Chapter 166 No Beloved Woman
A man was carried in by the guards of Prince Jun's Mansion and thrown to the ground.
His arms and legs were bent in a weird way.
From Fu Zhaoning's professional point of view, his hands and feet should have been broken alive.
When An Qing saw his appearance clearly, his face changed and he shrank subconsciously.
Fu Zhaoning held her hand.
"Don't be afraid."
That's right, she also recognized him. This man was the one who wanted to attack An Qing on Chaoyun Mountain that day, the guy with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks.
At that time, Xiao Lanyuan just picked him up and left him. She thought that no one would care about his life or death later, but she didn't expect that Xiao Lanyuan still had someone bring him back.
"Brother, it's him, it's definitely him..." An Qing said to An Nian.
An Nian's expression changed and he looked at Xiao Lanyuan.
"He was the one who drugged him," Xiao Lanyuan had already had someone interrogate him, "but he didn't confess Yi Hai. I have had people investigate and found out that this man is the illegitimate child of the Duan family. The Duan family originally didn't acknowledge him and wouldn't let him go back. He hooked up with Yi Hai, so the Duan family took him back."
"He knew that if he betrayed Yi Hai, he would not be able to survive, so he took on all the responsibilities himself."
"Yi Hai has never personally touched Mi Xin, nor did he mention Mi Xin. He just told this person that he wanted to get An Qing."
Xiao Lanyuan had already asked about everything clearly, and he didn't care whether An Qing could bear it or not when he told it now. She was not his sister, and nothing really happened to her. He didn't have the habit of pampering other women.
"This guy came up with the idea. He also asked someone to buy the drug. He also asked someone to trick An Qing. He personally gave An Qing the drug. He didn't even tell Yi Hai about the whole process. He just told Yi Hai to go to a certain place and time."
An Nian understood after hearing what Xiao Lanyuan said.
"So, there is no way for us to settle accounts with Yi Hai?" He gritted his teeth.
"At least, there is not enough evidence to convict him before the emperor and the government." Xiao Lanyuan said calmly.
Moreover, he had no intention of fully intervening in the An family's affairs.
An Nian also knew that the emperor and the empress had always supported Yi Hai. With the emperor's protection, if there was no evidence to nail Yi Hai, there would be nothing they could do to him.
He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger and murderous intent.
At this moment, he also took his anger out on the emperor.
If the emperor hadn't been protecting Yi Hai mindlessly, would Yi Hai be so lawless now?
Is such an emperor really worthy of his loyalty?
"I see."
"So you can only punish this man." Xiao Lanyuan has always liked An Nian's cleverness.
If someone didn't know what was going on, he would probably beg him to help An Qing deal with Yi Hai.
An Nian could hold himself back.
"Duan Zhong." An Nian called out the young man's name through gritted teeth.
This person has been following Yi Hai, so he knows him.
"But he will tell everyone that he really gave me the medicine, and I..." An Qing was shaking all over.
As long as people outside knew that she was really drugged, and everyone believed that the drug could only be neutralized by a man, then her innocence would be gone.
No one would believe that nothing happened to her.
"Yi Hai must have had this in mind, so even though he knew Duan Zhong was in my hands, he wasn't nervous or worried."
Xiao Lanyuan continued, "I will hand Duan Zhong over to you. If you take his life without permission, Yi Hai will bite you back immediately. If you kill Duan Zhong, the Duan family will bite your An family like crazy even if it's just to please Yi Hai."
An Nian clenched his fists tightly.
How could he not know?
The emperor was already not very happy with him, because he was always the one who pointed out the mistakes of the court, which was equivalent to always slapping the emperor in the face.
The emperor would probably be happy to take this opportunity to demote or kill him.
"And if you don't deal with Duan Zhong and hand him over to the government, the fact that An Qing was drugged will be a foregone conclusion and can no longer be concealed." Xiao Lanyuan explained the matter to them.
He believed that An Nian would be able to figure it out even without him saying anything.
It is very likely that the emperor condoned this matter behind the scenes.
The emperor has become more and more suspicious in recent years. He would not like a minister like An Nian who is not very obedient.
An Qing's tears welled up.
"Princess..." An Nian looked at Fu Zhaoning, "Then I'll have to ask the princess to come forward and prove that the confusion can be solved."
Fu Zhaoning nodded.
"Can."
Of course she was happy to prove the innocence of a little girl like An Qing.
She couldn't bear to see a scum like Yi Hai succeed.
Look, she is so nice to outsiders and agrees to anything.
Xiao Lanyuan looked at Fu Zhaoning and said, "Do you think others will believe you once you say it?"
The An brothers and sisters were also stunned.
Fu Zhaoning looked cunning and smiled with pursed lips.
"Isn't it easy to convince others? Just follow your plan and leave the proof that the confusion can be solved to me."
She patted her chest.
Seeing her action, Xiao Lanyuan couldn't help coughing again.
After the An brothers and sisters left, Fu Zhaoning also prepared to leave.
She didn't even want to talk to Xiao Lanyuan.
But before he took two steps, Xiao Lanyuan coughed violently.
"Princess, please show it to the prince." Qing Yi also quickly called her.
Fu Zhaoning couldn't take a step forward. After standing there for a while, he could only turn around and stare at Xiao Lanyuan.
"I was wondering if your cough is caused by sadness?"
“Ahem, why should I be, ahem, sad?” Xiao Lanyuan didn’t understand.
"Because Miss An doesn't want to enter Prince Jun's mansion and be your concubine!"
Fu Zhaoning still walked up to him, grabbed his hand a little roughly, and took his pulse.
It was cold again. He was cold again.
Too exhausted to complain.
Xiao Lanyuan wanted to hit her on the head.
"How can this prince, with his broken body, have three wives and four concubines?"
"Oh, that's indeed a bit difficult. Even you, a single wife, can't do it." Fu Zhaoning responded casually.
Qing Yi's mouth twitched and he quickly retreated.
Is this something he can hear?
Oh my god, what is the princess talking about?
After Fu Zhaoning said this, he realized what was happening and quickly shut his mouth.
Xiao Lanyuan took off his mask and his face turned dark.
"I can still do what I should do!"
Are you doubting him?
How could he not know his own body?
"Haha, haha." Fu Zhaoning laughed dryly a few times, a little embarrassed.
"Don't even think about getting a divorce." Xiao Lanyuan's face darkened again when he thought of her rushing to push him out and give up the position of Princess Jun. "Before Fu Lin comes back, just stay as Princess Jun!"
"Xiao Lanyuan, don't you think that you are killing three thousand enemies and injuring eight hundred of your own? If you tie me up to death, you won't be able to marry your beloved girl as your principal wife."
"I don't have a beloved girl, so you don't have to worry about this issue." Xiao Lanyuan said gritting his teeth.
