Cheng Ying was not put in jail, but was left in the palace to be questioned by Xiao Hanjin himself.
As he said, about the Extinction Palace, he grasped a lot of inside information that outsiders didn’t know, and all of it was told truthfully.
Before leaving, Xiao Hanjin asked him, “Your Palace Master, what does he look like?”
“Never seen.”Cheng Ying faintly said, “Every time we meet, he wears a mask.”
“Why did you join the Extinction Palace?”
“………”
He was silent for a moment, Xiao Hanjin could see his hesitation and added faintly, “Empress Xianfei is on the opposite side of the Emperor in order to protect you. So you’d better be able to convince the Emperor that you’re innocent, otherwise Lady Xianfei won’t be able to get away with it.”
Seung Yeong lowered his eyes, a faint shadow cast at his eye sockets, “I’m looking for someone.”
“Who is it?”
“This is my personal matter.”

When Su Miao arrived at the imperial study, Di Bei Yu was not sure what he was reading. When he heard footsteps, he immediately closed the thing and threw it aside.
When he raised his eyes, the man’s face still had some sort of unfathomable coldness on it.
It wasn’t until he saw that the visitor was her that the frost under his eyes melted for a few minutes, only his handsome face remained taut, and after sweeping her with an expressionless face, he lowered his eyes to look at something else again and said in an unsavoury manner, “Why are you here?”
“Where is Cheng Ying?”
However, these three words easily made the frost that had easily melted at the bottom of his eyes condense again.
Di Bei Yu’s movements lurched as he slowly raised his eyes to look at her again. This time, it was no longer a casual glance, his deep dark eyes seemed to be frozen on her face, “You came here just to ask this?”
“What was the result of the interrogation?”She frowned.
“I am asking you ……,” the man aggravated his voice, “came here just for this?”
Su Miao frowned tighter, “Or else?”
Otherwise?
Di Bei Yu stared at her for a long time and suddenly hooked his lips.
Yes, she comes every time because of various reasons but whenever she takes the initiative to look for him, there is always a reason.
And no matter what those reasons were, there was no him in it.
His thin lips pursed heavily and he said expressionlessly, “I have locked him up.”
She froze, “Why?”As if she suddenly understood, her tightly frowning brows did not loosen, “Which sentence he said made you think that he had something to do with the assassin, or is there any evidence that makes you suspicious of him, or ……”
“Su Miao!”
The man snapped, his gaze steeply becoming cold and piercing.
Su Miao’s eyelashes trembled at his yelling, especially when she met his cold gaze, as if she had been stabbed, her brows furrowed even tighter.
With this look, she rather looked like she was impatient to the extreme.
Even though Di Bei Yu knew that she had been frowning since a while ago, at this moment, the agitation and anger in his heart was stirred up without limit, as if she was so annoyed and impatient just because she saw him.
He suddenly stood up from the dragon chair, his slender figure steeply falling in front of her, “Did you do it on purpose?”
Su Miao subconsciously took a step back, “Deliberately what?”
“From just now it has been Cheng Ying Cheng Ying ……” He suddenly sneered, his handsome face shrouded in thick danger, “You know that I don’t like him, you have to mention it again and again in front of me, do you think that I will be thereforeshow mercy, or are you afraid that he won’t die fast enough?”
