Just as Su Xuerou was wondering if there was some misunderstanding, the guard replied, "The person we arrested is you."
"How dare a perfectly normal woman use evil magic!"
Su Xuerou's pupils constricted sharply upon hearing this. Evil magic?
How could these guards know that she was using black energy? What went wrong?
Su Xuerou tried to call out to the black mist, but there was no response.
As for Brother Mu Bai, does he know whether he will step in to rescue him if he knows he is imprisoned?
Just as Su Xuerou was puzzled by this, she saw a figure coming from there.
"You're Su Xuerou?" The man narrowed his eyes, his gaze scrutinizing Su Xuerou.
Su Xuerou felt uncomfortable being stared at and looked at the other person warily.
"Who are you, and how do you know my name?"
"How dare you not bow before the Grand Preceptor!"
The guards were immediately displeased by Su Xuerou's attitude; to them, the Grand Preceptor was nothing short of a god.
They could not tolerate anyone disrespecting the Grand Preceptor.
"The...the Imperial Advisor?"
Su Xuerou was stunned.
"Grand Preceptor, you've come to save me, haven't you? Is it Mu..." Su Xuerou started to say, but then realized something was wrong and quickly changed her words.
"Is this what the Marquis meant? I did not use any evil magic. I am innocent."
"Let's put aside the matter of sorcery for now. I want to know how much you know about Ye Jintang."
"Ye Jintang?"
Su Xuerou was taken aback, clearly not expecting that the first thing the Imperial Advisor asked her would be related to Ye Jintang.
But does this mean she has a chance to go out?
Su Xuerou will not give up as long as there is even the slightest chance.
Su Xuerou quickly nodded and said, "I know, Grand Preceptor. I can tell you anything you want to know."
"But if I tell them, could you ask them to let me out?"
Judging from the attitude of these guards, Su Xuerou could deduce that this Imperial Advisor must be someone extraordinary.
And her most important task now is to seize this opportunity.
Are you trying to negotiate with me?
The Imperial Advisor narrowed his eyes slightly, showing some dissatisfaction with Su Xuerou's words.
...
For the next period of time, Ye He spent most of his time helping out at Huisheng Hall, and Ye Ling also came here more often.
"Your Highness, it's getting late."
Seeing that Ye Ling showed no sign of leaving, Ye Jintang spoke up to remind her.
Ye Ling looked aggrieved after hearing Ye Jintang's words.
"Miss Ye, are you trying to get rid of me?"
"Tang'er, that's not right of you. I still have some questions for His Highness the Regent, and besides, it's not even evening yet."
Ye Jintang was helpless.
That's enough.
Ever since Ye He came to Huishengtang, she felt that Ye Ling was acting strangely, especially when he was discussing things with Ye He, he would look at her intentionally or unintentionally if she was present.
It was as if the topic of their conversation was related to her.
However, the most important thing right now is to develop an antidote and break the curse on Ye Ling as soon as possible to prevent the situation from recurring.
She knew very well that once the Soul-Devouring Powder in Ye Ling's body took effect again...
Ye Ling's body will likely have difficulty withstanding the backlash from the toxins, and it's hard to say what will happen then.
She needs to be prepared for this.
At least we can't let things get worse.
“Father, please continue your conversation with His Highness the Regent. I will not disturb you any longer.”
As Ye Jintang responded to Ye He's words, he glanced in Ye Ling's direction, then quickly looked away.
Ye Ling watched Ye Jintang's departing figure, her eyes filled with indescribable emotions, which she then tried her best to suppress in the next second.
He couldn't be too hasty. If he only followed his own wishes, given Ye Jintang's personality, he might never have another chance.
Although Ye He didn't say anything, he saw all of this.
"Your Highness, do you take a liking to my daughter?"
Perhaps because it was just the two of them here, Ye He asked Ye Ling.
Ye Ling was only briefly stunned when faced with Ye He's question.
He looked up at the direction Ye Jintang had left in, "My feelings for Ye Jintang cannot be described simply as liking her."
He regarded Ye Jintang as something as important as his own life.
"Have you expressed your feelings to Tang'er about this?"
Ye He continued to ask Ye Ling, recalling his question to Ye Jintang back then, that some things cannot be accomplished simply because one party is willing.
"General Ye, regarding Miss Ye's temperament..."
"Her heart may not belong to me."
Ye Ling sounded somewhat melancholy as she spoke.
"Based on my understanding of Tang'er, if she didn't care at all, Your Highness probably wouldn't have any interaction with her."
Ye Ling's eyes lit up, as if she had seen a glimmer of hope.
"General Ye, do you mean I still have a chance?"
Ye He was taken aback, clearly surprised by Ye Ling's words.
Or perhaps he hadn't expected the Regent to say such a thing.
That's really surprising.
“Your Highness, although I am Tang’er’s father, my opinion does not count in this matter.”
Ye He replied.
At this moment, Ye Jintang had already entered the space.
Besides Baymax, she also brought some other small animals in. Because she can understand what the animals are saying, it makes it much easier to communicate with them or ask them to do things within their capabilities.
Big White, however, was somewhat dissatisfied with this.
[Woman, how did you bring them in? Did they get a share of the fruit too?]
Big White suddenly faced a crisis of status.
"What, you have a problem with that?"
Ye Jintang asked, "Why don't you go out?"
Big White was even more incredulous and kept barking.
[Woman, you are too cold-hearted!]
Meow.
[Big White, you're not allowed to talk to our master like that.]
A white cat, accompanied by two black cats, came over after hearing the white cat's meow.
These cats were unhappy with Big White's behavior.
Big White immediately got angry.
[What master? How dare you address someone like that?]
The three cats and Big White immediately started fighting, and the scene looked very strange.
Hearing their conversation, she had a feeling that Baymax was jealous of someone else.
Too many things must have happened recently, causing her to have these inexplicable thoughts.
She stopped paying attention to the small animals fighting. Anyway, she had enough space, and apart from not being able to bring people in, she could send the small animals out at any time if they got too rowdy.
“I have more important things to deal with now. You guys stay away. If you fight your way here, I’ll throw you out.”
The three cats all meowed in unison.
[Don't worry, Master, we're very well-behaved and will never bother you, unlike that big white dog.]
The big white thing exploded, so it's implying something about "it," right?
Although Da Bai wasn't angry in front of Ye Jintang, he didn't dare to act recklessly.
The three cats and one dog quickly disappeared from Ye Jintang's sight.
