Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for preventing the Crown Prince from eating the poisoned snacks, saving the lives of the Crown Prince and the Third Prince, and eliminating the poisoner. The system rewards you with 1000 points. Your current balance is 19920 points.]

The system beeped.

Ying Yufu looked at the Third Prince with pity. If she wasn't mistaken, when she arrived, the Crown Prince was preparing to feed the Third Prince the poisoned snacks.

The Third Prince immediately received a sympathetic look from Ying Yufu.

With dark circles under his eyes, he felt as if he had found a savior when he thought about what happened last night.

"Princess Anguo..."

He reached out his hand to Ying Yufu, "Princess Anguo, you are my future sister-in-law, please save me!"

Just as Ying Yufu was about to say something, the Third Prince was grabbed by the back of his collar and dragged aside by the Crown Prince.

The third prince dared not resist at all.

After all, the crown prince was weak. If he rebelled and something happened to the crown prince, he would have no way to explain himself even if he had ten mouths.

The Third Prince looked at the Crown Prince with deep resentment.

The Crown Prince looked at Ying Yufu with gentle eyes, reached out and took her hand, "Fortunately, Fu'er arrived in time, otherwise, I would have fed the poisoned snacks to my third brother."

At that time…

The consequences could be disastrous.

Having poisoned his own brother with his own hands, the crown prince dared not imagine whether he could ever find peace with that guilt in his lifetime.

He could have simply stopped teasing the Third Prince and fed him some snacks instead.

Seeing the genuine fear in the Crown Prince's eyes, Ying Yufu grasped his hand in return, "It's alright, Your Highness, the Third Prince is perfectly fine, don't worry about it."

The third prince froze, blinked, and looked at the back of the crown prince's head in disbelief.

Is the prince scared?

Are there things he's afraid of?

He grinned, about to seize the opportunity to say a few words and try to blackmail the crown prince, when he heard a weak voice coming from outside.

"Your Highness, please have mercy! Spare Eunuch Tu's life!"

"Your Highness, the eunuch's head has been retrieved. I have sent someone to deliver it to the Xilin envoy so that they can take it back to the Xilin Emperor."

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw the Western Lin National Preceptor staggering in, supported by two attendants.

At the same time, Yu Hai strode in, knife slung over his shoulder.

The Grand Preceptor of Xilin suddenly turned his head to look at Yu Hai.

Yu Hai also looked at the Western Lin National Preceptor.

The two spoke almost simultaneously, and looked at each other at the same time, the sea knife still warm.

Fortunately, Yu Hai and the Western Lin National Preceptor exchanged glances for a moment before turning their gazes toward the Crown Prince.

The crown prince nodded and said, "That's right."

Upon hearing those two simple words, Yu Hai felt a surge of excitement. He bowed again and retreated.

Just before leaving, he glanced at the Western Lin National Preceptor.

Ying Huanchong felt as if those eyes also wanted to kill him.

The white gauze on his head hadn't been removed yet; it was said that he had been bitten by a gray rat and had become a eunuch. Although he was wearing a mask, he had completely lost the mystery he had when he first arrived in Beixuan.

It actually looks rather comical.

"What did the Imperial Preceptor of Xilin just say? I didn't hear clearly." The Crown Prince looked at the Imperial Preceptor of Xilin, a cold smile playing on his lips.

At this moment, he was still filled with lingering fear that he had almost harmed the Third Prince, and his gaze toward the Western Lin National Preceptor became increasingly hostile.

Ying Huanpang stood frozen on the spot, a chill rising in his heart.

When he left Beixuan, the crown prince was just a newborn infant.

Now, he has grown into a decisive and ruthless crown prince.

He may appear physically weak, but he possesses an extremely strong will and ruthless methods.

In the past, people thought he wouldn't live long, so they let it go.

Now that the Crown Prince has learned that Ying Yufu has the ability to grant immortality, obtaining her would be tantamount to having a long lifespan.

