Moreover, with the gate closed, Ye Qingxue had no way to escape; there were too many of them, and Ye Qingxue had no chance of getting away.
Ye Cunjin gave the order: "Listen to my command, close the gates of Ningcui Pavilion. Today, the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion is going to clean house, and no one is allowed to disturb us!"
There were over a hundred guards protecting Ningcui Pavilion, but only about twenty have managed to break in so far. The people outside haven't entered yet. They were guarding outside, and upon hearing the order, they immediately strode forward to close the gate again.
Seeing this, Ye Qingxue patted Bai Qi's head, and Bai Qi instantly leaped out and attacked the guards. Screams rose and fell, and the scene was chaotic.
Ye Qingxue stood there watching, a serene smile on her face. Seeing her like this, Ye Cunjin wanted to kill her! Right now, he wanted to tear her to pieces!
He drew his sword and charged towards Ye Qingxue, roaring, "I will kill you and wipe out this scourge from the Marquis's mansion!"
Ye Qingxue lashed out with her long whip, which wrapped around his longsword. Ye Cunjin was stunned for a moment, his face flushed red, and he gritted his teeth and insisted on pushing the longsword forward.
Ye Qingxue also used her strength, trying to knock his longsword away. The two were locked in a stalemate, neither able to gain the upper hand for a time.
Previously in Guanju Courtyard, Ye Cunjin lost to Ye Cunsi for two reasons: firstly, he was completely unprepared for Ye Cunsi to attack him, and secondly, he wanted to take the opportunity to make a big scene so that his people could infiltrate Guanju Courtyard to search for the whereabouts of Xiangsizi.
He was not a useless piece of trash, otherwise he would not have been promoted and given important responsibilities by Prince Ding!
Ye Qingxue gripped her long whip and sneered, "Minister Ye, I have some good news for you. Before coming to Ningcui Pavilion, I sent someone to the Sixth Prince's residence to tell him that there is a grand opera at the Marquis of Zhongyong's residence today, and I would like to invite him to bring his princess to watch it."
"Perhaps the Sixth Prince and his consort are already outside the door. If I were Minister Ye, I would only be thinking about how to deal with the Sixth Prince and his wife, instead of showing off to me here and ridiculously saying that he wants to kill me."
Ye Qingxue laughed heartily: "Even if you really can kill me, now is not a good time to kill me, my Lord."
Ye Cunjin's veins bulged: "You, a woman from the inner quarters, think you can persuade the Sixth Prince? You're spouting nonsense! You think you can scare me away and escape unscathed by saying that? Dream on!"
Not only did he not believe it, but Madam Min and Ye Yabing also did not believe it. They wished he would lead the guards to beat Ye Qingxue to death and use her blood to pay tribute to Ye Yabing's ruined face!
Just then, the gatekeeper rushed in: "Young Marquis, the Sixth Prince and his consort have arrived! The Sixth Prince is asking, asking..."
