The emperor was attempted assassination, all ministers were silent initially. When they heard that the assassin was an imperial guard, then discussions were made.
Now a days, many people has remained distances with Ye Xiu Ming without any traces, because they don’t know how the emperor will treat him later on.
Ye Xiu Ming and Lu Li is not involved directly, so he did not hide themselves from people, and did what he was supposed to do. Although on his face he did not show any anything, but inside he is calculating what to do.
To be honest, Ye Xiu Ming actually suspect on whether or not Ji Wu Jiu arranged for this act himself. Now the assassin is being locked up in jail, and no one can enter without imperial edict; Lu Li was also grounded at home and watched by a few guards.
Also due to reasons, the women of the Ye Family are not allowed to enter the palace, and so they cannot get news from Ye Zhen Zhen.
Therefore the Ye Xiu Ming now is a bit thrown of balance.
Actually inside the palace, Ye Zhen Zhen is also equally thrown of balance. Although she is rather confident with her guess, but…. There is no evidence. Now cousin brother is being grounded, if the crime is made true… she really can’t think of what would happen.
