Chapter 64 I Believe She Will Never Betray Me

The commander of the Royal Guard did not dare to point out clearly that the murderer was Crown Princess Yueying.

Because ever since the Spirit Hall personally issued a statement to clear the identity of their Crown Princess, the Crown Princess now enjoys a very high prestige among the people and spirit masters!

After all, the number of people who can make the Spirit Hall speak out can be counted on ten fingers. This is obviously a call for amnesty, and the two empires are also wary of the Spirit Hall.

"what!!!"

When Prince Xuexing heard that it was Yueying, he stood up suddenly and shouted, "Then why don't you go and arrest the Crown Princess right away!"

Prince Xuexing has always supported Xue Beng and wanted to help Xue Beng seize the position of crown prince.

Now, although Avalanche is dead, Yueying has always been against them, so he wants to avenge Avalanche even more now.

Upon hearing that the Prince wanted to arrest the Crown Princess, the Commander of the Royal Guard did not dare to act rashly. He looked at Emperor Xue Ye with some embarrassment.

Emperor Xue Ye opened his eyes, glared at Prince Xue Xing, then looked at the commander of the Imperial Guards and ordered, "Go and ask the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess to come to the bedroom."

"Also, all matters concerning the Fourth Prince must be kept secret from the outside world. Please ask those people who are on good terms with the Fourth Prince to come back and be guarded separately until the truth is found out before dealing with them."

"Yes."

The commander of the Royal Guard signaled to the two lieutenants beside him to go to the academy to invite the Crown Princess and bring back the Fourth Prince's friends respectively.

He himself walked quickly towards the prince's bedroom.

At this time, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo Chenxin just arrived. On the way there, he had heard the situation from the guard who had delivered the message.

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin nodded slightly to Emperor Xueye.

"Your Majesty, please accept my condolences!"

Emperor Xue Ye nodded calmly and said, "This is about the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, and Sect Master Ning is the Crown Prince's teacher, so Sect Master Ning and Jian Douluo have been bothered to come here overnight. Please take a seat."

Ning Fengzhi said: "As the prince's teacher, this is what I should do."

After saying that, he and Chen Xin walked towards the position below and next to Emperor Xue Ye.

At this time, everyone in the palace was waiting for the arrival of the Crown Prince and Crown Princess.

Half an hour later.

Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and Crown Princess Yueying finally arrived at Emperor Xue Ye's bedroom.

The two of them nodded slightly to Emperor Xue Ye: "Greetings, Father (Your Majesty)."

But before Emperor Xue Ye could speak, Prince Xue Xing asked directly with great sorrow: "Damn girl, did you kill the Fourth Prince?"

Yueying admitted without hiding anything: "Now that I have found out, I have nothing to hide. It was indeed me who killed Xue Beng!"

Everyone's eyes flickered and they all looked at Yueying.

Yueying's unabashed admission that she was the murderer made Prince Xuexing speechless for a moment.

Prince Xuexing didn't expect that this damn girl would admit it so readily!

At this time, the silent Emperor Xue Ye spoke up: "Why did you want to kill the Fourth Prince?"

Yueying said indifferently: "Your Majesty, you know that the Fourth Prince has offended me."

Prince Xue Xing said in disbelief: "No, this is definitely not the reason. If it's because Xue Beng has offended you before, it's not the first or second time. I didn't see you kill him before, but you were so ruthless this time. This doesn't make sense! So there must be another hidden reason."

The prince's words made sense to everyone present. At this time, everyone was wondering what Yueying's motive was for killing the fourth prince?

Yueying said indifferently, "It was because he offended me time and again that I got annoyed and took action directly."

She was not prepared to admit a motive outright.

Because if he admitted it directly, it would seem like it was premeditated. He had to let them guess it themselves. This way, Xue Beng's death would seem natural, and this way, he could distance himself from Xue Qinghe, who was disguised as Qian Renxue!

At this moment, Prince Xuexing suddenly thought of a possibility. Maybe Xue Beng discovered some secret of this dead girl, so she killed him.

But…what is the secret?

