After the arranged marriage, I pampered the sickly regent.

“Father, I also think that what Young Master Ye said is right. Besides, shouldn’t we be happy that Uncle is sober now?”

"How about we talk about these things later?"

The emperor did not refuse Zhan Siwan's suggestion and looked at the imperial physicians he had brought, saying, "You few, examine the Regent."

Even though the curse on Zhan Sijing has been broken, his condition remains of utmost importance.

"As for the Regent's Consort, the decision regarding Ye Qingzhu is still in your hands. Anyone who objects will be punished along with her."

After what just happened, the emperor realized that Ye Xuan treated Ye Qingwu and Ye Qingzhu with completely different attitudes.

"Yes."

"Lord Ye, both are my flesh and blood, so sometimes I shouldn't be too biased."

The emperor's words sent a shiver down Ye Xuan's spine. How could he not understand that this was the emperor's advice to him?

At this moment, the imperial physician who had taken the emperor's pulse came over and said in the direction of the emperor, "Your Majesty, apart from being physically weak, His Highness the Regent is otherwise fine."

The emperor was relieved and looked at Ye Qingwu with admiration.

"I never imagined that the Princess's medical skills were so remarkable. From now on, the Princess will have to put in a lot of effort to take care of the Regent's health."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, with me here, I will ensure that the Prince does not encounter any mishaps."

"it is good!"

The emperor let out a hearty laugh, clearly extremely satisfied with Ye Qingwu's words.

Zhan Siwan stood aside, her gaze towards Ye Qingwu extremely complicated. She had always thought that the most amazing medical skills belonged to Sister Mu.

But now, the curse and illness that had been troubling the Imperial Uncle have actually been cured by Ye Qingwu, and the Imperial Uncle's treatment of Ye Qingwu is noticeably different.

If that's the case, what does Sister Muyan count for? No, she has to find out exactly what happened.

"Your Majesty, please come to the study to discuss this matter regarding the curse."

Zhan Sijing said to the emperor that although he had been in a coma for some time, he was not completely unconscious.

He could hear what Ye Qingwu was saying to him, and everything she did for him.

In that instant, even he himself was about to lose hope, but it was Ye Qingwu's presence that made him see the light again in the darkness.

From then on, she became his reason for living.

“I’m leaving for a while. I’ll leave the rest to Leng Feng. He’ll handle it. Don’t worry.”

Before going to the study, Zhan Sijing spoke softly to Ye Qingwu.

"it is good."

After the emperor and Zhan Sijing left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Ye Qingzhu was the most fortunate. As long as the emperor was not there, and with Ye Xuan and Ye Yuanfeng present, Ye Qingwu would surely restrain himself.

Most importantly, the sixth princess seemed to be speaking up for him, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Does this mean that Zhan Siwan also has some dissatisfaction with Ye Qingwu?

For her, these were all good things.

"Sister Qingzhu, let's go back first."

Ye Yuanfeng watched the Emperor and the Regent leave, not daring to linger, and reminded Ye Qingzhu.

"Ah."

Just as Ye Qingzhu was about to leave, she heard a questioning voice behind her, "Leave?"

"Ye Yuanfeng, you didn't hear what the Emperor said just now. Ye Qingzhu has not yet been dealt with."

"Do you not even respect the Emperor's orders?"

Ye Yuanfeng, who was about to take Ye Qingzhu away, froze. He wanted to take advantage of this moment to confuse everyone's attention.

But who would have thought that Ye Qingwu would actually...

Seeing that things were not going well, Ye Xuan came to Ye Yuanfeng's side, gave him a wink, and said in a low voice, "Take Qingzhu away first, I'll handle things here."

Without the Regent and the Emperor present, he refused to believe he couldn't deal with Ye Qingwu.

“Cold wind!”

As soon as Ye Qingwu spoke, Leng Feng, who was standing there, understood her intention.

He stood in front of Ye Qingzhu and Ye Yuanfeng, already drawing his sword.

"Ye Yuanfeng, you should think carefully before you leave now. You will be punished along with Ye Qingzhu."

"As for you, Duke Ye," Ye Qingwu sighed softly, "I just remembered the Emperor saying that anyone who has objections will also be dealt with."

"Does Duke Ye also want to face the same punishment?"

Ye Qingzhu stood there, her eyes red, and said to Ye Yuanfeng, "Second brother, I was wrong from the beginning, and I am willing to accept any punishment from my sister."

"Sister, please don't take your anger out on Second Brother and Father over these things. They are your family, after all."

Even after what happened that day, they still think of you.

"Thinking of me?"

Ye Qingwu sneered.

"I think he cares more about his own interests, especially since he's your good father. Even if he escapes, what can he do? He still has to send you back."

"I don't think he treats you any better than that."

"You..." Ye Qingzhu was furious, but she couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal. It was indeed true that Ye Xuan had sent her back to the Regent's Palace. Otherwise, she would have left the capital long ago and lived a carefree and happy life.

But so what? It's all thanks to Ye Qingwu.

Her current predicament is entirely Ye Qingwu's fault.

"You wicked girl, shut up!" Ye Xuan's face turned ashen with anger at Ye Qingwu's words. Although the Emperor and the Regent were not present, there were others, especially the Sixth Princess.

If Ye Qingwu's words were to get out, how would those people and his colleagues in the court view him?

This Ye Qingwu is probably here to collect debts; he won't stop until he's ruined everyone!

"Lord Ye, who are you telling me about this wicked girl?"

Ye Qingwu didn't tolerate Ye Xuan's behavior and directly asked a question in return.

"It seems the Duke also wants to do the same as Ye Qingzhu?"

"Perfect, let's give each of them two hundred slaps."

When Ye Qingzhu heard Ye Qingwu's words, her heart sank. She had thought that Ye Qingwu would at least restrain herself in front of Ye Xuan and Ye Yuanfeng.

But the result was...

Could she really not escape those two hundred slaps? In her panic, Ye Qingzhu suddenly saw Zhan Siwan standing not far away.

Among these people, perhaps only the Sixth Princess can save him, but what can he do to get Zhan Siwan to help him?

"Sixth Princess, I have something important to report."

Thinking of the dark energy that had been lingering over this period, Ye Qingzhu suddenly had an idea and called out in Zhan Siwan's direction.

Zhan Siwan frowned. Although she was dissatisfied with Ye Qingwu's behavior, Ye Qingzhu and the people from the Duke's Mansion were, to some extent, to blame for their own actions.

Now that her uncle is out of danger, she will just quietly observe what is happening.

Ye Qingzhu's shout drew Zhan Siwan's attention, and she asked Ye Qingzhu again, "What did you just say? Something important?"

"Yes."

Seeing that Zhan Siwan had noticed her, Ye Qingzhu quickly said, "Sixth Princess, may I speak to you in private?"
