Upon hearing this, Prince Rong closed his eyes slightly and sighed softly: "I am also forced to do this. If you believe that I am the host, then I can only accept it."

"Shameless!" Yu Yao couldn't help but curse after hearing this.

She was trying to calm herself down in the room, but she didn't expect someone to suddenly break in and forcefully bring her here.

At first, she thought that there was a conflict with Chen Xiyun and she wanted to give an explanation. She didn't expect that Prince Rong would shamelessly occupy the general's mansion.

She was both shocked and terrified, but she thought that Chen Xiyun and the others had already been arranged to go out, and should now be protected by Ye Xuan's men.

She tried to take a deep breath, suppress her uneasy feeling, and prepare to act according to the circumstances.

She never expected that just as she had adjusted her mood, Chen Xiyun was brought in.

Seeing her miserable appearance, Yu Yao felt distressed.

"You have no right to speak here." Prince Rong's voice was light and light.

Zhao Yan, like his most loyal thug, immediately came in front of Yu Yao and knocked her to the ground with a slap.

Chen Xiyun exclaimed: "Yu Yao!"

Seeing Yu Yao lying on the ground for a long time, Chen Xiyun knew that Zhao Yan had used all his strength in this palm strike and Yu Yao was seriously injured.

She glared at Prince Rong with hatred, gritting her teeth and said, "She is my eldest brother's concubine and my sister-in-law. You bully her like this, do you want everyone in the world to know that you not only occupy the general's mansion, but also bully the weak?"

Prince Rong opened his eyes, looked at Chen Xiyun with cold eyes, and chuckled: "What do you mean I occupy the general's mansion? I was obviously worried that someone outside would hurt you, so I deliberately dragged my sick body to protect you!"

What is shameless? Chen Xiyun thought that Chen Mingyue's family had taken her family's property without any hesitation and forced her father to recognize his ancestral roots, which was extremely shameless. She didn't expect that Prince Rong would refresh her understanding of shamelessness.

"Shameless." Chen Xiyun was angry for a long time, his mind was a mess, and finally he squeezed out these words after a long time.

Although she thought of more insults, she felt that none of them could describe Prince Rong.

"Xiyun, don't be angry." Yu Yao had only been beaten after her father died and her mother remarried, but she had never been beaten before or when she was in the general's mansion.

Now feeling the pain of being beaten again, Yu Yao's heart was filled with hatred, but she did not show it on her face. She just calmly comforted Chen Xiyun, not letting her anger get the better of her.

Chen Xiyun listened to her and immediately suppressed her anger.

"A concubine has such a great influence on you. It seems that Wan Shufang is not a qualified mistress." Prince Rong said calmly.

His tone was quite contemptuous, as if he looked down on Chen Xiyun for listening to Yu Yao's words.

Chen Xiyun's face darkened, and Yu Yao gently tugged at her sleeve, signaling her not to argue with Prince Rong about this matter.

Prince Rong no longer pretended to be sick, and it was obvious that he was going to reveal his true intentions.

If Chen Xiyun argued with him, it would only anger him, and no one could predict what the outcome would be for them.

In order to stay alive and to find out what Prince Rong is up to, Yu Yao decides to act according to circumstances.

When Chen Xiyun came to her senses, she understood what she meant and shuddered suddenly.

Although they knew that Prince Rong was pretending, outsiders didn't know it. After all, Prince Rong's reputation as a sickly person had spread throughout Dajing.

The emperor was also very worried about his illness. Now Prince Rong decided not to pretend anymore, and that was only in the general's mansion.

If they seized on this matter and accused Prince Rong of deceiving the emperor, and Prince Rong cried thief, wouldn't they be accused of false accusation?

Moreover, Prince Rong was pretending to be sick well before, so why did he suddenly stop pretending? Could it be that something big happened outside that made him feel a great sense of crisis?

If that was the case, why didn't he just go back to Prince Rong's Mansion, but instead tried to occupy the General's Mansion? Could it be that he was afraid of the emperor? Or was he afraid that the emperor would find an excuse to punish him?

Chen Xiyun's mind raced and a lot of ideas came to mind, and his expression turned ugly.

Prince Rong has big ambitions, so she has to deal with him carefully. Otherwise, the General's Mansion will be dragged into the gutter by Prince Rong and will never be able to recover.

"Your Highness Prince Rong, although His Majesty is busy with the Queen's affairs, he has not forgotten you."

Chen Xiyun said this tentatively, his eyes fixed on Prince Rong, wanting to see his reaction.

Prince Rong caught her gaze and said bluntly, "When the emperor says he hasn't forgotten me, does he mean he wants me to guard the body of a traitor?"

"Who is Xu Qinglu? Who am I? The emperor is clearly insulting me by doing this."

"It's a pity that the emperor has such a tough attitude. Even if I'm sick at home, he still wants me to stay in the general's mansion."

"What virtue has Xu Qinglu possessed? The most infuriating thing is that I pretended to be seriously ill to avoid keeping vigil for her, but Chen Changli insisted on mentioning her in front of me."

After saying what he had been holding back for a long time, Prince Rong's pale face suddenly turned redder, because he was angry.

It was because in his eyes, Xu Qinglu was just a meaningless traitor. Even if his father had a past with the Xu family, that was all history. What did it have to do with him?

The emperor used his father's affairs to force him, which was clearly intended to disgust him.

The reason why Prince Rong endured for such a long time was that he felt that Xu Qinglu's affairs would not implicate him. He was also happy to show off in front of the emperor and dispel his suspicion of him.

After the 'opium' incident, Prince Rong no longer thought so.

He began to suspect that the Emperor would condone Princess An Qing and the Crown Princess to attack the Queen because he suspected himself.

As soon as the Queen died, Princess An Qing's plan was shelved, but the Emperor took advantage of the Queen's death to eliminate dissidents.

The Queen's funeral was so grand, perhaps the Emperor felt guilty and did this as a way of compensation.

"Chen Changming clearly guessed that the emperor was sharpening his knife to me, but he didn't remind me. Instead, he stood on the emperor's side. Now he has been poisoned and is unconscious. This is retribution."

Prince Rong tried hard to suppress his disgust for Chen Changli and spoke to Chen Xiyun with a smile.

"What happened to my dad?"

Prince Rong had said some nonsense before, but Chen Xiyun didn't take it to heart at all.

When he mentioned Chen Changli, Chen Xiyun immediately pricked up his ears and listened.

Upon hearing that Chen Changli had been poisoned and was unconscious, Chen Xiyun was so frightened that her heart seemed to jump out of her chest.

"Chen Changli won't live for many days. Now, apart from your mother, you have no other elders to rely on." Prince Rong's words were full of malice.

Chen Xiyun ignored his malicious intent and said angrily, "My father is a lucky man, nothing will happen to him, don't exaggerate here."

Prince Rong said sarcastically, "I reminded you with good intentions, why don't you appreciate it?"

"Kindness? I think you just want me to lose my composure so that you can use me to threaten my parents." Chen Xiyun wanted to spit at him.

How thick-skinned is this person? How could he say such shameless words?
