"My crown princess, we're innocent! We have never framed the little master. Please look into it..."

"Please show mercy...Please..."

"We are innocent..."

Those tough servants and maids immediately knelt there pledding for themselves down there. Everyone was struggling and crying. They were also surprised when they heard the little master got poisoned. They were all the personal servants and maids of their master. How would they harm the only bloodline left? What good would it bring to them?

"Wait."

Yan Xiaohua's voice suddenly sounded, and those servants and maids all stopped crying.

Then Sikong Yu abruptly turned around, "Are you still trying to defend them?"

Now, he had already been blinded by anger and totally couldn't stay calm to think, so subconsciously he thought Yan Xiaohua still tried to stop him. Ever since they got married, he had never been jealous of any woman. It was not that he wasn't, it was just that his self-dignity wouldn't allow him to fight with someone over a man.

With a helpless light sigh, Yan Xiaohua walked over and gently pressed back in his seat. With an explosion, Sikong Yu totally couldn't think of anything now, his fair and smooth face stained with blush, you couldn't tell whether it was out of anger of shyness now. Yan Xiaohua kind of fell in a daze, but soon forced himself to lower his eyes and make himself composed, saying with his hands patting on his shoulders gently, "Yu, stay calm. Leave it to me. I promise I will find out who is behind all this and never let our son suffer for nothing. Promise me. Stay calm!"

He knew that he only lost his sense because of their son. But this thing was concerned about those personal maids of his wife. If he couldn't handle it properly, someone might make use of it to provoke a war between two kingdoms. Yu's identity was too special. He couldn't make the slightest mistake.

"Ah? Hmm!"

Nodding at him foolishly, Sikong Yu already started to curse himself in the heart for not being able to control himself. Every time, it was like now! As long as Yan Xiaohua was a bit nicer to him, he'd feel so happy like he was going to fly.

"Hehe...rest assured, I will not let you or our son down on this matter."

Throwing him a bright smile, Yan Xiaohua touched his smooth and tender cheek uncontrollably. How long hadn't they slept together? He had no idea and he didn't allow himself to know, or he was afraid he'd soften his heart and might even give up the plan he had persisted for two years, and...

"Hmm, you must find that person. If you can't hold justice for him, I will take him back to my Xi Kingdom and never come back again!"

Talking about their son, Sikong Yu decisively got sobered and said with a rarely firm tone. At any cost, he'd take the revenge for his son! The worst scenario was he brought him back to his Xi Kingdom. As for Yan Xiaohua who couldn't even hold justice for their kid...

he could give him up!

Eyes slightly squinted, Yan Xiaohua had his hands over his shoulder tightened a bit. Apparently it was he who had forced him to be more and more disappointed about him, when hearing him say that, the first one who couldn't afford that kind of possibility was him. If that day really came, could he accept the fact they he'd leave him forever?

"Don't say such words so casually. Change another pot of tea for Yu."

After quite a while, like when they had just been married, Yan Xiaohua flicked his forehead dotingly. While he was in a trance, Yan Xiaohua threw Mammy Qin an eye and then turned to sit back. And when his eyes turned to those maids kneeling there, the warmness was already gone, leaving coldness and heartlessness only. Then he said sternly, "Who did it! Stand out yourself! Don't make me get your interrogated one by one! It's already a fact that my son has been poisoned. Except you who had taken care of him that year, no one else would have had the chance!"
