Chapter 2031 - 2033: Don’t Want Xiaoyao to Go Back

Chapter 2031: Chapter 2033: Don’t Want Xiaoyao to Go Back

After entering the room, Yang Ming spoke, "Their skills are very strong. According to my judgment, it should be the Hidden Guard that the Fourth Prince placed by your friend’s side. The Fourth Prince probably knew about the two of you long ago. The reason for taking action at this time to seize the bracelet is probably..."

Xiaoxiao immediately responded, "He doesn’t want Xiaoyao to go back."

Yang Ming nodded, there was only this one answer, absolutely no other.

Acting at this time is partly to prevent You Xueling from returning and partly to remind them that the other party has discovered their weakness.

"What should we do?" Xiaoxiao panicked.

Will the Fourth Prince treat Xiaoyao as a monster? He has always been controlling her, and now, knowing her secret, will she survive?

And herself, she has likely been exposed too. Will the Fourth Prince threaten Xiaoyao and control her because of this?

Her heart is so troubled, she has no idea what to do.

Seeing his wife so anxious, Yang Ming felt bad too. He pulled his wife closer and comforted her, "Don’t worry, things haven’t reached the worst point yet. The Fourth Prince should be a very upright person. From his help in freeing us, we can tell. So let’s not scare ourselves."

Yang Ming could only use these words to comfort Xiaoxiao, though in his heart he had a bad premonition.

Since the Fourth Prince helped them escape and knows his wife’s secret, even if he doesn’t trouble them now, in the future when he attains fame and they meet in court, he might be caught by the Fourth Prince. If the prince demands something, he might not be able to refuse.

However, he didn’t want to tell his wife this. He was afraid she would worry. When the time comes, he was determined to ensure his wife’s safety.

Sure enough, these words improved Xiaoxiao’s mood somewhat. "You’re right, maybe the Fourth Prince is a good person and won’t spread the issue."

Xiaoxiao didn’t think as far as Yang Ming. She thought since the Fourth Prince could bring out the Emperor’s concubine without killing her, perhaps this time he will let them go too, keeping silent!

But even so, Xiaoxiao felt she couldn’t just leave it alone. She feared Xiaoyao would suffer if she returned.

"Husband, what can we do to help Xiaoyao? Her situation is really bad, really bad."

Yang Ming patted his wife’s back, soothing her like a child, while also thinking hard, "Don’t rush, let me think!"

"Okay."

Their brains were working quickly, and suddenly Xiaoxiao spoke, "Husband, I have an idea."

"What is it?"

"Let’s send a message to Prime Minister Sima, saying the Ling Concubine is not dead and is in the hands of the Fourth Prince. Prime Minister Sima will definitely investigate once he hears."

This was the only solution Xiaoxiao could think of. With her and Yang Ming’s strength, they couldn’t even deal with a Hidden Guard, let alone the Fourth Prince.

Before reaching the Fourth Prince, they might already be killed.

The only ones who could counter the Fourth Prince at the moment seemed to be the Sima family.

Xiaoyao once said that even the Emperor feared the power of Prime Minister Sima. He could change her sentence from execution to exile in the Cold Palace, indicating that the Sima family’s power must be considerable.

If they delivered the message, Prime Minister Sima would not let his daughter suffer outside.

If Prime Minister Sima acts, perhaps Xiaoyao could escape her misery.

Now the issue is how to deliver the message to Prime Minister Sima without being seen as a hoax.
