Putting aside the current event, on the other side, while the two female public servants were teaching Lin Chujiu a lesson, Xiao Zian, who received the news, was trying to save Lin Chujiu, itâs just⦠â¦
This matter involves the life of the Seventh Prince. Itâs not easy to clear Lin Chujiuâs name.
Although Xiao Zian was a favored prince, he was nothing but a crippled son. He was raised in the deep side of the palace. Itâs impossible for him to sit on the throne. There was naturally no power in his hands. If he really wants to save Lin Chujiu, he has to go and ask his mother for help. Otherwise, it will really be impossible for him to save Lin Chujiu.
But⦠â¦
Xiao Zian doesnât need to go to his mother and ask for help, he already knows that its absolutely impossible for her to save Lin Chujiu. If not because they owed Xiao w.a.n.gfu, his mother will definitely not deal with Lin Chujiu.
âI can only ask the Crown Prince.â Xiao Zian was feeling helpless, but he canât think of another person aside from the Crown Prince.
*
At the east side of the palace, Xiao Zian successfully met the Crown Prince, but when he explained his intention. The Crown Prince refused to even think about it: âThird Brother, Xiao w.a.n.gfei poisoned seventh brother. Why would this crown prince save her?â Xiao Tianyao warned him not to make a move on Lin Chujiu, he agreed, but it doesnât mean he will save her.
âImperial Brother, the person who poisoned seventh brother is not Imperial Aunt. I can guarantee you that. Just please look at Imperial Uncle Xiaoâs face, come forward and say fair words for Imperial Aunt. At least, let Imperial Aunt talk about her side.â Although there was no concrete evidence, from his viewpoint, he can see that someone was only trying to frame Lin Chujiu.
âYes, but still, this crown prince refuses. Since you think Xiao w.a.n.gfei didnât do this, imperial father will definitely give her a fair judgment. Third brother, you donât have to worry.â The Crown Prince said with a smile. His smile looked very kind. Well, he was indeed very happy.
Xiao Zian, every dog has its day!
Donât you always have imperial fatherâs love?
Donât you always think you are on the top?
And yet, you are asking this crown prince for help.
Seeing Xiao Zianâs face full of worries, the Crown Prince gave ill advice: âThird brother, I donât want to say this because weâre siblings, but is Xiao w.a.n.gfeiâs crime has something to do with you? You are so worried about her, arenât you afraid imperial father will get disappointed on you? You know that the person Xiao w.a.n.gfei poisoned is seventh brother. However, youâre not helping him, instead, youâre helping Xiao w.a.n.gfei, are you worthy to be called elder brother by Little Seven?â
The Crown Princeâs face was filled with malicious intent, he couldnât hide it. He doesnât feel embarra.s.sed a bit, and he was just enjoying confronting him.
A prince with no power, he doesnât have any qualification to compete with him. Especially now, that he has Xiao Tianyaoâs support.
When his persuasion failed, and he saw the malicious intention in the Crown Princeâs eyes. Xiao Zian had no choice but to pull back. He said with a bitter tone: âImperial brother, I understand.â
The Crown Prince was afraid of their Imperial Uncle, he doesnât dare to cause Lin Chujiu trouble. But, it also doesnât mean that he will help her. Is the Crown Prince so stupid? Doesnât he think that if their Imperial Uncle learned that he didnât help Lin Chujiu he will no longer support him?
Crown Prince, you⦠⦠are really funny.
As Xiao Zian looked at the Crown Princeâs arrogant face. His heart gradually became cold. His eyes also gradually became firm.
He never had such a feeling before, a feeling of wanting to hold power. A feeling of wanting to dominate a personâs fate.
He is, in the end, an imperial prince!

While Xiao Zian helplessly searching the Crown Prince for help, Meng Daren also learned a lot of things in the palace. However, Meng Daren was hesitating to ask the emperor about this matter.
The Meng family is not stupid. Lin Chujiu had an accident on the day before the agreed date of treatment. If people will say that this incident has no connection to that, Meng Family will not believe it. But, what can they do?
