Chapter 4 The Jealousy Woman's Shameless Words

After Wei Qingwan introduced herself, Liu Bingzhong, the capital official, quickly went to court.

The common people crowded outside the court, wanting to see what Wei Qingwan was up to.

Liu Bingzhong patted on the gavel with a solemn face.

"Who is calling for justice right now?"

Wei Qingwan knelt down lightly, straightened her back, and spoke in a firm voice.

"Officer Liu, I'm Wei Qingwan. I didn't kill Su Yuting. I'm innocent!"

"How dare you!" Liu Bingzhong berated harshly. "Did Prince Xun frame you?"

"I don't know what Prince Xun was thinking," Wei Qingwan said lightly, "I only know that I didn't kill anyone. Please investigate this matter thoroughly, Officer Liu."

Behind the long table, Officer Liu's thick brows furrowed deeply, as if weighing the pros and cons.

This matter was too big for him to handle.

"Please invite Prince Xun and Princess Su here."

He immediately looked at his trusted subordinate beside him. The trusted servant understood and hurried out to Prince Xun's Mansion.

In the Prince Xun's Mansion.

Ye Shaoxun had been anxious all night and was scolding the imperial physicians for being useless.

He was also angry that he couldn't kill Wei Qingwan with his own hands.

At this time, the gatekeeper hurried to report that he had been taken to court by Wei Qingwan.

Ye Shaoxun was shocked at first. His royal brother didn't kill her?

Although he was surprised, knowing that Wei Qingwan was alive, he was immediately furious and smiled contemptuously.

"I want to kill her with my own hands. It's good for her to be alive. Bring her back. I'm going to kill her myself!"

"Wei Qingwan dared to report it to the government. She's simply courting death." The guard said disdainfully, "I'll bring her back."

As he spoke, the guard was about to leave, but Ye Shaoxun stopped him with a gloomy face.

"Let me think about it."

How could that good-for-nothing Wei Qingwan have thought of reporting it to the government? It was obvious that it was taught by my royal brother!

My brother has become a cripple. Does he still want to compete with me for the position of Crown Prince?

What a joke.

Since my brother wants to help me build a good reputation, how can I let him down!

Thinking of this, Ye Shaoxun quickly went to the backyard to pick up Su Yuting and rushed to Jingzhao Prefecture.

When they arrived at the Jingzhao Prefecture, the people bowed and automatically made way for Ye Shaoxun.

Ye Shaoxun dismounted from his horse and carried the seriously injured Su Yuting out of the carriage.

The woman in his arms had her eyes tightly closed, and her breathing was weak. Under the sun, her beautiful face was as pale as paper.

The mink coat wrapped tightly around her slender body, but she could still vaguely see her bulging belly and the white gauze bandage around her neck.

The gauze bandage was still stained with blood, which was extremely eye-catching.

Ye Shaoxun walked over step by step with the woman in his arms, his heart aching.

The commoners gasped.

"The second consort of Prince Xun is so tragic! The murderer is so vicious that he won't even let a pregnant woman off. He will definitely be punished by the heavens!"

"The murderer is Wei Qingwan, isn't it? We shouldn't have been fooled by her. We should have asked Officer Liu to punish her."

"The second consort of Prince Xun is so badly injured, but still needs to come here to defend herself."

"No, no, no. She said she was wronged. Let's wait and see. If she is really the murderer, not to mention Prince Xun, even the Empress Dowager will not spare her easily!"

For a moment, everyone present fell silent.

It was clearly full of people, but the sound of a needle falling could be heard all of a sudden. She could only hear the hurried footsteps of Ye Shaoxun as he gradually approached Wei Qingwan.

Everyone in the court hurried forward to greet him.

"Your Highness Prince Xun."

Ye Shaoxun glanced at Liu Bingzhong and the others before he spoke in a warm voice.

"Get up, all of you."

As he spoke, his gaze swept towards Wei Qingwan, and a trace of viciousness flashed in the depths of his eyes. But in the blink of an eye, he returned to normal.

He gently put Su Yuting on the soft couch that was prepared in advance.

The woman was in a coma. Her face was pale, and she looked like she was about to die.

Ye Shaoxun put his hands behind his back and looked heartbroken. He scolded, "You murdered Su Yuting, Wei Qingwan. You caused her to miscarry and her life was in danger!"

"I have forgiven you and let you live decently, but now you dare to frame me. Do you know that anyone framing a prince would be punished for exile!"

Ye Shaoxun looked extremely distressed with his red eyes.

"Maybe I did something wrong so that she had evil intentions. I'm willing to give her a chance to turn over a new leaf."

"Your Highness, you can't let such a vicious person live." Liu Bingzhong pretended to comfort him.

They echoed each other and put on a show for the people.

Wei Qingwan was about to vomit!

Ye Shaoxun was really good at acting!

The original owner had been killed by him last night, but now he pretended to be kind in front of the people, as if he couldn't bear it.

If it was in her era, he should have no problem getting an award for best actor!

To be honest, Wei Qingwan looked down on him from the bottom of her heart. She smiled sarcastically and even laughed out loud.

Wei Qingwan sneered, "Who said that I stabbed Su Yuting? I didn't even touch her!"

"How dare you! How dare you talk nonsense in court?"

Wei Qingwan smiled sweetly. "Didn't Prince Yan say that she was seriously injured, unconscious, and on the verge of death?"

She walked quickly to the soft couch.

Everyone present gasped in an instant and was in a panic.

Ye Shaoxun strode up to Wei Qingwan and stopped her.

"Don't touch Su Yuting. Don't even think about hurting her again!"

He didn't let her get close to him, looking worried.

"Your Prince Yan, are you feeling guilty?" Wei Qingwan asked loudly.

"Don't you dare make unfounded accusations! I only want the mother and child to be safe."

Wei Qingwan couldn't help but laugh.

"As long as the Prince Yan asks me to save her, not only can I clear my name, but she and her child can also be safe. Why do you stop me, Your Highness?"

"Or is there something else behind this?"

She lowered her voice and smiled at Ye Shaoxun, who was trying his best to suppress his emotions.

"You!"

In a place where no one could see his expression, he glared at Wei Qingwan as if he wanted to eat her alive.

But she was not afraid of him. Instead, she straightened her back and met his scrutinizing gaze with a smile.

Ye Shaoxun frowned subconsciously. Wei Qingwan looked a little different.

In the past, she was weak, obedient, and a little afraid of him, so she didn't dare to look at him in the eye.

But now, she dared to look into his eyes and threaten him?

He suddenly felt that something was wrong and sized her up secretly.

Wei Qingwan was wearing a light green dress with a loose sleeve. Although her appearance hadn't changed and she was still a little ugly, it still couldn't hide her graceful demeanor and oppressive momentum.

He had never seen such a strong side of Wei Qingwan.

"This damned woman has been pretending to be gentle in front of me all these years?"

The corners of his mouth twitched as Ye Shaoxun glanced at her suspiciously.

You've always been jealous that I dote on Su Yuting. Who knows what you're up to when you get close to her?
