Xu Ning looked at King An calmly and did not say a word.
Zheng Lide was worried. His Highness had suffered such a serious injury. What should he do?
"Venerable One?" Zheng Lide asked in a low voice.
Xu Ning looked at him and said calmly, "Almsgiver Zheng, please invite the two princesses over."
"This …" Zheng Lide said, "Venerable One, the inner chamber cannot interfere with the affairs of the residence, it only cares about the inner chamber."
"We should let the two wangfei know about Wang Ye's injuries." Xu Ning said, "Wang Ye trusts the two wangfei the most."
"… Yes." Zheng Lide helplessly agreed.
What he was afraid of was that once Wang Ye became seriously ill, the two wangfei would fight and fight for power in the fu.
The two wangfei were not easy to deal with. Before Wang Ye did anything, the two wangfei would do something unpredictable.
Hearing Zheng Lide's report, Song Liuying and Xue Ningyu who were talking to Siao Shi in the Tianshu Courtyard were shocked.
"Your Royal Highness is injured?" Song Liuying frowned, "Who injured Your Royal Highness?"
"Your Highness suffered a Qi Deviation last night." Zheng Lide lowered his eyebrows and answered: I woke up for a while, took the pill and fell asleep. I came to report to the three Wangfei and ask the Wangfei not to worry.
"How did he go berserk?" Song Liuying muttered, "Where did Your Royal Highness practice martial arts?"
"The training courtyard," Zheng Lide said.
Song Liuying heaved a sigh of relief. Then there would be no problem and no one would disturb them.
Xue Ningyu scoffed, "Is Royal Highness's injury serious?"
"He should be fine after taking the pill," Zheng Lide said, "Revered Xu Ning is taking care of him by your side, his life is not in danger."
Xiao Shi said, "Sisters, please visit His Royal Highness on my behalf. I'm not feeling well, I can't do it even if I want to."
"Alright, let's go take a look first. Sister Xiao, don't worry, take care of yourself." Xue Ningyu quickly stood up.
Song Liuying stood up too.
The two of them hurriedly left one after the other, and Zheng Lide hurriedly followed.
When Chu Li arrived at Tianshu Courtyard, Xiao Shi was smiling happily.
When she saw Chu Li, she waved her hand.
Chu Li smiled and moved forward. A faint fragrance entered his nose.
She lowered her voice and smiled. "King An has gone mad!"
Chu Li nodded.
"You did this?" Siao Shi's voice became even softer.
Chu Li smiled. "More or less."
"Well done!" Xiao Shi's smile was as beautiful as a flower, her beauty was unparalleled.
Chu Li averted his gaze and shook his head. "Unfortunately, it's not enough. He's lucky. "
"If it doesn't work this time, there's always the next time." Siao Shi said, "With your calculations, you'll definitely be able to kill him!"
Chu Li smiled and nodded. "Don't worry."
Xiao Shi chuckled. "Are his injuries serious?"
Chu Li said, "I can recover."
"Sigh … What a pity," Siao Shi shook her head and sighed, "If only I could stay in bed forever, that would be the best!"
"Don't rush, take your time," Chu Li said.

Song Liuying and Xue Ningyu came to the study room. Seeing the fainted King An and his pale face, he looked at Xu Ning worriedly.
Song Liuying said, "Venerable One, is His Royal Highness alright?"
Xu Ning pressed his palms together and bowed. "Don't worry, Princess. King An is blessed by the heavens. His life is not in danger."
"That's good," Song Liuying nodded lightly and frowned, "When will the Royal Highness wake up?"
"Should be in the evening," Xu Ning said.
Song Liuying said, "Then we'll guard here."
Xu Ning nodded lightly and kept his mouth shut.
Song Liuying and Xue Ningyu sat by the bed and looked at the fainted King An. They were worried sick.
King An was the Master of the Imperial Residence. If anything were to happen to him, they would be orphans and widows. They would be alone and helpless. It would be hard for them to avoid being bullied.
"Princess!" A young voice suddenly came from outside, "Two maids have gone missing."
