The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 918
A devious smile was glimpsed at the corner of Ye Wushuang's lips, only a glance and disappeared, then Ye Wushuang replied very calmly and naturally: “Abspying the Emperor, I don't know who Huyan is.”
Oi! I am an article!
Concubine Zhen's smile that was looking at her coldly froze instantly, she then shouted anxiously: “Ye Wushuang, listen clearly. Huyan, Huyan, can you make sure that you don't know her?”
“I don't know many men, and this one named Huyan, I haven't even heard of it. Concubine Zhen, may I ask? This guy named Huyan, has anything to do with me?” Ye Wushuang used a kind of thoughtful expression in worry to stare at Consort Zhen, her eyes filled with curiosity and innocence, making Consort Zhen so angry that he did not know what to do.
Oi! I am an article!
“Hey, you're really good at pretending. You can lie to the Emperor, but you can't lie to me. Huyan is the young butler at the Prince Ping residence, if my guess is correct, Miss Wushuang must have a personal relationship with her right?” Concubine Zhen had temperament properties, she said coldly and directly uttered the sentence before the Emperor.
Ji Xingyun sat on her approximate chair, the look on her face instantly changed. Although it was still unclear whether Ye Wushuang had any relationship with the man named Huyan or not, but when hearing such a remark from Consort Zhen's mouth, his heart still felt displeased.
“See Concubine Zhen must have misunderstood me, there is no butler named Huyan in Prince Ping's residence. If Consort Zhen said I had a personal relationship with him, it would really be too tarnishing for my good name. I recently entered the Palace, let alone offending Consort Zhen, even I did not have the chance to meet Consort Zhen, I do not know why Consort Zhen slandered me like this.”
Ye Wushuang spoke very honestly and loudly. The tiredness and helplessness in her clear eyes also looked quite pitiful.
Oi! I am an article!
“Concubine Zhen..” The look on Zhao Xueyan's face on the side instantly changed, Zhao Xueyan immediately felt that something was wrong, when Zhao Xueyan wanted to stop her, she realized that it was too late.
“What? Concubine Zhen asked people to watch over me?” Ye Wushuang exclaimed in surprise, a look of bitterness and sadness flashed in her eyes, her clear eyes instantly turning towards Ji Xingyun: “Emperor, , I don't know what I've done wrong until Consort Zhen can watch over me and slander me. But I don't feel guilty, if you want to kill me then please do it blatantly, there's no need to go around in circles like this. Why slander me with such a crime?.”
“Concubine Zhen, exactly what happened?” This time Ji Xingyun also realized something was wrong. His tone became very cold.
There was no need to talk about whether Ye Wushuang had a personal relationship or not with that man named Huyan, just based on the actions of Concubine Zhen who sent someone to watch over Ye Wushuang alone had already irritated her greatly. After being crowned Emperor, the thing Ji Xingyun hated the most was the drama of the battle between women for the sake of gaining endless affections, conspiracies and tactics, the cruelty in every step, in every step, making Ji Xingyun feel that women are the most frightening thing in this world.
Yes, Queen Qin was also like that, although Queen Qin won the world for the sake of Ji Xingyun, but in the end Ji Xingyun still hated him.
Seeing the coldness in the Emperor's eyes, Consort Zhen's heart also turned cold, Consort Zhen knew he had to put in all his might this time around.
Concubine Zhen reached out her right hand then pointed it towards Ye Wushuang with a burning fury, with a ferocious and deadly light in the look in her eyes: “Good, even though I sent people to watch over you, but it's because I care about the Emperor. Your origins are unclear, I want to clearly investigate what kind of woman you are. Look, now you've shown me your fox tail.”
