Chapter 190 Dong Lihuang is unlucky
After Emperor Jingming slammed the gavel and sentenced the vicious mother-in-law to ten years in prison, she would be imprisoned today. After the case was closed, Ye Shengxin walked to the side of Emperor Jingming while the evil mother-in-law was crying and shouting.
[Don't mention it, even if Your Majesty is no longer Your Majesty, this matter is handled very smoothly. ]
[Thinking back to when His Majesty helped the victim collect the debt from General Meng in the Golden Palace, His Majesty is really a good one.]
Ye Xingxin secretly praised him, and suddenly met the gaze of Emperor Jingming, and returned the favor with a smile: "Little Duck, you have worked hard today. What do you want for lunch? I will ask someone to make it."
Emperor Jingming stared at Ye Xingxin's face and noticed the wrinkles between her eyebrows that had not yet faded. He asked with concern, "Did you suffer any injustice in Sifang Pavilion?"
Speaking of this, Ye Shengxin couldn't hold back the anger in her chest, and she immediately forgot about Emperor Jingming's identity as an emperor, and just regarded him as a little duck who had taken care of her all the way.
He told Dong Lihuang all the troubles he had just faced, and finally snorted coldly: "You dare to threaten me without paying me a penny. He can live in that leaky house or not. Anyway, I am not the one who suffers."
All the ministers: ... Lord Ye, don't go too far. His Majesty is the real His Majesty, not a duckling. As a subject, you shouldn't go too far.
Emperor Jingming frowned and said, "This man really doesn't know what's good for him."
Ministers:...
The ministers dropped their jaws and asked, "Your Majesty, would you like to hear what you said?"
Whenever Crown Prince Dongli came in previous years, you always asked the people in the Ministry of Rites to try their best to satisfy him. Why is it that when the matter falls to Lord Ye, their attitude is... Oh, I forgot. It's because they value their position in your heart too much. Sorry, I'll leave now.
Ye Xingxin raised his chin and said, "Yeah, I shouldn't spoil him."
Emperor Jingming nodded: "As long as he is not dead, don't worry about the rest."
After these words fell, there was no movement for a long time. Emperor Jingming raised his eyebrows and said, "Xinxin, what's wrong with you?"
He reflected: “But what’s wrong with this?”
Ye Shengxin rubbed his hands guiltily and commented with an awkward smile: "No, I just feel... Little Duck, you are quite nice to me."
Emperor Jingming suppressed his anger, took the blank file and carefully recorded today's case. Ye Shengxin was grinding ink on the side and asking Emperor Jingming from time to time about the process of solving the case of the evil mother-in-law poisoning her daughter-in-law.
Emperor Jingming answered all the questions one by one and gave advice patiently. Ye Shengxin nodded from time to time, looking like he was learning.
Ministers:…
How come I only realized now that His Majesty is actually helping Ye Shengxin deal with matters belonging to the Jingzhao Yin.
Wow... They are being jealous again. So angry.
The prince looked back at the baskets of memorials on the imperial desk, which he had to stay up all night to review. The smile on his face that appeared because of Dong Lihuang's fracture quickly disappeared.
It is confirmed that Ye Shengxin is the biological son of the emperor, he was just born to work.

At night, inside the Sifang Pavilion.
After a flurry of activity, the bustling reception hall finally quieted down. The servant who was taking care of Dong Lihuang waited for his master to go to sleep, then quietly and slowly retreated from the room.
On the bed, Dong Lihuang's heavy breathing gradually became slow and light. He finally fell into a deep sleep. Suddenly, there was a loud thunder in the sky. With a loud bang, lightning illuminated the dark sky and Dong Lihuang woke up suddenly.
The sound of rain hitting the roof tiles came from outside the window, and he frowned uncomfortably.
As the rain got heavier, the annoying sound and the pain in his right calf made Dong Lihuang more and more irritated.
He called out to the outside of the house: "Someone come."
With a loud "boom", the thunder drowned out his voice.
Dong Lihuang: ...
After a pause, he spoke again: "Someone come."
"Boom." Another loud thunder.
Dong Lihuang: ...
He pounded the bed angrily and stared at the ceiling with fierce and sharp eyes. Was God deliberately going against him?
He shouted again in disbelief, but another thunder drowned out his voice.
Dong Lihuang sat up, put on his shoes and got out of bed, preparing to go outside the door to call for help himself. However, just as he took a step on one foot, there was a "bang" and a tile from the roof fell down, hitting the unsuspecting Dong Lihuang on the head.
He touched the source of the pain and found blood on his fingers. The bright red color made him sneer in his heart. The pent-up anger rushed straight to his head and he was about to call for help again.
Everything in front of his eyes suddenly went dark, his body tilted, and he fainted from being so angry.
The cold rain fell from the gap in the roof and landed on Dong Lihuang's broad chest, quickly wetting a large area.
The tiny raindrops at the edge swept onto his weak and pale face, slowly soaking his thick black hair like ink silk, and the blood silently spread in all directions along the flowing water marks.

"Anle, you are not lying to me, are you?" Standing at the gate of Sifang Pavilion, Ye Shengxin's face was full of disbelief.
No, she hadn't seen Dong Lihuang for just a few hours, but this guy was so miserable? He was so sick that he couldn't get out of bed?
And that leg. How unlucky it is for a man who looks agile to be so careless as to trip over the threshold.
Ye Xingxin stared at the craftsman who was repairing the roof above Dong Lihuang's former residence and snorted coldly, "Yesterday I asked him to find someone to repair it but he didn't. Now he's really caught in the rain, he deserves it."
Knowing Dong Lihuang's fate, Ye Shengxin let out a sigh of relief and only then did she think to ask Rong Anle why she came here. She didn't want such a good girl like Anle to be harassed by that prince.
"I have been ordered to protect Prince Consort Li's safety." Rong Anle said.
This answer made Ye Shengxin confused. Li Aotian didn't look like the kind of person who would cause trouble, so why should he be protected? The one he should protect should be Dong Lihuang who had met with bad luck.
These words came out unconsciously, and Rong Anle smiled mysteriously: "Who knows? As subordinates, we just follow orders..." Okay.
"Prince Consort Li, let me take care of this. Just stand by and give orders as you wish. Don't move." Rong Anle glanced at Li Aotian who was carrying a ladder and preparing to go up to the roof. He ran over quickly, snatched the ladder from his hand with one hand, and stopped him from moving forward with the other hand.
He said solemnly: "You are the son-in-law of a country. These things are the work of craftsmen. You should not interfere."
Li Aotian had his things snatched away by this female general three times. He was full of questions. Why did this female general, who had been here for an hour, just focus on him? Didn't she have other things to do?
"Aotian." Ye Shengxin was pushed over by Dongshi.
Seeing his fellow villager, the doubts in his heart were immediately thrown away. Li Aotian smiled and said, "You left in a hurry yesterday and didn't bring any food with you. Don't forget it today."
Ye Shengxin agreed and asked Dong Shi to go with Li Aotian's entourage to get it. At the same time, he sent out several flavors of hot pot base that he had prepared.
"Try this, I think I made it pretty good."
Li Aotian was pleasantly surprised: "I will definitely try it when I have time."
After a few pleasantries, Ye Shengxin headed towards Dong Lihuang's new residence.
