Hui Mo hurriedly chased after him and supported him. He didn't understand and asked, "Eh? Why do you say that? "
Xiahou Qing's voice was extremely tense, "She has never been a delicate woman. Things are not over yet and there is always the possibility of changes. She would never leave early because she is tired. This is one of the reasons. She entered the palace before the time was up. Even if Princess Changping decided to cancel the banquet, she shouldn't have sent the news so late. It is also impossible for her to leave the palace before she finished communicating with us. This is the second reason. The third reason — — "
"What is the third reason?"
Xiahou Qing raised his head, his face as cold as ice, "My premonition."
His heart was in great pain. There was no reason, but a premonition was telling him that something had happened to her. If he didn't immediately rush over to stop him, then he would regret it!
Hui Mo didn't say anything else and immediately supported him out of the hall. Just as they reached the palace gates, they were suddenly stopped by a figure. It was the fourth prince, Xiao Yun Su.
Hui Mo saw his malicious expression and knew that he was here to cause trouble. However, there was an important matter at hand and he didn't have time to waste on this person. Thus, he politely said, "Fourth prince, my family's Shizi has an important matter and has to leave first. Your Highness, please move."
"Move?" Xiao Yun Su sneered, his gaze sweeping over them. "Today's banquet is hosted by my father, but Xia Hou Shizi has repeatedly left the banquet. Do you think the Imperial Palace is your Nanping Mansion's territory? You don't put the emperor in your eyes! "
Without Xiao Minglan stopping him, Xiao Yun Su was like a dog that had broken free from its chain. He started to bark crazily and wanted to tear Xiahou Qing to shreds before he stopped. The officials who were leaning against the palace gate all turned their gazes over.
If it was any other time, Xiahou Qing wouldn't have the leisure to argue with a mad dog. He would just endure and laugh. However, at this time, he didn't have the mood nor the patience to endure, "Please move."
His voice was like cold jade. This was the first time he showed his strength in front of Xiao Yun Su.
Xiao Yun Su was taken aback at first, then he sneered. He lowered his chin, and his eyes looked as if they had been dipped in poison. He curled his lips and revealed his canine teeth. He deliberately provoked, "What if this prince doesn't give in today? Do you want to kill me in this Weiyang Palace in front of my father?! "
Xiahou Qing also smiled. It was extremely light, like a gust of wind that carelessly blew across the surface of the water, causing slight ripples. He retracted his hand from Hui Mo and took a step forward, approaching Xiao Yun Su.
Xiao Yun Su clearly knew that his eyes could no longer see, but for some reason, when he stared at the black cloth in front of his eyes, he suddenly felt a chill from the depths of his bones that could not be ignored. It was as if someone was stabbing him in the back with a dagger. As long as there was a little bit more force, he would be cut open and die.
He heard Xiahou Qing say softly in front of him, "Fourth Prince, do you think your life is important? Even if I really kill you in this Weiyang Palace, what will happen? "
"You!" Xiao Yun Su did not think that he would dare to reveal his killing intent so openly. He was immediately stunned.
However, Xiahou Qing took a step forward, forcing him back. His voice was deeper and colder than before, like a ruthless bell ringing in Xiao Yun Su's head, deafening even the apathetic.
"My Nanping Palace has existed for more than two hundred years, as long as the Great Yue. Every new Emperor has thought of razing Nanping Palace to the ground, but none have succeeded. What do you think the reason is? My Nanping Palace is the gate to the Great Yue. If the palace is defeated, the gate will be broken. Especially now that Southern Yan is coming with a menacing momentum, the situation is precarious, and war could erupt at any time. Fourth Prince, you think that a dispensable prince who can be replaced at any time or an important gate to the Great Yue? Which is more important in His Majesty's eyes?
Moreover, your mother has already lost her mind, and there is no chance of her returning to favor. The Qi family is like a monkey with a broken arm, unable to support you. Under these circumstances, even if I really kill you, what harm will it do to me? "
