”Do you have to go this far?” Zi Ye asked Wen Guang worriedly. Thinking about how the Prince Zhan had pounced towards his sword and lost so much blood, Zi Ye was so terrified that he trembled, ”I've followed the Prince for so many years, this is the first time I've seen the Prince bleed this much.”

”Your highness has always been a person who does great things. If you want to do something, then do it. Your highness is demanding of yourself.” From his words, Wen Guang also admired the Duke.

”Wen Guang, you should have done a great deed this time. With this trick, I'm afraid that there will be an imperial concubine in the prince's mansion very soon.” Zi Ye said somewhat happily to Wen Guang. It was unknown if it was because she had done a meritorious deed for Wen Guang, or because she was happy for him due to the fact that the Duke's Palace was about to have an imperial concubine.

Wen Guang was the son of Old General Wen from the border region, and had always been stationed at the border region with Old General Wen. He had also not returned to Shangjing City for many years, and had not stayed by Prince Zhan's side for a very long time.

Wen Guang was in the position of a strategist after all. Although he didn't have any experience in love, he didn't have any experience in chasing women. He had also rushed from the border to Shangjing City, and had come to Shangjing City in hopes of doing a great service for Old General Wen to see, so Wen Guang could only muster up the courage to come up with a plan for the Prince to act out.

It was just that she did not expect that the prince would actually be willing to put forth his capital and directly knocked his body against Zi Ye's blade. Zi Ye was so frightened that he almost threw his blade on the spot.

”As long as the ending is good, then it's fine. As long as the ending is good, then it's fine.” Wen Guang comforted his heart that was filled with shock.

”Wang...” Prince … ”Zi Ye was scared out of his wits, the Prince Zhan actually walked into the Duke's Mansion by himself, covered in blood. Look at that, the cut on Zi Ye's body was still faintly bleeding as he laid outside. Zi Ye lowered his head and looked at the road that Prince Zhan had taken.

Zi Ye's heart skipped a beat. ”Your Royal Highness …” Should I call a doctor? ”

”Go and call Elder Xiu over. This King has something to ask him.” Prince Zhan's voice was a little hoarse, and her emotions gave off a rare feeling of loneliness.

Zi Ye replied somewhat dryly, ”Your Royal Highness, Elder Xiu has gone for a swim. When I heard this morning that the Prince had used his wandering status to invite the Miss Nangong to the Duke's Palace, the Elder Xiu had just said ”useless trash” and then, he had really packed his bags and went for a swim. ”

Prince Zhan looked at Wen Guang who had been scheming from the beginning till the end. When Wen Guang was almost unable to bear his gaze, Prince Zhan said coldly, ”Tomorrow, you can go back to the border.”

With that, the Prince Zhan didn't seem to have any more emotions, he turned and prepared to leave. Wen Guang knew that if he failed, he wouldn't just return to the border and with a ”putong”, he kneeled on the ground, begging with complete sincerity, ”Your Highness, please give me another chance to atone for my deeds. I have a premonition that I will succeed this time, and let Your Highness successfully marry the Crown Prince!”

Prince Zhan originally did not want to bother with Wen Guang, but after Wen Guang said he could succeed in marrying her … Prince Zhan's somewhat depressed heart instantly relaxed after hearing this sentence, as if it was already that day, and she succeeded in marrying him.

”One last chance. If I don't succeed, I'll guard the border forever.” Prince Zhan threw down his words and returned to his own courtyard without raising his head.

Prince Zhan locked himself in his room for a few days, so Zi Ye and Wen Guang weren't too worried about his injuries. Prince Zhan's martial arts were unfathomable, and since he was half a doctor himself, he would naturally take care of his injuries.

Moreover, the Prince never drank any medicine, even if he found a doctor, it would be useless. The Prince Zhan's Mansion always had the best external medicinal powder.

In the past few days, Prince Zhan had locked himself in his room and treated his injuries. He did not even leave his room, let alone the morning court.

In the imperial court, the emperor had not mentioned anything, but the ministers naturally did not dare to discuss anything publicly.

However, there were many rumors circulating among the people. Some people said that the Prince Zhan went to the border to reform everything, expand farming, and increase their business dealings with the central and eastern borders. They made use of the monopoly of some of the powers there, causing them to rush to the Shangjing to assassinate someone.
