Chapter 72 - 72 - The Empress Calm down
Allowing Mo Ling to leave the Crown Prince Palace, Zhou Ting Fang had already decided to let the Zhou Family clansmen deal with Mo Ling.
His top priority right now was to get rid of the two women from Mo Family.
Zhou Ting Fang looked at Mo Ling Si and Mo Ling Yao who were inside the carriage with hatred.
"Drag him down." Zhou Ting Fang ordered coldly. Mo Ling Si and Mo Ling Yao were dragged out of the carriage.
Mo Ling Si looked at Zhou Ting Fang in fear, her mouth wide open, yet unable to say a single word.
Dragged into a secret room in the Crown Prince's Palace, Mo Ling Si and Mo Ling Yao began their nightmarish life.
After standing on the rooftop for a while, Mo Ling was no longer in the mood to continue watching.
She ordered for Mo Ling Si and Mo Ling Yao's clothes to be stripped off, and then used a soldering iron to crazily wreak havoc on their bodies …
In less than an hour, Mo Ling Si and Mo Ling Yao had completely changed.
Mo Ling did not sympathize with them at all. If they did not intend to harm her, Mo Ling would not have interfered.
Everything was because they had brought it upon themselves!
The palace at night was cold and serene, shrouded in darkness.
Borrowing the gentle moonlight, one could vaguely see glazed tiles, flying dragons roof, fake mountains, amber pavilions, everywhere, showing off the magnificence and elegance.
Cheng Fei Yan sat in the main seat, dressed in a red and gold phoenix robe, causing her skin to become even whiter and brighter. Under her long and slender eyebrows, there was a pair of phoenix eyes brimming with anger, as she glared sternly at the person in front of her.
Ever since Yin Xuan Miao entered the palace, he had been kneeling on the ground. Several hours had passed and his knees were numb from the pain.
A stately seven feet man was actually trembling in fear under Cheng Fei Yan's gaze.
To this day, he was in chaos.
Regarding the matter of Feng Yue with Mo Family's sister, and the matter of Flowerfruit's assassin, he was completely unaware. Cheng Fei Yan did not say anything, and did not dare to speak.
"This is great, you have shamed the imperial family by publicly doing such a thing!" Cheng Fei Yan reprimanded Yin Xuan Miao, "As your Crown Prince, you actually don't know your place, it's fine if you don't want to be your Crown Prince!"
Hearing that, Yin Xuan Miao's body shook, and he looked up at Cheng Fei Yan in fear, "Imperial Mother, please calm your anger, this son knows his wrongs!"
With great difficulty, Yin Xuan Miao finally sat on the Crown Prince's seat, how could he be willing to let go so easily.
Seeing that, a trace of disgust flashed past Cheng Fei Yan's eyes, how could she have such a useless son!
"If you don't handle this matter well, I will cripple your position in the Crown Prince. In these few days, stay in the Crown Prince Palace and reflect on it. You are not allowed to go out without my order!" As Cheng Fei Yan said this, she had other plans in mind.
The matter of annexation between the Crown Prince and others was not as important as the matter of the Flowerfruit, she could not cripple Yin Xuan Miao yet, so there was no use in keeping the chess piece.
Even if he was his own son, he could still sacrifice himself in front of his own rights.
Cheng Fei Yan's phoenix eyes were filled with determination, and after a short pause on Yin Xuan Miao's body, she shifted her gaze elsewhere.
"Send Crown Prince back to his residence." Cheng Fei Yan instructed, "No one is allowed to enter or leave the Crown Prince Palace as you please.
Yin Xuan Miao wanted to refute him, but he was frightened by Cheng Fei Yan's cold gaze. His entire body went limp on the ground as he allowed the guards to drag him away.
After meeting with Yin Xuan Miao for a while, Cheng Ji Zhong quickly walked in. Before he had time to greet Cheng Fei Yan, he told him the details of his investigation.
