Chapter 25 It's Not Worth It for Him
The atmosphere in the carriage was the most terrifying Su Xing had ever experienced. It was terrifying, but also made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Because of his own experience, he knows how much impact the abnormality of the original family can have on a person. It is a pain that will accompany you throughout your life and can never be healed.
What's more, Ye Linghan is in this situation...
Su Xing knew that he had no right to sympathize with Ye Linghan, but having had similar experiences, he just couldn't control himself.
He suppressed the fear in his heart and looked at Ye Linghan quietly.
"Regent..." Su Xing finally mustered up the courage to speak, but when Ye Linghan turned to look at him, he didn't know what to say.
He was frightened to death and moved his lips several times, trying to say something quickly, but no sound came out.
"What's the matter?" Ye Linghan suddenly spoke, his tone was not angry or impatient, just cold.
This made Su Xing relax a little, and his brain could function normally again. After thinking for a moment, he changed his mind and talked about the case: "Do you think it's true that Marquis Mu Yuan said that if something happens to him, the Ye Kingdom will bury him with him?"
How can such a big country perish so easily?
Ye Linghan did not respond, but slowly withdrew his gaze.
Su Xing thought Ye Linghan was not going to respond to him, but after a while he heard Ye Linghan's voice: "I spared his life not because I was afraid of his threats, but because I wanted to find his accomplices."
"Accomplice?" Su Xing couldn't help but exclaimed.
There is an accomplice? How did Ye Linghan know?
"Marquis Mu Yuan has no real power, and he can't do this alone." Ye Linghan said in a low voice: "Unless someone helps, and it must be someone in the court."
Su Xing understood it instantly. For example, the understanding of several Shangshu Lords must be known by people who are close to them on a daily basis.
Who could it be? So bold...
"Regent..." Su Xing asked while carefully considering, "Why do you think Marquis Mu Yuan did this?"
Do you want to overthrow the current emperor and become the emperor yourself?
But how could it be so easy to change dynasties?
Ye Linghan turned to look at Su Xing again after hearing this. After a moment, he asked, "What do you think?"
Su Xing was stunned, blinked his eyes, and suddenly asked inexplicably: "Prince Regent, does he have any grudge against you?"
Ye Linghan is the actual ruler of the Ye Kingdom. Targeting the imperial court is targeting Ye Linghan.
He couldn't help but think of Mu Yuanhou's expression when he mocked Ye Linghan, as if he had been enduring for a long time and finally had the chance to take revenge.
Ye Linghan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you think he did these things to avenge me?"
When asked this, Su Xing suddenly became a little nervous. He didn't know if Ye Linghan was angry.
"No..." Su Xing stammered, "I'm just making a wild guess..."
Seeing Su Xing's reaction, Ye Linghan's mouth seemed to move, and then his unfathomable eyes narrowed and sneered: "Speaking of revenge...he is not the only one who wants me dead?"
The corner of Su Xing's mouth twitched fiercely. Why did Ye Linghan sound so proud?
If so many people want you dead, shouldn't you reflect on yourself?
But then, countless questions arose in his mind.
Why would Ye Linghan go to such lengths for the Ye Kingdom?
Going to war for the country at such a young age, no matter how capable he is, there is a high possibility that he will lose his life.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, he personally assisted the emperor. Every day, he had endless memorials to review and affairs to deal with, but in the end, he was hated by so many people.
What is the purpose?
He couldn't help but ask himself, if it were him, could he do this?
Of course it's impossible. If it were him, he would have quit long ago.
Thinking of this, he looked at Ye Linghan with a hint of confusion...
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Ye Linghan's voice startled the dazed Su Xing.
Su Xing shuddered and hastily looked away: "Ah, villain, villain..."
The more flustered he became, the less he knew how to answer, and he was so anxious that he wanted to jump out of the car.
"Is it because I'm good-looking again?" Ye Linghan actually teased Su Xing, and his expression didn't look as scary as when he just came out of the Ministry of Justice's prison.
Su Xing was almost frightened to death, which made it even more impossible for him to answer.
Fortunately, the carriage arrived at the Regent's Palace at this time, and Tianyi's voice slowly rang out: "Respectfully, Regent, we have arrived at the palace."
Su Xing secretly felt lucky that he had escaped the disaster, and at the same time secretly warned himself not to do such a stupid thing again.
Ye Linghan glanced at Su Xing leisurely, and when he noticed the relief on Su Xing's face, the corners of his mouth curled up again.
Tianyi and others were waiting nervously beside the car. They still remembered what happened in the Ministry of Justice prison and were afraid that Ye Linghan's bad mood would be affected.
But what shocked them was that Ye Linghan got out of the car as usual, as if nothing had happened.
What's going on?
Tianyi couldn't help but look at Su Xing who got off the bus behind him, his eyes full of disbelief.
After tossing and turning for most of the night, Su Xing was exhausted. He was in a highly nervous state and had no time to fall asleep.
Now that I'm back in the palace, my body gradually relaxes and my eyelids begin to twitch like crazy.
But Ye Linghan was still here, so how could he dare to act rashly? I could only pinch the flesh on my thigh secretly and try to stay awake.
He was grimacing because of the pinch he was making, but he was afraid that Ye Linghan would find out, so he could only lower his head. However, he did not notice that Ye Linghan in front of him had stopped, so he bumped into him directly.
Ye Linghan was stunned when he was hit. He stood there in a daze for a long time and didn't react.
Su Xing was so frightened that he could not speak clearly: "Yes, I am sorry, I did not mean it, please forgive me, Lord Regent."
Ye Linghan turned around slowly, his handsome face seemed to have other emotions besides coldness. He stared at Su Xing's rabbit-like eyes for a moment, then raised his head and ordered Tianyi: "Take him to bed."
After saying that, he turned around and seemed to be heading towards the study.
Su Xing was startled at first, and then he shouted at Ye Linghan's back: "Regent, aren't you going to rest yet?"
It’s already so late and you’re still not sleeping. Are you crazy?
Especially when he thought about what happened in the cell just now, he suddenly felt very sorry for Ye Linghan.
No one will appreciate you, so why do so much?
Ye Linghan paused for a moment, then turned around, looked at Su Xing with an ambiguous expression, and asked coldly: "What's wrong?"
Because of his indignation, Su Xing forgot his fear and continued to persuade: "No matter how much you care about government affairs, you should pay attention to rest. If your body collapses, you will not be able to do anything, right?"
Ye Linghan stared at Su Xing with deep eyes for a while, then asked mercilessly: "What does it have to do with you?"
Su Xing was stunned by the retort, his face turned red and pale, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Just then, hurried footsteps were heard not far away.
Everyone subconsciously looked up and saw a breathless criminal officer running over. When he saw Ye Linghan, he shouted in fear: "Regent, Marquis Mu Yuan is missing!"
