As soon as Chu Yunheng stepped in, he heard his father say, "Someone, close the door."
When the imperial guards outside the palace door heard this, they immediately closed the door.
Eliminate contact between the inside and outside of the palace.
Chu Yunheng was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he felt inexplicably panicked.
He thought to himself, what's there to be afraid of? Why would assassinating a mere piece of trash be worth my father's fuss?
Besides, my father has never liked this waste.
At that time, he can just find a reason to fool around. Anyway, the emperor won't investigate it carefully. Even if Prince Yun wants his father to investigate, his father will help him!
With this thought in mind, Chu Yunheng immediately calmed down a lot. He bowed respectfully and said, "I pay my respects to you, Father..."
“Kneel down!”
This loud shout made Chu Yunheng stunned on the spot. Before he could react, a powerful pressure came over him and he couldn't stand up straight.
'thump--'
Chu Yunheng's knees hit the ground heavily, and he almost fell forward. Fortunately, he supported himself on the ground with both hands, thus avoiding falling to the ground in an embarrassing situation.
"Chu Yunheng, do you know what big mistake you have made?" A familiar and majestic voice sounded above his head.
Chu Yunheng panicked. Was his father going to hold him responsible for this waste?
No, impossible!
Chu Yunheng looked up at Chu Chengyu, pretending to be calm, and shook his head, saying, "I don't know."
Yun Zheng saw this and curled her red lips slightly.
Chu Chengyu said in a deep voice, "The evidence is irrefutable, and you still want to deny that you sent your secret guard elder to kill Zheng'er? Tell the truth, and I may give you a lighter sentence. If you still refuse to change your ways, don't blame me, father, for being merciless."
When Chu Yunheng heard these words, his eyes rolled and he looked up at Chu Chengyu.
Chu Chengyu, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, stood with his hands behind his back. He looked extremely dignified and serious, with a hint of anger on his face, which made people feel intimidated.
Chu Yunheng panicked.
"Your son, your son..."
"You can't tell me? Or do you want me to send someone to take you to the dungeon for interrogation?"
"Father, I was just joking with Yun Zheng." Chu Yunheng glanced at Yun Zheng's calm expression, and an idea flashed in his mind, and he spoke without hesitation.
"Yes, I just heard that Yun Zheng had returned, so I sent someone to tease her. I have no ill intentions!"
Yun Zheng scoffed, "Oh? Didn't the Third Prince dislike me immensely in the past? Why did he send an old secret guard to play a joke on me the moment he heard I was back?"
Chu Yunheng could naturally hear the sarcasm in her words, but he didn't take it to heart, because the most important thing now was to get away with this matter in front of his father.
There are few fools who can become emperors, and Chu Chengyu is naturally no fool.
As soon as I heard it, I knew it was Chu Yunheng who was making up lies to fool me.
Chu Chengyu showed disappointment in his eyes and sighed in his heart.
"Zheng'er, I'll leave him to you to deal with. You can scold and beat him as much as you want." Just don't beat him to death.
Chu Yunheng's eyes widened when he heard this.
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
After she finished speaking, Yun Zheng slowly walked towards Chu Yunheng.
When Chu Yunheng saw the familiar smile on her delicate and beautiful little face, the humiliation he suffered in Prince Yun's Mansion that day emerged in his mind!
He was beaten by her and then thrown out of Prince Yun's Mansion.
Thinking about it now, it hurts.
"Your Majesty...I know I was wrong!" Chu Yunheng turned his head and looked at Chu Chengyu who had turned his back, and shouted in panic.
Chu Chengyu had no reaction.
She didn't even give him an expression or a glance.
'Click, click, click'
Yun Zheng clasped her hands together and made a gesture as if she was going to exercise.
Chu Yunheng's eyes widened with anger. "Don't come over here! Don't think that just because you have brute force, I will show you mercy!"
Yun Zheng raised her eyebrows when she heard that, then showed an extremely sweet smile. Under Chu Yunheng's shocked eyes, Yun Zheng turned to look at Chu Chengyu and complained.
"Your Majesty, the Third Prince said he wanted to beat me!"
Chu Chengyu said in a deep voice: "Chu Yunheng, if you dare to resist, I will strip you of your status as a prince, demote you to a commoner, and expel you from the Great Chu State."
"Father..." Chu Yunheng looked at his back in disbelief, his voice trembling.
He didn't want to become a commoner and become a laughing stock of the Chu State.
He clenched his hands, veins popping out on the back of his hands. Why...why would his father help a loser and not help him, when he was obviously his father's relative!
He doesn't understand!
He lowered his head, a deep hatred flashing in his eyes.
Seeing this, Yun Zheng frowned slightly. She finally realized that Chu Yunheng was Chu Chengyu's fate.
ungrateful.
The best among scumbags.
Yun Zheng's lips curled slightly, a hint of coldness flashed across her face. She clenched her fists and swung them at him, punching and kicking him, each punch hitting the flesh.
Although she did not use spiritual power, Yun Zheng's body and strength that could rival those of a spiritual beast were enough to give Chu Yunheng a hard time.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
“Ahhh…”
Eunuch Lin and others outside the palace vaguely heard the sound of fighting and the screams of the third prince. Since there was no summons from the emperor, they had no choice but to wait where they were.
Eunuch Lin frowned and remembered what Yun Zheng said when he was in the cold palace: I already know the truth.
Could it be that the one who wanted to assassinate Yun Zheng was... the Third Prince?!
This thought suddenly occurred to him, but instead of shocking him, he felt that it was indeed the case.
