Ye family.
Ye Xiaosha carried Ye Xingchen on his back and ran straight to the main house. The two elders of the Ye family asked everyone to leave, leaving only a few old servants who knew everything about the family to guard outside the yard.
"Haven't you pretended enough? Hurry up and get up. I'm so tired from the journey." Ye Xiaosha glared at Ye Xingchen angrily.
Ye Xingchen then opened his eyes faintly: "How do you know I was pretending to be dead?"
In one sentence, Ye Xiaosha was stunned.
Yes, it was only after he heard Ye Xingchen’s inner thoughts that he realized she was pretending to be dead.
Should I say that I can hear your thoughts? If I say that, this damn girl will definitely not think about anything in her mind anymore.
"How could you be willing to die if you are such a greedy and cowardly person? When you were a child, you always clamored to compete with me for the Ye family's property." Ye Xiaosha made an excuse.
Ye Xingchen smiled awkwardly: "I was so ambitious when I was a child."
"Silly girl, is this the point? The point is that you are not dead. May the ancestors of the Ye family bless me. My star is fine, that's enough." Ye's mother, who had been so strong in the hall just now, had tears in her eyes at this moment.
Ye Xingchen was deeply moved and sat up immediately: "Mom, don't cry. I'm fine. Cang Tingchen can't hurt me."
"Then why did you vomit blood after being beaten by him? The blood on your clothes scared your mother and me to death?" Ye's father asked worriedly.
“I originally wanted to fight back, but then I thought that since he was injured, the Emperor and Concubine Xuan would definitely not let me go, so I did the opposite and pretended that I was seriously injured and beaten to death by him.
In fact, I didn't expect that we would be able to divorce smoothly today. I guess it was because my father provided evidence of Prince Mo's corruption, and the emperor just happened to find the silver.
That's why I agreed to the divorce to comfort the Ye family. But you are too awesome, Dad. You caught such a big handle on King Mo and used it at the critical moment to buy my daughter's freedom. You are too awesome, Dad." Ye Xingchen was full of admiration.
Listening to his daughter's praise, Ye's father coughed twice guiltily. Could he say that he decided to join King Mo because he heard his daughter's voice?
"We have stores in four countries, so we naturally know a lot of news. Your father's move will hit the target at the critical moment." Ye's mother immediately tried to smooth things over.
"Yes, your mother is right. That was the news brought back by the people in the shop." Ye's father agreed.
"Then Dad and Mom, please help me thank the person who brought the message later." Ye Xingchen said gratefully.
She never thought that it was because everyone heard her inner voice. This scene was not written in the storybook, so Ye Xingchen had no idea that her inner voice was heard by others.
"Okay, Dad will reward them handsomely later." Ye's father said awkwardly.
Ye Xiaosha watched his parents' awkward performance and immediately came to the rescue: "What are your plans for the future? In the eyes of Prince Mo and the Emperor, you are a dead man now. If they knew that you faked your death, would it be a crime of deceiving the emperor?"
"The emperor is the most suspicious. If I were to survive, he would definitely vent his anger on the Ye family and would not let anyone in the Ye family go. So I have to live a different way." Ye Xingchen analyzed.
"Why is it different?" Ye Xiaosha was curious.
"Then I won't tell you. I'm hungry after being busy all night. Do you have anything to eat at our house, Dad and Mom?" Ye Xingchen's stomach growled twice in response.
"Yes, there must be. If you don't have one, your mother will make it for you personally. You have suffered a lot in Prince Mo's Mansion in the past few years. From now on, you should stay at home and let your parents raise you." Mother Ye said with tears in her eyes.
Ye Xingchen felt warm in his heart: "Thank you, mother."
"Silly child, just tell your mother what you mean by thank you. I will do it right away." Mother Ye said and left.
"Girl, your mother and I are old. Now we just hope that you guys are safe and sound." Father Ye sighed.
