Chapter 249
Liu Qingli couldn't figure out who else behind Chengniang wanted to deal with Ye Guichen.

She thought Chengniang was just trying to vent the anger of her family.

Ye Guichen said: "She is doing it for herself, but if she doesn't have someone to help her, it is impossible for her to change her appearance and successfully lurk by my side in the past few years."

Upon hearing this, Liu Qingli immediately felt guilty.

She gritted her teeth and said guiltily and remorsefully: "My lord, it's all my fault. It's my fault. If I hadn't trusted Cheng Niang and brought her back to the palace, no matter what the people behind her planned, she wouldn't have had the chance to steal it." Get your things."

Ye Guichen hugged her into his arms and patted her on the back lightly: "I said before, it's not your fault, even if you didn't bring her to the palace, she still has other ways to treat me. "

On the contrary, Liu Qingli brought the person back under her nose, which saved a lot of trouble.

Liu Qingli listened to Ye Guichen's comfort, but her tense nerves still did not relax: "My lord, what exactly is Cheng Niang stole, is it important?"

Ye Guichen was silent for a while, and didn't tell her clearly, but comforted her: "I will take care of this matter, don't blame yourself, go back and have a good sleep, forget about these unhappy things."

He refused to say it clearly, and Liu Qingli became even more worried.

What did Cheng Niang steal?
Liu Qingli didn't know what to do.

Soon, the two returned to the palace. Not long after they came back, a servant came out to report in a hurry: "My lord, Mr. Jing Zhaoyin and Zhou have come with an imperial decree."

Zhou Yongxu is here?
Liu Qingli was a little nervous at once. This person had only lost face in the palace last time, and now he came with an imperial decree. I'm afraid the person who came was not kind.

She wanted to go out with Ye Guichen to receive the order.

Ye Guichen didn't let her go out, but instead ordered Lixia to take her back to have a good rest, and then went to see Jing Zhaoyin himself.

Liu Qingli was worried, and quietly followed Ye Guichen regardless of Lixia's obstruction.

Outside the living room, Zhou Yongxu stood up straight with an imperial decree in his hand.

Seeing Ye Guichen come out, Zhou Yongxu coughed in a muffled voice, cleared his throat, and said proudly, "The imperial decree has arrived, King Zhenxi knelt down to accept it."

Ye Guichen took a look, waved his sleeves and knelt down.

Zhou Yongxu became more and more proud, as if he felt that Ye Guichen was kneeling at this moment.

He unfolded the imperial decree and began to read: "The king of Zhenxi's ineffective supervision has resulted in the theft of the defense map around the capital and the palace. This map is related to the stability of the capital, and the king of Zhenxi is ordered to retrieve it as soon as possible."

Ye Guichen accepted the imperial edict expressionlessly.

Zhou Yongxu stood in front of him, staring at him condescendingly: "My lord, the emperor put the defense map in the palace for preservation. He originally valued the prince's ability, but now, the prince actually let the defense map be lost..."

Zhou Yongyong's tone was full of gloating, and he said leisurely: "The emperor is furious because of this, if the defense map cannot be found within five days, the prince will not only lose his title, but also be questioned."

Liu Qingli, who was hiding behind and eavesdropping, turned pale.

She didn't expect that this matter would be so serious!
Seeing that Ye Guichen didn't respond, Zhou Yongxu felt bored, so he cupped his hands and said goodbye: "Your Majesty, I can do it myself."

Ye Guichen curled the corners of his mouth coldly, and there was a cold and sharp low pressure in the corners of his eyes and brows: "Lian Yi, see off the guests."

Liu Qingli looked at Zhou Yongxu's back, and made a secret decision.

No, she can't sit still.

She was the one who brought Chengniang into the palace, so the losses caused should be borne by her!

Liu Qingli avoided Li Xia, left the mansion alone, and went to the other garden.

Seeing her again, Cheng Niang obviously calmed down a lot, she just glanced at her coldly, shook the chain on her hand, and sneered, "Why are you here? Haven't you seen enough of my jokes? "

Liu Qingli stood a few steps away from her, not daring to approach her, but gritted her teeth and whispered softly: "Cheng Niang, I'm here to ask you something."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Niang laughed instantly.

She looked at Liu Qingli in disbelief, as if she was looking at a simple and ridiculous fool, and said sarcastically: "Oh, it's ridiculous, you dignified Princess Zhenxi, why do you want me to be a prisoner?"

Liu Qingli didn't mind her ridicule, and stepped forward to try to persuade her: "Cheng Niang, as long as you hand over the defense map, I will beg the prince to let you go, and you can recover your freedom in the future, leave Hualou and leave the capital , to live a free life."

Liu Qingli wasn't sure if she could convince Chengniang this time.

But she came anyway.

If she hadn't led the wolf into the room, Cheng Niang would have no chance to enter the study and steal the defense map.

This is a mess she caused, and she should stand up and solve it.

Cheng Niang laughed foolishly, and said indifferently, "Freedom? I've come to this point, what does it matter to me if I'm not free?"

Cheng Niang shrugged her shoulders, and said indifferently, "I don't even want my life anymore, I just want Ye Guichen to die! I want him to taste what my whole family tasted back then!"

Liu Qingli couldn't hear what she said about Ye Guichen, and immediately retorted: "What does the suffering your family has endured have anything to do with the prince?"

Cheng Niang was stunned for a moment, but soon she came to her senses, and said leisurely: "It seems that he told you everything, and now he really trusts you..."

Liu Qingli couldn't stand her meaningful and eccentric tone, her brows were furrowed.

Cheng Niang's face was stiff, her eyes filled with endless silence: "Do you really think that Ye Guichen is completely innocent?"

"These powerful ministers fight for power and profit all day long, and fight each other. Pity my father. It's just because they are on the wrong team that they ended up like this!"

"No one has forgotten that my father has been in power for many years and has made a lot of achievements for the court. Everyone only remembers that he said a few words about the crown prince!"

"Just because of a few words, my whole family ended up in such a terrible end..."

Just a few words?

Liu Qingli felt that Cheng Niang thought these things too simply.

However, she also knew that Cheng Niang was so emotional at the moment that she couldn't listen to others' rebuttals.

Liu Qingli just listened to her without saying a word.

Cheng Niang took a heavy breath, her eyes were a little moist, she said in grief and indignation: "My mother was just so pissed off."

She patted herself on the chest hard: "At my age, I was supposed to be married to a son of a family, happy and happy, but when Ye Guichen rushed into my house with someone, everything was ruined!"

"I was sent to that dark brothel, dealing with different men all day long..."

Her mournful expression made Liu Qingli feel a little distressed for her, feeling helpless and sad.

Liu Qingli shook her head slightly, and said noncommittally: "All of this is caused by your father's mistakes. You shouldn't blame others. Your lord, you are just doing things impartially."

These words directly ignited the anger in Cheng Niang's heart.
