Qin Ye was stunned for a moment, his eyes slightly lowered, looking at the letter on the table.

This letter talked about the prince's intention to rebel. It was sent to the palace by Jing Yi. Unexpectedly, the emperor directly guessed her relationship with Jing Yi through this letter!

What poisonous eyes!

She immediately replied, "When I went to Dongning City to deal with the epidemic, I met Manager Jing by chance. We worked together to study medicine and help the people. We became friends for a few days."

"After returning to the capital, we had one exchange and we are friends."

"Oh?" The emperor looked at Qin Ye with a calm expression, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking at the moment.

Last night, he received two messages.

One is from King Chen; the other is from Jing Yi.

Jing Yi is a commoner, the owner of a medical clinic, but he has a selfless heart to save the world and can see through the prince's movements. I'm afraid he is not an ordinary person.

However, he discovered that Jing Yi was connected to Qin Ye.

If Qin Ye borrowed Jing Yi's hand and had any ulterior motives...

The emperor's cloudy eyes darkened a little, "He is a smart man, but he is unwilling to serve as an official in the court. What a pity."

After saying this, he suddenly asked:

"Why were you outside the palace gate last night?"

This sentence is the key point.

Qin Ye bowed his head respectfully and answered in an orderly manner: "A few days ago, I went back to Prime Minister Qin's residence and found out that the Left Prime Minister Qin secretly gave Qin Hongluan a huge sum of money. At that time, I felt strange and paid some attention to the affairs of the Crown Prince's residence."

Because of my concern, I only received the news last night.

"Oh." The emperor nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

His face looked normal, and I didn't know whether he believed it or not, and I didn't know whether he was still suspicious or what.

moment.

He looked at Qin Ye's belly and said, "We've been married for almost a year, why haven't you gotten pregnant yet?"

Qin Ye paused:

"You can't force the fate of having children. If you have them, you have them. If you don't, you don't have them. Even if I want them very much..." She felt that her answer was very Buddhist, like a forty-year-old Buddhist aunt.

The conversation with the Emperor was a bit awkward.

At the same time, she found that the emperor was a suspicious person.

The prince's rebellion damaged the royal family's reputation, so the emperor chose to cover up the matter, but she and Jing Yi knew about it. The emperor must have felt embarrassed, so he summoned her to the palace to give her a lecture.

She knows what to say and what not to say.

Besides, the prince had fallen, and she was so happy that she couldn't contain herself to get rid of such a big trouble.

After the emperor asked a few more questions, he dismissed Qin Ye.

After Qin Ye left, he sat there silently, and no one knew what he was thinking.

He just suddenly realized that Qin Ye seemed too smart, and it was not a good thing for a woman to be too smart...

.

Qin Ye left the palace, and Jing Yi, who received the news, was waiting there early.

When Qin Ye saw him, he immediately pulled him to a secret place and warned him in a low voice:

"The emperor doesn't seem to like women knowing too much, nor does he want others to hide things from him, and he doesn't want me to be out of his control. If you want to find me in the future, do it in private and don't expose it."

Jing Yi wrote it down.

It was precisely because of this that he felt constrained and not free, and therefore refused the emperor's invitation to serve as an official in the court.

Right now, the crown prince has fallen, which will cause many, many things...

It was a turbulent time, so after Qin Ye quickly explained a few words to Jing Yi, he didn't stay any longer and immediately returned to Prince Chen's Mansion.

As soon as I walked to the gate of Hanfeng Courtyard, I saw the Miao woman in exotic clothes enter the house and close the door...

Qin Ye paused, looked at the closed door, and narrowed his eyes.
