Ning Chengrui thought this was praise, so he turned around and said, as if to take credit for it: "Mother said that little brat comes over every day to disturb Third Brother's peace, so I came here to help Third Brother deal with him! Third Brother, you don't have to thank me!"

Nanny Yuan's hands began to tremble.

"I also told him that every time he comes next time, I will beat him up!" Ning Chengrui patted his chest. This sentence was what Rongpin had instructed him to say, and he forgot to say it, but that didn't stop him from saying that he had said it.

Empress Xian's palm lost its strength, and the handkerchief slipped off her palm, covering the snack crumbs.

"Do you hate the Ninth Prince?" Ning Shouxu sneered.

"That guy is a bastard, a bastard," Ning Chengrui shouted, immersed in his 'justice'. "He stole my mother's hairpin, his mother beat my mother, he caused me to have a broken head, and he even seduced my seventh sister and made my mother scream with orgasm!"

He did not forget to mention his achievement again: "I stopped him in the alley and punched him so hard that he spun around!"

There was dead silence in the house.

Ning Chengrui was the only one who was excited, while everyone else's faces turned pale. Ning Chengrui's four eunuchs noticed something was wrong and tried to warn him with their expressions, but Ning Chengrui didn't notice anything.

After a long pause, Ning Shouxu said, "I heard that it was you who framed the Ninth Prince, and your mother, relying on her position as a concubine, attacked Xiao Zhaoyi first? In the Imperial Garden, you attempted to attack the Ninth Prince, and you suffered the consequences. The Seventh Princess was on good terms with the Ninth Prince, and out of concern for her younger brother, she was blinded by anger and attacked him."

"Nonsense!" Ning Chengrui jumped onto the chair, threatening to attack. "You're talking nonsense!"

Ning Shouxu didn't respond and looked at Empress Xian.

Empress Xian's pale cheeks turned red, her eyes blazing with anger, and she shouted sternly, "Shut up!"

Ning Chengrui looked at her in astonishment. Only then did he realize something was wrong.

"You're fat and big-eared, with shifty eyes. I can tell from the first glance that you're no good! You actually beat up your brother and spread lies to confuse the public. Someone, come and arrest me!"

The two eunuchs beside Concubine Xian immediately held Ning Chengrui down.

Ning Chengrui struggled: "What are you doing! My mother is Concubine Rong! Let go, let go! I will kill you and sink your entire family into the well!"

"Slap him!" Empress Xian was furious.

Nanny Yuan stepped forward, swung her arm, and hit Ning Chengrui hard in the face.

Chapter 37 This Ninth Prince is Weird

Xia Jing was walking in the alley holding General Coal.

He wondered if Ning Chengrui had been to Yanghexuan. Logically, Rongpin would have told Ning Chengrui to go to Yanghexuan to see if he could get close to the Third Prince.

If you don't go, it's a pity. If you go, hehe.

The third prince was eagerly waiting for his ninth brother, but Ning Chengrui came and said there was no need to wait anymore because he had chased the ninth prince away. Tsk tsk tsk tsk.

Xia Jing became very excited when he thought of that scene.

I wonder how the Third Prince will deal with Ning Chengrui. The Third Prince is sixteen years old and has reached adulthood. Although he has not yet been crowned king, he is already qualified to discipline his underage brothers and sisters.

The third prince's mother is Empress Xian, and her father is the Minister of Revenue and Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. Although he will retire soon, his family background is much more prominent than that of Concubine Rong.

The way the third brother taught Ning Chengrui a lesson was impeccable, both in terms of etiquette and power.

When the news of Ning Chengrui being punished spreads, Ning Xuenian will definitely be very happy.

I hope this can dilute the shadow of her being captured by Concubine Rong.

As for Rongpin herself, it will be soon too.

Xia Jing touched General Coal's head and looked at the interpersonal relationship panel on his side.

Oh no, Ning Chengrui's intimacy level dropped sharply. It seems that he did go to Yanghexuan and was severely punished by the third prince!

