After rebirth, she became the prince's favorite

Yang Yufei's body was shaking violently. "But what about the Crown Prince forcing me to enter the forbidden area? I was wrong to cancel the engagement. I shouldn't have embarrassed the Crown Prince. I know I was wrong. Your Highness, please don't kill me. Please let me live. I will never dare to provoke you again."

Yao Mingjin hugged Yang Yufei, his face as cold as ice, "Your Highness, please give me an explanation for what happened today. Yufei has done nothing wrong to you, why did you kill her?"

Li Hexiong didn't expect that even after forcing her into Zhaoyang Palace, she could still escape death. He was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

"I didn't force her to enter Zhaoyang Palace, so don't bite people like a mad dog."

"Your Highness, please save these words for the Emperor to say. Zhaoyang Palace is far from the Imperial Kitchen, and she normally can't walk here. If it weren't for your Highness's people trying to drive her here, she would never come here."

Yao Mingjin picked up Yang Yufei by the waist.

There was a large bloodstain on the hem of her skirt and her shoes, some of which had already dried, and even her socks had no trace of their original color.

"When I came to look for Yufei, she fell outside the wall and did not enter Zhaoyang Palace. The eunuch also sent people to check inside the wall. I believe he already has the answer in his mind. Please ask the eunuch to testify for Yufei."

Yao Mingjin's face turned pale, "This matter will never be let go like this."

Instead of going to Ningshou Palace, they went directly to the Imperial Study.

Yang Yufei cried bitterly and knelt in front of the emperor. She told him everything about how the prince's followers wanted to murder her and drove her towards Zhaoyang Palace.

"I really did not enter the forbidden area. It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who went too far. I beg Your Majesty to see clearly."

The emperor's eyes fell on Eunuch Li and confirmed the true situation with him.

Eunuch Li shook his head, which confirmed the answer in the emperor's mind.

Since Yang Yufei did not enter his secret room and did not discover his secret, he had no worries.

"Don't cry, get up first, I already know what's going on."

Yang Yufei wiped her tears with a handkerchief and stood aside feeling aggrieved.

The emperor's tone towards her was a little gentler, but it was not the same towards Li Hexiong. His eyes were so sharp as if he wanted to kill him.

"You'd better explain to me why you want to hurt Yufei. Prince, the engagement has been cancelled, can't we just part ways amicably? Is it really fun to kill everyone?"

Li Hexiong's scalp tingled, but he still said, "I just wanted to scare her, but who knew she would be so frightened that she ran to Zhaoyang Palace."

What a bunch of losers under his command. Yang Yufei had clearly broken into Zhaoyang Palace, but they didn't find any trace at all?

But he couldn't insist that Yang Yufei had really entered the forbidden area, otherwise he would be accused of having ulterior motives.

Where did all the eunuchs and palace maids who were guarding Zhaoyang Palace go? How could no one notice such a large person breaking in?

How could the emperor not know what his son was thinking? He simply felt that after the engagement was cancelled, Yang Yufei was together with Yao Mingjin again, and he lost face, so he wanted to kill Yang Yufei.

A narrow-minded man who holds a grudge.

"Okay, that's enough of this matter. Prince, you must not cause trouble for Yu Fei in the future, otherwise, I will never let you off easily." The emperor warned sternly.

Li Hexiong lowered his head and replied "yes", and in his heart he cursed Yang Yufei's ancestors for eighteen generations.

Does this woman really have nine lives? How come she can't be killed by teasing?

"Yufei, the Queen Mother must miss you very much. You and Mingjin should go and keep her company. Don't let her worry about you." The Emperor said to her with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yang Yufei followed Yao Mingjin and retreated.

After they disappeared from view, the emperor took a teacup and smashed it hard on Li Hexiong's head.

With a bang, the teacup directly smashed a wound on Li Hexiong's forehead. Blood flowed out and the man couldn't help but groan in pain.

"Who told you to lead Yang Yufei to Zhaoyang Palace? Li Hexiong, you are so brave. You used the trick of borrowing a knife to kill someone very well. No matter what conflict there is between you and Yang Yufei, I don't care how to solve it, but you shouldn't use me, and you shouldn't let her almost break into the forbidden area."

