Chapter 548 Too hasty
Ye Qing'an chuckled to herself. She wondered how furious the Crown Prince would have been if she had been the one who had encountered that incident.
All she knew was how moved she would be if she were just an innocent young girl, hearing the Crown Prince's words and reflecting on what had happened before.
The Crown Prince is truly shrewd; even under these circumstances, he still hasn't forgotten to scheme against her.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for protecting me with your life. I will always remember this kindness. If Your Highness ever needs anything from me in the future, I, Ye Qing'an, will go through fire and water for you without hesitation."
"Who asked you to go through fire and water..." The Crown Prince chuckled, his gaze towards Ye Qing'an becoming increasingly gentle: "I'm not doing this so that you'll go through fire and water."
"Alright." The Crown Prince waved his hand. "I'm also a little tired and want to rest for a while. You don't need to feel too guilty. You weren't even in the tent at the time; it was my own carelessness."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Your Highness was indeed too hasty in dealing with what happened last night. Your Highness is of noble birth and should not have rushed in so rashly. At the very least, you should have sent someone to investigate. Moreover, I believe that the best approach would have been to send your subordinates in to rescue them directly."
"Especially since we are about to go to the battlefield, although I have never been to the battlefield before, I know how dangerous it is, with countless traps and conspiracies. If we are not careful, we will lose our lives. Your Highness, please never do such a thing in the future."
Ye Qing'an's attitude was extremely sincere, but the words he spoke almost made the Crown Prince vomit blood.
What does Ye Qing'an mean by this?
Is he being accused of being too reckless?
Who was he doing this for?
The Crown Prince, upon realizing this, couldn't help but feel a jolt of unease. No, he hadn't actually intended to save Ye Qing'an...
Could it be that Ye Qing'an already knew, and that's why she said that on purpose?
The Crown Prince raised his eyes and stared intently at Ye Qing'an, only to see that Ye Qing'an's face was full of concern.
Is she really too straightforward, or is she scheming?
The Crown Prince felt that he really couldn't see through Ye Qing'an, so he took a deep breath and suppressed his emotions: "Okay, I understand."
"Then Your Highness should take good care of your injuries. I will take my leave now."
Just as Ye Qing'an stood up, he heard the Fifth Prince's voice from outside: "Your Highness, Grand Tutor Liu has arrived."
Grand Tutor Liu?
Liu Enze?
Ye Qing'an raised her eyebrows but didn't say anything. She simply stood up and walked towards the door.
"Grand Tutor Liu? What brings him here?" The Crown Prince paused slightly before pursing his lips and saying, "I am not feeling well, so I will not see you. Please rest well in the camp, Grand Tutor. Once I am feeling better, I will personally visit you."
Ye Qing'an's eyes flickered. Judging from the Crown Prince's tone and the meaning behind his words, he seemed to dislike Liu Enze very much.
But since Liu Enze is the Grand Tutor, shouldn't he be the Crown Prince's teacher?
but……
After a moment's thought, Ye Qing'an realized that Liu Enze was indeed the Grand Tutor. However, the Crown Prince had been bewitched by Ye Zirui's illusion, and the Ye family did not particularly like Liu Enze. It was likely that the Crown Prince had also been influenced by Ye Zirui.
Ye Qing'an had already left the tent. As soon as he stepped out, he saw soldiers leading Liu Enze over from a distance.
The Fifth Prince had already gone to greet him, and Ye Qing'an also walked over with a smile: "Grand Tutor Liu."
"We parted in haste outside Wangjing last time, and I thought it would be several months before we met again. I didn't expect to see you so soon."
The Fifth Prince seemed somewhat surprised: "Does Miss Ye know Grand Tutor Liu?"
Liu Enze smiled, his expression open and honest, his eyes filled with a hint of nostalgia: "I know her mother. I met Miss Ye by chance in Wangjing City a few months ago. She looks exactly like her mother, and I recognized her at a glance."
"I met her again in the outskirts of Wangjing City. At that time, I had just been sent by the Emperor to Qian'an. Miss Ye happened to be going out of the city to find her father in the Monster Forest. We stayed at the same inn, but I didn't know that until the next morning."
Ye Qing'an smiled and nodded.
"I heard that Miss Ye has become a Supreme by chance, and that Prime Minister Ye has also returned safely. I had been thinking that I should congratulate Miss Ye in person, and now I finally have the opportunity to do so. Congratulations, Miss Ye."
Ye Qing'an smiled broadly: "Thank you, sir."
Liu Enze still smiled at Ye Qing'an: "Becoming a Supreme Being is certainly a good thing, but it will also put you in the spotlight. Countless people in the world will flock to you, but those people all have their own ambitions and purposes."
"Some want to recruit you for their own purposes, some want to use you to achieve their own goals, and some feel that your existence is blocking their way and want to get rid of you."
"You will definitely encounter all sorts of people around you, and you need to be careful to distinguish them and protect yourself."
Liu Enze spoke very sincerely, and Ye Qing'an nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you for your guidance, sir. I will remember it."
The Fifth Prince stood to the side, listening to the conversation between Liu Enze and Ye Qing'an, his gaze shifting back and forth between the two, seemingly lost in thought.
Seeing that the Fifth Prince remained silent, Ye Qing'an asked again, "I heard that Grand Tutor Liu went to Qian'an to investigate the situation. Did the Grand Tutor come here because something went wrong at the front?"
Liu Enze shook his head, then nodded: "There hasn't been any major chaos at the front, but the rebels' instigation is chaos in itself. And I think the rebels' recent actions are rather strange..."
strange?
Ye Qing'an's heart skipped a beat. She merely raised an eyebrow, looking puzzled. "Strange?"
Liu Enze opened his mouth, then glanced at the Fifth Prince beside him before gently shaking his head: "Perhaps I'm overthinking it. I need to discuss this matter with His Highness the Crown Prince to see how it should be handled."
“But…” Liu Enze’s gaze fell on the camp not far away, his eyes deep: “Since His Highness the Crown Prince is unwell, let’s wait for now.”
Ye Qing'an noticed that the Fifth Prince had raised his eyes, as if he had something to say but had swallowed it back. Knowing that he was mindful of her presence, Ye Qing'an smiled and said, "Mr. Liu and the Fifth Prince still have things to discuss, so I will take my leave now."
Ye Qing'an went straight back to his tent and summoned Jiu Xiao: "Go and listen to what Liu Enze and the Fifth Prince are saying."
Jiuxiao disappeared quickly, and Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes.
What Liu Enze just said about the rebels' recent strange behavior? What exactly is going on?
Could it be that Liu Enze has already discovered it?
Did they discover that Yi Moxu was not among the rebels?
