Xie Jinyao remembered that in her previous life, Su Luoqing drugged the Prince of Yun and slept with him.
The Prince of Yun was annoyed by her scheming and lack of self-respect, and wanted to punish her. It was only after the Empress pleaded for Su Luoqing that the Prince of Yun took her as a concubine.
However, Su Luoqing's reputation was ruined as a result, and she never left the Yunwang Mansion until Xie Jinyao died.
The old imperial physician, Su, was so angered by his granddaughter that he died that very night.
According to the timeline of the previous life, this happened after Ye Zhen's reputation was ruined, which means that at this time in the previous life, Su Luoqing had already climbed into his bed.
There was absolutely no such thing as Su Luoqing announcing the engagement.
It seems that Ye Zhen's rebirth changed Su Luoqing's fate.
Xie Jinyao only realized that Li Heng wanted Su Luoqing to marry into the Li family, so she didn't mention Su Luoqing's past life in the Yunwang Mansion.
It's not convenient to say more.
And then there's Cui Yihuan, who, despite dying long ago at this point in her previous life, is still alive and well.
She heard that Su Yanwan had been beaten today. Others might not know, but she could guess what was going on. Cui Yihuan and Crown Prince Ye Zhen lived under the same roof, so they must have known about their affair. She beat Su Yanwan on Ye Zhen's behalf.
It's unclear what kind of spell Ye Zhen has cast on him to protect her like this.
But how could the Crown Prince be with Su Yanwan?
In his past life, he was madly in love with Ye Zhen and would do anything to avenge her.
In this life, he also defended Ye Zhen many times... However, he had never heard of anything between the two. On the contrary, he heard that when the Crown Prince impersonated Prince Xie, he reprimanded her in front of the Prince of Liang and the princes, telling her to be reserved and respectful of the rules.
Could it be that Ye Zhen's rebirth has changed even this?
However, her predictions have been different from those of her previous life. If even this has changed, the Prime Minister might start to doubt her.
Xie Jinyao thought for a moment and said, "Prime Minister, there's something fishy about the Crown Prince and Su Yanwan's affair."
She decided to make up a story: "When I was at the Marquis's residence, I witnessed the two of them having a secret rendezvous in the middle of the night. At the manor, the Crown Prince did not hesitate to whip my mother to protect Ye Zhen and brought up Madam Wang."
To avenge Ye Zhen, he even stormed the General's Mansion and beat the Ye couple half to death. Some time ago, the Crown Prince personally escorted Helian Qing to the Marquis's Mansion every day. I suspect he was using Helian Qing as a cover to facilitate his secret rendezvous with Ye Zhen.
"How could the Crown Prince have fallen for someone else in just a few days? There must be some conspiracy involved."
In any case, it can't be that her prediction was inaccurate; it's that the Crown Prince and Ye Zhen are plotting something again.
It has to be said that this time she was just lucky; she guessed right.
When Li Heng learned that the Crown Prince liked Ye Zhen, he had his daughter-in-law, Madam Su, tell her family about it. Su Yanwan and her brother were going to test whether the Crown Prince and Ye Zhen were truly in love.
After hearing Xie Jinyao's words, he thought of a possibility.
Xie Tingzhou's affection for Su Yanwan was feigned, but why did he do it?
Given Ye Zhen's status as a widow, she feared the Emperor and Empress might not approve of her.
But this is not a long-term solution.
The Emperor and Empress are still young, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, they should live for another twenty years without any problem. Xie Tingzhou can't just pretend to live for twenty years.
Could it be that he knew Su Yanwan was testing him and decided to play along?
How did they know he was acting so discreetly?
Li Heng rejected both possibilities. He narrowed his eyes and thought for a long time before suddenly asking, "You said earlier that according to Ye Zhen's fate, she was a dead person. So how did she die?"
Xie Jinyao was stunned for a moment. What should she say?
It is said that Ye Zhen was tricked by his mother and brother, and later imprisoned in a dilapidated Taoist temple, where he was tortured to death.
Going into too much detail would arouse the Prime Minister's suspicion.
