Master Emperor, your wife is too poisonous

Chapter 504 Who Are Those Two Guards?

After Ye Lingxi asked Xiaobao, she told him to have a good rest. After getting up and washing up, she went to Mr. Ye's yard.

Mr. Ye seemed to have expected her to arrive, and prepared breakfast for her.

When the grandfather and grandson were sitting in the side hall having breakfast together, Mr. Ye briefly told her what happened last night, focusing on what happened after Helian Mingye left with Xiaobao.

"Those two killers are from the princess's palace." Mr. Ye said in a deep voice after taking a sip of porridge, "They are both familiar faces, they often follow the princess, even I can recognize them."

Ye Lingxi's hand holding the chopsticks froze, and she looked up at Mr. Ye in surprise, "Both are the princess' guards?"

Last night, Helian Mingye only mentioned the one who was ambushing in the water with her, but she really didn't expect that the one who held the prince hostage was also the princess's person.

"Yes." Mr. Ye took a bun and ate it slowly, and said to her in a slow voice, "Of course the princess refuses to admit it, saying that she doesn't know why these two people do such things at all, and keeps saying that she Unjust, someone wanted to frame her."

"The emperor asked her why she suddenly dismissed the guards and left Xiaobao on the bridge, and she said that she just wanted to ask Xiaobao about his relationship with Helian Mingye."

Ye Lingxi was also eating a steamed stuffed bun. Hearing Mr. Ye's words, she asked suspiciously, "The relationship between Xiaobao and Helian Mingye? What does this mean?"

"The rumors about your engagement to Helian Mingye are all the rage, saying everything." Mr. Ye said angrily, "Those people who don't have a good eye say that Helian Mingye will fall in love with you for no reason. , there are rumors that Xiaobao was originally the child of you and Helian Mingye, and you used the child as a threat to force Helian Mingye to marry you."

"The most exaggerated thing is that they also said that you must have raped Helian Mingye back then!" Mr. Ye swears angrily, "Everyone is talking nonsense, my granddaughter is so beautiful, how can I be blind to see her?" Helian Mingye's little boy!"

Ye Lingxi's eyes twitched fiercely.

Well, anyway, in the final analysis, I still blame her for being blind when she fell in love with Helian Mingye...

However, seeing that Mr. Ye didn't seem to be targeting Helian Mingye or her, he just spoke indiscriminately angrily, so she didn't make much excuses. She took a mouthful of porridge to suppress her emotions, coughed, and then continued. Said: "That's really too much to pass on. Those people are also free, and they are better than the other. Why don't they write scripts if they have the ability."

It's okay if she didn't say anything, but the old man Ye became even angrier when he mentioned this, "Don't you think so? There are more words between you and Helian Mingye than between you and Ji Linyuan!"

Well, she hit the gun again.

Ye Lingxi put on a look of deep remorse, buried her head and drank the porridge silently.

After Mr. Ye scolded him severely and his anger dissipated, she graciously brought some food to Mr. Ye, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, don't be angry. What others say is their business. We can't control their mouths."

"The main thing is about Xiaobao." Ye Lingxi wisely changed the subject immediately to avoid being attacked by Mr. Ye again. "Princess, what do you mean has nothing to do with her? She has no intention of harming Xiaobao?"

"Yes." Old Master Ye replied in a deep voice, "She said she was just asking questions, and the reason why she stopped on the covered bridge in the lake was because she was thinking about a private matter after all, so that outsiders could not hear too much, and she wanted to send her back. The servant also means the same thing.”

"How does she explain those two guards?" Ye Lingxi asked, "They are her personal guards, so she has to admit it."

"She did admit it, but she just said that she didn't instigate those two people to do what they did, but someone hurt her."

When Mr. Ye said this, his tone was low, he raised his eyes and glanced at Ye Lingxi and asked, "What do you think about this?"

"It's hard to say." Ye Lingxi said, "It stands to reason that it's a bit strange to leave such a big hole. It seems that someone deliberately planted her on her body."

Old Master Ye didn't respond, so Ye Lingxi continued.

"I don't have much contact with Ji Xuanxue. In my opinion, she is just a little arrogant and domineering. In fact, she has no brains, let alone scheming."

Ye Lingxi said: "The game last night was aimed at Xiaobao, that's for sure."

"According to Xiaobao, the man in black first forced Ji Xuanxue to kill him. Xiaobao took the opportunity to escape and wanted to jump into the lake to escape, but fell into the second trap."

The porridge in the bowl was almost cold, Ye Lingxi was drinking the porridge spoonful by spoonful, while analyzing it with Mr. Ye, "Think about it the other way around, assuming that this game really happened last night."

"Whether it was Ji Xuanxue who killed Xiaobao with a sword, or she forced Xiaobao to jump into the lake and caused Xiaobao to drown in the end, she couldn't get rid of it in the end. If something happens to Xiaobao, she must bear this life. Up."

"No matter how stupid she is, there is no need to dig a hole for herself to jump in." Ye Lingxi said, "So I am more inclined that she was indeed framed and used by someone."

Mr. Ye nodded, "The emperor also meant the same thing, so now she is only punished to confine her in the palace, and let her continue to pursue other clues."

"But this thing was done extremely well." Old Master Ye said, "Both assassins died on the spot, their residences were searched, and everyone they came into contact with was searched, but no clues were found at all. "

"The current public opinion is that these two people are supposed to be undercover agents in the palace. They deliberately created such an incident through the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, and wanted the prince's life."

Old Man Ye snorted coldly, "It's only a fool who believes that he is aiming at the prince, but he has no way to explain it and wants to pick the princess clean, so he made such a statement to confuse him."

"But it really doesn't make sense." Old Master Ye frowned and said, "Xiaobao is a child, how much enmity can he have with others, and he went to such lengths to set up such a game, even at the expense of all the chess pieces hidden in the palace. It was folded in, just to kill Xiaobao? What can I get by killing a child of him?"

"Let me be enmity with the princess?" Ye Lingxi squinted her eyes and said, "That's meaningless, do you want to see me go into the palace to kill the princess in a fit of anger to avenge Xiaobao?"

"Is that sowing discord between our Duke of Zhongguo and the royal family?"

Mr. Ye shook his head, "Our Ye family is weak now, and I have always been idle in the court. I can't go to the battlefield as an old man, and the Ye family has no other people who can be used in the court to provoke Zhongguo and the royal family. Relationships don't do any good either, which doesn't make sense."

If this guess is denied, it means that this person is not here for the Ye family.

But as Old Master Ye said, killing Xiaobao didn't mean much to them.

That is to say... This game is actually aimed at her?
Ye Lingxi frowned, with a serious look on her face, always feeling that there was still something that couldn't make sense.

Mr. Ye went to the palace after dinner, and said he would check on the situation.

Not long after she sent old man Ye out, Jin Hyuk arrived, and brought a lot of supplements, saying that Helian Mingye asked him to deliver them.

"The master said that these are all for the young master. The young master was shocked last night, so let the young master make up for it."

Ye Lingxi casually opened a box and took a look. Seeing that it contained a thousand-year-old ganoderma lucidum, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Your master is generous. Those who don't know this may think that your master did something wrong last night."

"Hey, we did make a mistake." Jin He sighed, and said with self-blame, "The two guards next to the princess were originally our eyeliners, but who knew they would suddenly turn their backs and attack the young master? thing……"

Just halfway through Jin He's words, Ye Lingxi suddenly reached out and grabbed his shoulder with such force that he felt a raw pain in his flesh.

"What did you say?" Ye Lingxi's eyes were fixed on him, and the deep anger was suppressed in his eyes, "Say it again, who are those two guards?!"
