Your Highness's Beloved Medical-skilled Princess novel Chapter 28

Yuan Qingling figured out something wasn’t right from his expression.

“You’re the target? You were on the Glory Tower?”

Yu Wenhao didn't answer. He sat down slowly and looked at Lucky's poor look, he had fury surging up inside him.

"The mastermind plans to kill two birds with one stone. Both my grandfather and I will be trapped," Yu Wenhao sneered.

After a short silence, Yuan Qingling looked at him and said, “Even if His Majesty isn’t affected, I’m afraid you’ll still be trapped, Your Highness. It’s a very strange accident. His Majesty, the Emperor, will sure investigate it. If so, Your Highness, you can be in serious trouble. Your father may not blame you, but your grandfather will certainly be disappointed in you.”

Yuan Qingling actually didn’t say the last sentence aloud.

It was that it would be impossible for Yu Wenhao to be the crowned prince.

Yu Wenhao remained silent for a long time. With a frown, his eyes were as cold as ice.

He seemed very scary like that, and Yuan Qingling didn’t dare to bother him.

In fact, she had no interest in those complicated schemes.

However, as Yu Wenhao’s wife, she would be affected, so she still asked, “Um, in addition to you, who else was on the Glory Tower?”

Yu Wenhao abruptly raised his head and said harshly, “What are you implying?”

“Chu Mingcui!” Yuan Qingling blurted it out.

“Shut your mouth!” Yu Wenhao got angry. “Don’t be ridiculous.”

Yuan Qingling had no intention of arguing against him right when he was mad. She sat by Lucky, stroking its fur, and said in a flat voice, “Your Highness, go to see His Majesty now. After His Majesty wakes up, your father will surely give an order to do a thorough investigation. I think you better be there.”

Yu Wenhao left, wearing a cold face.

Staring at Lucky, Yuan Qingling let out a long sigh. Since someone wanted to harm Lucky, she alone wouldn’t be able to protect him. The mastermind could easily force her out and kill Lucky. The only chance for Lucky to survive is to stay with the Retired Emperor.

She wrapped Lucky in a brocade quilt, carried it up, and went to the Universe Palace.

It was the Retired Emperor who ordered to do a thorough investigation about Lucky’s accident.

The Retired Emperor was very clear about Lucky's habits. Lucky was afraid of heights. Its legs even trembled when it went down the stone ladder. It was impossible to go up to the Glory Tower or jump down from it.

Because of that, once the Retired Emperor woke up, he gave an order to carry out a thorough investigation. After Emperor Mingyuan came and learned the situation, he got furious too and ordered the young eunuch who was responsible for taking care of Lucky to be flogged twenty times.

The person responsible for the thorough investigation was Gu Si, the Deputy Head of Imperial Guards.

There weren’t many people in the Universe Palace, so the oral confession was soon finished.

All testimonies targeted Yu Wenhao.

Someone witnessed that it was Yu Wenhao who carried Lucky to the Glory Tower.

“Summon Prince Wenhao!” Emperor Mingyuan looked very bleak.

As soon as Yu Wenhao arrived, he heard the groan of Emperor Mingyuan.

He had a premonition. Before Gu Si came, he strode inside.

In the room, Prince Rui, Prince Wenqing, Prince Wenjun, and other princes were all gathered. The Queen and Chu Mingcui were standing beside the Queen Mother. The Retired Emperor was sitting half upright on the bed. No one could tell his mood from his expression. Eunuch Chang was holding a teacup by the bed.

“Your Highness!” Gu Si stepped forward with mixed emotions. “Did you bring Lucky to the Glory Tower today?”

Yu Wenhao was silent for a while, then slowly nodded. “Yes.”

Upon hearing that, Emperor Mingyuan was mad. “Why did you bring Lucky to the Glory Tower?”
