Dongbai, who had been following behind her, immediately stopped and asked, "Miss, should we go help His Highness?"
“Those were the people he wanted to protect, the enemies he wanted to fight. It was only right that he risked his life,” Ye Qingxue said. “Why should we go?”
She hasn't finished avenging herself yet. If Yun Zhuo chooses to sacrifice himself for the Luo family, then let him sacrifice himself.
She had already saved his life, asked a divine healer to cure his injuries, and refrained from stopping him; that was the greatest support she could give him. There was no need for her to risk her own life as well.
She was going to die in five days. She hadn't even settled her own life yet. Besides hatred, she also had people she wanted to protect.
Dong Bai breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried that Ye Qingxue would help Yun Zhuo, but now he was finally at ease.
Yun Zhuo is the deposed crown prince, and those who oppose him are the high and mighty Empress Dowager, and even the emperor who controls the life and death of everyone in the world.
If Ye Qingxue were to help him, it would be like throwing an egg against a rock; she feared she wouldn't die quickly or miserably enough.
Hearing a commotion coming from the side gate, Dongbai immediately rushed over to check the situation and returned shortly with a note. "It was brought by a little beggar."
Ye Qingxue took it, opened it, and saw Qiu Shen's handwriting on it, which contained only two words: "Lan Family".
Dongbai: "Why are there only two characters written? What does this mean?"
"Yes, what does that mean?" Ye Qingxue thought, her eyes suddenly widening. Qiu Shen meant that Ye Cunjin had gone to the Lan family!
He actually went to the Lan family. He humiliated Miss Lan and made Ye Cunsi take the blame. Now he actually has the courage to go to the Lan family.
What was his purpose in going to the Lan family at this moment?
Ye Qingxue started pacing around the courtyard again, her mind racing, trying to figure out Ye Cunjin's purpose in going to the Lan family at this time.
Qiu Shen should have gone with them, but the Lan family is a general's mansion, and it would be difficult to sneak in. That's why they sent someone to deliver a message to her in advance, while Qiu Shen continued to investigate at the Lan family.
She couldn't just sit and wait to die.
If Qiu Shen's message arrives only after Ye Cunjin has achieved his goal, wouldn't there be no room for maneuver?
Ye Qingxue racked her brains, feeling like her head was about to explode. She couldn't help but pinch her fingers until they bled.
—Ye Cunjin may be capable, but he is immoral and selfish. He will not bother to take the right path if he can get something through shortcuts.
Princess Rongqing was only seven years old. Although she was of noble status, Ye Cunjin was willing to marry her even though he did not know her character or personality. This shows that Ye Cunjin wanted to ride on the coattails of the Prince's Mansion.
Ye Cunjin wanted to rise through the ranks and achieve great success!
Although she ruined the marriage with the Prince's family, once desires are swelled, they are hard to extinguish. Ye Cunjin will do anything to get what he wants!
There must be something right in front of him, and Ye Cunjin reached out to get it, but she stopped him. Ye Cunjin had no choice but to find another opportunity to get that thing.
Ye Qingxue suddenly opened her eyes wide; she understood Ye Cunjin's purpose in going to the Lan family.
This matter may seem to have nothing to do with her, but upon closer inspection, it is inextricably linked to her. She cannot let Ye Cunjin succeed!
Ye Qingxue immediately turned around and walked out, her steps quick and her expression urgent, but after taking three steps, she suddenly stopped.
"Dongbai, go and call the Second Young Master out so we can go out of the manor together—no, I'll go and call him, you go and prepare a carriage and wait outside the side gate."
She spoke very quickly, as if something extremely urgent had happened. Dongbai didn't dare to delay and ran off to handle the matter.
When Ye Cunxi was quickly pushed out by Ye Qingxue, he was still in a daze: "Big sister, where are we going?"
Ye Qingxue replied, "Go to the Lan family's house."
