Chapter 744: Evidence
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Oh my god, His Highness has returned to the residence!” he thought.
In less than ten minutes, even the fish raised in the residence’s pool knew about this. The entire prince’s residence exploded.
How long had it been since Lord Jing’an had set foot in the lord’s residence?
It was obvious from the fact that more than half of the servants in the residence had never seen him before.
“Your Highness, the princess caught a cold a few days ago. In order to take care of her, the princess consort did not rest last night. She should still be catching up on her sleep. However, I’ve already sent someone to invite her over.” The butler explained as he followed the carriage. As he spoke, he kept winking at a servant kneeling by the road.
Xuanyuan Ce pretended not to see it.
The carriage stopped in front of the main hall in the front courtyard and entered the central room. The butler got someone to bring tea and snacks and waited respectfully at the side, not daring to make a sound.
About ten minutes later, Consort Jing’an, Madam Yu, walked in with the help of a maidservant.
She stood in the middle of the hall and bowed. “Greetings, Your Highness.”
She was wearing a plain white cloud-patterned dress with a gauze dress of the same color. She had phoenix-like eyebrows and bright eyes. She was dignified, elegant, and had an otherworldly aura.
As a first- grade princess consort, her clothes could not be considered gorgeous, but it could not hide the elegance in her eyes and the noble elegance in her movements.
However, this was normal. The aristocratic families had always used the women in their families as bargaining chips. They had let them learn needlework, zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting since they were young. How could a woman raised like this be inferior to anyone?
Xuanyuan Ce put down his teacup and said without looking up, “All of you, leave.”
“Yes.” The servant hurriedly left.
On the other side, when Xuanyuan Ye heard that Xuanyuan Ce had returned to the residence, she got up from bed in surprise.
She grabbed the maidservant who sent the message and asked, “Is my father really back?”
“Princess, how would I dare to lie to you? It’s absolutely true. The princess consort has already gone to meet him.”
Xuanyuan Ye regained her rationality slightly and muttered, “In the past, even if Father returned to Phoenix City, he wouldn’t easily step into the residence. Why did he return today?”
“I don’t know.”
“Forget it, what’s the use of asking you?” Xuanyuan Ye waved her off. After thinking for a moment, she instructed, “Someone, help me put on my makeup.” “Princess, you haven’t recovered yet. The princess consort asked you to…”
“Cut the crap. Isn’t it just a small cold? The imperial physician said that I’m fine, but Mother made a mountain out of a molehill.” As she spoke, she walked into the side room specially used to store clothes and dug out all the dresses.
“Come and help me see which one to wear.”
The two maidservants had no choice but to help.
In the main hall of the front courtyard, Xuanyuan Ce did not ask her to rise, so Madam Yu maintained her bow. It was not until she felt her calves begin to swell that she heard Xuanyuan Ce speak.
“Princess Consort, don’t you have anything to say to me?”
Madam Yu lowered her eyes. “I haven’t seen Your Highness for a year. It’s rare for His Highness to return to the residence, so I naturally have a lot to say. I’m just afraid that Your Highness will be annoyed by it.”
“Is that so? Then tell me how you stole my token and instructed my men to kill for you, and how you bribed the border guards to target people.”
Madam Yu clenched her fists. “What are you talking about, Your Highness? I don’t understand.’

Bang! A teacup shattered in front of her, and the tea splashed onto her skirt, leaving some tea stains.
“Madam Yu, how dare you?” Xuanyuan Ce shouted sternly.
Madam Yu knelt down unhurriedly. “If you want to accuse me, don’t worry. If Your Highness believes that I did those things, show me the evidence. Otherwise, I won’t admit to anything I didn’t do.”
Xuanyuan Ce looked at her deeply, his eyes cold. “Do you really think I don’t have evidence?”
“If Your Highness has evidence, submit it to the Clan Residence and His Majesty. If they all say that I’m guilty, I’m willing to be punished.” With that, she bent down and kowtowed.
Xuanyuan Ce narrowed his eyes and was about to say something when a light yellow figure rushed in.
“Mother, Mother, what are you doing? Get up quickly.” Xuanyuan Ye pulled Madam Yu away in a panic.
She saw that the place where she was kneeling was filled with shattered teacups. The tea on the ground was even dyed red by the blood flowing from her knees. She was so anxious that tears fell from his eyes. “Mother, you’re injured. Someone, call the imperial physician.”
“You’re not allowed to go.” Madam Yu waved her hand away and knelt down. “I’ve been married to Your Highness for more than ten years. I’ve always been dutiful and adhered to my duty, afraid that I would tarnish His Highness’s reputation by taking a wrong step. However, Your Highness hasn’t been home for a long time. As soon as he returned, he forced several groundless, trumDed-uD crimes on me. I’m reallv terrified. If Your Highness reallv hates me so much, just divorce me.”
Tears filled her eyes, but she held them back.
“Mother!” Xuanyuan Ye exclaimed and suddenly turned to look at Xuanyuan Ce. Her eyes were no longer filled with the usual admiration. “Father, you’re too much. Do you know that because of you, the commoners are saying that Mother forced you to not return to Phoenix City? Grandmother blames Mother for not being able to win your heart. Do you know how much Mother has suffered because of you? However, she has never complained even once!” Madam Yu interrupted her. “Ye’er, you can’t be rude to your father.”
Xuanyuan Ye clenched her fists and knelt down beside Madam Yu. “If Father really wants to divorce Mother, just chase me away so that we can make room for that mother and daughter.”
As soon as she finished speaking, panic flashed across Madam Yu’s eyes. She said sternly, “Ye ler.”
The corners of Xuanyuan Ce’s mouth curled into a mocking smile. “I didn’t know that you two hated me so much.”
“Madam Yu, do you still remember what you told me back then?”
Madam Yu’s pupils constricted. “Your Highness!”
Xuanyuan Ce stood up. “I never cared about what you did. I even allowed you to give birth to a daughter, but you shouldn’t have attacked them. You’ve crossed the line.”
“I originally thought that if you admitted it calmly, I would leave you some dignity. Since you don’t know how to repent, don’t blame me for being merciless. ”
“You want evidence, right? Alright, I’ll find evidence for you.”
“Your Highness!” Madam Yu panicked completely.
Xuanyuan Ye was confused, but she had an inexplicable bad feeling. She stood up and blocked Xuanyuan Ce ls way. She said with tears in her eyes, “Why? I’m also your daughter!”
Xuanyuan Ce glanced at Madam Yu. “Are you?”
With that, he strode away.
Xuanyuan Ye staggered two steps back and ran to Madam Yu. She asked in fear, “Mother, what did Father mean by what he said just now? Am I not his daughter?”
Madam Yu closed her eyes. When she opened them again, there was a fierce glint in her eyes.
She pulled Xuanyuan Ye into her arms and coaxed her softly, “Of course you’re
His Highness’s daughter. You’re the most respected princess in our Xuanyuan Kingdom. I’m useless and can’t win your father’s favor, causing you to be disliked by him too. I’ve let you down. Don’t blame me.”
“No, it’s not Mother’s fault. It’s Father’s fault. It’s that b*tch..”
