Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

"If Your Highness the Prince of Chu has nothing else to do, please leave!"

Ling Feiyan had a cold expression on her face, and pointed towards the gate of the yard with her left hand, as if she was seeing someone off.

But when she raised her hand, Chu Ning saw the finger that was still bleeding from being pricked by the embroidery needle.

Chu Ning, who was still thinking about how to start, suddenly had his eyes light up and he immediately stepped forward and held Ling Feiyan's hand.

Ling Feiyan's face changed drastically, and she was about to shake him off, but Chu Ning took her left index finger and put it into his mouth.

Suddenly, a strange suction force came.

The body that wanted to refuse sent out signals of pleasure at this moment, and its delicate body trembled.

Seeing that Ling Feiyan did not refuse, Chu Ning pressed harder.

"You... let go!"

Ling Feiyan, who was weak all over and with a flushed face, could not bear the heat from her hands and tried to push Chu Ning away with her right hand.

But when she put her hand on Chu Ning, a heat came over her, making her already hot body even hotter!

Chu Ning sucked a little blood, turned his head and spit it out.

"Sister-in-law, don't think that the wound is small and it doesn't matter. If it's not treated properly, tetanus can be fatal!"

After saying that, Chu Ning put her fingers in her mouth again.

Ling Feiyan, who originally wanted to refuse, suddenly fell silent.

Although the wound was not serious, it seemed to be the first time someone cared about him.

Her father had no choice but to marry her to the prince for his career. After entering the palace, she met with her family less often and felt no care at all.

The prince, however, only wanted to ascend to the throne and didn't care about me, let alone show any concern.

I never thought that the person who cared about me was the person I hated the most.

Looking at Chu Ning who was sucking his fingers and spitting out blood, Ling Feiyan felt like his heart was hit hard by something!

For some reason, Ling Feiyan felt a tightness in her chest!

She had never felt this way before.

Ling Feiyan, who was in a daze, did not stop Chu Ning's intimate behavior and let Chu Ning wash the blood off her fingers.

"All right!"

Chu Ning wiped his mouth, put down Ling Feiyan's hand, and said with a smile: "Just bandage it again and it will be fine."

As he spoke, he picked up the embroidered handkerchief on the table beside him and wrapped the fingers of Ling Feiyan's hand.

Ling Feiyan, who was originally touched, suddenly changed her expression: "This is the handkerchief I spent half a month embroidering!"

Chu Ning: “…”

Who knew it would take you half a month to embroider this small handkerchief? If I knew, I would never have used the handkerchief to bandage you.

Chu Ning smirked, touched his nose, and said with a smile: "If the handkerchief is gone, I can embroider another one. A handkerchief is not as important as my sister-in-law's health."

Ling Feiyan, who was still bandaged by the handkerchief, fell silent again.

I once again felt the feeling of being cared for, and my heart was filled with mixed emotions.

If this concern came from her family or the prince, she would definitely be very happy.

But this was given by Chu Ning. She didn't know how she should feel, nor did she understand why Chu Ning suddenly cared about her.

Taking a deep breath, Ling Feiyan tried to calm herself down.

"Never mind, it's just a handkerchief!"

Ling Feiyan pretended to be back to her usual cold and indifferent look and said calmly: "Tell me, what exactly do you want to do with me today?"

She didn't believe that Chu Ning was looking for her just to convey the news that Princess Gaoping had been killed. There must be other purposes.

Chu Ning grinned: "This prince actually wants to investigate the whereabouts of the prince last night. The Crown Princess is in the East Palace, and she should be the one who knows the whereabouts of the prince best."

He is suspecting the prince!

Ling Feiyan frowned: "Why do you doubt the prince?"

Chu Ning shrugged: "Before the matter is investigated clearly, anyone could be the murderer, but the prince has the greatest influence and is the most likely person to have accomplished this, so I naturally suspect him first.

