The baby-making system is unreliable

Chapter 85: The Deposed Crown Prince Exiled to the Frontier vs. the Protective General Jin (29)

Chen Zichen interrupted him, staring at Yao Wenjin who showed no respect for his elders, and said, "This happened suddenly, so your majesty can only make a temporary decision. We just need to obey your majesty's will."

Yao Wenjin sighed, stroked his sleeves, and said helplessly: "Well, if that's the case, I have nothing to say. I hope that the two princes can live up to everyone's expectations and govern the country well."

Looking at Ye Lin's half-smile, Yao Wenjin couldn't help but feel worried. He knew that the two princes had been eyeing the throne, but His Majesty did not show up this time.

I don’t know what means they will use to fight for the throne, but they may not be fair and just.

"I think everyone knows why I invited you all here today. It's because of some recent rumors. Some people even said that the man is not dead. It's ridiculous."

Ye Chen, who had not been seen for a long time, seemed to have learned his lesson and waited for Ye Yi to speak first. It was unknown what promises the two made to each other. It was rare to see them cooperate.

Ye Chen continued, "Yes, that person is indeed dead, there is no doubt about that. But why is there still such a rumor? I must get to the bottom of it."

He said this with too much confidence, as if he really wanted to get to the bottom of it. We just didn't know whether it was true or not, and it was up to him to decide.

Ye Yi echoed, "Brother Emperor, you are absolutely right. If we allow this rumor to spread, it will definitely affect the stability of our dynasty. Our top priority should be to find the person who spread the rumor and punish him severely."

Shi Yubai frowned slightly, thinking that Ye Chen and Ye Yi were cooperating very well this time, but they might not be really that well-cooperated.

He looked at Ye Lin, only to see him sitting aside with an expressionless face, as if he was thinking about something, not taking the two men seriously at all.

At this time, a minister stepped forward, bowed, and then said: "Your Highness, in my opinion, this matter may not be groundless. We should immediately send more people to investigate the truth. If this matter is true... then, depose the crown prince..."

Ye Chen's eyes turned cold, and he glanced at the man below, throwing the cup in his hand to the ground and breaking it: "I said that the man is dead, so he is dead. There is no need to investigate further. If anyone dares to mention this matter again, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Suddenly, a man was seen coming in from outside the hall, pushing a eunuch. The man was Ye Chen's personal bodyguard Mo Ran. The eunuch he was pushing looked to be only about ten years old.

"This man is the thief that I caught. He even dared to tamper with the palace and spread rumors in the capital. He simply doesn't take Your Majesty seriously."

Ye Chen seemed to be just making an objective evaluation, and then he stopped talking, as if waiting for him to speak.

As everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, Ye Yi pointed at the familiar figure in front of him and shouted angrily: "Little Box, who on earth ordered you to do this!?"

His voice exploded in the air like thunder, shaking the air around him so much that it seemed to solidify.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please save me. Your Highness is clearly you. It is you who ordered me to do this!?"

The little box shouted in panic, crawled to the ground and kowtowed. Everyone looked in the direction the little box pointed and were all stunned.

How could it be him?! No way!? Is this true? Are you kidding me!

"Me?! Who are you talking about?!"

Ye Chen's face was full of disbelief, he stood there in a daze. He never thought that he would be pointed at by him.

You have to know that he is the one who is close to Concubine Yin, the emperor's most beloved concubine two years ago. Now, there are only two of them who are still by the emperor's side to take care of him.

One is Concubine Chen, and the other is Lady Yin. But no one knows that Lady Yin was actually cultivated by him and specially presented to his father.

And now, the eunuch beside her actually...actually pointed out him? !

"How dare you... You actually dare to talk nonsense and slander my second brother. How could my second brother do such a thing!!!"

Ye Yi, however, had a look of disbelief on his face, as if he was really angry, and slapped the table.

When these words were spoken, it seemed as if their brotherly relationship was really very good. They even had the nerve to pretend to be brothers even though they were stabbing each other in the back.

"It's not me, stop talking nonsense. The blood stain is also in my mother's palace. How could I be so unfilial!!"

Ye Chen frowned, feeling confused and angry. He stared at the person in front of him and said firmly, "I have always respected and loved my mother. How could I do such a treasonous thing?"

