“Snap—”
As the teacup in Murong Xue's hand shattered on the ground, Qian Ye Ze also sat down on the ground.
Xi Niang is not dead! She is indeed not dead!
"Do you think that if you paint Xiniang's teeth with poison, she will definitely succeed in committing suicide? Do you think that because she is your assassin, we have no way to make her speak?" Murong asked with a smile.
Her smile was beautiful, but in the eyes of Qian Ye Ze and Murong Xue, it was like a rose that had been poisoned, and anyone who came into contact with it would die.
"Fourth sister, tell me...if Dad knew that after you married Prince Rui, you betrayed the Marshal's Mansion and all of our sisters' affairs to Prince Rui, and even colluded with Prince Rui to commit such a heinous act, how would Dad punish you?"
"Sister!" Murong Xue screamed and knelt on the ground, her big eyes full of surprise and confusion.
She had never thought that Murong Xiao would dare to bring up the affairs of her sisters in front of Qian Yeming. It seemed that Murong Xiao had also betrayed the Marshal's Mansion.
Although she had an idea to threaten Murong Xiao with this, she didn't have the courage to confront this woman head-on unless it was absolutely necessary.
So she could only crawl to Murong Xiao's side and beg for mercy in fear: "Sister, I didn't know about this, I really didn't know! Since you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't tell father and the emperor about this before, you must have other plans.
"Big sister, Xue'er, please let us go. Your Highness Prince Rui and I will follow the lead of Your Highness the Crown Prince and Big sister from now on. If you say one thing, we will never say another."
Although Murong Xue is young, she is not a real rich lady after all. She is someone who struggled to crawl out from the pile of corpses. Her intelligence and survival ability are definitely not comparable to Qian Ye Ze, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
She knew that if the assassination of the crown prince and the blaming of King Li were confirmed, Qian Ye Ze would not be able to become the crown prince, and it would be hard to say whether a prince of such low status as him could even save his life.
As for her, even if the emperor did not execute her, once Murong Qingyu knew that she and Qian Ye Ze had joined forces to destroy the Crown Prince's ascension to the throne, she would never be able to get the antidote again.
If she doesn't find the medicine, she would rather die.
Seeing Murong Xue admit her mistake faster than him, Qian Ye Ze was slightly stunned, and then immediately followed Murong Xue's example.
Although he still felt regretful, compared with saving his life, for a prince like him who was born far away from the throne, the throne was definitely not as important as saving his life.
Qian Ye Ze sat up from the ground and knelt in front of Qian Ye Ming. "Royal brother, I was wrong, I was really wrong! I was confused for a moment, so I did such a damnable thing. I beg you to forgive me for the good relationship we have had since childhood! Royal brother, as long as you can let me go, your orders from now on will be the imperial decree."
Thinking about how Qian Yeming had not handed over Xiniang until now and instead pushed the blame on Qian Yeyao, he knew very well what Qian Yeming was going to do.
"Royal brother, as long as you can forgive me this time, I will be yours from now on. You can use this opportunity to bring down Big Brother, right?"
Qian Yeming took the teapot and poured tea into Murong Xiao's cup again. He then said, "If it weren't for my good relationship with you, I would have handed the bridesmaid over to the clan office on the second day of the wedding."
"Thank you, brother! Thank you, brother!"
Qian Yeming's words clearly meant that he was going to let him go. Confirming that he had saved his life, Qian Ye Ze kowtowed hard to express his gratitude.
