"I'll say, I'll say!" Yuan Hongfei hurriedly agreed without any guts.1
After asking him what had happened, Shen Nian used a special method to record all the information that he had just heard. Then, she brought Ye Kai and Yuan Hongfei with her as they went to the Imperial Palace.
It was the Yuan clan that had been recklessly sending people to assassinate Ye Kai, again and again. They had always been making things difficult for him, so there was no need to be merciful to them anymore!
Very quickly, they told Su Yan and Su Qian Feng what had happened. The two of them were also very shocked, and Su Qian Feng immediately ordered someone to call Yuan Bolin over.
Yuan Boyin hurried to the Imperial Palace and saw Su Qian Feng and the others.
At this moment, Su Qian Feng was sitting in his room with a serious expression on his face. Su Yan, Ye Kai, Shen Nian and the rest were standing on the side.
Other than them, Ye Kai had also sent a middle-aged man. However, this man's status in the Ye Family was not that prominent. He stood quietly behind Ye Kai, obviously showing that he was going to be decided by Ye Kai. He had only come to express the Ye Family's attitude on this matter.
Although the Ye Family's actions were unsatisfactory, they did not let Ye Kai down. No matter how excluded they were from the family, in front of outsiders, they were still as solid as a board.
In front of them stood Yuan Hongfei. He was standing there with a worried look on his face and was cowering in fear.
Upon seeing Yuan Bolin, Yuan Hongfei's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, but was immediately replaced by sadness.
Yuan Bolin cast a sidelong glance at Ye Kai. He knew that he had failed to assassinate Ye Kai. He forced himself to remain calm as he lowered his head and bowed, "May I know for what reason your majesty has invited Old Chen Chen here?"
Prime Minister Yuan, three days ago, I asked Ye Kai to fight against the two young geniuses of Cang Lang Country on behalf of my Windy Nation. However, just after the feast ended that night, Ye Kai was assassinated by Wu Jue.
Su Qingfeng stared intently at the side of his wrinkled face. His eyes were as sharp as knives, as if he could cut through his disguise and see his true thoughts.
Yuan Boyin tried his best to pretend that he was calm as he looked Su Qian Feng in the eye. He said indifferently, "Reporting to Your Majesty, this old man does not know!"
"Does the Prime Minister really not know?"
Su Qingfeng asked again. His eyes narrowed tightly and his expression darkened.
"I dare not lie to you!" Yuan Boli had a serious look on his face and refused to admit it even if he was beaten to death.
Assassinating the guests invited by the royal family wasn't an obvious act of opposing them. If they were to admit to it, they would inevitably face the wrath of the royal family.
The reason why the Su Clan was firmly seated on the throne of the Su Clan was naturally because of him. Although the Yuan Clan and the Ye Clan were called the three great clans, Yuan Bolin knew clearly that they could not compare to the Su Clan.
The Yuan Family could not bear the wrath of the Royal Family, let alone the Ye Family.
Shen Nian sneered, her purple eyes glimmering, "Prime Minister Yuan is a man of noble character and integrity. Naturally, we won't doubt your words. Now, why don't we listen to your grandson!"
He turned to look at Yuan Hongfei with a cold smile.
Yuan Hongfei, who was standing at the side, couldn't help but shudder. He looked at Shen Nian and then looked at Yuan Bolin. His eyes flickered and he was hesitating whether he should speak the truth or not.
Yuan Hongfei believed that Yuan Bolin should be able to protect him. However, he really didn't want to bear the pain of that purple flame burning his soul!
He lowered his head, his trembling lips moving as he struggled internally.
