Ye Qingwan gained Qu Shuangyue's approval, which boosted her confidence even more.
She continued loudly, "You old hag, your greatest hope in this life is Ye Jingxian."
“Before my brother came back, he did look like a human being.”
"But as soon as my brother came back, he was immediately compared to a worthless beast."
"He is not even one ten-millionth as good as my brother in terms of ability, appearance, or cunning."
"You and your son had such a great hand before, but you played it terribly in less than a year!"
"What does this prove? This proves that the son you painstakingly raised is a good-for-nothing!"
"So what if you schemed against my mother back then? Even though my mother is gone, my brother and I are still far superior to your children!"
"You've schemed your whole life, but you can't compare to my mother..."
She spoke more and more fluently, without using any vulgar words, yet every word she uttered was like a knife stabbing into the heart of the Princess of Pingnan.
Princess Pingnan heard Ye Qingwan's cursing from inside the room, and her face turned very ugly.
She had been planning for this day for a long time, hoping to kill Ye Junfei and the other two in one fell swoop.
However, these three were far more cunning than she had imagined, and none of the men she sent out returned alive.
She had received news beforehand that Ye Qingwan had left the palace with Ye Junfei.
Now that Ye Qingwan has come over and is scolding her, she feels suffocated.
However, she had been fighting with Ye Qingwan for many years and knew that Ye Qingwan was no pushover.
Ye Qingwan's presence here at this moment, and her daring to insult her like this, must mean she has something to do with it.
Princess Pingnan said in a deep voice, "Yan Nan, go outside and see what's going on?"
After scouting outside, Yan Nan quickly returned: "The one cursing with the princess is the lady of the Lin family."
"In addition, there were several servants from the Lin family with them."
Princess Pingnan sneered, "Did you bring a few people from the Lin residence just to disgust me?"
Yan Nan said softly, "I've heard that the lady of the Lin family is highly skilled in martial arts. With her around, the princess might feel more at ease."
Princess Pingnan initially thought that Ye Qingwan had found some powerful helper, but after learning that it was Qu Shuangyue, she felt somewhat disdainful.
She said coldly, "Take a few men and go out there, kill them!"
Yan Nan nodded. In their eyes, the Lin family was just an ordinary merchant family.
Even if the Lin family has a few highly skilled guards, their martial arts skills are absolutely no match for those of the masters in the Prince's mansion.
Although there aren't many guards protecting Princess Pingnan right now, there are still about a hundred of them, so there's no need to be afraid of them.
Most of the merchants are shallow and self-righteous. They think that just because the Prince's mansion is in chaos today, they dare to cause trouble here. They are simply courting death!
Yan Nan led his most elite guards out of the house, intending to kill Ye Qingwan and the others as quickly as possible.
After all, Ye Qingwan's cursing made Princess Pingnan feel annoyed, and such a person deserves to die!
They acted very directly, without saying a word, and slashed at Ye Qingwan with their knives.
Ye Qingwan could tell at a glance that those people were all well-known experts working for the Princess Consort of Pingnan.
She had suffered at the hands of these men before, and seeing them come out now made her feel uneasy.
She turned to Qu Shuangyue and said, "Mother, be careful!"
Qu Shuangyue said excitedly, "They've come at the perfect time! My hands have been itching for a fight!"
Ye Qingwan: "..."
At this point, she finally understood who Lin Xiuyan had learned to be both calm and excited when fighting.
The Lin family's long history of scholarship made Ye Qingwan feel both helpless and somewhat envious.
Before those experts could even reach Qu Shuangyue, several of them were shot dead.
Ye Qingwan: "..."
She knew these people's martial arts skills; ordinary crossbows couldn't hurt them at all.
With their skills, they could easily evade it.
However, when the guards from the Lin family shot at them, the location was extremely unusual, cutting off all their escape routes.
This method of killing actually coincides with the Five Elements Formation, which is quite ingenious.
For the first time, Ye Qingwan had a question in her mind: Was Lin Yunzhi really just an ordinary businessman?
Qu Shuangyue, however, was cursing, "Don't kill them all! Leave a few for me!"
Lin Yunzhi said from the side, "Don't rush, only a few will be able to break through. Yue'er, it's up to you!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than several skilled guards, though struck by multiple arrows, managed to avoid fatal blows and rushed toward Qu Shuangyue.
She immediately roused herself, picked up her broadsword, and with a whirlwind of red robes, killed all the guards who rushed towards her, though their killing power was no longer significant.
Ye Qingwan: "!!!!!!!"
She was only slightly stunned, and the Lin couple had killed all the fierce guards who had rushed over.
She tugged at Fan Xilou's sleeve and said, "Are all those people dead?"
Fan Xilou nodded, and Ye Qingwan's eyes widened as she asked, "How did they do that?"
Fan Xilou replied, "Uncle Lin is proficient in the Five Elements, Eight Trigrams, and formations, and Aunt Lin is highly skilled in martial arts."
He had been staying by Lin Yunzhi's side during this time, which deepened his understanding of Lin Yunzhi.
Lin Yunzhi appears gentle and harmless, but he is actually extremely meticulous, shrewd, and possesses first-rate skills in warding off evil and misfortune.
It was only at this moment that Fan Xilou understood the fundamental reason why the Lin family's business was so large and they could thrive even without the government as a backer:
The Lin family's backer is themselves; this couple are no ordinary people.
Ye Qingwan clicked her tongue twice, ran over and hugged Qu Shuangyue's arm, saying, "Mother, you're my mother now!"
Qu Shuangyue laughed and let her call out as much as she wanted, but never answered.
She said to Ye Qingwan, "After you've killed all these people, keep cursing and summon a few more. Then kill these bastards!"
Ye Qingwan immediately smiled and said, "Okay!"
She now understood their plans and tactics. She was no longer averse to swearing; in fact, she felt a secret excitement.
Yan Nan, who was standing guard nearby, looked rather grim upon seeing this scene. She hurriedly went inside to report the situation to Princess Pingnan.
Princess Pingnan was shocked: "They've all been killed?"
Yan Nan nodded, and Ye Qingwan's cursing voice came over again: "Old hag, are you trying to hide in your shell like a coward?"
"Didn't you want to kill me every day? I'm right here now, so come and kill me if you dare..."
What followed was a string of profanities she had just learned from Qu Shuangyue, coupled with fabricated facts, which made the Princess of Pingnan's face turn black.
She knew that if she didn't kill Ye Qingwan today, she wouldn't have any peace!
From now on, she will never be able to hold her head high in the Prince of Pingnan's mansion!
So she ordered Yan Nan to send another group of men to flank the Lin family from the side, intending to kill everyone in the Lin family!
