Chapter 637 Xuan Er Doesn’t Understand
Di Ran's deep gaze fell on Ming Xuan's face: "I have something to ask you."
Mingxuan was happy about the prince's arrival and had no idea of his real purpose for coming here.
"Your Highness, we can talk slowly. It's a rare opportunity for you to come here today. Xuan'er will cook a few delicious dishes for Your Highness to taste."
"No need."
Ever since he stepped into Zhaixing Tower, Di Ran had a cold face and was unwilling to even sit on a chair.
If it wasn't for Axie, she wouldn't even want to pass by the Zhaixing Tower.
"My lord..."
Mingxuan was stunned, looking at Di Ran's gloomy face, feeling a little uneasy.
"I heard that you went to the Ministry of Justice Prison last night?"
A cold voice sounded faintly.
Mingxuan's heart skipped a beat, and he denied it with gritted teeth: "I don't understand what the prince is saying."
"Xuan'er has been staying in the mansion obediently these days. Except for going to the palace to visit the Queen Mother, he has never left the mansion."
"Who told you this, Your Majesty? Don't believe other people's rumors. You are wrongly accusing Xuan'er."
Mingxuan sounded weak and frail, his words revealing the grievance of being misunderstood by his beloved.
Di Ran's face darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "I didn't know that the Queen Mother raised a good adopted son who is full of lies!"
Mingxuan was shocked, his face turned pale: "...Prince, I am not..."
"The housekeeper told the king that he saw you sneak out of the house last night."
Mingxuan's expression froze and his whole body stiffened.
"You think you did it without anyone noticing, but you don't know that there is nothing in the mansion that I don't know."
The aura of Di Ran became colder and colder, and his cold eyes stared at Mingxuan like a knife.
"Was Wang Jun's near miscarriage related to you?"
Mingxuan’s eyes widened and his face turned pale instantly, as if he had been wronged. Tears welled up in his eyes and his voice trembled and choked.
"Your Highness!" "Your Highness, you can't slander me out of thin air. Xuan'er has always respected Wang Jun as his own brother. Even if my brother hates Xuan'er, Xuan'er has never complained."
"The fact that Wang Jun almost had a miscarriage has nothing to do with Xuan'er. Your Majesty... Xuan'er knows that she is not popular and has never thought of competing with Wang Jun for favor. Your Majesty, you can't say that it was Xuan'er who harmed Wang Jun just because of some of Wang Jun's angry words. Xuan'er is innocent..."
"shut up!"
"Your Majesty is kindhearted by nature. He has never said anything bad about anyone since he returned to the palace. Don't try to sow discord in front of me."
Di Ran had a gloomy face and would not allow anyone to say anything bad about A Xie.
Mingxuan's face turned pale, a hint of jealousy and unwillingness flashed across his tearful eyes. He bit his lower lip tightly, his face full of stubbornness.
“…If Your Majesty insists that Xuan’er harmed the king, please produce evidence, otherwise Xuan’er will not accept it!”
Di Ran narrowed his eyes coldly. He didn't expect that this man could be so calm.
"You said you weren't the mastermind, so why did you go to see Bai Wushuang last night?"
"You have no relationship with Bai Wushuang, so how come he confessed his crime after you went to see him?"
When Mingxuan heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and his expression changed, as if he had suffered a great injustice. His eyes were filled with tears and he looked pitiful.
"Based on this, Your Majesty, do you think Xuan'er is the mastermind?"
"Your Highness, Xuan'er admitted that he went to the prison."
"But Xuan'er just wanted to help the prince. Xuan'er heard that Bai Liangshi was the murderer of the prince, and he was angry for a while, so he went to question him. Xuan'er was also kind-hearted and had no other intentions."
"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood Xuan'er..."
Di Ran sneered, not believing the other party's sweet words at all.
"Oh, why don't you go during the day but wait until night?"
Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, and said timidly, "This...Xuan'er was also worried about Wang Jun's matter. I couldn't sleep at night so I went out for a walk, and then I thought about the person who harmed Wang Jun, so I went to see him."
"Your Majesty, Xuan'er has no connection with that person, and has absolutely no intention of murdering you. Please believe Xuan'er..."
"Don't you know what kind of person Xuan'er is, Your Majesty?"
