Chapter 1051 (Blood-Red Wedding)
But looking at Ye Yuanqing\'s attitude, as if it were ironclad evidence, it didn\'t feel good.
"General Ye! Then show the evidence! If there\'s no evidence, it\'s accusing the royal family, a heinous crime that implicates the entire clan!" The Emperor, no longer showing any courtesy, declared that if they wanted to conspire, he would kill every member of the Ye family!
Hearing the Emperor\'s words, everyone present took a sharp breath. The Emperor\'s blade was indeed heading towards the Ye family!
Even Prince Ye was not spared!
Today, this was a blood-red wedding!
Yet, Ye Hua remained calm, and Huang Fei was eager to know what could make Ye Hua show any emotion.
Upon hearing the Emperor\'s words, Ye Shen felt a bit dizzy. Today, the Ye family was doomed.
At this moment, Shan Junren also felt uneasy. Would the Emperor take this opportunity to attack him? After all, the previous engagement had many suspicions.Ye Yuanqing spoke with a solemn tone, "Your Majesty, I do have evidence."
"Then speak!" Huang Fei said coldly.
Ye Yuanqing cupped his hands and said, "Many soldiers witnessed it that day! The Crown Prince took the lead in seizing the Supreme Soul for Your Majesty! However, the Ninth Prince, out of jealousy, accused the Crown Prince of selfishness, threatening to kill him! In the end, both disappeared, but only the Ninth Prince returned, spouting words without any corroborating evidence."
"This kind of statement lacks credibility. Moreover, in this war, the Ninth Prince\'s orders were also flawed. He made us and the Crown Prince cannon fodder. Upon learning that we had defeated the enemy, he appeared with people to claim credit. Such a person is unworthy of being our prince and should not exist in the royal family!"
Ye Shen felt like passing out after hearing this. After all the talk, it was just Ye Yuanqing\'s speculation. Many people shared Ye Shen\'s thoughts; these were just personal speculations, not evidence.
Too hasty.
Huang Yun said calmly, "General Ye, I know you have prejudices against me, but this misunderstanding is too significant. Huang Li concealed himself well, caught me off guard, and escaped. He is the one with sinister intentions. On the other hand, Huang Li and Prince Ye have a good relationship. They were together every day, seemingly discussing some undisclosed secret."
Now, all eyes turned to Ye Hua.
The Ninth Prince\'s mind was indeed clever. He turned the tables, skillfully speculating that Prince Ye and Huang Li conspired to seize the Supreme Soul. Although it was also a guess, it had its merits.
After all, Ye Yuanqing was also speculating. Everyone was speculating, and it was hard to determine the truth.
Qian Yuqing began to worry. The Ninth Prince had managed to reach this point, not without reason. He was no fool.
\'Ye Hua, be careful. If things get out of hand, just give up. Qian Yuqing has understood your feelings, and there will be no regrets in this lifetime.\'
However, at this point, it was impossible to stop speaking.
Huang Yun had no intention of letting Ye Hua off. He said calmly, "I\'m afraid Prince Ye now knows where Huang Li is. If you reveal it, perhaps the Emperor can spare your mother\'s life."
Huang Yun\'s meaning was simple: all of the Ye family would die.
Upon hearing this threat, Ye Hua squinted his eyes slightly, surprised that his own mother was being used as leverage.
It could only be Huang Yun!
"Prince Ye! Is this true?" Huang Fei questioned coldly.
\'Just now, it was you siblings playing a double act, and now it\'s us father and son. Ye Hua, today is the day you die, and there\'s no escape for you.\'
Suddenly, Ye Hua took out a cigarette and lit it, confusing the crowd. What was this thing? It emitted smoke and required inhalation and exhalation.
It seemed like something ominous.
"Your Majesty, there\'s something I\'d like to ask about." Ye Hua exhaled a puff of smoke and asked calmly.
"Prince Ye, go ahead." Huang Fei had a feeling that Ye Hua seemed to have given up resistance, reaching a dead end.
Ye Hua slowly said, "During those days on the front lines, I noticed someone acting suspiciously. I wonder if it was someone sent by Your Majesty?"
As Ye Hua spoke, Huang Fei\'s face subtly changed. \'Has the trace of the Crow been discovered? How was that possible! It shouldn\'t be!\'
But Ye Hua had spoken, indicating some awareness.
"Your Majesty, if you want me dead, I have no choice but to die. But there should at least be a reason!" Ye Hua looked at Huang Fei and spoke softly.
Huang Fei now faced two choices: either admit to the attempted assassination of Ye Hua or deny it.
If he chose the former, the act of assassinating a meritorious general would be confirmed. If this news spread, his reputation would be tarnished.
This was something Huang Fei was unwilling to see. Without much thought, he would definitely choose to deny it.
"Prince Ye, you might have misunderstood. How could I even think of killing you? You\'re overthinking it." Huang Fei squeezed out a smile.
Everyone present knew the Emperor wanted to get rid of Ye Hua, but what was lacking was an excuse. Now, the excuse was about to be presented. He couldn\'t afford to miss this opportunity, even if it meant eating a lump of shit with their eyes closed.
"Then why did Your Majesty arrange for someone to assassinate me?" Ye Hua asked casually.
"In fact, the person I arranged is to ensure Prince Ye\'s safety. Look, Prince Ye is safe and sound sitting here, right?" Huang Fei smiled faintly. At this moment, the statement seemed plausible. The Emperor had gone to great lengths to protect a loyal minister, even neglecting to send someone to protect his own son. This was something worthy of praise.
Ye Hua was stunned and chuckled, "So that\'s how it is. Your Majesty, why not have him come out so that I can express my gratitude properly?"
Huang Fei really didn\'t understand what Ye Hua was doing and felt a bit confused.
"This person is not in the capital now." Huang Fei said indifferently. The Crow\'s identity was quite sensitive; it was better not to reveal it.
"No problem. I feel this person is quite powerful. As long as Your Majesty gives the order, he will definitely be on the scene. Or is it that Your Majesty doesn\'t want him to appear?"
Huang Fei\'s gaze gradually became serious. Why was Ye Hua insisting on bringing out the Crow? Was there some conspiracy?
However, not calling the Crow to appear now seemed like he was hesitating.
"Alright." Huang Fei agreed and signalled for the Crow to come over.
The Crow figure gradually appeared in the air. In the presence of an outsider, the Crow still had to bow and say, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
"Please rise. Prince Ye wants to thank you for your assistance," Huang Fei said softly, curious to see what game Ye Hua was playing.
"It was nothing much," the Crow replied quietly.
Hearing Crow\'s words, Huang Fei\'s heart was at ease. The Crow had been with him for so long; how could he possibly betray him?
Moreover, the idea of a Supreme Overlord betraying him was simply nonexistent.
