At the same time that Ji Changsheng had confirmed the evidence of the Empress' assassination attempt on Ying the Third, Li Changxi had arrived unencumbered at Ying the Third's sleeping palace with Princess Hongye's token.
The entire Imperial Palace was now under the control of Princess Hongye, so Li Changxi didn't even need to use much illusion technique to see Ying the Third, unconscious on the sickbed.
She quickly confirmed Ying the Third's condition:
"Junior brother, Ying the Third isn't faking, he is indeed close to death due to his serious injuries, what's your situation?"
Ji Changsheng shared his situation with Li Changxi.
Then Li Changxi straightforwardly said, "So, Ying the Third played a big role? Even harming himself in the process?"
Ji Changsheng said, "He probably feared that he couldn't fool those around him. The Empress and her lot aren't that naive. Besides, Ying the Third is not one of our disciples of the Illusory Light lineage."