Furthermore, my reputation has been rising recently, and the prince is jealous of me and wants to frame me. This is also a motive for murder!

Sister-in-law, you only need to tell me the prince's whereabouts last night, and I will handle the rest."

These words made Ling Feiyan silent again.

Why did this bastard think he would provide him with the prince's whereabouts?

"Sister-in-law? Sister-in-law?"

Seeing that Ling Feiyan didn't say anything, Chu Ning couldn't help but wave his hand in front of her.

Ling Feiyan came back to her senses, glanced at Chu Ning, and snorted coldly: "Why should I tell you the whereabouts of the prince?

If, as you said, this was really done by the Crown Prince, wouldn't I be putting myself in danger if I provided him with his whereabouts?"

If the crown prince falls, one can imagine what will happen to the crown princess.

Although she was moved by Chu Ning's behavior today, Ling Feiyan would not be stupid enough to provide the whereabouts of the prince.

Chu Ning shrugged: "Well, since my sister-in-law said so, then I will pretend that I have never been here. However, if the murderer is not found within half a month, it will be me and Lord Ling who will suffer in the end!"

After saying that, Chu Ning turned and left.

Looking at Chu Ning's departing back, Ling Feiyan's face looked a little ugly.

After all, Chu Ning is the emperor's son. Even if the murderer is not found in the end, would the emperor be willing to let Chu Ning be a scapegoat?

If it were in the past, the answer would be yes.

But the Chu Ning now is not the Chu Ning of the past!

Chu Ning’s reputation is now at its peak, and he even makes facial masks to earn military pay for the soldiers on the front line.

If Chu Ning died, it would have a huge impact on the Great Chu Dynasty.

By then, after weighing the pros and cons, the emperor would most likely make his father a scapegoat.

Thinking of this, Ling Feiyan gritted her teeth and suddenly shouted, "Wait!"

Chu Ning, who had already walked to the gate of the yard, grinned, then turned around and put on a normal expression.

"Sister-in-law, do you have anything else to say?" Chu Ning asked knowingly.

Ling Feiyan glared at Chu Ning fiercely: "The prince returned to the East Palace with Zhao Wuji last night. The two stayed there for more than an hour."

The unexpected answer made Chu Ning raise his eyebrows, a little bit unbelievable.

I thought that this was most likely done by the prince, but I didn't expect that the prince was with Zhao Wuji last night, which ruled out the time when the prince committed the crime.

Although it is not known what the Crown Prince and Zhao Wuji discussed, at least in terms of time, the Crown Prince was unable to direct the murder last night.

Originally, I thought that the only person in Kyoto who could accomplish this, or the only one who had the courage to accomplish this, was the Crown Prince.

But now it seems that the murderer may be someone else!

But if it was someone else, who would it be?

Chu Ning's face looked a little ugly.

The emperor gave him only half a month to do so. Now there is no clue at all. Where should he find the murderer?

Thinking of this, Chu Ning sighed and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law, for telling me. I still need to investigate this case. I will take my leave first!"

After saying that, without waiting for Ling Feiyan to speak, Chu Ning turned around and left, with no intention of staying.

Ling Feiyan looked at Chu Ning's departing back in silence, her beautiful eyes moving around, unknown what she was thinking about.

Chu Ning, who had just left the East Palace, was preparing to return to the palace with a thoughtful look on his face. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the East Palace gate, he bumped into someone head-on.

"You are so blind that you dare to bump into me!"

The prince was in a good mood when he rushed back to the East Palace, but he was bumped into by someone for no reason. The prince immediately became furious and started cursing while covering his forehead.

But when he saw clearly that the person who bumped into him was Chu Ning, his heart immediately sank and his face changed drastically: "Eighteenth brother, what are you doing in the East Palace?"

I have been delayed outside for more than an hour. Could it be that Chu Ning came here to look for the Crown Princess?

At this moment, the prince felt like there was something green on his head, and anger instantly rushed to his forehead!
