Chapter 509 He also has weaknesses

Yong'an Palace experienced another sleepless night.

For Empress Dowager Li, since the second day of the twelfth lunar month, sleepless nights have come one after another, almost without interruption.

This sleeplessness was brought about by Ye Wenyan, by the Regent Quan Ji, by Lord Emperor Zun, and now by her other son Quan Qingyin, who was raised by Quan Ji since childhood.

When the Sixth Prince entered the palace, it was already dark and the palace gates were locked. But he said that it was related to the eldest princess's case and he had to see the emperor for urgent matters.

When the imperial guards heard that it was the eldest princess's business, they immediately let him go. However, they didn't know that Quan Qingyin entered the palace from Deyang Gate and did not go to the Shenxian Palace to see the emperor, but went directly to Yong'an Palace.

When Empress Dowager Li saw him, she was worried about the marriage proposal from Yanhua Palace to the General's Mansion. In the past, this matter was not put on the surface, so she could still pretend and still had a glimmer of luck, thinking that the Emperor just thought Ye Wenyan was interesting and fun, and he would fade away after a while.

But now that the imperial decree has been issued, the engagement has been made, and the matter has been announced to the world, Ye Wenyan has become the future empress known to everyone. Then, when she sees Ye Wenyan again in the future, she will have to bow to him, and her status will instantly be lowered by several levels.

Quan Qingyin’s arrival made her even more upset!

This son was not raised by her since he was a child, and he was not close to her, so she could not like him. Now her mind was full of where her Lu'er had gone, and she didn't want to care about her son's life or death at all.

But this son came to settle accounts with her. When the bloody whip was taken out from her sleeve, Li Xiaohan screamed subconsciously and pointed at Quan Qingyin and said, "Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

Quan Qingyin laughed, "You are not afraid, so why should I be afraid? If God could really kill someone with thunder, he should have killed you and Quan Ji twenty years ago. How could we be born? It shows that God has no eyes. He can't see these filth and filth in the world, and naturally he can't see me whipping my mother. But don't worry, I won't beat you. I brought this whip just to let you see it. See the blood and flesh on it, right? This is the flesh and blood of Ye Hongzhuang's family, and that of Old Madam Ye. Those who conspired with you, and those who discussed with you to replace the bride, none of them escaped."

He approached Li Xiaohan step by step. The maid Congwen tried to stop him, but he pushed her away.

"But just beating up the Ye family is not enough to vent my anger. What I really hate is not them, but the one who pointed at Quan Qinglu and told Yan'er that he was a benefactor. Mother, can you tell me who that person is?"

Li Xiaohan suddenly became excited, not because Quan Qingyin questioned her, but because she heard her Lu'er's name from Quan Qingyin. She rushed forward, grabbed Quan Qingyin's collar, and asked him loudly: "Where is Lu'er? Where did you take Lu'er? You two are devils, you even didn't let go of your own son and brother, you give my Lu'er back to me!"

Congwen was frightened and quickly reminded loudly: "What are you talking about, Your Majesty? Are you confused by the Sixth Prince? Sixth Prince, you can't provoke the Queen anymore. The Queen has been sleeping restlessly these days and has been talking nonsense. Please don't make her angry anymore." While speaking, Congwen hurried to check whether the palace door was closed properly. She wanted to stand outside to guard the door, but she was afraid that the Sixth Prince would lose control and kill the Queen. That would be terrible.

Congwen didn't dare to go out, so she could only stay with Li Xiaohan. Li Xiaohan didn't care about her reminder at all, and kept asking about Quan Qinglu's whereabouts. Quan Qingyin's eyes were filled with more and more despair, and she suddenly realized that this was also her son.

But what can she do? It is impossible to treat them equally. After all, the one she is thinking about is the one who has been with her since childhood. As for the one who follows Quan Ji, she doesn't care whether he lives or dies.

Quan Qingyin seemed to see through Li Xiaohan. He didn't feel aggrieved or sad. He just found it funny.

"A woman in the deep palace, you did such a bold and heinous thing, and you still hope to conceal it for the rest of your life? I tell you, I have never thought about the throne. I don't care who is the master of the world. What I am fighting for is just an identity to live in the sun; what I want is the possibility of living with my beloved girl for the rest of my life. I was about to succeed, but you shattered it all with your own hands. Li Xiaohan, did you do this on purpose? In your heart, there has always been only the son you raised by your side, right? But we look exactly the same, why did you choose me to send away?"

He held the whip in his hand and had to control it very hard to avoid hitting Li Xiaohan. He had longed for this mother, had called her mother in his dreams, and had imagined countless times that she could stroke his head and say, "Yin'er is so good."

Unfortunately, everything turned out to be just wishful thinking in the end. Not only did he not receive his mother's love, but his mother also shattered his most beautiful dream with her own hands.

