrhea. I'll take the little princess downstairs to wash up..."
"it is good."
Seeing this, the Queen also spoke;
"I'll leave first, you have a good rest..."
"I respectfully bid farewell to Your Majesty..."
"Ah."
