Chapter 78 What are you doing here?
As soon as Su Xing and Ye Linghan came out of the cell, they saw Ye Lingchen walking hurriedly towards them.
"Royal brother." Ye Lingchen rarely had a serious expression, even a little serious: "The kidnapping of Xia Chengxun's son Xia Yunjie has been verified. It is true. People who know the situation said that Xia Yunjie was summoned to the palace by the Queen Mother that day, and was kidnapped on the way back to the mansion. Not long after, the Xia Mansion received the news that Xia Yunjie had an accident."
After taking a breath, he continued, "The Xia family did not report to the police, nor did they send anyone out to look for him. Two days later, Xia Yunjie suddenly returned home on his own. Xia Chengxun issued a death order to all those who knew about it, not to tell anyone about it, otherwise it would be a betrayal of the Xia family."
Ye Linghan frowned as he listened, then asked, "How did you find out?"
Ye Lingchen seemed to be ready at any time and answered directly: "My people happened to know one of the insiders of this matter. When they were drinking, the insider got drunk and let the secret slip."
After listening to Ye Lingchen's explanation, Su Xing was very surprised.
He originally thought that since Xia Yunxi was also a member of the rebellion, Xia Chengxun was not threatened by Marquis Mu Yuan, and the kidnapping of Xia Yunjie must have been fabricated by Marquis Mu Yuan.
Unexpectedly, Xia Yunjie was actually kidnapped...
Could it be that Xia Chengxun was indeed threatened by Marquis Mu Yuan, and after he compromised, he persuaded Xia Yunxi to join him in a rebellion?
Isn’t this too impulsive?
Because his son was kidnapped, he not only rebelled himself, but also brought his daughter who was already the queen mother and his grandson who was the king of a country with him...
Is it too risky?
Or maybe Xia Chengxun had already anticipated that he would be caught, so he staged a kidnapping scene in advance to make excuses later?
Su Xing didn't think that Xia Chengxun could be so prepared. Such thoughts were too scary. Besides, such a powerful person should not be caught so easily.
Or...Su Xing suddenly remembered what Ye Lingchen said, that Xia Yunjie was kidnapped after meeting Xia Yunxi...
Maybe... the kidnapping is related to Xia Yunxi?
But it doesn't make sense. If Xia Yunxi wanted to join forces with her father to rebel, she could just persuade him directly. Why did she have to kidnap Xia Chengxun to force him?
Su Xing, who was really confused, subconsciously looked at Ye Linghan, but saw that Ye Linghan was also in deep thought, his handsome face was so terribly gloomy that people dared not disturb him.
He had no choice but to turn his gaze to Ye Lingchen again. Ye Lingchen felt Su Xing's gaze and immediately turned to meet him.
After their eyes met, his serious expression instantly returned to his usual funny look.
Ye Lingchen blinked at Su Xing and raised his eyebrows, but no one knew what he wanted to express.
Su Xing was so amused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was afraid that he really couldn't help laughing, so he quickly turned his eyes away.
However, Ye Linghan had already noticed the two people staring at each other, and his already gloomy and terrifying face suddenly became even more gloomy and terrifying.
In an instant, the air around them seemed to freeze, not to mention Su Xing and Ye Lingchen.
They shrank their necks in tacit understanding, then lowered their heads to look at their feet, their movements were consistent as if they had rehearsed it in advance.
Ye Linghan's sharp cold light swept over the heads of the two men one by one. Just as he was about to shout angrily, he was interrupted by Ying Er who suddenly appeared.
Su Xing suddenly felt a gust of cold wind coming. He raised his head nervously and saw Ying Er kneeling on the ground: "I am incompetent and have not found any useful clues. Please punish me, Regent."
Su Xing was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that Ye Linghan had ordered Ying Er to investigate the matter of Xia Yunxi and her son, and his neck suddenly tightened.
He and Ye Linghan were together because of that incident...
After a brief moment of fear, he became confused again.
Shadow 2 actually got nothing?
Although he didn't know what Ying Er's abilities were, the fact that he was Ye Linghan's secret guard meant he couldn't be that bad.
Is it because Xia Yunxi is too good at hiding?
Or is Xia Yunxi innocent and everything is just a misunderstanding on their part?
Whenever Su Xing encountered confusion, he habitually looked at Ye Linghan. Ye Linghan just happened to speak in a gloomy tone: "Are you sure you checked it carefully?"
There was a hint of disbelief in Ye Linghan's tone. Although it was not very obvious, the sensitive Su Xing caught it.
It seemed that Ye Linghan was as surprised as he was.
Ying Er raised his head and said with a firm look, "Your Majesty, I am sure."
Ye Linghan did not get angry, but fell into deep thought again.
Ye Lingchen had no idea what they were talking about. It was like listening to a mystery. He could only look to Su Xing for help.
Su Xing had been looking at Ye Linghan and did not notice Ye Lingchen's request for help.
After a long while, Ye Linghan ordered again: "Continue to investigate, including the people around them."
Ying Er immediately lowered his head: "Yes!"
After Ying Er left, Ye Lingchen asked impatiently, "Brother, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"
Ye Linghan turned to Ye Lingchen coldly, finally having the opportunity to vent his anger: "You don't need to know."
After saying that, he just walked away.
Ye Lingchen stopped where he was, depressed, staring at Ye Linghan's back with resentful eyes.
Seeing that Ye Linghan didn't say anything, Su Xing didn't dare to tell Ye Lingchen without permission.
He glanced at Ye Lingchen apologetically, then quickly followed behind Ye Linghan.
Ye Linghan paused slightly when he heard the footsteps behind him. He stayed where he was for a moment, slowly turned around, and stared at Su Xing with a cold expression.
Su Xing was startled by being looked at, and then blinked in confusion.
Seeing this, Ye Linghan suddenly sneered with sarcasm: "What are you doing here? Did the king ask you to come with me?"
Su Xing froze for a moment, and then his pretty face quickly turned red, and he felt extremely embarrassed and ashamed.
He looked away at a loss, lowered his head in embarrassment, and apologized incoherently: "I...it's not...I'm sorry...it's me who doesn't know what's good for me...I'll take my leave..."
After saying that, he turned around hurriedly and ran away as if fleeing.
Ye Linghan opened his mouth immediately when he saw Su Xing turn around, but he closed it again when the words came to his lips.
Why did he keep that guy?
Many things become weird because of that guy's appearance. When that guy is gone, everything will go back to the way it was before.
As for that guy's ability, just let him come over when needed.
If he performs well, for Su Yuan's sake, we can consider giving him an official position and let him serve the court.
Thinking of this, Ye Linghan narrowed his eyes, then turned around and walked towards the study.
Ye Lingchen looked at the changes in front of him and didn't know how to react for a moment.
He was impressed by Ye Linghan, the sixth guy. How come he was so stupid?
He had put in so much effort to finally get Su Xing back, but he was chased away by Ye Linghan so easily?
It would be fine to just chase them away, but how can you humiliate them like that?
What benefits will this bring to you? Isn't it you who are unlucky in the end?
It's not that I won't report it, it's just that the time has not come yet...
Ye Lingchen cursed Ye Linghan from head to toe in his heart several times before he turned around helplessly and chased in the direction of Su Xing.
He swore that this would definitely be his last time to be a good person, and if Ye Linghan still did not repent, he would let Su Xing get married and have children as soon as possible.
When the time comes, let Ye Linghan regret it!
