Inside the main hall of the South Palace.
“How dare he?” Ye Fengtian, who had already learned that they were placed under house arrest, roared low with a face as black as the bottom of a pot, comparable to Lord Bao in a towering rage.
“Why does he dare not? Even if he overturns the sky, His Majesty will not do anything to him, and the law enforcement will only turn a blind eye,” Su Qin responded.
“This aside, what’s wrong with you, Li’er? Are you short-sighted or stupid? You could have told us those words in private, but you just have to say them in front of His Royal Highness,” Su Qin also pointed a finger directly at Ye Qianli.
Hearing this, Ye Fengtian also looked at Ye Qianli sullenly. His eyes obviously expressed dissatisfaction. “Li’er, what you said and did today is really absurd.”
Ye Qianli has yet to go and freshen up. Because they were subjected to a house arrest out of the blue, her parents seized her for interrogation. Her parents looked at her dirty, bloodstained self, but never showed a tiny bit of concern at all.
Earlier, it was because the situation didn’t permit it. After all, the Crown Prince forbade her to leave, but what about now? She was also not allowed to retreat and freshen up, or heal…much less get a word of concern or condolences.
“Uncle, Aunt, do not censure Sister. She-She has already suffered enough. If she did something wrong, it is also justifiable.” And Su Lianhua, who was also present at this time, immediately timidly defended Ye Qianli.
When Su Qin heard her, she felt exasperated towards Ye Qianli’s incompetence and glared at her as expected. “Look, Hua’er is still sensible. You resent her so much, yet she is considerate towards you. If you possessed a bit of Hua’er’s merits, I would have nothing to worry about.”
Yes, it has always been like this. Every time she did something, Su Lianhua was the sweetheart. while Ye Qianli was the stupid fool who contrasted her goodness.
“All right, Li’er is less sensible, but Hua’er really did wrong this time. Where is Sister Nan? Can she find out how the poisoned tea came about and how it was delivered to Li’er’s mouth,” Ye Fengtian, however, opposed.
Su Lianhua’s face visibly paled upon hearing his questions, but Su Qin quickly pulled her into her embrace and comforted her. She also gave Ye Fengtian a glare out of the corner of her eye. “What? Are you also like Li’er, believing that Hua’er did it?”
“……” Ye Fengtian did not say a word. In fact, he did have such a thought. After all, from a logical analysis, there was no way that any miscreant could enter his South Palace to poison someone. Then it could only be an insider job.
“Ye Fengtian what do you mean?” Su Qin’s expression changed when he made no response.
“Father’s meaning is very simple. Even Sister Hua is also suspected, because no outsider can enter my Qingfeng Hall to do evil under Dad’s divine sense. So, anyone who has served me and touched this cup of tea is suspected. Sister Hua is especially so.
I refused to drink tea at the time, but she insisted on persuading me to drink. Every servant present at the time could testify. I would like to ask Sister Hua, why? Moreover, letting me drink poison was not enough, but you also let me swallow a Heavenly Yutan flower. And then, you left me poisoned and ran away. Why?” Ye Qianli picked up the conversation.
These why’s she took out were akin to needles, sharply piercing Su Lianhua’s heart. And that wasn’t the end of it, she also suddenly stared at Su Lianhua and questioned word by word, “Is this tea poisoned? Honestly speaking, was it you who administered it? Or…”
“Shut up!” Su Qin, however, interrupted protectively. Sadly, she was protecting not Ye Qianli, her own daughter, but Su Lianhua, which was simply incomprehensible.
But this kind of situation has been staged in the Ye family all the time. Ye Fengtian was therefore very accustomed to it and felt nothing wrong about it. He only frowned because of Ye Qianli’s questioning and fell into contemplation.
“Why should I shut up? Mother, am I not asking the right questions? Father, have you not thought about who will get the most benefit if something goes wrong with your divine daughter’s body? My marriage contract with the Crown Prince will be cancelled. By then, besides Cousin Hua, who else in the dynasty can tie the knot with the Crown Prince?”
“Snap!”
Ye Qianli was asking a rhetorical question, but a slap suddenly swung right in front of her eyes! Very heavy, very cruel slap, and this slap was Su Qin’s doing. She used her profound strength for it.
“!”
Seeing such a slap, it was bound to hit Ye Qianli’s face! Between a lightning bolt and a spark, no one saw what happened, but when this slap fell, the person who received it turned out to be Su Lianhua.
“Poof——” Su Lianhua, who was caught off guard, was hit and spurted out a mouthful of blood and teeth. On top of that, she also collapsed to the ground with gold stars spinning before her eyes. One side of her exquisite face was awfully swollen.
Compared with the intentional slap earlier, this was a real slap. The previous slap in the hall only made Su Lianhua’s face red, but she was now beaten to the point where she was swollen. She even lost two big teeth…
“Mother, this is the last time I will call you Mother. Su Lianhua is your daughter. You only picked me up, right?” Ye Qianli lightly gave the miserable, dumbfounded Su Lianhua a glance, then said calmly to Su Qin.
At this point, in Ye Qianli’s heart, this Su Qin was just Su Qin, not a mother, and has nothing to do with her body.
“You…” Su Qin was also a little confused. She couldn’t understand. She clearly was going to hit her daughter, Ye Qianli, but slapped her niece instead.
She was dumbfounded, but when she met Ye Qianli’s indifferent cold eyes, a nameless fire rose in her heart. Her beautiful face was therefore somewhat distorted, glaring at her wicked daughter in front of her. She ordered, “Kneel!”
“You are not worthy.” Ye Qianli, of course, would never kneel. After stating this, she even turned towards the house and walked away without sparing a glance to this mother, or that father.
“You…” Su Qin was enraged.
“Li’er, stop right there.” Ye Fengtian also became angry.
“Father, this is not the time to forbid me, Ye Qianli. You’d better think about how to deal with the Crown Prince. He looks like he is angered elsewhere and intends to use the Ye family as a punching bag.” Ye Qianli, however, responded indifferently, walking out without slowing down for a moment.
Ye Fengtian was rendered speechless with her advice!
And while he was stunned, Ye Qianli had already opened the door of the house, but at this moment, she felt a formidable wind behind her, sweeping straight towards the back of her sleeveless attire.
This formidable wind, without a doubt, came from Su Qin, who rose to her feet. “You wicked daughter. I don’t believe I can’t teach you a lesson today.”
“Doctor Jiang is here——” Simultaneously, Yan Nanfei just happened to announce Doctor Jiang’s arrival, whom he brought along. Then he saw a pathetic Ye Qianli lunging towards him.
“Eunuch Yan, my mother is going to kill me. Save me…”
“Poof…” Ye Qianli ran to Yan Nanfei, vomited blood and was about to fall. She scared Yan Nanfei into instinctively catching her.
Then Yan Nanfei witnessed the lady of the Ye family, who the Crown Prince “disliked,” roll her eyes indecently, and then fainted…
“Princess Ye is quite majestic. You’ve got the audacity to yell and kill the future Crown Princess.” Before Ye Qianli rolled her eyes and pretended to faint, she heard Yan Nanfei’s shrill eunuch voice, reprimanding in a very majestic manner.
At the same time, someone clasped her wrist, and a strange strand of power instantly drilled into her limbs and bones. It suddenly gave her a sense of having nowhere to hide.
Bad!
Inside the main hall of the South Palace.
