Prince Bei was made red-faced by everyone's words, and could only kneel in silence.
He was indeed not innocent, and had harmed Dongfang Yao, so he did not dare to accept the interrogation of Senior Shangguan's soul-obsessing technique, and could only plead guilty!
If you don't take the initiative to plead guilty now, then when Senior Shangguan inquires about the truth, the crime will only become more serious.
"You really disappoint me. When have I ever wronged you? You are so cruel and ruthless as to extend your poisonous hand to my son!" Emperor Lanling blushed angrily and glared at Prince Bei fiercely, "Just because of Yao'er.
Do you want to kill Yao'er because you don't have any feelings for your daughter? How can you be so cruel?!"
Prince Bei lowered his head and thought, now he really doesn't have the momentum he had before, "It's true that I am sorry for the emperor's kindness. I am willing to die to apologize, but..."
Prince Bei suddenly paused and looked at Emperor Lanling pleadingly, "This matter is my own idea and has nothing to do with Mei'er. I am sure that the emperor will let Mei'er and my family go!
"
After saying that, Prince Bei kowtowed loudly to Emperor Lanling.
Emperor Lanling closed his eyes with a sad expression. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said in a low voice, "Okay, I promise you."
"Thank you, Imperial Brother!" Prince Bei showed a faint smile and kowtowed three more times to Emperor Lanling.
Then, he quickly stood up and grabbed the sword of a royal guard, put it directly on his neck, closed his eyes and swung it hard!
As the sound of the sword falling to the ground came, Prince Bei's figure shook a few times, and then he fell to the ground with a "plop". The wound on his neck kept pouring out blood, and he was instantly covered with blood.
The ground was dyed red.
"Father!!!"
Princess Lanmei suddenly came to her senses in horror, roared hysterically, supported the ground with her hands, cried loudly, and crawled towards Prince Bei.
Princess Lanmei's legs were unable to exert any strength, and it took a lot of effort to climb to Prince Bei's side. However, Prince Bei had already expired at this moment, but his eyes were still open.
His neck was cut open directly, and the broken throat caused him to suffocate to death. His face was extremely twisted and ferocious, and he looked very scary!
Princess Lanmei cried heartbrokenly and shook Prince Bei violently, trying to wake him up, but it was obviously in vain...
Dongfang Yao had woken up, and the murderer had been executed on the spot. Everyone comforted Dongfang Yao and left immediately.
Emperor Lanling was one of the few emperors in the past who cared about his relatives. Even though Prince Bei's actions made him very heartbroken, now that everyone is dead and those debts have been paid off, for the sake of family ties in the past,
On top of that, he didn’t want his brother to not have a good reputation after his death, which would also make it very difficult for his family to survive in the world.
Therefore, he issued a silence order to everyone present, not allowing anyone to mention today's events again, let alone spreading the news about today.
Emperor Lanling ordered people to send Prince Bei's body and Princess Lanmei back to Prince Bei's Mansion, and then left Prince Yao's Mansion and returned to the palace.
As for the bet between Ji Lingxuan and Princess Lanmei, after such a tragic event, it was natural that she would not mention it.
Ji Lingxuan and Chu Yingyi had already left quietly, returned to their rooms and fell asleep.
After staying up for three days and three nights, Ji Lingxuan felt physically and mentally exhausted, and it took her three days and two nights of sleep to wake up.
By the time she opened her eyes, it was already the night of the third day.
Ji Lingxuan woke up slowly, her eyes still a little dull and dazed, as if there was a thick layer of mist, full of temptation, making people want to explore deeper.
"You finally woke up?"
The lazy voice, with a hint of surprise, floated into my ears.
Ji Lingxuan blinked slightly, seemingly unable to react. She seemed to have forgotten where she was and who she was.
"You're not stupid because you slept too much, are you?"
A rich voice came, suddenly a little nervous.
The big hand that had always been warm and thick suddenly covered her forehead.
"Aren't you feeling hot?"
A confused voice sounded with a bit of confusion and worry.
"Wait a minute, I'll go outside to find a doctor for you."
After leaving such a sentence, I felt the wind in the footsteps of the people around me, followed by voices that were getting farther and farther away.