[Name: Ning Chengrui]

【Age: 6】

[Identity: Prince]

[Intimacy: 13→5↓]

Hmm, it's down again? And it's still falling? What's going on?

Xia Jing was confused. What had Third Brother done? Such a huge effect!

I'll ask about it when I get back, now let's get down to business. He quickened his pace.

"Young master, young master!" Xiao Tianzi ran out from the fork in the road ahead and was overjoyed to see Xia Jing.

A cup of tea ago, Xiao Tianzi wanted to take Xia Jing back to Jingyixuan, but Xia Jing didn't want to go back and ran away halfway. Unexpectedly, Xiao Tianzi actually chased after him.

The character display range of this 3D map is still a bit short. You can play the Qin King circling the pillar in complex terrain, but in more open areas, it is far less than the line of sight.

Xia Jing didn't run away and let Xiao Tianzi chase him.

"Young master, please go back to Jingyixuan and get a physical check-up!" Xiao Tianzi said anxiously, panting.

"No." Xia Jing ignored him, "I said it's okay, look at me, I don't have any wounds."

"What if he gets internal injuries?" Xiao Tianzi bent over and advised with a bitter face.

"What internal injuries? I've even gone crazy and my meridians are broken!" Xia Jing dodged his outstretched hand. "If you want to follow me, then follow me. If you keep talking, I'll run away!"

Xiao Tianzi immediately shut up. It wasn't that he didn't try hard, but when the Ninth Prince ran, he couldn't catch up at all!

Although he had trained a lot these days and his speed could keep up with the Ninth Prince, or even surpass him slightly, the Ninth Prince was elusive and could always avoid him in the alleys as if he knew where he was.

But there are the most alleys in this palace!

He didn't dare to speak. After carefully looking at the Ninth Prince's body, he did not seem to be in any trouble.

"Young master, where are we going? How about to go to the laundry?" Xiao Tianzi changed the subject.

"Go to the laundry department and let Madam Huijing catch me?" Xia Jing turned his head to look at him.

Xiao Tianzi scratched the back of his head: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from the young master."

"I'm just taking a short walk. I'm really fine. Don't tell mother and make her worry." Xia Jing said, "Later, let's go to the Imperial Hospital and get a doctor to take a look."

"Okay." Xiao Tianzi felt relieved.

Xia Jing looked at the map and continued moving forward. Soon, they arrived at their destination.

The cold palace was a large one, only slightly smaller than the concubines' palace. Its walls were mottled, its tiles old and dull, creating a bleak scene.

There was no plaque on the door of the cold palace. It was a place of oblivion, needing no name. Only concubines who had committed serious offenses would be locked up there, forbidden to escape.

This big mistake usually comes from vying for favor. Emperor Kangning did not favor any of the concubines, so the competition among the concubines was still within the controllable range.

Yes, although Emperor Kangning did not favor anyone, the concubines still tried various ways to win his favor.

Two years later, Emperor Kangning's family illness began to show, and his health deteriorated. The concubines tried to help the prince win the throne, and the harem became really chaotic.

It was also at that time that the Queen assassinated the Ninth Prince.

At that time, the cold palace was particularly bustling. Finally, one day, a concubine in the cold palace was bored and pried open the dry well in the courtyard, discovering Rongpin's treasure trove. Rongpin was then imprisoned in the cold palace, and she and the concubine who picked the lock had passionate 1v1 sex every day.

At this moment, the cold palace was empty. Thinking of the corpses inside and the bloody scenes in the future, Xia Jing shuddered.

He loosened his grip, and General Coal fell to the ground and ran into the alley next to him.

He glanced at the panel.

【Name: Coal General】

【Age: 3】

[Identity: Pet]

【Loyalty: 80】

General Coal has been successfully subdued, and it's time for him to take action.

The walls of the cold palace cannot stop it. The key to the dry well is usually in two places, one is in the dressing box of Rongpin's personal maid, and the other is in the soil under the third stone next to the dry well.

Rongpin would occasionally help other concubines or eunuchs and palace maids hide corpses, and place the key next to a dry well to make it easier for others to bury them.

