Chapter 183: Prince Ling Becomes a Heartless Man

Xiao Jingheng narrowed his eyes and stared at the prince and the officials behind him.

He was not stupid, so how could he not see that this was their plan?

It seemed that the prince had no way to explain to Shen Linchuan, and he himself did not want to marry Wen Ruqing, so he conspired to stage this.

Ah.

He was careless.

"Explain what?"

Xiao Jingheng glanced at the prince and said, "Your princess insisted on sticking to me, and I haven't settled the score with you yet.

I am not married yet. If this gets out and people misunderstand me, it will damage my reputation. How is His Royal Highness going to compensate me?"

The prince choked, and then he responded and scolded, "You mean my princess is shamelessly pestering you?"

He looked at Wen Ruqing and asked, "Qing'er, is that so?"

"Brother Heng."

Wen Ruqing looked at Xiao Jingheng with tears in her eyes and said, "Brother Heng, you clearly promised Qing'er that you would marry me, how can you go back on your word?

It was you who asked Qing'er to seduce the prince, to be your spy, to help you get information and do things for you, and you said you would not let me down."

She cried so hard that her eyes were wet, looking so pitiful.

The officials from the Ministry of Rites who were following the Crown Prince opened their eyes wide in astonishment.

Everyone was whispering and talking among themselves, and they all regarded His Royal Highness Prince Ling as a heartless man.

"Okay, okay you guys!"

The prince's face turned pale, and he said to the people behind him: "You all heard that Prince Ling instructed Miss Wen to seduce me with the intention of doing something bad.

I will go to the palace to meet my father and let him make the decision!"

He snorted coldly, turned around and was about to go to the palace to file a complaint, when he suddenly heard a woman's voice behind him: "Your Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince turned around and saw Song Shiwei standing not far away. She walked over quickly and asked bluntly, "What do you mean, Your Highness?

You promised me that you would cancel your engagement with the Wen family and ask me to marry you, why did you go back on your word?

You asked me to get close to His Royal Highness Prince Ling, to seduce him, and to find out his secrets. I did everything you told me to do, but you broke your promise and wanted to marry someone else?

Were all those vows you made to me before false?

If you don't give me an explanation today, I will go to His Majesty to seek justice!"

The prince was stunned, and he denied it flatly: "What nonsense are you talking about?

When did I ever ask you to do such a thing? Don't try to frame me here."

Song Shiwei curled her lips, looked at the stunned officials and said, "My lords, what I just said was indeed false.

But how can you be sure that what Miss Wen said just now is true?

How can you just throw a basin of dirty water on others without any evidence just by talking?

Wen Ruqing was not clean and did not want to marry the prince, so she conspired with the prince to stage such a drama, hoping that Prince Ling would take the blame.

We are not fools, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell what is going on.

In my opinion, there is no need to report this to His Majesty. Just send him directly to the authorities.

Didn't Miss Wen say that His Royal Highness Prince Ling instructed her to seduce the Crown Prince? Then let her tell us when she and His Royal Highness Prince Ling met?

What color clothes were you wearing? What was the weather like that day? How many times did you meet? How long did you stay together?

As long as she can explain it clearly and it can be verified by the Dali Temple, then this matter is true.

If she can't explain it clearly, it would be deliberate slander and a crime of deceiving the emperor!"

The officials felt that what Song Shiwei said made sense, and they all seemed to agree with her.

Wen Ruqing's face was pale and he looked a little panicked.

Song Shiwei walked up to her and said, "Miss Wen, I was just joking with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

I believe you also played a joke on His Royal Highness Prince Ling, right?"

Wen Ruqing's lips were trembling and she stared at Song Shiwei.

Thinking that all this was caused by her, she suddenly lost her mind.

She pulled out a dagger from her bosom, stabbed at Song Shiwei viciously and said, "I'm going to kill you!"

"Qingqing."

Xiao Jingheng's expression changed in shock, and he kicked a stone and hit Wen Ruqing's knee.

Wen Ruqing stumbled and fell to the ground, and his face hit the dagger in his hand.

"what!"

Wen Ruqing screamed in pain, lying on the ground covering his face, blood flowing out from between his fingers.

Xiao Jingheng protected Song Shiwei and stepped back a little, saying sternly: "Miss Wen committed a crime in the street, send her to the Dali Temple!"

Qing Mo immediately helped Wen Ruqing up, locked her hands and was about to send her to the authorities.

Wen Ruqing yelled like a madman: "Song Shiwei, you will not die well. I will not let you go."

Xiao Jingheng had a gloomy face. He looked at the prince who also had an unpleasant look on his face and asked, "It was rumored before that Miss Wen lost her virginity to another man, but I don't believe it.

Now it seems that the rumor is true, otherwise how could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come with all the adults to catch an adulterer by such a coincidence?

It seems that you really don't want to marry Miss Wen, so you want me to help you marry her.

The prince is really calculating, but you didn't realize that your actions just prove that the previous rumors were true."

He sneered and asked him, "Aren't you going to the palace to see His Majesty and seek justice? Why haven't you gone yet?"

When the officials around heard Prince Ling's words, they suddenly realized what was going on.

It turned out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince brought them here to catch the adulterer in order to break off the engagement.

Everyone pointed, shook their heads and sighed.

The prince felt as embarrassed as if he was stripped naked and watched by others. He secretly clenched his hands, gritted his teeth, waved his sleeves, turned around and left.

The officials from the Ministry of Rites bowed to Xiao Jingheng and then dispersed.

After everyone left, Jamel Xiao said to Song Shiwei with a guilty look on his face: "It's my fault. I almost got you hurt again."

"Shi Wei."

Qin Yueyao and Ye Xun'an came over.

It was inconvenient for Ye Xun'an to show up in the situation just now. Qin Yueyao was afraid that he would be impulsive and make mistakes, so she followed him and waited in the distance.

Fortunately, it was a near miss.

However, Ye Xun'an's expression was obviously not very good, and there was a bit more disdain in his eyes when he looked at Xiao Jingheng: "Your Highness, are you not going to explain?"

Xiao Jingheng: “…”

There was an inexplicable sense of power in the tone, which was the unique sense of oppression from his uncle, but he couldn't resist.

He said: "It is my fault, please forgive me, my uncle."

Ye Xun'an was stunned by the word "uncle". He frowned and didn't dare to attack him for a moment.

Seeing this, Song Shiwei hurriedly said, "You can't blame him. He was also wronged."

Ye Xun'an snorted: "Why can't you blame him? That crazy woman attacked you because of him. Who else can you blame if not him?"

Song Shiwei tugged at Ye Xun'an's sleeve and said, "You have to look at the problem in a different way.

Wen Ruqing likes him so much that she's going crazy, but Xiao Jingheng only likes me, what does this mean? "

Ye Xun'an looked at her with a little confusion.

Song Shiwei raised her eyebrows, her expression full of pride: "This shows that your sister is too charming, so she arouses jealousy."

Ye Xun'an: "..."
