The Crown Princess watched Mingyue packing her needles into a small leather pouch and thought of something . "Mingyue," she called . "How is the prince?"

"He should be alright . We have to observe him for the night," Mingyue said .

"Were you around when His Majesty visited Prince Lu Wei earlier?" the princess asked hesitantly .

Mingyue looked up and smiled . She seemed to have guessed that the crown princess was going to see her and ask about this matter . "I was . You wanted to know what they were talking about?" Mingyue saw the princess hesitated and continued, "His Majesty allowed me to stay when he meets Prince Lu Wei . "

The princess was surprised as she heard this . "It was not a private conversation?"

Mingyue thought over it for a while before she said, "I was helping the prince with his dressing when the Emperor came in . His Majesty only allowed me and my brother to be around when he met the prince . Elder brother said that the Emperor did not mind if you wanted to know the details of their conversation . That was why he allowed me to stay . "

"What were they talking about?" Princess Lingchen asked after a few seconds of silence . She recalled the Emperor's expression when he showed up at the feast . His Majesty was not too happy .

Mingyue's expression grew serious . She was around both when her brother questioned the prince over the incident and during the Emperor's visit . She knew what was going on with Prince Lu Wei . Then, she spoke in a lower voice, "Prince Lu Wei think that someone led him towards the tiger's area to kill him . According to the prince, it was someone from Qian Rong . "

The princess' gaze flashed with shock . "An assassination attempt?"

Mingyue nodded . "The relationship between Prince Lu Wei and his Crown Prince was not good . They suspected that the Crown Prince might try to harm the prince as he was in Da Cheng . They wanted to blame Da Cheng if anything happened to him . "

"Among the guests' princes, Prince Lu Wei had the worst background," Princess Lingchen mumbled to herself . She had heard of the dispute between the royal siblings of Qian Rong . Prince Lu Wei was born from a concubine outside of the palace and was only brought into the palace when his mother had passed away . While the Qian Rong's ruler favored him due to pity, the others did not like him . After all, no one really knew about his concubine mother .

Princess Lingchen snapped out of her thought and turned to Mingyue . "What did His Majesty say?"

"His Majesty agreed to let Prince Lu Wei stay in this country until he is fully recovering . Da Cheng will provide safety for the prince as long as he is in this country," Mingyue said . "Prince Lu Wei promised that he would not allow Da Cheng to be implicated if anything should happen to him . "

"How is he planning to do that?"

Mingyue shook her head . "I don't know . " She thought for a while and spoke again . "Your Highness, if you're planning to see Prince Lu Wei, I suggest you visit him tomorrow . The prince had lost a lot of blood, and he is now resting . "

Princess Lingchen nodded and stood up . "Very well . I can't be here for too long or else the Empress would be worried . "

"Yang Yun went after Prince Jing; he will come back with the result of his investigation later . But Princess, you still need to be wary of the others Prince Jing might not be the only one who wanted to hurt you . " Mingyue escorted the Princess out of the tent and met Ah Zhen at the entrance . "Ah Zhen, find me immediately if you noticed something wrong . "

"Yes, Physician Jiang," Ah Zhen nodded .

Soon, the Crown Princess and her maidservant returned to the feast . Princess Lingchen swept her gaze around the surrounding and stopped when she saw Prince Jing with Chancellor Chen in a conversation . Prince Jing tilted his head up when he noticed someone was looking at his direction . Their gaze met . For a while, there was a mixture of surprise and confusion in Prince Jing's expression when he saw the Princess . He quickly recovered and smiled .

Princess Lingchen scoffed inwardly at Prince Jing's reaction . She turned her gaze to the Empress and saw the Empress relieved expression . The princess gave her mother a nod before she joined her at the seat . The princes had a duel among themselves as entertainment . Their match seemed to intensify as she returned with each prince were trying to show up their strength in front of the Princess .
