Chapter 519: Trying to cover up the obvious
Returning to the courtyard where Ye Qing'an lived from the main courtyard, Ye Qing'an saw Yi Moxu sitting on the soft couch, and the smile that had been on her face turned cold.
Seeing Ye Qing'an's reaction, Yi Moxu couldn't help but smile and raise his eyebrows: "What's wrong? Why did you turn cold as soon as you saw me? What did I do to upset my Miss Ye?"
Ye Qing'an glanced at Yi Moxu: "You didn't make me angry, but I was disgusted by Yi Yunkui in the palace before, and then by Ye Qinghao after I came back, so I'm a little annoyed."
This identity is really inconvenient.
In her past life, when she was the regent, although some people would anger her, her status was different, and she could vent her anger and deal with those who didn't know their place without restraint.
But now, even if those disgusting people come right up to her, she can only greet them with a smile.
Ye Qing'an looked up at Yi Moxu: "I hope you will succeed in usurping the throne soon and kill Yi Yunkui. I also hope that if you ever ascend the throne, you will not become as disgusting as Yi Yunkui."
Yi Moxu couldn't help but laugh out loud. To say something like that, it seems he was truly disgusted.
“Okay, I agree.” Yi Moxu suddenly stretched out his hand towards Ye Qingan, his hand loosely clenched into a fist, with only his little finger slightly extended.
"Hmm? What is this for?"
“Simply agreeing isn’t enough. Let’s pinky swear. I think that people with power and status are easily tempted and lose their way. So, in order for me to remember this promise and to supervise me in fulfilling it, I need someone to be by my side watching over me. I think that entrusting this task to you, Qing’an, is the most suitable.”
Bah, conspiracy.
rhetoric.
A man's mouth, a liar.
If we could believe everything men say, then pigs could fly.
Ye Qing'an was making plans in her mind when she simply raised her hand and slapped Yi Moxu's hand away.
"I won't fall for your tricks."
Yi Moxu chuckled softly, thinking to himself that the girl in front of him probably thought he was being very aggressive when he said those words. In reality... the voice sounded more like she was being coquettish, as if gently tickling one's heart, but this tickling only made one's heart itch more.
Yi Moxu smiled and shook his head. This side of Ye Qing'an was truly irresistible. He could only turn his eyes away and said with a smile, "Is it Ye Qinghao who wants to see you? Can you tell Ye Qinghao what happened in the palace? And what was Ye Qinghao's reaction?"
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips gently: "I told Ye Qinghao, and he confirmed it several times. He even asked me how confident I was in your diagnosis. After I told him that you were extremely confident, Ye Qinghao agreed that if Yi Yun Kui's method worked, he would definitely come to you for treatment."
"Ye Qinghao hopes that I can find a way to make you completely devoted to me, so that you will tell me as soon as Yi Yun Kui finds you."
"Will you be completely devoted to me?" Yi Moxu seemed only interested in Ye Qing'an's question: "Then, Miss Ye, how do you plan to make me completely devoted to you? Has Ye Qinghao given you any advice or taught you how to do it?"
"No!" Ye Qing'an answered quickly, naturally not telling Yi Moxu what Ye Qinghao had said.
This reaction, however, made Yi Moxu narrow his eyes.
This is just a cover-up...
Yi Moxu raised an eyebrow, showing great interest in Ye Qinghao's suggestion.
What exactly did Ye Qinghao say that caused Ye Qing'an to react so strongly?
However, Yi Moxu knew that she would not be able to get any information out of Ye Qing'an. She secretly made a plan in her mind, and a smile flashed in her eyes.
He couldn't get any information out of Ye Qing'an, but he could start with Ye Qinghao.
After all, he is now considered a retainer of Ye Qinghao, isn't he?
Ye Qinghao still wants to use him, doesn't he?
Ye Qing'an had no idea what Yi Moxu was planning. She assumed that Yi Moxu had given up on pressing the matter after hearing her rebuttal, and simply said, "But I feel that since Ye Qinghao already knows that Yi Yunkui's excessive yang depletion has caused his dual cultivation with the furnace to stagnate and even cause his spiritual energy to flow backward, he certainly won't really wait for Yi Yunkui to come to you for treatment before trying to find a solution..."
Ye Qing'an recalled Ye Qinghao's reaction and the words he said when she had impersonated Ye Huajin's ghost to meet him...
Ye Qinghao definitely wanted to kill Yi Yunkui, but perhaps he hadn't had a suitable opportunity before, or perhaps he hadn't made the necessary arrangements, and because Yi Yunkui was also very wary of him, Ye Qinghao hadn't made a move.
But now, one opportunity after another is presented to him.
First, Ye Huajin's spirit also wanted to seek revenge on Yi Yunkui.
Later, Yi Yun Kui planned to use her, and even take her into his harem.
Now, Yi Moxu has diagnosed that Yi Yunkui's excessive yang energy depletion has caused a backflow of spiritual energy, hindering his cultivation...
Each and every one of these events presents an excellent opportunity for Ye Qinghao to exploit.
A person like Ye Qinghao would certainly try every possible opportunity to seize, provided that everything is safe.
"I think he might use this incident to do something beforehand."
Yi Moxu nodded: "Perhaps."
"This is not difficult. In recent years, Yi Yun Kui has become increasingly reliant on furnaces and pills, probably because he is getting older and cultivation is becoming more and more difficult. This is an excellent opportunity to take advantage of."
Ye Qing'an chuckled lightly: "If Ye Qinghao really makes a move, that would be good too. Let's see who's stronger and more ruthless when dogs fight each other."
Yi Moxu hummed in agreement, but seemed uninterested: "Yi Yunkui has managed to stay in that position for so many years without being overthrown, he's not a fool. He may have had some suspicions about Ye Qinghao's disappearance. Today, you and I are here to examine him in the palace, so he will definitely be wary of us and the people and things related to the Ye family. It won't be easy for Ye Qinghao to make a move."
"However, it would be nice if someone could pull a tooth out of Yi Yun Kui's mouth, or pluck his beard."
"However, I don't think these things are very important."
Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow: "These things aren't that important?"
"Ah."
"Then what does Prince Duan consider to be the most important thing?"
When Yi Moxu heard Ye Qing'an ask this, he looked at Ye Qing'an intently and said, "The most important and urgent thing is that I want to know where I should sleep tonight."
"What?" Ye Qing'an thought she had misheard and stared at Yi Moxu: "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Seeing Ye Qing'an's expression, as if her tail had been stepped on, Yi Moxu couldn't help but laugh: "Isn't this... important? After all, in everyone's eyes, I've been away from the Ye residence and Wangjing City for so many days. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. If I had just returned today and hadn't been summoned by Miss Ye to serve her in bed, it might easily arouse suspicion..."
