Chapter 139 Reincarnation (29)
Ning Qingyan naturally wouldn't believe what he said. Since Chen was pretending in front of him, he would just watch.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late, please undress and go to bed."
Ning Qingyan raised his eyebrows slightly, "This king does not like to sleep with others."
Chen Ye pursed his lips, stood up from the bed, and said simply: "Then Your Majesty sleeps here, I will sleep on the couch outside."
Now that the weather is getting warmer, Chen Ye doesn't feel cold sleeping on the couch in his heavy and complicated wedding dress.
Listening to the gradually calming breathing sounds in the room, Ning Qingyan felt irritated while lying on the bed, but Zhou Defu was watching him at the door, so he could not leave the room for the time being.
As soon as Zhou Defu returned to the palace, he immediately killed Chen Ye.
The next morning, when Chen Ye woke up, Ning Qingyan was gone.
There were no maids in the mansion, only guards, and no one took care of Chen Ye's food and clothes.
Chen Ye found a set of white clothes from the bag he brought with him and put them on. Only after taking off the heavy wedding clothes did Chen Ye feel relieved. He didn't know what they were made of, but they were so tight and heavy.
Chen Ye skillfully tied up his waist-length hair with a hairpin. After he was done, he pushed open the door. There was no one outside. Chen Ye followed his memory and walked to the living room. The guards he met along the way just ignored him and treated him as air.
When he arrived at the front hall, Chen Ye saw Ning Qingyan having breakfast.
Fortunately, he did not miss breakfast.
Chen Ye secretly glanced at Ning Qingyan and sat next to him, then picked up the bowl and scooped himself a bowl of porridge.
Chen also raised his head and wanted to glance at Ning Qingyan again, but found that Ning Qingyan was staring at him expressionlessly.
Seeing such a cold expression on this familiar face, Chen Ye felt sad.
But soon Chen Ye smiled at Ning Qingyan, "Prince, do you want me to help you serve another bowl?"
Ning Qingyan looked away, "No need."
After breakfast, Chen Ye had nothing to do in the huge palace.
Ning Qingyan disappeared, and Chen Ye grabbed a guard and asked, "Do you know where the prince went?"
The guard said, "Princess, I don't know."
Chen Ye wandered around the palace, and no one stopped him.
As he walked, he saw Su Ye at the door of a room. He had an impression of Su Ye.
Chen Ye walked up to Su Ye and asked, "Is the prince in there?"
Su Ye lowered his eyes to look at him, with obvious hostility in his eyes, "The prince is reading in the study and will not see guests."
Chen Ye raised his eyebrows slightly. It seemed that it was difficult for him to get close to Ning Qingyan with his identity. Ning Qingyan and his confidants all regarded Chen Ye as a spy sent by the emperor.
After being rejected, Chen left quickly. Ning Qingyan would return to his room at night anyway, and he would make his position clear to Ning Qingyan then.
At night, Ning Qingyan pushed the wheelchair into the room, and without even looking at Chen Ye, he went straight to the bedside.
Chen Ye walked up to him and said, "Your Majesty, I want to take the initiative to confess something to you."
Ning Qingyan's calm eyes were full of teasing, as if he wanted to see what Chen Ye would make up to get close to him, "Tell me about it."
Chen didn't beat around the bush. "Before I got married, my father asked me to go to the palace and check whether your legs were really disabled."
As Chen Ye expected, Ning Qingyan's expression did not change at all when he heard his words, because Ning Qingyan already knew it.
Chen Ye continued, "I know the prince doesn't believe me, but I don't have the slightest intention of hurting or betraying the prince."
Ning Qingyan stared at Chen Ye, playing with a dagger that came from nowhere in his hand. The cold light reflected by the dagger made Ning Qingyan look particularly terrifying.
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
Chen Ye swallowed his saliva and squatted down. He looked at Ning Qingyan and said, "I'm not afraid. I believe that the prince will not kill innocent people indiscriminately."
Ning Qingyan laughed sarcastically, "Really?"
He had killed so many people that he couldn't even count them all, and he didn't care whether they were innocent or not.
Why did Chen Ye think that he would not kill innocent people?
Looking at the innocent Chen Ye, Ning Qingyan put the dagger against his neck, and a line of blood instantly appeared on his fair and fragile neck.
Chen didn't avoid or dodge. After a moment of silence, he looked at Ning Qingyan again.
Ning Qingyan felt a sudden pain in his heart when he met Chen Ye's gaze, and the dagger could not move forward even an inch. Ning Qingyan's expression remained unchanged, and he did not show any abnormality in front of Chen Ye.
Ning Qingyan frowned slightly as he stared at the wound on Chen Ye's neck. Chen Ye's red eyes made him feel very uncomfortable, and he even wanted to raise his hand to wipe away his tears.
