Chapter 486 Who is setting up the trap? (Part )
Ye Chutang shook his head: "Let's follow the prescription given by the court for now."

Zhao Xuanping couldn't hide his disappointment, but he could only accept this result.

"Okay. Everything is up to the court to decide!"

……

In the evening, Ye Chutang left Prince Lie's Mansion.

Chu Qiyuan and Zhao Xuanping will stay together tonight and take turns to look after Xiao Chengqi.

As soon as he returned to the Ye Mansion, Ye Chutang found that Ye Jingyan had returned.

Seeing the familiar figure of the young man, Ye Chutang remembered that today was a ten-day holiday.

I was so busy all day that I forgot about this matter.

"Sister."

Ye Jingyan took a few steps forward, first looked around at Ye Chutang and Xiaowu, and found that they were both normal, then he breathed a sigh of relief without making a sound.

Ye Chutang noticed his nervousness and asked with a smile:

"What's wrong? Is there anything unhappy in the Imperial College?"

Ye Jingyan shook his head: "No, everything is fine. It's just..."

He hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Sister, why did you come back so late today?"

This is what I was asking.

Ye Chutang did not hide it from him. As he led Xiao Wu into the house, he said, "We went to Prince Lie's mansion."

Ye Jingyan frowned slightly.

Ye Chutang took in all the changes in his expression and had already guessed a little bit in his mind.

She sat down at the table. The food had already been laid out, along with a plate of red date cake, which he had obviously brought back specially for Xiaowu.

She pinched a piece and fed it to Xiaowu: "Here, your third brother brought it specially for you, but you can't eat too much."

Xiaowu's cheeks were puffed up, but he didn't forget to smile at his third brother.

Ye Jingyan didn't have that thought.

He hesitated for a moment, closed the door, and made sure that no one else was around before he spoke carefully: "Sister, I heard some rumors in the Imperial College today."

Ye Chutang also took a sip and found it a bit too sweet, so he poured himself a cup of tea to moisten his throat.

The clear and rich tea aroma instantly dissipates the sweetness.

"About me?"

Ye Jingyan was stunned.

"Sister...know?"

Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows: "If it has nothing to do with me, why would you mention it specifically?"

Ye Jingyan didn't know how to start the conversation at first, but when he heard Ye Chutang mention it so calmly, he felt relieved for some reason.

He paused and said, "It is indeed related to Sister, and also to King Lie."

Ye Chutang nodded, motioning for him to continue.

Ye Jingyan pursed his lips.

"Sister, are you going to Prince Lie's mansion today because Prince Lie suddenly fell ill?"

Ye Chutang waved his hand: "It's not a sudden illness, but he vomited blood and fainted. Besides me, the judge of the court also went to see him today. He is still in Prince Lie's mansion."

Ye Jingyan: "..."

Suddenly, it seemed that the matter was not as serious as he thought...

Ye Chutang asked back: "Has this news spread to the Imperial College?"

"What?" Ye Jingyan didn't react.

"Something happened to Prince Lie." Ye Chutang said, "I heard about it in the palace this morning, and then I went directly to Prince Lie's mansion. Not many people know about this, so how come you also heard about it?"

Ye Jingyan sighed: "There is no impenetrable wall in the world, not to mention, that is the Imperial College."

There are many powerful people and connections there. Although they have tried their best to block the news, Prince Lie's Mansion has sent people into the palace, so there is no way to hide it from those people's eyes.

Moreover, Chu Qiyuan and Ye Chutang entered the palace in an open and aboveboard manner. If one thought about it, one would know that something must have happened to Prince Lie. Ye Chutang was not surprised.

"That's about it. I guess I'll have to go there several times in the next period of time."

Ye Jingyan's handsome eyebrows frowned.

Ye Chutang paused while holding the teacup: "What's wrong?"

Ye Jingyan was silent for a moment, but finally told the whole story:
"Sister, what I want to talk about most today is not those things, but... the rumors that have spread from somewhere claiming that King Lie's sudden illness this time is because of you."

Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Ye Jingyan nodded: "The gist is that the antidote brought back from Guanling by the Imperial Guards was actually useless. It was Sister who misled us, causing King Lie to use the wrong medicine and fail to recover, leading to the serious condition of vomiting blood and coma today."

When he first heard these words, he was angry and worried, but he knew it was useless to argue with those people, so he rushed back as quickly as possible.

"These things clearly have nothing to do with Sister, but they want to frame her for the crime. They deserve to be killed!"

Ye Chutang listened quietly and smiled softly.

Ye Jingyan was puzzled: "Sister, what are you laughing at? Do you know that those rumors have already been -"

"I'm laughing. You've seen everything so clearly, why are you still so worried?"

Ye Jingyan was stunned for a moment.

Looking at that beautiful face with a faint smile, he suddenly realized something: "Sister... have you guessed it a long time ago?"

Ye Chutang tilted his head to think for a moment, then said, "Half and half."

When Xiao Chengqi first discovered that there was something wrong with the antidote and it came to her after many twists and turns, she knew that the person behind it had no good intentions.

After all, it was she who suggested the medicine.

It's not impossible to blame all these things on her.

She just didn't expect that the other party would choose this time.

After all, Xiao Chengqi is a prince with a noble status. If you treat him cruelly, you will definitely be investigated.

If any step is not taken well, the whole thing may be lost.

So the best choice is to take it slow - slowly ruin Xiao Chengqi's body, slowly make Xiao Chengqi lose everything.

But it was obvious that the other party no longer had the patience.

And...I really want to drag her into this.

"Hey."

Ye Chutang held his chin with one hand, looking somewhat sad.

"I've made so many enemies since returning to Beijing that the process of elimination doesn't work anymore."

Ye Jingyan: "..."

Seeing his sister like this, he knew that she must have already come up with a way to deal with it, and his tense heart finally relaxed completely.

However, even so, he still couldn't completely put the matter aside and leave it alone.

"Who on earth wants to get rid of King Lie and also involve my sister?"

This kills two birds with one stone, which is really a very thoughtful move.

Ye Chutang shook his head: "I don't know yet."

She really didn't know. After all, there were several suspects, and she couldn't be completely sure at the moment.

"So, sister, will you just let them slander you?"

The rumor is spreading like wildfire, and it will probably spread throughout the capital in no time.

By then, it won’t be so easy to clarify the matter!
Ye Chutang pinched his aching shoulder, and Xiaowu hurried forward and pounded it several times with his two little fleshy hands.

Ye Chutang smiled and pinched her chubby little face, then looked at Ye Jingyan.

"Are they allowed to plot against me but I am not allowed to plot against them?"

Ye Jingyan was stunned: "Sister, what you mean is..."

Ye Chutang blinked and smiled:

"Only by luring the enemy deep into our territory can we find the most suitable position to strike."