How can he be willing to do so?

"Just wait!" He stepped back a few steps, pointed at Li Xiaohan and said, "One day you will get retribution, and Quan Ji will get retribution too! And I will never shamelessly continue to live with the surname Quan. What you owe to others must be repaid. You and Quan Ji's uncle and sister-in-law had an affair and occupied the position of queen for so many years. Now one of you is the regent and the other is the queen mother. This is all a sin. You are trying to take over this world and trying to kick the real prince off the throne to fulfill your ambitions. Why?"

An evil smile appeared on his face. "My dear mother, do you want to see your other son? I tell you, forget it! You have harmed me and closed the only ray of light in my life. How can I make you happy? Ever since you pointed at Quan Qinglu and told Yan'er that he was her savior, I have begun to hate you.

Listen, good and evil will be rewarded, and what is borrowed must be returned. You will never see him again in your lifetime; you will never escape the punishment of fate in your lifetime. Don't be afraid, I will always be with you and watch you, and when the day of reckoning comes, I will go to hell with you! Dear mother, this man has finally started to make me sick!"

Li Xiaohan didn't know what mood she was in when she watched Quan Qingyin leave. Anyway, she didn't sleep that night. When she closed her eyes, she saw Quan Qingyin standing in front of her with a whip in his hand, looking ferocious. When she opened her eyes, she saw her Lu'er covered in blood, calling for his mother.

She was almost going crazy and had no idea how to survive. She even wanted to bang her head against a pillar at one point.

Congwen reminded her, "Madam, this young master is not without any weaknesses. He likes Ye Wenyan and has liked her since he was a child. Just for this reason, you can control him completely."

Li Xiaohan was stunned. His mind was so confused that he could not think straight. He could only ask Congwen: "How do we handle this?"

Cong Wen lowered his voice and said, "Miss Ye Si probably didn't know there were two Sixth Princes, so she was sad, and after being sad, she changed her mind and fell in love with Lord Emperor. But if she knew that there was someone else who had taken care of her and loved her since she was a child, and that person didn't marry Ye Hongzhuang and still thought about her wholeheartedly, your Majesty, do you think she would change her mind?"

Li Xiaohan understood, "If Ye Wenyan changes his mind, it would be an insult to the emperor. The emperor will be furious and might even kill Ye Wenyan's family. That child is obsessed with Ye Wenyan, so he naturally can't bear to see Ye Wenyan being punished by the emperor. Ye Wenyan is his weakness. The reason why he came to Yong'an Palace with a whip and went crazy with me was because he was angry. He wanted Ye Wenyan to live, so he had to keep this a secret. Even though he was in so much pain, he didn't dare to take the person back, let alone tell the truth."

Congwen nodded, "Your Majesty is right, and that's what I mean. If that young master wants Fourth Miss Ye to live, he must swallow his anger, and then we can make a deal with him. Your Majesty, send him back to his original position! Let him release the Sixth Prince, and return the Su Palace and the title of Prince Su. If he doesn't return it, we will tell the matter to others, and at worst we will all die together. Even if he is not afraid of death, he has to consider Fourth Miss Ye."

Li Xiaohan breathed a sigh of relief. She thought this was feasible and even wanted to ask Congwen to leave the palace immediately to pass on the message.

But it’s too late now, we can’t do this openly, let’s talk about it tomorrow!

The betrothal gifts from Yanhua Palace were delivered until the hour of Chou. After reading the last box of betrothal gifts, Ye Wenyan woke up from a nap.

Mu wrapped her in a small quilt and tucked the corners of the quilt from time to time.

The onlookers heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that the betrothal gifts had finally been delivered. But before they could leave and go home to sleep, they heard Lian Shi say to Mu: "Madam, if nothing unexpected happens, the Emperor will come to visit tomorrow. Please make some preparations. Do you want to meet the Emperor at the First-Rank General's Mansion or at another house?"

Now the whole alley belongs to Ye Wenyan. She has become the real landlord of this area. She can sleep wherever she wants and even draw a lot if she wants.

But when he heard Lian Shi's question to Madam Mu, Ye Wenyan woke up with a start, and also scared Ye Chulian who was sitting next to him and was also very sleepy. Ye Chulian asked with squinting eyes: "What's wrong?" Then he heard Ye Wenyan say: "Of course we will meet at the First-rank General's Mansion! This general's mansion is named Ye, and it was passed down to us by our grandfather and father. We can't hide away when something happens and let outsiders show off their power in the mansion."

People didn't understand what this meant for a moment, and all of them pricked up their ears and stared with wide eyes, waiting to hear gossip. Some people even asked impatiently, "Who is the outsider? Has the First-Rank General's Mansion been occupied by someone?"