Chen Ye glanced at the dagger at his neck. "It's easy to kill me, but why don't you spare my life, Your Majesty? I can help Your Majesty paralyze the emperor and prevent him from doubting you. It will be more beneficial for you to keep me."
The dagger around his neck did not move away, Ning Qingyan really wanted to kill him.
Chen also showed his trump card, he said: "I can cure the prince's leg."
Last night he used his spiritual power to check Ning Qingyan's leg injury, and it was not completely broken as people said. Ning Qingyan's leg tendons were damaged, but the culprit that prevented Ning Qingyan from walking was poison.
Ning Qingyan was poisoned, which is why he is unable to walk.
Recalling the tit-for-tat between Ning Chen and Ning Qingyan, the person who poisoned Ning Qingyan was most likely Ning Chen, and only he would dare to poison Ning Qingyan.
The dagger came closer, and Ning Qingyan asked in a cold tone, "Do you know medical skills?"
Chen Ye said: "Yes, I know medical skills, I can cure you."
After staring at Chen Ye's eyes for a while, Ning Qingyan retracted the dagger.
"time?"
Ning Qingyan's tone was obviously relaxed, and Chen Ye's heart was relieved. "Give me two months, and I will definitely be able to cure the prince. If the prince's leg is not healed by then, you will kill me."
"Okay, I'll give you two months. If I find out you're lying..." Ning Qingyan said coldly, "You don't want to know the consequences."
Ning Qingyan's eyes were cold. Even if you are a monster, I will skin you alive.
Chen Ye said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do what I say."
Ning Qingyan stared at Chen Ye for a moment. He didn't know the person in front of him before, nor had he seen him before, but for some reason, when he looked at those eyes, Ning Qingyan felt a sense of familiarity in his heart.
He clenched his fists and didn't respond.
Everyone can say something, but it depends on how you do it.
Three days passed in a flash, and soon it was the day for Chen Ye to return home.
The people from the Song family came to pick him up early in the morning, not because he was valued, but because Song Yuncheng wanted to know how Chen Ye was progressing in getting close to Ning Qingyan.
Chen Ye persuaded Ning Qingyan with much coaxing the day before yesterday and finally made her agree to go back home with him.
In the carriage, Ning Qingyan was wearing a dark fox fur cloak, his eyes fixed on the book in his hands.
Opposite him, Chen Ye first carefully took a piece of pastry on the table, ate it secretly, and seeing that Ning Qingyan did not react, he quickly took two more pieces.
Before long, the entire plate of pastries on the low table was empty.
With a "pa" sound, Ning Qingyan placed the book on the table. Chen Ye looked up at Ning Qingyan, with half a piece of unfinished pastry in his hand.
There was a hint of crack in the expression on Ning Qingyan's handsome face. He didn't know where Chen Ye came from, a ghost or a monster, and he was so greedy.
The same thing happened on the wedding day. If Ning Qingyan remembered correctly, there was no food left on the table when he entered the bridal chamber.
Could it be a starving ghost?
"My Lord, do you want to eat too?"
Chen Ye pushed the plate towards Ning Qingyan.
Ning Qingyan said coldly: "No need."
When the carriage arrived at the Song family, Chen Ye got off the carriage first. When Song Yuncheng saw Chen Ye and was about to ask him something, he saw Ning Qingyan coming down from the back of the carriage in a wheelchair.
The carriage was specially made and the back could be fully opened to make it convenient for Ning Qingyan to get in and out.
However, he rarely went out since returning to Kyoto.
Song Yuncheng's face changed when he saw Ning Qingyan. Why did this evil star follow him?
After realizing what was happening, Song Yuncheng quickly led his entire family to pay their respects, "I didn't know the prince was coming, I'm sorry for not coming to greet you."
Song Yuncheng bent over and lowered his head. He cursed in his heart, was Ning Qingyan trying to intimidate him?
After a long time, Ning Qingyan pushed his wheelchair into the Song family, and Chen followed behind him.
Song Yulin clenched his fists, "Dad, did he know something?"
Song Yuncheng straightened up and looked at Song Yulin with a look of disappointment, "Nonsense, he is disabled but not stupid."
Ning Qingyan couldn't possibly be unaware of the purpose of sending Chen Ye to the palace. The Song family and the emperor hoped that Chen Ye could bring some useful information before he was killed by Ning Qingyan.
"How can we communicate with our brother if he's here?"
Song Yuncheng whispered something to Song Yulin, who nodded immediately.
In the front hall of the Song Mansion, Ning Qingyan sat in the first seat, while Song Yuncheng sat trembling below.
Ning Qingyan is disabled, but he is the God of War of Shengyang, and his reputation as an evil star makes Song Yuncheng dare not act rashly.
So Song Yuncheng helped the emperor deal with Ning Qingyan, but when Ning Qingyan really appeared in front of him, he was still very scared.
