Chapter 588: Jealous of the Future Son-In-Law
Translator: Sissy That Walk
Ye Lingyue gave a cold laugh sarcastically.
“Anyhow, Her Highness was hurt in the Ye Manor. Moreover, the wrongdoer is Hong Fang, the biological father of Marquis Yue. I hope that Marquis Yue can explain why he is here.” Cong Lv heard Xue Pianran’s words and frowned. He did not expect Xue Pianran to resort to sophistry.
Princess Qingbi had already received due punishment. The most important task now was to find the real culprit. Otherwise, the alliance between the two states would be ruined since Princess Qingbi’s reputation was badly hurt.
“Mr. Cong made the point. I also want to know why the person who was supposed to be beheaded several days ago was found in my manor.” All in Da Xia knew that Ye Lingyue had an extremely bad relationship with Hong Fang. So it was impossible for Hong Fang to do anything for Ye Lingyue.
“It is a pity that the wrongdoer is dead.” Xue Pianran sighed regretfully. But she was quite joyful in truth.
Hong Fang had already been cut into pieces by Princess Qingbi.
In this case, Ye Lingyue had no way to prove her innocence.
“Not necessarily. Sometimes, dead people tell more truths than living persons.” Ye Lingyue smiled.
Xue Pianran and Princess Qingbi were at a loss, having no idea what Ye Lingyue was talking about.
Ye Lingyue walked to the dead body of Hong Fang.
He was cut to death by Princess Qingbi and his good look was totally ruined.
Everyone seeing his corpse could not help frowning.
Ye Lingyue was about to bend over when a person did this ahead of her.
“It’s filthy. Let me do this.” Feng Shen grabbed Ye Lingyue’s hand and made her stand behind.
“Lord, be careful! It might dirty your hands.” The knife warrior walked forward in a hurry but was deterred by the look in Feng Shen’s eyes.
Feng Shen bent and did a careful examination before he found a pill from the shabby clothes of Hong Fang.
It was a pill stained with blood that had not been fully digested.
The jade-like fingers of Feng Shen were dirtied by blood.
He carefully wiped his hands clean and passed the pill to Ye Lingyue.
Xue Pianran standing aside was shocked to see this. For this woman, Feng Shen was even willing to...
Feng Shen was always a neat freak. But he could even change this long-term habit for Ye Lingyue just to prevent her from touching something filthy.
Ye Lingyue and Feng Shen looked at each other and there was a special feeling rising in their hearts.
This man truly understood her.
It seemed that he could understand every word and act of her immediately.
“Today the manor was under tight security and ordinary people had no way to sneak in. Hong Fang was a condemned prisoner and he could only come inside with the help of this pill. The pill is called the Jade Toad Pill and can change the appearance of a person.” Ye Lingyue used the cauldron breath to check for a while before she identified the category of the pill.
“Marquis Yue, what çan this pill prove? Although Hong Fang has a bad relationship with you, he was your father after all. Maybe the pill was given to him by you.” Cong Lv questioned.
“Well? You mean I made this pill? Mr. Cong, since you are not an alchemist, you may not know the rules. Every pill, especially Level-6 pills like the Jade Toad Pill, is branded after being made in case that there is some side effect after someone takes them. Sacred Maiden, am I right?” Ye Lingyue glimpsed at Xue Pianran.
Xue Pianran did not know Ye Lingyue’s real intentions and just nodded subconsciously.
On the Qing Continent, it was a rule to brand Level-6 pills and the above.
“Then let’s see whether this pill was made by me.” Ye Lingyue used some force in her fingers and the pill had a crack.
After the pill broke apart, there were characters of “the Dan Palace”.
Seeing such characters, all present were dumbfounded.
Throughout the Qing Continent, only the Dan Palace of the North Qing dared to leave such characters.
Xue Pianran opened her eyes wide. She could never expect the Jade Toad Pill to come from the Dan Palace.
Even Princess Qingbi was stupefied.
“Xue Pianran, is it you? You gave him the pill and ordered him to kill Ye Lingyue? You have put me in such an awful situation!” Princess Qingbi grabbed Xue Pianran.
Among all the people present, only Xue Pianran came from the Dan Palace. She had just arrived in the North Qing. In just several days after her arrival, Hong Fang got the Jade Toad Pill and fled from prison. All this made Xue Pianran quite suspicious.
Moreover, Xue Pianran liked Feng Shen but Feng Shen loved Ye Lingyue. In this case, it was possible for Xue Pianran to frame Ye Lingyue.
Only the Sacred Maiden could easily give such a precious pill to others.
Someone from the Dan Palace gave Hong Fang the Jade Toad Pill and then Hong Fang hurt Princess Qingbi. The whole thing was getting much more complicated and confusing.
“Cong Lv, you’d better give me an explanation. Why does a condemned prisoner of Da Xia have the pill of the Dan Palace? If it is not clarified, there will never be an alliance between Da Xia and the North Qing.” Xia Houqi gazed at the pill and flew into a rage.
“Your Majesty, calm down, please. I will surely check out what on earth happened. Guards, send the princess back as soon as possible.” Cong Lv was quite annoyed, and he ordered the guards to take away Princess Qingbi despite her crying.
Xue Pianran was at a total loss and glared at Ye Lingyue in anger.
Feng Shen was, after all, someone from the North Qing. He comforted Ye Lingyue and then left with the knife warrior.
The wedding banquet at the Ye Manor was ended unhappily due to this accident.
In the deep night, after all the guests left, Yun Sheng on the roof of the Ye Manor looked quite amused after watching the big scene.
“Night Fox, your trick is truly sinister. You have killed two birds with one stone”. Yun Sheng’s eyes were sparkling, and her delicate face was full of excitement.
“All is attributable to your help.” Ye Beiming squinted and held his wife by the arms, watching her lively expressions full of love.
His beloved wife had long since become a mother but still could show girly expressions from time to time. How he loved such expressions!
Ye Beiming was quite proud of what his daughter had just said and done.
He just casually hid the Jade Toad Pill in the clothes of Hong Fang. Surprisingly, his daughter could use the pill to completely reverse the situation.
The genes could determine everything. How smart his daughter was!
“By the way, is that man standing before Yue’er the one you have talked about?” Yun Sheng blinked and asked curiously.
“Yes, it is him.” Ye Beiming was still holding his lovely wife and rubbed against her neck.
“Nice! I can tell from his look that he is the right person for Yue’er.” It seemed that Yun Sheng had already acknowledged Feng Shen as her son-in-law. Her face showed full satisfaction.
