Chapter 170
When the carriage arrived at the gate of Dingyanghou's Mansion, Jun Qianlan had already left first. Ye Lingxi looked at the blanket covering her body, and there was a smile on her face. He was careful.

"Chuchu, there are many interesting things going to happen today." Before leaving, someone seemed to whisper in her ear.

Ye Lingxi smiled. The fun things for him might not be the same as for her. She threw off the blanket and got off the carriage. As soon as she got off, she saw the officers and soldiers surrounding the gate of the mansion.

"Princess, you are back." Seeing that it was Ye Lingxi's carriage, the servants of the mansion immediately came out to welcome her. Although they usually treat her in a perfunctory manner, it is now a matter of the survival of the Dingyanghou Mansion, and only the princess in front of her is here. can save this crisis.

Ye Lingxi glanced at the people around, and said indifferently, "What's going on?" Judging by the attire of these officers and soldiers, they belonged to the Ministry of Criminal Affairs. It seems that after Yu Qian took office, the efficiency of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs was indeed much higher.

"Returning to the princess, Mr. Yu from the Ministry of Punishment suddenly led someone into the mansion, and he is talking to Lord Hou in the hall now. It seems to be about the assassination of His Highness the King during the siege scene last time." The servant whispered.

Ye Lingxi nodded, and walked in. The corner of her mouth curled up in a vague arc, wondering if anything interesting would happen next.

In the hall, Ye Yuanheng stood obediently below, with his head down, not daring to look at the man on the main seat.

A young man in a vermilion official uniform stood aside, his brows furrowed tightly, "Master Hou, you arranged for a killer to assassinate the current prince. Now that you have all the evidence, do you still want to deny it? Hurry up and do it!"

"Your Highness, I really don't know why people from the Ye family were found in the paddock. I really didn't do this thing. Even if I gave the official a hundred courage, the official would not dare." Ye Yuanheng argued , with a look of horror on his face.

Wang Duan paused holding the teacup, put the teacup heavily on the table, looked at him and said in a cold voice: "Master Yu is right, among the evidence left by the murderers in the paddock, there are indeed I found the mark of your Dingyanghou Mansion, this matter has nothing to do with you, this king will not believe it at all."

With a thud, Ye Yuanheng knelt down on the ground, yelling for injustice, "Your Highness, I really don't know what's going on, if it really happened, how could I be so stupid as to leave evidence. And your highness, what reason does the lower official have to assassinate His Royal Highness King Jing, who was with His Highness King Jing that day was also the lower official's own daughter, who said that the poison of a tiger does not eat its offspring, and even if the lower official doesn't like her, he will not want to kill her Killed her. There must be someone trying to frame the subordinate under the banner of the Ye family."

Duan Wang frowned, and glanced at Yu Qian who was standing beside him, and Yu Qian happened to see him and nodded at him.He walked directly in front of Ye Yuanheng, "Does Hou Ye think someone wants to frame you?"

Ye Yuanheng lowered his head, his eyes flickered, and hesitantly said: "This, the lower officials don't know..."

"I heard that the relationship between the aunt in your mansion and Princess Chongguang is not very good." Duan Wang said suddenly.

Yu Qian frowned, and glanced at Duan Wang, apparently dissatisfied with his sudden opening.

Ye Yuanheng opened his mouth, forced a smile and said: "The concubines in the mansion are not sensible, so..."

"A little aunt dares to be disrespectful to the princess. The family education in Dingyang Hou Mansion is good." Duan Wang's stern voice came, and his dark eyes swept over Ye Yuanheng, "A little aunt actually tried to assassinate the princess in vain. Princess Chao, who gave her the courage."

Yu Qian's face changed slightly when he heard the words, and he cupped his hands at King Duan and said, "Your Highness, this matter has not been clarified yet, and it is too early to make a conclusion. You must know that among those assassins, there are members of the Bai family..."

"Then what's not clear, the concubine of Dingyang Hou's mansion, the Bai family, has a vicious heart and hates Princess Chongguang's aloof status, so she used the power of the Ye family and the Bai family to try to kill the princess. King Jing was just implicated." Duan Wang directly interrupted Yu Qian's words, and gave him a cold look, "Master Yu, my father has already handed over this case to this king, so this king has the final say."

Yu Qian's pupils tightened, looked at Duan Wang's stern face, and said in a deep voice: "But the emperor asked His Highness to find out the truth, not so perfunctory!"

"Yu Qian, you are presumptuous!" Duan Wang patted the table and stood up, staring at the young man in front of him fiercely, "Don't rely on your father's favor, you can be presumptuous in front of this king. kick you out."

Yu Qian looked at the man in front of him, it was really aggrieved to work with these princes, everyone had ghosts in their hearts, and who cares about the truth, the fire in his heart for the past few days needed to be vented, and now he was ignited by King Duan, he Step forward and prepare to fight back.

"What's the matter, so lively?" A clear voice came from outside the door, "Father, what are you kneeling on the ground for?"

Everyone's eyes fell on the door in an instant, and a woman in a long lavender dress walked in. She had a three-way smile on her clear face, gentle and calm, and there was a bit of surprise in her bright eyes. Ye Yuanheng walked up to King Duan and blessed him, "I have met His Highness Prince Duan."

