Hearing the sound, Ye Qingcheng quickly turned around and looked over, her heart...
Then he picked up the stick he hadn't thrown away yet, ran over, and muttered something under his breath.
"The ghost is coming! The ghost is coming! Let's fight the ghost! Let's fight the ghost!"
The three stewards, Wang and his companion, had just stepped into the courtyard when they saw Ye Qingcheng rushing towards them with a stick in her hand.
"Ah...ah..."
The two maids following behind Steward Wang screamed in fright at Ye Qingcheng.
They quickly left the courtyard.
"king…"
Butler Wang had initially mustered his courage to call out "Princess," but then he saw Ye Qingcheng's stick already approaching.
He quickly retreated.
Seeing this, Ye Qingcheng did not chase after them, but instead closed the courtyard gate again.
Butler Wang and his two companions noticed that Ye Qingcheng did not chase after them.
All three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Steward Wang, is that really the Princess Consort?" a maid asked, letting out a long breath.
Butler Wang nodded: "That's right."
"This... Steward Wang, how are we supposed to serve the Princess Consort like this?"
Butler Wang did not reply, remaining silent for a moment.
We arrived at the courtyard gate.
"Your Highness, this old servant is Steward Wang. The Prince sent me with two servants to serve you and help you bathe and change."
We're not ghosts, can you let us in?
Ye Qingcheng, hiding behind the door, frowned slightly upon hearing Butler Wang's words.
What's wrong with this damned prince? Why did he suddenly send two maids to serve me again? What's he up to? Does he really suspect me?
This way.
After Butler Wang finished speaking, he waited for a while.
There was no response from Ye Qingcheng.
I thought about it.
He peered through the crack in the door, trying to hear if there was any movement inside the courtyard.
Thinking that if there was any commotion, Ye Qingcheng must have run far away.
But after listening for a while, there was no sound at all in the courtyard.
Butler Wang frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and spoke again: "Your Highness, can you hear what this old servant is saying? Can you understand it?"
After saying that.
Butler Wang waited a few more moments.
Ye Qingcheng still did not reply.
Hmm? Does this princess understand or not?
"Your Highness, if you don't reply, it means you understand what this old servant said. Then this old servant will go in, okay?"
After finishing his speech, Butler Wang cautiously and slowly pushed open the gate of the Cold Courtyard again.
After the gate is fully opened.
Butler Wang didn't go in; instead, he peeked out to see if Ye Qingcheng was by the door.
But he had only just poked his head into the courtyard.
ah…
Ye Qingcheng suddenly popped out from behind the door and shouted at him.
This action.
ah!
The butler was so startled that he screamed and quickly pulled his head back, taking several steps back.
He hadn't even gotten his footing yet.
Ye Qingcheng then closed the courtyard gate again.
Whoosh!
After regaining his footing, Butler Wang looked at the courtyard gate that had been closed again and gasped for breath.
"Butler Wang, Butler Wang, are you alright?"
Two maids came up from behind and asked with concern.
Butler Wang shook his head: "It's nothing."
call…
After saying that, he didn't forget to exhale a big breath.
At this moment, he was terrified by Ye Qingcheng's actions.
"Butler Wang, the princess looks terrifying."
"Yes, Steward Wang, could you please, please, beg the Prince not to send us to serve him?"
After hearing this, Butler Wang frowned slightly, did not reply, and thought for a moment.
"You wait here, I will go and report to the Prince."
"yes."
Then.
Steward Wang returned to the Prince's Mansion.
"Your Highness..."
"Well? Did you bring the princess?"
"Your Highness...this...this old servant, along with two maids, had just entered the Cold Courtyard when the Princess Consort kicked us out."
"Oh... how did she beat you all up?" Qin Mohan asked, a slight smile playing on his lips. His long, slender fingers tapped lightly on the table, his expression suggesting he had expected this, yet was asking on purpose.
Butler Wang ignored Qin Mohan's cunning expression and answered honestly, "The three of us had just entered when the Princess Consort brandished a stick and swung it at us. We quickly retreated."
"Oh...and then?"
"Then...then...the Princess closed the door. This old servant stood at the door and told her that you had asked me to bring people over to serve her, but she didn't seem to understand."
"that's all?"
Butler Wang nodded: "Yes."
"She didn't chase after us?"
"No."
"Did you manage to hit them?"
Butler Wang shook his head: "No."
"Hmm! Since there isn't one, then hurry up and go."
"This...is...this old servant will go again now."
Butler Wang said in a panic, and then retreated.
A moment later.
Then they arrived at the entrance of the Cold Courtyard.
Two maids went to greet Steward Wang when he returned.
"Steward Wang, has His Highness agreed?"
Steward Wang glared at the two maids: "If you don't serve the Princess well and bring her back to the manor today, you can expect the Prince to beat you to death when you get back!"
He should be beaten to death!
Upon hearing this, the two maids were terrified and immediately knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.
"Butler Wang, spare my life!"
"Hmph, whether you live or die depends on how well you serve the princess."
"This...but...but...the Princess..."
"What's wrong with her? Even if she's mentally impaired, she's still our master."
