All Worlds Beg the Villainess to Act Like a Human

Chapter 361: Chapter 361: The Abused Genre’s Heroine Awakens (37)

Jing Yunzhou was stunned for quite a while before he understood what entering the palace meant.

At that moment, he felt a chill in his groin, and his gaze towards Qiann Yan carried a hint of fear, a subconscious fear he couldn’t control.

So, the third brother is gravely ill because Yanyan sent him into the palace?

No wonder, no wonder the usually arrogant third brother has been cowering in the Prince Mansion for so long, turns out he has become a cripple, haha.

The bit of fear that Qiann Yan brought to Jing Yunzhou earlier had long dissipated.

”Didn’t expect this,” Jing Yunzhou said worriedly, ”Such a big matter, why didn’t you tell me?”

”What’s the use in telling you? Can you catch that flower thief and enact justice?”

Jing Yunzhou smiled bitterly, ”You’re still angry, fine, you have every right to be angry, let’s not talk more about this. I’m just happy that you’re well. I came today to see how you are doing.”

Qiann Yan did not answer, waiting for Jing Yunzhou to continue.

Seeing Qiann Yan not responding, Jing Yunzhou felt uncomfortable; he had never experienced such treatment. In front of her, he always felt a bit lower.

After all, he is the Crown Prince, yet she repeatedly does not give him face. Does she really think he can indulge her endlessly?

”Yanyan, right now there is a matter concerning the survival of Great Zhou, I might need your help.” Jing Yunzhou spoke directly, unconcerned with other issues, ”Had I known earlier, I would definitely not have delayed, should have brought you to the Eastern Palace, so you wouldn’t suffer so much and get caught in this vortex.”

Qiann Yan asked this time, ”What is the matter?”

”The third brother...” Jing Yunzhou whispered, ”might be a spy for Chen Country.”

Qiann Yan frowned, ”How do you know, what evidence do you have?”

”The evidence is in the third brother’s room. There is a secret chamber in his room; once we find that chamber, we can get all the evidence.”

Qiann Yan was somewhat puzzled, ”Since you have such accurate information, why don’t you report it to Father so he can directly arrange for someone to search?”

Jing Yunzhou hesitated, ”Actually, I cannot be sure of the truth of this matter. If someone is framing him, doing so would harm the relationship between me and the third brother, and it could cause turmoil.”

”So why are you looking for me?”

”I need Yanyan to verify the truth, only then can we decide on this matter. After you verify, we will report it to Father together.”

Qiann Yan lowered her eyes, fiddling with her beautiful fingers, should she verify the truth first?

Then report to the Emperor together?

Ashui had previously spoken clearly about this matter to Jing Yunzhou, and he firmly believed it.

As she expected, he wouldn’t directly go to the Emperor but came to her, wanting to use her to expose the matter.

What Jing Lingyu did is unforgivable to Chen Country, but in the Emperor’s heart, after all, he is his blood. Upon knowing the truth, even if the Emperor hates it, he would have a lesser view towards the informant, even if they were right.

So Jing Yunzhou didn’t want to be the villain, if she exposes the matter, Jing Yunzhou can become a guide, with the initiative not being his to uncover the matter, wanting to completely remove himself.

What a calculation!

If he himself exposed it to the Emperor, after dealing with Jing Lingyu, Jing Yunzhou would be overly prominent, not only receiving dodgy looks from the Emperor but also attracting countless spies from Chen Country targeting him.

”Yanyan, this is no longer about personal feelings but rather about matters of the world.”

”As the ancient saying goes, ’The rise and fall of the nation concerns everyone.’ If we don’t do this, and it’s true, Great Zhou will be in peril.”
