Chapter 256 Yun Wanying was punished
Ye Hanting paused, "Why are you hesitating? Who is it?"
Chi Yan scratched his head, "It's my cousin."
Ye Hanting put down his chopsticks and said coldly, "Lead the way."
......
Yun Wanying learned that the prince was not punished by Emperor Qingyuan as she had imagined, but instead experienced a major reversal and won the hearts of the people.
The people in the capital are now praising the prince for his kindness, and it is expected that the news will spread throughout the Great Chu soon.
Yun Wanying twisted her handkerchief, wondering if the hateful Ji Xueying was deliberately playing tricks on her. His Majesty would definitely blame her.
I hope Your Majesty will not tell Brother Han Ting about this.
As she was thinking, suddenly, the door was kicked open. Yun Wanying looked up in horror and saw Ye Hanting.
Her first reaction was flattered. Could it be that Brother Han Ting had thought it through and was going to admit what happened that night?
However, when she saw Ye Hanting's cold face, her heart instantly sank.
Does Brother Han Ting know about this?
Ye Hanting's cold voice came, "Yun Wanying, the person on the cruise ship that night of the Lantern Festival was not me. I have never been there."
"If you don't want to live, you can continue to do this. If you dare to tell me my true identity, you can try to see what the consequences will be."
After saying these words, Ye Hanting walked out without listening to any explanation from Yun Wanying.
"Brother Han Ting, why are you so cold and cruel to me!" Yun Wanying chased after him. She firmly believed that the person that night was Ye Han Ting.
Ye Hanting paused, "If you do anything to hurt the prince again, I will personally make you disappear completely. I owe the Bai family a favor, not yours, so you better take care of yourself."
Yun Wanying looked at Ye Hanting's indifferent back as he left. Her legs went limp and she collapsed to the ground, her heart broken.
Why did Brother Han Ting treat her like this?
What did she do wrong to make Brother Han Ting hate her so much?
Not long after Ye Hanting left, someone came from the palace.
Yun Wanying was brought to the palace.
Emperor Qingyuan looked at her with a serious expression.
Yun Wanying knelt down immediately.
"Your Majesty, Wanying listened to slander and was worried that the royal bloodline would be lost outside the palace, so she..."
She knelt there, looking delicate and weak, with tears in her eyes, as if she would break at any moment.
Emperor Qingyuan could see that Yun Wanying was indeed scared. He stood up from the dragon throne and walked towards Yun Wanying step by step.
Yun Wanying was terrified, she was afraid that Emperor Qingyuan would kill her in a rage.
Brother Han Ting said such harsh words today, he will definitely not help her.
She was trembling all over, and only then did she feel scared.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Qingyuan leaned over and helped her up from the ground.
Yun Wanying was stunned.
Emperor Qingyuan was not angry?
The great Emperor of Chu actually helped her up personally.
Emperor Qingyuan sighed, "You are just too kind-hearted. Don't listen to one side of the story in the future."
Yun Wanying's tears fell one by one like pearls from a broken string.
In this world, apart from his parents, no one is so tolerant of her.
What's more, the man in front of him is the emperor of the Great Chu Kingdom.
For her, her vanity reached its peak at this moment.
Emperor Qingyuan saw that she was crying so sadly and wiped away her tears with his fingers.
Yun Wanying's smooth skin made Emperor Qingyuan feel itchy. Yun Wanying was really young. Only when he was with her did he feel that he had not aged.
Yun Wanying shyly dodged and Emperor Qingyuan withdrew his hand.
"Don't be afraid. I won't let anyone know about this. This is a secret between you and me."
Yun Wanying was coaxed by the old man and suddenly had an evil idea.
Since Emperor Qingyuan likes her, she can be fearless.
From now on, even if he is the prince, she will not be afraid.
Emperor Qingyuan looked at her shy appearance and a smile appeared on his lips. The process of chasing prey is always so interesting.
He believed that Yun Wanying would take the initiative to throw herself into his arms sooner or later.
Emperor Qingyuan was not angry with Yun Wanying, and he coaxed her for a long time.
