When Liu Guiren mentioned these things, he still felt infinite regret in his heart.

If she had known that there would be danger in Xiangguo Temple, she would not have let the Eighth Prince come in alone to pray for blessings no matter what.

As a result, the emperor's health has not improved, and the living eighth prince is gone.

"It's all my fault. If I had stopped the Eighth Prince at that time, there would be nothing I have done now!"

The voice of Liu Guiren's speech was full of self-blame. Thinking about the reason why everything happened now was entirely because he was too careless.

When she was in the palace before, she never let the eighth prince leave her sight no matter when.

Why did he let him burn incense and pray for blessings alone when he arrived at Xiangguo Temple?

Seeing that she was so guilty, Shen Qingxi couldn't help but comfort her with a few words.

"You can't blame you completely. If others are determined to plot against you, they will definitely try their best to succeed!"

Guiren Liu also understood this point. She sighed and continued to talk.

"I took the guards and almost searched the entire Xiangguo Temple, but I couldn't find the eighth prince's trace. In desperation, I had to leave some guards to continue searching at Xiangguo Temple, and I'll go back to the royal palace to wait for news."

She was the concubine of Emperor Longzong, and she could not stay outside without any special things.

Even if Emperor Longzong would not deliberately ask her about such things, Concubine Liu would still abide by those rules.

Shen Qingxi sat there quietly, from time to time when Liu Guiren was excited, patted the back of her hand to relieve her emotions.

When Liu Guiren thought of what happened that day, even though several days had passed, there was still fear in his eyes.

"I waited in the palace until midnight, and there was no news about the eighth prince. Just as I was hesitating whether to tell the emperor, I was suddenly thrown into the window and stabbed straight onto the head of the bed. There was a letter on the dagger."

While speaking, Concubine Liu looked at Shen Qingxi deeply, "Please wait for me here."

Shen Qingxi nodded and watched Guiren Liu leave, her brows also frowned tightly.

After a while, Concubine Liu came to the hall again with a small brocade box.

"I don't know who gave me the letters, all of them are inside. Please take a look at the princess."

Concubine Liu put the brocade box in front of Shen Qingxi, and he sat on the chair there, looking out the door with a sad face.

"I don't know how the Eighth Prince is doing now. I'm really worried every day."

Shen Qingxi hesitated for a moment and opened the brocade box. She saw two letters inside. She didn't say anything, but just looked up at the nobleman Liu who was staring out of the door in a daze.

It seemed as if he felt Shen Qingxi's eyes. Guiren Liu did not look back but said lightly, "I have received two letters from them in the past two days. The princess will understand everything after reading it."

Shen Qingxi nodded, took out a letter from it, opened it and looked at it for a few seconds and realized that this was the second one that Guiren Liu said. She put it down and picked up another one.

It says that the Eighth Prince was captured by them. If Concubine Liu wants to keep her son alive, she must do what they said.
