Chapter 202: The Difference Between Cloud and Mud 13

During that time, Zhan Ye and Princess Ying Ye's seats were right next to hers so he must've seen that scene clearly.

In her heart, she slightly let out a sigh. At the same time, she felt it was a little funny in her heart that it was due to this that he had misunderstood her.

However, there was nothing wrong with making the best out of a mistake.

At the moment, Huang Bei Yue nodded her head saying: "Princess Zhang had done me a favor in the past. I am not able to repay her back so I can only repay her back through her descendant."

When Princess Zhang was mentioned, Zhan Ye's face flashed through a trace of regret: "Royal Aunt is the best person on this world. Royal Father Emperor respects her a lot. Her death, even up to now Royal Father Emperor is still unable to accept this. These four years, Royal Father Emperor has never been to the prefecture of Princess Zhang. He had only heard from Xiao Yuan Cheng report back to him that Princess Bei Yue was living well. However, a couple days ago at the imperial palace banquet, Royal Father Emperor had seen Princess Bei Yue and just found out that all these years that he had been fooled around with. Under great anger, he had almost executed the whole family Xiao."

Huang Bei Yue secretly was shocked. As it turned out, behind all of this, there was a lot of hidden meanings behind it. She had no idea of this. It was no wonder why Xiao Yuan Cheng was that afraid. So actually the Emperor was infuriated that day because he really adored Huang Bei Yue to its extreme.

She had heard that Princess Zhang and the Emperor had deep affections for each other since childhood. Back then, the Emperor was faced with troubles in a neighboring country and it was Princess Zhang who, in spite of the numerous obstacles ahead, had personally brought people along to save the Emperor.

This affection between brothers and sisters was probably never erasable in the Emperor's heart.

She thought of the past events of Princess Zhang before she died then she thought of when Concubine Xue had killed Princess Zhang with a bowl of poisonous medicine. Within Huang Bei Yue's heart, a feeling of hatred rose.

"Zhan Ye, if Princess Zhang was murdered by someone, will the Emperor investigate deeply into that?"

Zhan Ye was stunned. The handsome face flashed through a glimpse of surprise: "You, what are you saying?"

As soon as the words blurted out of her mouth, Huang Bei Yue regretted it. She hadn't gotten evidence that Princess Zhang was killed by Concubine Xue yet and now that she had randomly blurted this out, wasn't she letting Zhan Ye be worried?

"I was just guessing this might be a possibility. After all, Princess Zhang was my benefactor. No matter what, I am not able to accept the fact that she had died an ultimate death." The tone of her voice was calm again, unable to hear if anything was wrong about it.

"So this is why ah." Zhan Ye's heart had relaxed too. Before he had heard her words, he was really startled. He thought that she knew something he didn't.

Princess Zhang had died due to a sickness. If she was really murdered then Royal Father Emperor will definitely look into that.

"You should go rest soon. I will go now." Huang Bei Yue jumped onto the Ice Spirit Luan Bird's back, saying goodbye and leaving.

Zhan Ye watched as her shadow disappeared within the night then turned around to walk into the room. Just as he stepped through the door, he stopped. He turned around to order the servant in the yard: "Yong An, Princess Zhang's cause of death, go investigate that again. I want every little detail relating to this."

"Yes, Crown Prince." As that servant opened its mouth, the voice was sharp and thin. It was actually a palace eunuch.

Huang Bei Yue secretly returned back to Liu Yun Ge. Dong Ling was obviously still waiting for her, despite how tired she was. When she saw her walking in with a not too good look on, she asked about her worriedly.

"Young miss, how are you?"

Huang Bei Yue took off her cloak and placed it on the bed. The voice was stuffy: "Dong Ling, back when Concubine Xue had placed the poison, did you personally witness it?"

Once Dong Ling heard what she had asked for, her eyes turned red. She shook her head, responding: "Dong Ling wasn't present when it happened but the person present was Princess Zhang's Aunt Jian Qiu whom she brought out from the imperial palace. But once Princess Zhang had passed away, Aunt Jian Qiu had also committed suicide."

Huang Bei Yue remembered this Aunt Jian Qiu. She was just like Princess Zhang. Both of them were a gentle and kind woman, always nice to her since childhood.
