"The prince once wrote a letter to my mother, clearly stating that he has a sweetheart, but as far as I know, there is no concubine in the Pingxi Palace." Fang Xinyan said boldly, "From this we can see that the prince is unable to marry for some reason. My sweetheart, but it is impossible for a man as heroic as the prince to stay without a wife for the rest of his life. Since he marries anyone, why can't he marry me?"
These words made Mr. Fang so angry that he almost vomited blood.
This was the little daughter he held in the palm of his hand and whom he doted on, and she was so shameless to say such things to a man.
Chu Yi didn't even look at her.
His voice was extremely cold: "I have resisted decrees one after another, which has aroused the emperor's suspicion. If Mr. Fang resigns, and I marry Miss Fang again, it will be a way to regain the Sacred Heart. I just don't know if Mr. Fang is willing?"
Fang Xinyan was stunned for a moment.
Do you have to pay such a high price to marry King Pingxi?
Mr. Fang immediately raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, my daughter is young and talks nonsense. Please, Your Majesty, please don't take her words to heart!"
It took seven generations of his Fang family to reach the position of a second-rank official in the court. To resign and give up everything just for a marriage is simply ridiculous!
Fang Xinyan stammered: "I, I'm not talking nonsense..."
"Miss Fang has the time to seek life and death here, so why not persuade your father to resign." Chu Yi sneered, "I am waiting for good news from you."
He took a step and walked out.
Master Fang glared at his daughter fiercely and hurriedly followed her.
When he reached the gate, Chu Yi stopped and said, "Master Fang must resign quickly. If it is later, the Queen Mother will issue an order to make Miss Fang the Prince and Princess of Zhuang."
Lord Fang was shocked.
Prince Zhuang is the legitimate son of the former Crown Prince and the only blood grandson of the Queen Mother. Although he is also a prince, he has no actual official position.
The most important point is that Prince Zhuang is a sick man!
After sending Chu Yi away, he turned around and walked to Fang Xinyan's yard.
"Dad, please resign temporarily. After I become Princess Pingxi, I will find a way to reinstate my father..."
"Snapped!"
Master Fang slapped his daughter on the face.
This daughter was an old woman whom he acquired when he was in her forties. She loved her very much. This was the first time in his life that he had done anything to her.
Fang Xinyan covered her face in disbelief: "Dad, you dare to hit me. I just asked you to resign temporarily, so you just hit me. You let me down so much..."
Fang Daren's forehead was about to burst with anger: "Do you know that the Queen Mother intends to grant a marriage to you and Prince Zhuang!"
"Prince Zhuang..." Fang Xinyan's eyes widened, "That sick man looks like a ghost. I don't want to marry him, I don't want it!"
Mrs. Fang said anxiously: "Master, what should we do? Prince Pingxi is not willing to marry, and Prince Zhuang is not a good man. What should we do?"
Master Fang has a headache.
Before today's incident, his daughter could still find a good home.
But the matter of his daughter seeking death was so big that no nobleman in the capital would dare to marry a wife who had another man in mind.
But as a father, he must stand up for his daughter and try his best to find a good marriage.
When the people of the Fang family were discussing.
Chu Yi has arrived at the Dali Temple dungeon.
Qin Mingheng was imprisoned for many days and only had to eat a bowl of porridge every day to survive.
He lost weight rapidly and could no longer be tied up with chains. He was lying on the straw mat on the ground, and the rise and fall of his chest proved that he was still alive.
The program picked up a basin of water and poured it on his face.
Qin Mingheng choked and coughed, and slowly opened his eyes. When he saw Chu Yi, he showed a sinister smile: "King Pingxi must have remembered me."
"Exile and escape is a capital crime. You will be lucky if I keep you for a few days." Chu Yi ordered in a cold voice, "Come here, take Qin Mingheng to the Meridian Gate!"
Qin Mingheng's expression changed.
When Yunchu learned about what happened that night from him, he guessed that King Pingxi would also be vaguely suspicious and would definitely come to interrogate him.
Then he could use this matter to take advantage of King Ping Xi and find a way out.
But King Pingxi didn't follow common sense and actually wanted to kill him.
He was escorted to his feet by two guards.
"Wait!" Qin Mingheng gritted his teeth, "I have a deal to discuss with the prince. I wonder if the prince is interested."
"I don't negotiate deals with dead people." Chu Yi twirled his fingers, "I have some friendship with your father, so I will let your body be buried in the same place."
After he finished speaking, he walked out.
Qin Mingheng truly felt the approach of death.
"Don't you want to know who the woman was that night?"
"Don't you want to know who the biological mother of the young prince and the princess is?"
"I can tell the prince everything, but the prerequisite is that the prince must let me live."
Chu Yi smiled: "Marquis Xuanwu told me more than once that that woman was a maid in your house and died a long time ago. Why are you negotiating a deal with me with a dead person?"
"She is not dead, she is alive and well!" Qin Mingheng said loudly, "The young prince and the young princess want their biological mother so much, doesn't the prince want to give birth to two children?"
Chu Yi tightened his fingers.
Was the woman that night Yunchu?
It must be her.
Otherwise, Yun Chu would not have said those words.
"Ha!" The arc of Chu Yi's side face became cold and hard, "I have already understood what happened that night. Do you think you can lie to me again with your mouth?"
Qin Mingheng was stunned.
Has Yunchu already spoken to Chu Yi?
She is such a deep-minded woman who can only seek revenge in secret, so why would she talk about this matter openly?
His expression was fully visible to Chu Yi.
He has been interrogating prisoners all year round, how could he not understand such expressions.
Endless emotions suddenly surged in his heart...
It turns out that five years ago, he and Yun Chu had already...
They missed five whole years, thousands of days and nights.
He lived with the guilt for five years.
She suffered in the Xie family for five years.
Obviously it doesn't have to be like this...
He is really the biggest idiot in the world!
He couldn't wait to see her!
"She lied to you, it's not her at all!" Qin Mingheng said with hatred, "I don't know why Yun Chu lied to you, but I want to tell you that the woman who really spent the night with you is someone else, and she was hidden by me. A place you’ll never find.”
Chu Yi's handsome face was covered with a layer of gloom.
In other words, besides Qin Mingheng, there was someone else who knew what happened that night.
He is nothing as a man.
We must not allow Yunchu to be harassed by rumors after going through so many hardships.
He suppressed his emotions and said in a cold voice: "I will allow you to live a few more days and tell the truth, where is that woman?"
Qin Mingheng felt relieved.
Unexpectedly, Chu Yi actually believed what he said.
"Then please keep your word and let me live a little longer." Qin Mingheng said word by word, "The woman is in a village thirty miles outside the city..."
That was a big gift he prepared for Chu Yi five years ago.
Thinking that he couldn't bear it anymore, he handed it over to Chu Yi. Unexpectedly, it came in handy today.
The woman is from the Qin family and is loyal to the Qin family. If she can enter Prince Pingxi's palace, she will have a chance to rescue him from the dungeon.
Chu Yi turned around and walked out of the dungeon, and ordered the program in a cold voice: "Go to the city thirty miles away in person...stop your mouth, and take it back to Beijing immediately!"
The program took the order and left.
Chu Yi ignored his physical discomfort, fetched the horse and galloped towards Yun's house.
