Su Liyue followed Ye Cangming's gaze to look at the lock and wanted to explain, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't know how to explain.
Well... she didn't expect that she would be caught in the act.
"Where are you going?" Ye Cangming retracted his gaze and looked at Su Liyue. He clearly saw the guilt in Su Liyue's eyes, and a faint smile flashed across his eyes.
Su Liyue: "I want to go see the wife of Duke Chen."
She thought about it. Whether it was Master Huian or the old Duke's wife, they had one thing in common, that is, she had treated them before, and their identities and status were extremely important.
Therefore, she had reason to believe that the two men were targeting her.
After all, if anything happens to these two people, she will be in big trouble.
However, Ye Cangming appeared here at this time...
Su Liyue suddenly panicked when she thought of Ye Cangming. It was possible that Ye Cangming saw her coming out of the prison just now. Even if he didn't see her, it was difficult to explain the fact that the lock had not been touched.
Besides, Ye Cangming also knew that I could remove poison. Could it be that Ye Cangming also thought that I was a witch like those people?
"Yeah." Ye Cangming nodded.
Just when Su Liyue was lost in thoughts, panicked and embarrassed, Su Liyue suddenly spoke.
Su Liyue: “…”
Um?
What does "hmm" mean?
Before Su Liyue could react, she saw Ye Cangming turned around.
Su Liyue looked at Ye Cangming's back and felt more and more confused.
This - what exactly does he mean?
Just when Su Liyue was feeling confused, Ye Cangming suddenly turned around and cast a deep gaze on her. "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
"Ah—good—"
Su Liyue followed subconsciously.
Just as he walked out of the long corridor, he saw Ye Cangming stop.
This - isn't it going to kill people to silence them?
Su Liyue's first thought was all kinds of random thoughts. She paused slightly, but still moved closer to Ye Cangming.
After all, although Ye Cangming had wanted to kill him several times before, but later... In short, if Ye Cangming wanted to kill him, he would not need to take any detours. If he wanted to kill someone, he would have nowhere to hide.
Then, just as Su Liyue walked to Ye Cangming's side, Ye Cangming suddenly reached out to her.
Su Liyue only felt a tightening around her waist, and before she could react, her body flew into the air.
Then, Ye Cangming held her waist and led her out of the cell.
She even heard a jailer say, "What happened just now?"
Su Liyue: “…”
I have to say that Ye Cangming's lightness skills are quite fast.
So much so that when she was brought to the Duke's Mansion by Ye Cangming, she was still a little unable to react.
"Father, Mother was murdered by that evil woman Su Liyue. Why didn't you say a word in court? If you had spoken, the Emperor would have surely punished Su Liyue."
When this voice sounded, Su Liyue finally came back to her senses.
Looking around, Su Liyue realized that she had been brought to Duke Chen's Mansion by Ye Cangming, and was near Old Madam Chen's courtyard.
The person who spoke just now was one of the sons of Duke Chen.
The rest of the Chen family looked at Old Duke Chen with puzzled expressions. Obviously, they did not understand why Old Duke Chen did not ask for permission to deal with Su Liyue in the court.
The face of the old Duke Chen was hidden in the darkness, and Su Liyue couldn't see his expression clearly, but when she saw the performance of the Chen family, her heart sank.
"You all should leave. I want some quiet time." Old Duke Chen seemed not to want to say anything more and waved his hand.
"Father——" Several people wanted to say more.
"Step back." Duke Chen's voice became deeper.
In the end, all the younger generations of the Chen family retreated, but Old Duke Chen stood there for a long time without moving.
After a long time, he turned and walked into the house.
Su Liyue was silent for a long time, then suddenly looked at Ye Cangming.
To be honest, she really wanted to know what Ye Cangming thought about this matter.
However, Ye Cangming happened to look over at this time, and their eyes met.
At this moment, Ye Cangming's gaze was like the deep starry sky to Su Liyue, becoming more and more mysterious and elusive.
Just meeting that pair of eyes would make her shuttle between nervousness and excitement. She felt as if she had seen deep affection, as if she had been seen through, and as if it was unfathomable and she was just imagining it all.
Just, it's very strange.
In the end, Su Liyue looked away.
At this time, Duke Chen came out.
After Duke Chen left, Ye Cangming brought Su Liyue to the old lady's yard.
After the two entered the old Duke's wife's room, Su Liyue's heart sank as she looked at the old Duke's wife lying on the bed with a pale face.
Soon Su Liyue saw a poisonous insect playing tricks on the old Duke's wife's head.
Looking at other things, Su Liyue didn't see anything wrong with them.
Despite this, Su Liyue still walked to the bedside and pretended to take the old lady's pulse, but she had already started thinking about a way to remove the poison.
At this moment, the door was pushed open with a creaky sound.
Su Liyue's hand trembled slightly, and she looked back, only to see that Old Duke Chen had returned.
Su Liyue: “…” She calmly withdrew her hand, stood up and looked at the old Duke Chen.
Old Duke Chen glanced at Ye Cangming, then his gaze fell on Su Liyue.
Su Liyue saw that Duke Chen had a serious expression on his face, but his eyes were complicated when he looked at her.
Just when Su Liyue thought that Old Duke Chen was going to deal with her and scold her, Old Duke Chen did not play according to common sense.
With a "thump", Duke Chen fell to his knees.