"Don't worry, Dad. I will never have anything to do with him! Please take this divorce letter to the most lively place in the capital of Cangyue Kingdom tomorrow and read it out, so that everyone knows that I have broken up with King Mo." Ye Xingchen said.
Father Ye was relieved now: "Okay, let's do as you say. I want everyone to know that my daughter has nothing to do with King Mo anymore."
"What do you need me to do?" Ye Xiaosha came over and asked.
"After my father makes the announcement tomorrow, you should bring some more people with you and take the divorce letter to Prince Mo's Mansion to get back my dowry!" Ye Xingchen replied.
"You're right. My sister's dowry is still in Prince Mo's Mansion. We must not let that bastard Cang Tingchen get it for free. He can't even think of taking a penny." Ye Xiaosha said angrily.
Soon, Ye's mother came with several guests and brought many dishes.
Looking at the sumptuous dishes that couldn't even fit on the table, Ye Xingchen frowned: "Mom, isn't this too sumptuous?"
"It's a rare opportunity for you to escape from Prince Mo's Mansion and regain your freedom. Let's celebrate tonight!" Ye's mother said generously.
"You're right, we should celebrate properly." Father Ye agreed.
Ye Xingchen said no more and raised his glass to toast his parents. The two elders of the Ye family were so moved that their eyes were red. Ye Xiaosha couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat. The family was finally reunited and could have a good meal.
And the Mo Palace.
After King Mo returned, he was furious and immediately ordered people to throw all of Ye Xingchen's things out.
"Damn Ye Yongcheng, he actually dared to accuse me of embezzling money. Who gave him the courage? Since he is seeking death, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless. Someone come here!" Cang Tingchen said angrily.
The confidant Gu Jiu came in immediately: "What do you want, Your Majesty?"
"Notify the secret guards, kill all the members of the Ye family without leaving any alive, and do it cleanly!" Cang Tingchen spoke every word with extreme cruelty.
Gu Jiu froze: "Your Majesty, you just had a falling out with the Ye family tonight. Wouldn't it be too obvious to take action now?"
Cang Tingchen glared at him: "When did I ever need you to question my actions? Go now. You can't relieve the hatred in my heart unless you kill all the Ye family members."
"Yes." Gu Jiu went out.
Fu Yurou, who had been waiting outside the yard, finally walked in: "After a whole night of hard work, Your Highness must be tired. Let me massage your shoulders for you." As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and began to massage with moderate force.
Ever since Prince Mo and his men entered the palace, Fu Yurou had been sending people to keep an eye on what was going on in the mansion. Now that she heard that the prince and Ye Xingchen had divorced, Fu Yurou almost jumped for joy.
Great, Ye Xingchen is finally gone, from now on she will be Princess Mo.
Cang Tingchen's cold expression finally softened a bit: "Rou'er still understands me the best. Ye Xingchen is such a idiot, and my father actually let me divorce her. He is really lucky."
"Your Highness, will the Ye family do anything bad to you? After all, Ye Xingchen is in trouble." Fu Yurou seemed concerned, but was actually testing you.
"What are you afraid of? I will make the Ye family disappear completely tonight!" There was a fierce murderous look in Cang Tingchen's eyes.
Fu Yurou pretended to be surprised, but she was actually very happy in her heart.
Kill them all, and no one will go against her anymore.
Cang Tingchen pulled Fu Yurou in front of him and let her sit on his lap.
"Your Highness." Fu Yurou replied in a soft voice.
"You little devil." Cang Tingchen picked up Fu Yurou and ran straight to the bed. He threw her on the bed and pressed her down with his whole body.
As a result, he suddenly saw Fu Yurou's shy face turned into Ye Xingchen's face, with a blood red face, bulging eyes, and a long tongue, just like a hanged ghost. Cang Tingchen was instantly frightened.
"Ghost, ghost!" Cang Tingchen roared and kicked Fu Yurou off the bed.
