The two sat down nervously.
"Your Highness, please ask? This servant will answer to the best of my knowledge, without being evasive."
"Hmm! Alright, I'll ask you, why did that dog prince make you serve me?"
Dog...Dog Prince?
After hearing this, the two women exchanged a glance, finding it hard to believe that their princess dared to call the prince a dog. What if the prince found out…
Thinking about this...
The two dared not think any further.
Xiao Cui replied, "Yes, Your Highness, this servant doesn't actually know why His Highness suddenly sent us to serve you."
"Oh? He didn't say?"
Xiao Cui shook her head.
Upon seeing this, Ye Qingcheng frowned, feeling quite puzzled.
What on earth is Qin Mohan up to?
But then, as if she had thought of something, she turned to look at Xiao Xin.
"Your name is Xiaoxin, right?"
“Yes, Your Highness,” Xiao Xin replied.
“Go tell that dog of a prince that I insist on staying in the cold courtyard and will not go to his palace.”
"Your Highness, there's no need to tell the Prince. When he sent us here, he said that we should stay with you in the Cold Courtyard and serve you."
Moreover, if Leng Yuan needs anything, she can get it from the Prince's Mansion.
"Huh? He really said that?"
"Yes, Your Highness."
Ye Qingcheng was even more confused after hearing this.
Qin Mohan's actions at this moment puzzled her greatly.
At this moment.
"Miss."
Xiao Tao carried over the pastries she had made and called out to Ye Qingcheng.
Ye Qingcheng nodded: "Xiao Tao, from now on Xiao Cui and Xiao Xin will live in our Leng Courtyard. Afterwards, take them to the side room."
"Yes, Miss."
"Xiao Cui, Xiao Xin, here you all follow Xiao Tao's instructions, except for me."
"Yes, Your Highness."
"And from now on, you are not allowed to call me Princess."
"Ah? This... this servant dares not."
"What do you mean you wouldn't dare? You all should call me 'Miss' just like Xiao Tao."
"But…"
"There are no buts. Although I married that dog of a prince, he has ignored me for the past six years."
"From now on, I'm going to divorce him. If people hear you calling me 'Princess,' my reputation will be ruined."
"This...Your Highness...what did you just say? You want a divorce?"
"That's right."
"This, Your Highness, this is absolutely impossible! This prince is the seventh prince! If you divorce him, then..."
"Alright, look how anxious you are. We're not divorced yet. Remember to call her Miss."
“This…is…this servant obeys.”
"Hmm! Very good, alright, come and try some of the pastries from my Cold Courtyard."
"Yes, thank you for the reward, Your Highness."
"Still calling her Princess?"
"Miss..."
"kindness!"
Ye Qingcheng nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.
"Miss Wang, what kind of pastry is this? It's delicious!"
Xiao Cui picked up a piece of pastry, put it in her mouth, and felt it melt before she even bit into it. She was shocked and asked a question.
"Yes! Miss, your pastries are so delicious. I have never eaten anything so good before."
Xiao Xin, with her mouth full of pastries, praised him indistinctly.
Ye Qingcheng smiled and said, "Eat more if you like it. As long as you are loyal, you are my family in this cold courtyard."
"Yes... Thank you, Miss. I never thought I would have the honor of serving you."
"Yes! Miss, I swear I will always follow you and be with you."
"kindness!"
"By the way, Miss, were you doing that on purpose before?" Xiao Cui asked hesitantly.
Ye Qingcheng nodded: "Okay! Don't tell anyone."
"Yes, I understand," Xiao Cui nodded in response.
After talking for a while, the group of people...
Ye Qingcheng had Xiao Tao lead the two of them to a side room in the cold courtyard.
This way.
Qin Mohan sat in the study, holding a book in his right hand, while his slender fingers tapped lightly on the table with his left.
Thirteen stood to the side, looking at Qin Mohan with a slight frown, quite puzzled.
Strange? What's wrong with this master? He's been acting strange ever since he came back from the Wisteria Courtyard. That cold-faced prince, who never smiles, has even shown a smile from time to time.
"My lord... Your Highness..."
"Thirteen, from now on, if you have nothing to do, go and keep watch over the Cold Courtyard."
"Stay and guard?"
"That's right, remember to hide it well and don't let the princess find out."
"My lord, are you ordering me to spy on the Princess?"
"You'll know once you've been guarding it for a few days."
"Yes, Master."
After Thirteen finished speaking, he withdrew.
After watching Thirteen leave, Qin Mohan narrowed his deep eyes slightly and smiled.
"Your Highness, Physician Ye, let's see how long you can keep up this act."
At this moment, Qin Mohan seemed to be quite certain that Ye Qingcheng was faking her madness, and was also certain that Doctor Ye was Ye Qingcheng.
This way.
After Thirteen left.
Qinglong hurriedly returned.
"master."
Qin Mohan glanced at him.
"Is everything taken care of?"
"Everything is taken care of."
"Very good. After the morning court session tomorrow, it will be time for them to start accusing each other."
"Master, are you still going to pretend to be sick?"
"I will remain silent until the Crown Prince and the Third Prince have truly begun their battle."
Upon hearing this, Qinglong nodded.
