The next day, in the court hall, the emperor's face was gloomy.

Before the ministers could submit their memorials, they saw a group of imperial guards rushing in.

The courtiers were shocked and asked, "Your Majesty, what does this mean?"

The emperor curled his lips, and his eyes swept across the bodies of many ministers, and finally landed on Ye Xuanchen, "My dear friends, don't be afraid. I believe you all heard that assassins came to the palace last night. The assassins of the royal family were those who killed the nine tribes. It's a serious crime. Now that the assassin has been hit by an arrow, I have ordered people to seal off the capital. The assassin will definitely not be able to escape from the capital."

"The Emperor won't suspect that we are assassins, right?"

"That's right! I am loyal to the Emperor. How dare I be disloyal? Please give me a clear warning from the Emperor!"

……

After hearing this, a few timid people quickly knelt down towards the emperor and begged for mercy.

"Now I have sent people from all over the capital to search. Although I trust you, but just in case, it is better to search. Please forgive me!"

As the emperor said this, the imperial guards below began to check.

I saw them rolling up the minister's sleeves in public.

Everyone felt their arms go cold, and they dared not speak out in anger.

Ye Xuanchen's face was filled with coldness, but the person in front of him didn't dare to take action.

Seeing this, the emperor yelled, "I asked you to check, what are you doing here?"

After hearing this, the man rolled up Ye Xuanchen's sleeves.

I saw a circle of gauze tied around Ye Xuanchen's right arm, with blood still oozing from it.

Seeing this, all the ministers were shocked.

"It's you! King Chu, I have always treated you well, why do you want to kill me?" The emperor was surprised and angry, and he slapped the table heavily with his big hand.

Ye Xuanchen raised his eyebrows, but there was no hint of panic on his face.

"It's just a wound. If I'm injured, I'm a traitor. This sounds a bit ridiculous!"

Ye Xuanchen snorted coldly and spoke out.

"Just as I was assassinated, King Chu was injured. How can such a coincidence happen in the world?" The emperor squinted his eyes reluctantly.

Ye Xuanchen met the emperor's eyes, and the two did not give in.

"Yes, Your Majesty, you didn't even identify the wound before you convicted King Chu. Isn't it a little too hasty?"

"It's better to test King Chu's injuries first!"

……

The ministers spoke for Ye Xuanchen one after another.

After hearing this, the emperor had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart and ordered to the imperial guards: "Okay, then I will follow what you said. When I find out the evidence, I will see how you continue to quibble!"

After saying that, he asked the imperial guards to go up and examine the injuries.

The gauze on Ye Xuanchen's arm was removed layer by layer, revealing the bloody wounds inside.

The emperor also called the imperial doctor early in the morning. After a careful inspection, the imperial doctor frowned and said to the emperor: "To inform the emperor, this prince's wound does not look like an arrow wound, but rather like a sharp blade wound." To.”

Hearing this, the emperor's face stiffened for a moment, and then he frowned, "How is this possible? Did you see it wrong?"

"Oh? Why does the emperor mean that he is sure that this matter was done by me?" Ye Xuanchen sneered and looked at the emperor with a leisurely look, as if he wanted to see through it.

The emperor immediately retorted, "What did the King of Chu say? It's just that at this very moment, I would rather believe it than not. I also want to be safe. King Chu should understand me, right?"

However, Ye Xuanchen did not answer his words. He watched the imperial doctor bandage his wounds and said coldly, "If the ministers hadn't begged for me, I would have been put in prison by the emperor, right?"

Seeing Ye Xuanchen say this, today's matter must not be let go easily.

The emperor secretly gritted his teeth, clenched the fists in his sleeves, and forced a smile on his face, "I did something wrong indeed, and I apologize to you."

Ye Xuanchen stared at the emperor intently, as if asking him: Where is your sincerity?

"It is my decree to give the King of Chu ten thousand taels of silver as an apology!" Seeing that all the ministers were staring at him, the emperor was forced to give Ye Xuanchen the reward under pressure.

After hearing this, Ye Xuanchen cupped his hands towards the emperor and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "The emperor is righteous!"

Ever since, the emperor wanted to take this opportunity to arrest Ye Xuanchen on a charge.

But he never thought that he would lose his wife and lose his troops.

The emperor was extremely angry.

After returning to the harem, he lost his temper again.

But Ye Xuanchen naturally didn't know this, and he didn't care.

After going to court, Ye Xuanchen hurried back to the palace. Shen Chenbi had been waiting in the palace early in the morning, with a bit of worry on his face.

Seeing that Ye Xuanchen's arm was replaced with new gauze and a lot of blood oozed out, Shen Chenbi frowned and said, "Is the emperor trying to embarrass you?"

"Don't worry, he can't produce any evidence at the moment. Even if he knows that I did it, there's nothing I can do." Ye Xuanchen sneered and replied.

A warm current flashed through Shen Chenbi's heart, and she felt very distressed at the same time.

"Why are you so stupid? You know the danger in the palace, but you still want to break into the palace alone!" Shen Chenbi's eyes turned red and she hugged Ye Xuanchen.

Ye Xuanchen touched Shen Chenbi's head and comforted her softly, "I have very few relatives, so I know what it's like to be lonely. I don't want you to lose your relatives like me!"

"I will be your relative from now on!" Shen Chenbi snuggled into Ye Xuanchen's arms and murmured softly.

Hearing what she said, Ye Xuanchen laughed, this time from the bottom of his heart.

"it is good!"

However, after this incident, Shen Chenbi knew the danger in the capital and was very worried about Chen Wan.

The emperor can attack Chen Sheng today, and he can also attack Chen Wan in the future.

Thinking of this, Shen Chenbi quickly persuaded Chen Sheng to take Chen Wan away with him.

Chen Sheng looked embarrassed, fearing that Chen Wan would not want to follow him.

Who would have thought that Shen Chenbi would directly drug Chen Wan.

At the moment, it's not up to Chen Wan whether he wants to or not.

Seeing this situation, Chen Sheng sighed and had no choice but to compromise.

After giving some instructions to Shen Chenbi, Chen Sheng dressed up in disguise and left the capital under the protection of secret guards.

Without worries, Shen Chenbi would not be constrained when doing things.

Knowing that the emperor had not succeeded, Zhaohua suddenly became anxious.

Impulsively, she rushed directly to the palace and lost her temper towards the emperor, "Father, you promised me that you would catch Brother Chen. How could you let him escape?"

It turned out that Zhaohua revealed Chen Sheng's visit to the capital to the emperor.

The emperor took the opportunity to intercept Chen Sheng, firstly for the whereabouts of the glazed stone, and secondly for the purpose of capturing Ye Xuanchen.

But I never thought that Ye Xuanchen was so vigilant that not only did he not get caught, but he also tricked him.

Thinking of this, the emperor had a headache, and the look on his face became a little colder.

But Zhaohua seemed to not understand and walked around in front of the emperor.
