Chapter 477 True and False Princess Ye
At this time, a man who knew the situation in the crowd said, "The Zhong family in the south of the city, so this lord and his wife must be Zhong Changli and Madam Zhong!"
"I know about this. Last year, His Majesty the Night King was seriously ill, and the Emperor ordered Miss Zhong to go to His Majesty the Night King to bring him good luck. But when Miss Zhong saw His Majesty the Night King's face on their wedding night, she was so scared that she burst into tears."
"She refused to stay in the same room with His Highness the Night King, and she kept clamoring to break off the engagement and go home. At dawn the next day, she actually ran back with her maidservant who came with her as a dowry."
"Because of this incident, many people in the capital were saying that His Highness the Night King was unlucky in marriage. Miss Zhong was already his fourth wife. The previous three wives all died shortly after their marriages, or committed suicide by hanging on their wedding night."
"After Miss Zhong returned, her fate was not so good. I heard that she went crazy after a few days. Sometimes she was normal and sometimes she was not. Such a good girl was ruined just like that!"
"Oh, it's such a pity."
As soon as the words fell, Zhong Changli took over immediately.
"This young man is right. My daughter Xinyu became crazy after returning from the Night King's Mansion. She said that she was frightened by His Highness the Night King."
"After I took my daughter back home, I have been looking for famous doctors to treat her, but the effect is minimal. After taking the medicine, she can be normal for a few hours, but she will become crazy again the next day."
"Especially in recent times, her condition has suddenly become more serious, and even medication can't control it. Sometimes she can't even recognize me and my wife!"
"I have seen it with my own eyes and it hurts my heart, but I am only a small official with little influence. There are still fifty or sixty people to support in the mansion. Xinyu's medical expenses are too high, and I really can't afford it, so I found His Royal Highness the Night King, hoping that His Royal Highness the Night King can take responsibility for her."
After Ji Yuntang heard the whole story, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
Just as I was about to go out, I heard a cold female voice coming from behind the crowd.
"Responsible? Responsible for what? Doesn't Lord Zhong know that there is already a princess in the Ye Palace?"
When everyone turned around, they found that the person who came was Pei Zhiyi, the second daughter of General Dingyuan's mansion.
She did not wear men's clothes today. Instead, she wore an emerald green Hanyansha skirt, which outlined her slender waist. Her black hair was tied up in a flowing cloud bun, and a emerald green auspicious cloud and Ruyi hairpin was inserted in it. She looked elegant and dignified, and at the same time, she was dazzling.
When Zhong Changli saw Pei Zhiyi, before he could say anything, his wife Xu rushed out.
"Who are you? Our master is seeking justice for his daughter. What does it have to do with you? Why does a little girl like you need to come in and butt in?"
"Besides, the position of the Night Princess should have originally belonged to our Xinyu. If our Xinyu hadn't been afraid of His Royal Highness the Night King and ran back, how could Ji Yuntang be the Night Princess now?"
Pei Zhiyi sneered. She controlled her hand that wanted to slap someone and asked bluntly:
"You also said that she ran back because she was afraid of His Highness the Night King. So why are you coming to me now?"
"You don't think that this Yewang Mansion is a place where you can come and go as you please, do you?"
Xu snorted coldly, with an extremely arrogant attitude.
"My daughter's illness was caused by His Highness the Night King. Shouldn't he be responsible for my daughter?"
"He married my daughter, so he should take care of her for the rest of her life. Now my daughter doesn't despise him for being a cripple, so how can he despise my daughter for being mentally ill?"
"Maybe it was my daughter who brought him back to life..."
As soon as Xu finished speaking, Pei Zhiyi kicked her out.
She fell into the crowd with a bang, sprawled out in a state of disarray.
Pei Zhiyi said coldly: "You are such a bold woman. Not only did you flatter your daughter, but you even dared to make up stories about His Royal Highness the Night King in public."
"His Royal Highness the Night King's condition has obviously improved because of the Night King's Concubine. Your daughter was scared to tears by a man on her wedding night and she didn't even dare to enter the wedding room. How can you be worthy of asking His Royal Highness the Night King to be responsible for her?"
"Well said!" Another cold and magnetic male voice came from behind the crowd.
Pei Zhiyi turned his head and found that it was Luo Sinian who came.
He was dressed in white, walking quickly towards them. The sunlight shone on his handsome and resolute face, making him less cold and instead giving him a warm and otherworldly temperament.
Pei Zhiyi's heart skipped a beat. It was the first time she saw Luo Sinian wearing white.
I didn't expect that it would look so good on him.
Seeing Luo Sinian looking at him, Pei Zhiyi quickly pretended not to see him and turned his head away.
After she turned around, she felt a little regretful. Isn't this just a case of trying to cover up one's own faults?
Luo Sinian did not expose her. After he came out, Zhong Changli quickly knelt down and saluted.
"Your humble servant pays respect to His Royal Highness Prince Chen. I wonder why His Royal Highness Prince Chen is here?"
Luo Sinian glanced at him, his eyes turned cold, and he pulled out a patrol battalion token from his waist.
"My father has ordered me to lead the troops to protect the safety of everyone in the Night Palace from today onwards."
"So, isn't it normal for me to be here?"
Pei Zhiyi turned his head and saw that a group of soldiers from the patrol camp had rushed over and surrounded Prince Ye's mansion.
Zhong Changli lowered his head even more. He knew that Luo Sinian and Luo Junhe had a good relationship. If he intervened in this matter, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to complete the task assigned by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!
Luo Sinian's gaze lingered on Zhong Changli for a moment, with a condescending look.
“Everyone only knows one side of the story, but perhaps not the other.”
"At the beginning, my father issued an order for my third brother to marry the eldest daughter of the Zhong family as the Princess of Night. But who would have thought that on the wedding day, the eldest daughter of the Zhong family eloped with her lover. Later, it was Concubine Li who sent people to capture the eldest daughter of the Zhong family and stuffed her into the bridal sedan."
"It was me who went to pick up the bride on behalf of the third brother, and it was me who also took his place in the wedding ceremony. She kept crying during this period. I really didn't notice that Miss Zhong had any feelings for the third brother. I only saw that she was devoted to her lover."
"The next day, Miss Zhong cried and wanted to go home. She threatened my third brother to let her go. My third brother couldn't bear to let an innocent woman die because of him, so he let her go."
"Afterwards, my third brother took all the responsibility for this matter on himself, saying that Miss Zhong was innocent. He was also willing to give Miss Zhong a letter of divorce and let her be with her lover."
