Chapter 51 The Reason for Being Tricked Out

In order to make her give out Ye Jinchen and write a statement, the cloth stuffed in her mouth was torn off in the dungeon.

Whenever she tried to chant the spell, she was slapped mercilessly.

He leaned over and raised his hand to lift her chin, with a hint of anger in his eyes, and said, "Did you really not say a word?"

Zhi Xing was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips, and said: "If Your Highness is suspicious of Zhi Xing, you should put an end to it yourself."

Ye Jingnian pushed her face away and slowly clenched his fists. For some reason, he felt very uncomfortable.

He should be happy that she is so loyal.

Seeing his clenched fist, Zhixing's eyes suddenly turned red.

The scene of the poison dart being shot at her kept appearing in her mind.

Did he really want to kill her to silence her? Then why did he go to save her?

Ye Jingnian swallowed, closed his eyes and exhaled gently, saying, "Tell me, how did you do something stupid and get tricked out?"

Hearing this, Zhi Xing's heart skipped a beat and she bit her lip, not daring to speak.

Ye Jingnian squatted down, stared at her face and said, "Speak!"

Zhi Xing's lips and teeth trembled, and she lowered her head and whispered, "A woman who disguised herself as Ling Yin said that His Highness summoned me..."

"Stupid!" Ye Jingnian frowned and roared, "When did I ever summon you so late?"

Zhi Xing just shed tears in grievance, gritted her teeth and said: "Yes, I am stupid...I have caused trouble for Your Highness."

Ye Jingnian suddenly paused, lifted her chin, and watched the tears overflowing from her eyes flow down her cheeks and drip onto his fingers: "Do you think I want to favor you?"

Zhi Xing froze, bit her lip and refused to admit it, but her face turned visibly red.

Ye Jingnian sneered and said, "The clothes are taken off."

Zhixing was stunned for a moment, then shook her head in panic.

Ye Jingnian grabbed her wrist and reached out to tear off her clothes.

Zhi Xing felt the chill on her body, and felt a surge of shame and anger. She gritted her teeth and said, "Your Highness, I don't want it!"

Ye Jingnian, however, tore off her bloody dress without explanation, and sneered, "You clearly like me, but you insist on rejecting me. Zhixing, don't be so hypocritical and make me annoyed."

"No..." Zhixing hugged her cold arms and shivered.

When she was summoned, she naively thought that Ye Jingnian missed her and remembered her good points.

But now looking at his indifferent expression, it was clear that he didn't take her seriously. To her, Lingling was no different from the woman in his backyard who he had summoned a few times and then abandoned to fend for herself.

She didn't want him to play with her like a pet, or keep her in a backyard without sunlight. She wanted him to really respect her and really like her...

What's more, she is in such a miserable state now, she doesn't want to do that at all!
"Ah!" The sudden burning pain scared her so much that she screamed.

Ye Jingnian took the medicinal wine on the table and poured it on her wounds. Looking at her trembling and twitching, he said indifferently, "If you act stupid again, I will not save you again."

Zhi Xing was in so much pain that she kept crying and sobbed, "Yes, Zhi Xing will remember..."

Prince Ye's Palace.

After Sheng Yunqing drank the medicine, his originally pale face became much rosier and his body temperature gradually rose.

Ye Jinchen helped her sit up, then sat cross-legged in front of her. He put his hands on hers and used his internal energy to transfer it into her body.

Sheng Yunqing felt that his breathing became smoother, and the meridians in his body were open, as if a clear spring was running through him.

She opened her lips lightly and murmured, "Ye Jinchen, I'm sleepy..."

Ye Jinchen picked her up and laid her flat on the bed, caressing her forehead and cheeks. Seeing her become healthier, he raised the corners of his lips. He whispered, "Okay, go to sleep."

"Don't peek at me sleeping." Sheng Yunqing said softly, but turned over, grabbed his hand and pressed it under his face, rubbing it affectionately.

Ye Jinchen frowned slightly as he looked at how she depended on him.

Had he misunderstood all along? She didn't like him, she just liked the purple aura on her.

Any man with dragon veins would be fine... She doesn't have to be him.

At noon, in the imperial palace, civil and military officials went to court to discuss matters.

"If you have something to report, please do so. If not, please dismiss the court!" the eunuch said in a shrill voice.

"Brother Emperor, I have a certificate." Ye Jinchen, dressed in solemn court robes, walked out of the crowd.

Ye Jinfeng sat on the dragon throne, supporting his face with one hand weakly, and sighed secretly.

As soon as he saw Ye Jinchen, he felt upset!

"speak."

"Yesterday, Prince Ye's Mansion was attacked by evil spirits, causing panic among the people and almost causing a loss of life."

Ye Jinfeng narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth secretly.

How come no one was killed?!
He said in a low voice, "It must be that someone in your house has been to some unclean place, and you are frightened. Nanling brought a Hetian jade Pixiu into the palace a few days ago, and I will give it to you to ward off evil spirits."

"Thank you for your kindness, my brother. However, I am here to ask for an explanation." He turned his cold eyes to Ye Jingnian and said, "Does being the crown prince of this country allow you to be so lawless and harm your uncle so many times?"

Upon hearing this, all the civil and military officials in the court were in an uproar.

Ye Jingnian glanced at Ye Jinchen, a trace of sinister murderous intent flashed across his eyes. He smiled contemptuously and said, "I'm afraid the evil spirit in the emperor's body has not been eliminated, so he is talking nonsense here, right?"

Ye Jinfeng's originally weary eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Ye Jingnian and said, "Prince, what's going on?"

Ye Jing snorted and said, "I don't know what the emperor's uncle is talking about."

Sheng Yukun said to Ye Jingnian with a cold face: "Your Highness, my nephew was killed in Prince Ye's Mansion yesterday and has been unconscious ever since. Everyone in Prince Ye's Mansion can testify to this. Your Highness, you brought the Millennium Star and Moon Flower to Prince Ye's Mansion to apologize. Don't you want to admit it now?"

Ye Jingnian sneered a few times and said to Ye Jinchen, "Uncle, you accepted the gift but you still want to report me in front of my father. Isn't that unfair?"

Upon hearing this, everyone around them showed shocked expressions.

"It turned out that it was really done by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an eccentric personality, but I didn't expect him to be so vicious..."

Hearing the discussion, Ye Jinfeng's hands on the armrest of the dragon chair gradually clenched, and a surge of anger surged in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said, "Prince, why don't you apologize to your brother?"

Ye Jingnian had a sinister look on his face, but a dandy smile was revealed in his eyes. He said, "It was my nephew who was rude and disturbed the Emperor's uncle and Miss Sheng."

After he finished speaking, he bowed to Ye Jinchen reluctantly.

Ye Jinchen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Ye Jingnian would admit it so easily.

Ye Jinfeng raised his hand and rubbed his brow, saying: "The prince has behaved improperly and is under house arrest for three months. If he does it again, he will be severely punished!"

Ye Jingnian lowered his head and accepted the order, "Thank you, father."

"For murdering the prince, even if he is the crown prince, the punishment is too light, isn't it?"

"Alas, it's because Prince Ye is not favored..."
