Chapter 649 Three Transformations
Ye Qing'an turned her head and saw that Yi Moxu had appeared behind her at some point.
Ye Qing'an frowned. It must have just appeared. She had just sensed the situation in the Cloud Dream Realm and had not sensed Yi Moxu's appearance.
"Hmm..." Ye Qing'an's expression remained calm, as if she wasn't the one who had just been speculating about Yi Moxu's affairs behind his back.
Yi Moxu sat down opposite Ye Qing'an: "We are already married. There shouldn't be many secrets between husband and wife. I didn't tell you because I thought you might not be interested. Since you are interested, you can ask me directly. As long as you ask, I will answer you."
Ye Qing'an blinked and looked at Yi Moxu: "Then tell me, what big mistake did you make back then?"
Yi Moxu sneered: "Because Yi Yunkui's two favorite furnaces back then slandered me, saying that I forced them to engage in dual cultivation with them."
Ye Qing'an narrowed his eyes: "A cultivation vessel? You forced the cultivation vessel to engage in dual cultivation with you?"
Do you know what slander means?
Ye Qing'an chuckled lightly: "So, they slandered you, and Yi Yun Kui believed it? He even directly crippled your spiritual power and severed your meridians?"
“Hmm.” Yi Moxu nodded: “At that time, I was young and impetuous, and I also found it unbelievable. I wondered why my father would believe such absurd rumors and then treat me like that.”
"When I first arrived in Qian'an, all my meridians were severed, and I could only lie in bed, unable to do anything. During that time, I really thought about ending my life countless times."
"But later, something happened that made me suddenly realize that perhaps it wasn't because my father was suspicious and believed what those furnace cauldrons said. Rather... he may have long intended to deal with me and treat me that way. The so-called forced furnace cauldrons to cultivate with me was just a trap he made up on the spot."
Yi Moxu's eyes were full of coldness: "It was because of this conjecture, and because some things that happened later confirmed my guess, that I completely gave up on him."
Ye Qing'an narrowed his eyes: "You are his son, so why is he treating you like this?"
“I’m also curious about this question.” Yi Moxu lowered his eyes, his face no longer showing much emotion. “At first, I even thought about going back to the palace to question Yi Yunkui about why he did that and what I did wrong. But then I felt that it didn’t seem to matter anymore.”
"Perhaps he is naturally suspicious, and when I was young, I was praised too highly. Countless people said I was a rare genius, so he felt threatened."
"It's also possible that something other people around him said to him made him gradually become suspicious of me."
"But later I also felt that no matter what the reason was, it didn't seem to matter that much anymore."
Yi Moxu smiled and said, "But maybe one day, when I return to Wangjing City and see him, I will still ask him about it."
Ye Qing'an nodded, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "It's also possible that Yi Yun Kui was being controlled by Liu Enze at the time."
"Liu Enze was the Grand Tutor. Back then, all of you princes studied under him. Perhaps it was because Liu Enze discovered your unique talent while teaching you that he became wary and manipulated Yi Yun Kui into doing what he did?"
Yi Moxu chuckled softly: "Perhaps."
Ye Qing'an had made many guesses about Yi Moxu's exile, but she never expected that the cause of the matter would be such a simple thing.
For a moment, he didn't know what to say. After a brief silence, he asked, "Where did you go?"
Yi Moxu sat down: "I heard you mention before that Yi Yunkui may have fallen into Liu Enze's control many years ago, so I went to see someone and asked about the situation."
"You saw someone?" Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow. "Who?"
After asking the question, Ye Qing'an had a vague idea in his mind: "Consort Lan?"
"Ah."
Ye Qing'an had already heard the news that Consort Lan had gone to a temple to practice Buddhism while she was in Wangjing.
However, after Yi Moxu started his rebellion, he felt that since Yi Moxu had started his rebellion, Consort Lan was an excellent hostage for Yi Yunkui, and Yi Yunkui would most likely not let her go.
But if Ye Qing'an could think of it, Yi Moxu could naturally think of it too, after all, that was his mother.
Therefore, Yi Moxu should have already taken Consort Lan away.
“If Yi Yun Kui had been controlled by Liu En Ze long ago, then Yi Yun Kui’s temperament and personality would definitely have changed.”
Yi Moxu nodded: "As for Yi Yunkui's temperament, only those who are close to him can truly understand it."
Ye Qing'an nodded and blinked, "What did Consort Lan say?"
“My mother said that she could sense that Yi Yun Kui’s temperament had changed three times.”
Ye Qing'an frowned upon hearing this: "So many?"
“It’s not necessarily all because he was controlled by Liu Enze,” Yi Moxu said in a low voice. “My mother said that Yi Yunkui’s first change occurred after he ascended the throne. When Yi Yunkui was the crown prince, he was actually quite mild-mannered and polite. After he ascended the throne, he suddenly became violent.”
"She said that what impressed her most was that shortly after he ascended the throne, a servant who had served him for a long time spilled a few drops of tea on his hand while pouring tea, and he sucked the person dry."
"Dried up?"
Yi Moxu nodded: "The Xuanling Technique was used to drain the servant's blood and energy, and the servant suddenly became a dried-up corpse."
Ye Qing'an frowned. If such methods were used, then they could indeed be described as cruel.
"Then the second change occurred..." Yi Moxu pursed his lips: "I made a special note of the time, which was shortly after you mentioned that Liu Enze had just become the Grand Tutor. My mother also said that during that period, Yi Yunkui and Liu Enze were quite close."
"During that period, Yi Yun Kui changed in that he became less brutal, but he became suspicious, and all sorts of small things would arouse his suspicion."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "And the third time?"
Yi Yun Kui was silent for a while: "The third time was after I had the accident."
"After your accident?"
Yi Yun Kui nodded: "After my accident, Yi Yun Kui's personality changed again. My mother said she couldn't quite put her finger on it, but she felt that Yi Yun Kui seemed to have turned back into the tyrannical Yi Yun Kui who had just ascended the throne. Not only tyrannical, but also suspicious."
"It's probably because they've learned to hide it, to conceal a part of their violence and suspicion."
