After the arranged marriage, I pampered the sickly regent.

"You mean Granny Chang's death is related to Ye Qingwu?"

Zhan Siwan opened her eyes wide and asked in shock, while Ye Qingzhu lowered her head, showing a frightened expression.

"I...I'm not sure either."

"It's just that since the Regent fell into a coma, everyone in the mansion has been following the Princess's orders. It's really strange that this happened so suddenly and was suppressed so quickly."

“What’s so strange about it? This Ye Qingwu is truly hateful. The Empress Dowager sent Granny Chang back to the Prince’s Mansion with her to assist her, but she killed her because of her own selfish desires.”

"Let's use such a cruel method as arson!"

Zhan Siwan clenched her fists and looked at the emperor indignantly. "Father, if such treacherous and cunning people are not severely punished, it will be difficult to win over the people."

The emperor was equally shocked upon hearing Ye Qingzhu's words and ordered his guards, "Go and summon the Regent's Consort."

"Yes."

In the courtyard.

Ye Qingwu returned to the room and looked at Zhan Sijing on the bed. Her tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed. After this period of treatment and after the fever subsided yesterday, Zhan Sijing's condition had completely recovered, and even his pale face had regained its color.

This also means that Zhan Sijing will soon wake up from his coma, which is wonderful!

Most importantly, after this incident, the Cold Shadow Poison in Zhan Sijing's body has been reduced by more than half, and the remaining part can be completely eliminated by acupuncture every once in a while.

She really wished Zhan Sijing would open his eyes right now so she could tell him this good news.

Just then, footsteps came from outside. Through the window, Ye Qingwu saw Leng Feng standing outside the courtyard, talking to several guards.

Aren't those two guards the gatekeepers? What are they doing here? Could something have happened?

Realizing this, Ye Qingwu immediately went out of the house, and the others, hearing the commotion, all looked in her direction.

Leng Feng stepped forward first. Ye Qingwu glanced at the two guards and asked, "Leng Feng, what happened?"

"Your Highness, the two guards just now said that the Emperor has arrived and requests that you go there now. It seems that he has come to inquire about the Prince's condition."

"You stay here and guard the post; I'll go and report back."

After giving a few instructions, Ye Qingwu left with the guards who were waiting there.

"Besides the Emperor, who else has come to the residence this time?"

On the way, Ye Qingwu looked at the two people ahead and asked them a question.

"In response to Your Highness, besides the Emperor, there is also the Sixth Princess, Duke Ye, Second Young Master Ye, and several accompanying imperial physicians."

Ye Qingwu nodded slightly, and as she spoke, she saw a group of people walking towards her.

"Ye Qingwu, how dare you! You even dare to harm someone close to the Empress Dowager!"

When Zhan Siwan, who followed, saw Ye Qingwu, she was filled with anger.

"What does the Sixth Princess mean by that?"

"Ye Qingwu, you still dare to play dumb even now? Ye Qingzhu has already told me about the fire that you set on Granny Chang!"

"Father, arrest Ye Qingwu now to prevent her from harming others and causing a great disaster."

Ye Qingzhu, who was following behind these people and was ready to watch the show, turned pale when she heard Zhan Siwan's words. Even if the Sixth Princess wanted to cause trouble for Ye Qingwu, she wouldn't have revealed all of her secrets.

Now, won't what she said be exposed?

Standing next to Ye Qingzhu, Ye Yuanfeng saw that his younger sister's face was pale and assumed that she was frightened by Ye Qingwu.

"Qingzhu, don't be afraid. We couldn't enter the manor before because of the Emperor's orders, which is why you were bullied by Ye Qingwu in the Regent's Mansion. Now that my father, the Emperor, and I are here, we will definitely avenge you for all the grievances you suffered!"

Ye Yuanfeng's words of comfort only annoyed Ye Qingzhu.

"Second brother, stop talking." Ye Qingzhu impatiently interrupted Ye Yuanfeng. When she looked in Ye Qingwu's direction, she met Ye Qingwu's gaze, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Ye Qingzhu, did you tell the Emperor and the Sixth Princess that I was the one who hurt Granny Chang?"

Faced with Ye Qingwu's question, Ye Qingzhu panicked instantly and hurriedly explained, "Sister, I am..."

Ye Yuanfeng stepped forward first and rebuked Ye Qingwu, "Your Highness, do you still intend to use your insidious methods against Qingzhu in front of the Emperor?"

Although Ye Xuan did not speak, he also looked at Ye Qingwu with angry eyes.

He stepped forward and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, although the princess is of a different status, she still comes from a marquis's family. It is my fault for failing to properly educate her, which led her to behave in this way."

Zhan Siwan scoffed, "Duke Ye, since Ye Qingwu is already married, how can you be considered guilty? Some people are born bad, and no amount of teaching will help!"

Ye Qingwu looked at these people, a cold glint flashing in her eyes. From the moment she appeared until now, the Emperor had not stopped either Ye Qingzhu or Zhan Siwan from speaking.

Since that's the case, then she won't hold back when it comes to Zhan Siwan.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingwu asked Zhan Siwan, "Sixth Princess, you're saying I killed Granny Chang without any evidence. Isn't that a bit absurd?"

"Besides, I'm not the only one in this mansion. There are also guards and people from Commander Wang's office. They came out of the palace with Granny Chang."

"you!"

Zhan Siwan was surprised that Ye Qingwu dared to question her. Ye Yuanfeng and the Duke of Ye, one was Ye Qingwu's second brother and the other was her father. They had both stood up to criticize Ye Qingwu. Could this matter be false?

Just as Zhan Siwan was about to get angry, the emperor, who had been silent all along, spoke up.

"Ye Qingwu, do you still remember the promise you made to me?"

The emperor's gaze fell on Ye Qingwu. Compared to the safety of a mere nanny, he was more concerned about Zhan Sijing's condition.

"remember."

Ye Qingwu replied, "I came here to report back after hearing that the Emperor had come."

"what about now?"

"Has the curse upon the Regent been lifted yet...?"

"Your Majesty, the prince's curse has been broken, but he is still in a coma."

"As for when he will wake up, it is still unknown."

When Ye Qingwu said that the curse had been broken, no one present was surprised, but Ye Qingzhu was the most shocked.

"Sister, now that the Prince's curse is gone, shouldn't he be awake? Why is he still unconscious?" Perhaps because Ye Xuan and Ye Yuanfeng were there, Ye Qingzhu felt much more confident.

These words immediately reminded Zhan Siwan, who questioned Ye Qingwu, "That's right! Ye Qingwu, I think you deliberately mentioned the curse breakage in order to escape being held accountable by the Emperor."

"As long as the Imperial Uncle remains unconscious, this matter cannot be considered closed!"
