Chapter 36 Good Mood
In the court, Prince Yong Lingyu, the victim of the assassination, personally defended Ji Yanxing.
Not only Ling Yu, but many other ministers in the court also wrote to the emperor that Ji Yanxing was likely framed, and the assassin's move was to harm a famous general of the Ling Kingdom.
In the Golden Palace, memorials pleading for Ji Yanxing came one after another, each one passionate and impassioned.
Ji Yanxing's father, Ji Shizhong, was sweating profusely and didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Naturally, he didn't want his bloodline to be imprisoned, but Ji Yanxing had fallen hard after a high rise, and His Majesty was already wary of him. He gave up Ji Yanxing, but was able to keep the Ji family safe, which was already a very good result.
So he put the interests of the country above his own and personally accused Ji Yanxing of colluding with the assassin.
Who knew that Prince Yong Lingyu himself would come to plead and defend Ji Yanxing!
Prince Yong has always been indifferent to the affairs of the court.
When he returned to the capital from the border, His Majesty was wary of him. He should have kept quiet and not gotten involved in Ji Yanxing's case.
Didn't he see that His Majesty intended to remove Ji Yanxing's military power in the case of Ji Yanxing?
If Ji Yanxing is innocent, what will become of his Ji family?
A villain who would frame his own son in order to save his own life?
"I also think that General Ji should not do such a thing. What do you think, Minister Ji?" The emperor's voice was cold.
"Your Majesty! I am guilty! I accused my son without understanding the truth, deceiving Your Majesty. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
At this point, the emperor cannot be wrong. Only Minister Ji can identify the person behind this case to prevent the military generals in the court from having any grudges against His Majesty and to save the Ji family.
In the end, Ji Yanxing was released and reinstated, while Ji Shizhong was demoted three levels and sent to serve as an official in a remote area. The real culprit behind the assassination was still unknown.
Ling Qingyan finally felt relieved.
Go all out.
Ling Qingyan planned to go boating with Ji Yanxing on the first night he came out.
Catch him off guard.
She is so smart.
So, she quietly asked Xilan to prepare tonight's pleasure boat cruise on the lake according to her requirements.
A boat covered with flowers, food from the best restaurant in the capital, and timely fireworks.
Everything is ready, just waiting for the east wind.
Tonight is destined to be a night that will increase our love value!
Although everything was almost ready, Ling Qingyan forgot one person.
Pei Wuyou, Pei Wuyou is really too sensitive.
She had been going out too many times without him lately.
She really couldn't come up with any good excuse.
The pomegranate red butterfly dress that she had ordered made in advance has been delivered, and she really needs to start dressing up.
But Pei Wuyou still pestered her to read to him.
Brother, I know you are studious, but don’t be so studious for now.
Finally, she had an idea and could only come up with a bad plan.
"You've been studying for so long, eat something." Ling Qingyan smiled and handed him a plate of pastries.
Pei Wuyou looked at the plate of pastries with a smile in his eyes, then looked at Ling Qingyan.
"Sister, did you make this specially for me?" Pei Wuyou's face was filled with joy.
Ling Qingyan felt a little guilty, but still answered, "Yes, I made this especially for our little brother Pei who listens to me and studies hard."
She wasn't lying to him.
That's true.
No one else can eat this plate of drugged pastries.
Alas, I’m sorry, I feel guilty, but brother, you still have to eat it.
Pei Wuyou pinched the pastry with his slender fingers, paused, and then put it in his mouth.
Ling Qingyan just watched him eat it.
Pei Wuyou's eyes seemed to be filled with stars, shining brightly as he looked at Ling Qingyan, "The cakes my sister gave me are so delicious. My sister is so kind to me."
Ling Qingyan glanced out the window uncomfortably.
The sunset is so beautiful.
Pei Wuyou fell down.
Finally, Ling Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief.
She had Pei Wuyou carried to the bed.
Then Xilan did her makeup. She was naturally beautiful, and with the beautiful makeup, she became even more dazzling and beautiful.
"Is everything done?" Ling Qingyan asked.
"It's done, Your Highness. Everything is done according to Your Highness's request."
Ling Qingyan was relieved.
The night is like a curtain and the moon is as cool as water.
There are many beautiful pleasure boats floating on the moat, and the spring evening breeze is very comfortable. The noble men and ladies of the capital city like to hold banquets and poetry collections on the pleasure boats, which is very lively.
The boats are more beautiful than each other. Warm yellow candlelight is lit in the boats, dotted on the sparkling water. On the shore, the voices of vendors selling various things can be heard.
The capital city at night is still bustling and lively.
Ling Qingyan's pleasure boat stopped at the shore, waiting for her people to bring Ji Yanxing over.
When Ji Yanxing heard that Ling Qingyan planned to ask him to accompany her on a boat trip today, he was stunned at first, and then his heart was filled with excitement bit by bit.
He also changed his clothes, took a bath and burned incense, and went to meet the girl in his best condition.
Under the moonlight at night, amid the bustling crowd, Ji Yanxing could see the girl at a glance.
The boat was just as she said, decorated with many fresh and beautiful flowers, and she, standing on the boat, looked like a fairy who came to pick him up to spend time in the clouds, wearing a red dress and a graceful figure.
His footsteps seemed to be stepping on my heart, and my heart beat faster and faster.
The girl also saw her and smiled at him. Her smile was so bright and beautiful that none of the flowers around her could compare to her beauty.
"General Ji, your reward is here." Ling Qingyan extended her hand to him gently, as if it were some kind of invitation, and Ji Yanxing's heart was beating like a drum.
Ling Qingyan prepared a table full of delicious food and fine wine.
The boat started moving slowly.
"Delicious food, fine wine and beautiful women are all here to welcome you. Which one do you like, General Ji?" The girl tilted her head and looked at him with clear eyes.
"Is that even a question?" Ji Yanxing moved closer to her. "Of course, I like the person in front of me the most."
He said it so tenderly.
Perhaps because the love words were too sweet, Ling Qingyan's ears felt a little hot.
The boat swayed slightly on the water, and under the moonlight, the two looked into each other's eyes.
"How much do you like it?"
Before Ji Yanxing could answer, the boat suddenly stopped.
Ruining the atmosphere.
Ling Qingyan was just about to ask the boatman what was wrong. She wanted to go to the cabin to ask the boatman about the situation.
The next moment, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in her sight.
Ling Qingyan's body stiffened.
She felt that the air pressure around her had dropped and the wind seemed to have stopped. Her heart, which had just been beating because of Ji Yanxing's gentle words of love, suddenly calmed down.
No, it cannot be said that he was calm, it should be said that he was scared to the point of stopping.
"Little niece, you're really interested?"
Her uncle, Prince Yong Lingyu, suddenly appeared on the boat she had prepared for Ji Yanxing, with a smile on his face.
But Ling Qingyan felt that the smile was particularly cold no matter how she looked at it.