The emperor's face turned pale, "If you dare to attack Zhaoyang Palace again, I will kill you!"

Li Hexiong's whole body was cold, and he was almost unable to breathe due to the strong murderous aura. He also caught the emperor's deep disgust.

A strong fear surged in his heart, and he knelt in front of the emperor, "Father, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have watched her hook up with Yao Mingjin. I hate her for making me lose face, so I want to kill her."

"Please calm down, Father. I will never dare to lead her to Zhaoyang Palace again."

He didn't even dare to argue, because he knew the emperor's temper too well. The more he argued, the worse his fate would be after the emperor found out.

It is even possible that my father will depose him from the position of crown prince and appoint another prince as the new crown prince.

Anyway, his father has many sons, so he, the crown prince, is not valuable.

"Go back, I don't want to see you now."

Li Hexiong immediately stood up and left the imperial study as quickly as possible, fearing that if he walked too slowly, the emperor would find an excuse to embarrass him.

"Let's go back to Jingxin Palace. I'm worried, so I'll check again."

Even though it was certain that Yang Yufei and Yao Mingjin had not broken into his secret room, otherwise they would have been poisoned to death by his poisonous smoke, the emperor was still worried that his secret would be leaked.

After returning to the Jingxin Palace, the emperor entered the secret passage again and checked carefully. Only when he found no corpse did he feel completely relieved.

In Ningshou Palace, Yao Mingjin and Yang Yufei tacitly did not mention what happened to her and accompanied the Queen Mother for lunch.

In the afternoon, Yang Yufei accompanied the empress dowager for a walk in the imperial garden. They did not leave the palace until it was almost dark.

Yao Mingjin sat with her in the carriage, holding his fiancée's hand and still feeling the chill on her fingertips.

"The danger is over. Don't be so scared."

Yang Yufei's eyes were filled with strong hatred. "I want to get rid of that bastard. I don't want to be controlled by him. I don't want to live like this anymore."

"He will soon be disliked by the Emperor and deposed from his position as Crown Prince. By then, he will be worse than a dog." Yao Mingjin was completely furious. He wanted to make sure that scumbag died without a burial place for anyone who dared to hurt his fiancée.

Yang Yufei was still shocked when she thought about everything in the secret room. She leaned close to Yao Mingjin's ear and whispered, "The woman in the picture is the Crown Princess Yide. Could it be that the Emperor and the Crown Princess have a relationship that cannot be seen in public?"

She saw the emperor's diary and love letters, which recorded how loving the emperor and the crown princess were, and how charming Xiao Chuchu was. It used all kinds of flattering words, as if the two were a sweet and loving couple.

Yao Mingjin's face was full of disgust. "How is it possible? The former crown prince and the crown princess had a good relationship. I have heard rumors among the nobles, and many people have said that they were deeply in love. So when Crown Prince Yide fell ill and died, the crown princess couldn't bear the pain of losing her husband, so she set herself on fire."

Yang Yufei was full of doubts. "If they were really in love, she wouldn't have set herself on fire and abandoned the baby in her belly. Or maybe there were some twists and turns we didn't know about. I don't believe a woman who loved her husband so much would be willing to give up an eight-month-old baby who could have survived if she was born."

Yao Mingjin covered her mouth and said, "Stop asking me. Do you want to die?"

"Since this is the emperor's secret, it means he doesn't want anyone to know. You'd better keep this to yourself. Fei'er, otherwise you will really lose your life."

Yang Yufei nodded solemnly, "I won't tell anyone. I didn't go anywhere today."

Yao Mingjin suddenly cried out in pain.

Yang Yufei's heart was in a knot. "What's wrong with you? Where are you injured?"

Yao Mingjin said lightly, "It's just a minor skin injury, don't worry."

"I don't believe it. Take off your clothes quickly and let me check your wound." Yang Yufei then realized that the man in front of her seemed to have a layer of gray on his face, which was different from his previous fair skin.
