The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Some things cannot yet be spoken aloud.

After all, they involve too much.

"You may withdraw, I need to rest." Xiao Jinxing spoke indifferently.

Wu Xufan was there just to check on Xiao Jinxing's injuries.

Seeing him in good spirits now, and already in the company of a beauty, he had no desire to impose, so he turned and prepared to leave.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly turned back, "I know you only have eyes for General Bai right now, but I think from a fair and impartial standpoint, you should still thank Princess consort Chen."

Xiao Jinxing looked indifferent, "Why should I thank her? For the entire night, it was only Wan'er who cared for me."

And so Wu Xufan just watched Xiao Jinxing.

Watching him intently.

As if what he had just said was a grievous mistake.

"Why are you staring at me like that?!" Xiao Jinxing naturally found Wu Xufan's gaze quite displeasing.

"You say... it was only General Bai taking care of you all night?" Wu Xufan almost thought he had heard wrong at that moment.

"Was it not?" Xiao Jinxing retorted.

When he had woken up, only Bai Mowan had been by his side.

Exhausted and sleepy, she had fallen asleep at the side of his bed.

"Didn't anyone tell you what happened last night?" Wu Xufan asked again, his tone now clearly more sarcastic, "Didn't General Bai tell you?"

His eyes turned towards Bai Mowan.

Bai Mowan felt understandably uncomfortable with Wu Xufan's words.

Indeed, she had not told Xiao Jinxing, nor did she want... to tell him.

She selfishly did not want Xiao Jinxing to know that it was Ye Qichi who had saved him last night.

She didn't know when she had become such a person.

But when the words were on her lips, she still couldn't speak them.

She still didn't want to say them.

"Now that Prince Chen has awakened today, all my attention has been on him, and I forgot to mention last night's events. To me, Prince Chen's well-being is more important, and naturally, I wouldn't dwell too much on other matters." Bai Mowan explained, appearing calm and collected.

Wu Xufan chuckled.

He hadn't seen Bai Mowan as that kind of person before.

Now suddenly, it became so obvious.

Was her heart truly with Xiao Jinxing, or did she deliberately keep Xiao Jinxing in the dark, that it was Ye Qichi who had saved him last night?

Fortunately.

He was always the type who loved to address injustices.

If Bai Mowan wouldn't speak, he would reveal it.

To clearly tell Xiao Jinxing who really had saved him last night.

Just as he was about to speak that moment.

"His Majesty arrives, the esteemed Imperial Concubine Shu arrives!"

At the entrance of the great hall, suddenly the voices of the Palace Attendants announcing rang out.

All present quickly adopted an attitude of reverence.

At the same time, the screen in front of them was also taken away.

Ye Qichi had been dozing on the couch, but upon hearing the commotion, hastily got off the couch.

Then everyone went forward to greet Xiao Zhanping.

"Your humble subject greets Your Majesty."

The room instantly filled with people kneeling.

Xiao Zhanping quickly said, "Everyone, rise."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The crowd got up, standing respectfully.

"We have heard that Prince Chen has awakened, is it true?" Xiao Zhanping asked excitedly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Prince Chen awoke today at the hour of Chen, he has just finished his morning meal," an Imperial Physician quickly replied.

Xiao Zhanping hurriedly walked over to Xiao Jinxing, very visibly joyful and excited.

"My son pays respect to His Majesty..." Xiao Jinxing saw His Majesty approaching and was about to get off the bed to salute.

"You have suffered grave injuries, and now is the time for you to recuperate. You mustn't move about carelessly, no need for formalities," Xiao Zhanping hastily interjected.

He even moved forward to personally support Xiao Jinxing, preventing him from rising.

"My son thanks His Majesty for his concern, my body is no longer in grave danger, and with a few days of recuperation, I shall recover fully," Xiao Jinxing answered.

"That certainly puts Our mind at ease," Xiao Zhanping let out a sigh of relief, "We did not sleep last night, fearful of any mishaps befalling you. It's good that all is well now."

"My son has caused father to worry."

"Xing'er, you have saved Our life this time, We will certainly reward you handsomely."

"Saving His Majesty is my duty," he replied.

"It's not just you, but also Princess consort Chen, the Prince Consort, General Bai, all have made meritorious contributions in this rescue, and We will reward all generously!" Xiao Zhanping declared loudly.

Having dealt with the Empress and with Xiao Jinxing no longer in mortal danger, Xiao Zhanping was naturally in high spirits.

"Eunuch Mu," Xiao Zhanping called to a servant by his side.

"This servant is here," Eunuch Mu immediately knelt on the ground.
