"I, that's not what I meant..." The man suddenly turned pale.
"Then what do you mean?" How could Ling Xuewei let him go so easily, "My position as royal chef was ordered by the emperor himself. If you say that I can't compare with you, aren't you saying that the emperor has no discernment and does not recognize talents?
"
hiss……
Everyone on the field took a cold breath.
Not to mention the cooks, even the guards here were frightened.
This kid, how dare he say that! He’s going to die!
"Ahem... Your Excellency, please don't speak nonsense. If you dare to insult the current emperor, you will be beheaded." The guard warned carefully from the side.
Ling Xuewei responded honestly, "I made a mistake, please forgive me. I have no other intentions. I just hope that you can enforce the law impartially and not be deceived by the villain's lies."
"It's natural."
The guard leader was obviously a sensible man. After all, Ling Xuewei in front of him looked calm and calm. If he was really causing trouble, there would be no flaws.
Besides, they are in the limelight now, so why bother with these people?
He has long been accustomed to the intrigues in the palace, and he can see through these little tricks at a glance. It is obvious that these people are trying to find trouble but are being taught a lesson, and now they are trying to punish them again. They are really hopeless.
"As a palace guard, I will naturally enforce the law impartially. You say he intentionally hurt people, do you have any evidence?" The guard looked at the group of palace people who were beaten.
"Our injuries are proof! Sir, you can't protect this kid!" The palace man pointed to his broken leg.
"How outrageous! I have always been fair, how dare you slander me?" the guard glared.
"I don't dare, I'm just in a hurry. Please forgive me!" The man was so frightened that he begged for mercy again and again.
The guard snorted coldly, feeling even more displeased with these people, and said coldly, "It's obvious that you had bad intentions, so you were taught a lesson. Instead, you slapped them on the back. It seems like you won't tell the truth if I don't teach you a lesson!"
"It's a small injustice, it's a small injustice..."
Ling Xuewei glanced at the guard in surprise. This guard seemed to be particularly protective of her? Why is this?
Ling Xuewei didn't know that the palace had been full of rumors about her in the past few days.
For the first time, Ye Moyan appointed a pharmacist as his royal chef, responsible for all his meals. This was something that had never happened before.
Despite the appearance of the imperial dining room in the palace, in fact, it has been replaced many times.
In the past two years, Ye Moyan's appetite has become worse and worse. Everyone in the imperial dining room is not nervous every day, bringing the meals. In the end, 90% of the food in them was returned intact. Because of this incident
, Master Fuji cut off the heads of many imperial chefs.
Now that he has finally met an imperial chef who suits his taste, how can everyone not be eager for it?
It has to be said that a person who can be a guard captain will naturally have a good eye for assessing situations.
"Since there is no evidence, we can only go to the prison. Come on!"
"Stop! I can prove it for them!"
I heard a sudden loud shout, and then I saw a person walking slowly from behind.
"Who are you?" The guard looked in the direction of the person.
Ling Xuewei narrowed her eyes slightly when she saw the person coming.
This is quite a coincidence.
The person who came was Chong Jingyao, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"I'd like to ask Chong Jingyao of Yu Zong." Chong Jingyao said.
"Chong Jingyao? Are you the medical saint?" The guard raised his eyebrows.
"That's right." Chong Jingyao said with a hint of arrogance on his face.
"You just said you could prove it for them? But really?" the guard asked.
"Of course it's true. I happened to pass by here accidentally, and I saw clearly what happened. What these imperial chefs said was true. It was indeed this person who was looking for trouble first, and then he was afraid of being discovered and wanted to kill someone. If it weren't for several
If you arrive in time, I'm afraid he will really succeed." Chong Jingyao said with a serious face.
The guard captain looked surprised.
Is this really true? His intuition is never wrong. Could it be that he really misunderstood?
Ling Xuewei smiled half-heartedly, "Young Master Chong showed up just in time. If it's as you said, and you saw me intending to kill someone and silence me, why did you not show up until now?"
Chong Jingyao hesitated for a moment, then snorted coldly, "I am a foreign minister, and it is not appropriate to interfere with the affairs of the palace, so naturally I did not show up."
"Oh, Mr. Chong really understands justice." Ling Xuewei sneered, "I know, I thought you had a heart full of justice, but you don't know, I thought Mr. Chong is greedy for life and afraid of death, and you are just waiting for the guards to find out so that you can speak out and testify.
"
"you……"
The guard looked at Chong Jingyao suspiciously. Indeed, this person had not appeared for a long time and would not appear until later. However, he showed up at this time, which had to arouse suspicion.
"You're talking nonsense! I'm not familiar with them, why should I speak for them to slander you?" Chong Jingyao asked.
"Did I ever say that you slandered me? Since you admitted it yourself, I have nothing to say." Ling Xuewei shrugged.
"You Ling Mo, you are so eloquent! Do you really think that just a few words can clear away the suspicion on yourself?" Chong Jingyao said, "My lords, I have known this person for a long time. He didn't know how to use it at the beginning.
