Seeing Ye Qing'an's ruthless and invincible appearance, everyone was terrified and no one dared to step forward.

Fourth Aunt gritted her teeth. Having just suffered such a great loss at Ye Qing'an's hands, she dared not make the same mistake again.

He left with only his maidservant, and turned away in a huff.

After taking a few steps, she started muttering to herself again: "The eldest daughter is nothing but a good-for-nothing."

As if afraid Ye Qing'an wouldn't hear, her voice wasn't quiet either: "I don't even know where this bastard came from, yet you still protect it like it's your own eyeball. Even if you protect it, it's still a despicable bastard that can't be shown to anyone..."

Before Fourth Aunt could finish speaking, she suddenly stumbled.

"what……"

Fourth Aunt exclaimed in surprise, and the maid behind her hurriedly reached out to help her, but it was too late.

The path that Fourth Aunt had been walking on was right at the edge of the artificial hill. When she stumbled, she fell straight down the hill.

"Ah..." A gasp of surprise rang out from this side, but it was quickly drowned out by the fourth concubine's scream.

"Ah! Ah!" Fourth Aunt cried out twice before landing on her forehead first. With a loud thud, blood was seen seeping from her forehead.

Then his body landed with a heavy thud.

However, Fourth Aunt was not knocked unconscious by the fall; her cries of pain almost pierced the sky: "Ah! It hurts! It hurts!"

Her maid was also stunned. It took her a while to recover before she rushed down and helped her up.

Ye Qing'an casually put her hands behind her back and sneered, "This is probably what they mean by 'those who do many evil deeds will surely perish,' right? This mouth of yours is so filthy that even God can't stand it."

Everyone quickly lowered their eyes, except for one person whose finger twitched slightly, his expression thoughtful.

Just now, everyone subconsciously looked at Fourth Aunt after hearing what she said, and did not pay attention to Ye Qing'an. However, she saw her move and saw Ye Qing'an condense a stream of energy in her hand and move it towards Fourth Aunt.

Then, the fourth concubine fell down.

This young lady is probably not so simple.

The woman concealed her emotions, but her heart was in turmoil.

Previously, when Liu Xueying had an accident and was stripped of her power as head housekeeper, the other concubines were saying that Liu Xueying's luck had been bad lately. First, Ye Weilan had an accident, initially inexplicably injuring her throat, and then she made a fool of herself in the palace. Not long after, Liu Xueying herself caused that incident.

But then she suddenly remembered that Liu Xueying had had a smooth life in the manor for the past few years. Although she had some setbacks, she had never suffered such a big fall. All these recent events seemed to have happened after this young lady returned to the manor.

Even when Ye Weilan injured her throat, it was said that it was because of a conflict she had with this young lady at the manor that caused her to end up in that state.

Adding to what happened today, she suddenly realized that perhaps everything was because of this young lady.

She was startled by the thought that crossed her mind, but as she put everything together, she felt that perhaps it really was true.

The woman glanced at Ye Qing'an, if that were truly the case...

If that's the case, then wouldn't her child's revenge be achieved?

The child... her child...

Ye Qing'an, however, did not notice her. Her gaze was fixed on the hanging flower gate at the entrance of the garden in the distance, because she had seen it.

Xu Mo has arrived.

Fourth Aunt was still shouting and cursing, telling the maid to quickly fetch a doctor. A number of people stood around Ye Qing'an, whispering amongst themselves. Eleven lay on the ground, covered in blood.

The backyard was quite lively.

Xu Mo glanced at the messy backyard, paused slightly, and couldn't help but furrow his brows.

"Xu Yixiu, quick, over here."

Xu Mo then lifted his foot and walked towards Ye Qing'an.

Just as he reached the foot of the artificial hill, his fourth aunt, who was lying there, called out to him: "Are you a healer? Come and take a look at me! My head hurts so much, and my legs hurt so much too. It feels like they're broken."

Ye Qing'an naturally heard the commotion as well, and only glanced lightly at Fourth Aunt: "I invited Doctor Xu first. Has Fourth Aunt forgotten the lesson of that slap just now? If you have, I can give you another slap, and I can even break your hand as well."

Fourth Aunt immediately fell silent. She knew, of course, that Ye Qing'an wasn't just bluffing; she really would do it.

Fourth Aunt gritted her teeth, filled with intense hatred.

She will avenge this humiliation.

Xu Mo didn't look at Fourth Aunt, but went straight up the artificial hill, squatted down next to Eleven, and carefully examined Eleven's injuries.

Ye Qing'an quickly said, "The ground is a bit cold. Can we move Eleven's injuries? If so, let's take him to the courtyard first and then check on him."

Xu Mo glanced at Ye Qing'an, then began to check on Eleven's condition. After a while, Xu Mo looked at Ye Qing'an again and said, "Okay, let's take him back first. There's so much blood here, it's hard for me to check his injuries. Take off his clothes when we get back so I can examine him properly."

"it is good."

Just as Ye Qing'an was about to order someone to carry Eleven back, she saw Xu Mo bend down and pick Eleven up in his arms.

Ye Qing'an was taken aback. He wanted to suggest that a servant could carry him, but there was too much blood on Eleven, which would stain his moon-white robe.

Upon closer inspection, bloodstains were visible on the robe.

"Come on, where do you live? Take me there."

"..."

Where does she live?

Ye Qing'an scoffed. They've already gone to her courtyard to investigate, yet they still don't know where she lives.

Although she was thinking this to herself, Ye Qing'an was also worried about Eleven's injuries and dared not delay at all. She quickly walked ahead to lead the way.

Fourth Aunt originally intended to show the sleeve to that little bastard and then check her injuries, but she didn't expect them to be leaving so soon. Just as she was about to speak, she glanced up and saw Ye Qing'an's cold profile, so she had to swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue and grit her teeth in secret.

Xu Mo carried Ye Qing'an back to the courtyard and placed her on the bed in the eleventh room. Only then did Xu Mo turn around and instruct the servants: "When I am treating patients, I don't like any idle people waiting on the side. Go and boil some hot water first, and put it outside the door when it's ready. Just call me."

The servants quickly withdrew.

Once the footsteps had faded into the distance, Xu Mo simply lifted up Eleven's clothes.

Previously, Eleven had been lying down, and later Xu Mo had been holding her, so Ye Qing'an hadn't noticed. Only now did she realize that Eleven's clothes were bulging, as if she was hiding something.

what?

As Ye Qing'an was pondering this, she saw Xu Mo take a rabbit out of Eleven's clothes...

A dead rabbit, its body seemingly soaked in blood.
