Just as they were following Pei Yuanfeng's deputy general, I suddenly asked, "Where is Your Highness?"

Immediately, the people stopped.

I walked forward in three steps and frowned and said, "Why didn't I see His Royal Highness?"

“…”

"And there is also the Empress Hepeng and the Second Prince, where are the others?"

The news that came from Xichuan before has been said that Pei Nianshen’s plan to enter Xishan Academy failed to come true. He was turned away by Nan Zhenyi, so he should come back with them. Why didn’t he see him in the crowd? Liu Li and Pei Nianyun, and I didn’t see them either.

When I heard this question from me, several young concubines and the palace maids and eunuchs around me immediately showed uneasy expressions.

I looked at them, but none of them spoke. I hurriedly walked to Yang Jinqiao. Her rank here was the highest. It seemed that it was also the time to enter Sichuan to avoid disaster, including the head of the director who left Sichuan and went to Xi'an Prefecture. She should be the one who knew the most.

I asked, "Empress Ning, why didn't the Crown Prince be with you?"

Yang Jinqiao was silent for a moment, and was about to speak when someone was already saying coldly, "Yan Qingying, do you still need to ask this? You guys from Xichuan will ask us what they did?"

I turned my head and saw Lu Xinrong and the others looking at me coldly.

I frowned: "What does this mean?"

"What does it mean?" She glanced at me with the corner of her eyes: "Speaking of it, aren't you the one from Xishan Academy? The people in that academy have also listened to your Yan family. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was detained by them. Isn't it your idea?"

"What?!"

I looked at her in surprise - His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, was detained?

I hurriedly walked up to her: "What do you mean? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was detained? Who was detained?"

Zhu Fanghua next to him immediately said, "Don't pretend. We are all in Xichuan now, and what we want to do is not your word. Humph, poor Prince, when the emperor was so kind to Fu Badai, he went to greet him personally and asked the prince to take him as his teacher. His Royal Highness once called you "Aunt Qing" and said, "Who knows what kind of academy you will do such a thing behind your back!"

Looking at their disgusting expressions, while the others, Wen Sisi and Pang Yan, were also frowning silently and frowned without saying anything.

I turned to look at Yang Jinqiao: "Empress Ning, is this true?"

“…”

"His Prince Crown Prince really been detained by them?"

Yang Jinqiao was silent for a while, and then said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince was rejected by the people in the academy. The imperial edict was just around the corner. We were all ready to leave, but Your Highness the Crown Prince still wanted to make his last effort to talk to the owner of the academy. But after he entered, he could not come out again."

“…”

"The gate of the academy is closed and we won't let us go in again."

“…”

"So, we have no way."

“…”

I looked back at Qinghan, and his brows also twisted into a lump.

This matter was beyond our expectations.

I thought that Nan Zhenyi refused to accept the prince into the academy just to express his attitude, but I didn't expect that he would detain the prince.

Then this attitude has changed from being "unfriendly" to "hostile"!

I asked, "Where is the Empress He? And the Second Prince, they--"

"She stayed there."

"Why?"

Yang Jinqiao said: "The imperial edict asked us to return to Xi'an Prefecture, but the prince was detained in the academy alone. We were worried after all, and we would always leave alone waiting for news."

I nodded and she said, "I originally wanted to stay, but-"

She looked at the people around me, and I followed the trend and immediately understood that she had the highest grade here. Although there was also a concubine Shun Wen Sisi, Wen Sisi's personality and methods were not tough enough. I don't know how many things would happen along the way. She alone would definitely not be able to control so many concubines, only Yang Jinqiao could hold on to the formation.

And Liu Li... After all, she followed her father to Xishan Academy when she was a child, so she had a previous relationship.

I looked at the beauty of flowers and my heart was messy. After a while, I let out a deep breath: "Okay, I understand."

“…”

"It's good that you're fine."

Yang Jinqiao glanced at me.

At this glance, she seemed to be saying something, but she didn't speak, just smiled faintly, and then said to Pei Yuanfeng: "Young Master, can we go and rest first? Everyone was very tired all the way through the way."

Pei Yuanfeng looked very serious when he heard the prince was detained. At this time, he raised his hand and walked in. He ordered his deputy general: "Bai Fu, please settle them all, and provide them immediately if you need them, and do not neglect them."

Bai Fu responded and went down to do it immediately.

Pei Yuanfeng slowly turned his head and looked at Qinghan and we also looked at him, and none of the three of them spoke.

But I know that at this time everyone's heart is in a state of uproar.

I don’t know how long it took, but I spoke first: “Do you know this?”

Pei Yuanfeng looked at me: "This is what I want to ask you."

“…”

"You don't know either?"

Of course I don't know.

Even this time, it was a bit beyond my expectations that Nan Zhenyi would refuse Nian Shen to enter Xishan Academy, and what I didn't expect was that he would let someone hold the prince in the academy.

Isn’t this clearly provoking Pei Yuanhao?

However, it would be fine if it was another time, but now Pei Yuanhao is ready to enter Xichuan and negotiate with Xichuan's forces. The next step is to prepare for a counterattack. He did this and almost cut off all the road we wanted to see and the future!

Why did he do this?

I turned my head and looked at Qinghan: "What do you think?"

He didn't say anything, just lowered his head, frowned and pondered. When he heard me ask him, he raised his head and looked at me, and said, "We might have to go to Xishan Academy soon."

“…”

He said in a deep voice: "I have to go and talk to Nan Zhenyi."

He and I had discussed on the road before that we would stay at Jianmen Pass for a while, to wait for Pei Yuanhao, and wait for him to catch up and enter Sichuan with us, whether it was to show our attitude or to prevent some things from happening, but now it seems that we may really not be able to wait for him anymore.

If this matter cannot be resolved before he enters Nishikawa, then everything that follows may become a bubble.
