Spring Courtyard Forbidden Pet

Because Ye Zhen was preparing to leave the Marquis' Mansion early in the morning, Rong Fei always had a carriage ready outside the side door.

Liuxia and Yulu also put all their valuables into the carriage and left without any delay.

However, at Li Chengge's command, the guards all chased after him. Ye Zhen walked very quickly, holding the silver needles very tightly between her fingers. The footsteps coming closer and closer from behind seemed like a mountain pressing down on her.

If I can't leave the Marquis' Mansion this time, I'm afraid there will never be a chance to do so again in the future.

Rong Fei stood behind her. Because he was holding two boxes, his breathing was a little heavy. Ye Zhen clenched her teeth and turned back to Rong Fei and said, "You can still make money later. Leave the boxes behind and go first."

Rong Fei's face was tense, his dark eyes were unusually firm, "Second Miss, please leave quickly. I will cover your retreat."

Ye Zhen was shocked. "Don't talk nonsense. He has at least 20 guards. How can you tell?"

Rong Fei smiled innocently, "The Second Miss was only eight years old when she came to the Ye Mansion. My younger sister and I were infected with a disease, and Madam wanted to beat us to death for fear that the eldest lady would be infected. It was the Second Miss who interceded for us and worked day and night to prepare a prescription for the treatment. Every extra day I have lived is given by the Second Miss."

"As long as you can leave the Marquis' Mansion, I can stop ten more of them."

Ye Zhen's eyes were slightly wet. In her previous life, when Prince Yu rebelled, Rong Fei died under the sword of the chaotic army to protect her. At that time, he also said so easily and bravely, "As long as you are fine, I can stop anything."

Ye Zhen's throat tightened, and she stared at him blankly, "No! It doesn't matter if I can't get out today. I have other ways. If you die, I will kill Li Chengge even if it costs me my own life."

Rong Fei's steps hurried and he subconsciously lowered his head. He couldn't believe what he heard, and he didn't dare to look her in the eye. He just couldn't help but tremble in his hands holding the box.

"If it really comes to that, I will have no way out."

"Since you said your life belongs to me, then you can't make your own decision without my permission."

Ye Zhen was afraid that he would not listen, so she reached out and grabbed Rong Fei's wrist tightly, worried that he would turn back if she was not careful.

Rong Fei only felt his wrist burning hot, the sturdy man blushed, and his legs became a little weak, "The slave knows."

He stared at the soft, white fingers in front of him, as if he couldn't speak anymore, "You..."

The guards had already caught up with them. Ye Zhen decisively pushed the box out of Rong Fei's hand, and the jewels fell all over the floor. The guards in the front row stood there in a daze. Their mind told them to give chase, but their instinct made them stare at the jewels at their feet.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Zhen pulled Rong Fei and ran a little further.

Li Chengge caught up quickly. His arms had regained some feeling and he realized that she had pricked his acupuncture points with silver needles, causing him to be temporarily unable to move.

But such a precise and ruthless move still shocked him.

"What are you all standing there for! If someone leaves the mansion, don't come back!"

He roared angrily, and the guards carefully stepped over the jewels under their feet and continued to chase.

The housekeeper heard the noise and ran over, anxious, "General, what happened? The Second Miss finally showed mercy and let Liuxia accompany me to invite Doctor Qin. Miss Liuxia begged for a long time, but Doctor Qin refused to come."

Li Chengge's eyes were shocked, and he suddenly grabbed the butler by the collar, "What did you say?"

Didn't she ask the maid to instigate Doctor Qin not to come to the Marquis's Mansion?

The housekeeper was so frightened that he stuttered, "I felt that the second young lady wanted to ease the relationship with the general, so I asked Miss Liuxia..."

Li Chengge didn't want to believe that he had misunderstood Ye Zhen again, and said, "Mrs. Lai said that she wanted to watch her mother die on purpose."

"General! It's true that doctors outside are unwilling to come to the Marquis' Mansion to see patients. If it weren't for the Second Miss's favor, I'm afraid Doctor Qin's clinic would not even be willing to sell me two doses of antipyretic medicine."

And fever-reducing medicine? Why didn't anyone tell him about it?

Li Chengge felt dizzy and pushed the housekeeper away to chase Ye Zhen.

Seeing Ye Zhen arrive at the bamboo forest, there was a side door on the west side. The main door was open, and Liuxia and Yulu were already waiting outside. Li Chengge saw that there was a carriage ready outside, and without thinking, he took the bow and arrow from the guard.

The feather arrow tore through the night sky, brushed past Liuxia's cheek, and with a "bang" pierced the wheel, causing the car body to tilt immediately.

Ye Zhen had already taken a step forward, and watched the horse jump wildly on the street in fear. Her body instantly turned cold, and no matter how tightly she clenched her fists, there was nothing she could do.

The pursuers stopped in front of the door and surrounded them. Li Chengge looked at her stiff back and said coldly, "Send Madam back home."

Ye Zhen's chest heaved, and in panic he asked himself, is there any other way?

In the silence, Li Chengge's footsteps were like drums beating on his heart, approaching again and again.

Rong Fei stood in front of Ye Zhen, and his expression of swearing to protect her to the death made Li Chengge very unhappy, but he was too disdainful to talk to the servants. He only said to Ye Zhen's back, "Come back, I promise not to hold you accountable for what happened in the past. From now on, you and I will start over and pretend that nothing happened."

But she was too lazy to even sneer.

"If you insist on doing this, then the two girls and the servant around you are the culprits who instigated you to leave the mansion. The mansion has its own rules. You have caused such a big incident, so someone has to take the blame for you."

These words were like stabbing a knife into Ye Zhen's heart. It wouldn't kill her, but it would torment her for the rest of her life.

Ye Zhen gritted her teeth and said, "Either you let me go, or leave my body behind. There's no need to say any more nonsense."

Li Chengge's anger was boiling in his chest, and it seemed like it was about to explode. Only now did he understand that his anger towards Ye Zhen from the beginning was because she had rashly escaped from his control.

The atmosphere was so cold that everyone found it unbearable.

Ye Zhen took a deep breath. There was a street outside the side door. If she made a lot of noise, it would alarm the neighbors. If she attracted the patrol battalion, she might be able to escape in the chaos.

She would never look back anyway.

Just as he was about to take action, a servant from the front yard came over breathlessly, "General, the palace has sent an order for you to enter the palace."

"Eunuch Cao is waiting outside."

Li Chengge had no choice but to say, "Watch her and don't let her step out of the mansion."

As soon as he left, not only Ye Zhen, but also the guards breathed a sigh of relief. However, the next second a sweet fragrance suddenly wafted through the air. When they realized something was wrong, the weapons in their hands fell to the ground and they fainted.

Ye Zhen was surprised. She turned around and saw Yun Zhui and two young Taoist priests dragging the guards away. Li Xuan'an was pale and walked over with difficulty, holding his chest.

Her eyes lit up, and her heart softened, "Second Master."

Li Xuan nodded, and just as he was about to speak, he covered his lips and coughed twice. His brows were tightly furrowed, and the teardrop moles at the corners of his eyes trembled, and he looked very uncomfortable.

Ye Zhen wanted to go forward and help him, but Yun Zhui had already stretched out his arm for Li Xuan to support, so she stepped back half a step.

Li Xuan tried his best to suppress the discomfort in his chest, and spoke weakly, "My carriage is ready outside."

"With a magic bell hanging on the corner of the car, no one will dare to stop it on the road."
