Under the gaze of everyone, Fang Jinshi had no choice but to sit beside the Xixia King as he requested.

The Western Xia King saw that she was intelligent and smiled in satisfaction, nodding.

Fang Jinxiu didn't want this awkward atmosphere to linger around her, so she took the initiative to change the subject and ask what she was most curious about.

"Your Majesty, isn't today the Princess Consort's birthday feast Why don't we see the Princess Consort"

The Western Xia king smiled without speaking. A eunuch serving him stepped forward to explain things to Fang Jinshiu.

"According to Lord Huifang, the eldest princess hasn't come out in many years, and she might be a little uncomfortable for a while."

"Your Majesty has already sent someone to fetch him."

Is it that the Western Xia King wouldn't let the Princess come out, or that the Princess didn't want to come out

Who would believe this

"You don't believe me, Lady Fang" The King of Xixia stated bluntly, her heart's desire exposed. Fang Jinshu was stunned. Had she been brainwashed by the King of Xixia's previous actions Could he have read her mind so easily, exposing her innermost thoughts before an emperor

"It's not that I see you don't believe me, it's that someone reminded me today that the Princess hasn't been in the palace for many years. Since I suddenly want to hold a birthday banquet for her, I haven't actually asked for her consent."

"If Sir Fang has a way to bring the person out for me, I can credit you with a feat and bestow upon you a reward."

"Your Majesty," Fang Jinxiu exclaimed, pointing at herself in astonishment, "are you asking me to summon the Princess"

"Yes, you don't want to"

Of course she agreed. After all, seeing the Princess Consort was one of her reasons for coming to the palace today. She had a few questions she wanted to ask the Princess Consort and get some clarity on.

I didn't think opportunities to be alone like this would be so easy to come by, but as soon as I arrived, King Xixia presented me with one.

It's hard not to make her feel like this is a trap.

Fang Jinshi always had a feeling that there was crisis looming.

The Western Xia King kept the eldest princess under extremely strict guard. If he missed this chance, he estimated that she would never have another opportunity to speak privately with the eldest princess again.

Even if it's a trap, she has to take the risk.

"Serving Your Majesty is my duty, how could I ever refuse"

"I shall go at once."

The Xixia King nodded in satisfaction, his gaze following Fang Jinyu's departing figure. The moment she disappeared outside the hall, the smile in the Xixia King's eyes vanished, replaced by a cold indifference.

Hersheng stepped forward, “Father, since you suspect the other party, why not let your son kill him.”

Hersheng's expression now was completely different from when he was with Fang Jinshi. There wasn't a hint of naivety on his face.

When the Western Xia king woke up and saw that his son was alive, he knew this boy was different.

He will be stronger than all his elder brothers, and the Western Xia King intends to cultivate him as his heir.

The news of Hellie's death reached Xixia, and the king, heartbroken over the loss of his son, realized something profound.

Daxi must be destroyed, otherwise, no matter which son of his inherits Xixia, this country will become the greatest enemy of Xixia.

And that's not to mention the fact that there's also the blood feud between him and Daxixi.

According to his youngest son, after leaving Xixia, he was captured by human traffickers from Daxi and suffered all kinds of inhumane torture before being sold to a wealthy family as a slave.

That household was none other than the mansion of Da Xi Wu Dinghou Zong Yu.

Emperor Daxixi did not trust Marquis Wuding, and had his entire family confined to the palace. He used this as leverage to force Marquis Wuding to lead his troops to defend the border.

He managed to escape the chaos and encountered Fang Yu at the border of Xixia. At the time, he was near death and this physician saved him. Hearing that he was also coming to the capital, he temporarily made him his assistant.

Later, about the affairs in Wangdu, the King of Xixia just needs to send someone to inquire around.

Although the Western Xia king didn't fully believe his son's words, he didn't expose him.

It doesn't matter how Hellie came back, as long as he still wants the position of King of Xixia, he won't be on the same side as the people of Daxixi.

And now what he had to do was teach his son how to be a qualified emperor. The first thing was, an emperor could never have true friends.

"Do you want to kill him"

"Father, if you wish for his life, I shall be your blade."

The Western Xia King burst into laughter, clapping Herleith on the shoulder with force.

"As a prince, you shouldn't casually mention murder. You're not a butcher."

"It's been a while since you returned to the capital. Don't you have a single reliable person by your side"

Hellie pretended not to understand the subtext of Xixia King's words.

"Ahem, Your Majesty, since you allowed me to enter the court, many people have come to pledge their allegiance to me."

"There are still people."

The Western Xia King shook his head, "How can those crooked melons and cracked gourds work"

"My personal guard, the Tiger Guard, has a total of one hundred and thirty men. I have prepared twenty of the best for you. In the future, they will be at your side, following your orders and protecting your safety."

The emperor's personal guards

A country emperor's personal guard wasn't your average bodyguard. Each one was a top-tier expert, with combat skills that were beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Helle was stunned by his father's generosity, and a question popped into his mind at the same time.

Could it be that Father wants to place someone by his side to monitor his every word and deed

Later, after some thought, he shook his head. Even without the Tiger Guards, there would inevitably be the Emperor's spies around him, and his every word and deed would be reported to his father in full detail.

If it was to monitor him, the Emperor wouldn't have gone to such lengths and given him Tiger Guards.

So, are these people really here to protect his safety

"Your son thanks you, Father!"

Helsing hurriedly knelt down to show his gratitude.

The Western Xia king burst into laughter, causing him to rise. As Herle just stood up, he heard the emperor speak in a low voice:

"The Tiger Guards are very skilled killers."

Herschel broke out in a cold sweat, his heart like an abyss. To outsiders, he was utterly unreadable.

Just like now, he couldn't figure out his father emperor's intention for giving him the Tiger Guards, nor whether he had truly discovered Fang Yu's identity.

No, he had to find a chance to remind Jinxiu Jie that her fake death plan was indeed necessary.

On the other hand, Fang Jinshi's journey went very smoothly.

Under the eunuch's guidance, she quickly arrived at the entrance of a rather secluded and deserted palace. The eunuch also stopped his steps.

"Lord Fang, this is where the Princess resides. Please go in."

The eunuch who led the way was about to leave, and Fang Jinshu hurriedly called him back.

"Wait, Your Honor, this is my first time coming so deep into the palace. I'm not familiar with the paths inside. Won't you come in with me"

The eunuch escort merely turned to her, bowed, and said one last thing.

"His Majesty has instructed that you enter alone."

After speaking, he left without hesitation, his steps even more hurried than when he arrived.

Something's wrong, really wrong.

Fang Jinxiu's sixth sense, which always popped up when she encountered dangerous information, was already on high alert.er's life."“As for you, if you continue to cause trouble and hinder me from treating patients, the blame will be on you when people die. I won't take responsibility.”When the two were speaking, the br...
