The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

Ye Chuji frowned slightly and looked at him. After he finished speaking, he smiled and retorted:

"I think you have mistaken me for someone else. I am the crown prince of the Ye Kingdom. How could I do something as disobedient as raising private soldiers?"

"Impossible! Five years ago, you came to Fengcheng and found me. You said you wanted to raise troops in Fengcheng and asked me to look after them for you! And you..."

Yu Hai tried his best to make Ye Chuji "remember" these things, but was interrupted impatiently by Ye Lanfeng:

"I think you just want to use my prince as a scapegoat when the truth is revealed!"

Ye Chuji took the opportunity to bow and said, "Father, please understand!"

Yu Hai continued without giving up:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I have evidence!"

"What evidence?"

"I often write to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to report on Fengcheng's affairs. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must still have my letters!"

After hearing this, Ye Chuji took the initiative to say without waiting for Ye Lanfeng to speak:

"In that case, please ask your Majesty to send someone to search my palace yourself."

"To restore my son's innocence!"

Even though Ye Lanfeng was somewhat biased towards Ye Chuji, he still had to get to the bottom of the matter. Seeing Ye Chuji's active request, Ye Lanfeng immediately sent people to the East Palace.

Upon hearing that Ye Lanfeng had sent people to search the East Palace, Yu Hai finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he found evidence, he would not be afraid that Ye Chuji would deny it!

During the time of searching the Eastern Palace, Ye Chuji seemed relaxed and didn't look nervous at all. He even chatted with Ye Lanfeng from time to time, which made Hua Wuke feel a little uneasy.

After waiting for a long time, the people sent by Ye Lanfeng came back to report.

"Your Majesty, the search of the East Palace has been completed."

"how?"

The letters written to Ye Chuji contained some very important news. Yu Hai was sure that Ye Chuji would not destroy it, and he waited for the reply from the person with certainty.

"No suspicious letters were found!"

"Impossible!" Yu Hai retorted subconsciously in disbelief.

He looked at Ye Chuji and asked in an uncontrollable voice: "The troop roll call and the defense map, how could you possibly destroy such important things!"

Ye Chuji said calmly: "I don't know what you are talking about at all."

"you……"

Yu Hai wanted to argue, but was stopped by Ye Lanfeng: "That's enough, you are so bold that you dare to drag the prince to take the blame for you! I think you are really tired of living!"

Ye Lanfeng still felt guilty towards the Queen and Ye Chuji, and was still biased towards Ye Chuji. When he saw that no so-called letters from Yu Hai were found in the Eastern Palace, he immediately acknowledged Ye Chuji's innocence.

"Eighth brother, since you discovered this matter, I'll leave these people to you to deal with."

Upon hearing this arrangement, Ye Chuji's eyes flashed, but he quickly calmed down and let Ye Lanfeng make the arrangements.

After returning to the East Palace, Ye Chuji's expression changed immediately as he entered the palace. He swept everything at hand to the ground. The vases and teacups broke into pieces, and everyone in the palace was so scared that they dropped their work and knelt on the ground trembling.

"The flower is unstoppable! The night is not confused!"

Ye Chuji gritted his teeth and shouted out their names, his entire face turning red with rage.

"Don't be angry, Your Highness. At least we got the news in advance and have handled all the letters properly. When the storm has passed, the prince will have plenty of opportunities to make a comeback!"

Ye Chuji snorted coldly and said in a bad tone: "Make a comeback? How can you make a comeback? Fengcheng was wiped out by those two people!"

"Didn't Your Highness send the troop count and the defense map to the Princess for safekeeping? Wouldn't it be easy to set up a military camp with these two things?"

The Ye Kingdom is large, and many places are now located in desolate mountains and wilderness. The people are living a miserable life, and these people are the easiest to be tricked into becoming private soldiers.

Since there is no shortage of people and we have the defense map left behind, it is not difficult to rebuild the army.

Thinking of this, Ye Chuji's expression eased a little, and he said to a palace servant who was kneeling on the ground not far away and trembling slightly:

"Send someone to Jia Lan to get the things back for me."

Thinking that Ye Buhuo and the other two would definitely still have their eyes on him, Ye Chuji paused for a moment and changed his tone, "Forget it, let's go in a few days."

After returning to the palace, Hua Wu Ke gulped down the tea and said with a look of resentment:

"I didn't expect that this couldn't make Ye Chuji plead guilty!"

"There must be someone in Fengcheng who passed the news to Ye Chuji in advance."

Hua Wu Ke sighed, "Now that he has disposed of all the evidence, it will be difficult to prove that he is the mastermind behind the private soldiers."

Ye Buhuo shook his head and explained:

"The defense map contains some military tactics, which were discovered by those who practiced military training. It is impossible for Ye Chuji to deal with such an important thing."

"He must have transferred these letters somewhere."

In his previous life, Ye Chuji only regarded her as a pawn to control the Hua family army. Hua Wu Ke had no idea where Ye Chuji usually hid important things, and he could not come up with any answer after thinking hard for a long time.

Seeing Hua Wu Ke frowning and looking distressed, Ye Buhuo touched her head and said comfortingly:

"Don't worry, as long as the things are still there, we will have a chance to find them. Let's eat first, ok?"

In Fengcheng, Yu Hai did not pay much attention to them and just provided them with some simple meals. Hua Wu Ke really missed the food in the palace.

At night, Hua Wu Ke was lying on the bed in a daze, and suddenly she remembered that in her previous life, when she went to look for Ye Chuji, she happened to meet Jia Lan once outside the Yangxin Palace.

Out of courtesy, after accepting the greeting, she casually asked why she came to the palace.

Jia Lan smiled helplessly:

"The emperor still keeps his old habits. He always likes me to help him put some things away. After a while, he comes back to me. Look, I'm sending her something again today."

Hua Wu Ke didn't think much about it at that time. He just said a few irrelevant words and left.

Suddenly thinking of this scene at this moment, Hua Wu Ke immediately thought that Ye Chuji might have put the things in Jia Lan's Princess Mansion.

"I thought of it!"

Ye Buhuo opened his eyes, lowered his eyes to stare at Hua Wuke in his arms, and asked softly:

"how?"

Hua Wu Ke raised his head and looked at him, and said excitedly: "Ye Chuji hid the things in the Princess's Mansion!"

The Princess's Mansion is outside the palace. Even if Ye Lanfeng wants to search Ye Chuji's East Palace, he would not think of the Princess's Mansion outside the palace. Jia Lan is Ye Chuji's eldest sister and the person Ye Chuji trusts the most now.

"Okay, I'll send someone to investigate tomorrow."

After Ye Buhuo finished speaking, he lowered his head and gently touched Hua Wuke's eyes with his lips, forcing her to close her eyes.

"sleep now."