Once this matter had been revealed, everyone suspected that Cheng Fei Yan had done it. In just a few short hours, it had already caused a huge uproar in the capital.
Everyone in the Yin royal family felt themselves to be in danger, all the ministers of the imperial court were terrified.
Especially the matter of the assassin protecting Yin Xuan Miao, unconsciously confirmed everyone's guesses.
As for the jade pendant that symbolized Cheng Fei Yan on the assassin's body, it gave everyone a hint.
Cheng Fei Yan wanted to destroy the entire Yin royal family!
"How preposterous! You've actually set your sights on me. Investigate this matter thoroughly and uncover the mastermind! "
Cheng Fei Yan's voice gradually rose as she roared. Her eyebrows knitted, her face flushed, the veins on her forehead bulged, and her slender fingers clenched into fists.
She had never been so angry before. The anger in her heart was overflowing as if it could ignite her at any moment.
"No matter who it is, who dares to frame me like this, I will dismember his body into ten thousand pieces!"
"Empress, there are only you and this humble subject here. You might as well tell this humble subject directly how to take care of the aftermath."
Cheng Ji Zhong said. He wanted to believe that the assassination attempt by the Flowerfruit was done by Cheng Fei Yan.
"How dare you!" Cheng Fei Yan stood up and glared at Cheng Ji Zhong. Her long and narrow eyes were filled with anger as she pointed at Cheng Ji Zhong.
It wasn't doubt, but certainty.
Only Cheng Fei Yan would use such a tyrannical method. It was the same as her usual style of doing things, and, with so many people with the surname Yin, only Yin Xuan Miao would be fine.
All the signs, indicated that this was Cheng Fei Yan's doing.
Cheng Ji Zhong wisely revealed all the thoughts in his heart without reservation.
"Bastard!" Cheng Fei Yan slapped the table and stood up, she glared at Cheng Ji Zhong and asked: Are you the one who said all these?
This is the first time I have seen Cheng Fei Yan this angry, a look of shock flashed past Cheng Ji Zhong's eyes, she immediately knelt down, his eyes lowered, she cupped her fists and bowed, "Queen, please calm your anger, this humble subject is only guessing …."
"Shut up!" Cheng Fei Yan roared, and coldly interrupted Cheng Ji Zhong's words, "You and I are siblings, when have I ever lied to you?!"
Cheng Ji Zhong lowered his head and silently listened to Cheng Fei Yan's reprimand.
"Such a vicious thief. As expected, this trick is indeed effective. Even you think that it was my doing." Cheng Fei Yan sighed, "I must thoroughly investigate this matter and restore my innocence. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Cheng Fei Yan did not dare imagine, that this time, the assassination attempt by the Flowerfruit would definitely arouse the discontent of the Yin Clan. If they started together, Cheng Fei Yan might not be able to calm down.
"This humble subject is confused. Queen, please be at ease. This humble subject will definitely investigate to the bottom of this matter." Even though there were still suspicions in her heart, she reluctantly believed Cheng Fei Yan when she saw how angry she was.
Although Cheng Ji Zhong acted rashly, he was not stupid. After thinking carefully, he was able to recognize the current situation, and regardless of whether or not this was what Cheng Fei Yan meant, he had to find a scapegoat.
"Go down, I'm tired." After being enraged to the extreme, Cheng Fei Yan felt extremely tired. She could not think of who had done it, or what their motive was.
Cheng Ji Zhong stood up. As far as he was concerned, he might as well not do anything and just destroy the entire Yin royal family, but as he looked at Cheng Fei Yan's obviously tired face, he swallowed his words.
The hall regained its silence in an instant. Cheng Fei Yan rubbed her forehead, and when she raised her head, she discovered that a black shadow had appeared at the window. She immediately became extremely nervous.
Black Robe seemed to have deliberately stayed outside her window for a moment, then he left after she called for the assassin. With a leap, he disappeared from the window.