The maid poured tea for Ning Qingyan and everyone present, but Ning Qingyan didn't take a sip.
"Your Majesty, Yao'er has returned home. I asked him to have a good chat with his mother and reminisce about the past."
Ning Qingyan raised her eyes and looked at Chen Ye, who said, "I'll be back soon."
Ning Qingyan nodded slightly.
Following the maid through a long corridor and across a garden, Chen Ye arrived at the backyard.
When Chen Ye opened the door according to his memory, what he saw was not Zhou Jia as expected, but Song Yulin who had been waiting for a long time.
Song Yulin sat on the chair and looked at Chen Ye with disdain, "What? You thought you were marrying Prince Ning and you're marrying a rich man. You don't even bother to show respect to me, your brother?"
Chen Ye walked over and sat down, "Now I am the princess, and you should bow to me if you want to bow."
With a "bang", Song Yulin slammed the table. He wanted to slap Chen Ye, but Chen Ye grabbed his wrist.
Chen Ye's strength was so great that Song Yulin was shocked.
He said sternly, "Song Yao, don't think you can escape control just by marrying her. Don't forget, your mother is still with us."
Chen Ye released his wrist, his eyes calm.
After a cold snort, Song Yulin thought Chen was afraid, so he asked, "How is the matter I asked you to investigate going? Is Prince Su's leg really disabled?"
Chen also said: "I've only been married for three days, do you think I can know so quickly?"
Song Yulin sneered: "He didn't touch you? That's right, your appearance makes people feel unlucky. Prince Li doesn't like you, so how could Prince Su like you?"
According to the memory of the original owner Song Yao, Chen Ye recalled that Song Yulin should also like Prince Li, and Prince Li was quite nice to Song Yao. Song Yulin often bullied Song Yao, and there was also jealousy.
It was possible that it was Song Yulin who suggested to Song's father that Song Yao marry Ning Qingyan.
Killing two birds with one stone, not only did the Song family gain face in front of the emperor, but a love rival was eliminated at the same time.
Chen Ye said: "If Prince Li thought highly of you, he wouldn't have married a principal wife and a dozen concubines."
It was no secret that Song Yulin admired Prince Li, but at this moment he was angry, "What do you know? His Highness Prince Li is just pretending to be romantic and keeping a low profile!"
"Really? He didn't seem to be reluctant at all when he was visiting prostitutes in the brothel."
He said that he was paralyzing the emperor and pretending to be romantic, but when it came to really enjoying himself, Prince Li was very clear about it.
Just as Song Yulin was about to lose his temper, he heard a knock on the door.
He walked to the door and opened it, and saw his younger sister Song Yumei.
Song Yulin was a little surprised. "Mei'er, aren't you sick? Why are you here?"
Song Yumei looked inside the room with a pale face. When she saw Chen Ye sitting upright on the chair, her pupils dilated and she looked frightened.
Song Yumei whispered: "Brother, come with me first."
Song Yulin said to Chen Ye fiercely: "Do the job you were told to do and let us know the result."
He had always been very fond of his sister and soon left with Song Yumei.
Chen Ye saw Song Yulin leave, and soon he returned to the front hall.
In the front hall, I don’t know what Ning Qingyan and Song Yuncheng talked about. Song Yuncheng was sweating profusely and looked like he was about to die.
Chen Ye whispered in Ning Qingyan's ear, "Prince, let's leave. There's nothing else."
When he was about to leave, Song Yuncheng did not try to persuade him to stay. He was eager to get rid of this plague god.
Just now, Song Yuncheng asked his men to accidentally pour boiling hot tea on Ning Qingyan, wanting to test Ning Qingyan's legs.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the servant pretended to fall, before he could touch Ning Qingyan at all, his arm was cut off by the cold-faced guard beside Ning Qingyan.
Song Yuncheng was sitting far away, otherwise he suspected that he would also be hit by the sword.
He was about to take advantage of the situation to say a few words, but Ning Qingyan said coldly: "Minister Song, sit tight, or your head will be the next one."
Then, the servant beside Ning Qingyan cleaned the front hall neatly.
Song Yuncheng was a civil servant and had never been threatened in such a direct and bloody way. He remembered the rumors that when Ning Qingyan was in the army, he killed enough people to kill an entire town in a single battle.
He didn't believe it at first, but now he does.
Song Yuncheng's legs went limp with fear, and he began to regret listening to Song Yulin and sending Song Yao to Ning Qingyan.
It’s not that he was worried about Song Yao’s safety, but he was worried that the matter would be exposed and the Song family would be finished.
On the way back, Chen also glanced at Ning Qingyan who was taking a nap with his eyes closed.
"Your Highness, it was Song Yulin who called me over just now. I didn't see my mother."
Ning Qingyan did not open his eyes and looked unconcerned.
"He asked me if my legs were really disabled, and I fooled him for the time being."
