d a defeat, and now morale is low. If he were to go to war at this time, it would probably be unwise.”Mo Junyi heard her mention the matter at hand, his brow furrowed now, "Uncle Wu's army in Beijiang...But her parents had clearly agreed to help the Northern Border Princess more, so she went to inquire with Ye Er a few days ago. They didn't object.
So their current attitude is that after using Ye Er once, they can just abandon him, have no further contact with him, and feel justified in throwing stones at him from the well
She still can't believe her parents would say such things.
Had she not accidentally overheard it, she would never have known that her mother had just used Ye Er and now wanted to hire a hitman to kill him.
Although her mother's proposal had been rejected by her father, she still found it unbelievable when she thought about it now.
Let's not dwell on whether Ye Er is innocent in this whole affair, nor discuss Ye Er's deliberate reminder today about the character of that young master Chen. Just focusing on Ye Er's initiative to break off the engagement and his response to her plea a few days ago, shouldn't these actions alone be enough to reveal his true nature
Her mother was even trying to muddy the waters, spending money on assassins at this critical juncture just to take Ye Er's life.
Today was not a day when she willingly avoided the guards around her to meet Ye Er privately, nor was it her intention to make things so secretive.
She knew that even if she spoke until her throat was raw, her mother wouldn't agree to let her warn Ye Er about the hired assassins pursuing him.
Her mother not only wouldn't agree to let her go, but would also stop anyone who might try to report it.
So she had to go on this trip herself. On the way back, she thought about how to make sure her mother wouldn't misunderstand anything between her and Ye Er. She decided to tell her everything that happened today when she met Ye Er.
She would also tell her mother about Master Chen's affair, hoping that through Master Chen's story, her mother could understand that despite being a member of the Ye family, Ye Er was not a bad person.
If someone else's character is flawed, they will only allow themselves to be deceived by the young master of the Chen family. There is no need to tell her about the young master's ugliness at all.
But now it seems that no matter what she says or explains, her mother won't listen.
She will only think that everything she says is an excuse, and she might even misunderstand that she is defending Ye Er so earnestly because she actually has feelings for him.
But she dared to swear her life that she had no feelings for Ye Er at all!
As her mother, she knew perfectly well that her daughter had liked Jiang Qingyang for many years. It was impossible to completely erase someone from one's heart overnight.
Her mother still didn't understand her.
The more she thought about it, the heavier her heart felt. Xiao Qin suddenly didn't want to say another word. She took two steps back, "Father, Mother, my brothers were demoted because I accidentally killed Ye Xiaoming. If we trace it back, I am the one responsible for causing Father and Mother to be separated from their son and grandson. I take full responsibility for all the wrongdoing. But Ye大人 might still be useful to the Northern Border Princess. I hope Father and Mother won't do anything to him."
Then she remembered her mother's temper and realized that in a fit of rage, she could very well hire an assassin. So, she quickly added:
"To have the brothers back, the only hope now rests on the two masters of Beijang Royal Manor. Father and mother should understand this better than their daughter. So, whether Ye Lord should stay or not, you are very clear about it."
The Marquis Anle had always understood this clearly, which is why he disagreed with his wife's plan from the start.
...whether it was emotion that overwhelmed her reason, or genuine hatred for the Ye family that gnawed at her, upon hearing this from Xiaoqin, she rebelled. Gritting her teeth, she uttered each word, "If I don't keep him, what else can he do" ...
"..."
Of course, her mother couldn't calm down now. Xiaoqin instantly lost the desire to speak.
She did not respond to Lady Hou's words, instead turning her gaze to her father, her voice weak and lacking in energy. "Please forgive your daughter for being unfilial and causing displeasure to both father and mother. Your daughter sees that this grand mansion of the Anle Marquis seems to have no place for her anymore. If so, your daughter will leave."
"Qin'er, you..."
Lord Anle wanted to speak up and stop her, but Madam Hou, enraged by Xiao Qin, immediately pointed at her and roared, "Get out! Leaving is it Go then… if you have the ability, don't ever come back!"
"Madam, why do you insist on this Why not speak civilly Where do you expect Qin'er to go Where could she possibly go"
"What does it have to do with you Today, either she leaves or I leave. Doesn't she have the ability If she's so capable, how could she possibly have nowhere to go I want to open my eyes wide and see what she is really like once she's left Anle Houfu!"
"...."
This is getting serious.
Before Anlehou and Xini could even react, Xiaoqin had already turned around and was walking out, step by step.
Qing Ya had already been so frightened by Madam Hou's temper that she didn't even dare to breathe deeply. She had wanted to remind her young mistress to be more compliant, but she never imagined things would end up like this.
Was their young mistress driven out of the marquis's mansion by the madam
This... This is not good at all!
"No, Qin'er, Qin'er come back. Your mother doesn't really want to drive you away, you.."
"Don't call her name! Just tell her to leave!"
Behind her, Anle Hou and his wife's voices were clearly heard by Xiao Qin, but she remained impassive and continued forward.
Qīngyá hurried to pay respects to Anlè Hóu and his wife, then ran after Xiāo qín.
After the two had walked a distance away from the Marquis's Mansion, Xiao Qin's steps gradually slowed down.
Xiao Qin let out a wry smile. "Today's situation isn't running away from home at all. If I didn't leave today, my mother wouldn't be able to calm down. These past years, I've always known she blames me, blames me for accidentally killing Ye Xiaoming and causing my two brothers to be demoted to that remote county, leaving her family torn apart."
"......Qing Ya pursed her lips, looking at her young mistress with concern. After a moment's hesitation, she comforted, "Don't worry, miss. You are also the lady's daughter, flesh of her flesh. The lady is just angry now, and what she said shouldn't be taken to heart."
A trace of bitterness flashed across Xiaoqin's face. "Actually, I've always known this. In my mother's heart, she feels that if I hadn't insisted on making a scene back then, things wouldn't have turned out this way. If I had just married Ye Xiaoming obediently, there wouldn't be all these troublesome aftereffects."
Moreover, in her mother's eyes, the head of the Ye family back then was an emperor’s childhood friend and even the Imperial Physician Superintendent. She, a county princess from the Anle Hou Mansion, marrying into the Ye family was a much more suitable match than marrying Jiang Qingyang.
Over the years, her mother never said anything. But whenever her mother missed her son and grandson, she would inadvertently show a hint of resentment towards her.
So she now must leave the Hou Mansion, at least to let her mother recover on her own.
Green Sprout was tongue-tied, and at this moment, she didn't know how to comfort her young mistress.
"Well then, miss, where shall we go next"was something she had seen with her own eyes, and Mo Yunjing had also told her that his mother's appearance was exactly the same as in the painting.So, the woman lying in bed at this time is not Mo Yu...