* Every dog has its day â every person has a good or bad day.
If they want Lin Chujiu to cure Meng Xiuyuan, they need to go to the palace and ask the emperorâs permission, and then they will owe a favor to the emperor.
âI really donât want to do that.â Meng Daren released a heavy sigh.
Their Meng family never got involved in these messy things, and he really doesnât want to get involved in the dispute of the four countries. The four countries were in a chaotic state. If they joined this time, no doubt they will die in the end.
Meng Daren was hesitant. In order not to make decisions that he will regret, he went to find Meng Xiuyuan.
In the Meng family, Meng Xiuyuan is always the most rational one.
Meng Xiuyuan was sitting alone in the study room and playing chess against himself. He was not surprised at all to see his father coming. He put down the piece in his hand and got up to greet him.
Meng Daren nodded his head lightly, and then the two of them sat down. Meng Darren didnât beat around the bush. He explained the situation to his son: âWe found out that the poison found in the snacks, is related to Divine Doctor Moâs daughter, Mo Yuer. She wanted to use the Seventh Princeâs death for Xiao w.a.n.gfei to die.â
The reason why they can find out this matter, was not because Meng Family is too powerful. But because Mo Yuerâs side is too weak. Her foundation in the palace was too shallow.
When Meng Xiuyuan heard of this, he only revealed a faint smile. And under Meng Darenâs gaze, he wrote: Donât make a move.
âIs this really okay? What if the emperor deliberately put this crime on Xiao w.a.n.gfeiâs head?â Meng Daren was not doubtful about this possibility. If they could found out this matter, why the emperor and empress will not?
We have an appointment date with Xiao w.a.n.gfei tomorrow. Whether Xiao w.a.n.gfei will arrive tomorrow or not, that is a matter Xiao w.a.n.gfu has to solve. Meng Xiuyuan wrote a very long paragraph, but his faint smile was not affected by his mood.
âWe will just let it go? Xiao w.a.n.gye is not in the capital, who can save Xiao w.a.n.gfei?â Meng Daren frowned and looked very worried.
The woman Xiao w.a.n.gye will be fond of is definitely not simple. Letâs just wait for tomorrow to come. Meng Xiuyuan wrote without hesitation. He wrote with ease, he looked like not worried at all. Seeing his son like this, Meng Daren tried to suppress the anxiousness inside his heart.

Just like what Meng Xiuyuan was thinking, Lin Chujiu was not expecting any help from them. As for Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs people?
Lin Chujiu believes that the people Xiao Tianyao left will find out the truth. What she needs to do is to leave this prison and comply with her agreement with the Meng Family. So as to prevent the emperorâs conspiracy to succeed.
If it was before, Lin Chujiu will have a hard time to leave the palace prison. But now?
There were two female public servants sent by Princess Fushou Zhang. Lin Chujiu doesnât think escaping is difficult.
The two female public servants donât know why they suddenly lost their voice. When it happened, they were terrified. They also found that their feet were tied and they couldnât move at all.
âHmmâ¦mmmâ The two female public servants were really scared this time. They curled up their body in the corner and s.h.i.+vered in fear. They didnât dare to look at Lin Chujiu anymore.
Lin Chujiu didnât bother to completely take care of them. She only said to them to lick-clean the food, she didnât force them to do so, but the two were very scared of her. If Lin Chujiu will make another drastic move, maybe the two will definitely eat the foods on the ground.
In the eyes of two female public servants, Lin Chujiu was terrible. Such fierceness, such violent actions, she was not like a pampered lady at all.
The two female public servants didnât dare to move. The palace guard outside, who received an order earlier, also didnât dare to move.
The two female public servants just curled up themselves in the corner the whole night, they didnât dare to close their eyes. On the other hand, Lin Chujiu sat on the stone chair for one night. From time to time, she walked around with a pleasant face.
When the sun shone through the small window, Lin Chujiu got up and went to close to the sunlight. She bathed herself under the sun, then swept her eyes over to the two female public servants⦠â¦
