Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

Xu Xingyin spoke up for Yang Mingxue in front of Xiao Lu only out of consideration for the overall situation, but now that there was no one else around, Xu Xingyin was too disdainful to put on a good face.

Her face fell and she walked ahead in silence with her hands folded.

Jing Zhichen was also in a bad mood, and he didn't want to give Yang Mingxue a chance to talk again, so he didn't say anything.

The young couple in the Eastern Palace were very silent along the way, making the moonlight inside the palace walls seem even colder.

As they walked along, even Concubine Lian, who was usually so composed, felt a little nervous and wished she could return to her palace immediately to have some peace and quiet.

Who would have thought that after finally arriving at the Handan Palace, Concubine Lian was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Yang Mingxue, who had been keeping her head down and silent, suddenly spoke.

"Xu Xingyin." she called.

She didn't call her the Crown Princess, but instead addressed her by her name, Xu Xingyin.

Not to mention Concubine Lian, even Jing Zhichen frowned in surprise.

If Xu Xingyin really wanted to make a fuss, he could just charge Yang Mingxue with disrespect.

Xu Xingyin raised his eyebrows nonchalantly, "What advice do you have for me, Madam Sha?"

When Yang Mingxue heard Xu Xingyin's response, she suddenly laughed and then said.

"I lost. If our identities were reversed, I would definitely punish you for your disrespect."

Xu Xingyin was also very frank and spread his hands, "The time has not come yet."

"I don't care about that. As long as there is a chance, I will do everything I can to eliminate the threat that covets the person I love."

After hearing so many pretentious words from Yang Mingxue, Xu Xingyin was a little surprised to hear her speak so frankly for the first time.

"It's late. If Madam Sha has nothing important to do, I will take my husband home."

Surprisingly, Xu Xingyin also came straight to the point and showed his affection.

If it were in the past, Yang Mingxue would definitely not give Xu Xingyin a good look after hearing this.

But now, she replied with a chuckle.

"A cup of tea won't affect your newlywed life."

Xu Xingyin raised his eyebrows without comment, and the meaning of "you continue" was obvious.

Yang Mingxue took a deep breath, then looked up at Xu Xingyin and suddenly bowed deeply.

"This is to apologize to you, Xu Xingyin."

After that, Yang Mingxue kowtowed and performed three kneeling ceremonies.

"This is an apology to the Crown Princess."

Xu Xingyin frowned, but did not reach out to help Yang Mingxue. He just lowered his eyes and looked at her quietly.

After a pause, he spoke at the right time, giving Yang Mingxue some response.

"What does Madam Sha mean by this?"

Yang Mingxue then slowly stood up, looked at Xu Xingyin, and spoke.

"I know that what I said when I stopped the car that day has caused you a lot of trouble. In fact, His Highness goes out on the 15th of every month because he has fixed things to do. I just knew this habit, so I deliberately lied to you. I said I was pregnant, but it was also false. I just wanted to instigate discord between you and your wife. As for those vows of love and sweet love, they are all fictitious. His Highness and I have always been one-sided."

When Yang Mingxue said this, she could no longer maintain the indifference on her face, and tears fell like beads from a broken string.

Jing Zhichen and Lian Fei both had expressions of shock on their faces, with mixed feelings in their hearts.

They all knew that Yang Mingxue had some inappropriate thoughts about Jing Zhichen, but they never thought that Yang Mingxue had done so many bad things to Xu Xingyin behind his back.

As Jing Zhichen's legitimate wife, it was natural for Xu Xingyin to dislike Yang Mingxue.

Jing Zhichen had already investigated Yang Mingxue today and had some guesses in his mind, but now that he heard Yang Mingxue say it herself, he had a different feeling.

It’s no wonder that the usually tough little girl would cry and ask for a divorce from me.

It turned out that in a place where he couldn't see, Xu Xingyin had endured so much silently. He had thought...

I am a qualified husband.

Thinking of this, Jing Zhichen felt an indescribable sense of guilt and self-blame in his heart.

Therefore, the Crown Prince, who had always been self-possessed, no longer cared about whether it was appropriate or not, and subconsciously stood in front of Xu Xingyin.

Afterwards, he bowed and saluted to Concubine Lian as a junior.

"Aunt, it's time to make clear the secret that has been bothering us for more than ten years. I... don't want Jiaojiao to be hurt again because of me."

Lian Fei couldn't remember how many years it had been since Jing Zhichen called her aunt. When she heard this name again, her eyes immediately turned red.

Then, Concubine Lian turned her head to look at Yang Mingxue and sighed in disappointment.

She originally thought that Yang Mingxue was confused in the past because she was blinded by love, but she didn't expect that there were still so many unknowns for her.

Some things really can't continue to develop in this way!

Concubine Lian took a step back, revealing the palace gate behind her.

"Now that you're here, Your Highness, Crown Prince, Crown Princess, why don't you go in and have a bowl of calming soup before leaving."

Jing Zhichen knew that Concubine Lian had agreed.

"Then it's Madam Lao Lian."

After agreeing, Jing Zhichen took Xu Xingyin's hand and entered the Handan Palace first.

Jing Zhichen and Lian Fei's riddles left Xu Xingyin completely confused.

She followed Jing Zhichen into the Handan Palace in a daze. She opened her mouth to ask something, but was blocked by a piece of chestnut cake that Jing Zhichen took out from somewhere.

"I've been busy for most of the day, let me take a break first."

The chestnut cake in my mouth is still a little warm, and the taste is almost the same as that of freshly baked ones.

Xu Xingyin was a little surprised and muttered.

“It’s still hot?”

Jing Zhichen chuckled and scratched her nose, "I know you're greedy, I just bought it before entering the palace."

"You have a heart."

Xu Xingyin responded coquettishly, and sat down in the main hall with Jing Zhichen after playing and joking all the way.

Seeing such love, Yang Mingxue felt even more depressed.

But no one present tried to comfort her.

Even Concubine Lian, who had always treated her well, just looked on coldly and then walked to the young couple of the East Palace.

Suddenly, he knelt down!

"Empress Lian?"

"aunt?"

Lian Fei's move startled not only Xu Xingyin but even Jing Zhichen so much that he jumped up from his chair.

The couple both reached out to hold Concubine Lian, trying to help her up, but Concubine Lian shook her head and rejected their kindness.

"I'm kneeling here not to apologize for myself, but to apologize for my disappointing daughter. Mingxue...she really went too far!"

After Lian Fei finished saying this, Xu Xingyin's mind was completely frozen.

Yang Mingxue, the daughter of Concubine Lian?

Obviously, Yang Mingxue herself widened her eyes in shock.

But Jing Zhichen just sighed, obviously knowing this.

It took Xu Xingyin a long while to find his voice again, "Yang Mingxue is your daughter?"

"Yes."

Concubine Lian nodded, and then she slowly told the story of the past that she had deliberately kept secret from her heart.
