Chapter 272 The Secret of That Year



Is Yang Xinwan directly admitting that she has lost her virginity? Has she been having an affair with other men for a long time?

Neither of the two maids expected that Yang Xinwan would admit it so generously.

One of the maids showed disgust on her face: "How shameless! You have no shame at all for doing such a thing! You should just hit your head against a wall and die!"

Yang Xinwan looked at the person who was speaking with contempt, as if she was too lazy to argue with him.

Soon, the two maids left the cell together and reported the situation to the housekeeper.

The housekeeper couldn't help but be surprised. How could a woman be so shameless?

"Whether what she said is true or not, we have to verify it!"

The nanny replied: "We have tested it, and it can't show the chastity of the virgin. She has already lost her virginity!"

The housekeeper was relieved and went to report to Yun Zhiyuan.

Yun Zhiyuan was not surprised, but news had also come from the palace that the emperor had not punished him and there was no stir.

This is completely different from what Yun Zhiyuan thought...

He had a gloomy face and looked extremely ugly.

At this time, a servant came over and said, "Prince, the people over at Yuchi Mansion can't wait any longer and have come to inquire about the results."

Yun Zhiyuan looked at the housekeeper with sharp eyes: "Go to Yuchi Mansion..."

The butler was surprised. Even if the matter failed, he could just send someone to reply to the letter. Why did he need to make a trip in person?

The butler finally understood after Yun Zhiyuan had told him privately.

In Yuchi Mansion.

Yang Qingyuan and Yuchi Xiu, upon hearing that someone from the Prince's residence had come in person, hurried to greet them.

But looking at the butler's expression, there didn't seem to be any joy on his face?

"I wonder what the result will be?" Yuchi Xiu asked suspiciously.

The housekeeper sighed, "Things didn't go well, the emperor didn't punish the two of them!"

Yang Qingyuan was stunned: "How could this happen? Doesn't the emperor believe my and my husband's confessions? This shouldn't happen. I came from the Prime Minister's Mansion. It's unreasonable for me to wrongly accuse my elder sister, right?"

The butler sighed and said, "That's the truth. I failed this time, so the prince asked me to come here in person."

"Now that we have taken action, we cannot give up easily. Do you have any evidence that the Fourth Prince is a guard in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Yang Xinwan had an affair with Yun Xuanting, and Yang Xinwan deceived the emperor, these cannot make the emperor punish her, but Yun Xuanting deceived the emperor and returned to Beijing early, and used a substitute, these cannot be easily forgiven, right?

Yang Qingyuan was embarrassed. How could she not know that as long as she had this kind of evidence, it would definitely be a heavy blow to Yun Xuanting, but the fact was that she couldn't produce any evidence...

Although there are many witnesses in the Prime Minister's residence, unless the Prime Minister personally testifies, the others have no authority...

Yang Qingyuan shook her head.

The butler did not say anything else. After conveying what he wanted to say, he left.

As soon as the butler left, Yuchi Xiu reminded him solemnly, "We have offended the Fourth Prince, but the Emperor did not take action against him."

"What if the Fourth Prince takes revenge on our Yuchi Mansion? And your eldest sister is Doctor Yang, my father's leg..."

Yang Qingyuan questioned with disdain: "Ah Xiu, are you saying that you are afraid? Do you think that if you stop now, Yang Xinwan and the Fourth Prince will forget what we did?"

From now on, Yuchi Xiu is still a coward!

Seeing Yang Qingyuan's determined expression, Yuchi Xiu couldn't help but sigh: "Our original intention was just to separate your elder sister and the fourth prince, so that they can recognize their relationship and not affect your reputation."

"But now the Crown Prince wants us to provide evidence that the Fourth Prince is deceiving the emperor. This is not something we should interfere with!"

So Yuchi Xiu wanted to stop!

Yang Qingyuan was a little annoyed: "I've already offended him, it's too late to stop!"

At this moment, Yang Qingyuan's tone was a little heavy, and naturally her eyes were sharp.

Yuchi Xiu had never seen Yang Qingyuan like this before. He was a little stunned, looking at her, he felt that she was strange.

Yang Qingyuan was too lazy to coax Yuchi Xiu, so she turned around and left.

As the emperor delayed punishing Yang Xinwan, Yun Zhiyuan released Yang Xinwan.

Yang Xinwan looked at the housekeeper and asked with a smile: ā€œI’m really curious, how did the prince get slightly poisoned?ā€

The housekeeper snorted: "The person who harmed the prince must not be the prince himself!"

"And you are one of the people who hope that the prince will be killed, so what you testify may not be true! On the contrary, it may be a frame-up!"

Therefore, the housekeeper was not interested in knowing the results of Yang Xinwan's search.

Yang Xinwan raised her eyebrows. If he didn't want to know, then she wouldn't say anything more.

After Yang Xinwan returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, as expected, she saw a familiar figure waiting for her in the room.

"How on earth did you manage to avoid being punished by the Emperor today?"

Yun Xuanting looked calm. He said, "Father knows that there is nothing he can do to change what happened, so I promised to handle the matter cleanly!"

"One is that the scandal will be exposed, bringing disgrace to the royal family, and the other is that it will help me and you to be together and make things more beautiful. There is no reason for father to choose the first possibility!"

Yang Xinwan said hesitantly: "But what we are doing is challenging the emperor's power. Many emperors will not tolerate this!"

Yun Xuanting explained helplessly: "But you and I want to be together. Father will know about what happened between you and me sooner or later!"

"I confessed and asked Father to grant my wish. This is a gamble!"

Yang Xinwan frowned even more: "What if the bet fails?"

Yun Xuanting said calmly: "Then elope with me."

The corner of Yang Xinwan's mouth twitched. So Yun Xuanting's trump card is just this?

"Ahem, now that the Emperor knows my identity, it shouldn't be difficult for me to resign from the Imperial Hospital. However, I'm afraid the Crown Prince won't let it go."

"You and he are brothers from the same mother after all. Are you two really sure you want to continue fighting?"

Yun Xuanting's expression was originally calm and indifferent, but at this moment, he looked a little more solemn.

"Do you know why I appeared in the National Temple in the first place?"

Yang Xinwan had been curious about this question before, but had never asked about it.

Now that Yun Xuanting mentioned it on his own initiative, she became interested.

"you say."

Yun Xuanting frowned and said, "I want to find out the truth about my mother's death!"

Yang Xinwan couldn't help but be surprised: "Your mother was a concubine, of noble status, how could she die in the palace without knowing why? Moreover, she should be buried in the imperial mausoleum, and her spirit tablet should also be there, how could it be in the national temple?"

Yun Xuanting explained: "I also found out about the temple because I found out that my mother's spirit tablet was enshrined in the temple. There was also an old friend in the temple who was guarding my mother's spirit tablet in the temple to repent for someone."

Yang Xinwan was stunned. Repent?

The word "repent" sounded like it was saying that Yun Xuanting's mother died unjustly and there was something else going on!

"Who is involved in your mother's death?"

Yun Xuanting spoke so obscurely and mentioned something extremely unpleasant. Yang Xinwan felt that the person was most likely someone close to Yun Xuanting.
