"Also, ask someone to carry a sedan. I want to take the queen back."
"Yes." Wei Qian nodded, then turned around and went out to do errands.
Yun Jingchu and his party went to the outer room, and then tied Xuanyuan Xi and her daughter to chairs...
Soon, Wei Qian came in with two young eunuchs, bowed and said: "The sedan has been found."
"Prince Kang, Brother Jiu, Qu Ying and I will send the new queen back and see if His Majesty is back. Please wait here for a while." Yun Jingchu turned to Wu Jiu and Xuanyuan Lin.
"Okay, go ahead."
"Princess Kang, please."
Wu Jiu and Xuanyuan Lin said at the same time.
Yun Jingchu had people carry the red tree to Kunning Palace. Along the way, although everyone was surprised, they all bowed to Yun Jingchu respectfully without saying much.
After arriving at Kunning Palace, he put Hongzhu on the bed and asked Qu Ying to watch over him. Yun Jingchu then arrived at the imperial study room...
The lights in the imperial study were on, and Li Yuan was seen guarding the door from a distance. When he saw Yun Jingchu coming, Li Yuan came to greet him.
"Is His Majesty back?" Yun Jingchu asked in a low voice.
"..." Li Yuan shook his head with a sad face.
Yun Jingchu calculated the time and found that if there was nothing else to do, it would take about an hour to get from the palace to Huguo Temple. Now it was almost an hour since Li Dao and others left.
Yun Jingchu decided to wait here for a while.
Xu Shidao had given instructions, and after hearing Yun Jingchu's words to wait for the sword to come back, Li Yuan took Yun Jingchu up the imperial steps and stood outside the door of the imperial study.
Time passed by, and just when Yun Jingchu was hesitating whether to leave first and let Li Yuan pass the message, the people in the imperial study room were opened from inside...
"Jing Chu?" Dao wearing a dragon robe walked out.
Yun Jingchu watched Dao come out with surprise on his face. He didn't realize when Dao came back or how he entered the room.
"Hongzhu is fine... Also, Xuanyuan Xi was caught... He is hiding in the palace of Emperor Xian and Concubine... Are you okay?" Yun Jingchu reported the good news a little incoherently.
Dao's face was also filled with joy, "Really? Everything went smoothly on my end."
After saying that, Dao blinked and said with a hint of doubt, "Prince Xian?"
Hearing this, a flash of realization flashed in Dao's eyes.
"I will take you to see Hongzhu first. Then I will take you to see Xuanyuan Xi and Princess Xian." Yun Jingchu said as he walked down the imperial steps.
"Okay." Wu Jiu nodded and followed Yun Jingchu down the imperial steps.
However, soon, his eyes sharpened, he took a step forward, looked at the clothes on Yun Jingchu's left arm that were torn by a sword and stained red with blood, and said in shock: "Jingchu, are you injured?"
Yun Jingchu took a look at the wound on his hand, then smiled and said, "It's okay, it's a small injury. I've already applied medicine."
"That means it hasn't been bandaged yet, right? I'll have someone bandage it for you now." After Dao finished speaking, he waved to Li Yuan to come forward.
"Okay, we are outside the imperial study now. I shouldn't stay here for too long. Let's go see Hongzhu as soon as possible. It won't be too late to bandage it when we get to Kunning Palace."
Dao hesitated for a moment, then called for a chariot, and the two of them got on it respectively.
"Kunning Palace, hurry!" Dao ordered in a deep voice.
The chariot almost flew all the way to Kunning Palace. Dao jumped off the chariot first and ordered the two palace maids to take Hongzhu to bandage the wound. Then, at Yun Jingchu's urging, he went to Hongzhu's palace.