Prince Xuexing’s mind was racing, trying to find out Yueying’s secret!

Suddenly, he remembered what the captain of the guards said: Avalanche’s friends saw him following a man after he saw him walking towards the woods on the back mountain.

If she was following a man, why did she end up dying at the hands of that damn girl Yueying?

What is the relationship between that man and Yueying? !

Prince Xuexing looked at Emperor Xueye and reminded him, "Your Majesty, according to the testimonies of the nobles who were with the Fourth Prince at the time, the Fourth Prince saw a man walking towards the woods behind the academy, and he followed him secretly."

"But in the end, he died at the hands of the Crown Princess. I have two guesses: First, the man was the Crown Princess in disguise, but this is unlikely; second, the man knew the Crown Princess, and the two of them were probably plotting something in the back mountain, and were discovered by the Fourth Prince, so he was silenced."

After hearing what Prince Xuexing said, the commander of the Imperial Guards remembered something and said, "Your Majesty, when we were investigating the case, we heard something from a friend of the Fourth Prince."

"According to that friend, the day before the incident, he saw the Fourth Prince sneaking around near the teaching building, looking at something unknown. When that friend approached him to ask, the Fourth Prince only said that the Crown Princess was with a man, and that the two of them seemed... seemed..."

The commander of the Imperial Guards did not dare to say anything more because he found that Crown Prince Xue Qinghe was staring at him with a very unhappy look!

Although he didn't finish his words, everyone had already heard the meaning behind them!

Prince Xuexing seemed to suddenly understand something, and although he showed nothing on the surface, he was extremely excited inside.

He directly questioned Yueying: "So that's it. You must have met another man in the woods behind the mountain at night, and the Fourth Prince saw you. You were afraid that he would tell others about your affair, so you killed him to silence him, right?"

Hearing the word "cheating", everyone's brows furrowed slightly.

At this time, Xue Qinghe lowered his head and remained silent, with his hands clenched into fists on both sides of his body.

Emperor Xue Ye glanced at Xue Qinghe and asked Xiang Yueying, "Crown Princess, please explain."

Yueying didn't explain immediately, but looked at Xue Qinghe and asked, "Do you believe me?"

Xue Qinghe nodded silently.

Yueying smiled and said, "As long as Brother Crown Prince believes in me, that's all!"

After saying that, she looked at Emperor Xue Ye and said, "Your Majesty, that's just their speculation. There is no evidence to prove that I have an affair with another man."

Yueying's words and reactions made everyone feel that the more she denied it, the more true her affair was!

And this is exactly the effect she wanted.

Because Yueying knew that if she openly admitted to cheating.

Prince Xuexing would suspect that there might be other reasons behind this, and cheating was just an excuse, so the more she denied it, the more it seemed to be true.

In fact, for Yueying, cheating is a small matter, while Qingluan's identity being exposed is a big deal.

The reason why she killed Xue Beng at that time, not only to help Qian Renxue, but also because Xue Beng discovered Qing Luan's identity!

At this time, Prince Xuexing heard Yueying say that it was just a guess, and he immediately refuted: "It is definitely not a guess. The Fourth Prince is dead, and now there is no evidence. You will naturally not admit it, but all kinds of evidence show that this is the fact."

As he spoke, he looked at Emperor Xue Ye and pleaded, "Your Majesty, Crown Princess Yue Ying betrayed the Crown Prince and had an affair with another man. In order to cover up her infidelity, she also brutally killed the Fourth Prince."

"As the Fourth Prince's uncle, I beg Your Majesty to revoke Yueying's status as Crown Princess and sentence her to death to redress the Fourth Prince's injustice!"

Xue Qinghe immediately cupped his hands and said, "No, father, I believe Xiaoying did not betray me. As for my fourth brother, maybe Xiaoying killed him by mistake."

The prince's words made Prince Xuexing explode: "This damn girl treated you like this, and you still speak for her!!!"

Xue Qinghe said solemnly: "I believe she will never betray me, and I only recognize her. I won't want anyone else to be my Crown Princess except Xiaoying!"
