Chapter 50 The Prince is Jealous
After the Crown Prince left court, when his sedan chair passed by the small garden near the library, a man in a green official robe was kneeling on the bluestone slabs, swaying precariously. It was obvious that he was in poor health.

Chai Hui took a look and slapped his thigh, "Hey, how could I forget about this?"

I seemed to have forgotten to tell someone to tell him to leave last night. Could he have been kneeling here until now?
Chai Hui took small steps, ran to the side of the sedan chair and whispered, "Your Highness, the one kneeling over there is the young master of the Qi family, whose name is Che."

When Wei Qingye heard the name, he raised his eyelids, lifted the curtain with one hand and looked over.

Qi Che's knees were numb and swollen from kneeling. He had not eaten or drunk anything from yesterday noon to this morning, and he could no longer hold on.

The problem was, he knelt here and thought for a long time, but he didn't know what he had done wrong to deserve such punishment from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

When the sedan passed by him, he heard Chai Hui say, "Master Qi, why don't you hurry up and catch up? What are you dawdling for?"

Qi Che got up from the ground in a panic, followed the sedan chair in a daze, and finally entered the Chongming Hall.

The cool air that blew towards him in the hall made him shiver.

He suddenly remembered the last time he teased Nan Zhiyu in the small garden, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He actually wanted to touch the woman that the Crown Prince liked? !
Qi Che's legs softened, and he knelt in the hall, bent over and kowtowed, saying: "This humble official deserves death, please punish me, Your Highness."

Inside the hall, the only sound was the rustling of pages of memorials being read on the podium.

The longer Qi Che waited for the Crown Prince's response, the more uncertain he felt. He felt that his life might be over!

Just when his vision became blurry and his consciousness was unclear, the clear voice of His Highness reached his ears.

"Young Master Qi said that he deserves to die, but I wonder what crime he has committed?" The prince narrowed his eyes slightly, and his voice was calm and emotionless.

Qi Che's back was already soaked with cold sweat. He swallowed his saliva and answered carefully: "I shouldn't have had any improper thoughts about Yue Fengyi, but there is nothing wrong between me and Yue Fengyi. There is nothing wrong with anything."

Chai Hui secretly glanced at the prince, and noticing his gradually gloomy expression, he knew that His Highness was angry.

This time, Young Master Qi is going to be in trouble!

"Clear and innocent?" Wei Qingye sneered, "If not, do you think you can still kneel here and plead guilty to me?"

Qi Che's forehead touched the cold ground, and his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, "Thank you, Your Highness, for sparing my life."

"Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided."

After the words fell, Qi Che's hands couldn't help but clench, "Thank you, Your Highness."

"If you deserve it so easily, then give me fifty strokes of the cane!" The memorial in his hand was closed casually, and the prince looked at him with a cold look.

Chai Hui, who was standing by, raised his mouth slightly, and the man kneeling on the ground suddenly raised his head and asked in disbelief: "Your Highness, are you really going to abuse your power for a woman?"

Nan Zhiyu is just a little concubine in the Prime Minister's Mansion, why should she be punished so severely?
After being hit with fifty sticks, I’m afraid he will report his life to the King of Hell!
In the future in Jingzhou City, both the Nan family and the Qi family will not be able to hold their heads up because of him.

"How dare you!" The clear voice was mixed with intimidating sharpness, "Are you questioning my decision?"

Qi Che closed his eyes, but finally kowtowed to accept the punishment.

On the high platform, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not at all surprised by his answer, "You have admitted your guilt, go and receive your punishment!"

After Qi Che stood up, his body swayed twice, and then he dragged his heavy steps out of the hall.

The Crown Prince instantly lost the mood to read the memorials, and casually threw the purple brush in his hand onto the table. "If you can't even withstand fifty strokes of the cane, what kind of man are you?"

"I don't know why her eyesight is so bad that she could fall for such a pretty boy."

Chai Hui did not dare to say anything, for fear of exposing the Crown Prince's secret jealousy.

Before the last fifty strokes of the stick were over, the man had already fainted.

Chai Hui waved his hand in disdain, "Just send him back. Do you want him to stay in Chongming Palace to recuperate?"

If it weren't for the Qi and Nan families, that short-sighted scoundrel wouldn't even have the chance to leave.

To be honest, this matter is all the fault of Ming Zhaoyi and Nan Yunu. It's such a hot day, can't they just be quiet? Do they have to play those tricks?
The candlelight in Chongming Hall flickered as the Crown Prince reviewed memorials until late at night. The door to Jiangyunxuan was tightly closed, and no one was seen. Even the brocade box sent by the Prime Minister's wife in the afternoon did not receive a response from Nan Zhiyu.

The next morning, Lianyue and Qingdai opened the door worriedly and saw a man kneeling on the floor with his back straight, copying scriptures in his hands.

"My lady, you just knelt like this all night?" Qingdai looked worried and lifted her up. She reached out and lifted up her skirt, only to see that the skin around her knees was badly swollen and purple.

Lian Yue took out the ointment with a stern face, and the two of them worked for a while before they finally treated her injuries.

Nan Zhiyu looked listless, and her glassy eyes were devoid of color. "Qingdai, if I hadn't delayed her return, Auntie wouldn't have left like this. Will she say that she doesn't blame me, but in her heart she resents me to the extreme..."

Qingdai held her hand distressedly and answered firmly, "No, Auntie won't resent you."

"No, I have to leave the palace and choose a new place to place my aunt's ashes." Nan Zhiyu clenched the handkerchief in her hand and raised her eyelids, "Go to Chongming Palace and find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Without his permission, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to accomplish this.

With the support of Qingdai and Lianyue, Nan Zhiyu walked to the front of Chongming Palace with difficulty.

"Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in there?" she asked the guard at the door.

The guard remembered that she was the noble who was carried in by His Highness himself before, and replied in a low voice: "His Highness is inside."

Nan Zhiyu felt relieved when she heard this. As long as the person was there, it was fine.

Chai Hui saw her from a distance and went in to report, but the Crown Prince just said "No."

Chai Hui stood there in a daze. Could it be that His Highness has not calmed down yet?

This jealous person is too hard to appease.

I've been coaxing myself for so long, but I still haven't succeeded!

"Eunuch Xiao Chai, does His Highness have time now?" Nan Zhiyu asked respectfully.

Chai Hui smiled bitterly and cleverly stood in front of Nan Zhiyu, "Yue Fengyi, His Highness said he doesn't want to see you."

Nan Zhiyu was stunned for a moment, then she realized, "Is there anyone else serving in the palace?"

Chai Hui quickly waved his hands and denied, "Yue Fengyi misunderstood. His Highness punished Young Master Qi yesterday and did not finish reviewing the memorials until midnight."

Nan Zhiyu didn't expect that the Crown Prince had not yet gotten over this matter. He was too petty!

"In that case, I will not disturb Your Highness." Nan Zhiyu held Qingdai's hand and turned away without stopping.

Lian Yue rolled her eyes at him in anger and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness really doesn't want to see the young lady?"

Chai Hui said innocently: "Can I still lie to you?"

"Then let Your Highness regret it then!" Lian Yue rolled his eyes and turned away.

Chai Hui reached out his hand to ask what happened, but failed to stop him, and couldn't help but sigh.

It’s so hard to be a slave!

 Today's chapter has been updated, please feel free to read it. The female goose deserves to be pampered, and the prince is a jealous person with a hard mouth but a soft heart.
