C116 (1/2)

”Let's go …”

Following Dongfang Hao's loud shout, the vast carriage slowly walked in the direction of the capital, causing a large amount of smoke to splash out and dazzle everyone's eyes.

At this time, the commoners looked at the prince who walked in front of them without smiling, and felt that not only did their Dongjun Kingdom have Crown Prince s that held the commoners in their hearts, they even had their own way.

Ten days later, capital that had been immersed in a haze for more than a month, had finally dispersed the clouds and light into the sky.

It was only because Crown Prince and Prince Mo, who had been missing for two months, and princess Shangguan Jingyan had finally returned. Although the commoners did not know the reason for his disappearance, they could clearly see the changes in his capital during these two months.

Because of this matter, the Eastern Region's Emperor was unconscious. Moreover, the current state of affairs in the world was unstable, causing panic to the people's hearts. Everyone felt themselves to be in danger.

Now that the future monarch and the destined empress had arrived, their long-suspended hearts finally sank. The haze of the past had been swept away. Of course, he was overjoyed.

In the Eastern Palace, Dongfang Chen's carriage entered the Imperial Palace unhindered.

”Quick... ”Imperial Physician Xuan …”

The horse carriage had not stopped yet, when Dongfang Hao's anxious voice came out.

After which, he carried Dongfang Chen down from the carriage and walked towards the direction of the Ronghua Palace, where the empress was staying. As Dongfang Chen already had his own residence, and he was currently unconscious and heavily injured, the emperor had specially arranged for him to stay in the palace so that the imperial physician could consult him.

Behind him, dozens of imperial physicians carried medicine chests in their hands as they ran in hot pursuit of his footsteps, as if they were in a hurry.

Their medical skills were among the best in the capital. They had already received the royal decree early in the morning, and were waiting here for the Crown Prince.

However, looking at Crown Prince's dying state, he was not confident. If he was able to treat her well, then he would have nothing to say.

But Crown Prince's injuries were relatively serious this time, and they had long since missed out on the best treatment when they rushed over from Luo Yang, so they were not confident either. If they were careless and Crown Prince could not wake up, then it would be over even if they were to stay.

Therefore, when the Crown Prince stepped into the palace, they tensed up.

When the emperor and empress dowager heard the news, they too sat solemnly within the palace, looking at the palace maids entering and exiting. Pots after basins of blood were placed in their hands, and they suppressed the shock within their hearts as they fidgeted.

Shangguan Jingyan's injuries were light, but due to the fact that she was the destined empress, the emperor was sure to enter the palace together.

Compared to the tense atmosphere in the palace, the palace seemed desolate and desolate.

When Jun Mohan brought Nangong Xuan and Mo Feiling into the ancestral manor, the gatekeeper looked at Jun Mohan with eyes filled with disbelief.

After a long time, he finally came back to his senses as he watched the few of them leave. He stumbled and ran to report to the old prince's courtyard.

”I say, Prince Mo, your popularity is too poor! Could it be that they didn't know you had returned to the capital today, why didn't anyone come out to pick you up? ”

As Nangong Xuan looked at this relative's residence which was cold and cheerless, he suddenly felt sympathy for Jun Mohan in his heart.

However, his sympathy had not lasted more than three seconds before he regretted what he had thought.

”Big brother prince …”

”Prince Mo …”

Suddenly, Dongfang Yao brought five or six beautiful, jade-like young ladies and stood in front of them. Her red eyes seemed to be filled with tears.

Jun Mohan and the others stood three feet away from him as they bowed.

”Big brother prince, is your body alright? During the two months you were missing, Yao'er couldn't eat well or sleep well, so she always thought about you in her heart. I never thought that you would be safe. Maybe it was because the heavens heard my intentions that they protected your safe return. ”

Dongfang Yao said with a snot and tears. She originally went forward to hug Jun Mohan, but when she saw his ice-cold face, she stopped in her tracks. He cried his heart out. It was a sight to behold.

After Nangong Xuan, who was standing behind her, found out that Dongfang Yao also liked Jun Mohan, he started to look down on her.

”Haha …”

Nangong Xuan recalled that she said that Jun Mohan was able to return safely because she said that the heavens heard her prayers, and in his heart, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

After which, he laughed insincerely.

After which, everyone looked at him as if he was a lunatic. Only then did he stop laughing as though no one else was present, and started admiring the scenery of the Royal Clan Residence.

”What are you laughing at?”

Suddenly, Dongfang Yao pulled out the sword of the guard who was standing by the door, and pointed at Nangong Xuan's throat.

At first glance, she recognized that this was the prince of Southern Frontier. Since the various nations were never at peace, where was his purpose in coming to the Eastern Region?

If it wasn't for the fact that she was afraid of implicating Big Brother prince, she would have already sent a message to royal father, telling him to accept the Southern Frontier Crown Prince. If there really was a war in the future, she could use him as a bargaining chip and control her Southern Frontier to listen to the orders of the Eastern County.

”Princess Yao, what are you doing? I suddenly want to laugh, can't I? ”

Nangong Xuan was not used to people pointing swords at him, he slowly stroked his sword as his cold voice came out of his mouth, it was as if he was the imposing aura a prince should have.

After which, he gently flicked the sword's head, and in an instant, the sword broke into two pieces. The sword hilt was tightly grasped in Dongfang Yao's hand, but the sharp blade was long gone.

At this moment, the courtyard was eerily quiet.
