Chapter 35: The Wise King
"Greetings to the wise prince, your servant Yun Qianyi."

Yun Qianyi folded her hands at her waist, bent her knees slightly, and performed the usual etiquette for women.

She was dressed in a gorgeous purple silk dress with delicate and beautiful dark patterns. On her sleeves was an embroidered phoenix totem woven with dense gold thread, each inch of which was worth a thousand pieces of gold.

Although she didn't wear many accessories on her head, the white jade hairpin alone was enough to buy a prosperous shop in the capital. She was truly low-key yet luxurious.

But compared to these external decorations, what is more eye-catching is Yun Qianyi's face. There is a hint of coldness in her charm, and her facial features are extremely beautiful, especially the bewitching fox eyes, which are captivating.

She has an arrogant temperament, and her aura is not inferior to that of the royal family who holds a high position.

"Miss Yun, there's no need to be so polite."

Jun Jinhuan came back to his senses and suddenly felt that the three words "Yun Qianyi" sounded familiar.

A hint of gloom flashed across his eyes. The last time Guo Qing came back to Beijing to see him, he had mentioned this name. Before sunset, Guo Qing died of festering all over his body. His death was horrible and miserable.

In addition, Yun Qianyi deliberately slowed down the last three words. Was he provoking him?
Jun Jinhuan looked at the woman in front of him with a raised mouth and curved eyebrows, and was instantly distracted by this beautiful smile.

Even though he was a prince, a noble lady, and a foreign beauty, he had seen all kinds of women. But Yun Qianyi was a peerless beauty who looked like a goddess, holy, and charming like a fairy. I'm afraid no one in the four countries could compare to her.

Yun Qianyi was thinking in his mind, where should he start? He was a prince after all, so he couldn't be too obvious. It would be safer to poison him. But wasn't it a bit too easy to let him die like this?
Yun Qianyi, who was concentrating on thinking, did not notice that the person standing next to him could no longer conceal the murderous intent in his eyes.

Jun Yanci clenched his hands tightly behind his back, wishing he could kill Jun Jinhuan immediately.

His Qianqian performed the woman's etiquette and even laughed at the thing.

How can Jun Jinhuan match this? And since just now, this thing has been staring at Qianqian, and its eyes have never moved away. It's really annoying.

Dark waves surged, and the entire hall was silent.

At this moment, Meng Ran chuckled and couldn't help laughing out loud.

As a companion who grew up with Jun Yanci, Meng Ran knew exactly what he was thinking when he saw Jun Yanci's expression.

Last time, just because his younger brother Meng Chen looked at Yun Qianyi twice more, he threatened to dig out his brother's eyes. His younger brother was so scared that he hasn't left the house until now.

Now it’s okay, we can’t just dig out Prince Qizhu’s eyes.

"Master Meng, what are you laughing at?"

Fu Junliang was so nervous about this Shura scene that he almost broke out in a cold sweat. Who would have thought that Meng Ran, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, could still laugh? !
Because of Fu Junliang's words, everyone present turned their attention to Meng Ran.

Meng Ran adjusted his expression and walked down calmly. He raised his hands, crossed his knuckles, and saluted Yun Qianyi respectfully.

"Your humble servant Meng Ran, thank you Miss Yun for saving my brother at the Duke's Mansion that day."

Yun Qianyi looked at him and remembered that the boy's eyes and eyebrows were indeed similar to Meng Ran's. It turned out that he was his younger brother.

"Easy to do."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jun Jinhuan asked:

"Miss Yun also knows medical skills?"

His curiosity about the woman in front of him was obvious.

Yun Chengyi frowned, remembering that his father and grandmother had said that they didn't want Yun Qianyi to get too close to the royal family, so he said:

"Your Highness, Prince, my case has not yet been concluded."

But after his reminder, these people not only did not return to the hall, but instead stood with him in the hall.

In the final analysis, it was all because of Yun Qianyi. If she was in the hall, then Jun Yanci would definitely be by her side. The crown prince was in the hall, who else would dare to sit in the hall except the current emperor? !
"Where is the trial going?"

Jun Yanci asked impatiently. He couldn't help but want to get closer to Yun Qianyi, but he couldn't do that now.
"Your Highness, we have verified the time when Second Young Master Yun left the palace and returned home, and we have ruled him out as the murderer. But whether he appeared in Yueying Tower remains to be verified, and the witness' testimony is inconsistent with the previous one."

Yun Qianyi looked at these people and found that most of them had fainted due to being unable to endure the torture. Only one person remained conscious, but he was also in a dying state.

"Sir, sir, shopkeeper, finally arrange for the courtesan Yueru to serve Mr. Yun. She has the closest contact with him, so she may be able to recognize him."

The person who spoke was a servant from Yueying Tower. He held on to his last breath with his eyes half closed. After he finished speaking, he collapsed to the ground and died.

Even after these people were taken away, the smell of blood still lingered in the air.

Yun Qianyi subconsciously looked at Jun Yanci and found that this man had taken out the sachet that he had given him last time and placed it to his nose to smell.

You’re so good, Yun Manyiqian.

She raised her hand and wanted to rub his head.

Jun Yanci had been with her day and night for the past few days, so he naturally understood her every move. He lowered his head in secret joy.

At this moment, a slender and thin woman was thrown not far in front of them.

Yun Qianyi withdrew his hand in the air. After seeing the bloody body, his pupils contracted and he frowned suddenly.

"Why don't you pay your respects to all the gentlemen!" The whip hit the woman who was already covered with bruises without mercy.

"I am Yueru, a humble servant, honored to meet you, sir."

The voice was as weak as a cat's, which showed how badly Yueru was injured. She almost had no strength to speak.

"Look up! Is this the person who quarreled with my son Chen Ting that day?"

Yue Ru knelt up and raised her head with difficulty. After seeing Yun Chengyi, she shook her head and suddenly noticed the woman standing next to him.

Why do they look so familiar? Those fox eyes, could it be
Yueru, who was originally uncertain, suddenly opened her eyes wide and understood after seeing Jun Yanci beside Yun Qianyi.

She knocked her head to the ground and said:

"Your Excellency, I have never seen the young master in the hall."

Everyone present was smart, how could they not see that she was abnormal?
Jun Jinhuan personally stepped forward, squatted down, and lifted Yueru's chin.

"Girl, take a closer look. Is there anyone else among them who went to Yueying Tower that night?" His voice was gentle and his eyes were soft.

But after seeing Yueru shaking her head again, he stood up, put his fingers in his sleeves and rubbed them.

After turning around, a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes, and he looked at the Minister of Justice Chen Song, who immediately made a gesture to the executioner of the Ministry of Justice.

"Snap!" The whip sounded and hit the delicate woman hard, leaving her skin and flesh torn.

The fox's eyes captured a chilling coldness, and when the second whip was about to be lashed out, a purple figure resolutely stood in front of Yueru.

“Qianqian!”

"Fourth sister!"

Yun Qianyi raised his left hand, grasped the whip tightly, and swung it violently, knocking the runner to the ground with the whip.

Then, Yun Chengyi grasped her left wrist and lifted it up. The gentle man's face was full of worry. When he was about to take a closer look at her palm, it was snatched away by the person next to him.
