Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 365 Half Life (st update)
Xiao Chengxuan was disgusted at the mention of this name, and his face became ugly.

"That's her! Why, do you know her?"

Xiao Lanxi shook her head: "That's not true. I just returned to Beijing and I only had time to come to the emperor's place. What else can I talk about? It's just... I have indeed heard of this name. The empress in the palace once mentioned it."

Xiao Chengxuan said in a mocking tone: "She is very capable. She is the center of attention everywhere. You would be surprised if you haven't heard of her."

He thought that Ye Chutang was finally in big trouble this time. As long as he watched her with cold eyes, he could see her completely defeated and her reputation ruined.

Who knew there would be such a shocking reversal!
"Then Ye Shixian is crazy!? What reason does she have to kill her own mother?!"

You know, once this news comes out, no one will discuss Ye Chutang anymore, and there will even be some people who feel that she was wronged before and want to cry out for her!

"How is the investigation going at Shuntian Mansion?"

The attendant lowered his head: "My subordinates are incompetent and have not found any information yet."

Xiao Chengxuan was even more annoyed.

There is no one of him in Shuntian Prefecture. When he was at the peak of his momentum, he tried several times but failed to make Zhao Chengyin, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, fall to him.

He was an old official and very naughty. He single-handedly promoted Zhang Qian, and they were on the same page as him.

Shuntian Mansion became a hard nut to crack, giving Xiao Chengxuan a severe headache.

He couldn't handle it when he was in power, let alone now.

"I know, you go down first. If you have any news, report it immediately!"

"Yes!"

The entourage respectfully withdrew, Xiao Chengxuan was extremely irritable, he picked up the wine jar and was about to pour wine. When he raised his hand, it was empty, and then he remembered that it was already empty.

Xiao Lanxi stood up to pour him tea and persuaded: "Brother, why should you care about this kind of thing? Since the case has been sent to Shuntian Mansion, there will be a result sooner or later."

Xiao Chengxuan frowned: "You haven't been in the capital for a long time. You don't know how difficult that Ye - that Ye family is!"

Xiao Lanxi seemed a little confused.

"Brother Emperor, you mean...Ye Chutang? But I heard that she has excellent medical skills, and everyone in the palace admires her very much. They said that she raised several younger siblings by herself, and she is really an extraordinary woman. It seems that before she returned to Beijing, , and by chance, he saved the life of Prince Dingbei——"

"It's just evil, what's there to say!" Xiao Chengxuan interrupted her, the disgust in his eyes almost overflowing, "As for the medical skills... they are so amazing, how many of them have seen them with their own eyes? She said that the three-point disease is ten points, Even a quack doctor has become a miracle doctor!”

Xiao Chengxuan has always looked down upon Ye Chutang. She was just a down-and-out official lady without the support of her father and brother. Who knows how she got to where she is today?
Xiao Lanxi paused and seemed to hesitate: "But... I heard that both the eldest princess's mansion and Dingbeihou's mansion treat her as a guest."

Xiao Chengxuan disagreed.

"You haven't seen her. Once you do, you will know that that woman is very cunning and has many thoughts!"

As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Lanxi's innocent and well-behaved look and shook his head again.
"Forget it, you'd better stay away from her! Otherwise, you won't even know if someone does it later!"

Xiao Lanxi blinked and showed a timid and obedient smile.

"Lan Xi will do whatever the emperor says."

……

Ye Shixian never thought that one day she would be imprisoned in a prison.

The dark and narrow corridor, the cold and hard iron door, and the disgusting smell filling her nose all made her tremble with fear.

But what made her most uncomfortable was the screams and moans that were as sharp as a ghost.

"boom!"

The cell door slammed shut, and the jailer was about to leave.

"Wait!" Ye Shixian said quickly, "Where is Shaoyao? Where is she being held now?"

She looked carefully just now, but after searching around, she couldn't see any trace of peony. The jailer said impatiently: "When I was interrogated just now, you only said that you were wronged and refused to admit it. Your Excellency said that we will retrial tomorrow and let you confront that Shaoyao in court! As for where she is being held, it is not you. You can ask, just wait!”

After that, the jailer didn't stop anymore and walked away.

"I--"

Ye Shixian stretched out her hand to catch him, but failed.

Suddenly, she felt a chill on her body. She subconsciously raised her head and saw the people in the cells opposite. Their eyes fell on her bare white wrists like poisonous snakes.

One look at this wrist shows that she is a daughter of a wealthy family. It is incompatible with this place and is very eye-catching.

Ye Shixian's hair stood on end and she quickly retracted her hand.

There was a burst of ridicule from the cell opposite.

"Which lady from this family is actually reduced to staying with us?"

Unspeakable fear welled up from the bottom of her heart. Ye Shixian huddled in the corner and hugged herself with her hands, but she still shivered unconsciously.

Those eyes didn't disappear, like poisonous snakes hiding in the darkness, who didn't know when they would rush up and bite her to death!
She finally realized that the people locked up here were all extremely evil people.

She will never have an easy time here!
She had to get out as soon as possible!
But it’s easy to say, but how difficult is it to do?

Someone suddenly shouted: "You don't know yet, right? She was imprisoned after killing her own mother!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone who was still noisy and noisy fell silent.

The atmosphere was extremely weird.

Ye Shixian reflexively retorted: "I didn't! Someone framed me... They framed me!"

Another hoarse voice mocked: "It's not something ordinary people can do to be 'framed' with such a crime, right?"

Ye Shixian was instantly choked.

She covered her ears, not wanting to hear a word from those people anymore, and kept repeating:

"I didn't kill, I didn't kill, I was wronged... I was wronged!"

……

That night.

Ye Chutang wrapped the prepared medicine, and tied it in a few clicks with her long, thin fingers as white as green onions.

Xiao Wu sat opposite her, holding his chin in his hands, a little strange.

——Sister, since she returned to Beijing, she has seldom seen patients in person. Why did she suddenly start dispensing medicines in person this time?

Ye Chutang packed up, gently rubbed his chin, thoughtfully:
"It should be able to save half of my life..."

Xiao Wu was even more curious.

——Half life?

It's never been a problem for my sister to save people and see a doctor. Fourth brother once said that the Lord of Hell made people die at the third watch, but my sister kept people until the fifth watch. How come they only saved half of their lives?
Ye Chutang saw Xiao Wu staring blankly at the packets of medicine, and smiled and tapped her nose.

"What are you looking at? Do you want to eat?"

Xiaowu hurriedly covered his nose and hind legs.

No, no!
The medicine doesn't taste good at all! Not as delicious as date cake! It’s not as delicious as chestnut red bean puree!
Ye Chutang actually never thought that Ye Heng could be so useless and was already dying before he reached Tongbei.

Of course he can't die.

——At least not now.
