Lin Youyi nodded lightly.

"Now that the crown prince is dead, does that mean that many things are dead without evidence and everything is settled?"

"Absolutely impossible! The third division is already stepping up the investigation, and no one who is guilty can escape!"

"In this way, maybe someone didn't want to be troubled by the prince, so he silenced him early in the morning! Could it be... the second prince?"

"He? Huh!"

Mu Zheng's sneer made Lin Youyi even more confused.

"My lord, what are you laughing at?"

"Little girl, you don't know something. This time the prince jumped off the wall and rebelled, it was the second child who told me face to face with his nose and tears!"

"Is it the prince who was reported by the second prince? He is really a fool! Seeing that the prince's decline has become apparent, and there is no way to recover! He immediately turned against him and came forward to testify? The prince is certainly guilty, but the second prince is also his heart Executionable!"

"If you want to judge the crime, I'm afraid it won't be the second child's turn for a while!"

"But, I don't understand... How dare the second prince? Back then, he was a dog in front of the prince! He knew so many unrighteous actions by the prince, and his hands weren't that clean after all! Once the prince was arrested , how can the second prince be alone? Isn’t it logical to say that he planned to kill the prince?”

"The crown prince is imprisoned, and the East Palace is heavily guarded. Not to mention a living person, even a cat or dog, it is absolutely impossible! This matter must have been done by someone in the East Palace. It's just that , whether it is related to the second child, we have to check in detail before we can draw a conclusion."

"Inside the Eastern Palace..."

Lin Youyi muttered softly, and then gradually fell into deep thought.

However, after thinking about it, she seemed to remember something again, and looked up at Mu Zheng again.

"Then... how should we deal with the prince's wives and concubines?"

"All buried!"

Mu Zheng's decisive yet indifferent answer made Lin Youyi's heart rise to her throat instantly.

"Buried? All? Then Xiao Qinyao will also be buried? But isn't Yan Youning still pregnant?"

"My king ordered that those who die with the crown prince will not be implicated in his mother's family. If not, the crime will be attached to the treason! As for Yan Youning, we will wait until the emperor's brother's dragon body is better before making a judgment!"

In addition to being shocked, Lin Youyi was still a little bit unresponsive.

She seemed at a loss, but also seemed to want to confirm what Mu Zheng said just now.

As a result, Lin Youyi stared at Mu Zheng in astonishment.

"Little girl, what are you doing looking at me like this?"

"My lord, so... before you decided to let me enter the palace, you had already made up your mind to let Xiao Qinyao be buried?"

Perhaps, burial is just a form.

No matter what the prince's ending is, Xiao Qinyao will not end well!

What's more, Mu Zheng will not give the prince a chance to live on!
As a prince, one person is under one person and over ten thousand people, the only crime that can put him to death, and there is no room for change, is conspiracy to commit crimes!
Seeing Lin Youyi's horrified look, Mu Zheng felt amused, and stretched out his hand to gently support her chin.

"Don't she deserve to die?"

"That's not what I mean, I'm just thinking... Xiao Qinyao is definitely not willing to go to death so easily, will it implicate the Hou Mansion?"

"Abandoning a worthless daughter and keeping the family safe forever, if you were the Marquis of Chengyang, how would you choose?"

"I……"

Lin Youyi hesitated and was speechless.

Mu Zheng reached out and pinched her little cheek.

"Little girl, in the past, their brothers and sisters repeatedly designed to harm you, and you repeatedly chose to compromise, all in order to protect the Hou Mansion! It is the fault of the father whether to raise or not! Now, it is Chengyang's turn." For the sake of the Hou Mansion, Hou abandoned his car to save his handsome man! Xiao Qinyao should also taste it for herself, the feeling of being betrayed by all relatives and having nothing left before she dies! Perhaps, by then, she will have nothing to love in life, and death will be a relief!"

Mu Zheng's words made the big rock hanging in Lin Youyi's heart crash to the ground!
She has been struggling all this time.

Although, she has avenged all the revenge that should be avenged, but she is just discussing the matter and dismissing the tricks as they see fit.

But Mu Zheng was completely opposite to her!

Those people who harmed her, although Mu Zheng didn't kill them all at that time, but he remembered every account in his heart!

The purpose of breaking down tricks is to prevent her from being wronged, and the purpose of cutting grass and roots is to prevent future troubles forever!
Lin Youyi suddenly felt a burst of warmth in her heart, that kind of solid and safe feeling was unprecedented!

Seeing Lin Youyi bowed her head without saying a word, Mu Zheng suddenly became curious.

He raised Lin Youyi's jaw, and made her look up at him.

"Little girl, have you softened your heart?"

"No, I was just thinking, what will Lord Hou choose? But at least, Xiao Yu'an will not stand by and let Xiao Qinyao be buried here!"

"Heh...Little girl, with such a bright little head like yours, there are times when you don't turn around?"

"My lord, you are laughing at me again!"

"Since the king's oral instructions have been handed down, only Xiao Yu'an stands still and doesn't say a word!"

"Huh? He...doesn't care about Xiao Qinyao's life? This...is not like what he did!"

Regarding Lin Youyi's doubts, Mu Zheng didn't explain much.

He wouldn't tell Lin Youyi that although Xiao Yu'an loved Xiao Qinyao, he loved Lin Youyi even more!
Xiao Yu'an knew that the only person who could save Xiao Qinyao's life was Mu Zheng!
And the only one who can make Mu Zheng change his mind and regain his fame is Lin Youyi!

No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for Xiao Yu'an to put Lin Youyi in a dilemma!

Moreover, he didn't want Lin Youyi to beg Mu Zheng!
Lin Youyi puffed her fleshy face, blinked her big eyes and looked at Mu Zheng.

"My lord, you just said... only Xiao Yu'an stayed put? Could it be that someone from the Hou Mansion found you to intercede for Xiao Qinyao?"

According to Lin Youyi's conjecture, the only one who dared to say this to Mu Zheng was the Marquis of Chengyang!
However, judging from what Mu Zheng just said, Xiao Qinyao must die!

That is to say, Cheng Yanghou was not pleased with Mu Zheng either!
However, Mu Zheng's answer immediately surprised Lin Youyi again.

"It's not the king, it's you!"

"Me? No! I'm here with the empress dowager. I eat and sleep well. The sky outside is cloudy, and I don't even know it!"

"With your mother holding an umbrella for you, of course you can't see the cloudy sky outside!"

"Empress Dowager?"

The news Mu Zheng gave was like a blockbuster to Lin Youyi!
This shocked Lin Youyi even more than the news that the prince hanged himself!

She always thought that the Empress Dowager looked down on her.

Ken was forced to keep her by his side.

However, Lin Youyi never thought that the reason why she was able to enjoy leisure and leisure was that the empress dowager blocked her worries!