He knew his identity and status, and if he was misunderstood or framed, the consequences would be disastrous, so he had to clarify the facts and prove his innocence.

"Your Highness, you said...you said that if there were any in Concubine Chen's palace, it would be inevitable that someone would suspect Your Highness, and then...then let me take action in both places."

Xiao Xiazi still insisted that he was the mastermind behind the scenes, which made Ye Chen very angry.

Ever since his father was punished last time, Ye Chen has restrained himself a lot. Although he is a rogue, he will not be disrespectful to his mother.

Feng Xiuqi angrily scolded Xiao Xiazi, "You...what evidence do you have? If you don't have any evidence, you are slandering the royal family and you should be killed!"

Who would have thought that the small box would actually take out something, a jade. The jade was emerald green, warm and delicate, as gentle as a spring water; it was also like a veil under the moonlight, light and transparent.

Its surface is engraved with exquisite patterns, and the lines are smooth and natural, as if it was completed in one go. This city color can only be found in the royal family.

"This is the Second Prince's jade pendant, which he gave to our family as a reward! Prince, human life is at stake, you can't cross the river and burn the bridge!"

Ye Chen was so angry that he walked up to him and wanted to take a look at the jade. Unexpectedly, the small box seemed to be afraid of being snatched away. It kowtowed and begged for mercy, while hiding the box in its sleeves as if it was afraid that he would destroy it.

"How could it be?! Second brother, you...did you really give this jade pendant to the eunuch? If not, then take it out and show it to everyone. This...this is a jade pendant that can prove your royal identity."

Ye Yi looked at the man in shock, and took out a jade pendant from his waist. It looked like it was made of the same material as the man's, with the same texture and the same beautiful jade.

This... Of course Ye Yi couldn't take it out. He had given his jade to Concubine Yin a long time ago. He also promised her that as long as he could ascend the throne, he would make her a royal concubine.

Unexpectedly, she would have given this jade to this person... and used it to identify him? !

"It's... it's you!! You did it on purpose. She's yours?! When did you bribe her? Aren't you afraid that I will tell you everything you did?"

Ye Chen was furious. They had clearly agreed to settle the rumors first and then fight. Why did they start fighting like this?!

"Brother, what are you talking about? What did I do?! I don't understand why you say that!?"

Ye Yi looked innocent and looked at him in confusion, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

There was a hint of confusion and bewilderment in his eyes, and he seemed to have no idea what he had done wrong.

His brows were slightly furrowed and his lips were trembling slightly, as if he was trying hard to suppress his inner emotions.

His expression seemed very sincere, but in his heart he was secretly glad that he had excellent acting skills. He was also betting in his heart that he had no evidence to prove that thing.

At the same time, he also became a little wary of this second brother, thinking that this person was really difficult to deal with.

"If that's the case, then don't blame me. Back then, the one who poisoned the Queen Mother and Ayang was your so-called current Crown Prince!!"

Ye Chen said this without hesitation, and one thing after another came out. The ministers were so shocked that they lowered their heads and dared not speak.

"Brother, are you confused? I know you are angry, but you shouldn't be so angry as to slander your brother! At that time, I was still young, how could I have poisoned you?!"

Ye Yi was naturally determined not to admit it, but he couldn't believe it in his heart. How could he produce evidence? ? This was simply impossible. Apart from himself, he was sure that no one had ever obtained it.

The hall was so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard. Ye Lin watched him acting with a smile on his face. He still had patience and time.

With her slender fingers lightly resting on the fan handle, she glanced out the window. It should have started outside!

In the imperial city, the two sides of the imperial guards were on high alert. Both sides gathered near the Xihua Gate with swords drawn, and the atmosphere around them was somewhat tense.

Originally the two sides were living in peace, but for some unknown reason, suddenly a cold arrow acted like a fuse, instantly igniting the long-suppressed anger of both sides, and a fierce battle broke out.

The imperial guards on both sides drew their weapons, and for a moment, the flashes of swords and the shadows of sabers intersected, and shouts of killing rose and fell. They brandished their swords and slashed at the enemy, and blood splattered everywhere, staining the ground of the imperial city red with blood.

