After the divorce, the reborn emperor seduced me into his arms

Ying Zhu wanted to ruin her face!

Yan Qing's face was extremely cold.

She is now a divorced woman. If she is disfigured again, even if she has the support of her grandfather, I am afraid no one in the whole Kyoto will dare to marry her.

Is this his purpose?

Facing Yan Qing's questioning, the King of Qi did not deny it. Instead, he looked at Yan Qing in an unusual way, and said in a slightly cold voice: "Isn't it Miss Yan who should give the explanation?"

Yan Qing frowned: "I don't understand what the prince means."

Others don’t understand either.

Prince Jing was also bewildered. He kindly advised, "Second brother, everyone makes mistakes. You just made a mistake and almost hurt Miss Yan. Just apologize. Why bother with such a fuss..."

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!" King Qi glared at King Jing coldly.

He turned around and ordered behind him: "Bring the people up!"

Not long after, a guard appeared behind the crowd, escorting a maid. He stepped forward and slapped the maid on the shoulder. The maid staggered and fell among the crowd.

Qingluan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Because the maid was Gongsun Zhi.

But at this moment, Gongsun Zhi was covered in blood, especially her abdomen, where blood was still flowing down. Her hands were hanging on her shoulders in a twisted posture, and she was obviously suffering great torture.

Yan Qing's pupils suddenly contracted!

Win all!

This beast!

The King of Qi had been observing Yan Qing and clearly saw the changes in her facial expression. He thought that this woman was really heartless, but it turned out not to be the case.

As long as there is a weakness, it's easy to deal with.

At this time, the guard handed a flying knife to King Qi.

The King of Qi picked up the flying knife and said with a smile, "If I remember correctly, this is the weapon of Gongsun Zhi, the former owner of Fugui Casino, right?"

"What? It's Gongsun Zhi?"

Everyone in Kyoto knows about the three major gambling houses in the Twelve Districts.

Especially Gongsun Zhi from Fugui Casino, because she won against Changle and Anbao Casinos, she became the dream goddess in the eyes of many gambling-addicted young men.

Seeing the maid kneeling on the ground, many people were shocked.

"Why is Gongsun Zhi here?"

"Oh my God, what happened to her? It's so scary..."

The crowd was talking about what was going on.

The King of Qi approached Gongsun Zhi with a flying knife in hand, the sharp blade touching her face. He said seductively, "Gongsun Zhi, as far as I know, you have no grudge against the Prince Consort. Were you ordered to assassinate him today?"

"What? Gongsun Zhi assassinated the prince consort?"

"Why would she, a gambling house owner, kill the prince consort?"

"Didn't you hear what His Royal Highness Prince Qi said? She was ordered by someone, and when I entered the mansion just now, I saw that this woman came with Yan Qing..."

"So Yan Qing is planning to assassinate me..."

Everyone fell silent instantly and looked at Yan Qing in bewilderment.

This is exactly the effect the King of Qi wanted.

He had tried to show his goodwill to that old bastard Ye Zhennan, but that old bastard not only did not support him, he also scolded him.

He also showed goodwill to Yan Qing.

As a result, this woman, just like that old bastard Ye Zhennan, didn't give him any face at all.

Since he can't use it, destroy it all!

He was still worrying about how to deal with Ye Zhennan, but he didn't expect Yan Qing to give him the opportunity so soon.

It’s such a good thing that Lu Mingyue died!

As long as it is proven that Yan Qing assassinated Lu Mingyue, Ye Zhennan will no longer be able to stand idly by and remain neutral.

If he wants to save Yan Qing, he has to beg him!

And the entire Ye family army will become his possession!

The thought of gaining the support of the most powerful army of the Great Mercenary Army filled the King of Qi with excitement. He slashed Gongsun Zhi's cheek with the knife in his hand. He said in a half-threatening and half-seductive tone: "Gongsun Zhi, as long as you tell me who ordered you to do so, I will spare your life..."

"no!"

Before the King of Qi could finish his words, the eldest princess rushed over.

She glared at Gongsun Zhi lying on the ground like a madman: "Bitch, you dared to assassinate the prince consort? This princess will not let you go! Brother, kill her! I will peel off her skin and make it into a drum to report the news, and have people beat it every day!"

"Shut up!"

The King of Qi glanced at the Princess impatiently and said to the guard who had captured Gongsun Zhi, "Mo Dao, take the princess back to her bedroom."

"Yes."

The guard named Mo Dao suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the eldest princess, and dragged her away from the scene despite her resistance.

The guests were all stunned.

How could His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi treat the eldest princess like this?

Everyone's eyes changed when they looked at King Qi, and some of the timid ones even started to tremble!

The King of Qi continued to look at Gongsun Zhi, his expression extremely gentle: "Don't worry, my sister's words are not binding. As long as you tell me who ordered you, I will protect you..."

"Pooh!"

Gongsun Zhi suddenly spat at the King of Qi.

She looked at the hypocritical face of King Qi sarcastically: "Who said that Lu Mingyue and I have no hatred?"

She said viciously, "Lu Mingyue was so ungrateful and unfaithful. To climb up the social ladder, she murdered me and even tricked my parents into the mountains and pushed them off a cliff, leaving no trace of their bodies!"

Gongsun Zhi wept bitterly with every word: "He and I have a deep blood feud. It is only natural that I should kill him!"

This speech shocked everyone.

Did Lu Mingyue actually have a blood feud with Gongsun Zhi? And judging by what Gongsun Zhi said, it seemed to be related to the eldest princess?

The King of Qi subconsciously wanted to stop Gongsun Zhi.

"Why, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi wants to kill people to silence them?"

Yan Qing's voice rang out in time.

The King of Qi paused his grip on Gongsun Zhi's neck. He stared at Yan Qing with gloomy eyes, "Not only did this man kill the current imperial consort, he also slandered the eldest princess. Shouldn't he be killed?"

Yan Qing stepped forward, his attitude neither humble nor arrogant, not giving in at all: "Since this is a murder case, and the princess is implicated, why not ask the Ministry of Justice, the Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to jointly investigate the case? This will clear the name of the prince consort and the princess, right?"

The King of Qi narrowed his eyes and said, "What if I must kill her?"

"Then this general will have no choice but to ask the old man to go to the palace!"

Suddenly, a powerful voice sounded from behind the crowd. Everyone turned around and saw Ye Zulong suddenly appear in the princess's mansion with a team of Jinwu Guards.

The Jinwu Guards broke through the soldiers at the Princess's Mansion. Ye Zulong strode up to Yan Qing, sized her up, and then turned to look at Prince Qi. He said coldly, "My niece went to the Princess's Mansion for a banquet, but her maid mysteriously died. And it's related to the Prince Consort's death? My Qingqing cannot be involved in such a murder. No matter what, I must go before His Majesty and explain everything clearly!"
