Qiao Zimo naturally knew why he reacted so strongly. The two families had been in such a mess before, and there was no affection between them at all. Everyone thought that Ye Heng was dead this time, but who could have thought that he actually saved his life!
"I heard that the Dali Temple did not find direct evidence to prove that he was involved in the murder of Master Ye Zheng, so, so..."
Ye Yunfeng clenched his fists tightly, veins on his forehead throbbing: "How can it have nothing to do with him! Obviously--"
It's obvious that my sister had been eyeing him before she returned to Beijing!
Given my sister's personality, she would never do this unless she was absolutely sure!
But now——he was just handling it with such care! ?
Ye Yunfeng swallowed the rest of the sentence, his chest seemed to be surging with waves that could not be calmed down.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Even so, the gold and silver treasures found in his house are enough to sentence him to death!"
Ye Heng was promoted to the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple in just three years. It is easy to imagine that there was a lot of official manipulation involved. Once investigated, it would be difficult to prove his guilt!
No matter how you look at it, the penalty now is too light!
Qiao Zimo was so shocked that he looked around quickly and held Ye Yunfeng's shoulders tightly: "Keep your voice down! If others hear these words, you will definitely be in trouble!"
If he made such public remarks and let someone with ulterior motives know, he would probably be accused of being disrespectful!
Ye Yunfeng's teeth were grinding. If he hadn't remembered his elder sister's instructions, he would have made a scene by now!
Ye Jingyan was much calmer. After hearing the result, apart from the initial shock, he no longer noticed anything unusual.
He pondered for a moment, then asked calmly, "Ah Feng is right. Regardless of what happened back then, even if he was charged with other crimes, the result shouldn't be like this... Did anyone speak up for him?"
Qiao Zimo looked at Ye Jingyan with admiration, thinking that he was worthy of being the most admired student of the Lord Jijiu, as he had guessed the trick so quickly.
"I heard that, too." Qiao Zimo lowered his voice, "It seems that... the Prime Minister has come forward."
Both of them were shocked.
Ye Yunfeng thought he had heard wrongly: "The Prime Minister of the Cabinet? Jiang Zhaoyuan!?"
He had just thought of many possibilities, but he could never have imagined that it was this person who helped Ye Heng!
Although Ye Heng has been very successful in his career in recent years, I have no impression that he has any dealings with the Jiang family. How could that person -
Qiao Zimo patted his arm: "Don't forget who Ye Heng belongs to!"
Ye Yunfeng was stunned.
Ye Jingyan narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a light tone: "That person is really loyal and righteous."
Ye Yunfeng came to his senses instantly—the Second Prince!
Ye Heng's incident this time caused such a big stir that ordinary officials did not dare to intervene, for fear that they would be implicated by accident.
But privately, many people knew that he was the second prince's man.
If the Second Prince stands idly by this time, it will inevitably disappoint those who follow him, so as long as Ye Heng is saved, he can take the opportunity to gain reputation for himself!
But Ye Yunfeng still couldn't figure it out.
"A mere fourth-grade rank is actually worth all his efforts?"
Even the Prime Minister was invited!
Ye Jingyan lowered his eyelids slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Qiao Zimo said mysteriously: "You don't know this. The Prime Minister is not just trying to save his life this time. More importantly, it seems that General Huo from that year is also involved!"
