Chapter 108 I'm a Little Bit Reluctant to Let Her Die

The emperor originally thought that the plan of granting marriage would be simple, and it would not be difficult to force Ye Chutang to obey by poisoning him.

As a result, he lost four shadow guards but failed to accomplish anything.

Instead, it was the idiot Ye Jingchuan who was poisoned!

He agreed to meet Ye Chutang, not only because he wanted to teach her a lesson, but also because he wanted to poison her.

You dare to threaten the emperor by beating the drum, you are rebelling!

"Eunuch De, go prepare some tea and snacks and give them to Miss Ye later."

Eunuch De understood the emperor's hint.

"I obey your command."

Ye Jingchuan had long guessed that the emperor would take action against Ye Chutang, and when he heard this, a look of joy appeared on his face.

There is hope for becoming a marquis!

He pretended to explain for Ye Chutang.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. There are some conflicts between my daughter and the princess. When we were attacked in Prince An's mansion yesterday, I thought it was Prince An who did it on purpose. I am sorry to have embarrassed everyone."

Prince An knew that if the matter got out of hand, his situation would become even more unfavorable.

He echoed, "It was Prince An's Mansion's poor hospitality that caused Miss Ye to misunderstand. Your Majesty, please don't blame her."

The emperor would naturally not do anything to a chess piece, after all, she was still of great use.

But there are many lessons to be learned.

Otherwise, if she starts the process, everyone will come to file complaints and everyone will go to beat the drum to file complaints.

At this time, the eunuch's shrill voice was heard outside the Golden Palace.

"The daughter of the Ye family is here to see you!"

The emperor looked at Eunuch De and said, "The affairs of state have not yet been discussed. Let Miss Ye wait outside the palace first."

Eunuch De took the order and walked out of the Golden Palace.

"Miss Ye, the emperor has not yet finished dealing with government affairs, please wait."

It was already 9:00 p.m., the sun was high in the sky, and the temperature was scorching.

Ye Chutang walked over from the palace gate, already sweating.

She knew that the emperor was deliberately trying to intimidate her by exposing her to the sun.

"My daughter is always ready to be summoned by the Emperor."

After saying this, she walked to the eaves of the Golden Throne Hall and sat down.

Ye Chutang raised her eyebrows at Eunuch Shangde's incredulous look.

"The Emperor didn't tell me to stand in the sun as punishment, did he?"

She is a victim, and even if the dog emperor has this idea, he will not say it openly.

Eunuch De looked at Ye Chutang, who had no image at all, and immediately thought of her bad habits of not liking to take a bath or change clothes and liking to pick her toes, and he looked away with disgust.

"Your Majesty is kind and benevolent. Miss Ye is worrying too much."

After saying that, he entered the Golden Palace and quietly told the emperor that Ye Chutang was hiding from the cool under the eaves.

The emperor didn't expect Ye Chutang to be so cunning, and said something subconsciously.

"As cunning as her mother!"

Back then, Tang Wanning was the most beautiful woman in the capital, and the Tang family was the richest family in Jiangnan, so countless men were attracted to her.

Not only did Prince An want to take her as a concubine, but the emperor also wanted to make her a consort.

Who doesn’t like a beautiful and valuable vase?

As a result, she only had Ye Jingchuan in her heart. Not only did she reject all explicit and implicit suggestions, she also used the people's support she gained by helping the people to prevent anyone from taking advantage of her.

The emperor felt that Ye Chutang was following the same path as her mother.

It’s just that she is more capable than Tang Wanning.

In less than a month, even he, the emperor, could not touch her at will!

Since there was no way to give her a warning, there was no need to waste time.

The emperor said to Eunuch De, "Summon her to the throne."

Eunuch De flicked his snow-white whisk and said, "Xuan Ye Chutang is here to see you!"

After hearing this, Ye Chutang stood up, straightened his clothes, and strode into the Golden Palace.

She was the first official woman to enter the Golden Palace since the emperor came to power.

"Your Majesty, long live the Emperor!"

She did not kneel down, but bowed deeply and performed the etiquette of a student.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, looking down upon Ye Chutang from above.

"Stand up and raise your head."

