Chapter 22

If the words Ye Lanjue said just now were meant to mean something, then it was obviously meant to mean something. Tang Kexin secretly breathed out. Could it really be him? If it really was him, then her days in the future would never be easy.

However, that night, she completely covered the wound on her shoulder. The person who had entered her room to secretly investigate definitely did not discover anything, so, even if it really was him, he could not be completely sure. Otherwise, with his personality, he would not be so probing at this moment, and might have already dismembered her into thousands of pieces.

For a moment, Ye Langchen was stupefied. He looked at his brother with a hint of disbelief and astonishment. His Third Imperial Brother was truly baffling today, and he seemed to continuously targeting Tang Kexin. This was truly strange!

Could he have been right? Had Tang Kexin offended his Third Brother before? But, that's impossible! How could Tang Kexin have the chance to offend his Third Imperial Brother? Besides, ordinary things would definitely not offend his brother, and Tang Kexin, prior to her treatment, was but a foolish girl.

The Prime Minister upon hearing what had the Third Prince said was so frightened that his heart almost stopped beating. One day, he would either be angered to death by this girl or be scared to death by this girl.

"Your Highness, my daughter had been ill and has not completely recovered yet. Just like a child, there are many things that she does not understand. If my daughter had ever said nor did wrong, I hope Your Highness could forgive her." The Prime Minister hastily explained, with his back breaking out with cold sweats.

The Third Prince was cold and indifferent, and would never care about matters of no concern to him, but once he paid attention to matters, he would never stop until his intended results were out.

But what was going on with his mind right now? At this moment, besides being shocked, the Prime Minister was also full of worry.

Ye Lanjue didn't say anything. He just picked up the tea by his side and slowly sipped it. He was quite relaxed, without anything out of the ordinary. No one could guess what he was thinking.

The Prime Minister felt like his heart was about to collapse. What did the Third Prince meant by not saying anything?

Ye Lanchen had a bewildered expression on his face. Tang Kexin's heart was also slightly nervous. This kind of silence made her unable to restrain her fear, causing her heart to slightly trembled.

"Lord Prime Minister, Eunuch Liu has arrived. He passed on the orders of the Emperor for the Prime Minister to enter the palace immediately." At this time, the steward came in to report.

The Prime Minister heaved a sigh of relief. This Eunuch Liu had come at the right time. Facing the Third Prince like this, he was both frightened and perturbed.

Tang Kexin, too secretly heaved a sigh of relief. With the Emperor summoning his father into the palace, the Third Prince would definitely leave as well.

However, the next words that Ye Lanchen said made Tang Kexin's previously calm heart once again rise to her throat, "Oh, that's right. I almost forgot to tell the reason why we came. Mother had heard of Xin'er's recovery, so she wanted to see her. But now that the Prime Minister was to visit the palace then we should leave together."

Enter the palace? To see the Empress? With them?

"Mm, then Xin'er will follow the Fourth Prince to the palace to see the Empress." The Prime Minister had already made the decision for her. Since it was the Empress who had summoned her, then it was natural that it would not be disobeyed.

"Yes." No matter how unwilling Tang Kexin was, she could only agree.

Since they were all about to enter the palace, they all left the hall and walked out of the manor together.

However, before the group of people had even walked out of the Manor's entrance, they heard an angry voice growl over, "I want to see Tang Kexin!"

Tang Kexin's eyes flashed. Mu Shaoyi? Why was he still here?

"Oh? Mu Shaoyi is here again? But Xin'er, where are we to find a mouse at this instant?" Ye Lan Chen's smile was exceptionally excited.

"Fourth Prince..." The Prime Minister wiped his sweat. What day was it today? With his daughter now coupled with the Fourth Prince's unruly personality, he really didn't know what would happen.

Ye Lanjue's eyes that were like stars and moon stared at Tang Kexin, the corners of his eyebrows slightly raised.