Duan Wang looked at the woman in front of him, and for some reason, he always felt that there seemed to be some changes in her body, did she become more beautiful?No, because her appearance is not bad, it is her temperament, her smile is as gentle as a spring breeze, which can soothe the frizz in people's hearts.Those bright eyes sparkle, making people unable to resist exploring the vastness and brightness.

"Xiaguan has seen Princess Chongguang." Yu Qian who was on the side suddenly saluted, and this sound just brought King Duan back to his senses.

A flash of embarrassment flashed in his eyes. He was actually attracted by this cowardly and incompetent woman. He must have a brain problem.Duan Wang looked at Ye Lingxi with a slightly colder gaze.

Ye Lingxi smiled slightly, "Master Yu doesn't need to be too polite, but I'm a little curious about what Master Yu brought so many people from the Ministry of Punishment to the Dingyanghou Mansion? My Dingyanghou Mansion has always been law-abiding, so it's best for Mr. Yu to give an explanation. "

Yu Qian cupped his hands and said in a deep voice: "Princess Qi, we found the tokens of the Bai family and the Ye family in the relics of the murderers who assassinated the princess and King Jing in the Mulan paddock. We suspect that this assassination is related to the Bai family and the Ye family."

"Your Excellency Yu is joking, how could there be someone from the Ye family among those murderers." The smile on Ye Lingxi's face was a little stiff, although it was an excuse, but she looked at it with a bit of embarrassment, understanding, and helplessness.

Yu Qian's eyes sank, and he continued: "Whether you are from the Ye family or not, you will only know after the interrogation. Therefore, the princess, Lord Hou, offended."

Duan Wang looked at Yu Qian and shouted coldly, "Yu Qian, who do you think you took away? This is the son-in-law of the eldest princess, and now the father of Princess Chongguang. You said he murdered Princess Chongguang. This is a slap in the face of me!" On the face of the royal family? This king said that this matter was done by an aunt in the Ye Mansion, and that aunt should be brought for interrogation first."

"Aunt Bai, she..." Ye Lingxi said hesitantly, with a sigh flashing across his face.

Yu Qian glanced at Ye Lingxi, something flashed in his eyes, he suddenly agreed with Duan Wang's statement, and said directly to Ye Yuanheng: "Master Hou, please invite that Aunt Bai out."

Seeing this, Ye Yuanheng stood up and gave some instructions to Li Zhong below.

Ye Lingxi walked to the seat next to King Duan and sat down with a calm expression, as if she didn't see the darkened face of King Duan, but was drinking tea by herself.

King Duan frowned. When will this woman be able to sit on an equal footing with him, but now they have almost the same status. In terms of status, he is a prince, and she is a super-rank princess with a title. The fiefdom is a slightly fertile land, and it covers a wide area.He never imagined that the woman who had returned from embarrassment in the past would one day stand in front of him as an equal.

Hmph, she was just lucky enough to have a face that is easily pampered.

Not long after, Aunt Bai was brought here, and her heart was in her throat when she came in. Looking at the posture of Duan Wang and Yu Qian, her body couldn't help shaking. She probably heard about it. .

"Bold Mrs. Bai, you dare to murder the current prince and princess, you can be convicted." Yu Qian sneered directly.

Bai's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly shouted, "I'm wronged, my lord. I don't even dare to borrow my concubine's ten guts. Someone must be framing my concubine behind." The woman sitting at the top, "is Princess Chongguang. She has always regarded my concubine's body as a thorn in her eyes and a thorn in her flesh. She can't see my concubine's body in good condition, so please be careful."

As expected of a husband and wife, their excuses are all the same. Ye Lingxi raised her eyebrows and looked at the Bai family below. Aren't the daughters of the Bai family famously smart?How could she come back alive more and more.

Hearing this, Yu Qian instantly understood that Bai really hated Princess Chongguang, and he looked at Bai with displeasure, "The princess didn't say anything wrong about you when she came in, but you dare to frame Princess Chongguang?" , it seems that you are not disrespectful to the princess on weekdays, come here, give me ten slaps!"

"No, I'm wronged, I didn't..." Bai yelled immediately, and she looked at Ye Yuanheng next to her pleadingly, "Master Hou, Master Hou..."

Ye Yuanheng didn't seem to see it, frowned and said: "As a concubine, you dare to be disrespectful to the princess. It seems that this Marquis is too tolerant of you on weekdays. Your Bai family is powerful. It's a blessing, this Marquis can't control it, that's why my daughter has been wronged, but the Japanese Marquis can't bear it anymore, this Marquis can't afford a woman like you."

Bai Shi looked at Ye Yuanheng in disbelief, he actually said such things in front of people, he wants to divorce her?Does he still have a conscience? If she hadn't helped him take care of the Hou's mansion all these years, the Dingyang Hou's mansion would have been in decline long ago. Now that something happened, he would kick her away to protect himself? !
"Ye Yuanheng, your conscience is eaten by dogs. If it weren't for me, you think you can still win the princess and keep the foundation of the Dingyanghou Mansion. You might have gone to the street to beg for food. How dare you ask for it?" Divorce me, I'll kill you." Bai Shi roared, looked at Ye Yuanheng ferociously, and rushed towards him.
