Chapter 394 Being Beaten
There were five finger marks on Princess Yu's cheek, and she was stunned.
Her husband actually beat her!
Over the years, Prince Yu had never let her suffer any injustice, but today he actually beat her for Jun Ling!
"Father, it was clearly my brother who was the one who turned his elbow outward and always stood on Jun Yaohua's side. It was Jun Yaohua who should have been insulted today!"
With a slap, Jun Anrou was also slapped on the face by Prince Yu.
"Lock the princess in the house and don't let her come out!" Prince Yu was furious. The confused mother and daughter said these in front of Jun Ling!
Jun Anrou ran out crying. Princess Yu looked at Prince Yu with disappointment and tears in her eyes, then went after Jun Anrou.
Prince Yu's hands were shaking. He had never touched them, mother and daughter.
But today, Princess Yu was so eager to protect her son and daughter that she almost revealed that she was not Jun Ling's biological mother.
He turned around and looked at Jun Ling with tears in his eyes.
"You've seen it too. Father has been worrying about this family for these years. Ever since your mother was murdered by your uncle... since that night, she has become weird and complaining about everything. Now that you're back, father has found someone to rely on. Don't blame your uncle. Father has found out that he was drunk that day and did something stupid."
Ye Hanting looked at his father in tears. If it were in the past, he might have hugged his father and cried, and hated Jun Yunting even more.
He doesn't do that now.
He patted Prince Yu's shoulder and said, "Father, Mother is in a bad mood. You should go and keep her company. I came here to tell you that I am going to move out."
"Where are you going? This is your home!" Prince Yu was a little anxious.
It would be difficult to kill Jun Ling while he was living in the palace, and it would be even more difficult to kill him if he lived outside.
"Father, you've seen it too. The Crown Prince can't tolerate me. He has the nerve to have someone put poison in my room. Do you think I'm still suitable to live in Prince Yu's Mansion? I've made up my mind. Please take care of yourself."
After Ye Hanting finished speaking, he turned around with unusually firm steps.
The truth about what happened back then is about to come to light.
......
Ye Hanting came to Zuixianlou, the largest restaurant in the imperial city, and stayed there.
Chi Yan followed him.
This is the master's property in Daxia Kingdom. Living here is much safer than Prince Yu's Palace.
Standing on top of a tall building, Ye Hanting looked in the direction of Da Chu.
Today is Chu Li’s birthday. I wonder if she is happy today?
He won't let her wait too long, he will be back to her soon.
......
Great Chu Kingdom.
It was already very late when Chu Li finished reviewing memorials in the imperial study.
She saw Pei Ye who had been guarding her outside.
Pei Ye has been much more obedient recently. Without Ye Hanting around, he doesn't seem to be so crazy anymore.
However, he still had a lot of emotions towards Mu Feng.
"General Mu, hasn't your poison been cured by His Majesty? Why don't you return home?"
Chu Li pushed open the door and saw Mu Feng coming to see her.
"Uncle, didn't I ask you to stay in bed and rest for a few more days?"
Mu Feng smiled faintly, "Much better. The detoxification pills that His Majesty gave me seem to be very effective."
Chu Li smiled happily. This meant that she had developed an antidote to the black poison.
Pei Ye clasped his hands together and said, "Congratulations, General Mu, your injury has healed. I will send someone to send you home."
Mu Feng suddenly covered his chest and coughed a few times, "Your Majesty should observe for a few more days, in case there is a relapse later."
Chu Li nodded, "Yes, that's just right. I'll also take a look at the efficacy of the detoxification pills to see if they are completely effective for the condition."
Pei Ye's narrow eyes stared at Mu Feng's ears, which had turned red because of lying.
General Mu, who is upright, selfless and open-minded, actually became shameless in order to win Chu Li's heart.
Shameless!
He took a bouquet of flowers from a chair beside him and handed it to Chu Li.
"Today is your birthday, this is for you."
Chu Li saw a colorful bracelet in the middle of the purple bouquet.
"Didn't I say it's just a birthday?"
The money the emperor spent on his birthday was enough to feed the people of Chu for a month.
She has asked the Ministry of Revenue to use the money to build a girls' school.
Pei Ye felt a little disappointed because Chu Li did not accept his flowers and gifts.
"I made this bracelet myself. Since I was ten years old, I have taken Erhan to a city you have never been to every year to find their most famous jade. You like to watch the sea, so I also went out to sea to look for colorful stones..."
Chu Li sighed, "Original owner, should I accept it?"
The colorful stone was in the turbulent deep sea, and Pei Ye was also risking his life.
Chu Li took the bouquet and placed it inside the house.
Pei Ye's lips curled up instantly, and Chu Li said awkwardly: "I accepted it because of her."
Pei Ye's eyes dimmed instantly.
When Mu Feng saw Pei Ye expressing his love to Chu Li in front of him, he took the opportunity to hand Chu Li the gift he had prepared.
"I had nothing to do, so I made a dagger that can cut iron like mud and gave it to Your Majesty for self-defense."
After Chu Li took the dagger, her eyes lit up. This was exactly what she needed: a dagger that was small, exquisite, and yet highly lethal.
"Thank you, uncle."
She treated them equally and accepted both.
Pei Ye glanced at Mu Feng. Ye Hanting was gone, but Mu Feng was still there.
A dagger is given as a birthday gift. One dares to give it and the other dares to receive it.
Chu Li looked at the two of them and said, "I am leaving the palace for a walk. You don't have to follow me."
She is going home to be with her children.
After she left, Pei Ye frowned, wondering why Chu Li always liked to live outside the palace.
He saw the Queen Mother's men following Chu Li and quietly blocked their way.
"I will just follow your majesty."
He no longer wanted to follow the Queen Mother and was trying to find a way to escape from her control.
After Chu Li returned home, he played hide-and-seek with Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Ming.
Suddenly, she saw fireworks being set off from the Bronze Sparrow Tower, the highest point in the capital.
Bingxia came in from outside, eyes full of excitement, "Master, Tongque Tower is setting off fireworks again on your birthday!"
Chu Li looked at the fireworks that kept exploding and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Every year on her birthday, fireworks are set off in the Tongque Tower.
How could it be such a coincidence?
She put on a cloak and came to the Bronze Sparrow Tower alone.
Fireworks continued to explode, illuminating Lan Yi's face.
Chu Li's heart trembled violently.
It turns out it was Ye Hanting all along...
If he liked him so much, why would he leave like that?
Lan Yi spotted Chu Li, "Your Majesty!"
Chu Li approached him and pressed him, "Tell me the truth, where did Ye Hanting go?"
Lan Yi said awkwardly: "Your Majesty, the master does not allow me to speak."
"Speak!" Chu Li's voice gradually turned cold. "Otherwise, I will tie you up and hang you on the city wall tomorrow, and wait for him to come back and give me an explanation!"
Lan Yi was forced to confess, "The master was assassinated by an assassin from the Great Xia Kingdom. In order not to implicate you and the young master, he went to the Great Xia Kingdom to find the enemy and resolve the matter."
Chu Li's heart tightened and his eyes became moist.
Ye Hanting is a madman!
He doesn't want his life!
There is a very powerful poison master in the Great Xia Kingdom. The poison that Ye Hanting was poisoned with might have been given by Gulan.
