Su Xiaoxiao was sleeping soundly with the little packrat in her arms when there was suddenly a commotion outside the house. She turned around in a daze, let go of the little packrat, and crawled into Wei Ting’s arms.
The sudden hug made Wei Ting’s heart soften.
She had come at the wrong time.
He frowned and looked unhappily at the closed door.
“Young Master…”
“Got it.”
Wei Ting replied in a low voice. The guard outside the door did not say anything else.
Wei Ting didn’t wake Su Xiaoxiao and the three little fellows up. He put on his clothes and opened the door. “What happened?” The guard reported, “Helian Ye was killed this morning.”
Wei Ting was a little surprised. “Killed?”
The guard said, “He’s being resuscitated, but the imperial physician said… he can’t be saved.”
Wei Ting glanced at him. “This isn’t an expression of good news.”
The guard had a complicated expression. “Young Master, you’ll know when you take a look.”
Wei Liulang also heard the commotion and went to the courtyard of the Northern Yan envoy with Wei Ting.
All the countries had brought imperial physicians and showed them to Helian Ye. No one dared to say anything.
The Princess of the Western Jin Dynasty had a cold expression.
Why was she so angry that Helian Ye was dead?
Wei Ting met the gaze of the Princess of Western Jin in confusion.
“Come with me for a moment.’
Her eyes hinted.
Wei Ting left Helian Ye’s courtyard. Wei Liulang stood guard for the two of them nearby.
The Princess of Western Jin went straight to the point. “Moxie has been captured. ”
Wei Ting asked, “Did Moxie kill him?”
“You think so too, right?” The Princess of the Western Jin Dynasty’s expression was very solemn. “Yesterday, at the hunting ground, Xin’er, the Protector Duke, and the Grand Empress Dowager were attacked by a wave of wolves. There was something wrong with those wolves butl didn’t take it to heart. After all, they might have come for the Protector Duke or the Grand Empress Dowager. But something happened to Moxie this morning.”
With this, Wei Ting understood that someone was framing the Princess of the Western Jin.
The Princess of Western Jin said, “If one of my people killed Helian Ye, the possibility of me forming an alliance with Northern Yan is completely gone. More importantly, I will be punished by my father when I return and lose my right to compete for the throne.”
Wei Ting said meaningfully, “Yes…”
The Princess of Western Jin said coldly, “That’s right. My good brother did it. Princess Changle of Northern Yan married him as his secondary consort. They joined forces to set a trap for me.”
Wei Ting did not add insult to injury, nor did he take advantage of the
situation. He knew the strength of the Princess of Western Jin very well. A dragon was still a dragon after all.
“Of course, you can refuse,” the Princess of Western Jin said.
Wei Ting said, “No, my intention to form an alliance with Your Highness has never changed.”
Help in times of need naturally yielded greater returns.
Su Xiaoxiao was woken up by Wei Ting.
“Who did you say we have to save?” she asked in a daze, suspecting that she had heard wrongly.
Wei Ting sighed. “Helian Ye.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked suspiciously, “Why are you saving him?”
Wei Ting thought to himself that he didn’t want to save him either, but for the sake of the big picture, this guy’s life had to be preserved. “He was assassinated… He’s not dead yet but at his last breath. Someone saw Moxie come out of his room with a sword and insisted that Moxie was the murderer. He even said that Moxie was the one who injured him in the forest.”
