Chapter 731: The Crown Prince is held accountable?

"Well"

The guards were all shocked as they watched Wang Xuance point to the room that Shi Nayun had just entered. They wanted to remind Wang Xuance that we had reserved this courtyard and that he would have to pay even if he didn't sleep there. Besides, even if the funds in the East Palace were tight, there was no need to save the prince's room fee, right?

Lord Wang, isn't your reason a bit far-fetched?

Wang Xuance obviously wanted to help the prince. The two were somewhat tempted but also somewhat worried. They said with an embarrassed look on their faces, "Sir, this is not good. His Highness is unconscious now. If we make the decision on our own, what if His Highness wakes up and blames us?"

"I will naturally take the blame from His Highness, you just need to follow my orders."

As Wang Xuance spoke, he personally took the puddle-like Li Yan in his arms, and together with another guard, helped Li Yan into Shi Nayun's room.

The layout of this master bedroom is a living room outside and a bedroom inside, with a screen in the middle.

Wang Xuance didn't dare to look any further, and quickly took off Li Yan's outer clothes, leaving only his underwear, and put them next to Ashina Yun.

Then he removed the hook on the edge of the bed curtain, and the curtain slowly fell, trapping the two of them inside.

Wang Xuance came out and closed the door, then told the two guards, "Go to the shop outside and buy two sets of clothes, one for inner and one for outer, one for men and one for women."

"Go to the kitchen and ask the shopkeeper to prepare hot water and a bath tub. They'll be ready when you need them."

"Yes!"

After the two men agreed, they went their separate ways. Wang Xuance, on the other hand, stood at the door of the guest room with a heavy heart, guarding it with anxiety.

The entire yard was filled with guards standing as tall as green pines, each of them holding their heads high and chests puffed out, looking straight ahead.

I didn’t expect that the wait would last from the afternoon until the next day.

Wang Xuance didn’t remember how many times the noise happened in the house. When the next morning light came up, Wang Xuance, who had been waiting all night, was extremely sleepy.

"what"

A scream that echoed throughout the courtyard suddenly came from the house. The sound was clear and pleasant, but the disbelief, pain, sadness and despair that came from it, the grief that came from the heart, could be felt by all the guards in the courtyard.

It was as if the great general above was about to come for an inspection. The guards, exhausted both physically and mentally after standing all night, took a deep breath, gathered their spirits, stood straight, and looked sympathetically at Wang Xuance, who was standing at the door with a tired look on his face, as they were about to face the prince's wrath.

Sure enough, just as everyone had finished tidying up, they heard a familiar furious voice coming from inside the house: "Wang Xuance, get out of here."

Wang Xuance had known this would happen, so he straightened his clothes, pushed the door open and walked in.

Li Yan was wearing a white lining, standing barefoot beside the bed, with an angry expression on his face. He pointed in the direction of the bed and said, "Wang Xuance, you dog slave, what's going on?"

"To Princess Ashina Yun"

"No, I want to explain to you what happened. How could this happen and why it turned out like this?"

"How did you get the job? Huh?"

On the other side, Ashina Yun huddled weakly in a corner of the bed, her body curled up into a ball, the quilt covering her body tightly, the half of her head that was exposed buried in front of her knees, her hair scattered on her shoulders, her expression was sad, her eyes were red, and tears as big as beans flowed down her face.

Even a blind man would know what happened at this time. It was obvious that something was wrong. Wang Xuance knelt on the ground with a look of shock on his face: "Your Highness, you and Princess Ashina Yun were both drunk yesterday."

At this point, Li Yan walked forward angrily and kicked Wang Xuance to the side. "I can't drink much. I've been drunk more than once or twice. You've been with me for so many years, don't you know? When has anything happened?"

"I finally invited Princess Ashina Yun to dinner, and you guys messed up like this. Why did I raise you guys? You are all good-for-nothings, useless people who can't even take care of a master. How can I explain this to the princess?"

Wang Xuance quickly got up and knelt on the spot, saying with a wronged look on his face: "Your Highness, it's all my fault. Yesterday, Your Highness was very happy to see the princess and was in high spirits. He drank without restraint. And the princess, for some reason, drank the wine dry. So the two of you drank six jars of Jiannan Shaochun wine."

