"ah--"
The door was suddenly kicked open. Ji Furong was startled and couldn't help but scream.
Ji Youlan slowly opened her eyes and looked towards the door.
However, after she saw the person coming, Ji Youlan slowly closed her eyes again, as if she didn't care about anything.
However, Ji Furong was shocked when she saw the person at the door.
Ji Furong widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.
Why didn't anyone inform her when King Yu came?
When did King Yu come? How much did he hear?
Ji Furong was extremely flustered, but she quickly calmed herself down, forced a smile and was about to speak.
"Ji Furong, when did I plan to marry you?" Ye Yuqing was about to explode with anger.
He never expected to hear such words at the door.
What about his wedding with Ji Furong?
What did it take four years to finally achieve success?
Was this how Ji Furong accompanied Lan'er when he was away? Was this how she said those words to her?
Suddenly, Ye Yuqing panicked.
He felt that some things seemed beyond his understanding.
He always thought that Ji Furong and Lan'er had a deep sisterly love, so when Ji Furong said she wanted to take care of Lan'er and Han'er, even though he didn't like her a little, he didn't refuse because of their deep sisterly love.
Besides, Lan'er never said anything.
But, if he was wrong about all this, then...
Thinking of this, Ye Yuqing looked at Ji Furong with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
Ji Furong naturally felt it, and she immediately knelt down and begged for mercy from Ye Yuqing, "Your Highness, this is a misunderstanding, you may have heard it wrong, I said..."
"Do you think I'm deaf?" Ye Yuqing was angry.
Ji Furong: "...I...I was just joking with my sister..."
"Your joke makes me feel sick." Ye Yuqing said coldly without waiting for Ji Furong to finish her words.
Ji Furong's face turned pale.
Although she was a concubine's daughter, she had taken care of her sister and niece for many years without getting married. Her reputation had spread a long time ago, and she had been praised over the years.
Even in this palace, including King Yu, everyone treated her with respect, and she had never heard such vicious words.
And these words came from the mouth of King Yu, whom she had been thinking about all the time, which made it difficult for her to accept for a while.
Ye Yuqing is not a fool after all.
In fact, Ye Yuqing is very smart.
It was precisely because of his intelligence that he competed with Ye Changyou for the throne in the past few years and was at odds with Ye Changyou in the court.
Because Ye Yuqing knew very well that if someone like Ye Changyou ascended the throne, none of his brothers would be in trouble.
The eldest brother is kind and does not fight, the fourth brother is weak, the fifth brother is not in the capital, the seventh brother is young and is not liked by his father... In short, only he can stand up and compete with Ye Changyou.
As for the throne... he actually doesn't want it.
After all, which emperor doesn’t have a lot of things to do every day?
But he is not very ambitious. He just wants to protect Lan'er and his own world.
He doesn't fight anymore because the fifth brother is back and the second brother is in trouble, so there is no need for him to fight anymore.
As long as he is not the second in command, it makes no difference to him who becomes the emperor.
How could someone who could think of such a thing not be smart?
Therefore, Ye Yuqing was very clear that there were a lot of things going on here.
So, without even looking at Ji Furong's pale face, Ye Yuqing spoke directly, "Someone come——"
Soon, the palace's secret guards appeared.
"Drag her out and interrogate her thoroughly." Ye Yuqing's face was gloomy and his eyes were cold.
At this moment, Su Liyue seemed to see the shadow of Ye Cangming in Ye Yuqing.
After all, they are brothers, and their auras are very similar when they get angry.
"No——" Ji Furong came back to her senses, her face full of horror, "Prince, no, this is all a misunderstanding, this is really just a misunderstanding..."
As she spoke, Ji Furong looked at Ji Youlan, "Sister, sister, please say something quickly. Please ask King Yu to let me go. I... I was just joking with you. I really was just joking with you."
Ji Furong looked very embarrassed.
At this time, Ji Youlan had opened her eyes again. She looked at Ji Furong with no expression on her face, or rather, she didn't have the energy to show any extra expression. She just looked at Ji Furong, but didn't seem to want to plead with her.
The secret guard looked at Ye Yuqing, waiting for Ye Yuqing's instructions.
Ye Yuqing: "Just drag him away, no mercy."
Ye Yuqing is very cold.
Then, when Ji Furong wanted to beg for mercy, the secret guard got a piece of rag from somewhere and stuffed it directly into Ji Furong's mouth.
"Wuwuwu——" Ji Furong's eyes were filled with tears as she watched Ye Yuqing struggle.
However, Ye Yuqing didn't even glance at her. His gaze was always on Ji Youlan who had already opened her eyes.
And the two looked at each other.
At this moment, both of them were full of doubts and had many questions they wanted to ask.
Ji Furong was dragged away with a look of despair on her face, and the room fell into an unspeakable silence.
Su Liyue felt it was quite embarrassing for her to stand here as an outsider.
She really wanted to turn around and leave, leaving this silence to the two people in front of her.
From the moment she heard Ji Furong's words at the door, Su Liyue had basically determined that Ji Furong must have been the one who was obstructing the current situation.
