Chapter 192 Adultery Exposed
When Ye Hanting saw Chu Li leaving with an expressionless face, he quickly stepped forward and grabbed Chu Li's wrist.
"You should know who is behind Concubine Rong."
Chu Li sneered, "I don't care who he is!"
After dealing with Concubine Rong, she took her children and retired to the mountains. She was fed up with the disgusting court disputes.
Ye Hanting had never been a mother, so naturally she couldn't understand her feelings at the moment.
Concubine Rong should be cut into pieces!
Zhang Zhilong, who was standing beside the two men, also clenched his fists. He was as angry as the prince when he saw the blood on the baby's body.
There was a circle of blood at the position of the heart, and he wished he could skin Concubine Rong to pieces!
Chu Li seemed to hear the heart-wrenching cry of a baby as someone stabbed a dagger into the heart.
Ye Hanting had never seen Chu Li so angry about anything.
He tightened his grip on Chu Li's wrist and felt her body trembling.
"Okay, I'll help you, but you need to calm yourself down first."
Chu Li looked back at Ye Hanting, "Sir, please help protect the witness."
"Okay." Ye Hanting agreed to Chu Li.
"Thank you sir."
Chu Li and Ye Hanting have experienced a lot together. She now really respects Ye Hanting as a teacher and regards him as a friend.
Although some people said that when Ye Hanting was investigating corrupt officials, he put all the money into his own treasury.
Even if Ye Hanting is a traitor, in Chu Li's heart he is a thousand times better than those people!
No, those people are not worthy to be compared with Ye Hanting.
She was determined to take responsibility for her own actions and not to implicate Ye Hanting.
Ye Hanting looked at Chu Li's resolute back and told Lan Yi, "Protect her and stop her from doing stupid things if necessary."
The Chu royal family is too complicated, and he hasn't figured out who are human and who are ghosts.
Chu Li has a conscience and a bottom line in her heart. If she insists on confronting the opponent head-on, she might suffer a great loss.
He looked at Zhang Zhilong and said, "Master Zhang, keep an eye on the traffickers and these children. I have left a secret guard behind. Take this. No matter who comes to pick up the people, refuse them."
Zhang Zhilong took the Xuanyuan Order with both hands with excitement. Seeing the Xuanyuan Order was like seeing His Majesty. With the token given by the Grand Tutor, what did he have to fear!
He bowed and said, "Yes, I will protect the witness until my death!"
"Okay." Ye Hanting left behind ten secret guards. He had something to do, so he left.
Chu Li, who had retired from the underworld, went to the black market to buy back the poison he had sold.
Fortunately, the number was small and basically all of them were recovered.
Although the middleman said that even if he didn't sell it, someone else would, but she would not make any money from it.
I’m afraid the buyer isn’t doing it for self-defense but to harm others.
Chu Li returned to the East Palace.
She knew that she had been very impulsive in Jingzhao Prefecture just now, but now she had calmed down.
It was actually not easy for her to pave a way out for herself and deal with Concubine Rong without any harm.
Behind Concubine Rong is Rong Xiong and his military power.
The emperor needs Rong Xiong to protect the country for him, which is why he has always been doting on Concubine Rong.
The Murong tribe has been invading frequently recently, and the border is in danger.
Maybe my father has other plans for Rong Xiong.
However, my father also has his weaknesses.
Chu Li thought of this and immediately went to Concubine Rong’s palace in secret.
In the dark, she heard Concubine Rong talking to someone in the room.
"What should we do? Ye Hanting and Chu Li are involved. The people from the Flying Eagle Gang have been arrested and the children have been taken away by them. This is the foolproof guarantee you gave me!"
"Your Majesty, calm down. The people from the Flying Eagle Gang have not had any direct contact with you. Don't be afraid."
"Besides, I have already told the Marquis that those witnesses will not survive until dawn!"
Chu Li secretly thought that with Ye Hanting's arrangements, the witnesses from Jingzhao Prefecture should be safe.
