Chapter 207 Eye Drops
Ye Hanyi was carried into Xiyan Palace, and Concubine Rou was frightened out of her wits.
Fortunately, her condition was less serious than Xiao Baozhu's. After the imperial physician gave her acupuncture, she gradually woke up.
Concubine Rou hurried forward, "Han Yi, are you awake? How do you feel?"
Ye Hanyi subconsciously reached out to touch his body, hissed softly, and frowned.
"pain."
Concubine Rou quickly held her down and said, "You are injured, don't move."
As he spoke, his eyes turned red again. "Tell me, how could you be so careless? If anything happens to you, how am I going to explain to your parents?"
"Aunt, I'm fine. Where's Baozhu?"
Lu Zhiran tried to be as light-hearted as possible, "Baozhu has been rescued, and the imperial physician is treating her. Don't worry."
Only then did Ye Hanyi breathe a sigh of relief.
Concubine Rou asked, "What exactly is going on? How did you provoke the tiger?"
When Ye Hanyi recalled what happened before, a hint of darkness appeared in his eyes.
"It was Jiang Zelin. He shot and killed an underage tiger cub."
The tiger cub was perhaps only two or three months old, about the size of an ordinary hunting dog, and had a certain attack power, but was far less formidable than an adult tiger.
Xiao Baozhu got separated from her guards and happened to meet the tiger cub.
She didn't dare to provoke it easily and was about to sneak away, but Jiang Zelin appeared from nowhere and shot the little tiger. It was enraged and Xiao Baozhu had to flee in a hurry.
In the end, Jiang Zelin successfully shot the young tiger to death and presented it to Xiao Baozhu like a treasure, as if seeking credit for it.
Xiao Baozhu didn't want to pay attention to him, but he stuck to her like a dog-skin plaster.
"I just happened to see Baozhu being harassed by that guy. Maybe it's because I'm mean-spirited, but I feel that the way he looks at Baozhu is not pure. If I hadn't happened to see him, I don't know what he would have done to Baozhu."
Lu Zhiran's eyes turned a little colder.
Would Jiang Zelin be so bold as to disrespect the princess?
Maybe he wouldn't dare to do it openly, but in the woods, no one can tell what accidents might happen.
If the two of them happened to be trapped, some physical contact would inevitably occur, and Xiao Baozhu, as a woman, would naturally suffer.
If this matter becomes a big deal, Xiao Baozhu may have no choice but to marry someone else.
Ye Hanyi's sudden intervention ruined Jiang Zelin's plan.
And then, the unexpected intrusion of the tiger caught everyone off guard.
So, what about the Sun family? What role do they play in this?
This is the Sun family's hunting ground. The appearance of a tiger is itself a dereliction of duty on the part of the Sun family.
Even more suspicious was Sun Jingxuan's reaction.
At first, he clearly looked like he knew something, and his anxiety was just on the surface. It was not until later, when Jiang Zelin was carried out and he heard about the existence of the tiger, that his expression really changed, and he was in a panic as if things were out of his control.
He also invited Jiang Zelin.
All these clues prove that Sun Jingxuan is suspicious.
In order to reject the marriage and gain the moral high ground for himself and the Sun family, he actually devised such a vicious plan.
Even if she hadn't encountered the tiger and Ye Hanyi hadn't intervened, Xiao Baozhu would have definitely been tricked by them.
Concubine Rou widened her eyes when she heard this.
"How dare that kid from the Jiang family plot against Baozhu?"
Ye Hanyi said dimly, "Maybe I am being mean, but I did see him pulling and tugging at Baozhu."
Concubine Rou was so angry that her face turned green. "How ridiculous! How dare you!"
Baozhu grew up under her care, and she has the closest relationship with Aci. Concubine Rou has long treated her as her own daughter. Jiang Zelin's actions have simply stepped on Concubine Rou's minefields.
"I remember this Jiang Zelin. Doesn't Baozhu have a grudge against him? Why is he here today?"
Lu Zhiran caught a glimpse of a bright yellow corner of clothing out of the corner of her eye. She lowered her eyelids slightly and spoke softly.
"Mr. Sun specially invited him here to help clear up the misunderstanding between the two of them."
Ye Hanyi said bluntly, "In my opinion, Mr. Sun isn't very smart. He knew Baozhu didn't like Jiang Zelin, but he still invited him here. Who wants him to be a peacemaker? I'm afraid he has no good intentions."
Lu Zhiran quickly stopped him, "Hanyi, Young Master Sun is the Queen's nephew, don't talk nonsense."
Ye Hanyi didn't care. "I was telling the truth. If he hadn't brought Jiang Zelin here, we wouldn't have encountered this danger."
Lu Zhiran kindly defended him, "It was just an accident, it's not Mr. Sun's fault."
Ye Hanyi looked at her puzzledly, "Why are you still speaking for him? He's the host. He didn't clean up the hunting grounds in advance, putting all of us in danger. He can't shirk this responsibility!"
In his excitement, Ye Hanyi pulled on the wound and gasped in pain.
Concubine Rou quickly helped the man lie down and asked, "Why are you so excited about those people?"
Ye Hanyi lowered his voice a bit, "I feel sorry for Baozhu! Sun Jingxuan was the consort chosen by the Empress for her, but he turned out to be such a jerk, not caring about Baozhu at all. He certainly didn't want to marry Baozhu, but he didn't dare to go against the Empress's wishes, so he had some evil thoughts..."
Lu Zhiran's eyebrows moved slightly, and she couldn't help but look at Ye Hanyi.
Was she really just speaking out of anger? Or...
Concubine Rou was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted and scolded her.
"Don't talk nonsense without evidence!"
Ye Hanyi muttered softly, "Of course I wouldn't say anything nonsense in front of other people, but this is here with you, right? No one can hear it."
At this moment, a message came from outside, "The Emperor has arrived."
Several people immediately looked towards the door, and Emperor Defeng strode in with a layer of cold frost on his face.
Concubine Rou was slightly surprised. When did the emperor come? How much did he hear?
Lu Zhiran and Ye Hanyi's eyes met, and they both saw tacit understanding and understanding in each other's eyes.
The double act between the two of them just now gave Sun Jingxuan and Jiang Zelin a severe scolding.
If the emperor is dissatisfied and suspicious about this matter, he will definitely send people to investigate it thoroughly.
Whoever is behind this will naturally be exposed.
After this incident, even if Empress Sun still believed in Sun Jingxuan, Emperor Defeng would definitely carefully consider Xiao Baozhu's marriage.
They couldn't interfere in this matter, so they could only help her do this.
Ye Hanyi wanted to sit up, but was stopped by Emperor Defeng.
He slightly suppressed the low pressure around him and spoke slowly.
"You are injured, so please excuse me."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Emperor Defeng's eyes fell on her pale face, and his tone became more kind.
"This time, it's all thanks to you for saving Baozhu. You are worthy of being the granddaughter of the King of Southern Yunnan. You have the same demeanor as he did in his youth."
Ye Hanyi's face was filled with pride. "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I am still far behind my grandfather. Besides, it was not me who saved the pearl this time. It was a young master who saved us."
