The king turned around.

Xiao Heng smiled.

The smile was too much.

In a second, he switched to his weakened, pale, dying state, as if he couldn’t raise the corner of his lips: "You take care too."

"Hmm." The king nodded with a complex expression, placing his hands behind his back, and left Qilin Palace with Zhang Dequan and the nanny holding the little princess.

...

Gu Jiao stayed in the ICU until dawn before coming out.

In the second half of the night, she sat on a chair, fell asleep at the bedside, and when she woke up, the National Master was already gone.

Two dead warriors resumed guarding outside the iron door. Seeing Gu Jiao come out, they reacted faintly, as if she, like the king, could freely enter and exit here.

"What did the National Master tell you?" Gu Jiao asked the two.

One of them said, "The National Master said, besides him and Young Master Xiao, no third person could enter."

Gu Jiao made a sound of understanding and muttered, "That’s more like it."

Xiao Heng opened the door of the house and walked towards Gu Jiao: "Are you tired? I had some porridge prepared, go have some."

"Alright." Gu Jiao went towards his house with him, "Where is Jingkong?"

The two dead warriors were right behind them, Xiao Heng pondered his words: "He went to school, his sister came to pick him up."

This was telling Gu Jiao that little Jingkong had Gu Chengfeng with him, and everything was safe.

Gu Jiao felt relieved, and went to Xiao Heng’s side to drink a bowl of porridge.

Though it was summer, because she had expended her energy, she still had a good appetite, and she ate a big meat bun.

"Where is the little princess?" she asked.

Xiao Heng replied: "She went back to the palace with the king. Additionally, it seems the king reinstated my mother’s identity as a princess."

Xiao Heng may not have attended the morning court, but the king personally addressed Shangguan Yun as the Third Princess this morning, so it ought to be correct.

Gu Jiao nodded in satisfaction: "That’s wonderful."

After paying such a high price, it certainly wasn’t just the dethroning of the Crown Prince.

First restore the identity of the princess, the next step is to plot for the position of the Crown Princess.
