Chapter 130: CH 130

Speak of the devil and he shall appear, imperial uncle's beard stuck up, turning to look at the door, Xiao Yi Chen wore a purple prince's gown, a jade crown bound on his head as he strode over, the wind picked up the hem of his gown, revealing his black gold cloud embroidered boots.

Xiao Yi Mo remained seated in high position, looking like he was watching a good show, one moment the imperial uncle had entered the palace to complain, the next Xiao Yi Chen arrived, it seems there must be a reason, the recent faceless female corpses in the capital had caused everyone to be anxious, as the emperor his hair was turning white from anxiety, the Ministry of Justice, government office, Justice of Peace, the three law enforcement departments combined forces to undertake this task, but as before there wasn't a trace of the killer.

Now a new problem arose before the old is solved, imperial uncle complained Xiao Yi Chen smashed up his store, this sounded very interesting.

Xiao Yi Chen entered the palace hall giving his greetings then tilted his head to glance at imperial uncle at the side, he gave a smile: "Imperial uncle, you're also here?"

Imperial uncle gave a cold snort, turning his head to the side, using this action to show his unhappiness.

Xiao Yi Chen smiled lifting his head to look at Xiao Yi Mo cupping his hands: "Your majesty, this official brother's wife opened a restaurant in the western outskirt of the city called Qingfengyashe, did you know?"

Hearing Qingfengyashe imperial uncle's brows twitched, even though this restaurant wasn't opened in the city, it was very well-known, those who ate at Qingfengyashe before couldn't forget it, this badly effected the business of every restaurant in the city, imperial uncle who had also recently purchased Deqing restaurant was very anxious over this.

It needed to be understood he had invested a lot of money yet there was no return thus he blamed Qingfengyashe on the western outskirt of the city for everything, he heard the food there wasn't just delicious it was even cheaper than the those in the capital by around eighty percent.

This made him feel very threatened, that's why last night he bribed the ruffians to cause trouble for Qingfengyashe and conveniently smash up the store, dash their spirits, warning them its not easy to open a store in the capital.

Imperial uncle controlled his train of thoughts to hear Xiao Yi Mo nod: "Of course we know, younger brother's wife asked us to personally write the name, we even went to Qingfengyashe to eat, the taste really was unforgettable."

Xiao Yi Chen nodded, revealing a slight regretful expression: "Does your majesty know, Qingfengyashe's signboard has been broken in half by someone?" That person had slapped your majesty's face.

Xiao Yi Mo frowned with a grave expression on hearing this: "What happened?" Someone had broken the signboard he had personally written, who had such audacity.

Imperial uncle cupped his hands in an attempt to change the subject, "Your majesty!" Your majesty your attention can't be redirected by prince Chen, didn't you say you'll get justice for me?

Xiao Yi Mo waved his hand: "Imperial uncle, keep calm, wait for us to finish hearing what imperial younger brother has to say."

Imperial uncle: "..."

Xiao Yi Chen tilted his head to glance at imperial uncle smiling: "Imperial uncle don't get angry, you came a step before this prince, I'm sure you've said whatever you wanted to."

Imperial uncle remained silent, he had acted weak to win the emperor's sympathy and wait for the emperor to issue a decree to punish Xiao Yi Chen, but he didn't imagine Xiao Yi Chen to arrive, the discussion completely changed directions.

Xiao Yi Chen cupped his hands saying: "Your majesty, this official brother isn't completely clear what happened, it happened yesterday night, maybe this prince should invite the princess to the palace to explain in detail."

Xiao Yi Mo was about to speak, imperial uncle turned to face Xiao Yi Chen: "Prince Chen, you're deliberately diverting the emperor's attention and line of sight? This humble servant just reported you have exploited your status and influence to smash up the store this humble servant just purchased, now you speak of your princess's matter as soon as you arrived, it's better to deal with the matter from this morning first, prince Chen, you need to give this humble servant an explanation!"

Imperial uncle's angry expression, if Xiao Yi Chen wasn't in his position, he really wanted to go up to him and slap him.

Xiao Yi Mo coughed, returning to the topic: "Imperial brother, imperial uncle said you brought people to smash up his store this morning, is that true?"

Xiao Yi Chen blinked, like he was thinking deeply, after a moment he smiled: "This morning this prince went out with princess, princess said last night someone had paid ruffians to smash up her restaurant, she took ten guards from the prince's residence to find those ruffians to see who actually incited those ruffians to her store, by such coincidence, my princess just smashed up a store, imperial uncle came to complain to you, saying this prince smashed up his store, could that Deqing restaurant belongs to imperial uncle?"

Imperial uncle's face turned black, "Prince, you're falsely accusing me, this humble servant has always been assiduous, scrupulously following by the rules, how could I bribe ruffians to smash up the princess's restaurant, this humble servant has been wrongly accused, your majesty, your majesty, you need to seek justice for this humble servant!" As he spoke he knelt before Xiao Yi Mo, strongly kowtowing three times.

Xiao Yi Chen's arms were crossed over his chest: "This prince feels even more wronged than imperial uncle, this prince has been given an disloyal, injustice hat to wear by imperial uncle, when did this virtuous prince cause trouble for no reason, when did I abuse power?"

Xiao Yi Mo rubbed his aching temple, this morning the two of them have been talking back and forth, the man says the man is right, the woman says the woman is right, it was so noisy his head hurt.