It wasn't until the footsteps disappeared that Ji Lingxuan suddenly came back to her senses.
She reached out and rubbed her temples, trying to get up from the bed quickly, but she felt that her whole body was so weak that she couldn't support her at all.
At this moment, she felt confused and lost!
It felt like I couldn't grasp anything, and I felt inexplicably panicked and confused.
She covered her eyes with the back of her hands and sighed slightly. How long had she been asleep?
At this moment, the footsteps that started to leave quickly approached again.
Ji Lingxuan turned her head and looked outside the door, and saw Dongfang Yao running back excitedly, carrying a person on his shoulders, and he looked completely imageless.
"The imperial doctor is already here, let's let the imperial doctor see how he is doing first!" Dongfang Yao quickly put down the person on his shoulders and spoke to Ji Lingxuan with an excited expression.
It turned out that the person he had just carried over like a sack was the royal doctor at his residence!
Because he disliked the imperial doctor's slow pace, he carried the person and ran here without any image.
Ji Lingxuan did not refuse, and directly handed her hand to the imperial doctor and asked him to diagnose her pulse.
"There is nothing wrong with Miss Ji's health. She is just weak because she has not eaten for too long. As long as she replenishes herself in the future, the fetus will not be affected." The imperial doctor's words were very serious.
Dongfang Yao breathed a heavy sigh of relief and sent the imperial doctor away. He immediately took over the chicken soup that had been prepared.
Ji Lingxuan was really tired. She didn't refuse Dongfang Yao's kindness and drank two large bowls!
After slowly drinking the chicken soup, Ji Lingxuan felt that her body was getting warmer and the weakness in her body gradually dissipated.
Ji Lingxuan sat on the bedside, while Dongfang Yao sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Ji Lingxuan with a smile on his face.
Ji Lingxuan felt her temples start to jump. Why did she feel that Dongfang Yao looked at her differently? What exactly was different? She couldn't explain it for a while. How did she see it?
Just don’t like it!
"Can't you stop staring at me like this?" Ji Lingxuan finally couldn't help it and reminded her unhappily.
Dongfang Yao asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"I don't like this." Ji Lingxuan said frankly.
Dongfang Yao blinked, "But I like it very much! Otherwise, you can get used to it and you will get used to it slowly."
Ji Lingxuan's mouth twitched and she glared at him fiercely, "Why should I get used to it? I'm warning you, be careful I beat you!"
"Okay, okay, where are you going to beat me?" Dongfang Yao blinked at Ji Lingxuan with dazzling eyes expectantly.
"Is there something wrong with your brain?" Ji Lingxuan frowned. Did something go wrong during her treatment and his brain went crazy?
As soon as she woke up, she found that the people around her had become crazy. Ji Lingxuan really had to feel sad!
Dongfang Yao smiled and shook his head, "How is that possible!~"
Ji Lingxuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of the time in the grove, when she kicked Dongfang Yao hard, and his reaction suddenly made goosebumps fall all over the floor.
Now, she is extremely convinced that Dongfang Yao definitely has masochistic tendencies.
Dongfang Yao didn't know what Ji Lingxuan was thinking at all, so he looked at her expectantly and said, "You have a good rest. When you recover a little, we can prepare to get married~"
"Getting married? What's going on?" Ji Lingxuan frowned inexplicably, looked at him and asked.
Dongfang Yao rubbed Ji Lingxuan's head and laughed, "Of course it is our marriage. I have already asked my father to marry us~"
Ji Lingxuan's heart suddenly pounded, and then she became angry. She fiercely lifted the quilt and got up from the bed, then kicked Dongfang Yao hard, put her hands on her hips and roared, "Go to hell, I don't want to marry you."
You, please call off that damn marriage immediately!"
Dongfang Yao was kicked under the bed by Ji Lingxuan. He stood up slowly, patted the dust on his body, raised his head and looked at Ji Lingxuan, and suddenly smiled, "Are you still thinking about Chu Yingyi? I advise you to give up.
Because... during the few days you were asleep, he was already the fiancé of another woman!" (To be continued)
