“Imperial Father?”

“Get lost!”

Xiao Junhao tried to explain, but as soon as he began, Emperor Qi Ming rebuked him angrily.

“Prince Qing, it’s better if you leave the palace now. Don’t further infuriate the Emperor.”

Xiao Nanye, who was standing on the side, gently interjected after witnessing the scene.

Upon hearing Xiao Nanye’s words, Xiao Junhao’s eyes filled with gloom. He dared not argue, instead, he bowed to Emperor Qi Ming and left the palace.

As he turned away, the kindness on Xiao Junhao’s face vanished instantly, replaced by an intense gloom.

He feared that he would not even be able to attend the Emperor’s birthday feast this time.

“Your Majesty, are you okay?”

Upon hearing the news, the Empress rushed over, her eyes filled with concern for Emperor Qi Ming.

Seeing the concern in the Empress’s eyes, Emperor Qi Ming grabbed her hand, “Empress, don’t worry, I’m fine.”

“It’s good to know that you are fine, I was scared to death when I heard the news.”

“Imperial Sister-in-law, rest assured. As long as I’m here, I will not let the Emperor be in danger.”

The Empress knew about the situation on her way here. Naturally, she also knew that it was Xiao Nanye who had blocked for the Emperor.

Seeing the wound on Xiao Nanye’s arm, the Empress said softly, “Nanye, we are lucky to have you today.”

“Where is the royal doctor? Why hasn’t he arrived yet?”

“Your Majesty, Niangniang, the royal doctor has arrived.”

As soon as the Empress finished speaking, she saw Wang Kun rush over, followed by the chief of the Royal Doctor Institute.

“Greetings, Emperor. Greetings, Empress. Greetings…”

“No need for formalities, quickly check King Cheng’s hand for injuries. Make sure no scars are left.”

“Don’t worry, Imperial Sister-in-law, 1 am a man. A few scars won’t matter.”

Hearing this, the Empress smiled and said nothing more.

Then, the head of the Institute checked Xiao Nanye’s wound, “Your Highness, your wound is deep. Don’t get it wet for a few days, and take good care of it.”

The head himself applied medicine to Xiao Nanye, and then bandaged the wound.

The Emperor and the Empress quietly sat on the side.

Seeing that Xiao Nanye’s wound was well dressed, Emperor Qi Ming asked the chief, “Is King Cheng’s wound harmful to his health?”

“Your Majesty, rest assured, Prince Cheng’s martial arts are strong, and he is physically healthy. He will recover in no time.”

“That’s good to know.”

“I told you I’m fine. There’s no need for both of you to worry.”

Hearing the conversation between the Emperor and the chief, Xiao Nanye laughed and said, with an appearance of unconcern.

The Empress looked at Xiao Nanye’s torn sleeve and told the maid beside her, “Didn’t you see that His Highness King Cheng’s clothes are torn? Quickly prepare a new set for him.”

“No need, Imperial Sister-in-law.”

Hearing the Empress’s words, Xiao Nanye quickly responded.

Seeing Xiao Nanye’s reaction, the Empress looked puzzled. She glanced at his clothes, as if realizing something, and laughed, “You seem to really cherish these clothes. They must be special, aren’t they?”

“What’s special about these clothes?”

Emperor Qi Ming, upon hearing the conversation, involuntarily looked at Xiao Nanye’s clothes, but couldn’t find anything special.

In contrast, Xiao Nanye’s eyes softened at the words. Looking at the Empress, he laughed softly, “Please stop teasing me, Imperial Sister-in-law.”

“Alright, alright, 1 won’t tease you anymore. I still have matters to attend to, so I’ll return to the Kun Ning Palace first.”

After saying this, the Empress looked at Emperor Qi Ming, bowed, and spoke softly, “Your Majesty, I shall take my leave now.”

“I’ll come to you for dinner tonight.”

“Yes, I’ll be waiting for Your Majesty.”

After the Empress left, Emperor Qi Ming turned to Xiao Nanye, “Those clothes are made by Miss Jiang from the Jiang family, aren’t they?”

Emperor Qi Ming made an affirmative statement, and Xiao Nanye didn’t deny it, he simply nodded, “Yes, indeed. They were made by Huan Er.”

“It seems, you are quite satisfied with Miss Jiang.”

As he said this, there was a complex look in Emperor Qi Ming’s eyes. Xiao Nanye, seemingly oblivious to the deep meaning in his eyes, just smiled and said, “Huan Er comes from a family of warriors and has a straightforward personality. She suits my taste.”

“Unlike other officials’ daughters, who appear weak and helpless, and just annoy me.”

“You?”

Hearing Xiao Nanye’s candid words, a hint of a smile appeared in Emperor Qi Ming’s eyes.

At this moment, Xiao Nanye suddenly leaned towards Emperor Qi Ming, grinning, “Imperial Brother?”

Seeing the look in Xiao Nanye’s eyes, Emperor Qi Ming directly shifted to the side, “What do you want now? I’ll have you know, you’ve already emptied my private collection.”

“Imperial Brother, considering the blood I’ve shed for you today, shouldn’t you compensate me a little?”

“I’ve heard that you’ve recently acquired quite a few treasures, Imperial Brother.”

Xiao Nanye’s eyes brightened as he spoke the last sentence.

“Are you a robber?”

“Don’t worry, Imperial Brother. I’m just going to have a look. You can go about your business and leave me be.”

With that, Xiao Nanye stood up and walked towards the back of the Qianqing Palace.

Watching his retreating figure, Emperor Qi Ming’s face was full of fury, but his eyes lacked any sign of displeasure, “Look at this kid, he’s always robbing me.” “Shall I stop King Cheng, so he doesn’t empty your private collection, Your Majesty?”

Wang Kun, who was standing to the side, suggested tentatively after hearing Emperor Qi Ming’s words.

Emperor Qi Ming glanced at him, spoke indifferently, “Let it be, they’re just things. If he wants them, he can take them.”

Hearing Qi Ming Emperor’s words, Wang Kun twitched the corners of his mouth, but didn’t say anything.

Were they just things? Almost half of the items in King Cheng’s residence were moved from Emperor Qi Ming’s private collection.

“Master?”

Han Feng was waiting at the palace gate. As soon as he saw Xiao Nanye coming out, he immediately approached.

“You’re injured.”

“Just a minor injury, nothing to worry about.”

Xiao Nanye mounted his horse and pointed to the boxes behind him. “Take these to the Plum Garden.”

“Yes.”

Han Feng had become numb to Xiao Nanye sending things to Jiang Peihuan.

Taking a few boxes from the eunuch, Han Feng also mounted his horse.

After leaving the palace, Xiao Nanye went straight to the Plum Garden.

Jiang Peihuan was practicing calligraphy.

She hadn’t practiced in a while. Just as she picked up the brush, she heard familiar footsteps.

Jiang Peihuan instinctively turned her head. When she was stunned, the ink from the brush dripped onto the paper, ruining her work.

Putting down the brush, Jiang Peihuan looked at Xiao Nanye with annoyance, “Your Highness, do you consider this your own yard?”

“I…”

“Are you injured, Your Highness?”

Before Xiao Nanye could speak, he saw Jiang Peihuan walking towards him.

As she got closer, Jiang Peihuan smelled the strong scent of blood.. Looking down, she saw his injured arm, “Your Highness, were you attacked again?”
