The Dark and Foolish King: The Fierce and Crazy Concubine Has Infinite Strength
Chapter 177 Summoning Lu Xiuyuan and his wife
The Queen Mother has not been able to wake up since she fainted. After all, she is still his own mother, so Lu Shian had no choice but to stay by her bedside and take care of her.
Ye Qiandai had some free time and after thinking for a long time, she called Lu Xiuyuan and his wife into the palace.
After sending the servants away, Ye Qiandai personally poured tea for the two and said, "Thank you for coming. You must be thirsty after the bumpy journey. Please have some tea."
Lu Xiuyuan and his wife thanked him, and Xia Younan asked curiously, "Your Majesty, thank you for your courtesy. I wonder what important matter is it that you have called me and the prince here this time?"
She was quite surprised when she received the news from the palace. She had only met Ye Qiandai twice and was not very familiar with her. She did not expect that she would suddenly ask her and Lu Xiuyuan to enter the palace. She didn't know what was going on.
Ye Qiandai smiled warmly and asked in a friendly way, "Does it have to be something before I can summon you two to the palace? I'm new here and I don't have any friends here. I'm really lonely.
"Looking around, the princess is the most kind and friendly, so I want to invite the princess to the palace to talk. Will it not interfere with the princess and the prince's business?"
"That's not the case. We don't have anything important to do in the palace. Her Majesty can always call us to play when she's bored." Xia Younan responded politely.
Lu Xiuyuan didn't say anything, but played with the teacup in his hand thoughtfully.
Ha, he didn't believe that this woman would call them here for no reason. Ye Baijiang had just had an accident yesterday, and she had them summoned to the palace early this morning. It was probably related to this incident.
But why wasn't Lu Shian here? Was it just this woman who took the initiative? What did she want to do?
After the pleasantries, Ye Qiandai gradually got to the point and asked tentatively, "Ye Baijiang's accident yesterday must have been known to everyone. What do you two think about this?"
As expected. Lu Xiuyuan smiled knowingly and replied, "What else can I feel? Ye Baijiang has committed treason and collusion with the enemy twice, and even sent people to assassinate the emperor and the empress on the Lantern Festival. Even if he had ten lives, it would not be enough to kill him.
"It is only natural that the emperor will execute him in three days, which is what everyone wants."
To be honest, he was also surprised when he first heard the news. He didn't expect that Ye Baijiang was still so dishonest and actually hooked up with Ye Beimo and was caught.
Lu Shian did not show favoritism this time, which was considered tough. Very good, so that he would not dirty his hands in the future.
Ye Qiandai nodded and took a sip of tea from the cup. "Your Highness is right. Killing Ye Baijiang is what everyone wants. But... it seems that some people don't want him to die."
"Oh? Who?" Lu Xiuyuan asked with interest.
"Why was his crime exposed?" Ye Qiandai asked back.
"Write a letter to Ye Beimo..." Lu Xiuyuan stopped talking halfway, looked at her in surprise and asked, "You mean, Ye Beimo wants to win him over, so he won't let him die easily."
Ye Qiandai smiled brightly, "Your Majesty is smart."
A puzzled look appeared between Lu Xiuyuan's brows, and he asked curiously: "My queen, isn't Ye Beimo your royal brother?"
This woman was actually reminding him that Ye Beimo would cause trouble to Ye Baijiang.
She should know that once Ye Beimo is caught doing something to Ye Baijiang, Lu Shian will definitely not let Ye Beimo off easily, and may even implicate Zhu Jingguo.
Ye Qiandai is the princess of Zhujing Kingdom and the younger sister of Ye Beimo. How could she do such a thing?
Could it be... a trick?
Ye Qiandai raised her eyebrows and said bluntly, "Ye Beimo was indeed my royal brother before, but since I knew that he secretly wooed Ye Baijiang with the intention of harming Lingjiang Kingdom, I don't plan to have this royal brother anymore. As for the reason..."
Her expression became more serious. "I love the emperor. I won't allow anyone to do anything bad to him, including Ye Beimo!"
Lu Xiuyuan was stunned and couldn't help laughing. "Your Majesty has only been in the palace for a month. Can the feelings of a month be compared with those of blood relatives?"
"Your Highness, you... don't believe me?" Ye Qiandai frowned slightly.
"Your Highness should report this to the Emperor, not to me, right?"
Ye Qiandai pursed her lips and remained silent.
She had been thinking about telling the emperor, but then she thought again, it was her idea to guard the palace gate when the emperor lost the jade pendant yesterday, and she ended up intercepting Ye Baijiang's letter.
It was he who suggested investigating Ye Baijiang regarding the assassination on the Lantern Festival, and they actually found Ye Baijiang.
This is too many coincidences. The emperor is smart. If she creates another coincidence, he will definitely suspect her.
So she thought of Lu Xiuyuan and the others.
He knew that Lu Xiuyuan and Ye Baijiang had never gotten along, and Lu Xiuyuan was the one who most wanted to see Ye Baijiang die.
But unexpectedly, Lu Xiuyuan didn't believe her at all...
After a moment of silence, she reluctantly made up a far-fetched excuse, "Ye Baijiang is in trouble, the Queen Mother fainted and hasn't woken up yet, the Emperor is worried about state affairs on the one hand, and he has to show filial piety to the Queen Mother on the other hand, so he really can't do it in two places.
"I don't want to cause trouble to the emperor anymore, so I thought of the prince."
Lu Xiuyuan looked at her steadily, as if considering the credibility of this matter.
Her reasons were too far-fetched, but he really couldn't figure out her purpose.
Knowing that he didn't believe her, Ye Qiandai tried to persuade him again: "My Lord, I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, I have absolutely no intention of harming you. You have always been smart, but you haven't thought of the reason why I would harm you, have you?"
Lu Xiuyuan pondered for a moment, then asked, "You mean... Ye Beimo will hijack the prisoner van on the day of the execution?"
Ye Qiandai nodded, "That's right, Your Majesty, please be more careful then."
Lu Xiuyuan thought about it carefully and didn't feel any trap, so he nodded and said: "I know, thank you for your reminder. But your Majesty..."
He paused, and asked tentatively, "If I really encounter Ye Beimo hijacking a prisoner van, and he resists when I try to capture him, what should I do?"
Ye Qiandai's calm eyes showed murderous intent as she looked at him and said word by word: "Kill! No! Pardon!"
Lu Xiuyuan's heart skipped a beat, and his usually calm expression was now filled with disbelief.
What a vicious woman's heart! She asked him to kill his own brother without even blinking an eye.
Xia Younan was also shocked and couldn't help but exclaimed: "That's your brother."
Ye Qiandai smiled contemptuously and said indifferently: "I don't have a brother. They just treat me as a tool to be used. The only person I care about in this world is the emperor."
Xia Younan swallowed his saliva and looked at Lu Xiuyuan, both of them were shocked and confused.
After leaving Youlan Residence, Lu Xiuyuan and his wife strolled on the way out of the palace. Xia Younan asked, "Do you think what Ye Qiandai said is true or false? Will Ye Beimo really hijack the prisoner van?"
Lu Xiuyuan frowned and shook his head, "I don't know, but I can't think of her motive for deceiving me."
"Well, I can't think of any reason for her to lie to us, so what are you going to do?"
"There won't be any loss after all, just make preparations when that day comes. Ye Baijiang has lived long enough, and I will not allow anyone to stop him from meeting the King of Hell."
