A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles-Chapter 850 - 748: His Majesty Spoils the Princess Too Much

Chapter 850: Chapter 748: His Majesty Spoils the Princess Too Much

Xiaosuisui was completely stunned, standing there for quite a while without any reaction.

It wasn’t until other Imperial Guards came from the nearby pharmacy with several doctors walking past her that she realized something might have happened to her godfather, the Emperor.

"Godfather Emperor!"

Xiaosuisui muttered and quickly gathered her strength and flew off, running all the way toward Yunhang County Yamen.

Inside Yunhang County Yamen, basin after basin of bloody water was carried out, while Ji Youzhi and Dugu Xiao stood outside, anxiously pacing in circles.

The already silver-haired National Master’s hair seemed even whiter at this moment.

"Seventh Uncle!

Uncle Dugu, what happened to my godfather Emperor?"

Hearing her voice, Ji Youzhi couldn’t help but become excited, quickly running up to her and saying,

"You’re finally back, quick, your godfather Emperor..."

"Youzhi, Suisui is still young, be gentle, don’t scare her!"

Next to him, Dugu Xiao quickly stopped Ji Youzhi from continuing.

Oh heavens, this little girl either sticks to her beautiful sister or to her godfather Emperor, who dotes on her too.

If she knows now that her godfather Emperor is critically injured, who knows how much she’ll cry!

Thinking this, Dugu Xiao didn’t let Ji Youzhi say more.

Hurriedly pushing Xiaosuisui to leave the area.

"Suisui, why don’t you go back to your room first!

It’s so late now, and you, as a child, need sleep!"

Dugu Xiao said while pushing Xiaosuisui away from the Emperor’s courtyard.

Xiaosuisui blinked in confusion and pushed Dugu Xiao away forcefully, saying,

"Uncle Dugu, move aside, my room is in this courtyard, where are you pushing me to?"

Dugu Xiao: "..."

Ji Youzhi stepped forward, putting some distance between Dugu Xiao and Xiaosuisui, and seriously said to Xiaosuisui,

"Your godfather Emperor was stabbed by the orphan of Prince Qing; the sword seems to have injured his heart, and even the National Master isn’t fully confident in healing the Emperor’s wound."

Hearing Ji Youzhi’s words, Xiaosuisui didn’t have time to think about anything and immediately ran towards the Emperor’s room.

"Suisui! Don’t worry, your godfather Emperor will be alright."

Dugu Xiao saw Xiaosuisui’s appearance, thinking she was worried and anxious about the Emperor’s injuries, so he quickly shouted a reassurance to her.

Then he blamed Ji Youzhi.

"Look at you, the child is young and probably can’t bear this kind of blow. What if she runs inside now and gets frightened seeing the Emperor so severely injured?"

Ji Youzhi sighed and said helplessly, "You shouldn’t stay here anymore, go to the prison and interrogate Lu Yunsheng to find out what’s going on, alright?"

Clearly, he is Lu Minister’s only son; why did he suddenly say he’s the orphan of Prince Qing?

As if that wasn’t enough, he didn’t stop mentioning avenging Zhao Bixia!

The implication being, twelve years ago, the case of the fire that extinguished the entire family at Prince Qing’s Mansion was related to the Emperor?

"Investigating cases isn’t always your job?

Why don’t you go yourself?"

Dugu Xiao quickly glanced inside the Emperor’s room but the door was tightly shut. He only saw after Xiaosuisui went in, she climbed onto the Emperor’s bed without even taking her shoes off.

"Investigating cases indeed is my task, but today the Emperor was gravely injured by Lu Yunsheng because your people didn’t protect him well enough. Are you sure you don’t need to investigate the truth of the matter to make amends?"

"What do you mean?

Are you saying that Lu Yunsheng was instigated by me to assassinate the Emperor? Let me tell you, Ji Lao Qi, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t talk nonsense!

Do you know that with you talking recklessly like this, you could get my whole family into trouble?"

Dugu Xiao felt aggrieved; this matter really wronged him. Initially, they watched Xiaosuisui practice a hand gesture taught by Yun Kuo in the dark alley and then she disappeared.

At that time, they were shocked.

Later, Yun Kuo also made a hand gesture and then chased after her, while they handled the scene.

Dispatching people everywhere to find Xiaosuisui.

Ji Youzhi said Xiaosuisui flying and disappearing wasn’t the first or second time, so he suggested they return to the Yamen first.

Perhaps after a while, Xiaosuisui would come back.

Ji Youzhi’s suggestion was confirmed by Xie Pan’Er, who had been following Xiaosuisui for a long time, so they all walked back together.

Just as they reached the entrance of the County Yamen, they saw someone slowly walking towards the County Yamen, carrying a long sword in his hand.

The person was stopped by the Imperial Guards within a safe distance, and Dugu Xiao along with Ji Youzhi stepped forward to inquire.

But the other stood silently, staring at the Emperor.

Seeing the person’s face, both Dugu Xiao and Ji Youzhi were extremely surprised and quickly asked, "Is it really you, Brother Scoundrel, weren’t you imprisoned? Who let you out?"

Dugu Xiao quickly pursued his question, while his long sword was already unsheathed.

"Everyone be careful, I have a feeling there’s murderous intent around him."

Dugu Xiao loudly cautioned the Imperial Guards.

Unexpectedly, just as he said this, Deputy General Wang excitedly spoke up.

"Young Master Lu, where have you been all day?

The brothers have been looking for you all afternoon, just in time as our General and Ji Divine Hunter are looking for you too!"

Deputy General Wang’s words left both Ji Youzhi and Dugu Xiao stunned.

However, during their moment of distraction, Lu Yunsheng had already advanced to the Emperor’s front.

"Emperor Yuansheng! Face your fate!"

Lu Yunsheng shouted, and the sword stabbed toward the Emperor’s chest, piercing his heart!

"Your Majesty!"

Both Ji Youzhi and Dugu Xiao were shocked and rushed forward, checking the Emperor’s injuries and arresting Lu Yunsheng, the assassin, which threw the entire County Yamen into chaos.

The National Master heard the commotion and came out from inside the County Yamen, stabilizing the situation!

Dugu Xiao nudged Ji Youzhi’s arm.

"Do you think it’s true, what Lu Yunsheng said?

Is he really the orphan of Prince Qing?"

Ji Youzhi, expressionless, solemnly replied, "Isn’t that what you should be concerned about?"

"I..."

Dugu Xiao was at a loss for words.

"You mean, whether what Lu Yunsheng said about the fire that wiped out the Prince Qing’s Mansion was the work of the previous Emperor is true or not, right?"

Dugu Xiao, feeling helpless, didn’t dare continue speaking. Instead, he grabbed a doctor who had just come out from the Emperor’s room and asked, "How is the Emperor?"

The doctor hurriedly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"The Princess said she had fed the Emperor the last Rejuvenation Pill on her person, and the Emperor’s health will gradually recover. Now we just need to take care of the Emperor’s wound to prevent infection."

Meaning, the Emperor’s life was no longer in danger.

Hearing this, Dugu Xiao let out a long sigh of relief, "That’s great, Amitabha, Amitabha."

Ji Youzhi did not show much reaction, as all this was within his expectations; he knew Xiaosuisui had a Rejuvenation Pill. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

However, now he was more concerned about Lu Yunsheng’s identity and what he had said.

"It’s great, the Emperor’s life isn’t in danger, I can save my head temporarily."

Dugu Xiao touched the back of his neck and said to Ji Youzhi, "The Emperor truly dotes on Xiaosuisui! To the extent of gifting her with such a treasure as the Rejuvenation Pill!"
