Chapter 317 Must Not Live
"Yes." Ye Qing'an nodded: "I remember it very clearly. The sword was pure white and had a faint blue glow."
Yi Yun Kui responded, then glanced at Ye Qing An again: "He hurt you?"
"Yes." Ye Qing'an lowered his head: "He stabbed me in the abdomen, but it was probably when someone took me out of that dark dungeon that they treated my wound."
Ye Qing'an looked down at her blood-stained clothes: "Moreover, that person did not use spiritual power when he injured me, and now the wound has healed without leaving a scar."
"That's good."
"Your Majesty, how is my brother now? Earlier in that bustling marketplace, my brother seemed a bit off. I watched as he suddenly lost his mind. I don't know what happened, but those words could never have been what my brother truly meant..."
"I know." Yi Yun Kui glanced casually at the sky outside, which was gradually turning gray. "Your father has already taken your brother back, and everything is fine now."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qing'an immediately smiled and said, "Really? That's good, that's good. It's wonderful that Fei Ran is alright."
Yi Yun Kui's gaze fell on Ye Qing An's smiling face. He remained silent for a while before saying, "I will definitely find out the truth about today's events and give Prime Minister Ye and you an explanation. It's getting late, and you've been up all night. I'll send someone to take you back to the Ye residence first."
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."
Yi Yunkui instructed He Yi: "He Yi, escort Miss Ye back to her residence."
"Yes."
After Ye Qing'an and He Yi left, Yi Yun Kui slammed his hand on the table, his eyes filled with rage.
The eunuch standing nearby quickly said, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
"Heh... Calm down?" Yi Yun Kui sneered, "You really think I'm blind and deaf, causing such a scene right under my nose?"
"The Gu family..."
Yi Yun Kui gripped the armrests of the chair tightly: "Is the Gu family panicking? Are they scared? Are they afraid that Gu Duo is really not dead? Are they afraid that Gu Duo will come to take revenge on them? So they've started resorting to any means necessary?"
"The Gu family?" The eunuch lowered his eyes, seemingly puzzled.
Yi Yun Kui raised his eyes and glanced at the eunuch: "Don't tell me you don't know that the snow-white sword with a faint blue light that Ye Qing An mentioned is the White Sand Sword in Gu Hai's hand?"
"I noticed earlier that Gu Hai disappeared for a full half hour while the banquet was in full swing. I was wondering about it, but I didn't expect that Gu Hai went to interrogate Ye Qing'an. He's really desperate. Even if Gu Duo is really in the Ye residence, Ye Qing'an is just an unfavored daughter of the Ye family. What could she possibly know? Would Ye Qinghao tell her?"
The eunuch lowered his eyes and smiled: "Yes, it is absolutely impossible for them to deceive His Majesty."
"Deceive me?" Yi Yun Kui sneered: "The Gu family, along with Gu Ya Yun, did this without ever trying to avoid me. If they really wanted to avoid me, they would have simply kidnapped Ye Qing An and interrogated her anywhere outside the palace. After the interrogation, they would have killed her without anyone knowing."
"This whole show was just for me. Gu Yayun summoned Ye Qing'an to the palace. Once Ye Qing'an was in the palace, Ye Qinghao would not let it go. Gu Hai interrogated Ye Qing'an, but only stabbed her a few times as a threat. He did not want to kill Ye Qing'an."
“As long as Ye Qing’an is still in the palace, as long as Ye Qing’an is not dead, I will be able to see Ye Qing’an sooner or later. When I see Ye Qing’an, I will know that they asked about Gu Duo. Moreover, he has taken out the White Sand Sword, which clearly wants me to know that it is Gu Hai.”
Yi Yun Kui knew exactly what was going on, but his smile grew colder: "Previously, rumors were circulating everywhere that Gu Duo was not dead and was in the Ye residence. However, I did not actually send anyone to investigate, so the Gu family was unhappy. Therefore, they went to great lengths to bring this matter to my attention, hoping to get my attention and make me find a way to investigate."
"The Gu family can't investigate the Ye family, but I can."
Upon hearing Yi Yun Kui's words, the eunuch couldn't help but lift his eyelids slightly: "Then Your Majesty would you like to..."
Yi Yun Kui's expression was icy: "Heh, one after another, they all want to scheme against me. We'll see if they have the ability."
"It's not a good thing for powerful aristocratic families to hold such high positions. It seems it's time to find a way to weaken their power. As for Gu Duo's matter..."
Yi Yun Kui narrowed his eyes slightly: "It seems that Gu Duo is most likely still alive. If there were no solid evidence and suspicion, the Gu family would not have acted so rashly. Gu Duo cannot be alive; he knows too many secrets. Even if he had already gone mad when he returned to Si You Kingdom ten years ago."
Even if he's gone mad, I wouldn't feel at ease.
Yi Yun Kui closed his eyes, and a lot of things suddenly flashed through his mind.
All sorts of chaotic things disturbed his peace of mind. After a long while, Yi Yun Kui murmured and repeated, "Gu Duo must not live. If he lives, he will be a disaster."
……
Ye Qing'an had already left the palace. A carriage was parked at the palace gate. He Yi cupped his hands towards Ye Qing'an and said, "Miss Ye, please."
Ye Qing'an responded and got into the carriage.
The carriage quickly began to move forward. Ye Qing'an briefly reviewed the events of the day in her mind, and then recalled the question that Yi Yun Kui had asked her earlier, and quickly came to her senses.
Gu Ya Yun and Gu Hai did it on purpose...
Ye Qing'an glanced casually at the swaying curtains of the carriage. Although Gu Hai and Gu Ya Yun were not particularly clever, Gu Ya Yun had spent so much time by Yi Yun Kui's side that she should know him quite well.
Except for the fact that she hid in Yunhua Palace at the end, which caught Gu Yayun off guard and made her a little flustered, everything else should be under her control.
Since they did this, they must have been confident.
After returning to the manor, she needed to give Ye Qinghao a heads-up so that he could be prepared.
And it's perfect timing; she can show off her skills in front of Ye Qinghao again. The time is almost right; she needs to find a way and an opportunity to elevate her status in the Ye family...
Then create an opportunity for yourself to gradually take control of the Ye family mansion.
What kind of opportunity?
How can she make everyone in the Ye family obey her orders?
Ye Qing'an curled the corners of her lips. It wasn't impossible, as long as... as long as Ye Qinghao wasn't in the manor.
Ye Qinghao was not at home.
When the tiger is away, the monkey reigns supreme; and she is now that monkey.
Ye Qing'an's lips curled up slightly, a dark glint flashing in her eyes. Although Yi Yun Kui was furious about the Gu family's actions, he should already be suspicious of Ye Qing Hao...
