The story of Princess Xiatang's counterattack

Chapter 717 I'll Take You Out

Chapter 717 I'll Take You Out

Xia Houqi was taken aback for a moment, always feeling that if he agreed, he would definitely hear something extraordinary.

then…

"Okay, no problem." Xia Houqi nodded in agreement, this is not a big deal.

It stands to reason that Xia Houyu intends to usurp the throne, and he will be sentenced to the crime of punishing the nine clans.

But he is a member of the royal family himself, and it is impossible for the emperor to kill his own relatives righteously.

Therefore, not to mention the Ye family, Ye Lanzhen has been used to being cautious all these years, and she was often threatened by Xia Houyu, so it is not surprising that she can make such a request.

"Come here." Ye Lanzhen led him to a corner of Beiyuan, where some trees covered up, even if someone came, they would not be found immediately.

Ye Lanzhen didn't hide it either, and directly told Xia Houqi what had happened over the years without reservation.

Xia Houqi opened his mouth wider when he heard it. He thought it was a blast when he ran into Xia Houyu and Wanyue having an affair last time in Bailu Pavilion. He didn't expect that his sister-in-law not only knew, but was also coerced by Xia Houyu to make a connection.

Is Xia Houyu still a person? !
Ye Lanzhen's expression was very calm when she narrated, as if she was not talking about her own affairs, but a story she had heard.

This is even more absurd than what the storyteller said.

But after speaking out, the resentment buried in my heart has come out a little.

"Sister-in-law, come with me, and I'll take you out." Xia Houqi felt that Ye Lanzhen couldn't be allowed to stay in the palace any longer, Xia Houyu was just a pervert.

Ye Lanzhen was stunned. She told Xia Houqi that she wanted him to tell the emperor and convict Xia Houyu. She herself didn't want to live long ago.

What does it mean that Xia Houqi wants to take her away now?
"Don't worry, the members of the Ye family will be fine. I assure you, and didn't you also tell me that Xia Houyu will never come to you at other times except for letting you invite Wanyue into the mansion. Besides, he is also alive." Not long."

"You...you let me think about it." Ye Lanzhen was a little hesitant, Xia Houyu really wouldn't find out?
Originally, she just wanted to die, but she didn't expect to have the hope of surviving. Ye Lanzhen is also a person. If she can escape Xia Houyu and live well, of course she also wants to.

It's just... Does she still have such a chance?

"Sister-in-law, although I can tell my father what you told me, if you can tell my father personally, it will be easier for my father to believe me." Xia Houqi persuaded, the capital is guarded by the imperial forest army, and Xiahou Yu raised his eyebrows. He also met the soldiers, who were at most equal to the Imperial Forest Army in number.

Besides, how can the soldiers raised by Xiahou Yu compare with the Imperial Forest Army guarding the imperial city?

Xia Houqi is still young...

"But, there is someone here to take care of me..." Before Ye Lanzhen finished speaking, she saw an old woman staggering out from under the eaves, holding a scissors in her hand.

The old woman can't speak, her ears are not very good, but her eyes are still good. When she got up at night, she saw Ye Lanzhen and Xia Houqi. What a bad guy.

So I hurried back to the house to find something to protect the princess.

The old man sews and mends on weekdays, only scissors can be used as a weapon, and her hands and scripts are light. What Ye Lanzhen told Xia Houqi is important, and neither of them noticed the old woman.

The old woman stood on the porch holding the scissors for a long time. She saw that Ye Lanzhen and Xia Houqi were just talking, and Xia Houqi didn't do anything to hurt Ye Lanzhen, so she held the scissors for a while, not knowing whether to go out or not.

Later, when I saw Xia Houqi pointing outside while talking, Ye Lanzhen looked hesitant, and the old woman didn't hesitate anymore.

Holding the scissors, she appeared under the moonlight, which directly shocked Xia Houqi and Ye Lanzhen.

When she saw Xia Houqi, would she have misunderstood something?
Ye Lanzhen knew that she was deaf and dumb, so she kept shaking her head and waving her hands, indicating that she was not what she saw.

The old woman suddenly smiled, that smile was full of kindness.

She raised her right hand and swung her backhand at Ye Lanzhen, which meant to let her go.

Ye Lanzhen froze in shock and forgot to put her hands down.

Seeing that she was just staring blankly and not moving, the old woman couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and waved at her again.

The old woman's ears have only gradually become deaf in recent years. The sudden disappearance of the princess in the mansion spread among their servants for a while.

The prince announced to the public that the princess was seriously ill, but he couldn't hide it from the people in the mansion.

There have been rumors about the princess in the mansion.

The old lady is the rough envoy in the mansion, and she has to clean everywhere. Because she can't speak, she is assigned to clean the courtyard where the princess is held.

She ran into what happened in the small courtyard several times. I don't know if the prince felt relieved because she couldn't speak, or because he didn't feel that he didn't need to shy away from the rough servants in the mansion.

Anyway, she is one of the few insiders.

The old woman has no children and has worked in the palace all her life. Every time she goes to sweep the yard, she can hear the princess crying inside, but none of her servants can help her.

Later, she was brought to Beiyuan by Yinquan to serve the princess.

After many years, when she saw the princess again, she felt an inexplicable distress. Ye Lanzhen, who was supposed to be in the prime of life, was not as energetic as a young man like her.

Since entering Beiyuan, she has been doing her best to take care of Ye Lanzhen, although Ye Lanzhen has never spoken to her except when she first met her, calling her "mother-in-law".

Princess, what a pain...

Seeing that someone seemed to take Ye Lanzhen away today, she was very happy. Someone could pull the princess out of this sea of ​​suffering, and she would like to stay here to pray for the princess.

She should have a new life too.

No matter what kind of status this man is, it seems that he is really thinking about the princess. The prince doesn't come to this yard very often. She is a deaf and dumb old lady. What can the prince do with her?

Fearing that Ye Lanzhen didn't understand, she waved her hand vigorously again.

Ye Lanzhen originally thought that she would have no other emotions except indifference, but at this moment her tears flowed down.

Closing her eyes, Ye Lanzhen breathed a sigh of relief. She bowed deeply to the old man, then turned her head and said to Xia Houqi, "I'll go with you."

"Yeah." Xia Houqi nodded.

The old woman smiled gratifiedly, turned around and walked slowly into the house, closed the door, and did not come out again.

Xia Houqi brought Ye Lanzhen out of Prince Ning's mansion, and went to look for Rong Jing the next day. Xia Houqi was very angry. He never expected that Xia Houyu, who was looking at five people and six people, would do something like this... He didn't even know What words to use to describe it.

For the first time, Xia Houqi felt that his language was lacking. It stands to reason that he had learned a lot of words for Mai Tairen, but he couldn't find one that could describe Xia Houyu.

After hearing this, Rong Jing knew it. Although the evidence they had collected before could point to Xia Houyu to a certain extent, if he denied it, he and Xia Houqi would not have strong evidence.

Now that there is Princess Ning, it is much easier to convince the emperor.

At the very least, Xia Houyu had been preparing for forcing the palace to usurp the throne five years ago.