Once she heard Li Gui's voice, Xue Ningyu said impatiently, "Come in and talk!"
Li Gui was dressed in a brocade robe. He pushed the door open and entered. He bowed respectfully in front of the two ladies.
Xue Ningyu asked, "What happened?"
"Two maids went out to buy some rouge this morning. They haven't returned yet," Li Gui said softly, "I sent someone to look for them, but they couldn't find them!"
"You think they ran away with the money?" Xue Ningyu scoffed.
Li Gui shook his head and said, "They didn't have much money. They wouldn't have run away. Besides, their luggage is still there. Their jewelry and other valuables are still there too. "
"Then what exactly happened?" Xue Ningyu said impatiently, "Hurry up and say it. I don't have the time to waste with you!"
Li Gui lowered his head and sighed, "Princess. I'm worried that someone took them away! "
"Hmm — —?" Xue Ningyu frowned and stared at him.
Li Gui nodded, "We still can't find them. They probably didn't get lost. They were taken away!"
"Who would be so daring?" Xue Ningyu scoffed.
Li Gui said, "The Royal Highness solved a big case yesterday. He caught all the human traffickers in one go. I suspect … suspect …"
Xue Ningyu said impatiently, "Could it be that the fish that escaped the net is taking revenge?"
"This is only my guess. You can't take it seriously," Li Gui quickly said.
Xue Ningyu frowned and did not say a word. She turned and looked at Song Liuying.
Song Liuying said, "If it's really them, then it's really troublesome! The Royal Highness isn't awake yet. Who's going to make the decision? "
Li Gui rolled his eyes and said in a low voice, "Princess, why don't you ask the Head Chief …. The person with the highest rank in the Imperial Residence is the Head Chief."
Xue Ningyu stared at him coldly. She knew that he was up to no good. She scoffed, "You can't do your job properly. You're always thinking of crooked ways. Be careful of your head!"
Li Gui quickly said, "I'm just saying. The Princess is the one who decides what to do!"
Song Liuying glanced at Li Gui and looked at Xue Ningyu, "Although Li Gui's intentions are bad, his words are not wrong. We two women can only manage the matters of the Imperial Residence. The Royal Highness can't make the decision for the matters outside. Then it's the Head Chief's turn."
"The Head Chief is new here. He doesn't understand the situation in the Fairy's Capital," Xue Ningyu frowned.
She was worried that if Chu Li made a mistake, Prince An would inevitably blame him when he wakes up. Moreover, his subordinates were like Li Gui. They were all up to no good. They would not put in the effort and purposely put in a show of strength to the Head Chief.
Song Liuying felt that Chu Li had divine powers. He was the most suitable person to manage this matter.
"If the Head Chief can't do it, we can't do it either," Song Liuying glanced at Li Gui, "With these people, what can they do?"
"… Alright, then we can only ask the Head Chief to come." Xue Ningyu scoffed, "Li Gui, can you find the hair of these two maids?"
"Hair?" Li Gui hesitated.
Xue Ningyu said, "Stop talking nonsense. Go find their hair and send it to Tianshu Courtyard!"
"Yes," Li Gui quickly nodded. He closed fist saluted and left.
Xue Ningyu said, "Sister Song, you accompany the Royal Highness. I'll go talk to the Head Chief."
Song Liuying nodded lightly.
Chu Li was studying in Tianshu Courtyard. Siao Shi was lying on the couch in the courtyard, basking in the sun. Xue Ningyu came in and explained the situation.
Chu Li frowned, "The maids are missing …"
Xue Ningyu smiled, "Head Chief, the Royal Highness is unconscious. Something happened in the Imperial Residence. We women can't show ourselves in public. We can only ask the Head Chief to do it!"
Chu Li nodded, "It's my duty! … Let me see where they are. "
Li Gui's light footsteps could be heard. He arrived outside Tianshu Courtyard.
Siao Shi ordered. Xue Ling left the courtyard and took the embroidered pouch from Li Gui's hands.
Li Gui's eyes lit up when he saw Xue Ling.
Xue Ling glanced at him. She took the embroidered pouch and returned to the courtyard.
