After calming down the anger in her heart, she pondered for a few seconds.

Why did Huangfu Liyue go to such lengths to design her?

If it was because of Qiao Lishan's matter, Huangfu Liyue would have no evidence at all.

After thinking about it, the queen could only think of one reason.

Feng Su deliberately murdered her before and was arrested.

I heard that Huangfu Liyue visited Feng Su at that time.

This woman, Feng Su, probably said some crazy things in front of Huangfu Liyue.

In this way, the Queen is not surprised.

It seems that Huangfu Liyue is taking revenge on her because of Feng Suying.

This time, she almost fell for Huangfu Liyue's tricks, but she was not sure that she would be so lucky next time.

She finally had a chance to stand up, but she couldn't let Huangfu Liyue ruin it.

We must find a way to completely get rid of Huangfu Liyue!

...

the next day.

Palace of Executions.

Mu Jingchen was being whipped.

His hands and feet were tied to the stone pillar of the execution place, and a guard with a rattan whip stood in front of him.

"Mr. Mu, you trespassed in the forbidden area. The king ordered you to be whipped. You are offended."

Mu Jingchen looked at the guards with rattan whips, nodded calmly.

"Please wait for a minute."

His gaze immediately fell on Huangfu Liyue who was standing aside.

He said in an orderly tone: "Turn your back, don't look."

Huangfu Liyue blinked her beautiful eyes, glanced at the rattan whip in the guard's hand, and slowly turned her back.

The next moment, the sound of rattan whips touching flesh reached her ears, piercing and shocking.

Although he didn't make any sound, every time he slapped her, her heart ached fiercely.

She also secretly swore in her heart that every whip, the queen will pay back ten times in the future!

She slowly closed her eyes, not daring to turn around to take a look.

As for Mu Jingchen, whose body was torn apart, he tried his best not to make a sound.

He looked at her tightly clenched hands, and slightly hooked his thin lips.

Seeing his indifference, the guards who executed the execution were extremely amazed.

No one can bear the feeling of being whipped by the cane.

He has seen too many people who were whipped, all of them were crying and howling.

Only Mu Jingchen remained calm as usual, as if he wasn't being whipped.

He didn't utter a word until the whipping was over.

The guard put away the rattan whip, looked at Mu Jingchen, who was covered in cold sweat, and lowered his head, "Mr. Mu, I've offended you."

"It's okay."

Although he hadn't yelled, his voice was obviously weak at the moment.

Immediately after the execution, the guards untied the ropes that bound his hands and feet.

If the cane whip hit him, if he was weak-willed, he would have passed out long ago.

No matter what, Mu Jingchen was still flesh and blood. After untying the rope, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.

The guard immediately supported him: "Mr. Mu, are you okay?"

Seeing that the execution was over, Huangfu Liyue hurried over.

Seeing his body covered in bruises, the clothes on his body were dilapidated and stained with blood, her heart was bleeding.

"I am fine."

He forced a smile and gave her a reassuring look.

Huangfu Liyue didn't speak, but bit her lower lip tightly.

She supported Mu Jingchen with one hand, and pressed on his pulse with the other.

Although these twenty lashes could not endanger his life, they were enough to seriously injure him.

Without saying a word, she supported him and walked out of the execution place step by step.

...

Chang'an Hall.

Huangfu Liyue had already found a reason to send the four children to Ji Lingxi's residence to visit Ji Lingxi.

When she brought Mu Jingchen back, the children were not there.

She helped him to the room, and immediately took out the ointment and medical kit that had been prepared.

She sat by the bed, ready to take off his clothes to give him a diagnosis and treatment.

But the hand that pinched the corner of his clothes suddenly stopped.

His torn clothes can be seen, his body is bloody.

Always bold, she didn't dare to open it to read.

Mu Jingchen looked at her trembling hands, and comforted her: "It's okay, I don't hurt, you see, there wasn't much blood at all."

Indeed, at first glance, there was not much blood.

Because today, he specially wore a suit of black.

The blood soaked his clothes, but it was hard to see with the naked eye.

Huangfu Liyue blinked fiercely a few times, endured the soreness in her heart, did not expose him, but said relaxedly: "I'm not afraid of your pain."

After finishing speaking, she lowered her head, cut off the clothes on his body with scissors, exposed the wound, and dealt with it carefully.

Although she didn't say a word, he could tell that she was definitely not feeling well.

At this moment, he wondered in his heart whether he did something wrong in refusing the king's reward.

He has never wanted to get involved in the royal family, he just wants to be an unfettered entrepreneur, isn't he wrong?

She is already the princess of the royal family, and she is destined to be closely connected with the royal family in her life.

As her husband, shouldn't he also step into the royal family side by side with her and occupy a place in the royal power?

Otherwise, if he encounters the same thing as this time again, he will have no right to speak and can only bear it, but will not be able to protect her.

At this moment, his eyes stayed on the dragon pattern jade finger on the thumb.

Perhaps, what he has been unwilling to face, he still has to face after all.

...

After treating his wound well, Huangfu Liyue told him to rest well and left the room alone.

At the door of the room, Feng Su was standing there.

Seeing Huangfu Liyue going out, she stepped forward a little worried.

"Liyue, how is Jingchen's injury?"

Huangfu Liyue lowered her eyes and said, "It's a bit serious, and I need to cultivate for a while."

With that said, she walked downstairs relentlessly.

Feng Su followed, followed her to the hall and sat down.

"Liyue, why did you go to the underground palace last night?"

Huangfu Liyue picked up the water glass on the table and brought it to her lips.

"Because we found out that the queen left the hospital late at night and went to the underground palace, we wanted to see what the queen wanted to do."

Feng Su's pupils shrank slightly, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Huangfu Liyue was a little upset, didn't pay attention to her face, and continued: "We told the matter to the father, the father opened the underground palace and took us to find the queen, but the strange thing is that there is no queen in the underground palace. figure."

Hearing this, Feng Su's face looked very calm.

Seeing that she was silent, Huangfu Liyue noticed her expression.

If other people hear these words, they will feel too weird.

But my aunt didn't respond.

"Aunt, you don't seem to find it strange at all?"

Feng Su forced a smile and nodded.

"Yes, I heard about this underground palace earlier when I was your mother's maid.

I heard that the underground palace was designed by an old man who specializes in researching institutions. Not only the entrance, but also the inside of the underground palace has mysteries. "

Huangfu Liyue became interested, and immediately asked: "Auntie, do you know any secret passages or mechanisms inside this underground palace?"

Feng Su shook her head.

"This underground palace belongs to your Huangfu's family. How could my aunt know that the mystery of this underground palace is only known to your father and king."
