"Where is Yuning?" Cheng Ying asked concisely.
Yu Qizhe stood up and led him behind the screen.
Cheng Ying stood in front of the couch and saw Yu Jiao unconscious with blood all over her body. Her pretty face was pale and lifeless, with teeth marks on her soft lips.
This little girl is always full of life in front of him. How could she ever be like this?
She wanted to kill him, but he was reluctant to punish the girl severely. How dare Zhu Yu treat her like this!
When Cheng Ying thought of this, his face turned even colder. He frowned and asked, "How can we not invite the imperial physician?"
"There are many people in the palace and it concerns Yu Jiao's reputation, so it's not easy to ask the imperial physician to come." Yu Qizhe noticed the remaining smell of the aphrodisiac in the hall when he entered the hall. He explained, "Yu Jiao just inhaled too much aphrodisiac and fell asleep."
After hearing what Yu Qizhe said, Cheng Ying came out from behind the screen and said, "Xia Ning, go to the Imperial Hospital and get Feng Ning."
Xia Ning responded and left.
Zhu Yu looked at Cheng Ying anxiously. Before Cheng Ying could start to attack, he said, "Master Cheng, this is all Yang Congwen's fault. I never thought he would be so bold! He actually did such a ridiculous thing to your adopted daughter. He must be holding a grudge for having one of his hands crippled by Young Marquis Gu, so he resorted to such a despicable means to trick Miss Liu San into coming to my East Palace to commit an illegal act!"
Cheng Ying smiled sinisterly and glanced at Zhu Yu, "So, this matter has nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Zhu Yu nodded hurriedly, "That's right. I was handling official business with Cui Shidu in the side hall, and I didn't know that Yang Congwen had tricked Miss Liu San into my East Palace in my name." He sighed softly, "It's also my fault that I have always been gentle and docile, and I didn't discipline my subordinates, so Yang Congwen was so bold!"
Cheng Ying sneered, and he walked closer to Zhu Yu, with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, "Does the prince think I am a fool? Bring me in."
As soon as he finished speaking, a guard from the factory brought a eunuch into the hall and threw him to the ground.
The eunuch trembled all over and knelt on the ground and said, "It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who ordered me to put on the clothes of the Imperial Household Department and trick Miss Liu San into the Eastern Palace in the name of Cheng Zhangyin."
Zhu Yu was immediately furious, "Where did you come from, you dog slave? How dare you bite me? Who ordered you to do that?"
Cheng Ying was already tired of watching Zhu Yu's acting, and he sneered, "Prince, you may have forgotten that the entire palace is full of eyes from the East Factory."
"It's not me..." Before Zhu Yu finished speaking, Cheng Ying suddenly grabbed his neck. He slowly exerted force, approached Zhu Yu, and said in a deep voice, "You dare to touch her. Do you think that because you are the prince, I dare not touch you?"
Zhu Yu was almost strangled to death, his face turned red and purple, he struggled to pry Cheng Ying's hands apart, but they didn't move at all.
All the palace servants were terrified. This was the current crown prince. Was Cheng Ying really going to be charged with murdering the crown prince just because of an adopted daughter?
No matter how much the emperor favors Cheng Ying, he is just a servant after all, and the prince is the crown prince!
A few palace servants were ready to step forward to stop it, but before they could move, they were kicked to the ground by the guards from the East Factory.
Only when Zhu Xun rolled his eyes, his limbs became weak, and he was about to suffocate to death did Cheng Ying let go of his hand.
Zhu Xun collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath. Having escaped from the gates of hell, he trembled all over as if he had survived a catastrophe. He said weakly, "I am the crown prince, Cheng Ying, aren't you afraid that your father will punish you?"
