Lin Xiuyan had already seen Ye Junfei walking over from behind the assassins.
He arrived silently, yet he took out several assassins without warning.
The sound of firecrackers still going off in the front courtyard of the Prince's Mansion completely drowned out the sound of him killing someone.
These sounds were originally released by Princess Pingnan so that her people could successfully kill everyone in the backyard of the palace.
Her attempt to conceal her true intentions was exploited to the fullest extent by Ye Junfei.
Ye Junfei looked over and asked, "Are you all alright?"
He saw the blood on Lin Xiuyan's face and immediately checked her wounds.
Lin Xiuyan smiled and said, "I'm fine, just some minor injuries."
Seeing that she was full of energy when she killed someone, Ye Junfei knew that her injuries should not be serious.
Now that they've reunited and she's safe and sound, he can finally relax.
He should have arrived much earlier, but he encountered many assassins on his way from the wedding hall, who prevented him from getting closer.
The Prince of Pingnan's residence is now in complete chaos.
The thought that she might die at the hands of the Princess of Pingnan filled him with anxiety.
Today's contest is not just a contest within the Prince's mansion, but a contest on a deeper level, which is why he didn't leave too many people in the mansion.
The guards he had on display were all under close watch by the Prince of Pingnan and the Princess of Pingnan, so they had no way to protect her.
Ye Junfei reached out and ruffled her hair, letting out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was strong enough; otherwise, today would have been extremely dangerous.
He looked around and saw that the yard and houses next door were full of corpses.
He took her hand and said, "From now on, I'll stay by your side."
Lin Xiuyan smiled and nodded in agreement, but Ye Qingwan asked, "Brother, what about me?"
Ye Junfei looked at her and said, "Go find Fan Xilou."
Ye Qingwan: "..."
She genuinely felt that her brother was not cute at all!
Lin Xiuyan smiled and said, "Let's go together."
Ye Qingwan liked to hear this: "My sister-in-law still loves me the most!"
After she finished speaking, she sighed and said, "It's good that I have a good sister-in-law. If my sister-in-law were as annoying as my brother, I would be so unlucky."
Ye Junfei let her add her own drama, ignoring it.
Wu Dao and Wu Ge had just escorted Ye Junfei out, as Ye Junfei was in a hurry to rescue Lin Xiuyan, and they covered his retreat.
At this moment, they also fought their way through to join them.
Ye Junfei said to them, "You must protect the Crown Princess well. No matter what happens, you must not leave her side."
The two quickly responded.
Today, Princess Pingnan went on a killing spree, murdering many young masters and ladies in the palace, as well as several favored wives.
At this time, the Pingnan Prince's Mansion was so devastating that describing it as a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood would not be an exaggeration at all.
Lin Xiuyan asked, "Where did that old hag and that witch go?"
Ye Junfei replied, "When I left the wedding hall just now, they were fighting. I don't know if they've finished yet."
"After learning that Princess Anle was a man, Ye Jingxian must have felt utterly desperate."
“Originally, Princess Anle was the help he wanted to find. Now that he no longer has that help, he should make up his mind.”
"Although he's a good-for-nothing, the old geezer is completely unprepared for him, so he'll likely gain a significant advantage this time."
Lin Xiuyan raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this.
She didn't believe that the Prince of Pingnan was completely unaware that he intended to kill the illegitimate sons and daughters of the Prince's household.
However, he had no intention of stopping the Princess Consort of Pingnan from doing this, and made no arrangements for her to kill.
Lin Xiuyan felt a chill run down her spine at the thought of this possibility. Her father, the Prince of Pingnan, was definitely not a qualified father.
If he didn't want illegitimate children, he could simply not take concubines and prevent them from being born.
A father who brings children into the world but then completely disregards them is truly heartbreaking.
Ye Qingwan said directly, "Ye Jingxian should cut that old bastard a few more times, let him feel the pain, and see what kind of son he raised."
In the Prince's mansion, the person she hated the most was not the Princess Consort of Pingnan, nor Ye Jingxian, but the Prince of Pingnan.
To put it bluntly, the current situation is entirely the fault of the Prince of Pingnan.
Princess Pingnan and Ye Jingxian were merely pawns.
Lin Xiuyan also hoped that the father and son would kill each other, and she felt the same deep hatred for them.
As they were talking, they saw Ren Zheng helping the Prince of Pingnan hurriedly walk towards the backyard.
They were at one end of the line, while the Prince of Pingnan was at the other.
The backyard wasn't big, and they saw each other at that moment.
Ye Junfei and Lin Xiuyan both saw the head stuck in the abdomen of the Prince of Pingnan, and his royal robes were stained red with blood.
Ye Qingwan: "Oh!"
Lin Xiuyan: "Oh ho."
The Prince of Pingnan had not expected to see them here, and his expression was somewhat complicated.
The two groups of people faced each other across a long, secluded passage in front of the courtyard, and the Prince of Pingnan saw the undisguised schadenfreude in their eyes.
The Prince of Pingnan looked rather grim; he didn't want them to see him in such a disheveled state.
These people, who were clearly his juniors and should have shown him respect, looked at him with absolutely no respect whatsoever.
When he saw Ye Junfei raise his large bow, nock an arrow, and aim at him, his expression turned even uglier.
He has always considered himself a successful father, and all his children, except for Ye Junfei, respect him greatly.
But after being stabbed in the back by Ye Jingxian today, he realized that he might have been wrong.
When he saw Ye Junfei, he felt that Ye Junfei had benefited the most from his current state, and that Ye Junfei should try to please him at this moment.
However, Ye Junfei made no attempt to conceal his disgust and murderous intent towards him.
When he saw the bow being drawn back to its fullest extent, he knew that Ye Junfei wasn't just trying to scare him, but really intended to kill him.
At that moment, he even understood what Ye Junfei hadn't said aloud:
You deserve it!
I can obtain the Prince of Pingnan's mansion through my own methods; I don't need your charity!
So you'd better die! If you die, I'll be the rightful Prince of Pingnan!
The Prince of Pingnan had already been stabbed by Ye Jingxian and the Princess of Pingnan, so when he saw this scene again, he was not as angry as before.
From the very first day Ye Junfei returned to the Pingnan Prince's residence, he made no attempt to hide his dislike for the Prince.
Perhaps because the Prince of Pingnan had no expectations of him, when Ye Junfei pointed the great bow at the Prince of Pingnan, he felt it was only natural.
Upon seeing this, Ren Zheng immediately grabbed the Prince of Pingnan and quickly hid behind the wall.
Ye Junfei put away his bow: "He was lucky he ran fast!"
Lin Xiuyan had seen Ye Junfei kill people with a bow before; if he wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't need to draw his bow for so long.
