Qing Wu took advantage of Xiao Chenyan's "inability to hear" and mentally counted Xiao Chenyan's "crimes" from his youth to the present with the judge's pen.
The charges were fabricated, the facts were false, and the case was based on injustice.
If Xiao Chenyan wasn't the person involved, he would have echoed the words "This boy is extremely evil and should be torn to pieces by a chariot"!
The atmosphere was weird, fortunately Prince Hui did not "speak nonsense" again, which would have added flaws to Xiao Chenyan's already imperfect youth.
"Ah Yan, please give me a definite answer as to what Fourth Uncle should do next, otherwise I will be very nervous."
Prince Hui looked at Xiao Chenyan pitifully, with lingering fear in his heart. He looked around, fearing that another "Witch Clan" would appear to take his body away: "Will there be another Witch Clan trying to murder me in the future?"
"The Wu Clan may not attack you again, but I can't say for sure about the one in the palace."
Prince Hui's face turned pale and his mouth tasted bitter.
Yes, which witch tribe made a move again? Now that he knows the truth, won’t his father kill him immediately to silence him?
Prince Hui was so angry that he wanted to receive the secret decree from the old emperor. Well, the so-called "test" was to let him offer himself to be a puppet of the witch clan, right?
Is this something a father could do?
"Uncle, take a rest for half a day. I'll come over later." Xiao Chenyan said nothing, but his tone was strangely gentle: "I think Uncle hasn't eaten much in the past few days. He can eat more in the future to keep his body healthy."
Prince Hui: "... Ah Yan, what are you saying? Why do I feel like you are also greedy for my body... Ouch!"
Princess Hui couldn't help but pinched the fat on Prince Hui's waist again.
She smiled at Xiao Chenyan and said, "Don't worry, Prince Yan. I will make sure your fourth uncle eats well and drinks well and takes good care of his health."
Xiao Chenyan nodded, gave a few more instructions, and then stood up. A wisp of black air emerged from the shadow under his feet and quickly penetrated into the shadow of Prince Hui and his wife.
Qing Wu and Ye You glanced at each other and said nothing.
The moment they stepped out of the house, Qing Wu and Xiao Chenyan's appearance changed to the same way they came in, and the two ghosts and one man left alone.
All of a sudden, all the strength in Prince Hui's body seemed to be drained away. He fell to the ground, gasping for breath.
Princess Hui also seemed to have lost all her strength. She leaned against the edge of the door, her hands covering her heart, and felt that the road ahead was pitch black.
Suddenly, Prince Hui jumped up like a carp and rushed out.
"Your Highness! Xiao Si!" Princess Hui was horrified and quickly grabbed him: "What are you doing? Have you forgotten Prince Yan's instructions?"
Prince Hui gnashed his teeth and said, "I'm going to burn that secret decree! If I keep it for even a moment longer, it will curse me to have a short life!"
Princess Hui breathed a sigh of relief, but she also felt anxious when she thought of the secret decree.
"Burn it! I'll check the accounts later, but we'll burn all the money the palace has given us."
"Yes, yes, yes." Prince Hui nodded repeatedly: "Who knows if there is any dirty thing hidden to harm me, my father... Bah! That old man is so evil!"
After the prince finished scolding, he suddenly looked at the princess of Hui and said, "Today I know that the princess can actually hit people."
Princess Hui's body stiffened for a moment, thinking about the slaps she had given Prince Hui before. Just as she was about to cover it up, a fat hand hugged her waist and the man's pig head nestled on her shoulder.
Prince Hui: "Princess, it's good to fight. In the past, I was blind and didn't recognize a virtuous wife. Now that I have the princess by my side, I feel at ease."
"Alas, they say that husband and wife are birds of a feather, but they fly away separately when disaster strikes. In times of crisis, only the princess stayed with me and never abandoned me. After this disaster is over, I will definitely dismiss my concubines and only live with the princess until old age..."
Princess Hui's face changed drastically: "No! Absolutely not!"
Prince Hui: "Alas, the princess is too virtuous, but I am determined."
Princess Hui: Don’t make up your mind! I don’t want to fly? I can’t fly!
You also sent away your concubines and grew old with me... Your Majesty, you are not a playboy, you are a dead pig seeking revenge!
…
After leaving Prince Hui's Mansion, Ye You slipped away by himself. He used the excuse of going to buy something to make up for the loss of Huo Hongying's yang energy caused by him, but in fact he didn't want to stay and get hurt by mistake.
Xiao Chenyan and Qing Wu did not go directly to the palace, but went to a house in the south of the city.
Most of the houses in the south of the city are for ordinary people. Living next to this two-story house are the brother and sister Meng Huaiyu and Meng Huaijin.
The brother and sister were picked up from Qiongxi Tower by Xiao Chenyan, who had sent people to pick them up and settled them here.
Qing Wu listened to the noise on the other side of the wall for a while and found that there seemed to be other people living in the house where the Meng siblings lived. Judging from the voices and conversation, they seemed to be an old couple.
Qing Wu looked at Xiao Chenyan and asked puzzledly: "Why did you bring me here?"
Xiao Chenyan was standing under a crooked peach tree in the courtyard, motioning her to come over. Qing Wu walked forward, looked at the peach tree, and raised her eyebrows: "What? Is there a treasure hidden under this peach tree?"