Yun Wanying left Emperor Qingyuan's study feeling refreshed.
She had just taken a few steps when she saw the old nanny beside the Queen Mother, who asked her coldly to go see the Queen Mother.
Yun Wanying did not dare to disobey and could only bite the bullet and go see the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother dropped her Buddhist beads, glanced at her, and said coldly, "Yun Wanying, you are so brave!"
Yun Wanying knelt down in front of the Queen Mother, trembling all over.
The Queen Mother stood up and reprimanded, "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because His Majesty likes you. You know what you did."
Yun Wanying knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Queen Mother, "Please calm down, Queen Mother. Wanying believed the slander and regretted it. I beg the Queen Mother to forgive me."
The Queen Mother stared at her pitiful appearance and knew that Emperor Qingyuan would not punish her.
However, she would not let Yun Wanying become arrogant before she even enters the harem!
"Yun Wanying, you are so smart. I will punish you by making you copy 100 copies of the female rules and confining you to your house for three months. If you do this again, I will not let you off easily!"
Yun Wanying kowtowed to the Empress Dowager with tears in her eyes, "Thank you very much, Empress Dowager, for your mercy."
When leaving the palace, Yun Wanying's legs felt weak.
She got into trouble this time because of jealousy and wanted to make the prince unhappy.
I didn't expect that it would involve the former dynasty and the harem.
After being punished by the Queen Mother, she suddenly remembered that her grandmother had once warned her to be careful with her words and actions and not to interfere in the affairs of the court.
She is now involved in this matter. She is lucky that Emperor Qingyuan tolerates her and the Empress Dowager does not punish her severely.
It seems that I have to be extra careful in the future.
When Yun Wanying saw the eldest prince being beaten to pieces by Pei Ye and brought into the palace, she swallowed nervously.
She also saw Ji Xueying, who was tied up, looking at her meaningfully.
Ji Xueying knew what happened between her and Brother Han Ting that night. When they met again, she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
She quickened her pace and left the palace as if a ghost was chasing her.
......
Jinluan Palace.
Emperor Qingyuan frowned slightly when he saw the eldest prince being beaten with a stick. Pei Ye had hit him so hard.
But he couldn't say anything. Since he had said those words in front of all the ministers, he could only admit it.
After all, he is the emperor, and his words are always important.
After the eldest prince met Emperor Qingyuan, he began to accuse Pei Ye of his crimes in a miserable manner.
Pei Ye didn't pay any attention to it, but he was not affected at all.
He saw Chu Li brought Ji Xueying and people from the First Prince's Mansion, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, I took action because the First Prince refused to cooperate with me. Let the people brought by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince speak."
Chu Li was called by Pei Ye as soon as she arrived. Her expression was even calmer than Pei Ye's.
"Father, after being interrogated by Lord Xue Yi, the guards in my eldest brother's mansion have confessed. My eldest brother plotted to kill Ji Xueying because there were many unknown deals between them. I am worried that my eldest brother was slandered, so I brought it to you for your decision."
Xue Yi, who changed into new clothes and came to the Golden Palace with Chu Li, felt a headache. It was obviously the prince who was interrogating him and he was just listening.
Why did he have to take the blame? He glanced at the eldest prince who was staring at him viciously.
Haha, this time I am forced to stand against the eldest prince.
Emperor Qingyuan's eyes were gloomy. His eldest son was actually in collusion with the imperial guards around him.
What do they want to do?
Does the eldest prince want to rebel?
"Asshole! You tell me yourself, or I should have him tortured severely!" Emperor Qingyuan looked at the eldest prince coldly.
"I am innocent. It's a fabricated accusation against me!" The eldest prince cried with snot and tears, not caring about his manners anymore.
Chu Li lowered his eyes, thinking secretly in his heart: The imperial family is the most ruthless. Since the eldest prince is ruthless, don't blame her for being disloyal.
Today she was going to beat the eldest prince to death and get him out of the race for the throne.
Suddenly, Eunuch Li came to report that someone was coming to see the emperor.
