The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

In fact, while standing guard, I've always been worried, but because of the imperial command, I dared not disobey the orders, so all I could do was feel anxious. Hearing that Ye Qichi summoned me, all I could think of was that it was to give Xiao Jinxing the last rites.

"The condition is very serious, but it's not yet to the point of immediate death. However, if he doesn't wake up tonight, he might really not make it," said Ye Qichi.

Wu Xufan was still deeply shocked.

How could a scourge like Xiao Jinxing just not make it?!

From childhood, Xiao Jinxing had actually been abused as he grew up. He suffered so many injuries, so many fatal wounds, how could it be this time, so severe?

Since it's so severe, why did he still take a sword for the Emperor? If the Emperor had just seized the opportunity to die, Xiao Jinxing could legitimately ascend to the position. Of course, Xiao Jinsen definitely would not let him ascend so easily. Even though most of the court ministers currently support Xiao Jinsen, with Xiao Jinxing having his trump card, as well as the Bai Family army's trump card, was Xiao Jinxing still afraid he wouldn't have a chance of winning?!

Wu Xufan couldn't figure out Xiao Jinxing.

Xiao Jinxing was always inscrutable.

Xiao Jinxing could think of deeper things, which he really might not be able to comprehend.

Now he just felt it wasn't worth it for Xiao Jinxing.

If he were to just die like this.

The deep-seated hatred he bore, the vengeance for his mother's murder, would all be in vain!

"So I now need you to help me with something," Ye Qichi said bluntly.

"What?"

"You now need to send someone out of the palace, go to Prince Chen's Mansion, find Lu You to bring my medical kit, I need to perform surgery on Xiao Jinxing."

"What medical kit? What surgery?"

"Even if I explained, you wouldn't understand. Just send someone to retrieve it," Ye Qichi didn't want to waste time.

The Imperial Palace was under strict guard at the moment; only Wu Xufan had the ability to enter and exit as he wished.

Seeing Ye Qichi with an anxious look, Wu Xufan didn't ask any further questions.

After all, as long as it could save Xiao Jinxing, that was all that mattered.

He hurriedly said, "I'll send someone to take care of it immediately."

"The faster, the better."

"Alright."

Wu Xufan quickly turned and left.

Ye Qichi then returned to Xiao Jinxing's bedside.

At this moment, Bai Mowan was sitting on the bed, just anxiously watching Xiao Jinxing, not holding his hand incessantly as before.

It seems that because of her earlier words, Bai Mowan became self-conscious about her behavior.

In fact, it wasn't because she couldn't stand seeing Bai Mowan and Xiao Jinxing being affectionate.

She was just very irritated, when treating patients, by having someone disturbing her at her side.

Most doctors, actually, are temperamental.

She was no exception.

At this moment, seeing Ye Qichi return, Bai Mowan didn't say anything.

Their relation, because of the few words argued earlier, felt even more estranged and kept more distance.

Ye Qichi actually never thought about the necessity of getting along with Bai Mowan; even initially when she had transmigrated into the book, she thought she could make friends with the female lead, but after giving it some thought, she knew it wasn't likely. After all, their interests couldn't align; her being the Princess was a threat to Bai Mowan.

Of course, Ye Qichi didn't insist.

When it came to making friends, it always happened naturally.

Like with Gu Xingchuan, like with Xie Ruotong.

They quietly accompanied Xiao Jinxing, just like that.

About the time it takes an incense stick to burn.

Outside the great hall came Wu Xufan's voice, "Princess."

Ye Qichi then walked towards the entrance of the great hall.

Wu Xufan handed a box to Ye Qichi, asking, "Is this it?"

He was surprised when he had sent a confidant to retrieve it.

What is this thing?

"That's right," Ye Qichi affirmed, "Now, I have another favor to ask of you."

"Speak directly," Wu Xufan naturally would not refuse.

Ye Qichi glanced around.

To the left and right, a lot of people were indeed stationed.

Palace maids, eunuchs, and many guards.

Too many cooks spoil the broth.

Wu Xufan naturally understood at a glance.

His expression darkened, "You all may leave now."

At this moment, the Emperor had granted Wu Xufan significant power in the palace, naturally, all the guards obeyed Wu Xufan's command.

At his order, they quickly left.

The entrance of the great hall was left with just the two of them.

Ye Qichi whispered, "I'm going to perform surgery on Xiao Jinxing, and I don't want people around. This could affect my operation, so I hope you can have someone detain all the Imperial Physicians to prevent them from disturbing my surgery."