"It's not a treasure, but I had a friend when I was young who particularly liked to eat the fruits from this peach tree."
Qing Wu blinked and thought of the past.
For a few years, every autumn Xiao Chenyan would send her a number of ugly peaches. Although the peaches were ugly, each one was juicy, sweet and sticky.
She was young at that time, and Xiao Chenyan fooled her by saying that those peaches were the peaches he stole from heaven for her, and that she would grow into a fairy if she ate them.
Every time this happened, her brother Yun Zheng would nod by and help Xiao Chenyan to fool her.
Qing Wu's expression kept changing. She stared at Xiao Chenyan dangerously and snorted coldly.
Xiao Yantai, Xiao Yantai, how many surprises do you have that I don’t know about?
She didn't remember all the "old grudges" from her childhood, but now... it was so good that he could always help her remember them.
But when she was a child, she was really fooled by him. When she heard that he went to heaven to steal peaches for her, she was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears, and she kept saying "Brother Yantai, you are so kind~".
Qing Wu gritted her teeth and said, "I counted with my fingers. This peach tree is full of resentment and is stained with sin. It bears peaches every year, but someone takes it and produces only bad fruits without doing anything else."
Xiao Chenyan stood under the peach tree, looking at her with a bright smile. For a moment, the years blurred and Qing Wu seemed to see the young man in bright clothes and riding a fierce horse back then.
She was flicked on the forehead, and she was furious, but she heard him say:
"The elder who took care of the Meng family siblings across the street now lives in this house, and they have always taken care of this peach tree."
"so what?"
Qing Wu stared at him dangerously. If Xiao Chenyan didn't tell her the truth, she would really kill her husband with her own hands.
"That old man had no children, but he made a living by selling vegetables and fruits. In his early years, he was unable to dodge and got in the way of a group of dandies on horseback parading in the capital, and he almost lost his life."
Qing Wu's beautiful eyes flashed, and she became curious: "And then?"
Xiao Chenyan stretched out his hand towards her. She hesitated for a moment, then moved over. As soon as she got close, he grabbed her slender waist. She felt a force coming from her waist, and she was lifted up and sat high up on the crooked peach tree.
She uttered a cry and lowered her head to meet his bright, smiling eyes.
He looked up at her sitting high up, his hands covering both sides of the tree trunk where she was sitting, and said slowly:
"And then of course there was an even bigger dandy above the dandy. Another dandy couldn't stand these guys, and he found out that they liked to hang out in brothels, so he dragged his friends into it, and went to the brothel with his relatives under the pretext of meeting them."
How could Qing Wu not understand what he said? Why did he go around in such a long circle to explain to her what happened in the brothel?
She stood still, her eyes looking around disdainfully. Although the crooked peach tree was thick, it was not tall. She sat between the hollows of the trunk, with her knees just against his chest.
She gently pushed her knees forward, motioning for him to continue.
Xiao Chenyan looked up at him with a smile: "That night, while the group of people were drunk, Yun Zheng and I sneaked into their house with our faces covered and did some light warfare."
"Little ring?" Qing Wu laughed out loud, but the moment she laughed, she felt that she had lost her dignity and immediately put on a stern face: "I don't believe it, tell me more."
Xiao Chenyan looked at her helplessly and said, "So I just let those playboys lie in bed for four months."
Qing Wu narrowed her eyes, suddenly thought of something, and touched her chin.
She remembered that one year when she was a child, her eldest brother seemed to have done something bad and was chased around the yard by her father and beaten on the head.
She even asked Sister Ying to take her to the roof to watch the fun.
"Not only that, did you also strip her naked and throw her on the street?"
Xiao Chenyan raised his eyebrows. I guess you also remember what happened?
Then why are you still trying to put the blame on him in your mind?
Xiao Chenyan: "That's Yun Zheng's."
The first thing Qing Wu wanted to do was to speak up for her elder brother.
Bullshit~ Although her elder brother Yun Zheng is not a decent and polite person, when it comes to being immoral, who can compare to you back then?
Qing Wu held back the words, and only snorted, "You are relying on Young General Yun's insignificance to throw the blame on him. Everyone knows that you..."
"What happened to me back then?"
Xiao Chenyan suddenly took a step forward, like a powerful invading sword. Qing Wu's knees were pressed against his chest and were separated by him. Although she was in a superior position, she was firmly trapped by his breath.
He clasped his hands together and placed them on her waist. "Why don't you say anything?"
Qing Wu was stared at by him and said unhappily: "Anyway, you won't learn anything! Look at how frivolous and reckless you are now. You are a real pervert. You must have learned a lot when you went to the brothel!"
He looked at her fierce appearance but weak heart, a hint of mischief flashed in his eyes, and he pretended to be serious and pondered:
"Well, I did learn one thing."
"What?"
Qing Wu followed his eye signal and bent down suspiciously.
His hand suddenly pressed on the back of her head, and a warm kiss fell on her forehead.
Qing Wu froze, her beautiful eyes wide open, meeting those deep eyes.
His eyes were fixed on her lips, not hiding his desire or intention, like scorching fireworks.
"I learned such a bad thing."
He looked at her and said softly, "Princess, please forgive me for my poor skills."
