Chapter 72 Cut it off and feed it to the dogs



After Emperor Tianqi left, Xie Sheng and Yue He both stood up straight.

They looked at Yun Chuwei and Xie Xuan, their eyes filled with complex emotions.

“Your Highness, even if you scheme and plot, so what? I can still protect my son!” Yue He said.

Xie Xuan's expression was cold: "I'm afraid that in the end you will not only lose your son, but you will also lose yourself!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Chuwei smiled and said, "There's even a possibility that the whole family could be implicated!"

Yue He frowned unhappily and said, "We'll see!"

After saying that, he bowed to Xie Sheng and turned to leave.

Xie Sheng found it particularly jarring to see Yun Chuwei and Xie Xuan standing side by side.

The sight of the two of them singing and laughing together really stung him.

"You fickle woman!" Xie Sheng cursed, then turned and left.

Yun Zheng was furious: "Is this guy crazy? Don't think I won't scold him just because he's the crown prince!"

Xu Sheng nodded, "He looks terminally ill! But he is indeed the Crown Prince, so we really don't dare to scold him!"

Yun Zheng: ...

He was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.

Seeing this, Yun Chuwei smiled and said, "Since you know he's quite ill, don't bother with him."

Regardless of whether Xie Sheng is sick or not, she will make him pay the price he deserves.

However, this matter cannot be rushed.

After Yun Chuwei finished speaking, she turned her head and found that Xie Xuan's eyes were fixed on the direction Xie Sheng had left.

She felt she had seen the coldness and bloodlust in his eyes somewhere before.

She almost instinctively called out, "Xie Xuan."

The moment Xie Xuan withdrew his gaze, his expression changed.

Yun Chuwei wondered if it was just her imagination, but she actually saw a hint of tenderness in Xie Xuan's deep eyes.

She asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Xie Xuan shook his head: "It's nothing."

He couldn't very well tell Yun Chuwei that, just a moment ago, he wanted to cut off Xie Sheng's tongue and feed it to the dogs!

Or rather, he is now considering the feasibility of this plan!

Seeing that he was unwilling to talk more, Yun Chuwei changed the subject: "What do you think about the person wearing the Yama mask? Can Yue He find him?"

She wondered if Xie Xuan might be the man wearing the mask of Yama.

But she also felt it was impossible.

In her previous life, when she met the man wearing the Yama mask, Xie Xuan had already been dead for a long time.

Xie Xuan could not become the person wearing the mask after death.

However, Yun Chuwei wondered if Xie Xuan had any connection with the person wearing the Yama mask. After all, she had lost track of the person wearing the Yama mask before encountering Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan lowered his head, listening to Yun Chuwei's words, seemingly lost in thought.

Just when Yun Chuwei thought Xie Xuan wouldn't answer, Xie Xuan finally spoke up: "Yue He can't find it!"

Xie Xuan's voice was soft and pleasant, giving people a sense of inexplicable credibility.

Yun Chuwei nodded: "It's best if Yue He can't be found!"

The certainty in Xie Xuan's words gave Yun Chuwei an idea.

She still felt that Xie Xuan was connected to the person wearing the Yama mask.

Xie Xuan looked at Yun Chuwei, some doubts in his mind, so he asked directly, "You don't want that person to be found? Why?"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "If Yue He finds the person, wouldn't that be letting him have his way?"

Xie Xuan couldn't quite describe his feelings. He remained silent for a long time before asking Yun Chuwei, "Just because of this?"

Yun Chuwei countered, "Otherwise what? What else could it be?"

She found Xie Xuan's question a bit strange.

Xie Xuan lowered his head: "It's nothing, just asking casually."

Yun Zheng sensed that the atmosphere between the two was a bit strange and didn't dare to speak.

Xu Sheng, who was standing to the side, tried to speak up: "Should we also send people to find that person? If we find him, we can hide him first, and after Yue Jingsheng is executed, we can hand him over to His Majesty for disposal!"

Xu Sheng already felt ashamed that the cases of the three women hadn't resulted in Yue Jingsheng paying with his life.

If Yue Jingsheng is still not brought to justice this time, Xu Sheng will not rest in peace even if he dies.

Yun Chuwei did not offer any opinion; she simply said, "I can't say for sure about this matter either. Why don't you listen to His Highness Prince Xuan?"

As Yun Chuwei spoke, she kept staring at Xie Xuan.

She was curious to see what Xie Xuan would say!

Xu Sheng now listens to Yun Chuwei very much; he does whatever she asks him to do.

So he turned to Xie Xuan and asked, "Your Highness, what do you think?"

Xie Xuan shook his head: "No need. Even if you go looking, you won't find it, so there's no need to waste your time!"

Xu Sheng wanted to say something more, but remembering that Yun Chuwei had told him to listen to Xie Xuan, he finally fell silent.

Yun Chuwei looked at Xie Xuan, her doubts growing even stronger.

Xie Xuan was so certain because he knew where the person wearing the Yama mask was.

He seemed quite confident that the person wouldn't be found.

What is his relationship with the man wearing the Yama mask? And what is his relationship with those masked warriors?

At this moment, Xie Xuan spoke up, "If the people outside knew that you had come out of the Marquis's residence, they might cause a huge commotion. Let me take you back!"

Yun Chuwei had no objection: "Alright!"

-

Although they were very careful on their way back, the people still managed to discover Yun Chuwei and her group's whereabouts.

Just as their carriage approached the Marquis's residence, someone shouted, "Yun Chuwei and Yun Zheng are here! Stop them quickly!"

So the people immediately rushed over and stopped them.

Xie Xuan frowned and asked the guards driving the carriage what was going on.

The guard said, "It seems someone has taken up a high vantage point, watching all the carriages approaching the Marquis's residence, and then using arrows to point the way to the people on the ground!"

Xie Xuan gritted her teeth slightly and uttered two words: "Xie Sheng!"

Yun Chuwei reached out and patted Xie Xuan's hand reassuringly, saying slowly, "Some things are bound to happen, it's just a matter of whether it happens today or tomorrow! I think it's better if it happens today than tomorrow!"

Xie Xuan looked at Yun Chuwei and asked, "Should I send people over to disperse the crowd?"

Yun Chuwei shook her head: "If we forcibly disperse these people, we will definitely be impeached by someone with ulterior motives tomorrow. We can't give others a handle to use against us."

She paused, then continued, "Besides, this was actually part of my plan!"

Xie Xuan frowned, not understanding what Yun Chuwei was trying to do.

Yun Chuwei then said, "Those people are looking for me and Yun Zheng. We'll go downstairs in a bit, and you can drive away!"

Xie Xuan immediately objected: "Yun Chuwei, we are now engaged. You want me to leave?"