Without waiting for General Coal, Xia Jing went straight to the Imperial Hospital.

He randomly grabbed a royal physician, pretended to be curious, asked some questions about medicine, and asked the other party to examine him.

The result is naturally good health.

Odazi breathed a sigh of relief.

On the way back to Jingyixuan, Xia Jing ordered: "Did you hear me? I'm fine. Don't tell mother."

"This..." Xiao Tianzi was embarrassed.

"Forget it. Stop talking nonsense. The Eighth Prince didn't hit me. You saw it wrong. Can you remember this?" Xia Jing sighed.

Xiao Yue was too worried, and Xia Jing was afraid that she would forbid him from going out again.

"Yes." Xiao Tianzi agreed.

Xia Jing was relieved. Jingyixuan was just ahead. He got off Xiao Tianzi's back and jumped into the courtyard.

He was in a good mood after having tricked Ning Chengrui and got the title of Coal General.

He was happy early.

After crossing the yard and entering the main room, his body froze.

Xiao Yue was sitting in the host seat, drinking tea, while Wen Daosheng was sitting in the guest seat, smiling flatteringly.

"The Ninth Prince is back!" Wen Daosheng put down his tea, stood up, showing his eight teeth and smiling very standardly.

Xia Jing turned around and tried to run, but Yi Qiu was quick to grab his collar.

Oops! I forgot to glance at the map when I walked in!

That third prince was so abominable that he actually called the imperial physician. Isn't this just cheating his dearest brother?

He lowered his head and let Yi Qiu hold him.

Xiao Yue took Xia Jing and smiled, but that smile seemed to hide a shadow darker than midnight.

"Where is Jing'er?" Xiao Yue asked sweetly.

"I just took a stroll." Xia Jing replied.

"Just a casual stroll around has caused Concubine Xian to call the imperial physician for you?"

Xia Jing was stunned. Why is there still something about Concubine Xian?

Xiao Yue pinched Xia Jing's face, put him on a chair beside her, and took a deep breath.

Although she was already used to the routine of Jing'er going out and getting involved in incidents, but before, she was at most a concubine, but this time, it had reached the level where Concubine Xian had to intervene!

She suppressed her uneasiness and turned around and said, "Please ask Doctor Wen to take a look first."

"You're too polite, Xiao Zhaoyi." Wen Daosheng took Xia Jing's pulse.

Wen Daosheng was even more surprised than Xia Jing. This Ninth Prince always exceeded his expectations. When he heard Concubine Xian calling him to see the Ninth Prince in the Imperial Hospital, it took him several breaths to react!

Concubines are not enough, now it’s time to get concubines!

Where on earth did this Ninth Prince get his abilities from?! It's bizarre!

Chapter 38 Xue Nian Crying

Wen Daosheng's examination was very thorough, and the result was naturally that there was nothing wrong.

After he left, Xiao Yue grabbed Xia Jing and asked him what happened.

Xia Jing played dumb, and Xiao Tianzi told him about the Eighth Prince's interception. He remembered what he had promised the young master on the way. He didn't mention the Eighth Prince throwing a punch, but only said that the Eighth Prince pushed the young master, and they both fell to the ground. This conflict was much less serious.

"Maybe the Third Prince knew about it and told Empress Xian. Empress Xian was kind-hearted and called the imperial physician to take a look." Yi Qiu judged.

This is not wrong, but there are some deviations.

Xiao Yue breathed a sigh of relief and told Xia Jing that next time he met the Eighth Prince, he should just run away and not get close to him.

Xia Jing agreed, slipped out of the door, and sat in the yard waiting for General Coal.

Yi Qiu thought the matter was over. It was a minor incident, and they had just scared themselves.

She followed Xiao Yue into the bedroom, only to see her master sitting on the Arhat bed with a serious expression.

"Master, what's wrong?" Yi Qiu was puzzled.

"Why was the Eighth Prince able to stop Jing'er? How did he know that Jing'er went to Yanghexuan?" Xiao Yue asked.
