Chapter 301 Ask her?
Liu Xueying took a deep breath, feeling somewhat irritated: "Why can't she learn her lesson? I've told her so many times that her marriage to the Fifth Prince is imminent, and she should focus on preparing for the wedding and not get involved in any messy things, and especially not to easily go against Ye Qing'an."
"Ye Qing'an has been back in the manor for two or three months now. Can't she see that Ye Qing'an is no longer the Ye Qing'an we used to know? Without careful planning, there's no way to deal with her."
“I kept telling her, leave this to me, leave it to me, I'll figure out a way. Why won't she trust me?”
Seeing Liu Xueying's chest heaving with anger, the maidservant quickly whispered, "Madam, please don't worry too much. Although the Second Miss and Miss Li have met twice, I think it was just a meeting. Miss Li couldn't have only met with the Second Miss during this time, and I don't think anyone would easily connect these two things together, right?"
The maid's eyes darted around: "Besides, it's not even certain whether this matter will lead to Miss Li, let alone the Second Miss."
Liu Xueying pursed her lips tightly: "I hope so."
Liu Xueying gripped the handkerchief tightly in her hand: "If Wei Lan plotted to frame Ye Qing'an, it can only be considered a conflict between the two sisters. Regardless of who is right or wrong, it can be dealt with behind closed doors. At worst, the master will get angry and punish them."
“But if this matter involves other prominent families outside, or even almost implicates the master and the Ye family, then things will be completely different.”
The maid lowered her voice: "Madam, would you like to go to the Second Miss's place and ask her what exactly happened?"
"Ask her?" Liu Xueying scoffed. "Come on, because of what happened before, she almost considers me her mortal enemy now. Why would I ask her? I'm afraid if I ask, she'll think I'm doubting her or questioning her. Even if what happened is true, she would never tell me the truth."
Liu Xueying pursed her lips: "There's no need to pay attention to her. Just as you said, the matter hasn't even reached her yet, and we're already panicking. What kind of talk is that?"
Liu Xueying lowered her voice and instructed, "Have someone guard the palace gate and see what's going on inside. After all, if the Emperor wants to interrogate us, there will probably be results soon. It's getting late, and although there's no curfew today, the Master should be leaving the palace soon."
"Send one of the servants who has a slightly better relationship with the steward or one of the servants who serves the master in the palace, and wait for the master to come out so that he can find out what's going on."
As Liu Xueying spoke, she took out a money pouch from her sleeve and tossed it to the maid: "Take this out and let the person in charge take it to do their job."
"Yes."
As soon as the maid left, Granny Li rushed in: "Madam, Physician Xu has brought the young lady's bastard child back to the manor."
Liu Xueying took a sip of tea and narrowed her eyes slightly: "So long? Ye Qing'an has already entered the palace, and that physician surnamed Xu has only returned to the manor after so long?"
"Yes, I heard that after the young lady left, Doctor Xu took that little bastard child for a stroll in the street for quite a while."
"Heh..." Liu Xueying scoffed, "A medical cultivator with little knowledge probably thinks this is no big deal, right?"
Liu Xueying sneered, but then she recalled the scene at the family banquet when the healer took off his mask, and remembered the face of Healer Xu...
Liu Xueying pulled the handkerchief from her other hand: "That little slut, she's got quite the luck with women."
"It's a pity, it'll probably only last one night. After all... the master will definitely investigate that little slut for this matter. The bigger the impact of this matter, the harder her life will be in the future. At that time, she probably won't have the heart to fool around in bed with someone."
Liu Xueying pursed her lips. That healer surnamed Xu—few people could resist his looks. What a pity…
……
Yi Moxu and Eleven had already returned to the courtyard where Ye Qing'an was. Wei Mama and Zixiao were still unaware of what had happened outside. Upon seeing Wei Mama and Zixiao, and not seeing Ye Qing'an and Ye Feiran, they were both somewhat surprised: "So it was just Doctor Xu and Young Master Eleven who returned? Where is... where is Miss?"
Yi Moxu held Eleven in his arms and shook his head indifferently: "Something happened, and Qing'an and the Second Young Master have both entered the palace."
"Huh?" Granny Wei and Zixiao looked at each other in bewilderment. How could going out to see the lanterns lead them to the palace?
Yi Moxu was too lazy to explain anything to them, and simply said, "I'll explain this to you in detail when your young lady comes back. Don't believe any of those messy rumors outside."
Wei Mama and Zixiao were even more confused, but Zixiao reacted quickly and said, "Then let me take the young master downstairs to wash up. He's been playing all night and must be sweaty. I'll have someone prepare hot water for the young master to bathe in."
Yi Moxu did not hand Eleven over to Zixiao, but only glanced at Zixiao indifferently: "I will sleep with Eleven tonight. When Qing'an comes back, you can have someone prepare hot water, and I will accompany Eleven to take a bath."
"Yes," Zixiao quickly replied.
After a while of not hearing any movement from Yi Moxu, Zixiao quietly raised her head and saw that Yi Moxu had already left.
Zixiao and Granny Wei exchanged bewildered glances: "What exactly happened to Miss?"
Granny Wei frowned: "How about I send someone out to inquire?"
"Let's forget it." Zi Xiao also hesitated. "Didn't Doctor Xu just tell us not to believe any of those messy rumors outside?"
"The reason Doctor Xu gave such instructions is most likely because the rumors circulating outside are far from the truth, and he doesn't want us to be misled. Besides, I don't think Doctor Xu is an easy person to talk to..."
"What if we go and find out, only to be filled with anxiety and uncertainty because of the rumors circulating outside, and no one can tell us the truth? Wouldn't that be even more frustrating?"
Granny Wei also pondered for a moment: "Alright, since Doctor Xu said he's waiting for the young lady, she should be back soon, right? Let's wait for her too. Once she's back, we'll know what happened."
Zixiao responded and quickly said, "I'll go and ask someone to prepare hot water."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
In the side room, Eleven held Yi Moxu's hand, her heart filled with worry: "Will Mother really be alright?"
"Yes, don't worry." Yi Moxu sat down next to Eleven. "Your mother is very clever, and besides, she has an illusion realm. If anything really happens, she can just hide in the illusion realm..."
Upon hearing Yi Moxu's words, Eleven's eyes widened immediately, and she turned her head sharply to stare at Yi Moxu: "Uncle Xu, you also know about Mother's Dreamland of Clouds?"
