The one who arrived was a veteran, who had been the cultivation master of the princes and princesses of Xiajiang.

After receiving an appointment from his father, the eldest prince Summer immediately followed him to the place where his father was.

Looking at the direction they were heading, it seemed to be in a garden, but it was impossible to guess the specifics.

In comparison, Xia Jiang and the other eight brothers were relatively lucky, while the brothers and sisters who were waiting outside and could not enter were undoubtedly anxious and inexplicable, and could only wait silently, without any information to follow.

For the rest of the day, these eight people were still waiting silently, silently waiting in this cultivation place that was also surrounded by guards.

Almost more than ten minutes passed, and the eldest prince did not come back, but it was the veteran who came and sent a message to the second prince Xia Lei.

Immediately afterwards, he didn't expect Xia Jiang, and actually summoned them one by one, until in the end, he was the only one left in this training ground, and finally summoned him to the ninth prince to enter.

Following the old general, Xia Jiang soon entered the garden, and through the place of bursts of flowers, Xia Jiang saw that in this garden, there was a hidden basement at some point, and the mechanism was under the big tree.

The tree turned like a gate, and he entered alone, under the watchful eyes of the veteran.

Step by step, Xia Jiang is not as good as this secret underground space.

As soon as he walked into it, Xia Jiang smelled bursts of incense, and he immediately knew that this was an extremely noble medicine, which spread in the air, and as long as people breathed, they could calm their minds and greatly assist their cultivation.

When he came to the bottom of the stairs, he swept his gaze and found that the light was dim, not as bright as he had imagined, but all of them were set with precious stones, like a palace in the daylight.

With strong intuition and perception, Xia Jiang went deeper and deeper, scanning around, but there was no sign of his father or brothers gathering here.

However, when he came to the center of an open area, and was about to look around, he only felt a tremor on the ground, and the area he was in actually sank again!

At this moment, he heard his father's voice below: "Little Jiu......"

Just hearing the voice, Xia Jiang only felt a little bad, and his father's voice seemed a little weak.

When the mechanism landed, Xia Jiang stepped out, and saw that not far away, his father was holding a bed full of strange crystals, and the whole person was extremely haggard.

"It's!"

Seeing this scene, Xia Jiang could no longer hold his inner composure, and he couldn't believe it.

"Xiao Jiu, come here......"

Xia Xiong opened his mouth a little weakly, and his gaze swept towards Xia Jiang a little dimly.

Through Xia Xiong's gaze at this moment, Xia Jiang couldn't imagine the majestic posture of the other party killing the horse Shenlong in seconds that day, it was like two people.

"Father, what's wrong with you?" Xia Jiang couldn't believe it.

Xia Xiong seemed to know that Xia Jiang would be so nervous, but he stretched out his hand to stop it, and then said slowly: "This is my father's carelessness, and he was attacked by assassins, so it's okay...... Xiao Jiu, my father called you over, mainly to let you participate in the investigation of one thing, among your many brothers, my father knows that there is a suspicious identity, not the king's own ......"

Then, Xia Xiong actually said in one breath something that shocked Xia Jiang one after another.

The fact that his father actually encountered an assassin in the palace is not trivial, and what is even more terrifying is that among his many brothers, there is actually one person who is not his father, which is like a time bomb, and the hidden danger is huge!

After thinking about it for a while, Xia Jiang suddenly couldn't help but think of the princesses, if any prince is unknown, then there must be someone suspicious among the princesses, after all, it is his own son, if there is an abnormality, it must be a little unusual as a mother, and there may be something involved.

And at the thought of implicating the princess, Xia Jiang felt more and more unbearable, because if this was the case, wouldn't it mean that someone cuckolded his father?

Although he thought so, Xia Jiang didn't dare to ask in person, so he nodded silently and agreed.

"Xiao Jiu, there are other brothers of yours involved in this matter, but my father can't tell you who you are for the time being, don't be suspicious of each other, and don't trust too much, so it's up to you, if you can find any clues, you must tell them as soon as possible, and your father will definitely reward you......."

His father's explanation kept spinning in Xia Jiang's mind, and along with it, he quickly walked out of this underground space.

And now, Xia Jiang can understand why his brothers haven't gone back to the training ground, obviously they have all received secret orders and have already started to act.

"Listening to the meaning of my father's words, it is obvious that only a few people, or even only two people, including him, are involved in this investigation mission, that is, the other brothers are doing other things?......"

Xia Jiang returned to his Nine Kings' Mansion and pondered silently on the way.

Returning to the Nine Kings Mansion was just his habit, he was used to thinking about things in his back garden, but when he came to the Nine Kings Mansion, he found that it had completely changed, and it had become a whole botanical garden, all of which were planted with high-grade and rare materials, so that he could hardly recognize them.

When the Nine Kings Mansion was handed over, he thought that it would be for his younger brothers and sisters to live in, but he didn't expect it to be like this, and he really secretly cultivated these high-grade and rare materials.