Just as she was choosing her words, she heard Li Heng's gloomy voice say, "Tell the truth."
Xie Jinyao was still too naive in front of him; he didn't believe in any so-called predictions.
If one truly possessed the ability to predict the future, they wouldn't have been so easily manipulated by Ye Zhen.
After much thought and observation of Xie Jinyao over the past few days, he suspected that Xie Jinyao had memories of her past life, which was why she could repeatedly predict things, only the course of events had changed.
“I know you have secrets. Now that you are my person, I will protect you, but you cannot be completely useless.”
Xie Jinyao had previously said that the young master Xie had died long ago and that the body in the coffin was not the young master Xie. However, when his men looked at it, although the face was blurry and unrecognizable, they could still vaguely make out the outline of the young master Xie.
He assumed that the Crown Prince had special means to obtain a corpse that resembled Prince Xie.
She said that Xie Tingzhou and Ye Zhen were in love, but today Xie Tingzhou was with Su Yanwan.
Li Heng wasn't disbelieving Xie Jinyao's words; he could tell whether Xie Jinyao was lying to him.
He was worried that Xie Jinyao wasn't smart enough and would expose herself, only to be outmaneuvered, which would implicate him.
Xie Jinyao met his all-seeing eyes and looked away.
She was afraid that Li Heng would discard her like trash after he had used her.
Li Heng saw her worry and pinched her chin, saying, "Those who know my secret, if they cannot be of one mind with me, will only have one path: the Yellow Springs."
“I said.”
Xie Jinyao was scared.
She wanted the path to imperial power, not to the underworld. Li Heng had already seen through her, and hiding it any longer would only lose her his heart.
"After being framed by my mother and the Ye family, Ye Zhen was disgraced and imprisoned in a dilapidated Taoist temple outside the city for several years, where he was tortured to death."
She had barely breathed her last when the Crown Prince arrived, killed my brother on the spot, and then beat Ye Wantang and the man who had bullied her half to death.
But in this life, Ye Zhen didn't get into trouble at the manor. Instead, my brother died, and my mother and the others were taken revenge on by her.
Therefore, I suspect Ye Zhen has been reborn, but rest assured, Ye Zhen was imprisoned in her previous life and was completely unaware of what would happen in the future.
Despite the speculation, Li Heng was still shocked to hear her say that.
After a moment of digestion, he asked, "Who is the man who bullied Ye Zhen?"
Xie Jinyao shook her head. "I don't know. I heard that the person was wearing a fox mask, but Xie Tingzhou took the two of them to the palace gate."
When the emperor was seriously ill, the empress personally went to the palace gate to see him and ordered two people to be executed at the palace gate.
Even in death, the masked man never removed his mask. Everyone was guessing who he was, and later I was also the target of Xie Tingzhou's revenge.
She had no idea what happened next.
Li Heng's eyes darkened.
Ye Zhen was reborn, so she took revenge on all those who harmed her, except for the masked man, since she didn't know who the masked man was.
If she and the Crown Prince are in love, will she also tell the Crown Prince about this?
Could the Crown Prince's approach to Su Yanwan be related to the masked man?
Li Heng prided himself on being smart, but this time he genuinely couldn't figure out the intricacies of the situation.
He then asked Xie Jinyao, "What became of the Yun brothers?"
"Prince Ning is dead. He fell from his horse while training a wild horse and broke his neck. Prince Yun was assassinated while out and about and broke his leg. Rumors are circulating that they were all killed by the Crown Prince..."
She then recounted the fates of Su Luoqing, Cui Yihuan, and others from her previous life.
Li Heng frowned.
The emperor was seriously ill, and his two sons were either dead or crippled, which was exactly what he wanted to do.
His original intention was to have the Li family's daughter replace Su Luoqing as the female physician and make a move on the Emperor and Empress, but in his previous life, Su Luoqing was intercepted by the Prince of Yun.
Then his plan would be difficult to carry out. Was the emperor and the others' fate his own doing?
Li Heng was unsure, so he asked, "What was the situation at that time?"
