The Return of the Demon

Chapter 341 Requesting an Imperial Edict

"Your Majesty, it is widely rumored that I poisoned my father in order to marry the Ninth Princess, for wealth and honor, and to show my loyalty."

"I have now become a conscienceless and unforgivable criminal."

Ning Chen glanced at Emperor Xuan and answered truthfully.

Emperor Xuan actually laughed, but he was angry.

In order to marry the Ninth Princess, to show his loyalty, he murdered his father... These people probably don't know how much effort he put in to match Ning Chen and Huai'an?

"How stupid... The person who plotted against you behind your back is really stupid and evil!"

"I will issue an order right now. Those who speak without restraint and blindly follow the rumors will be arrested and punished."

Ning Chen hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, this will only backfire... Even if you suppress the spread of rumors on the surface, you can't stop the people from saying it in private."

Emperor Xuan frowned, "Ning Chen, you know that three people can make a tiger. If this rumor spreads, it will be very bad for your reputation."

"If it is not curbed, it will become more and more mysterious, enough to ruin your reputation!"

Ning Chen leaned over, "I understand!"

"So, it only takes one move to break it!"

Emperor Xuan looked at him curiously, "What can you do?"

Ning Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "All you need is an imperial edict to give Ning Ziming poisoned wine."

Emperor Xuan's eyes flashed and he immediately understood.

He stared at Ning Chen, "You little brat, your brain works fast, isn't it?"

Ning Chen smiled flatteringly, "Your Majesty is a man of great talent and strategy. I am so clever that I am not even worthy of carrying your shoes!"

Emperor Xuan snorted coldly and glared at him.

"I understand, you go back first!"

"You are about to get married with Huai'an, be careful and don't make any more troubles?"

Ning Chen leaned over, "I obey your order!"

"Your Majesty, I have another request?"

Emperor Xuan couldn't help but glare at him again, "Speak."

"Please pay attention to the people who attack me in the court tomorrow."

Emperor Xuan thought for a while and understood, nodding slightly.

......

Ning Chen came out of the palace, it was dark.

He rode his beloved Diao Chan and came to the Jiaofangsi.

Yudie saw Ning Chen and was worried, "Ning Lang, are you okay?"

"Me? What can happen to me?"

Ning Chen looked at her in confusion.

Yudie whispered, "Now there are bad things about you everywhere."

Ning Chen smiled and said, "They say I poisoned my father for fame and fortune and to show my loyalty?"

Yudie nodded.

Ning Chen smiled, "That's a misunderstanding, don't worry about it!"

"You are so open-minded. If this rumor is not stopped, it will become true if it spreads."

Zi Su lifted the curtain and walked out from the inner room.

She must have just woken up not long ago. Her tone was a little lazy and her face was flushed.

Ning Chen laughed, "The mouth is on someone else, and I can't block someone else's mouth."

As he said that, his smile gradually became perverted, looking at Zi Su's rosy little mouth, "I seem to be able to only block your mouth."

Zi Su's pretty face instantly turned red, and she glared at him unhappily... Then she snorted and went out.

Ning Chen smiled, walked to the low table in front of the screen and sat down, half leaning on the soft spread.

Yudie came forward, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of tea for Ning Chen. She was still worried, "Ning Lang, are you really okay? Sister Zisu is right. Rumors can become true if they are spread."

"Don't worry, I have a way to solve it!"

Ning Chen picked up the teacup and looked at Yudie kneeling on the soft couch. Her willow waist and hips formed a perfect and attractive curve. He couldn't help but smile.

"Yudie, are you feeling better?"

Yudie was slightly startled. Seeing Ning Chen's fiery eyes, her little face turned red. She lowered her head and whispered, "It still hurts a little. If Ning Lang wants it, I can do it."

Yudie's obedient behavior made him feel distressed. It was all because of Zisu, the quack doctor, who made him act like a beast last night.

"First, take care of yourself. There is a long way to go. There is no need to rush at this moment."

After a while, Zisu came in with a medicine bowl.

She put the medicine on the low table.

Ning Chen took a look, "Yangyuan Jiuyang Decoction?"

Zisu nodded.

Ning Chen was speechless, "How dare you give me the medicine? Yudie is feeling a little uncomfortable... If you drink it like yesterday, you will be responsible, and you will have a hard time tonight."

"I have reduced the dosage, it should be fine... If you are still the same as last night, then you are definitely pretending."

Zi Su is very confident in her expertise.

Ning Chen was too lazy to talk nonsense, picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all. If he drank it like last night, it would be Zi Su's own fault.

After a while, Ning Chen felt a stream of heat surging up along his lower abdomen, instantly spreading throughout his body, making him feel hot all over and dry mouth.

He grabbed the teapot on the table and took a few gulps.

Zi Su stared at him vigilantly, "How is it?"

Ning Chen took a few more sips of tea, "I'm afraid I have to trouble Miss Zi Su to show off her eloquence."

Zi Su took a few steps back, ready to run away at any time.

Not only did her lips swell last night, but her voice was hoarse.

"Ning Lang, if you feel uncomfortable, I can do it."

Ning Chen smiled, "It's okay, I feel much better today than yesterday, not so hungry."

Zi Su glared at Ning Chen, "I told you, I have weakened the effect of the medicine."

Ning Chen smiled bitterly, "Please weaken it a little more next time... You guys can chat, I have something to do, I'm leaving first!"

Ning Chen ran away.

Although the effect of the drug has been weakened, the impulse is still very strong.

Yudie was tormented by him last night. Ning Chen felt sorry for her body and left the Jiaofangsi, fearing that he could not help it.

After coming out, Ning Chen felt much more comfortable when the cold wind blew.

Riding Diaochan, he rushed home.

Halfway, a black shadow suddenly walked out of the alley next to him.

Ning Chen was startled and subconsciously drew his sword.

When he saw the person clearly, it was Silent.

He sheathed the sword and said unhappily: "Next time, come to me openly. The more sneaky you are, the easier it is to attract attention."

Silent said in a deep voice: "I'm used to it!"

"What do you want to see me for?"

Silent said: "I just received news from my master that the situation has changed... Song Tiancheng should have discovered what happened between her and you."

"There are Song Tiancheng's people among the officials of Daxuan. The situation is not good for you."

Ning Chen said oh.

Silent looked at him strangely, "My Lord, you are not worried?"

Ning Chen snorted, "So what if he knows? Does he have evidence? Without evidence, he can't do anything to me."

"My master said that she was worried that Song Tiancheng would murder your child."

Ning Chen's eyes narrowed.

"She asked you to come to me, so she must have a plan, right?"

Silent nodded, took out a letter and handed it to Ning Chen, "My master said that after you read the letter, you will know what to do?"

Ning Chen took the letter and put it in his arms, and asked lightly: "You have been dormant in Daxuan Kyoto for so long? You should have a lot of information, right?"

Silent said: "It depends on what my Lord wants to ask?"

Ning Chen thought for a while and asked: "Do you know the fourth prince of Daxuan?"
