Quick Travel: Passing Through the Bloody World

Chapter 292 Becoming the sinister prince in martial arts literature 15

Concubine Qin came with the imperial edict, representing the will of Emperor Chengming.

Pei Qing gritted his teeth and knelt down with Ye Xu.

Concubine Qin waved her wide sleeves gracefully and walked forward with Censor Zheng behind her.

After Concubine Qin sat down, Xiao Shenyi nodded at her and walked to Pei Yu.

Pei Yu only felt his sleeve being pulled, and when he turned his head, he met Xiao Shenyi's eyes.

Xiao Shenyi lip-synced - what happened?

Pei Yu responded with a smile: "Everything is fine. You came at the right time."

Then, Pei Yu stretched out his hand from under his sleeve and gave Xiao Shenyi a thumbs up in the corner.

Xiao Shenyi laughed for a while, then coughed twice and stood beside Pei Yu with a serious expression.

Censor Zheng stroked his beard, glanced at Concubine Qin, and said in a loud voice: "Master Ye, on the day when the Eighth Prince was attacked, I heard that you had a dispute with the Eighth Prince over the school competition."

"Replying to the Imperial Censor, although I did compete with His Majesty the Eighth Prince during the competition, the winner and loser were already determined at the time of the competition. After I won, the school's chief wine teacher took me into the inner room for a talk and left half an hour later."

Ye Xu paused for a moment and continued, "The Eighth Prince's residence is only an incense stick's worth of distance from the school. I definitely don't have time to commit the crime! Please understand, censor!"

Censor Zheng nodded, then asked in return: "What does the Third Prince think?"

Pei Que smiled faintly upon hearing this and said, "Young Master Ye is a straightforward person. His admission to the academy was also handled by me. I know that he has a good character. And he has no grudges against my eighth brother. In my opinion, this matter should have nothing to do with Young Master Ye."

"The Third Prince has a discerning eye for talent. The person you value will certainly not disappoint your expectations. Before coming here, I have already sent people to investigate Mr. Ye's interpersonal relationships and financial transactions, and there is nothing wrong. Mr. Ye, you can get up now." said Censor Zheng.

After Ye Xu expressed his gratitude, he was helped to sit in the prepared seat.

Now that Ye Xu's grudge had been cleared, the only one still kneeling on the ground in the palace was the Fourth Prince Pei Qing.

Pei Qing clenched his fists and said, "Censor Zheng, since Master Ye has no grudges against me, what crime have I committed?"

"this……"

Censor Zheng set his sights on Concubine Qin.

Concubine Qin raised her eyebrows slightly: "Using evil magic to nourish the medicine man, isn't it a crime?"

Pei Qing looked up in shock and said in a cold voice: "My Lady, this is too harsh. Please think twice before speaking!"

"Think twice? When I was discussing the past and the present with Your Majesty, I never remembered that I needed to think twice... Why, Fourth Prince, do you think that what Your Majesty and I didn't need to do, you now have to do it for me!"

The fourth prince Pei Qing's muscles stiffened and he said, "...I dare not."

"If you don't dare, then kneel down and talk to me!"

"……yes."

Concubine Qin leaned back in her chair and looked up at Pei Yu.

Pei Yu raised the teacup and shook it, and Concubine Qin raised her eyebrows in understanding.

Concubine Qin: "Come here, bring the person up."

Soon, a figure was escorted into the hall, tied up. The man's body seemed to be soaked in ink, and the details of his facial features could not be seen clearly. Only a pair of blood-red eyes, like a wild beast in the mountains, flashed a deep and cold light.

When Pei Qing saw this man, shock flashed in his eyes.

Before Pei Qing could come up with a solution, Pei Yu had already spoken: "Why is this man wearing the jade pendant given by my fourth brother? I remember that this jade pendant was given by my fourth brother to County Magistrate He..."

"Your Highness, you are confused." Xiao Shenyi covered her mouth with a handkerchief, poked Pei Yu's cheek with a finger and said with a smile: "Isn't there a fire in Magistrate He's mansion? You told me that not even a dog could escape! I was so scared that I didn't even dare to put out the red candle."

Pei Yu raised his hand, held Xiao Shenyi's hand and placed it on his lap, shook his head and smiled, "Is this prince confused, or is the princess good at remembering? How can a dead person come back to life? This is not some evil magic."

The interaction between the two of them, with every frown and smile, makes them look like a loving couple.

But these words sound strange no matter how you listen to them.

The third prince Pei Que took a sip of tea calmly, lowered his eyes and ignored everything that happened in the palace.

Pei Qing: "..."

He naturally knew whether County Magistrate He was dead or not, and Pei Yu also knew it.

The raging fire was so huge and surrounded by so many secret guards that not even a fly could fly out.

Pei Qing knew that Pei Yu was moving his hands, and this was the effect he wanted.

This blame should have been put on Pei Yu.

But how come County Magistrate He didn’t die?

Or did Pei Yu foresee everything? !

Pei Yu's eyelashes drooped slightly, and he looked at Pei Qing who was kneeling on the ground for a moment.

At that glance, Pei Qing felt his entire body go cold.

I'm afraid that the plan of the medicine man to frame someone will be wasted before it can be implemented.

He might even get into trouble.

Zheng Yushi said: "Your Highness, the golden armored guards of His Majesty found Magistrate He in the animal training grounds while patrolling last night. When he was found, Magistrate He was already unconscious, but he was extremely brave and his martial arts skills were far better than usual. Judging from his appearance, he looked like a man who had been poisoned by a sorcerer.

This County Magistrate He...after all, he is related to you, Your Majesty, so His Majesty has relieved you of your duty of assisting in the investigation. I need to wait for the new investigation, so I have not informed you. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Pei Qing clenched his fists at his sides and said nothing.

Censor Zheng looked at Pei Yu again: "Seventh Prince, the matter of the drug man still needs to be investigated. This matter is temporarily related to you. What do you think..."

"Of course I am willing to cooperate with the censor's investigation." Pei Yu nodded.

Censor Zheng nodded: "Thank you very much, Your Highness."

This entry into the palace was unexpectedly smooth.

After that, it will be the job of the censors to investigate these matters. This matter will be investigated by Emperor Chengming's people. What will be the result...

It all depends on the luck of the Fourth Prince Pei Qing.

Before leaving the hall, Pei Yu happened to meet the third prince Pei Que who had just come out.

Pei Que looked at Pei Yu hesitantly and said, "I have just got some rouge from the Western Regions in my palace. My seventh brother is getting married, so it's a good opportunity for me to come to my brother's house to get some for my sister-in-law."

"Third brother, you are too polite. My princess doesn't like these." Pei Yu said.

Pei Que was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then I'll have to invite my sister-in-law and Ah Qing to chat in my house when I'm free. Ah Qing has always been curious about the scenery and customs of various places in Hanyun Continent."

Pei Yu: "If he is willing, then it's fine."

Xiao Shenyi heard Pei Yu's words and sneered: "Not long ago, you tried to assassinate me, and now you are offering me rouge and asking for a talk. Are your brothers not very smart?"

Pei Yu pinched his chin with his fingertips: "Maybe."

Xiao Shenyi asked back: "My Lord, your brother invited me to his palace, what did you do?"

"This king...I am here to ask you." Pei Yu said.

Xiao Shenyi: "What kind of answer is this?"

Pei Yu: "This is the answer."

Xiao Shenyi was stunned and saw two very small versions of himself in Pei Yu's eyes.

Xiao Shenyi's answer was the same as Pei Yu's answer.