How to catch up with Xi Muzong, and then left the method in Yeji Palace, so
Even the senior brother who was kind to him was abandoned by her. Now that he has become the royal chef, he does not pay attention to other people! You can check it out. Many people in the pharmacy are dissatisfied with her. This person is also
Miss Wu, who suppresses the Hunyuan Sect everywhere, is really hateful!"
Ha...Wu Yinghan?
It seems that Chong Jingyao never forgets to praise Miss Wu at all times?
After hearing this, everyone's eyes suddenly changed when they looked at Ling Xuewei, with obvious disdain.
When the guard captain saw this, he hesitated and asked, "Mr. Chong, do you really mean what you said?"
"It's absolutely true. If there's even half a lie, I'll deal with it." Chong Jingyao could only swear.
What Chong Jingyao swore was true, so the guards naturally believed most of it.
"In that case, Mr. Ling, please come with me." Although the guard captain still had doubts in his heart, he could only handle it impartially.
He originally thought that Ling Xuewei would resist or make a few excuses, but he didn't expect that Ling Xuewei didn't say a word and allowed the guards to take him.
"take away!"
The guards were escorting Ling Xuewei. When they passed Chong Jingyao, they heard Chong Jingyao's gloating voice, "Boy, you are too young to fight with me!"
Ling Xuewei glanced at Chong Jingyao indifferently, her eyes were as cold as looking at a dead person.
Chong Jingyao couldn't help but feel excited. Looking at Ling Xuewei's leaving figure, for some reason he suddenly felt uneasy in his heart.
But this little uneasiness was quickly put aside by him.
He's just a young boy, there's nothing to be afraid of.
"Master Chong..."
"You have done a good job, I will tell the person that you are indispensable." Chong Jingyao was very happy after winning the round.
Several people were immediately surprised, "Thank you, Mr. Chong..."
"Remember, keep your mouth tight. If I hear any bad rumors, I will be careful about your life!" Chong Jingyao did not forget to remind him.
"Young ones don't dare..."
After beating for a while, Chong Jingyao left proudly with his head held high.
"Ah! He's just a second-generation ancestor who relies on the sect. He really thinks that he is a dishonor!" The expressions of the palace officials who were respectful just now changed immediately after Chong Jingyao turned around.
"Brother, it's good this time, we've made a lot of money!" His subordinates also looked excited.
"As long as you know, keep your mouths shut. You will benefit from these brothers in the future!" the leading palace servant warned.
"The sous chef..."
The man looked at the sous chef who had fainted from the pain, with disgust flashing in his eyes, "Be clean and put all the blame on that kid when you get back! He is a useless person now anyway, and he can't make much trouble!"
"Brother understands..."
****
Here, Chong Jingyao turned around a remote place and saw a woman's figure standing in front of him.
"Is the matter done?" Wuying asked coldly.
"Everything goes well, don't worry." Looking at Wu Yinghan's face, Chong Jingyao couldn't hide his surprise.
"That's good. I will report your matter to my father as soon as possible. Just wait." Wu Yinghan nodded.
"Then it's time to work." Chong Jingyao said respectfully.
Wu Yinghan's figure disappeared in a flash.
Chong Jingyao rubbed his chin, sniffing the lingering fragrance of Wuying Han in the air, his eyes flashing lustfully, "This young lady is really the most beautiful lady... If I can make her fall in love with me, then..."
Chong Jingyao's eyes flashed with deep ambition, and he left without stopping.
He didn't know that on the tree in the darkness, a black shadow suddenly flashed across the tree, silently.

Inside the temporary prison.
Ling Xuewei sat in the corner, playing with the hay boredly.
The guard obviously didn't add insult to injury, and the cell he arranged was quite tidy.
Ling Xuewei put her hands behind her head and leaned against the wall lazily, thinking about what happened today.
It was obvious that both the imperial chefs and Chong Jingyao were under the instigation of others.
Just those few people, who can even instigate Chong Jingyao, the young master of Jingyu Sect?
This person's identity must be extraordinary, otherwise he would not be able to impress Chong Jingyao.
However, Chong Jingyao originally disliked him, so he did not rule out the possibility of getting involved himself.
After thinking through this, Ling Xuewei had some guesses about what happened behind the scenes. After all, she only came into contact with a few high-status people. It seemed that her power had hindered someone's eyes.
Ling Xuewei sneered in her heart.
But do you really think she, Ling Xuewei, is easy to mess with?
Since she dares to do it, she must be prepared to bear the consequences. If she doesn't tear off a layer of their skin this time, she won't be called Ling Xuewei!

"What did you say? Who was arrested?"
Yue Feng here listened to the news reported by the people below, and his expression suddenly changed.
Yue Wei said, "The people below reported that Mr. Ling injured several imperial chefs and is now being imprisoned?"
"In which cell?" Yue Feng almost jumped up.
"Temporary prison." Moon Guard reported.
After Yue Feng heard this, he walked out without saying a word.
