Chapter 1065: Hidden Meaning

Ye Liuyun stepped into the carriage and found that there was actually an independent small space inside the carriage.

The space was not big, with a thatched cottage and a courtyard. There was a tea table in the courtyard, which was decorated very simply.

An elegant middle-aged man was drinking tea. When he saw Ye Liuyun coming in, he immediately stood up and bowed to greet him.

"Lord Ye!"

The clone also immediately confirmed with Xia Tianqiong that this person was the left prime minister, Xin Moyu.

"Lord Left Prime Minister!" Ye Liuyun clasped his fists and saluted.

According to his status, Ye Liuyun was the King of Bravery, which was higher than the left prime minister.

But he did not dare to neglect the left prime minister at all.

"Xin is presumptuous to come and disturb you, I hope Lord Ye will not blame me!" The left prime minister said very kindly.

The left prime minister asked Ye Liuyun to sit down while making tea.

"Lord Left Prime Minister, don't be polite! I don't know much about the rules of officialdom. If you have something to ask me, just say it directly!"

Ye Liuyun did not like to beat around the bush, and he did not like to socialize even more.

"Haha! Prince Ye is really a straightforward person!"

The Left Prime Minister laughed and put down the teapot.

"Since Prince Ye doesn't like tea, I'll get straight to the point!"

Ye Liuyun nodded: "Please speak, Left Prime Minister!"

"Are the Ninth Princess and the Thirteenth Princess with you?" Left Prime Minister asked directly.

"Yes." Ye Liuyun confirmed.

"Could it be that Emperor Xia wants to find me because of this matter?" He muttered secretly in his heart. He looked at the Left Prime Minister suspiciously.

However, the Left Prime Minister did not continue to talk about this topic, but talked to Ye Liuyun about the robbery of the Fourth Prince's escort, which made Ye Liuyun puzzled.

"Who do you think, Prince Ye, would have kidnapped those witnesses?"

The Left Prime Minister smiled and looked at Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun felt that this question was obvious, but the Left Prime Minister asked him, there must be something fishy!

"What do you think, Lord Left Prime Minister?" He simply threw the question back.

He was too lazy to think about it, so it would be better for him to speak directly.

"Haha, the palms and backs of your hands are all made of flesh!" The left prime minister did not reply, but instead looked at his own hands and admired them.

The clone had been synchronizing the conversation between the left prime minister and Ye Liuyun, and told Xia Tianqiong and Ling Shuang.

The two of them thought the question was strange at first, but then they immediately reacted.

"Father doesn't want to punish the prince, and doesn't want to make things worse!"

The two of them reminded Ye Liuyun together, and Ye Liuyun suddenly realized.

"So that's it! In that case, the person who kidnapped the witness might have been arranged by Emperor Xia!"

The left prime minister also smiled: "Who knows, the result has not been found yet. It is probably a robber who ran out from somewhere!"

Ye Liuyun also nodded: "Yes! The Central Continent is so big, it is inevitable that there are some bold robbers. Let them kidnap, it won't have much impact!"

The left prime minister nodded and smiled, and said with appreciation: "Emperor Xia also thinks that this matter has a bad impact and must be investigated thoroughly. And he will also make some compensation to Prince Ye first!"

Ye Liuyun understood as soon as he heard it. Obviously, Emperor Xia meant that if Ye Liuyun did not pursue the matter, he would give him some compensation.

"Then thank Emperor Xia first!" Ye Liuyun said along with Zuo Xiang.

Zuo Xiang waved his hand: "Don't thank me, Lord Ye. You handed over all the witnesses to the Fourth Prince? With so many witnesses, didn't you leave yourself a way out?"

Ye Liuyun immediately thought: "It turns out that the dynasty has guessed that I left witnesses. But in this situation, if I say yes, it's obvious that I want to go against Emperor Xia and expose the prince!"

Xia Tianqiong also confirmed: "Yes, I also think that Zuo Xiang came to you specifically to ask you to suppress this matter."

"Yes! You should answer no!" Ling Shuang also suggested.

"Since he is suspicious, he can't believe me if I say no!" The clone asked for Ye Liuyun.

"Then say they are all dead!" Xia Tianqiong added.

Ye Liuyun also said to Zuo Xiang at this time: "I did keep a part of it..."

Zuo Xiang heard this, his face changed, staring at Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun continued calmly: "But... I forgot to separate them from the beasts, and they all became food for them! What should we do?"

"Hahaha! Lord Ye is really funny, and he can even talk without stopping!"

The left prime minister's expression immediately eased.

Then he pretended to express regret: "Dead? That's a pity! The dead are the best at keeping secrets. Now we have no clues!"

"Yeah! I haven't had time to interrogate him yet!" Ye Liuyun also pretended to express regret.

"This little guy! He's really good at pretending!" Zuo Xiang watched Ye Liuyun perform and laughed in his heart.

The same thing happened to Ye Liuyun. "This old guy, he beats around the bush, and I have to follow his performance! Now that we've finished talking, let's go!"

He was looking forward to ending the conversation quickly.

However, Zuo Xiang was still chatting with him slowly.

"I heard that the Crown Prince, the Fourth Prince, and the Seventh Prince are all from the same sect as Prince Ye?"

"Do I need to hear that?" Ye Liuyun complained in his heart.

But he still responded: "Yes, they are indeed fellow disciples of Qianlong Academy."

"Prince Ye seems to be closer to the Fourth Prince?" Zuo Xiang asked again tentatively.

"He wants to ask you which prince you support!" Ling Shuang explained to Ye Liuyun's clone.

"You can't say it! Even if you want to support someone in your heart, you can't say it!" Xia Tianqiong also reminded Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun had already heard the intention of Zuo Xiang, and he would not have said it even if the two of them did not remind him.

"I am not very familiar with the princes. It's just that the fourth prince is willing to help, so I went to him."

"Oh! That's it! Which prince does Ye Wang think has a better future?" Zuo Xiang continued to test.

Ye Liuyun laughed: "Which prince has a future, Emperor Xia should know better than me. I am not interested in the affairs of the court! I am just a martial artist, I only want to practice and improve my strength, how can I think so much!"

Zuo Xiang nodded: "Indeed, which prince has the most promising future, only Emperor Xia knows it best!"

He paused and looked at Ye Liuyun. His meaning was very clear, Emperor Xia had the final say on this matter, and Ye Liuyun should not get involved blindly!

Zuo Xiang saw that he had listened, and continued to smile and said: "Ye Wang is a prince now, how can he not care about the affairs of the court! Besides... I am afraid that there are some things that you can't help, and you can't ignore them even if you want to!"

Ye Liuyun heard this and felt that what he said made sense.

For example, in the affairs of the Fourth Prince and the Crown Prince, he was unknowingly involved in it, and it was not easy for him to extricate himself.