It is truly terrifying that Beixuan has such a future emperor.

Ying Huanpang slowly looked in the direction of Ying Yufu. If he could bring her back to Xilin and present her to the Xilin Emperor, he would be a great hero.

Thinking of this, his heart burned even hotter.

But after the initial excitement subsided, he saw Ying Yufu and the Crown Prince holding hands, looking very affectionate.

Ying Huanpang's excited heart was suddenly as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over it.

Ying Huanpang was no fool. Since Eunuch Tu was already dead, there was no need for him to plead for him further. He could only go along with it and say:

"I never imagined that Eunuch Tu would do such a foolish thing. This was absolutely not west Lin's intention, and Your Highness, please do not blame west Lin for Eunuch Tu's personal actions!"

The crown prince looked at him, a hint of interest in his eyes. "You're quite a good dog of Xilin."

National Preceptor of Xilin: "..."

He was caught in a dilemma: whether to accept the offer or not, he dared not argue.

He's been having a particularly bad time lately. If he angers this seemingly weak but actually ruthless Taizi Duan, and she beheads him too, then he's finished.

The Grand Preceptor of Xilin was obsequious and lacked the ancient demeanor he had when he was in Xilin.

He even looked to Princess Chiyue for help, hoping she could say a few good words for him, give him a way out, and let him leave.

At this moment, he deeply regretted why he had rushed over to plead for Eunuch Tu.

To everyone's surprise, Chi Yue had a completely innocent and naive expression, looking utterly bewildered, as if she had no idea what had happened.

The Grand Preceptor of Xilin sighed inwardly. Oh well, he couldn't expect any reaction from a princess who had been spoiled by the Emperor of Xilin.

"I only came to check on His Highness the Crown Prince. Since the Crown Prince is unharmed, I am injured and will go back to recuperate."

He turned and left.

Two servants supported him.

As I approached the gate, a soft 'click' sound suddenly came from the top of the gate.

Nobody took it seriously.

Ying Yufu, with her keen ears, looked up.

Then the lintel suddenly broke in the middle and fell down.

Normally, the Western Lin National Preceptor and the two attendants supporting him were in a straight line. The beam was so huge that if it fell, none of the three of them would escape unscathed.

But the door beam seemed to have eyes; when it fell, it only hit the Grand Preceptor of Xilin Kingdom.

The two servants were so frightened that they forgot to dodge, but they were unharmed.

Looking at the Western Lin National Preceptor, he was pinned under two pieces of door beams. Judging from the location of his injury, his waist was probably broken.

Fortunately, the two imperial physicians and Doctor Hu had not yet left, so they treated the Imperial Preceptor of Xilin on the spot.

Half an hour later, the two imperial physicians and Doctor Hu came out shaking their heads with regret.

"Your Highness, the Western Lin State Preceptor's back is beyond cure; he will likely be bedridden for the rest of his life."

The crown prince remained silent.

Ying Yufu's eyes crinkled into a smile. "Oh? That's not bad, at least you're still breathing!"

The two imperial physicians were stunned, and Doctor Hu was also somewhat taken aback.

After a moment, the two imperial physicians said, "Princess Anguo is kind and what she says is absolutely right."

Dr. Hu: "?"

How can you tell that he is kind?

Perhaps Princess Anguo's optimistic attitude comforted the Grand Preceptor of Xilin?

The Grand Preceptor of Xilin Kingdom had obviously heard Ying Yufu's voice. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared outside. "Princess Anguo, if you can regenerate severed limbs, you can certainly heal my back. I don't want to spend the rest of my life lying in bed."

Upon hearing this, the two imperial physicians and Doctor Hu all looked at Ying Yufu, wondering if Princess Anguo would really produce a miraculous medicine that could regenerate severed limbs.

Under their expectant gazes, Ying Yufu said, "National Preceptor of Xilin, one shouldn't be too greedy. Life is life, no matter how you choose to live; why insist on living upright?"