After she quietly finished her work, she left.
Concubine Rong suddenly felt hot all over, and Zhu Qunying's eyes became more and more passionate as he looked at her.
The two of them had not yet realized that Chu Li had given them a small amount of aphrodisiac.
The two of them were already having an affair, and in an instant they rolled into bed in uncontrollable passion.
Not long after, Emperor Qingyuan received a secret letter.
He tore the secret letter into pieces and went to Concubine Rong's palace with his personal guards and Eunuch Li.
When Nanny Liu saw Emperor Qingyuan, she was horrified.
Of course she knew about the affair between Concubine Rong and Zhu Qunying. She wanted to warn them, but was pinned to the ground by Emperor Qingyuan's guards.
Emperor Qingyuan was standing outside the door. When he heard the unbearable noise inside the house, his expression changed.
Concubine Rong and Zhu Qunying, who were doing something naked, suddenly heard a bang.
The two of them woke up instantly and looked outside the door at the same time.
Emperor Qingyuan stared at the two of them with a gloomy face.
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Rong was so frightened that she hurried to put on her clothes.
Zhu Qunying was not panicked at all. He looked at Emperor Qingyuan with his naked body, his eyes full of provocation and a sense of calm madness.
Concubine Rong knelt down in front of Emperor Qingyuan, "Your Majesty, it was that dog slave who drugged me. I am innocent!"
Zhu Qunying burst into laughter, "Your Majesty, we have slept together more than a hundred times in total. Your Majesty enjoyed it every time and even said that I am much better than Your Majesty!"
Concubine Rong turned pale and looked at Zhu Qunying, "Madman, he is a madman, Your Majesty, you don't have to listen to his nonsense!"
Emperor Qingyuan slapped Concubine Rong in the face. Concubine Rong covered her face and continued to shout that she was innocent.
Zhu Qunying put on her clothes slowly and methodically.
His eyes were red as he said, "Your Majesty, don't you remember me? It's you who made me a complete joke and made me unable to hold my head up in front of my people!"
He raised his voice and sneered, "You are the one who destroyed my family. You slept with my wife, and I slept with your woman. Isn't this fair?"
He was originally a scholar, and his newlywed wife was as beautiful as a flower. Unexpectedly, one day Emperor Qingyuan came on a secret visit, and even though he knew that his wife was married, he still flirted with her and had an affair with her.
Later, Emperor Qingyuan passed away and his wife became pregnant.
He was barren, and it was obvious whose child his wife was carrying.
Later, his wife, who was greedy for fame and fortune, wanted to marry into the royal family and go to Emperor Qingyuan, but he was so angry that he strangled the bastard to death.
His wife picked up a pair of scissors to avenge her child, and during the fight between the two, the scissors pierced his wife's neck.
He was laughed at by his tribe members. A man was cuckolded and had to raise someone else's child. Is there anything more humiliating than this?
He was devastated and kicked out of his family by his clan, wandering the streets.
Fortunately, he was taken in by his master, and after many hardships, he came to the palace and became a fake eunuch.
He endured hardships just for revenge.
Emperor Qingyuan was beginning to have murderous intent, and pointed at Zhu Qunying and said, "Take him away and castrate him, then execute him by slow slicing!"
As Concubine Rong watched Zhu Qunying being dragged away, her crying gradually subsided.
It turns out that there is really no impenetrable wall in the world. It turns out that Zhu Qunying approached her from the beginning just to take revenge on His Majesty.
Concubine Rong was shocked and frightened, but she felt that His Majesty would not touch her for the sake of her brother.
"Your Majesty, please do not believe his nonsense. I was really drugged by him and I know nothing. If Your Majesty dislikes me, I am willing to become a nun and recite scriptures and pray for Your Majesty every day."
She said it with all her heart, but it was just her way of backing down.
Concubine Rong's mind was clattering as she thought: His Majesty will be moved by her true repentance and may not punish her.
