Chapter 1066: Emperor Xia's Warning

Left Prime Minister continued: "Emperor Xia has already heard that you have a conflict with the Crown Prince; regarding this, Emperor Xia will personally educate the Crown Prince. Emperor Xia will not be biased, but he will not allow anyone to casually strike at a prince!"

Ye Liuyun immediately thought: "Is this to resolve the grudge between me and the Crown Prince, and also a threat to me? Can't kill the Crown Prince anymore?"

He instantly laughed and said: "There's no real conflict, just trivial matters; the Crown Prince wouldn't compare himself with me! I certainly wouldn't hold a grudge against the Crown Prince!"

Left Prime Minister immediately laughed: "Prince Ye, you are truly magnanimous!"

But he then asked another question: "Prince Ye, do you still remember the Second Prince?"

Ye Liuyun felt his heart thump.

"Wasn't the Second Prince killed by me? Could they have discovered it?"

Yet he asked calmly: "I seem to have heard that the Second Prince was killed on the assassination battlefield?"

"Hm." Left Prime Minister nodded, then asked: "I heard that when the Second Prince was killed, Prince Ye was also at the assassination battlefield?"

Ye Liuyun immediately retorted: "Left Prime Minister wouldn't suspect it's me, would you? At that time I was only at the Yin-Yang Realm, I didn't have that ability. I wouldn't have even encountered the Second Prince!"

He performed rather sincerely.

Left Prime Minister nodded: "What you say also makes sense!"

But whether Left Prime Minister believes it, or whether the Imperial Family has uncovered that he did it, Ye Liuyun doesn't know.

He can't read anything from Left Prime Minister's expression either.

He thought to himself: "Probably they haven't uncovered it, just suspecting! If they had uncovered it, they'd have acted against me long ago!"

"Alas!" Left Prime Minister sighed, speaking slowly: "Let's leave this matter as it is! The person is already dead; further investigation is meaningless."

Ye Liuyun also nodded, but didn't know what to say.

The clone was also consulting with Xia Tianqiong and Ling Shuang.

"Second brother, did you really finish him off?" Xia Tianqiong said with disbelief.

Ye Liuyun's clone nodded in acknowledgment: "But before that I didn't know he was a prince. After learning it, I had to kill him, otherwise he would have taken revenge on me!"

"No wonder Left Prime Minister said that. I'm sure they definitely figured out it was you!" Ling Shuang added.

"Indeed! What he said to you is a warning, telling you not to repeat it! The Second Prince has always been ignored, so perhaps the Emperor thinks his death is nothing. But for the other princes, you must not act against them!" Xia Tianqiong added.

The clone nodded: "You think I want to go after a prince? Every time it's them who try to kill me first!"

At this moment, Left Prime Minister suddenly asked: "Prince Ye, what is the purpose of your visit to the Imperial City this time?"

Ye Liuyun replied directly: "To find my parents!"

"Oh? Prince Ye's parents are on Zhongyang Dalu, I thought Prince Ye came from beyond the realm!" Left Prime Minister became curious.

Ye Liuyun clearly comes from beyond the realm; how could his parents be on Zhongyang Dalu?

"They were originally people of Zhongyang Dalu!" Ye Liuyun said without much explanation.

"Oh? Which family are they from? Maybe I can help?" Left Prime Minister pretended concern to gather information.

Ye Liuyun would never tell him. He probably thinks that if he tells him now, the Feng Clan will find out that night.

"What big family! If it's a big family, I wouldn't have to shoulder it alone!" Ye Liuyun casually shifted the topic, not wanting to continue the discussion.

"Alright then, Prince Ye's private matters, I won't pry further. But if Prince Ye needs me, just speak!"

Left Prime Minister indeed couldn't recall any force bearing the Ye surname, so lost interest, but still spoke sharply.

"Then thank you first, Left Prime Minister! I wonder if you have any other matters…"

Ye Liuyun felt that talking with him was like undergoing torture, unbearably hard, wanting to leave early.

"One more thing!"

But Left Prime Minister called him back.

"Left Prime Minister, please speak!" Ye Liuyun said helplessly, having to continue enduring.

"Actually it's not a big matter! It's just that Emperor Xia misses the two princesses very much, and asks that after Prince Ye arrives at the Imperial City, let the two princesses go see Emperor Xia."

Left Prime Minister also knew Ye Liuyun wanted to leave, so he said it directly.

"I'll definitely convey that!" Ye Liuyun replied.

"Then thank you, Prince Ye!" Left Prime Minister bowed and bid farewell to Ye Liuyun.

After parting, Ye Liuyun immediately returned to the Flying Boat.

"I'm exhausted! Talking with that old guy is just torture!" After returning, Ye Liuyun let Kuailei continue piloting the Flying Boat, and he went back into the Space World to rest a while.

"Now you know! In the Imperial Palace, this is how we are every day!" Ling Shuang said with a laugh.

"Indeed! Everyone envies the princes and princesses, but outsiders have no idea of our suffering!" Xia Tianqiong added.

"After you return to the Imperial City, do you plan to go back to the Imperial Palace?" Ye Liuyun asked immediately.

"Of course we must go back! Do you think it's really just to have you deliver a message? If we don't return, the Emperor would send people to fetch us! Then we'd be scolded, so it's better to go back voluntarily." Ling Shuang explained.

Ye Liuyun shook his head helplessly.

"People of the Imperial Family speak so convolutedly, it's exhausting!"

Suddenly he asked: "Emperor Xia wouldn't recall you and then detain you, would he?"

Xia Tianqiong and Ling Shuang both showed worried expressions upon hearing that.

"That is also possible!"

"Then what should I do? Storm the Imperial Palace to rescue you?" Ye Liuyun retorted.

"Then don't even think about it! The Imperial Family doesn't lack Tianzun Realm strongmen!" Ling Shuang countered.

After thinking, Xia Tianqiong solemnly told Ye Liuyun: "If we truly get detained, you don't need to do anything, just wait!"

She then added: "If people are detained, they'd probably detain me as well. Ling Shuang won't be detained! He is your and the Demon Race Holy Son's wager, legitimate and proper; the dynasty won't break your betting agreement."

Upon hearing that, Ye Liuyun immediately checked their Transmission Talismans again, so that if anything happens, they can contact each other easily.

"Useless, if the Emperor doesn't want us to communicate, he'll take away the Transmission Talismans!" Xia Tianqiong said helplessly.

"Then you should bring several backups, hide them in various places when you return, so they won't be discovered?" Ye Liuyun suggested.

"It can only be like this!" Xia Tianqiong's mood was very low.

"Why not... you two share a room today?" Ling Shuang whispered a suggestion from the side: "That way, once the rice is cooked, even Father Emperor won't be able to do anything..."

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Xia Tianqiong blushed scarlet, blaming Ling Shuang.

"I also think there will always be a solution; we don't need to use such extreme measures. If Emperor Xia finds out, it would be worse." Ye Liuyun also chimed in.
