After Lin Qingye and Nan Mingyu returned to their own yard, Nan Mingyu told her in detail what had happened today.

It turned out that Lin Shan had been summoned to the palace by imperial decree yesterday and had not returned yet.

Before dawn, Ying Xuetian took two other secret guards and went to inquire about Lin Shan's whereabouts.

Nan Minghua and Meng arrived more than an hour earlier than Lin Qing. As soon as Nan Minghua arrived, he brought people to capture Xiyun and Xihua.

Xihua and Xiyun's martial arts skills are not low, and the fact that Nan Minghua was able to capture them both alive shows that he came prepared this time.

After Xihua and Xiyun saw Yingyue coming back, they went out to look for Yingxue and the others with peace of mind.

Lin Qing also looked at Yingyue with confusion, and suddenly asked.

"Ayue'er, do you know why the emperor suddenly returned to the palace? Why was the hunting ground suddenly closed last night?"

After hearing this, Yingyue suddenly realized that she had not yet told Lin Qing about this.

Yingyue looked around nervously. Nan Mingyu noticed what Yingyue was thinking and spoke quickly.

"Don't worry. The servants in my courtyard are all family-born children. Their parents and her own indentures are in my hands. You can talk to me without worry if you have any questions."

Despite hearing what Nan Mingyu said, Yingyue was still a little worried and looked around again, then said to Cui Xi who was standing beside her.

"My dear Xier, how about you go and keep watch outside first? I'll tell you in private later. Okay? I don't trust others to keep watch over me."

Cui Xi, who was busy pouring tea, pouted her lips immediately after hearing this, then nodded helplessly.

"Well, you better speak faster. If it takes too long, I'll come in by myself."

After hearing this, Yingyue immediately smiled and praised Yingyue.

"I knew you were the best."

After Cui Xi went out and closed the door, Yingyue stood up and closed all the windows, then hooked her hand to signal Lin Qingye and Nan Mingyu to put their heads closer.

After following these operations, Lin Qing became even more curious and did as he was told.

Finally, after the three of them put their heads together and formed a circle, Yingyue slowly spoke.

"I heard that Concubine Yu reported the eldest prince and Princess Ping'an to the emperor..."

After hearing this, Lin Qing's eyes widened and he said in disbelief.

"Really?"

Seeing this, Yingyue asked with a suspicious look on his face.

"Miss? Didn't you tell me about this first? Why do you seem to know nothing about it?"

Lin Qing also immediately curled his lips.

"I was just guessing! Who would have thought I could guess it right? So you told Concubine Yu about it?"

After hearing this, Yingyue immediately shook her head.

"No, no, no...How would I know Concubine Yu? Concubine Yu reported it herself."

Lin Qing also became suspicious after hearing this. She was about to ask again, but Nan Mingyu beside her could no longer bear it and interrupted her.

"Wait a moment, before you discuss the issue, could you please make yourself clear?

You two have been talking so much, one after another, but how come I haven’t understood a single word you said?

What happened to the eldest prince and Princess Pingan?"

After listening to this, Lin Qing also glanced at Nan Mingyu, then took a deep breath and spoke to Nan Mingyu word by word.

"adultery……"

After hearing this, Nan Mingyu opened her mouth in shock, but she quickly reacted and immediately covered her mouth.

Lin Qingye ignored Nan Mingyu's reaction at this moment, and instead asked Yingyue again.

"Do you think this is a royal scandal? How did the emperor react when Concubine Yu reported such a shameful thing to the heir apparent?

Wouldn't such a person be punished by being beaten to death immediately? And how did Concubine Yu know about this? What evidence did she produce to convince the emperor?

Outsiders would not believe this, let alone the emperor. How ironclad of evidence must this be?

Did the eldest prince and Princess Ping'an admit it? They just need to deny it. After all, they are both heirs to the throne!

This Concubine Yu is an outsider. If the two of them refuse to acknowledge her, then Concubine Yu will be finished, right?"

Yingyue shook her head slightly after hearing this.

"I only know a little about this matter. I just heard that Concubine Yu dealt with the eldest prince in order to surrender to the queen."

Lin Qing couldn't help but frown after hearing this.

"This matter is really getting more and more mysterious, let's ignore it for now...

A Yue'er, you said that my father was suddenly summoned to the palace by the emperor. Could this be related to this matter?"

After hearing this, Yingyue thought about it seriously.

"I think this matter is most likely manipulated by your cheap uncle.

Miss, have you forgotten what I said to you that night?"

Nan Mingyu was still immersed in the melon he had just eaten, but when he heard Lin Qingye and Yingyue start discussing his brother Nan Minghua, he immediately came to his senses and asked.

"What happened to your uncle?"

Seeing that Nan Mingyu still cared so much about Nan Minghua, Lin Qing couldn't help feeling a little angry, so he spoke in an unhappy tone.

"Mother, why do you really treat him as my uncle? Look at what he did today, there is no trace of concern for family affection.

Let me not talk about what happened today for now, let me tell you, since you married into the Pingnan Marquis’ Mansion, has he ever come to see you once?

After more than ten years, it's hard to show up once, and I'll just grab you and make you kneel down."

After hearing Lin Qingye's slightly emotional words, Nan Mingyu knew that she must be a little angry at the moment, so she spoke quickly.

"It's not about whether I consider him your uncle or not, the reality is that he is your uncle.

After all, there is a hierarchy of seniority. I can't just call him by his name, right?

You kid, how come you come back like a man with gunpowder after going out?"

Lin Qing also heard it, but still looked at Nan Mingyu with an expressionless face.

"Mother, do you know why he appeared in our Pingnan Marquis Mansion today?"

In fact, Nan Mingyu also felt very confused and puzzled about this matter. She just shook her head suspiciously, waiting for Lin Qing to give her an answer.

Lin Qing also sighed slightly.

"That's because Shen wrote her a letter."

After Li Qingye said this, Nan Mingyu seemed even more confused.

"What does this have to do with the Shen family? Why am I getting more confused the more I listen?"

Yingyue couldn't help but explain at this moment.

“It’s a long story, but I saw it with my own eyes. Lin Qingyao secretly delivered a letter to the Duke in the middle of the night.

As for the content of the letter, I don't know. The reason why the young lady had this idea was that the Duke had never set foot in the Marquis' Mansion for more than ten years. After receiving the letter from Lin Qingyao yesterday, he immediately came to the door.

Don’t you think this is really strange?”
