Chapter 288 Being watched by others



The house was surrounded by secret guards, and grunting sounds could be heard from inside.

Ye Sheng was extremely worried and immediately stepped forward to ask.

When he learned that the two had returned to the palace safely, he finally felt relieved.

Seeing that nothing happened, Ye Sheng and others simply waited outside and became the first group of people to watch the fun.

The battle in the room was very intense, and the incense burning lasted for four or five hours.

Ye Sheng and the others were getting bored waiting, so they simply walked away and found a place to sit down.

"Fourth Young Master, isn't this matter a little unusual?"

"Yes, many of the soldiers guarding the city gate are ours."

"But, it's been so long since the incident happened, why hasn't anyone come forward to report it?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Sheng frowned deeply.

"The number one farm in the world is the property of the Empress. This has become a recognized fact."

"Since they intend to plot against the Empress and His Majesty, we will naturally investigate carefully."

"And there was no news about this before. They must have done it suddenly."

"However, the news of His Majesty's return to the palace was not told to anyone, so how did they know?"

Ye Sheng was puzzled, so he immediately sent someone to investigate.

So, while everyone was waiting for the incense to burn out, Tianxia Diyi Zhuang and Wang Xiao both took action.

In fact, the matter is very easy to investigate, as there are only a few people following Shangguan Lingyun.

All of them are Shangguan Lingyun's personal secret guards, and they are absolutely trustworthy.

But Wang Xiao still checked them one by one.

It turns out that it wasn't them.

Wang Xiao looked at the pedestrians again. They were on their way back to Beijing and hardly met any fellow travelers on the road.

Only when I arrived in the suburbs of Beijing did I meet a few scattered people.

However, it only took a short while to get from the outskirts of Beijing to the city gate, so it was naturally too late to notify them.

After thinking about it, Wang Xiao felt that the Liu family and the Wang family might have been waiting at the city gate.

After a brief recollection, they realized that the soldiers guarding the city did change shifts while they were queuing.

After figuring out these things, Wang Xiao sent people to investigate the Wang and Liu families.

At the same time, Ye Sheng also received the news found out by his men, and then had someone send it to the palace.

Shangguan Lingyun looked at the intelligence sent by the No. 1 Manor in the World and the evidence found by Wang Xiao.

"The Liu family is becoming more and more daring."

After Shangguan Lingyun finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the empress dowager's bedroom.

When Shangguan Lingyun arrived, Ye Xiaoxiao was teasing two children in the Queen Mother's bedroom.

The Queen Mother had already heard what Ye Xiaoxiao had said about her return. Seeing that Shangguan Lingyun looked unhappy, the Queen Mother spoke directly.

"Your Majesty, what did you find out?"

Shangguan Lingyun briefly told the two of them the result.

The Queen Mother sighed, "Your grandfather is old, and your uncle is not a man of great ability."

"The Liu family has come this far, and it's already a great honor for the family. That's enough."

Ye Xiaoxiao winked at Shangguan Lingyun, and Shangguan Lingyun then spoke slowly.

"Mother, I have already given them a chance, but they did not cherish it."

"If it weren't for the fact that my son and I are immune to all poisons, I'm afraid the outcome today wouldn't be like this."

The Queen Mother nodded, "I know, you can deal with it as you please. I won't blame you."

"These past few days, everyone has disappeared, saying that the Queen Mother has a cold."

Shangguan Lingyun was worried that the Liu family would ask the Queen Mother for help, which would put her in an awkward position. The Queen Mother knew this very well.

Shangguan Lingyun saw that the Queen Mother did not react much and knew that she had already expected this.

"Since your mother is unwell, I will take my leave now."

Ye Xiaoxiao also stood up. After the two of them bowed to the Queen Mother, they left.

The two of them walked and talked, and Shangguan Lingyun spoke lightly.

"Originally, I planned to send Liu Yiyi to marry a foreign prince, which would end her wish and save the Liu family at the same time."

"However, the Liu family is ambitious and clearly will not give up."

"In that case, if I continue to be soft-hearted and considerate, I'm afraid I'll be retaliated against."

Ye Xiaoxiao nodded, "It's almost time for things to start happening outside. Let's go and see what's going on."

Shangguan Lingyun knew that Ye Xiaoxiao liked to be in a lively atmosphere, so he took her with him.

When they arrived, the commotion had already broken out.

Ye Sheng was standing aside with a huge bow on his head, and Princess Xinya was beside him.

At this moment, Princess Xinya was talking to Ye Sheng, and Ye Sheng's face did not look very good.

Ye Xiaoxiao didn't bother to see what was happening in the room, and her eyes were fixed on Ye Sheng's face.

[Why is she here? Is this the kind of place where a girl like her can watch the fun?]

How should I explain this to her and ask her to leave?

There are so many people here. If someone bumps into her, she'll probably start a fight with everyone.

[Don't let the excitement inside get you in vain and you end up becoming the cause of the excitement for others.]

Princess Xinya didn't know what Ye Sheng was thinking. Seeing Ye Sheng staring at her without saying anything, she suddenly felt a little annoyed.

"Mr. Ye, this princess is talking to you, can you hear me?"

"You're still injured. Why don't you stay in the restaurant to recuperate and come here to join in the fun?"

"There are so many people here, what if they touch your wound?"

"This princess doesn't want to always take care of your injuries like this."

Ye Sheng felt helpless and pulled Princess Xinya aside.

"Princess, please keep your voice down. Don't you see there are so many people here?"
