After the engagement was called off, the senior sister of the sect took the initiative to consummate

Chapter 67: Is it pleading for mercy or throwing oneself into someone's arms?

With the sun high in the sky, Qin Yichen had entered a state of sage-like composure, remaining unmoved no matter how much Su Nianyao tried to provoke him.

Su Nianyao pouted and said with dissatisfaction, "Your Highness Prince Jin, you seem like a completely different person."

Qin Yichen said calmly, "You came here this time and served me so diligently. Is it to rescue your husband?"

Su Nianyao's eyes darted around, and she smiled slyly, "If I said no, would you believe me?"

Qin Yichen raised an eyebrow slightly, "Of course I don't believe it."

Su Nianyao gave a coquettish laugh and whispered close to Qin Yichen's ear, "Actually, I would rather be close to Your Highness. How could my husband compare to even a fraction of Your Highness's charm?"

Qin Yichen chuckled and grabbed Su Nianyao's delicate chin. "You woman are good at sweet talk and flattery. Don't think you can fool me with that."

“Every word I have said comes from the bottom of my heart, and there is not a single falsehood in it.”

Su Nianyao parted her lips slightly and said in a sweet voice, "Your Highness, you do not know, but my husband prefers men to women. How could I possibly have any feelings for him?"

Qin Yichen reached out and pulled Su Nianyao back into his arms. "If you truly care about me, then show some sincerity, such as collecting evidence of your husband's family's illegal and disorderly conduct."

Su Nianyao looked troubled, biting her lower lip and hesitating for a moment before slowly speaking: "Your Highness, I am just a woman and really don't know the details of this matter. However, I can stay at the Mei residence and collect evidence for Your Highness."

Qin Yichen's lips curled into a playful smile. "Alright, I'll trust you this once."

Just then, a maid's voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness Prince Jin, someone is looking for you in your residence."

Qin Yichen casually draped a long robe over his shoulders, glanced at Su Nianyao, and said, "Please wait here for a moment."

After saying that, he lowered the bed curtains, turned around, and opened the door.

The visitor was a servant from the Prince of Jin's residence, whom Qin Yichen vaguely remembered. "What do you want with me?"

The servant respectfully replied, "Your Highness, a woman who claims to be your senior sister came to the palace today. Steward Lin is unsure what to do with her, so he specially sent me to ask for your opinion."

Upon hearing this, a ripple appeared on Qin Yichen's originally calm face. "Senior sister? That's quite interesting. I just wonder which of my senior sisters will be coming?"

He smiled slightly and looked at the servant with great interest, "Tell me in detail what happened in the palace today."

"Yes!"

The servant respectfully responded and then recounted the entire story.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yichen couldn't help but sneer: "Feng Jiuge, how brainless do you have to be to think I'm still the same person?"

"They even dare to barge into the Prince's mansion; they're just all brawn and no brains, and they have no respect for anyone."

"You've come at the perfect time. It saves me the time and energy to look for you. It's time to settle old scores and new grudges."

After saying this, he turned around with a solemn expression and solemnly instructed the servant standing respectfully to the side: "Go to the Xianyang Prefectural Magistrate's office immediately and report that a disciple of a sect has trespassed into the Prince of Jin's residence and attempted to assassinate the current Prince of Jin."

Upon hearing this, the servant was startled and quickly nodded in agreement, promising to handle the matter properly.

Following that, Qin Yichen continued, "In addition, you should inform Ruoxi and have her personally handle the matter. Once the magistrate of Xianyang has detained that lawbreaker, he should immediately transfer him to the Ministry of Justice prison."

"As for the follow-up matters, I will arrange for the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice to liaise with them. Do you understand?"

The servant nodded repeatedly, assuring him again that he would follow his instructions, before hurrying away to carry out these two crucial tasks.

Watching the servant's departing figure, Qin Yichen revealed a satisfied smile.

Feng Jiu Ge, oh Feng Jiu Ge.

If there is a road to heaven, you will not take it; if there is no door to hell, you will throw yourself into it.

When you arrive at the Ministry of Justice prison, I will show you what it means to regret your actions.

Qin Yichen returned to his room, and Su Nianyao hurriedly went to greet him, "Your Highness, has something happened?"