Outside of this melee, Yun Xirou watched them fight coldly. Lurking behind her were her Xiyi Guards and many of Ye Lin's private soldiers.

That’s right, she was the one who shot the hidden arrow. This is called sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers. No one knows how long the battle will last, but what is certain is that they will make the final move!

There was a bloodbath in the imperial city, the snow on the ground was dyed red, and the blood stained the palace! !

……

Half an hour later, many ministers in the hall lowered their heads, and dared not speak nonsense. Only a few people watched this farce, waiting to see how the net would end.

"You just think I can't produce evidence. Ha, what if I do have evidence?! Can you, a venomous snake, still slander me like this!?"

Ye Chen opened his eyes wide and stared at his brother who refused to acknowledge him. He shouted like a madman, "You were young back then, but your mother was not. You put the medicine in the cake. Now, isn't Madam Sun in the Queen Mother's Palace yours?!"

Who would be on guard against a young child? ! Therefore, the poison that a child accidentally puts is hard to guard against! ! It is because he was young at that time that he could enter and leave the Queen Mother's bedroom at will, and the food that passed through his hands would not be carefully checked! !

"You...you said he's mine, so he's mine?! You have no evidence, you...you're talking nonsense, your words are not enough, you...you don't need to be afraid!!"

Ye Yi couldn't sit still any longer. His voice became sharp and trembling, as if he had been poked in a sore spot. His face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat on his forehead kept rolling down, forming streams.

His eyes were fixed on the person in front of him, full of panic and fear. His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, as if this could make him feel a little relieved.

However, his body was shaking slightly uncontrollably, revealing his deep inner uneasiness and tension.

At this moment, Ye Yi's heart was full of contradictions and struggles. On the one hand, he tried to use a tough attitude to cover up his panic; on the other hand, he was worried that the other party really had solid evidence and put him to death.

This kind of psychological torture made it almost impossible for him to breathe. He could only hold on, hoping to find a breakthrough to escape this predicament.

"His words are nothing to be afraid of, but what about my words?! What? Do you think my words are also meant to frame you?!"

At some point, a woman's voice suddenly came from outside the hall. It was clear and pleasant, like the sound of a yellow oriole singing in a valley, but the tone was a little cold and majestic.

When everyone heard the voice and looked, they saw the woman in a riding suit, looking heroic and with a heroic look in her face.

Her steps are steady and powerful, and every step seems to step on people's heartstrings, shocking them.

As she approached, everyone felt a powerful aura.

"You...you...how could it be you!? Are you okay?? No, you...you are not stupid anymore!? Your illness is cured, this is...a great thing!!"

Ye Yi looked at the person who came in surprise. His palms were already covered with a thin layer of sweat and his heart was beating nervously.

"Good thing!? Haha... Wasn't it you who sent the drugged cakes to me and my grandmother?"

Ayang's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. He scanned everyone present, as if he could see through everything.

The corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a kind of confidence and pride.

At this moment, she is like a shining pearl, emitting dazzling light that cannot be ignored.

Princess Xuyang's daughter Ayang is not stupid, so the empress dowager is naturally pretending to be crazy. This grandparent and granddaughter have been pretending to be crazy for more than ten years. They are also tough characters.

In this case, A Yang personally came out to prove it, so Ye Yi naturally had no way to defend himself and he could only admit his guilt.

"Good! Good! Good! Shi Yubai, Young Master Ji, you...you are Ye Lin! Right? Hahahahaha, what a good strategy!"

Ye Yi suddenly laughed out loud, his laughter was full of anger and despair. There was a crazy light flashing in his eyes, as if he had lost his mind.

He pointed at Shi Yubai and said in a trembling voice, "Why didn't I think of that? You are actually Ye Lin! It turns out that everything was set up by you!"

Ye Yi's body began to tremble, he couldn't accept this fact.

The reason why he dared to jump out and step on Ye Chen today was because he had secretly written to Shi Yubai three days ago to ask if Ye Lin was dead? ! Is Young Master Ji Ye Lin?

Because Shi Yubai was the only clean person in the capital, and he was usually neutral, but he would never have thought... that he would be completely defeated because of this! !
