He Shen said softly, "That fire was set by the Crown Princess, wasn't it? The Crown Princess's plans are impeccable, I admire her!"
Lin Xiuyan couldn't explain to He Shen at this moment that she had no idea who had done it.
She smiled enigmatically and said nothing.
Anyway, it didn't matter who did it, it solved her immediate problem.
She reached up and pulled at the collar of her shirt, preparing to go back to her room.
After taking a few steps, she saw He Shen standing there without moving, and said, "You're quite interesting."
"You did very well tonight. The prince and I will not mistreat you in the future."
He Shen bowed slightly to Lin Xiuyan and said, "Thank you, Princess Consort, for sparing my life."
Lin Xiuyan smiled, knowing that this was not the place to talk, as the guards outside could return at any moment.
She raised an eyebrow slightly and went straight back to her room.
When she returned to her room, she saw that Ye Junfei had already returned sometime earlier.
His clothes were stained with blood.
She hurried to his side and asked, "Are you injured?"
Instead of answering, Ye Junfei asked, "Does it hurt your heart?"
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
At that moment, she had absolutely no desire to joke with him.
She said softly, "I'll apply the medicine for you."
Ye Junfei sat down very cooperatively, unbuttoned his clothes, his peach blossom eyes slanted, and the red mole at the corner of his eye was alluring.
His voice was gentle and tender: "Just coax me, tell me you feel sorry for me!"
Lin Xiuyan's heart skipped a beat when she heard his voice. This guy was really a huge menace!
She ignored him, pulled open his shirt, revealing his muscular chest.
Lin Xiuyan had actually seen him with his chest half-exposed several times, but when he actually exposed his entire chest to her, she still found it very exciting.
The most deadly thing was that he looked at her with his alluring eyes.
Her face flushed slightly without her noticing, and her heart started racing.
The ultimate male beauty is simply too captivating.
Lin Xiuyan held back for a moment, but couldn't resist any longer. She reached out and grabbed his head, turning it to the other side: "Don't seduce me!"
Ye Junfei chuckled softly, knowing that this was not the time to tease her, so he turned his head to the side to cooperate.
Lin Xiuyan ignored his laughter and reached out to pull his clothes open further, revealing the hideous wound on his side.
At this moment, the wound was turned inside out, and fresh blood was still flowing down.
She could tell that Ye Junfei had done some basic treatment on the wound, but it was still frightening.
She frowned and said, "You're injured like this, yet you act like nothing's wrong!"
"Ye Junfei, can't you feel any pain?"
Ye Junfei immediately leaned closer to her and whispered, "My wife, it hurts so much!"
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
Could this person be any more fake?
She took a deep breath, pushed him away slightly, and carefully examined his wound.
After examining the wound, Lin Xiuyan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Young Master, if this wound had been any deeper, it would have damaged the internal organs."
"This area is very close to the kidneys. If you keep playing like this, you won't be able to have sex even without the old hag doing anything."
Ye Junfei looked at her and said, "Why do I always feel a sense of schadenfreude when you say the words 'cannot have sex'?"
Lin Xiuyan replied, "You're mistaken. I'm just concerned about you."
Ye Junfei smiled: "Although your concern is a bit strange, I will accept it all as long as it is your concern."
Lin Xiuyan didn't argue with him. She quickly stitched up his wound and then applied medicine.
After treating the wound, she had Ye Junfei change his clothes, and then threw his blood-stained clothes and other belongings into the brazier and burned them all.
After taking care of these things, Lin Xiuyan asked, "How did you get injured?"
In her heart, his martial arts skills were extremely high, and there were few people in the world who could hurt him.
Ye Junfei replied, "The people Princess Anle sent were useless; they couldn't hold off that expert for long."
"I ran into him when I took my things out."
"Then Princess Anle's people realized they had been tricked, so they all came to attack me."
"There was a chaotic battle, and I only suffered minor injuries."
He spoke of it casually, but Lin Xiuyan could sense how dangerous it had been.
She couldn't help but ask, "What could you possibly risk your life to retrieve?"
Ye Junfei replied, "It's this one."
After he finished speaking, he took out a jade carving with a three-clawed dragon pattern from under his pillow.
The jade carving is of excellent quality, emitting a soft glow under the light.
Lin Xiuyan asked curiously, "What is this?"
Ye Junfei didn't say anything, but simply placed the object in Lin Xiuyan's hand.
Lin Xiuyan glanced at it with some curiosity and saw that it read: "By order of the Emperor, to forever suppress the fierce winds."
Lin Xiuyan asked in surprise, "Is this the jade seal of the Prince of Pingnan?"
When Emperor Taizu appointed the Prince of Pingnan to guard Liefeng Prefecture, he ordered skilled craftsmen in the palace to carve this seal.
To some extent, this seal represents the identity of the Prince of Pingnan.
Without this seal, the Prince of Pingnan could not be considered the Prince of Pingnan in a certain sense.
Lin Xiuyan quickly put the seal back into Ye Junfei's hand: "This thing is too important, you must keep it safe."
Ye Junfei said dismissively, "I am just a mere prince now, I can't use this seal even if I have it."
"Taking this seal is just a way to hasten the old man's demise." (Biquge)
"He probably already knows the seal is missing, and he can't sleep at all."
Lin Xiuyan knew his temperament.
He stole the seal of the Prince of Pingnan not because the seal was so important, but because the Prince of Pingnan would be restless if he lost the seal.
From now on, I will live in constant fear and anxiety.
At this point, Lin Xiuyan finally understood why Ye Junfei had brought Princess Anle's people into the palace.
Only in this way would the Prince of Pingnan believe that the jade seal had been stolen by Princess Anle's people.
Princess Anle could hand over the seal to the emperor, who could then use it as an excuse to reprimand Prince Pingnan, or even remove him from his post.
After Lin Xiuyan figured this out, she realized that Ye Junfei's heart was truly black!
She originally only wanted to use this incident to kill Granny Xu and get rid of this troublesome matter, but he set up such a big scheme.
Now that the jade seal is in their hands, Prince Pingnan will not only be unable to sleep tonight, but he will also find it difficult to sleep peacefully day and night from now on.
Furthermore, because of this incident, Prince Pingnan will try to kill Princess Anle and retrieve the jade seal.
To some extent, tonight's actions can be described as achieving four goals at once.
She gave him a thumbs up: "If we're talking about who's really capable, it's the young master. The way he arranged this was absolutely brilliant!"
Ye Junfei placed the jade seal in her hand and said, "If you like it, you can play with it from now on!"
Lin Xiuyan had no desire to play with such a dangerous thing, so she shoved it back at him: "I wouldn't take this even if you offered me a million taels of silver!"
