Princess Yingye chased after her on horseback, but as soon as she entered the city, the figure of Xi Tian could no longer be found!
"Come here." Princess Yingye called the guards with a solemn expression, "Go and inform the black cavalry that there will be a lecture in Lingyang Academy today, so we must be on strict guard!"
"Yes." The guard immediately went to deliver the order.
Princess Yingye looked at this relatively quiet street, her expression gloomy several times.
She didn't have to target Xi Tian, but she just felt that she was too mysterious and a little uneasy. Besides, why did Xi Tian want to arrest Xiao Yuan Yuan? Xiao Yuan Yuan was going to be executed in a few days.

The Crown Prince of Dongli Kingdom led the delegation to Nanyi Kingdom in order to learn the profound culture of Nanyi Kingdom, and the place where the culture of Nanyi Kingdom is located is Lingyang Academy.
The next day, several highly respected academicians from the Taixue School of Lingyang College gave lectures to promote the culture of Nanyi Kingdom. Headed by the emperor and the queen mother, almost no one from the royal family and nobles was absent.
The Crown Prince of Dongli Kingdom was also among those invited. The sky was clear and clear early in the morning, and the snow had stopped. In the square of Lingyang College, several academicians took turns giving lectures, debating, quoting classics, and they were all eloquent.
The idiot prince of Dongli Kingdom also clapped his hands and applauded.
The emperor smiled happily and said: "Okay, these academicians today opened my eyes! Queen mother, don't you think so?"
The Queen Mother said happily: "What the Emperor said is that in the past few years, the world has been peaceful, and the Nanyi Kingdom has really splendid culture, with a hundred schools of thought contending."
Although the queen on the side looked confused, she still smiled and said: "It is the emperor who governs the country well."
The emperor glanced at her with a cold expression. If the queen was not indispensable for such an occasion, why would he let her come? It was an eyesore.
"Where's Beiyue?" The emperor's eyes glanced around the table, but he didn't see Huang Beiyue.
The Queen Mother said: "Your Majesty, neither Ying Ye nor Bei Yue is here."
"Oh, Ying Ye didn't come either?" The emperor seemed to realize just then.
The queen's face looked a little ugly. She turned her head and asked Zhanye beside her: "Zhanye, where is Yingye?"
Zhan Ye said: "Today the ninth prince of Beiyao Kingdom returned home, Ying Ye must have gone to see him off."
"Yingye and he grew up together, so it's appropriate to give him a send-off." The Queen Mother smiled. She tilted her head and saw some commotion in the seats below. She frowned and asked, "What's going on there?"
Zhan Ye stood up and took a look, his cold lips pursed slightly: "Someone broke in."
"Who can break in at this time?" The emperor said angrily, "Zhanye, go down and take a look, don't let them cause trouble."
"Yes." Zhanye nodded slightly and was about to go down when a shout suddenly rang out from the commotion below: "Your Majesty, I was wronged. I did not poison the eldest princess!"
The sound was so loud that the lectures of several academicians stopped immediately. There was a silence in the venue, and then everyone started talking.
A man wearing a prison uniform with disheveled hair was held down by the guards and kept shouting that he was wronged.
"Who is making a noise down there? Take him down quickly!" As soon as the Queen Mother's majestic voice came out, the guards no longer dared to neglect and forced the man down.
"Your Majesty! I, Xiao Yuanyuan, are dissatisfied! I did not poison the eldest princess. I am unjustly accused!"
"Stop!" The emperor suddenly stood up, walked to the audience, pointed at the man and asked, "What did you say? Let him go and let him answer!"
The guard did not dare to neglect and immediately let go of his hand. The man in prison clothes knelt on the ground.
