Chapter 223 I like it too

Ling Fengxun was worried that An Yunxi was frightened, so he accompanied her back to the palace before finishing the matter here.

After telling Chunyue and others to take good care of the princess, Ling Fengxun went to the palace overnight.

Now he can go in and out of the palace as he pleases, without having to inform anyone.

He came all the way to the Yangxin Palace, and a little eunuch reported in advance that Ling Changyue was still resting in the Yangxin Palace.

Ling Changyue was unable to leave the palace.

When Ling Fengxun rushed outside to rescue An Yunxi, he also wanted to go over to take a look, but was stopped.

As an emperor, he has now become the least free one, which is really ridiculous.

When he heard that Ling Fengxun was about to arrive, he stood up anxiously almost immediately, with an undisguised worry on his face.

Seeing the tall man coming in through the door, Ling Changyue's eyes flushed slightly, and then he asked: "Uncle Huang, is Xier injured?"

"Xier?"

Ling Fengxun couldn't help but frowned, and his voice suddenly became extremely cold.

Ling Changyue's breath was choked, and he changed the subject: "It's the princess."

Ling Fengxun was satisfied, then nodded, strode to the middle chair and sat down.

Eunuch Xu hurriedly came over from the side with tact, took a clean cup and poured tea for the Regent.

The little emperor Ling Changyue could only stand by helplessly, watching others snatch his chair away, not daring to say a word.

"Go and call the second prince and the third prince. I have something to ask them."

Ling Fengxun gave an order.

Eunuch Xu immediately saluted and walked out.

Ling Changyue glanced at the night outside. The dim candlelight made his face look even uglier.

"I wonder why Uncle Huang came to me in the middle of the night?"

He stood and Ling Fengxun sat. The two looked at each other, but their auras were completely different.

"Interrogation."

Just two simple words, but Ling Changyue's expression changed slightly.

Is Ling Fengxun going to interrogate the princes?

Not long after, the second and third princes came running over in a hurry.

Both were panting, and the third prince even wore his pants backwards.

His clothes were disheveled, his hair was messy, and he looked like he had just crawled out of the quilt.

"Greetings, Uncle Huang!"

The two of them knelt on the ground in unison, their postures and movements were extremely skillful.

Compared to the stiffness of the crown prince, these two were already very accustomed to it!

Ling Fengxun did not keep the question secret and asked directly: "Do you two know that the princess was assassinated in the imperial city?"

The second prince Ling Changxi lowered his eyes slightly: "Nephew knows"

"What about you?"

The third prince Ling Changyu was confused: "What? An Yunxi was assassinated?"

He still had a confused look on his face, as if he knew nothing about this matter.

Ling Fengxun suddenly slammed his hand on the table.

The huge sound made the three princes standing in the room shudder.

"My princess encountered an assassin in the imperial city. Who do you think I should blame?"

Ling Changxi took the initiative to admit his fault: "Uncle, it's all my fault. I didn't do my job well and didn't clean up the imperial city thoroughly."

Ling Changyue said unwillingly: "It's also my fault."

He didn't know where he was wrong.

But he knew that now that Ling Fengxun was angry, he could only bow his head to avoid getting burned.

The third prince also said in panic: "I'm also wrong, Uncle!"

Ling Fengxun's eyes swept over the faces of the three people: "The person who assassinated the princess should step forward, otherwise..."

How could Ling Fengxun let go of someone who touched him in the street?

Since it is inferred that these people were trained by the royal family, then don't blame him for being ruthless and disregarding the slightest blood relationship.

Ling Changyue's expression suddenly changed when he saw that Ling Fengxun was serious about finding the murderer among them.

"Uncle, do you think it was done by the three of us brothers?"

Ling Fengxun didn't say anything, but his face became colder.

"Otherwise?"

Who else could let the assassin into the imperial city?

Ling Changxi knelt on the ground and dared not get up. "Uncle Huang, it was not my nephew's fault. I have been busy training the imperial guards recently and have never stepped out of the training ground!"

Ling Changyu also hurriedly explained: "I didn't do it either. My mother has been keeping me in the palace to study and I have never been anywhere!"

Ling Changyue listened to the explanations of his two brothers and his heart had sunk to the bottom.

He had used various schemes to harm An Yunxi in the beginning, and even drugged her at their wedding, almost making her suffer endless humiliation.

Now someone wants to assassinate An Yunxi, there is no doubt that Ling Fengxun must suspect him.

Ling Changyue did not kneel down to Ling Fengxun like the other two brothers.

No matter what, he is the emperor of Beiling Kingdom now. Even if he is just in name only, he still has dignity.

Even if he hangs himself or dies in Yangxin Palace today, he will never kneel down to Ling Fengxun!

"Uncle Xuan, do you suspect that I want to assassinate Princess Xuan?"

Ling Fengxun slowly raised his eyes, just looked at the prince quietly, without saying a word.

A little anger rose in Ling Changyue's heart.

He was not angry because he was suspected by Ling Fengxun, but he was afraid that An Yunxi thought so too.

She thought that he wanted to send someone to kill her.

So he must explain for himself and clear his grievances!

"I am the emperor now. What good will it do for me to kill Xier? It might even anger my uncle and make him kill me directly!"

Ling Fengxun nodded slightly and gave him a look that asked him to continue.

Ling Changyue tightened his expression and said, "And I've said before that the person I like is Yun Xi, so I will never do anything to hurt her!"

As soon as these words fell, the hall fell silent.

The two brothers Ling Changxi and Ling Changyu raised their heads from their kneeling positions and stared at the prince, no, the emperor, in amazement.

Both of their eyes almost popped out, and there was only one thought in their minds.

My brother is so brave!

To say that he likes Princess Xian in front of Uncle Xian is simply treason!

But Ling Fengxun was not angry.

Hearing these provocative words, a mocking arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Are you worthy of liking Xier?"

It was just a simple sentence, but it was like a knife, stabbing back and forth in Ling Changyue's heart.

He lowered his eyes, and his whole body was shaking slightly.

But he still mustered up the courage to say: "Uncle Xuan, nephew has no other intentions, I am just stating the facts. I made a big mistake before, I am sorry for Yun Xi, from then on I swear that I will never hurt her again."

Ling Fengxuan still sat on the chair, slowly raised his eyes, and his phoenix eyes were filled with endless darkness, like an abyss.
