"She is my daughter."

"How do you know who this king is?"

Ye Qingyu's expression remained calm, "Your humble servant greets Commander Jiang."

Jiang Bei, the commander of the guards at Prince Chu's palace, was stunned when he heard her words.

There was silence in the car for a moment, "Well, Jiangbei, take care of it."

"Yes."

Ye Qingyu hurriedly said, "Your Highness, just arrest these people and hand them over to the authorities."

"can."

The robbers were cursing and chasing after them quickly, when suddenly, they saw a team of regular guards wearing armor and holding sharp blades rushing out from the stopped carriage. They suddenly braked.

Ye Qingyu looked at them with cold eyes as if they were dead.

These robbers are not stupid and they understand that they have provoked a tough guy.

"Damn, this is a tough idea, run!"

"Damn it, this business is really a loss, run!"

Several robbers ran away like the wind.

But no matter how fast they ran, they could never outrun the four-legged horses and were soon caught up. Commander Jiang and his subordinates captured them all in just a few moves.

In order to survive, the robbers confessed before Ye Qingyu could say anything.

"Ms. Ye, we are just hired for money. We won't really do anything to you."

"Please be magnanimous and let us go. We will tell you everything we know."

Ye Qingyu sneered contemptuously, "You don't have to be afraid, and you don't have to explain anything. When you get to the government office, someone will interrogate you."

After saying that, Ye Qingyu turned around and walked to the side of the King of Chu's carriage, thanking His Highness, "Thank you for your rescue."

No sound was heard from the carriage.

Because there was no one to drive her carriage, the King of Chu sent someone to have their carriage follow behind. In this way, Ye Qingyu was escorted by the King of Chu all the way back to Kyoto.

In front of the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, as soon as he got off the carriage, he saw a maid walking quickly towards him.

"Miss, you are finally back. I was so worried."

Ye Qingyu looked slightly dazed, as if something was unreal.

The two maids around her, Nianchun and Wanqiu, were chosen for her by her mother when she was alive. They have been with her since she was five years old.

But because of her, none of them had a happy ending...

"Wanqiu. I'm fine, don't worry."

"Seeing you are well, I am relieved. You don't know, I was really scared when I saw that the old lady and the others had returned but you were not there."

"Seeing you return safely, I can finally put my mind at ease."

Back at Wanyan Pavilion, Wanqiu helped her change her clothes and made tea for her.

"By the way, where is Nianchun?"

It was only at this time that Wanqiu realized that Nianchun was missing.

"I told her to do something."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard hurried footsteps outside the door, and saw Nanny Chen beside the old lady walk in.

"Miss, the old lady invites you to Chunhui Hall."

Ye Qingyu took a sip of tea and put down the teacup.

"Madam Chen, do you know why the old lady called me?"

Nanny Chen's wrinkled face was serious, but upon closer inspection, she showed a hint of disdain. "I don't know what this is. Miss, please go with me quickly."

Ye Qingyu stared at Nanny Chen dimly, curled the corners of her lips, and stood up.

Nanny Chen felt her scalp tingle when Ye Qingyu looked at her, and the disrespectful expression on her face subsided a little.

When Ye Qingyu arrived, Chunhui Hall was already packed. As she approached, she heard laughter coming from inside.

Seeing Ye Qingyu strolling in, everyone's eyes were focused on her.

The old lady, Ye Qingyu's grandmother, had a glint in her eyes, but a kind smile on her face, and her eyes were full of love when she looked at Ye Qingyu.

"Qingyu is here. I heard that the carriage you were riding in had some problems. Are you okay?"

"You kid, if your carriage breaks down, you should come to Second Aunt's carriage. Fortunately, it came back safe and sound."

Second Aunt Wu walked up to her with a worried look on her face, looked her up and down, and was relieved when she saw that there was no reason for her to be injured.

"What could happen to her? She's fine." Cousin Ye Qingya, standing beside her, had worry in her eyes and spoke in an awkward tone.

"You little girl, how can you talk like that? It's ok that you don't care about your elder sister when she's in trouble, but why are you saying such sarcastic things?" Mrs. Wu frowned and scolded seriously.

"I'm not wrong." Ye Qingya muttered somewhat unhappily.

Ye Qingyu smiled warmly, "Second sister is right. I'm fine. It just took me some time to get home."

Ye Qingya is the legitimate daughter of her second uncle. She is a little spoiled and is loved by her second uncle, aunt and eldest cousin, so she is naturally naive and straightforward.

They were the only two girls in the Marquis's mansion, and they were of similar age, and had been close friends since childhood.

However, since her mother's death, Ye Qingyu fell in love with the Fourth Prince, and their relationship gradually became distant. Ye Qingya was straightforward and persuaded her that the Fourth Prince was not a good man. At that time, Ye Qingyu was immersed in her admiration for Shen Mingxiu and was very angry about her words. The two had a fierce quarrel, and since then, their relationship was like strangers. After she got married, they never saw each other again.

Seeing Ye Qingya clearly caring about her but still being stubborn, she felt soft in her heart, "Ya'er has always been straightforward, Second Aunt, please don't say anything about her."

Third Aunt Zhou, who was sitting on the right, was wearing a light green dress. A hint of disappointment seemed to flash across her pretty face. "I'm glad you're okay."

"It's Qingyu's fault for making the elders worry." Ye Qingyu responded with a smile.

"I'm glad you're okay. Your father is also very worried. He will come to see you later."

Just as he finished speaking, footsteps were heard outside. The servant stepped aside and saluted respectfully, "Greetings, Lord Marquis."

The old lady looked towards the door with a smile on her face, "Look, if you mention the devil, he'll appear."

The door curtain was lifted by a servant and the man strode in.

The man was wearing a green brocade robe with straight stitching and had a handsome and gentle face.

"Mother."

"The boss is here, please sit down. Who is this young man?" The old lady asked with a smile, her eyes burning.

Behind Lord Ye stood a young man in a dark blue brocade robe. He had a slender figure, a handsome face and a scholarly air.

"My nephew Ye Shuwen greets the old lady. I greet all the aunts."

The Marquis explained, "Mother, Shuwen is a distant relative of our family. He recently came to Kyoto to take part in the imperial examination."

The old lady looked at Ye Shuwen with a loving face, her eyes sparkling with light. "Oh, he is already a juren at such a young age. He is truly talented. My Ye family is blessed."

Ye Qingyu looked at the person in front of her and tried hard to suppress the hatred surging in her heart.

In her previous life, because of her stupidity, this man became her stepbrother. He always blamed and scolded her, but was very caring towards her stepsister Ye Qianqian. She always thought that she did not do well enough, so her brother favored others.

It turns out they are siblings!
