For a while, everyone talked about the words that Emperor Hou Yi had left!
“What’s the matter? How are these words engraved on the jade platform?”
“Remember that time when Zhu Bajie offended Empress Chang Er. and Emperor Hou Yi trapped him in the formation?”
“Were Empress Chang Er and Zhu Bajie dating then? And His Majesty accidentally saw them, and that was why he died?”
The discussions were in a very soft tone, but Chang Er could hear them clearly!
Chang Er blushed, and her brain buzzed. She was distraught. ‘How could this happen? Zhu Bajie and I are innocent in this. Why did His Majesty engrave our names on the jade platform?’
For a time, the atmosphere in the room was extremely grave.
Darryl laughed in his heart.
‘Is that the clue?’
Darryl guessed that the Emperor must have fallen to his voice trick. He must have heard that Zhu Bajie and Chang Er were dating. Then, he engraved both of their names on the jade platform with his fingers.
When Emperor Hou Yi looked back and realized that Darryl had been the only person there, it was already too late.
“Yang Jian!”
Chang Er recovered her senses and looked at Yang Jian quietly. “What do you mean?”
“What do you mean?”
Yang Jian took a step forward; he was an awe-inspiring figure. “I don’t think I need to explain more about this. You should know better. Why did His Majesty engrave Zhu Bajie and your name on the jade platform?”
Yang Jian’s voice turned cold as he stared at Chang Er. He said, “Why don’t you tell us if His Majesty’s death is related to you? Also, is Zhu Bajie hidden in the palace?”
