"Of course not, it's just that I don't believe these things. There is no need for you to use your own life span as a guarantee." Xiao Qingyun replied.
"I am not afraid of dying, I just hope that Your Highness can be safe and sound."
Xia Qinghe looked up at Xiao Qingyun, then quickly lowered her head, revealing her slender white neck with a hint of shy pink.
She had practiced in front of the mirror many times, and this angle made her look the most beautiful and pitiful.
"Last time... I was confused and lost my mind, but it was also my true love for you. I hope Your Highness will not blame me."
Xiao Qingyun hummed, and raised his foot to walk around her and leave.
Xia Qinghe knelt down at his feet again: "Your Majesty, I have a favor to ask."
Xiao Qingyun glanced at her: "What's the matter?"
Xia Qinghe told Xiao Qingyun the truth about Zi Yi's situation.
After that, she wept and pleaded, "Zi Yi and I are master and servant after all. I cannot stand by and watch her die. I beg the prince to agree to let Zi Yi stay in the palace, even if it means being a servant."
Xiao Qingyun pondered for a moment and replied, "Since you care about our old friendship, it shows that you are also a man who values friendship and loyalty. How about this, since you don't have two servants in your courtyard, let her work in your room."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xia Qinghe was overjoyed.
Xiao Qingyun nodded and left.
After watching his back disappear, Xia Qinghe hurriedly stood up and went to Butler Zhou.
After taking Zi Yi out from Butler Zhou, Xia Qinghe begged Butler Zhou to send someone to deliver a message to the Xia Mansion.
Just say that the Regent has agreed to let Ziyi stay in the palace to serve Xia Qinghe, and she will not return to the Xia Palace unless necessary.
The next day after Butler Zhou delivered the letter, the Xia family sent someone to deliver Zi Yi's indenture.
Xia Qinghe accepted Zi Yi's indenture and couldn't help but sigh that her father, Xia Hongsheng, was a sensible person.
…
…
Half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and Ye Wanning was released from house arrest.
Everyone originally thought that she would be quiet for a few days, but she took advantage of Xiao Qingyun's absence and led her men to attack Lingzhi's yard.
Lingzhi was fiddling with a pile of bottles and jars on the table in the room when someone opened the door and carried her out.
Ye Wanning stood in front of her with an arrogant look on her face: "Remember your identity. If you don't obey my orders, you will die without a burial place!"
Lingzhi squinted at her and asked, "I wonder what plans Concubine Ye has for me?"
Ye Wanning sneered, her nails stained red looking even more charming in the sunlight: "Of course, I will send you to a nunnery to become a nun, and put an end to your improper thoughts, Your Highness."
Damn, she is a Taoist disciple, how can she enter Buddhism?
Lingzhi said: "I'm sorry, I can't obey your order!"
You can't do anything that would betray your master!
"This is outrageous! A maid is so arrogant! Capture her!"
Ye Wanning was well prepared and immediately called over several strong guards to suppress the Ganoderma lucidum.
Seeing them approaching step by step, Lingzhi had no intention of retreating. She just raised her head and looked down at the group of people.
"I wonder who dares to touch me!"
Perhaps intimidated by her aura, these people did not move forward.
"What are you standing there for? Tie up this maid! Anyone who doesn't obey will get out of the palace!"
At this time, Xia Qinghe, who was hiding in the dark and watching all this, curled up the corners of her mouth and smiled sarcastically.
If it weren't for her instigation, Ye Wanning would not have lost her mind.
She had wanted to do something about Lingzhi for a long time.
The people in the yard now were all brought here by Ye Wanning, so Lingzhi couldn't escape.
When Xiao Qingyun asks about it, it has nothing to do with her anyway.
Xia Qinghe looked very proud.
"Girl, you are so awesome!" The man in purple standing next to Xia Qinghe flattered her.
Xia Qinghe glanced at her and said, "Now that we're in the palace, don't call me Miss. Just call me Auntie."
"Yes, aunt." Zi Yi lowered her eyes and responded.
Xia Qinghe glanced at her, then looked back at the chaotic scene.
With Ye Wanning's roar, the guards no longer hesitated and rushed towards Lingzhi.
Facing several guards rushing towards him, Lingzhi sneered without any fear.
Lianyue had already gone to call Housekeeper Zhou. Cuizhu anxiously stood in front of me and said, "Miss, go hide in your room first."
"That's not necessary."
Lingzhi said this and threw the small jar in his hand directly towards the guard who rushed over.
The powder in the jar spilled out.
The two men in front of him were covered in the powder and fell unconscious.
"Ahhh! Murder! This witch killed someone!"
The remaining guards fled in fear and did not dare to approach her.
"You...you actually know witchcraft?"
Ye Wanning couldn't believe it. How could this woman kill people without being seen? When did she acquire such a superb ability?
"Catch this witch for me! There's no need to send her to the nunnery. Kill her directly! Gouge out her eyes first, then chop off her hands and feet..."
"snort!"
Lingzhi sneered, raised his eyes and stared at Ye Wanning, and said word by word: "Stop playing the game for a moment. You are not qualified to kill me."
"You...you bitch!"
Ye Wanning was furious and kept urging the remaining hesitant guards.
"Kill her for me! I just don't believe that with so many people, they can still be afraid of her."
She must see this bitch kneeling down and begging for mercy today.
Seeing their companion fall to the ground, the other guards looked at each other and did not dare to step forward.
"What are you all standing there for? You idiots!"
Ye Wanning pushed the two people in front of her away, picked up a knife on the ground, and stabbed towards Lingzhi.
