Chapter 74: Zhizhi feels wronged
"Your Highness, can you accompany me?" Ming Zhaoyi said in a low voice with grievance in her eyes, "Your Highness is not around, I am a little scared."

The Crown Princess standing aside had a calm expression, and the palms of her hands hidden in her sleeves were almost scratched by her fingernails.

Ming Zhaoyi relies on the favor of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and is so arrogant. If His Royal Highness agrees to her in front of everyone, I am afraid she will become even more lawless in the future.

"Since Ming Zhaoyi is afraid and Your Highness is busy with official duties, how about I accompany her?"

When these words were spoken, not only Ming Zhaoyi, but everyone present was stunned.

The Crown Prince's frown slowly relaxed, and he walked forward, held the Crown Princess's hand and said, "It's hard for the Crown Princess to have such a heart, thank you for your hard work."

Qi Zhaoying smiled calmly, "It is my honor to be able to share your worries, Your Highness."

Ming Zhaoyi looked at the two people treating each other with respect and had to grit her teeth to express her gratitude.

Just when everyone thought the matter was over, Ye Liangdi rushed out with half of her face swollen and red, "Your Highness, Your Highness, you have to make the decision for me!"

"Ming Zhaoyi is confusing right and wrong. She is going too far!"

Ye Liangdi didn't care about her messy hair and raised her neck so that people could see the scars on her face clearly.

When the Crown Princess saw the three blood marks, she couldn't help but gasp. She didn't expect Ming Zhaoyi to be so cruel.

Seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was slow to speak, everyone thought that he was in a dilemma.

Even Nan Zhiyu was making wild guesses. Now that the two were facing each other head-on, she wondered who the Crown Prince would help.

Ming Zhaoyi raised her chin in a haughty manner, "Ye Liangdi committed treason and spoke disrespectfully to me. Your Highness, do you think she should be punished?"

The prince brushed his sleeves without even glancing at Ye Liangdi lying on the ground. "Ye Liangdi offended Ming Zhaoyi. You will be fined three months' salary and confined for one month."

Ye Liang Di raised her head with a look of dissatisfaction, "Your Highness, Ming Zhaoyi's family is ordinary, how can she be considered a superior? I am the daughter of a general's mansion, and my father is the commander of the Qi family army. Together with Dingchang Hou Shen Hui, we fought for the Southern Qin Kingdom."

General Ye’s position in Jingzhou City is not considered high, but he holds real military power, and his achievements are the result of bloody battles.

No matter how good she is, can she be inferior to Ming Zhaoyi, a sickly woman who is good for nothing and gasps for air every few steps?

Ye Liang Di stared at the prince intently and asked in a shrill voice: "The Ye family army is loyal and dedicated to the Southern Qin Kingdom. Is their precious daughter not as good as her?"

"That's enough. Don't bring disgrace upon the reputation of General Ye's Mansion. If it weren't for them, do you think you would still be able to kneel here?"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left with a flick of his sleeves, and the concubines hurried to see him off respectfully.

The farce ended miserably. Nan Zhiyu and Mu Chang walked together on the road, telling some jokes.

Suddenly Mu Chang stopped walking, and Nan Zhiyu turned to look at her curiously, "Sister Mu, why don't you leave?"

"Let's go, where are we going?" Mu Chang said, raising her chin slightly to gesture.

Nan Zhiyu saw Chai Hui waiting not far away, and the sedan chair was surrounded by guards with swords, and she felt a little scared.

She tiptoed to Mu Chang's ear and whispered, "Sister Mu, is His Highness waiting for you here?"

Mu Chang curled her lips at her, "Do you think I have such a big face?"

Nan Zhiyu saw Chai Hui walking towards them cheerfully and subconsciously wanted to step back, but Mu Chang grabbed her arm and said, "When he saw His Royal Highness, he was so happy that he couldn't tell east from west. Why are you pretending not to see it?"

Nan Zhiyu held her arm helplessly and muttered, "I, I'm scared~"

Chai Hui bowed respectfully and said, "Is Concubine Mu all right? His Highness is waiting for Yue Zhaoxun in front to reminisce about the past. Concubine Mu, please make yourself at your service." Mu Chang looked at Qing Dai and Lian Yue with shining eyes, "Does His Highness the Crown Prince often secretly look for your young mistress to... no, meet her?"

Qingdai shook her head and said, "Maybe only one or two times." As for the other occasional meetings, she really couldn't remember clearly.

Mu Chang's eyes were filled with excitement, "One or two times, is that not enough?" It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be in trouble this time at the hands of Nan Zhiyu.

The first half of the sentence that Monk Yideng wrote has come true, but I don’t know how to interpret the second half.

Nan Zhiyu got into the sedan chair, lowered her head and knelt in the corner, wishing she could be a million miles away from His Highness.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince raised his hand to support his head, and his eyes, which seemed to be smiling, fell on her casually, "Nan Jiaojiao, why are you so far away from me?"

Nan Zhiyu heard this and automatically understood it as: Come over here quickly!
Nan Zhiyu approached slowly, knelt beside him, and whispered, "Your Highness~"

After not hearing the Crown Prince's response, Nan Zhiyu secretly raised her eyes and met those sinister phoenix eyes. "Since Your Highness hates me, why did you order me to come forward and defile your eyes?"

In front, Ming Zhaoyi is jealous, Ye Liangdi is vying for favor, and behind, the Crown Princess's sister is coveting her, and there are so many sisters in the Eastern Palace who are secretly watching.

Wei Qingye listened to the sour sound of Linlang's music, feeling a little surprised, but his expression did not show it at all.

He lowered his eyes, his gaze fell on her slender jade fingers half hidden in her sleeves, as if guessing something, and said coldly: "Stretch out your hand."

Nan Zhiyu's shoulders trembled slightly, and the fingers hidden in her sleeves pinched her palms even harder. She tilted her head in confusion, "Your Highness?"

Wei Qingye said impatiently: "Put your hand out."

Nan Zhiyu stretched out her hands with a sense of grievance, only to see that her palms were red from being pinched, with ten crescent-shaped marks clearly visible on them.

"Nan Jiaojiao, you are so cruel to yourself." Wei Qingye glared at her, his obscure eyes seemed to be smiling, "You are hurting yourself instead of the enemy?"

Nan Zhiyu wanted to pull her hand back, but when she met the prince's oppressive gaze, she put it back obediently, "My nails are just a little longer."

Wei Qingye sneered, leaned closer, and teased without saying anything, "Then why do I smell a hint of jealousy?"

Nan Zhiyu groaned and grabbed the prince's arm, saying softly, "Your Highness has so many sisters serving him, I'm afraid you have long forgotten that there is such a person as me."

Wei Qingye raised his hand and hooked her chin, "Well, you haven't forgotten it yet, right?"

"Hmph, Your Highness means that if my injury is not healed, you will completely forget about it, right?" Nan Zhiyu's voice was filled with complaints, and she glared at Your Highness with her glazed eyes, half angry and half teasing.

"If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have to wait anxiously for Your Highness. It's such a waste."

Seeing Nan Zhiyu pouting with a look of reluctance on her face, Wei Qingye laughed out loud.

"I just changed the place to review the memorials, Nan Jiaojiao, what are you thinking about?"

Nan Zhiyu's pupils dilated and her heart beat violently. Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say this to her?

Is it what she meant to go to another place to review memorials?

"Just because of this, you almost pinched the skin on your palm?" Wei Qingye grabbed her hand and stroked the crescent mark carefully.
