At this moment, he was at the entrance of Changhe Palace, holding He Yunxiao hostage. He looked like he was saying: "It's too dark to see his face clearly, so I didn't recognize He Yunxiao. I'll just assume he's an assassin and can't let him go. I have to tie him up and gag him so he can't speak. This is perfectly reasonable and just a matter of official business, and it doesn't involve any personal grudges."
Where is Chunfeng Tower? I, Yang Zhe, have never been there.
The commander of the Imperial Guards personally escorted He Yunxiao.
Yang Zhe: "Don't move. This rope is specially made; the more you move, the tighter it gets. You have some nerve, daring to assassinate Princess Xiaoyue in the dead of night. You simply don't respect me, Yang Zhe. Today, you've fallen into my hands, and it's no wonder you're only a ninth-rank cultivator. Still moving? Still not convinced? Fine, if you have any grievances, speak them out today, and I, the commander, will stand up for you."
Yang Zhe stuffed cloth into He Yunxiao's mouth.
"Waaaaah."
You fucking bastard, get the cloth out of my mouth!
Yang Zhe patted He Yunxiao on the shoulder, "Good lad, not going to talk? Tough guy!"
He Yunxiao: "Waaaaah!"
Yang Zhe, you bastard, are you using your position to settle personal scores?! You just wait!
Jian Ling walked out of Changhe Palace with his sword in hand.
Upon seeing Jian Ling, Yang Zhe immediately became much more attentive.
Jian Ling can be considered Meng Qingqian's most trusted confidant and most capable assistant. If one can build a good relationship with her, winning Meng Qingqian's heart will be much easier.
“Miss Jianling, I have captured the assassin for His Highness. Is His Highness alright?” Yang Zhe asked.
"It's nothing."
"Oh. Well..."
Before Yang Zhe could finish speaking, Jian Ling immediately recognized He Yunxiao.
"I want to take him with me."
"Please feel free to do as you please, young lady. Yang Zhe will certainly do his utmost to assist Princess Xiaoyue. It would be our honor to devote ourselves wholeheartedly to Your Highness. We hope that you will..."
Yang Zhe said a lot, and Jian Ling said, "I'm not good with words, please forgive me."
"It's alright, it's alright. The truth is the most touching thing. If His Highness asks me, you just need to tell me the truth."
Jian Ling thought about it; it seemed that Meng Qingqian never asked.
"Yes. She asked, and I answered."
Yang Zhe repeatedly clasped his hands in thanks, saying, "Thank you! Thank you!"
He Yunxiao: "Waaaaaah!"
Yang Zhe, you just wait! You little villain dares to covet the female lead, huh? I'll see how you die then.
