King Dingbei glanced at Lin Xiuyan coldly. She sat there quietly, looking delicate and weak.
But he has been angry with her several times!
His liver hurts!
He took a deep breath and said, "Ye Jingxian, you still haven't apologized to your sister-in-law!"
Asking Ye Jingxian to apologize to Lin Xiuyan, whom he felt was inferior, was more uncomfortable than killing him.
It's just that Zong Zheng is here at this time, and even if King Pingnan wants to favor him, he can't be too straightforward.
He could only grit his teeth and say, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry!"
Lin Xiuyan sniffed and said, "Although your voice is a little softer, you are not sincere enough."
"But I have a broad mind and don't care about you."
"Second brother, if your father is still here, if you do something like this, from now on..."
The veins in front of Xian Xian's forehead are twitching in the night scene.
He really wanted to slap Lin Xiuyan to death.
Zong Zheng said coldly: "Your Majesty, the second young master disrespects you and beats the prince seriously, so you punish him with ten strokes. Isn't that too light?"
King Pingnan could only say: "Come here, drag the second young master down and hit him twenty times!"
He paused for a moment and then said: "Give me the order, if someone in the palace will make an issue about the Crown Princess's background..."
"It is equivalent to insulting this king and will be severely punished!"
Zong Zheng was satisfied after hearing this.
After the two of them went out, when there was no one around, Zong Zheng looked at King Dingbei and said, "Your Majesty, there is no rule without rules."
"Although the prince did not grow up in the palace, he is the eldest son of the palace after all, and he is also the prince, with a noble status."
"He has a gentle temperament, a kind heart, and treats others politely. This is the blessing of Liefeng State."
"You must not let others humiliate him in every way just because he has a good temper."
King Dingbei cursed in his heart: "Even a traitor like Ye Junfei is worthy of being gentle, kind-hearted, and polite to others?"
"This little beast is the best at pretending to be stupid. He has been back in the palace for half a year. Who in the whole palace has not been bullied by him?"
But King Dingbei couldn't say this in front of Zong Zheng because he had no evidence.
He could only say: "Uncle, don't worry, with me here, no one will bully him."
Zong Zheng then nodded with satisfaction: "If he hadn't been shielding Prince Pingnan's Mansion from wind and rain in the capital over the years, something would have happened to Prince Pingnan's Mansion long ago."
"Your Majesty, I know you don't like your son very much, but he is your eldest son after all."
"He has made great contributions to the palace over the years. If you can't even give him basic decency, it will inevitably make people feel cold."
King Pingnan let out a long sigh and said, "Uncle is right."
King Pingnan felt a little helpless because Ye Junfei, the traitor, was too scheming.
He was the master of heaven and earth in the palace, but outside he looked like a courteous, virtuous, gentle and elegant man.
It had only been half a year since he came back, but he had already won the recognition of Zong Zheng and the senior officials of the palace.
Such scheming and means, to a certain extent, are suitable for taking over the throne of King Pingnan.
But King Pingnan really disliked him, and he would not give Ye Junfei the throne.
By the time Princess Pingnan came back from the banquet outside, Ye Jingxian had already completed the execution and was carried into the ancestral hall.
She was shocked when she heard the news!
She just went out for an afternoon today, and something like this happened.
With red eyes, she said to Prince Pingnan: "Why is Your Majesty so cruel? Twenty boards down, Xian'er will be beaten to pieces!"
King Pingnan looked at her and said, "You think I want to take some time off? That beast Ye Junfei invited Zong Zheng over!"
"In such a situation, if I didn't take action, how could Zong Zheng be willing to give up?"
Princess Pingnan's hands were clenched into fists, and her nails were digging into her flesh.
King Pingnan was deeply in love with her as husband and wife, and he felt a little distressed after seeing her like this.
He said warmly: "Don't worry, I told you during the execution that they were not harsh, they were just showing off."
Princess Pingnan leaned into his arms and said, "Even if it's just a show, if twenty boards go down, Xian'er will definitely be injured."
"Your Majesty, the prince's mind is so deep and his temperament is so surly."
"If this continues, if he takes over your position in the future, I'm afraid the other children will have no way to survive!"
King Pingnan's eyes turned fierce: "Don't worry, I will not pass the throne to him."
Princess Pingnan wiped her tears lightly and said: "The prince is very clever, and now that Zongzheng is helping him, it will not be easy for the prince to destroy him even if he wants to."
King Pingnan let out a long sigh, looked at her and said, "I know this well."
Princess Pingnan felt relieved when she heard what he said.
Because she heard it, King Pingnan agreed to let her kill Ye Junfei.
As long as King Pingnan agrees to kill Ye Junfei, it will be much easier for her to do things in the future.
She originally couldn't tolerate Ye Junfei, but this time Ye Junfei dared to beat Ye Jingxian, so she had to speed up her actions.
And that Lin Xiuyan must not be kept!
After King Pingnan and Zong Zheng left, Lin Xiuyan took a look outside and saw no one was around, so she leaned in front of Ye Junfei and gave a thumbs up.
Ye Junfei glanced at her, and she smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are amazing!"
Ye Junfei said quietly: "It's just a method used by women in the back house, and it can't be called powerful."
"Actually, I would rather kill Ye Jingxian with a sword, but if I do, I'm afraid I will be blamed for killing my brothers and sisters."
"I have no foundation in Prince Pingnan's palace, so I can no longer bear this title."
After he finished speaking, he took her hand and said warmly: "I said that as long as I am here, no one will bully you, nor will you insult me."
Lin Xiuyan looked into his gentle peach blossom eyes, and her heart felt warm.
Being protected by him like this is not a bad feeling.
She asked him: "Was Ye Jingxian so arrogant in front of you before?"
Ye Junfei smiled slightly: "Yes, I deliberately allowed him to be so arrogant."
"After all, I came back from the capital. Although the palace is my home, it is a strange home."
"His arrogance just now reflects my gentleness, and at the same time it can make him relax his vigilance. When the time comes, I will teach him a lesson he will never forget."
Lin Xiuyan's eyes moved slightly: "You have carefully arranged this, so you really don't need to use this opportunity on me."
"As for Ye Jingxian, I can take care of it myself."
Before she married him, Ye Jingxian was the prince's son. She was at a disadvantage and needed to avoid him.
After she married him, she became Ye Jingxian's sister-in-law. With this status, she was able to take care of Ye Jingxian so much that her own mother didn't recognize him.
"How can it be the same?" Ye Junfei took her hand and said gently: "I am your husband-in-law, and protecting you is what I should do."
