"Forget it. Since you and your mother are so stubborn, I will not force you. But, I will only give you half a day's time. If within half a day's time, the Imperial Physicians are still unable to come up with any other way, then I will have to follow the Imperial Physicians' methods." The Emperor said in a deliberately stern tone, but his eyes were filled with deep concern for Lei Fan.
At that moment, Lei Fan could not be bothered to care whether the Emperor was showing him more love than before. His back was already soaked in cold sweat.
"Yes." The Empress said quickly, deeply afraid that the Emperor would go back on his word.
When the Emperor saw that Lei Fan had regained consciousness, the colour on his face eased up a little. In order not to disturb Lei Fan's rest and the Imperial Physicians' treatment, the Emperor left the Empress' Palace with Xiong Ba and the others.
After they came out, the Emperor said: "Before the assassin is caught, the Imperial Palace has been completely sealed off. I would like for all of you to stay in the Imperial Palace for a while and leave after the assassin is caught."
Xiong Ba nodded and did not say anything more. The Emperor was not in the mood to talk much with Xiong Ba and the others and he arranged for the eunuchs to bring them to rest.
The little eunuch followed them all the way. Although Xiong Ba had many questions in his heart, he did not dare to say anything, but his eyes were fixed unwaveringly on Jun Xie. It was not until they were brought into a palace to rest and the little eunuch retreated that Xiong Ba could no longer suppress the doubts and anxiety in his heart and he rushed to come before Jun Xie.
"Young Master Jun! Although I had promised the Young Miss that I would bring you into the Imperial Palace, but I had not agreed to help you murder the Fourth Prince. You have acted on your own accord and if the Emperor finds out, it will implicate the Thousand Beast City! Do you know that!? "
Jun Xie looked at Xiong Ba expressionlessly. Xiong Ba's rage had been within her expectations. "Hall Chief Xiong thinks that Lei Fan's injuries were caused by me?"
Xiong Ba replied: "Besides you, who else could it be?"
Jun Xie had just gone out with Lei Fan and Lei Fan had met with such a mishap. Wasn't that a little too much of a coincidence?
Jun Wu Xie then said: "Hall Chief Xiong, if I am capable enough to enter the Imperial Palace, and injure the Fourth Prince before the eyes of so many guards, and even feed him the poison, would I still need you to bring me into the Imperial Palace?"
Jun Xie's words caused Xiong Ba to be slightly taken aback. It had been too much of a coincidence that Lei Fan had been ambushed and Xiong Ba had immediately thought of Jun Xie. But according to what the eunuchs had said, the person who had ambushed Lei Fan was highly skilled and not only had he been able to avoid the Imperial Guards' heavy patrols, he had even been able to hold a prince hostage right before the eyes of so many guards. Such a feat, was something that even Xiong Ba himself did not think he would be able to accomplish.
"It really wasn't you?" Xiong Ba asked hesitantly as he looked at Jun Xie.
Jun Wu Xie shrugged her shoulders and said, "Yes or no, Hall Chief Xiong can feel it for yourself."
The more Jun Xie spoke in such a magnanimous manner, the more Xiong Ba felt that he was being too petty and his face immediately turned a little embarrassed as he quickly apologized to Jun Xie. Jun Xie did not seem to mind and did not make things too difficult for Xiong Ba.
And Xiong Ba who had been fooled by Jun Xie's words did not notice in the slightest that Jun Xie had not even answered his question directly. Jun Xie had answered all of his questions with questions, without any confirmation or denial.
"I had not thought that I would encounter such an incident upon entering the Imperial Palace. Although the Blood of Kin poison is not considered rare, but there are very few people who know how to cultivate it. I had not thought that in my lifetime, this old man would be able to see the Blood of Kin." Feng Yue Yang said with a sigh.
Jun Xie had already sat down at the side, her lowered eyes suddenly glinting with a chilling glint.