Qin Yichen snorted coldly, "This is none of your business."

Su Nianyao wisely lowered her head.

At this moment, Qin Yichen was thinking to himself that if he really wanted to deal with the Mei family, he had to make good use of Su Nianyao as a pawn.

Su Nianyao, however, had her own plans. Although she wanted to gather evidence, she also wanted to protect herself and her family.

While the two were lost in their own thoughts, Su Nianyao suddenly looked up as if struck by inspiration and said, "Your Highness, I have thought of a way that might allow me to find out some information."

Qin Yichen looked at her with interest. "Tell me about it."

A calculating glint flashed in Su Nianyao's eyes as she slowly revealed her plan. Qin Yichen's lips curled up slightly upon hearing it, "If that's the case, it's worth a try."

……

"What are you doing?"

Inside the courtyard of Prince Jin's mansion, Feng Jiuge stood in a furious standoff with a group of soldiers, shouting, "I am Qin Yichen's third senior sister! How dare you arrest me?"

The leading officer said coldly, "No matter who you are, someone has reported to the authorities that you have trespassed into the Prince of Jin's residence and attempted to assassinate His Highness!"

"Please come with us. Once the investigation is complete, if it's a misunderstanding, we will give you justice!"

Feng Jiuge trembled with anger, "It must be Qin Yichen's doing! How could he be so ungrateful!"

But since she was under someone else's roof, she had no choice but to follow the soldiers.

On the other side, Su Nianyao had just returned to the Mei residence when she bumped into Mei Wenhua, who was about to leave.

Mei Wenhua's eyes widened. Seeing that no one was around, he pulled Su Nianyao to a secluded spot and questioned her sharply, "Did you go to the Ministry of Justice prison yesterday?"

Su Nianyao didn't hide this fact and nodded in acknowledgment, "My daughter-in-law did indeed go to the Ministry of Justice prison."

Mei Wenhua's eyes widened, and she demanded angrily, "You...did you give it to Qin Yichen?"

His voice trembled with anger, as if the question had been weighing on his mind for a long time.

Upon hearing this, Su Nianyao was taken aback at first, then a look of confusion and bewilderment appeared on her face, and she replied in a sweet voice, "Father-in-law, what are you saying?"

However, Mei Wenhua's anger did not subside because of Su Nianyao's doubts. Instead, he pressed her further, "Hmph! Stop pretending! Did you give yourself to Qin Yichen yesterday?"

He stared intently at Su Nianyao, as if trying to glean clues from her expression.

Su Nianyao said righteously, "How could my daughter-in-law do such a shameless thing?"

Her eyes were clear and innocent, making her look as if she had been wronged.

Zhang Wuji's mother was absolutely right: the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to lie.

Mei Wenhua squinted at Su Nianyao, clearly disbelieving. "Hmph! That's for the best. Then what were you doing in the Ministry of Justice prison? Why didn't you return all night?"

Su Nianyao hurriedly explained, "Your daughter-in-law wants to see if she can find any information that is beneficial to her husband, since His Highness Prince Jin now regards her husband as a thorn in his side."

"As for the daughter-in-law not returning home all night, that can also be explained. Yesterday, in order to rescue her husband as soon as possible, the daughter-in-law risked her life to confront the tiger and had a heart-to-heart talk with the Prince of Jin all night long."

It's true that we're speaking from the heart.

It's just a little special.

They really did talk all night long.

It was just that I woke up and cried all night.

Mei Wenhua's expression softened slightly. "Is that really so?"

"How could a daughter-in-law dare to deceive her father-in-law?"

Su Nianyao nodded vigorously, "Moreover, after yesterday's all-night talk, the Prince of Jin's intention to imprison my husband has lessened somewhat thanks to my efforts. If I go a few more times, I believe I can rescue my husband soon."

She said that as a pretext to see Qin Yichen.

Mei Wenhua naturally didn't believe her words, but he had been worn down by Madam Mei's antics these past few days.

If Su Nianyao can rescue her "good son," then it wouldn't matter if Su Nianyao really sacrificed herself to Qin Yichen.

At worst, we can just secretly deal with Su Nianyao after the deed is done.
