Chapter 19: The Extremely Refined and Cunning Man

  Yuanyu smiled, with a faint bloodstain on her forehead, incredibly weak and innocent. "At that time, only Rong Shizi was present. If Rong Shizi didn't speak up for justice, when one is at the end of their rope, there's really no other choice but to take an unconventional path."

  The profound meaning in her words was understood by only two people. If Rong Ya didn't help her, she herself wouldn't be able to escape either.

  Rong Yi looked at her and saw a familiar sense of alienation and indifference beneath her smile, and suddenly thought of a similar scene from the past.

  Facing her smile that was as weak as it could be blown away by the wind, there seemed to be a inexplicable movement in his heart.

  He lowered his head and chuckled, his phoenix eyes fluttering, shining brightly, and slowly turned his head to the side, with the snow and moon on his forehead reflecting a dazzling light, and softly sighed.

  "I didn't want to say it, but I couldn't bear to see Rong'er being wronged. At that time, I was strolling in the back garden when I saw a wicked servant bullying his master, saying he had been instructed by his master, so in a moment of urgency..."

  This sentence is broken with great skill, and the words are spoken with even greater skill.

  Yuanyuan listened to this speech and couldn't help but roll her eyes inwardly. She had been used by this sinister person, but unexpectedly she was the one being used instead.

  Look at the gratitude in Ming Wangye's eyes now, he is completely convinced that Rong Yue didn't mention the reason for killing Xiao Hong earlier, it must be to cover up the fact that the slaves and servants in the Ming Wangfu are bullying their masters and harming the legitimate daughter.

  After listening, King Ming's face changed color, and his eyes looking at Rong Yi also carried a hint of guilt.

  "The crown prince didn't mention a word just now, and it turns out there's such a reason behind it. I'm really ashamed to let the crown prince see such an ugly thing in our family, and still try to cover it up, which is indeed unforgivable!"

  "It's just a small effort, no need to worry!" Rong Yi smiled lazily, that noble and heroic feeling was simply not like someone who had killed people, but rather like a savior.

  His eyes swept over Yuan Yue's location, and his voice was warm: "It's just that things have been understood clearly, shouldn't King Ming give an explanation to Rong Er?"

  Although his eyes were smiling, Yuanyu couldn't help but feel that Rongyi's beautiful phoenix eyes, which were quietly looking at her, had a sharp and cool edge like an ice knife, cutting across her skin.

  Daheibei was taken advantage of, and indeed it's a bit uncomfortable. Looking at her eyes, isn't she going to settle the score with her later?

  Just then, Consort Ding rushed over with a cry of surprise and shouted to Prince Ming: "Your Highness, I absolutely did not order the maid to harm Yu Qiong, don't believe that maid's nonsense!"

  The king turned his head to look at her with a face of urgency, his eyes scanning the deep blood scab on Yuanyuan's forehead, with a hint of anger on his face.

  "You mean that Rong Shizi or Yu Jiong bought off the maid by your side, had her say a couple of false words before she died, and then killed her and framed you?"

  Ding Ce Fei glanced at Rong Yi, her heart skipped a beat, but she still suppressed the tremble in her heart and explained: "Maybe it was Young Master Rong who misheard, it's not certain, I've always..."

  King Ming's eyes widened and he interrupted her, "Nonsense! If Rong Shizi hadn't intervened, the one lying there might be Yu Jiong now!"

  Xiaohong has been your maid for many years, how could she possibly take orders from someone else! You actually ordered someone to kill Yujun, the facts are right in front of you, and yet you still refuse to confess!"

  Plotting against the legitimate daughter is absolutely no small mistake.

  Ding Ce Fei refused to admit it, even if she was scolded, she couldn't stop her, her face still had a lingering charm, tears fell like pearls.

  "Your Majesty, Gong Shizi is an outsider, whatever he says you believe. I have followed you for decades, managing the inner palace for you, exhausting my efforts, yet you don't believe a single word I say!"

  Yu Jiong has always been taciturn, but suddenly he and Rong Shizi both said it was my fault. How can you not suspect that there is something between Yu Jiong and Rong Shizi...