"This wine tastes slightly sweet at first, and is comfortable to drink, but it has a strong aftertaste. I was stopped by my mission at that time."

"Who would have thought that after the princess saw the motorcade of the Prince of Shu's palace, she became very emotional and picked up the wine jar to drink to drown her sorrows. I tried to persuade you with a few words, but you drove me out of the room and ordered me not to go back in."

When she said this, Ashina Yun's eyes were slightly tearful. After Wang Xuance's reminder, she suddenly remembered that it seemed that she discovered yesterday that the prince had a poor alcohol tolerance and wanted to get the military intelligence of the Tang Dynasty, so she kept forcing him to drink.

Later, stimulated by the fact that Li Ge abandoned him, he pulled Li Yan to drink non-stop. At that time, Lord Wang seemed to be trying to dissuade him, but was later kicked out by himself.

When Ashana Yun thought about her current situation, which was caused by herself, her heart was filled with endless regret. She had just woken up suddenly and saw the two of them lying together, which made her unable to accept it for a while. She collapsed and her emotions were out of control.

Now that she had calmed down, after hearing Wang Xuance's explanation, an endless look of bitterness suddenly appeared on her face, and tears flowed down her face without mercy.

Li Yan secretly glanced and saw Ashina Yun lowering her head and crying. Her voice was no longer as righteous and confident as before, and her arrogance also subsided. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In his three lives as a human being, everything had either happened naturally or been pushed down by others.

I have never faced such a situation before. It was like being caught red-handed. Li Yan felt a little scalp-tingling when he faced the owner's accountability after stealing the piglet that had been raised by someone for more than ten years.

Seeing that Wang Xuance's response was very reasonable, he appeased Ashina Yun.

Li Yan secretly praised, well done.

Then he continued to stand up, his face solemn, and quickly turned around and scolded: "You are drunk, it's not a big deal, it's not the first time, but why am I in the same bed with the princess?"

"Your Highness, I am wronged! Your Highness is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty. You have always been clean and self-disciplined, following the teachings of the saints, and have never done anything disrespectful. I and other officials of the Eastern Palace admire you very much. Even if I had a hundred guts, I would not dare to frame Your Highness, right?"

Wang Xuance said the response he had been thinking about all night: "Your Highness and the princess were both drunk yesterday. I wanted to send Your Highness back, but I don't know what happened in the city. The entire Chang'an city is under martial law."

"If someone sees His Highness drunk and spreads the news to the Emperor and the Empress, they will be furious and punish His Highness. The ministers and the people in the court will also say that His Highness is unkempt and unruly, and does not live up to the dignity of a crown prince."

"So, out of caution, I took the initiative to let Your Highness and the princess rest in the inn behind the restaurant. But when we walked into the yard, the princess woke up and insisted on talking to Your Highness. She asked about the music Your Highness played yesterday, and then asked what Your Highness was busy with."

"Your Highness went into the room to talk with the princess."

Li Yan immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's next? Both me and the princess are drunk, can't you take care of us?"

"Your Highness, there was an assassination in the city yesterday. The soldiers in Chang'an were searching everywhere for the assassin. When they came here, I was afraid that they would disturb Your Highness and the princess, so I went out to deal with it."

Wang Xuance cried and explained, "Just after I sent the guards away, Henglian, the chief guard of the Eastern Palace, came over again and said that the Emperor had an urgent matter and wanted to summon the Crown Prince. When I saw the Crown Prince in that state, I wondered how he could go to see the Emperor. So I hurriedly went to the harem with Henglian to ask the Queen for help in covering up the matter."

"After I left, I was busy all night. When I returned here, it was already late at night. The guards said that His Highness had gone to bed. These assassins only know how to protect His Highness. How can they know what His Highness should and should not do?"

"After I inquired about the situation, I knew that a big mistake had been made and it was too late to do anything. Your Highness, I am guilty. It was all because I failed to take good care of Your Highness, causing Your Highness to lose her virginity to the barbarians and tainting the royal bloodline. Please sentence me to death."