As he entered, he was somewhat relieved to find that a space in his back garden had not been forcibly altered, and that his original red wood seeds were still planted, but their qualities seemed to have been enhanced.

Being able to have the feeling of being familiar to Xia Jiang was satisfied, and he immediately entered it, and also came to the cultivation area that he was still familiar with, and immediately meditated.

Before proceeding with a series of actions, he had to think about it and put his mind into a state of absolute clarity.

"Big Brother Summer...... Second brother Xia Lei ...... Summer Fire ......"

Xia Jiang checked them one by one in his mind, and with intuition and impressions, he judged which person might not be his own brother.

First of all, he analyzed it by his appearance, and he found it a little difficult, because many princesses are all beauties, each with their own merits and different appearances, if you want to judge, you have to start from the princess, and you have to rule out that these brothers do not have disguise techniques, and they have long let themselves be fake in order to prevent being discovered.

Thinking of this, his eyes lit up, and he thought of a person, his mother, Concubine Qin!

Xia Jiang then pondered for a while before standing up and coming to his mother's place.

Concubine Qin has become accustomed to being alone, spending time with a few subordinates every day by planting and reading, although she often misses Xia Jiang in her heart, she can only hope that he will come back as soon as possible, and she does not dare to have any extravagant hopes.

Now that the palace has obviously changed, like the other princesses, she also doesn't know what happened, but she misses Xia Jiang more every day, and feels uneasy at the same time.

On this day, as usual, while planting all kinds of flowers and herbs, she made rounds up and down, hoping to see some clues and understand what was going on outside, but found nothing.

It was just then that he suddenly saw a figure walking in from outside the huge courtyard.

"Jiang'er!"

Seeing Xia Jiang's figure, Concubine Qin was startled, her hands shook, and several pieces of medicinal herbs suddenly fell to the ground.

Xia Jiang saw his mother's expectant eyes and the momentary restrained joy, which made him tremble in his heart, and an irrepressible sadness surged in.

With a single arrow step, the whole person was like a phantom, and he came to his mother in an instant.

"Mother!"

Xia Jiang had prepared a lot of things to say, but at this moment, he couldn't help himself at all, there were too many things in his mother's eyes that suffocated him, making him speechless for a while.

"Jiang'er, it's good for you to come back! I miss my mother!" Concubine Qin hugged her son, her eyes slightly moist.

At this time, the son can come back, which is the greatest comfort for Concubine Qin and many princesses.

"Mother, are you okay?" Xia Jiang let go of his embrace and quickly looked at his mother, but he didn't find any problems, so he put his mind at ease.

Seeing her son's nervousness, Concubine Qin was relieved, but soon frowned and said, "By the way, how did you come back?......" Obviously, Xia Jiang's sudden return home, this kind of unusualness made her not feel at ease, and realized that there was something important.

Xia Xiong didn't explain that he couldn't tell his mother about this matter, Xia Jiang immediately told the truth of the matter, and said: "Mother, the child was secretly edicted by his father this time, this matter is not trivial, speaking of which, I am afraid I have to ask my mother to help recall!"

After all, his mother had followed his father for a long time, and she definitely knew more about these princesses than he had over the years, so these were important clues to the birth of each prince and the events before and after.

After receiving Xia Jiang's prompt, Concubine Qin was shocked on the one hand, so she immediately pulled Xia Jiang to an extremely hidden place in the bedroom, and then began to slowly recall.

Xia Jiang had to admire his mother's caution, and it was true that in such an extremely tense moment, everyone could be their enemy, and they had to be extremely cautious.

"Queen, this person always looks childlike on the outside, and people who don't know each other think it's a princess in the palace, but she has a good relationship with the eldest prince, and her appearance is very similar, so she should be the undoubted mother and son!"

Concubine Qin thought slowly, and expressed her impressions and judgments of the queen and the eldest prince in the summer.

Xia Jiang listened silently, and then thought, he had seen the queen several times, and the other party's image was too distinct, like a girl who would never grow up, even if her son Xia Xia had grown up, but she would always be like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child.

Xia Jiang knew that this should be related to a magic weapon that she had cultivated, and it shouldn't be that there was something wrong with her brain, otherwise she would have been abolished by her father a long time ago.

It may seem like the queen is very problematic, but in fact, as his mother said, it should be the one who must be fine.

"Concubine De is as her name suggests, and she teaches her son well, she teaches the second prince Xia Lei strictly, and she is also very cautious and humble, almost taking it as a belief, she should not be able to hide it, and Xia Lei is even more imaginary with your father, but it doesn't seem like there is any suspicious ...... identity"

"Well, speaking of which, this concubine ......"

Xia Jiang listened silently, and when he heard his mother talk about the mother of the third prince, Concubine Hui, her expression changed slightly.

"What's the matter, Concubine Hui and the third prince Xia Huo, what's wrong?" Feeling the change in his mother, Xia Jiang immediately recalled it, and thought back to see if there was a problem with the two.