Xiao Yi Mo patted his imperial throne, the anger of an emperor, dignity emitting from his whole body, the palace immediately fell silent.

Xiao Yi Mo said: "Enough, both of you calm down, someone come, call for princess Chen, we want to hear her version of events, if it really was princess Chen who recklessly caused disturbance, we will punish her accordingly, justice for imperial uncle, prince Chen, you have no objections right?"

Xiao Yi Chen cupped his hands to indicate he had no objections, imperial uncle's face also had a satisfied expression.

Prince Chen's residence, Ji Yu Qing on hearing imperial uncle had entered the palace to file a complain against princess Chen smashing up his store without a reason and recklessly caused trouble, began to laugh loudly, "Ji Ling Xue, serve you right, stirring up trouble with the name of princess Chen, see how you'll end up now." Before she could make a move against Ji Ling Xue someone already helped her vent her anger, this made her feel very refreshed.

She opened a secret box taking out three pieces of paper, seeing the tightly packed words on the pages, her lips lifted: "I'll add oil to the fire."

That day she had impersonated Ji Ling Xue in the study she had wanted to tell Xiao Yi Chen about this, she hadn't expected Xiao Yi Chen to return and happily speak of coming across the faceless female corpse, she was so scared she forgot all about this.

The moment Ji Ling Xue was invited into the palace, a new rumour spread around the city...

In the teahouse, a storyteller wearing a scholarly gown stood on stage, patting his hand with his folded fan: "Hello everyone, fellow countryman, elders, today I'll speak of princess Chen."

Someone asked below the stage, "Didn't storyteller say yesterday you'll speak of Da Ma's golden sword, what's good about princess Chen she's just a foolish princess?"

The storyteller waved the fan in his hand: "You're wrong, wrong, this princess Chen is wise and bright, not like the foolish princess in the rumours, it's said when princess Chen was born there were rosy clouds, a fortune seller said, this girl will have a rich and honourable life, not long after the head of Ji family Ji Bai Chuan made a lot of money, and as a result was fond of princess Chen."

Speaking up to this point, the storyteller's tone changed, he continued: "However, there is a secret...princess Chen Ji Ling Xue isn't the daughter of Ji Bai Chuan, even though she's the daughter of the first wife, it was only because Ji Bai Chuan was infatuated with her mother Liu Mei E, it's said when her mother married into the Ji family she was already pregnant, cuckolding the Ji family for so many years."

The teahouse instantly became rowdy, the commoners were especially obsessed with gossip, the room buzzed with lively conversation, "What, such good upbringing as falling pregnant before marriage, the Liu family raised such a number one beauty?"

"Ai, ai, ai, I heard princess Chen's mother Liu Mei E had runaway from home before she got married, it seems she eloped with her lover, Liu family is one with influence so they chased her down...but lord Ji is so pitiful..."

The storyteller's fan closed with a bang: "This person is right, Liu Mei E did run away from home before she got married, the child in her belly didn't belong to Ji Bai Chuan, who is the real father of princess Chen?"

After the storyteller managed to hook everyone onto his story, he tapped his hand with the fan: "If you want to know, please listen to the explanation tomorrow."

Chi Feng's hand shook as he sat on the second floor drinking tea, his lips twitched, he came to merely drink tea, why did he hear such a staggering news, he couldn't not do anything.

It was clear this rumour had been deliberately released by someone, taking advantage of the fact Ji Ling Xue had caused havoc at Deqing restaurant today.

Inside the imperial study, Xiao Yi Mo and Xiao Yi Chen sat opposite each other drinking tea, imperial uncle was still seething, he had turned to the door, waiting for Ji Ling Xue's arrival.

Ji Ling Xue did not come wearing princess Chen's orthodox clothing, she was given the message by an eunuch while she was on the streets and directly put into a carriage, Ji Ling Xue paid her respects wearing her rouge alluring clothes then asked: "I wonder why your majesty hastily called me here?" Having spoken her line of sight fell on Xiao Yi Chen who was smiling slightly and the imperial uncle who didn't look happy at all.

Imperial uncle opened his mouth saying: "Princess Chen, do you know who owns the store you smashed up today?"

Ji Ling Xue gave a casual oh, "Imperial uncle you're the one who sent ruffians to smash up Qingfengyashe, injuring people, and stole the recipe book I wrote?"

Imperial uncle's beard trembled, "Princess Chen, you can eat indiscriminately but you can't talk irresponsibly, your majesty, this humble servant has never directed anyone, there must be a misunderstanding!"

Xiao Yi Mo glanced at imperial uncle who was pretending to be pitiful, raising his finger he asked: "Princess Chen, what happened to Qingfengyashe, we heard someone had even broke the signboard we personally wrote?"

Ji Ling Xue nodded her head firmly, "This is what happened..." She repeated what she had heard and seen, "This morning, I got my secret guard to investigate the ruffians, I approached a ruffian and from his own mouth I found out Deqing restaurant has the signature dishes of my Qingfengyashe, and that cook can confirm, he has the recipe book, however his food didn't have the same taste, if your majesty doesn't believe me, you can summon that ruffian and cook for questioning."

"A bunch of nonsense!" Imperial uncle threw his sleeves, "Princess Chen, it's nothing for Deqing restaurant's cook to create a signature dish the same as Qingfengyashe, for that reason you smashed up the store, tore down it's sign?"
