Upon hearing the shouts, the eldest princess immediately got up, quickly left the house, and went to the courtyard to meet the Empress Dowager.
Ye Qingcheng arrived at the Empress Dowager's room and found the door wide open and no one inside. She then led Qinglian and Ningxin to the courtyard.
Everyone is in the courtyard right now.
Meanwhile, the young monks at Miaoyin Temple were extremely busy, carrying water one after another to the place where the fire was burning.
Ye Qingcheng arrived in front of the Empress Dowager and the Eldest Princess.
"Grandmother, Aunt, are you alright? What happened?"
The Empress Dowager shook her head.
The eldest princess then spoke up, saying, "We just arrived here ourselves."
Ye Qingcheng nodded after hearing this.
He then turned and looked in the direction of the fire.
But just then...

"Quickly, Qinglian, Ningxin, Qingluan, quickly protect the Empress Dowager and leave."
Seeing this, Ye Qingcheng loudly gave instructions to Qinglian and the others.

"Qing'er, you will leave with your mother."

After the princess lashed out with her whip, knocking away several arrows that were being fired, she saw that Ye Qingcheng was in a daze, so she moved to her side.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and follow your mother away."
Upon hearing this...
Ye Qingcheng realized what was happening.
"No need, Your Majesty. You and Grandmother are more important. You should leave first. I'll leave things here to you."
"Give it to you? I suspect this is all aimed at you again."
“My niece-in-law knows, that’s why she let you leave first.”
"No, since they're coming for you, how can I let you block their way?"
Hmph, it's been a long time since I've made a move.
Today, I will see just who these fools are, daring to lay a hand on my niece-in-law.
The eldest princess, while continuously wielding her long whip to deflect the incoming arrows, coldly snorted at Ye Qingcheng.
