After looking at it for a while, Ye Qingcheng thought for a moment and then pulled the hairpin off her head.
She messed up her beautiful hair, then quickly ran to the vegetable garden and smeared dirt on her body and face.
At this moment, Ye Qingcheng looked filthy, her hair disheveled, like a madwoman.
Then Ye Qingcheng picked up a wooden stick from the ground and went to the door.
Outside the courtyard gate.
At this moment, Qin Mohan, Qinglong, and Thirteen stood aside, watching Butler Wang try to unlock the door one lock at a time with a key.
There were dozens of those keys, by sight.
"Your Highness, this princess has been in the Cold Courtyard for six years, with no one to take care of her and no food. Could she have already..." Qinglong said with a worried expression.
Upon hearing this, Qin Mohan frowned slightly, then turned around and drew the longsword from Qinglong's hand.
"Get out of the way."
Qin Mohan shouted.
Butler Wang turned to look at Qin Mohan, and seeing Qin Mohan slashing down with his sword, he was so frightened that he instinctively dodged to the side.
As Butler Wang turned to the side.
clang.
A crisp sound.
The rusty, reddish-black lock on the courtyard gate was also chopped off by Qin Mohan with a single sword stroke.
Immediately afterwards.
Qin Mohan kicked open the courtyard gate and stepped into the yard.
However, just as he stepped into the courtyard, before he could even get a clear look at the situation inside,
"Ah...ah...you lecherous thief, I'll beat you to death..."
A frantic, piercing scream reached his ears.
Then, before they could figure out what was going on...
A thick stick swung down toward his head.
"Your Highness, be careful."
Upon seeing this, Qinglong shouted.
However, Qin Mohan didn't need his reminder; just as the stick was about to touch his forehead, he dodged to the side.
Then he looked at Ye Qingcheng, who was pretending to be crazy.
But before he could even get a clear look at Ye Qingcheng...
Ye Qingcheng swung her stick again and struck him.
"I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death."
At this moment, Ye Qingcheng acted like a madwoman, swinging her stick at Qin Mohan.
Qin Mohan was unsure whether he was afraid of hurting Ye Qingcheng or felt guilty for neglecting her for the past six years.
Instead of fighting back, he kept dodging until he was outside the door.
However, in order to feign madness, Ye Qingcheng still grabbed a stick and chased after them.
Qinglong, Thirteen, and Butler Wang were stunned into silence by the sudden turn of events.
Wait a moment.
Thirteen then spoke: "Azure Dragon, is that...that person the Princess Consort?"
Qinglong shook his head, his brows furrowing slightly: "I don't know either!"
After answering, she looked at the butler and asked, "Is the butler the princess?"
Steward Wang shook his head: "This old servant doesn't know either! When the princess married into the manor, she wasn't even lifted from her veil before being thrown into this cold courtyard, so..."
"What do we do now? Judging from how Master keeps dodging, it seems he doesn't want to hurt the Princess. What should we do? Should we go and help?" Thirteen asked, looking at the scene before him with great difficulty.
Qinglong glanced at Thirteen: "If you need help, you go. I wouldn't dare."
Thirteen didn't dare to go up after hearing this, but he did glance at Steward Wang.
“Butler Wang, you’ve watched the master grow up since he was a child, why don’t you go and help him?”
"I…"
After hearing this, Steward Wang looked at Qin Mohan, then at the crazed Ye Qingcheng, and shook his head: "You two have been following the Prince since you were little. If you don't dare, how could this old servant dare? Do you think this old servant is about to die?"
Upon hearing this, Qinglong and Shisan both pursed their lips and said nothing more.
But just then...
Qin Mohan made his move, grabbing the stick Ye Qingcheng was swinging down and shouting.
"Ye Qingcheng".
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng also stopped.
Seeing this, Qin Mohan breathed a sigh of relief, then slowly reached out to brush aside Ye Qingcheng's loose hair to see her face.
But just as his hand was about to touch Ye Qingcheng's hair.
Ye Qingcheng moved again, opening her mouth and biting Qin Mohan's arm.
hiss!
Qin Mohan gasped in pain, wincing and instinctively pushing Ye Qingcheng away.
"Awooo... I'll bite you to death... I'll bite you to death... I'll bite you to death."
Ye Qingcheng was pushed to her mouth, and she muttered incoherently, pretending to be crazy.
Qin Mohan frowned slightly as he looked at Ye Qingcheng.
"Steward Wang, take the princess back to the manor."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After answering, Butler Wang went upstairs.
Ye Qingcheng saw this.
He started shouting.
"Ah...murder...a monster..."
As he shouted, he ran around the gate once, then when he reached the courtyard gate, he flashed into the cold courtyard and quickly closed the gate.
this…
Butler Wang had originally been following Ye Qingcheng around, but he was stunned when Ye Qingcheng went straight into the Cold Courtyard.
"Your Highness, what do you think of the Princess Consort...?"
Qin Mohan frowned and sighed, "Never mind, let's go back first!"
"Yes, Your Highness."
The group then turned around and returned to the Prince's residence.
This way.
Ye Qingcheng breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Qin Mohan and the others leave.
Xiao Tao came out.
"Miss, what happened just now?"
"If I, your young lady, don't pretend to be crazy, how can I deal with that scoundrel of a prince?"
"Miss, what if the Prince finds out you're faking it?"
"So what if he knows! Anyway, I won't be able to hold my breath if I don't teach him a lesson."
