The mistress of a marquis's family divorced her husband and married someone else: the scumbag
Chapter 123 Did you do it on purpose?
"Thank you, Madam, for your trust."
Li Er was stunned after hearing this. In his opinion, the beauty serum was extraordinary and just one bottle could cause quite a stir. However, Ye Qingluo was willing to give all of this to him, and his heart was filled with gratitude.
"By the way, has a man dressed as a guard been sent here in the past few days?" Ye Qingluo asked.
"Yes, the person sent here claimed to be related to you, Madam. I saw that the person was seriously injured and was worried about causing unnecessary trouble, so I placed him in the backyard."
"Ma'am, I'll take you there right away."
"No need, you are busy with your work, I can go see him myself."
If the guards are really related to the military camp, some things are better known by as few people as possible.
Arriving at the backyard, Ye Qingluo went to where the guards were placed according to what Li Er said. As soon as he got there, he heard some noise coming from inside.
Then the tightly closed door was opened from the inside, and a man with a bandage on his left hand walked out.
Judging from the injuries, it is obvious that the other party had intended to kill him.
When the man saw someone appear, his body stiffened suddenly. When he saw the other person's face clearly, he was confused for a moment.
"Madam? Why...are you here?"
"And I……"
The man stroked his forehead with his right hand, looking like he had a splitting headache.
Ye Qingluo glanced at the stone chair over there and said to the man calmly, "You have just recovered from your injury and need to rest well. Sit down first."
The man still stood there, obviously not knowing whether he should believe the woman in front of him.
Seeing this, Ye Qingluo continued, "Don't worry, this is Huichuntang, no one will assassinate you."
"Madam, do you know who wants to attack me?"
The man immediately became alert when he heard this. He didn't understand how he could be killed when he was just an ordinary guard.
"You said before that you had served in the military camp, right?"
The man nodded, "Yes, but I have been transferred away from the guards recently. Could those who attacked me have something to do with this?"
Ye Qingluo did not rush to answer the man's question, but continued to ask, "Have you ever heard of a soldier named Jiang Yuan?"
Since Ye Yuanshan made it difficult for me to find Jiang Yuan before leaving, this person must be extraordinary.
"I know him, but Captain Jiang disappeared when he followed Marquis Pingyuan on a mission some time ago. I've always found this strange."
"With Pingyuan Hou..." Ye Qingluo paused, and then asked the man, "Do you suspect that this matter is related to the Marquis?"
The man shuddered and hurriedly explained to the woman in front of him, "Madam, I'm not doubting the Marquis, but this incident is too strange. When the Marquis came back that day, he only said that he was not with Deputy Captain Jiang at the time, but I clearly remember that they left together."
"I originally wanted to raise this matter with the Marquis, but he angrily rebuked me and then I was transferred out of the barracks."
Ye Qingluo roughly understood the whole story after hearing this, "That's why you took advantage of the wedding banquet to sneak into the patrolling guards that day, but you didn't want to be recognized by the Marquis?"
The man opened his eyes wide, looking stunned, "Madam, are you saying that the one who hired someone to attack me was the Marquis?"
"Do you think there is a second possibility?"
The man seemed to be deflated and hung his head.
"Madam, are you here to help the Marquis get rid of me?"
After a long time, the man slowly opened his mouth, with a hint of despair in his eyes as he spoke.
"Didn't I just say that if I wanted to get rid of you, why would I save you?"
"To be honest, I've also been looking for this Commander Jiang, but there's been no news."
"Ma'am, what can I do?"
After hearing what Ye Qingluo said, the man rekindled his hope. It would be great if someone was willing to help at this time.
"Just take good care of yourself, and leave the capital after you've recovered. When those people find out you're missing, they'll definitely send people to search for you, which will be detrimental to your safety." Ye Qingluo replied. She could see that this man didn't know much, and even if she continued asking, she wouldn't get any useful information.
"But Deputy Captain Jiang..."
The man was obviously still a little unwilling and said these words hesitantly.
"I will send someone to investigate until I find the person."
"Thank you, ma'am." The man nodded, knowing that he could not do anything with his own strength.
Ye Qingluo hummed lightly and walked out. When he returned to the room, he saw a figure waiting there.
"It's you."
Seeing Ye Beimo appear, Ye Qingluo's eyes were filled with surprise, "Your Highness, how come you have time to come here today?"
And it always happens by chance...
"Mrs. Ye doesn't seem to welcome me."
Ye Beimo sighed softly, and a hint of regret appeared on his handsome face.
"It's really sad..."
Ye Qingluo was helpless. This prince was so aloof in front of outsiders, but he was so different when he was in front of her.
"Tell me, what happened? Or is there something wrong with your body again?" Ye Qingluo looked at Ye Beimo. The man looked good today, so he should be fine.
Ye Beimo stretched out his wrist in front of her, his beautiful eyes reflecting her figure, his voice deep and pleasant.
"Why don't you take a look at it, Madam Ye?"
Ye Qingluo: “…”
Why did she feel like this person was deliberately waiting for her to ask this question?
Even so, Ye Qingluo still took his pulse. It seemed that Ye Beimo had indeed taken good care of himself in the past few days as he had said.
As she was thinking about it, she looked up and met a pair of teasing eyes, and then she reacted.
Is this guy teasing me on purpose?
"Your Highness, complaining without any reason is not a good thing. If you feel that the dosage of the prescription is not enough, I can give you a few more herbs."
Ye Qingluo took a few steps back until he kept some distance from Ye Beimo and said in a cold voice.
"I have come here today to tell you something."
"On the one hand, General Ye has returned to the border safely, and on the other hand, there is Jiang Yuan."
"I think you learned about Jiang Yuan's disappearance from the guard."
Hearing that his father was safe, Ye Qingluo felt relieved. However, he was puzzled by the second half of his sentence, "Isn't this related to Chu Beiyu?"
"He is just a marquis, he doesn't have that much ability."
When Ye Beimo mentioned Chu Beiyu, his tone was more disdainful, "There is another group of forces hiding behind him."
"And that beauty serum... the fragrance powder added to it, are you really going to do this?"
Ye Beimo had a solemn expression as he looked towards Ye Qingluo. Because of that man, he had sent people to keep an eye on Huichuntang's movements and this so-called beauty serum.
"Ah."
Ye Qingluo's answer made Ye Beimo worried and he moved closer to her.
"Ye Qingluo, do you know how dangerous it would be if those people knew that you knew the effect of Ningxiang Powder?"
