Chapter 162: Begging for Mercy (Update 1)

Princess Qinyang also knew that she went up the mountain specifically to pray for her father, mother and brother. For some reason, looking at Ye Chutang's calm profile, Princess Qinyang felt inexplicably sad.

"Sincerity is the key to success. If your parents and brother knew about this, they would definitely hope that you are safe. What's more, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. You saved my brother this time, and the Bodhisattva will definitely be grateful."

Ye Chutang's eyes moved slightly, he lowered the curtain, turned around and smiled at Princess Qinyang.

"Thank you, my lord."

Others only think that Princess Qinyang is spoiled, willful, arrogant and domineering, but after getting to know her for some time, Ye Chutang feels that she is straightforward and open-minded. No wonder the eldest princess, who is used to the intrigues and ups and downs of life, always has a special preference for Princess Qinyang.

Princess Qinyang raised her eyebrows: "Why thank me? I'm telling the truth."

Her eyes were far away, as if lost in memories.

"In fact, my mother passed away when I was very young. I don't have much impression of her, but my father said that when my mother passed away, she told him to make sure I live a happy and comfortable life. So I couldn't stand being wronged since I was a child."

Ye Chutang was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Princess Qinyang would take the initiative to talk to her about these things.

Princess Qinyang warned again: "In the future, if anyone targets you, don't be polite!"

Ye Chutang laughed.

"What the princess said makes sense. I remember it."

…

The carriage drove all the way into the city and finally stopped outside the gate of the Princess's Mansion.

Princess Qinyang stopped Ye Chutang and said, "I'll go down and bring Xiaowu back. You're still injured. What if you accidentally tear it again? Just wait here."

Ye Chutang didn't argue with her. After thanking her, he waited in the carriage.

After a while, Princess Qinyang really came out with Xiaowu.

Zhu Xin followed beside and bowed beside the carriage.

"The princess was concerned about Second Miss Ye's injury and wanted to see her, but she was afraid that the trip would delay Second Miss Ye's recovery, so she said she would wait until you were better before meeting her."

Ye Chutang certainly didn't mind this, and smiled slightly, "I should be the one to thank you. Xiaowu is here, and I'm sorry to have caused trouble for the princess."

Zhu Xin smiled: "Second Miss Ye, what you said is too polite. The eldest princess likes the fifth lady, and she is so happy!"

Xiaowu Yuxue is cute, obedient and sensible, and is loved by almost everyone. With such a little baby around, the entire Princess's Mansion becomes a lot more lively.

Not only the eldest princess, but even they were reluctant to let her go.

Princess Qinyang carried Xiaowu into the car. Xiaowu turned around and waved obediently.

Zhu Xin took a step back and knelt down again.

As soon as the curtain was lowered, Xiao Wu turned around and saw Ye Chutang, his eyes instantly turned red.

Ye Chutang waved at her: "What's wrong?"

Xiaowu leaned over and couldn't help but shed crystal clear tears.

She has been with her elder sister since she was a child, how could she not see that her elder sister was injured?

Ye Chutang knew that he couldn't hide it from her, so he sighed softly and touched her little face.

"Sister, it's okay. It's just a minor wound. It will heal in a few days."

Xiaowu's eyes were full of disbelief.

If it was not serious, according to my sister's usual style, she would go to the Princess's Mansion in person, thank her solemnly and then take her away, instead of asking Princess Qinyang to help.

Ye Chutang moved closer and whispered something in her ear.

Xiaowu was stunned, with tears hanging on his eyelashes, looking pitiful and cute.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Wu finally nodded, hugged Ye Chutang's arm, and stopped crying.

Princess Qinyang saw that the little girl's eyes and nose were red from crying, and her heart softened. She comforted her, "Don't worry, Xiaowu, your sister will pay you back many times over for the suffering she has endured this time!"

…

Prince Qi's Palace.

Xiao Chengxuan didn't sleep all night.

The people he sent never brought back any news, which made him gradually uneasy.

This uneasiness finally reached its peak in the morning when I heard that Chen Yanchuan had gone down the mountain.

"What? You said he's back!?"

Xiao Chengxuan stood up suddenly, unable to believe it.

The subordinate lowered his head, trembling with fear: "Yes, yes... I heard that he came back with Princess Qinyang. He first went to the Princess's Mansion and then to the Ye Mansion. It seems, it seems that he sent Ye Chutang and her youngest sister back..."

In other words, these people are all safe and sound! ?

Xiao Chengxuan's mind went blank for a moment.

"So, where are the people?"

What about the people who were sent later?

The subordinates lowered their heads even lower.

"No, no news..."

No news is the worst news!

Xiao Chengxuan slowly slumped in his chair, finally realizing that things seemed to be out of control.

It would be fine if the person died, but if he didn't...

Seeing that Xiao Chengxuan did not respond for a long time, the subordinate could not help but ask: "Your Highness, what should we do next?"

Xiao Chengxuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

What to do, how would he know what to do!

"What a great guy Chen Yanchuan is. He actually set up such a big trap for me! Good, good!"

Xiao Chengxuan quickly figured out the whole story and felt so angry that his teeth were itching.

At the beginning, Lian Zhou said that he had captured a assassin, and that the man was not dead, but had fallen into a coma... This was clearly a show for him!

Thinking of this, Xiao Chengxuan suddenly became alert - could it be that Shen Yanchuan had already guessed that it was him?

No, even if he guessed it, without evidence, Shen Yanchuan would never act rashly.

Therefore, the most important thing now is to find out how many people Shen Yanchuan has held in his hands, and whether they are alive or dead!

Xiao Chengxuan pondered for a long time, and finally said: "Let the people below suspend all actions and wait and see what happens!"

The subordinate hesitated: "Your Highness, but in this way——"

"Just do as the king says!"

Xiao Chengxuan's tone was fierce.

The man's heart trembled, and he quickly responded respectfully: "Yes!"

Xiao Chengxuan leaned back in his chair, still unable to calm down his restlessness and anxiety.

Just then, someone outside reported.

"Your Highness, Lord Ye Hengye requests to see you!"

Xiao Chengxuan frowned.

What is Ye Heng doing at this time! ?

"Your Highness, if you don't want to see him, just let him go back—"

"Just let him in!"

Xiao Chengxuan said this and winked at the man in front of him.

The latter immediately stood up, retreated back to the inner room, and disappeared.

…

Ye Heng actually didn't want to make this trip, but he was worried that Han Yao would go home and go crazy again. After thinking it over, he decided to come.

Han Tong was imprisoned in Tianlao, and there were only a few people who could save him at this time, and King Qi Xiao Chengxuan was one of them.

Ye Heng entered the study and immediately knelt down to pay his respects.

"I am sorry to bother Your Highness today. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

Xiao Chengxuan's expression has returned to normal.

"Master Ye, please stand up. If you have anything to say, just tell me directly."

Only then did Ye Heng look up and glance at Xiao Chengxuan.

He thought for a moment and then spoke carefully: "Your Highness, I wonder what you think about Han Yao's matter?"

There was a hint of impatience in Xiao Chengxuan's eyes.

"Are you here today for him?"
