Chapter 17. Little Pitiful Wei Zhao couldn't help but look in the direction of the sound.The slanting sunlight filtered through the willow branches, casting dappled shadows. On the cobblestone palace road, a youth dressed only in a thin, bright yellow silk robe, with a face like jade and eyes like black lacquer, his black hair simply tied with a jade ribbon and obediently resting against the nape of his neck, was now leaning weakly on the uneven stones. One hand was on the ground, the other pressed…-

Chapter 15. Upright Conduct Regarding the final verdict, it turned out that Wei Zhao had worried for nothing.After Emperor Changping expressed his willingness to use his private funds to purchase two luxurious mansions in the most scenic area of the capital's suburbs as compensation, the little Crown Prince, without even batting an eyelid, accepted the Emperor's "kind intentions" and "punishment."It was free real estate.Why refuse free stuff?He was used to being labeled a troublemaker anyway; one…-

Wicked Person Wei Zhao clearly felt the slight tremor in the skin under his fingers when he touched Mu Jue's arm.Although it was faint, how could it escape the detection of Marquis Wei, whose inner force was profound and whose five senses were extremely sharp.Wei Zhao couldn't help but think of the soft, gentle touch of the little Crown Prince when he was close to him.

Chapter 13. Drawing Out the Snake As soon as Wei Zhao left, Gao Jili stealthily crept into the bedroom, "Your Highness, quickly get up and eat your midnight snack."The freshly made mung bean cakes were specially wrapped by him in three layers of oil paper. He carried them in his bosom, and they were still very warm.Behind the bed curtains, Mu Yun, who was concentrating on "feigning unconsciousness," slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were clear and bright. He lazily stretched and yawned before sitting…-

Chapter 12. The Taste of Marrow This time, the killing intent in Wei Zhao's eyes was genuine.The Marquis of Dingbei's wrath, in the northern border, meant rivers of blood and mountains of bones. Even the fiercest invaders would flee at the mere mention of his name. Even with mental preparation, it was not something a youth could easily withstand.Mu Yun looked at those sharp, cold, emotionless phoenix eyes and suddenly felt a hollowness in his heart. He instinctively wanted to break free.However,…-

In just a short while, he had already used up two handkerchiefs.A guard tried to reassure him, "Chief Steward Gao, we're already at the Marquis of Dingbei's residence, why are you even more anxious than when we were on the road?"Gao Jili stamped his foot and sighed, "It's precisely because we've arrived that I'm anxious."His weak, pitiful, and helpless Highness had…-

Chapter 10. Nightclothes After resolving the matters in the front, Wei Zhao went to the rear hall to check on Mu Jue.Through the bed curtains, he could vaguely see the young and handsome face, eyes tightly closed, a faint dark green hue covering his usually pale complexion."Has the poison been identified?"Wei Zhao asked.The Chief Imperial Physician held a cotton swab under his nose, carefully discerning the scent. Hearing the question, he said with a worried expression, "That's precisely what I…-

Chapter 9. Interrogation The spring shirt was thin, and a slight chill immediately seeped through the soft, loose fabric and onto the skin.This method of peeling away layers, like stripping bamboo shoots, tested a person's psychological endurance and willpower.Especially for those Confucian officials who always paid lip service to propriety, righteousness, integrity, and honor, and...Wei Zhao lowered his eyes, staring intently at the youth trapped in his arms....and for these pampered scions of the…-
