Chapter 266: Small Fish Arrested
Yuan Xiang was about to say something again, Yun Liyue suddenly spoke again, "Rou'er, do you have this kind of mind? Do you want to follow the Second Highness?"
"No!" Rou'er suddenly knelt down and kowtowed at Yun Liyue and said, "Ru'er saw a black shadow flashing by. Rou'er was afraid that the princess's safety would be threatened, so she wanted these guards to take a look! Rou'er was thinking about the princess and did not dare to have any intentions at all!"
Yun Liyue just sneered and stopped talking.
Qu Lian couldn't help but smile a smug smile on the corner of her lips. Originally, Rou'er had only one testimony, but now there was one more. If I had known that someone would jump out, I wouldn't have let Rou'er come out to testify.
"Okay, then you two are talking about it, where did the thief escape?" The second prince looked at the two and said.
"This," Yuan Xiangyi hesitated, "I didn't see any man in black today, but I just saw Ye Liuyun, the young owner of Pegasus Villa in Mobei!"
"What did you say?"
The second prince suddenly widened his eyes and said, Ye Liuyun? How could he be here?
"It's nonsense!" Yun Liyue suddenly shouted, "Ye Liuyun is far away in Mobei now? Where did you see him?"
"Princess Liyue, you seem a little guilty when you are like this?" Qu Lian looked at Yun Liyue sarcastically, turned to Yuan Xiang and said, "You continue talking!"
If Yuan Xiang had called Ye Liuyun out, maybe Rou'er would not have to be exposed!
"yes!"
Yuanxiang looked up at the second prince and said, "I was fortunate to see Mr. Ye once when I was in the palace! And for several days, one man in white sneaked into the Xiyun Palace and stayed with the princess for a night. The man's figure was exactly the same as Mr. Ye, and he could get so favored by the princess. Yuanxiang thought that it must be Ye Liuyun!"
"Oh? Take this seriously?" A hint of joy flashed across the second prince's face.
"It's true!" Yuan Xiang looked straight into the second prince's eyes and said, "Actually, all the maids who watch the night in Xiyun Hall have seen each other, but they dare not say it."
The second prince stepped forward and helped Yuan Xiang up and said, "Where is he now that Ye Liuyun?"
"This, I'm going to be," Yuan Xiang's face flashed with annoyance. If she had known that the second prince would come to the mansion today, she would have secretly monitored Xiyun Palace tonight. "I'm not on duty tonight, so I don't know!"
"Rou'er!" The second prince turned to Rou'er and said, "Where did you see the figure?"
"Just in Xiyun Palace! Your Highness follows me!" Rou'er stood up and turned to Yun Liyue and said, "I hope Your Highness will forgive you. However, Xiyun Palace is the princess's bedroom, which is related to the princess' safety, and all Rou'er offended you!"
After saying this, Rou'er took a lantern from the maid next to her and led the way to Xiyun Hall.
Xiyun Palace.
"The guards inside and outside have searched for them just now, how could there be any thief?" Zi Jin said to Rou'er.
"Miss Zijin, have you forgotten? There is a dark room here. If the thief accidentally enters the dark room and accidentally hurts the princess, what should I do?" Rou'er said as she walked to the sandalwood ancient shelf on the right side of the main hall, and reached out and twisted a sky-blue long-necked maid bottle in the middle.
Then he heard a "cry!" sound, and the ancient shelf suddenly moved to the side. After a moment, a door was exposed.
"Come on! Go in and search for me!" The second prince said, his voice full of excitement!
Qu Lian couldn't help but turn her proud gaze to Yun Liyue, Humph! Princess Liyue, you are dead now! Not only did Ye Liuyun hide her back to Beijing privately, but she also had an affair with her! When the emperor finds out this crime, I'm afraid there is nothing to say!
"Your Highness, there is someone inside!" A cheer came from the door.
After a while, several guards walked out with a man in white. However, after seeing the man's appearance, the second prince's face suddenly became gloomy. A smile flashed in the third prince's narrow eyes, but Qu Lian was so shocked that she took two steps back.
"Second cousin, third cousin, what are you doing?" The man in white clothes, tall and looked like a man, turned out to be An Xiaoman!
"What are you doing like this?" The second prince's voice was filled with dissatisfaction.
An Xiaoman pouted and said, "What are you not doing? Isn't Liyue sick? So, I pretended to be Ye Liuyun, so I relieved her lovesickness and let her get better as soon as possible! What are you doing?"
The third prince said with a warm smile, "We were chasing a thief in the palace and arrived here?"
An Xiaoman curled his lips. Although he didn't say anything, his expression obviously did not believe in the third prince's words.
"Rou'er?" Yun Liyue turned to Rou'er and said, "Miss An is the black shadow you saw?"
"This, this," Rou'er's face couldn't help but look ugly, "It was dark at that time, and I didn't see it clearly. It turned out to be Miss An!"
"Hmph!" Yun Liyue snorted coldly and turned to the second prince and said, "Second Prince, do you think you still need to search? Otherwise, I will find some more people and demolish all the princess's mansions for you to search?"
"Don't be angry with Liyue, the second brother is also thinking about your safety?" The third prince Nalan Can said to Yunliyue with a smile on his face.
The second prince looked at Qu Lian with a ugly face, but saw her red and swollen face looking confused, so he turned to Yun Liyue and said, "Princess Liyue, offended you! Since there are no thieves in the mansion, I will search elsewhere with the Third Emperor! Let's go!"
As he said that, he waved his hand and led everyone outwards.
"Slow down!"
Yun Liyue suddenly spoke, "Second Prince, you can leave, but she! You must stay!" Yun Liyue pointed at Qu Lian and said, "Don't forget what you said yourself?"
A hint of embarrassment flashed across the second prince's face. If he kept Qu Lian here, how could he communicate with Princess Minghui after he went back? But if he didn't keep Qu Lian, Yun Liyue would not have given up?
Seeing the second prince's embarrassment, a trace of calculating flashed in the third prince Nalan Can's eyes, and turned to Qu Lian and asked, "Qu Lian, don't let the Second Prince make things difficult for you. You said yourself, are you willing to stay? If you don't want to, I believe the second brother will take you out of the princess's mansion."
Qu Lian looked at Yun Liyue without any trace, but saw a sneer on Yun Liyue’s face, as if saying, “You can try it!”
"The Second Prince," Qu Lian gritted his teeth, "I don't want the Second Prince to make things difficult for him. I just hope that the Second Prince will return to the palace quickly and tell Princess Minghui the matter of the princess's mansion truthfully." Qu Lian gritted her teeth and deliberately emphasized the word "The Truth".
