Please read the following chapter at your own risk, will contain angst and some adult scenes.

Ji Jungkook regretted saying those words towards Ye Lisa. She has already suspected him from the start, and for him to purposely say those words, he is afraid that she will only suspect him more.

All in all, it was becasuse she has never believed him in the first place. Most probably ever since she entered the palace, she has always been wary of him, afraid that he will harm her, or harm her maternal family. This time, he was only afraid that she will think too much.

Ji Jungkook was getting reckless. It was not that he has never thought of bringing Ye Family down, even he wants to, it will never be using this type of method. No matter what, Ye Xiu Ming was once his teacher, he would not be such so cold hearted to give the name of treason towards Ye Xiu Ming.

That is why, it will be best if he were to discuss it properly with her.

With this intention in mind, Ji Jungkook reached Kun Ning Palace.

Facing a candle light, Ye Lisa was sitting while holding her chin with her hands in a daze, her eyes were rather bright, but her face was full of worries.

Ji Jungkook did not allow anyone to announce his arrival. Upon seeing Ye Lisa looking like that, his heart softened, walking towards her he held her shoulders down, and said "Lisa, we should stop fighting"

Ye Lisa raised her eyes, and coldly looked at him "Your majesty, you are very cunning"

Not understanding why, he sat opposite her and asked "Empress, kindly explain?"

"Su Jie Yu was awarded death by you right?"

"She decided herself, both you and me understood this point well. If she does not commit suicide, the entire Su Family would definitely be implicated"

"So, it meant that she killed herself due to the crime? That means this case should come to an end soon, when will you sentence Kang Cheng Lu?" Ye Lisa asked eagerly.

JI Jungkook looked down for a while and answered "The truth cannot be exposed now, and Kang Cheng Lu also won't die yet"

"That is right, the time to use him has not arrived" Ye Lisa sarcastically said.

Taking a deep breath Ji Jungkook, while telling himself that he must remain calm, he said "you think too much, I do not plan to use Kang Cheng Lu for anything, it is just that this is a very complicated plan, Su Jie Yu was also used by others. That assassin's sword has poison, very deadly. He really wanted to kill me" He stopped at this point and took a look at Ye Lisa, and saw that her face was full of disbelief. Not sure why but in his heart the fire in heart can no longer be suppressed and was leaking out.

Ye Lisa scoffed "Then, someone taking an edict to enter the jail, and tried to lure Kang Cheng Lu by promising to protect his life, and in exchange to make him say that the mastermind is Lu and Ye family, what do you think of this matter then, your majesty?"

Ji Jungkook felt that he was really going to erupt soon, his hands were curled into a tight fist, and because he was using a lot of strength, his fists are starting to shiver, he gritted his teeth and said "I will only ask you one thing. I was nearly killed by an assassin, did you even feel a tiny bit of worry over me?"

"I will also only ask you this, this time what would it take for you to not harm Lu and Ye Family?"

Ji Jungkook suddenly laughed. His laughter was quiet, and his face was cold and bitter, with a hint of mockery. He stood up and slowly walked up to Ye Lisa, looked down and smiled towards her, but in his eyes there was no hint of smile at all, only eyes that were filled anger and ruthlessness.