Ye Chutang stood up and looked up at the emperor.

The emperor was stunned by her beautiful face, and his eyes became darker.

He was a little reluctant to see her die, a beautiful woman who was both literary and martial and knew medicine.

"I heard from Minister Ye that you want to file a complaint with the emperor?"

"Your Majesty, yes!"

Ye Chutang saw the lust in the emperor's eyes and felt sick.

She told him everything that happened after she entered Prince An's mansion yesterday, as well as the assassination attempt.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I am petty and I suspect Prince An wants to kill me. It's that I have been in trouble since I entered Prince An's mansion, especially the huge iron cage in the guest house and more than a dozen top assassins. How does Prince An want to explain it?"

After saying this, she added another sentence without waiting for Prince An to argue.

"I can draw the appearance of those killers. With their portraits, it will not be difficult to find their identities."

This was said to the emperor.

Although the four shadow guards rarely appear in public, it is certain that no one has ever seen them.

As soon as the portrait came out, the emperor was linked to the assassination.

He was a man who cared a lot about his reputation and would never let something like this happen.

Therefore, Prince An will definitely take the blame for the dog emperor!

The emperor's heart skipped a beat, but he did not respond to Ye Chutang. Instead, he remembered what Prince An said when he entered the palace yesterday.

"Ye Chutang, you said that Prince An wanted to kill you. Then I want to ask you, how did you escape from so many masters?"

Ye Chutang knew that the emperor suspected that the "ghost thief" was related to her.

She met the emperor's oppressive gaze frankly.

"I don't know. At that time, I, Prince Chen, and Master Qin were being attacked and their lives were hanging by a thread. Suddenly, the ground shook like a dragon turning over. Then I fainted and when I woke up, I was already in my boudoir."

"Later, I learned from the Dali Temple officials that the 'ghost thieves' had emptied the entire Prince An's mansion and set it on fire."

After hearing this, the emperor’s imperial pressure was directed towards Ye Chutang.

"In other words, you were saved by the 'Ghost Thief'. Why did he save you? Are you two in the same group?"

Ye Chutang ignored the pressure and acted neither humble nor arrogant.

"I don't know the 'Ghost Thief', and I don't know why he saved me. I guess the 'Ghost Thief' probably thought that Prince An and Zhang Tianshi were of the same kind, so he saved the person he wanted to kill and emptied Prince An's mansion."

Ye Jingchuan didn't want the Shangshu Mansion to be associated with the "ghost thief" and to arouse the emperor's dislike.

He said quickly: "Your Majesty, please understand. The first place the 'ghost thief' stole was my daughter's Ningchuyuan. My daughter could not be in cahoots with him. She was rescued by the 'ghost thief' purely by accident."

Suddenly, someone said something.

"Maybe it's the thief crying thief, this way, no one will be suspicious."

Ye Chutang immediately locked onto the official who was speaking.

"So, what this gentleman means is that the 'ghost thief' is in cahoots with Eunuch De, the Emperor, and Prince An?"

The officials were so frightened that they immediately stepped out of line and knelt down before the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I have absolutely no such intention!"

Ye Chutang smiled and said, "So you are targeting me?"

"Miss Ye, you are worrying too much. I am just discussing the matter and making a guess."

"Oh, then I also have a guess. The 'ghost thief' is your man, because he did not steal from your mansion."

The official immediately retorted, "There are plenty of officials who haven't had their accounts stolen from!"

Ye Chutang curled his lips mockingly.

"I will return the same words to you, sir. Please do not open your mouth and slander others at random."

There is another place to purchase goods tonight, so cool!

The official was so frustrated that he couldn't even utter a word in rebuttal.

"Miss Ye is right. I was too arbitrary."

The emperor looked at Ye Chutang, who was eloquent and not at all shy, and believed that she had nothing to do with the "ghost thief".

The "ghost thief" only appeared after Qi Yanzhou returned to Beijing, so he is most likely his man!

After thinking it through, he became even more determined to destroy the Qi family.

The emperor withdrew his pressure and looked at Prince An.

"Prince An, Miss Ye has been having trouble since she entered Prince An's mansion. How do you want to explain?"
