"Your Majesty, Princess Nangong is here." Feng Qing knew that the Prince was in a bad mood at the moment, so she just reported outside the door, then opened the door and motioned for Nangong Yan to come in.
Nangong Yan stood still and waited for Chu Ye's permission to enter. Then she raised her feet and walked in, very politely.
Ever since she moved into Prince Chen's Mansion, she has always behaved very well and abided by the rules.
She wanted to tell Chu Ye that it would never be wrong to choose her as his concubine.
"Prince Chen." Nangong Yan walked in and saw Chu Ye, who was sitting behind the desk, who was extremely handsome and heroic. Her eyes were full of admiration and she spoke softly.
As she opened her mouth, she smelled a strong smell of blood and frowned without any trace.
Why is there the smell of blood here?
Could it be that Chu Ye just dealt with the servant?
She wisely didn't ask anything.
Chu Ye didn't say anything, but stood up and walked towards Nangong Yan.
When Nangong Yan saw this, her heart moved, and she suddenly felt shy and panicked.
What did Chu Ye want to do? Why did he just walk towards her without saying a word?
Although she lives in Prince Chen's Mansion, she has not yet married Chu Ye. If Chu Ye...
Her face suddenly turned red.
Chu Ye walked directly to Nangong Yan, but his target was not Nangong Yan.
Bending down, he lifted up a piece of cloth covering the ground, and what was covered underneath turned out to be a dead body!
Instantly, the smell of blood was several times stronger than before!
"Princess Nangong, is he your subordinate?" There was no smile on Chu Ye's face, and his voice was so cold that it made people's hearts tremble.
While talking, Chu Ye had already walked back to his seat.
It seemed that he came here just to lift the piece of cloth.
Nangong Yan smelled the pungent smell of blood, glanced at the corpse subconsciously, and her expression suddenly changed slightly.
Of course she recognizes it!
This person is exactly the person she sent to keep an eye on Xie Wenwu!
Was it Chu Ye who killed him?
Chu Ye killed him to warn her not to get involved in Xie Wenwu's matter?
no!
Can't admit it!
"Prince Chen, this person is not..." She was about to deny it when she suddenly remembered Chu Ye's cold tone just now, as if she had determined that this person was related to her.
She rolled her words of denial around her mouth and said, "I don't know what this princess is going to do."
"It's true that he belongs to my princess, but two days ago, he said that a secret order came from Nanzhao Kingdom, asking him to perform a secret mission, and then he disappeared without a trace. Did he...failed to perform the mission and was killed by the other party?
?”
Nangong Yan's mind was spinning rapidly, and she immediately thought of the reason.
The temperature in Chu Ye's eyes gradually dropped, and his tone became even more shockingly cold, "Princess Nangong, I will report to my father tomorrow that you are not used to living in my palace and want to move out as soon as possible."
"Do you want to go to the inn? Or look for another mansion? I will make arrangements for you."
Nangong Yan was shocked!
Is Chu Ye trying to drive her out? Just because of a corpse?
She must not leave!
"Prince Chen, what do you mean by this? You have made very careful arrangements. This princess is very comfortable living in the mansion and is not used to it. Moreover, you and I are getting married soon. If I move out at this time, it is inevitable that someone will
Talking about gossip." Nangong Yan raised her eyes and happened to see Chu Ye's cold eyes, and her heart sank.
"I will disgrace Nanzhao, and you will also disgrace Wanqi." She could only point out the relationship between the two countries, hoping to change Chu Ye's mind.
"Princess Minghui lives in the inn. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for you to live there too. Tomorrow, I will ask someone to find a house for you in the capital. When the house is selected, you can move there." Chu Ye picked up a
As part of his official duties, he looked over and didn't look at Nangong Yan again.
"The king still has official business to deal with. Princess Nangong, please excuse me."
Nangong Yan swayed, but Chu Ye didn't even give her a chance!
To put it bluntly, she was just letting people stare at Xie Wenwu. Is it worth letting Chu Ye drive her out of Prince Chen's Mansion?
"Prince Chen, this princess..." She wanted to say a few more words, but saw that Chu Ye showed no sign of raising his head, so she swallowed her words again.
She spent constant time with Chu Ye and got to know him well.
Once a decision is made, even if Emperor Zhaochu opens his mouth, he may not be able to change it!
However, she was unwilling to leave Prince Chen's Mansion just like that!
"Farewell." She could only leave first and make other plans.
She must not leave Prince Chen's Mansion before her wedding!
When she walked out, she saw Feng Qing beside her. She narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "Guard Feng, where did you find the body in the house? King Chen seems to be very angry."
She wanted to find out what was going on.
Feng Qing bowed and thought to himself: The prince has already seen through this matter, but Nangong Yan is still pretending to be confused in front of him.
Naturally, he would not point it out, and responded: "The person sent by the prince to keep an eye on Xie Wenwu was killed. The wounds on his body were the same as the wounds on the man in the house. They were made by the same person."
Nangong Yan was stunned. It was not Chu Ye who killed her, but Xie Wenwu's!
At this point, she instantly understood the reason why Chu Han was angry: she had stolen Chu Ye's clues about Xie Wenwu!
In fact, she didn't intend to steal, but accidentally learned that Chu Ye had targeted Xie Wenwu!
She knew that Emperor Zhaochu had been looking for the whereabouts of everyone in the General's Mansion. She originally planned to dedicate Xie Wenwu to Emperor Zhaochu in exchange for some benefits, but she did not expect that not only Xie Wenwu would find out, but Chu Ye would also learn about it.
His brows were furrowed, his mind was racing, and he walked back.
…
When Xie Yao returned to the capital, he happened to be in time for the city gate to close at the last moment.
After entering the city, the carriage went straight to Prince Han's Mansion.
In the darkness, there were several figures. After seeing the carriage Xie Yao was riding in, they flew away and rushed to Prince Chen's Mansion.
Prince Chen's Mansion.
"Your Majesty, Yan Jun has just returned to Beijing in a carriage, and it was Wu Feng who drove him." Someone reported.
"Yeah." Chu Ye lowered his eyes to deal with official duties and just made a sound from his nose.
The man retreated quickly, and then Feng Qing stepped in quickly, "Your Majesty, judging from the wounds on the two corpses, both were killed with one blow, which proves that the other party's martial arts are extremely high! And among Xie Wenwu's group, there was no
Someone with such high martial arts skills.”
"My humble guess is that the person who did it is most likely Wu Feng!"
"Yeah." Chu Ye's reaction was still very light, as if he didn't care at all.
"Your Majesty..." Feng Qing did not expect that the Prince's reaction would be so calm.
"Solve more problems in the future. There is no need to do such simple things." Chu Ye still didn't raise his head, but there was a hint of displeasure in his tone.
Feng Qing was trembling and hurriedly bowed, "Yes! In this humble position, please remember the prince's teachings!"
After saying that, he left.
Chu Ye looked at the official business in front of him without focusing his eyes.
He curled his lips slightly, and Xie Yao asked Wu Feng to remove the spies instead of letting Xie Wenwu's people take action, which proved that Xie Yao recognized his strength.
