Beast Taming Mad Concubine: The Useless Young Lady is Back!

"I harmed Ye Weilan?" Ye Qing'an's voice was full of danger: "Who told you this nonsense? Who told you that I harmed your sister Weilan?"

Ye Feiran snorted coldly: "No one told me that many people already know about what happened to Sister Weilan in the palace today. You are vicious and a jinx! You poisoned Sister Weilan and ruined her reputation! Get out! You are not welcome in the Ye family!"

Nobody told him?

Ye Qing'an absolutely did not believe this. She had only been back at the manor with Ye Weilan for half an hour. Even if all the young ladies from noble families had left the palace, the rumors could not have spread so quickly.

This fool has been used as a weapon by Liu Xueying and her daughter again without even realizing it.

A dark glint flashed in Ye Qing'an's eyes, and she slightly twitched the finger holding Eleven's: "Rumors are nothing but baseless gossip. Has no one ever taught you the principle that rumors stop with the wise?"

"You actually believe all that nonsense going around outside? Does that mean if people say you're a dog, you'll actually be a dog?"

Ye Feiran was enraged by Ye Qing'an's analogy: "You're the dog! You're the one talking nonsense! Mother said it was you! You're the one who put the powder on Sister Weilan, making her unbearably itchy and forced to scratch, causing her to lose all her composure in front of so many people! Making her the object of everyone's ridicule!"

"Your mother... told you that?" Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes.

Ye Feiran realized his mistake and quickly tried to correct himself.

But Ye Qing'an gave him no chance: "You are young and ignorant. If you just believed the gossip outside, that would be fine. But Mother clearly knows the truth, yet she still slandered me in front of you. It concerns my reputation, and I cannot let it go no matter what."

Ye Qing'an lowered her head and looked at Eleven: "Eleven, you stay in the courtyard. I'll take him to get justice for us."

After saying that, he stepped forward, grabbed Ye Feiran by the collar, and left.

Ye Feiran stumbled as Ye Qing'an pulled her, and her whole body was suspended in mid-air. Realizing that she had just said the wrong thing, she panicked and struggled incessantly: "Let me go, you shrew! What are you taking me to? I was just talking nonsense. Those words were overheard outside and have nothing to do with my mother! What are you going to do?"

Ye Qing'an remained unmoved, steadily carrying Ye Feiran to Ye Qinghao's main courtyard.

Upon entering the inner courtyard of the main compound, the butler was seen standing at the entrance of the main hall. Seeing Ye Qing'an carrying Ye Feiran like this, the butler was also somewhat surprised: "Young Miss, Second Young Master... what... what are you doing?"

"Put me down! Put me down!" Ye Feiran continued to struggle.

"Is Father here?" Ye Qing'an only raised her eyes to look at the steward.

Looking at the situation before him, the steward hesitated for a moment before nodding: "Master is here. This old servant will inform the young lady."

"I don't want to, I don't want to, put me down, I want to go back."

"What's all the noise about?" Ye Feiran was making a scene when she saw Ye Qinghao leading Liu Xueying out of the main hall. Ye Qinghao frowned when he saw the situation in the courtyard: "What kind of behavior is this?"

Ye Qing'an sneered and threw Ye Feiran to the ground: "Mother is here too, that's excellent."

Ye Qing'an raised her eyes to look at Ye Qinghao: "Father must already know what happened to Sister Weilan in the palace?"

Of course, Liu Xueying knew about it; she came specifically to discuss this matter with Ye Qinghao.

Ye Qing'an didn't know what Liu Xueying had said to Ye Qinghao just now, but it probably wasn't anything nice. However, Ye Qing'an was not afraid at all and said directly, "Consort Lan summoned me to the palace. My mother was worried that I was unfamiliar with palace rules and etiquette and would bring shame to the Ye family, so she asked my sister Wei Lan to come with me. I am very grateful."

"But unexpectedly, in Yihe Palace, Sister Weilan repeatedly said the wrong thing, which already displeased the Imperial Concubine, and then she lost her composure in front of the Imperial Concubine..."

Ye Qinghao frowned, looked up at Ye Qing'an: "Have you repeatedly said the wrong thing and displeased the Imperial Concubine?"

Ye Qing'an laughed, a hint of sarcasm in her eyes: "Yes, as soon as my sister saw the Imperial Concubine, she told her that she had entered the palace several times over the years but had never seen the Imperial Concubine..."

"But who in the entire capital doesn't know that the Imperial Concubine was previously under house arrest in the Cold Palace? Naturally, you couldn't see her when you entered the palace. Aren't you deliberately touching on the Imperial Concubine's sore spot by speaking like this?"

Liu Xueying, of course, had no idea what had happened in the palace, and instinctively wanted to retort, "Impossible!"

Ye Qing'an laughed: "Impossible? Mother means that I lied? At that time in Yihe Palace, everyone in the palace was listening. Whether it happened or not, Father and Mother can just ask around. I don't have that much power to make everyone in Yihe Palace lie for me."

"That would have been fine, but later, the Imperial Concubine and the Eleventh Prince played the Nine Linked Rings game together. After sitting for a while, the younger sister became restless and kept twisting and turning, which angered the Imperial Concubine."

"The Imperial Concubine immediately rebuked her younger sister, asking if there were thorns on the chairs in Yihe Palace, making her so uncomfortable. She then said that she had heard of her sister's reputation before, that everyone said her sister was beautiful and had excellent manners, but in her own eyes, she had no manners or upbringing whatsoever..."

Liu Xueying and Ye Qinghao's expressions grew increasingly grim.

Ye Qing'an's gaze grew colder: "My sister was reprimanded by Consort Lan, and then said she was unwell and took her leave. Who would have thought that on her way out of the palace she would encounter Princess Jinghe and several young ladies from noble families, and then cause a scene in front of them."

Hearing Ye Qing'an say this, Liu Xueying was even more dissatisfied: "Weilan is unwell because she was plotted against, that's why she's like this!"

"Being plotted against? Feeling unwell?" Ye Qing'an smiled and said, "My mother keeps saying that she was plotted against and that she was feeling unwell, but Princess Jinghe invited the imperial physician to treat her. After the physician's examination, he said that there was nothing wrong with her body."

"Or does Mother think that the imperial physician invited by Princess Jinghe lied?"

Liu Xueying did not enter the palace with them. Even the maids she brought could only wait at the palace gate. She had no idea that there were so many details about this matter that she was unaware of.

Her mind raced, trying to find a reasonable explanation.

However, Ye Qing'an did not want to give her a chance, and said directly, "Your Highness Consort Lan saw that there were so many people watching in Yihe Palace, and Princess Jinghe also invited the imperial physician to treat her. Mother knew nothing, but turned around and told Feiran that I was the one who did the things that happened to Sister Weilan when she entered the palace today, that I drugged her, and that I harmed her?"

"Mother, why don't you tell Father why you did this?"
