Chapter 365 She Wants to Kill Me
Ye Qing'an originally planned to have Ye Feiran pretend to be poisoned by the Heavenly Fate Powder on the third day, and then have Yi Moxu use this as an excuse for the two of them to leave together.
But who could have predicted that plans would be subject to change, and something bad happened the following night.
It was late at night, and Ye Qing'an was cultivating in the Cloud Dream Realm, while Jiu Xiao was keeping an eye on Liu Xueying.
Before he could finish a full cycle of cultivation, Jiu Xiao's loud voice rang out: "Quick, quick, something's happened!"
Ye Qing'an ignored him. Jiu Xiao was extremely anxious, pacing back and forth in front of Ye Qing'an, crying out, "Something really has happened! Ye Weilan, Ye Weilan is going to kill Liu Xueying!"
Ye Qing'an suddenly opened her eyes: "What did you say?"
"Ye Weilan is going to kill Liu Xueying!"
Ye Qing'an suddenly stood up, about to leave with Jiu Xiao, but then suddenly remembered something: "Did you call for help? Have the guards from the manor gone there yet?"
"They've called for help."
"Then I should go back inside and wait. If something happens to Liu Xueying, the manor will definitely send someone to fetch me. You keep an eye on things and make sure Ye Weilan doesn't really hurt Lanqing."
"Good good."
Ye Qing'an quickly left the Dreamland of Clouds.
The courtyard remained quiet, as the news had likely not yet been received.
Ye Qing'an lay on the bed, still feeling somewhat surprised.
Why would Ye Weilan target Liu Xueying?
Upon closer reflection, however, it seemed there was nothing strange about it. Ye Weilan already harbored resentment towards Liu Xueying because of what had happened before.
Moreover, she had overheard the two talking in the temple before, and Ye Weilan was already very dissatisfied with Liu Xueying, feeling that Liu Xueying had no ability and was of no help to her.
Now that Liu Xueying has gone mad again, she is no longer of any use to her; in fact, she has become a burden.
Under these circumstances, killing Liu Xueying and framing her, or perhaps Yi Moxu, would certainly be the best option.
What Ye Weilan didn't expect was that the person lying on that bed was not Liu Xueying at all.
Moreover, it did not actually fall into a deep sleep.
Ye Weilan is quite a ruthless character.
He could even harm his own biological mother without any mercy.
Ye Qing'an lay down for a while, and sure enough, she heard a knock on the door.
The knocking was loud, accompanied by shouts: "Open the door! Open the door quickly! Something has happened at home!"
A short while later, Ye Qing'an heard the door creak open and could faintly hear voices.
Ye Qing'an put on her clothes and got up. Just as she stood up, she saw Zi Xiao walk in quickly from outside the door: "Miss, something happened to Madam."
Ye Qing'an responded, "Help me change my clothes."
Zixiao quickly agreed, fetched clothes for Ye Qing'an to wear, and then went to comb Ye Qing'an's hair: "There's no need to do any hair bun, just tie a hair ribbon casually."
"it is good."
After getting ready, Ye Qing'an led Zixiao out the door, where Granny Wei was already waiting with a lantern.
"Have you asked what exactly happened?"
Granny Wei responded in a low voice, "This servant doesn't know if I didn't hear clearly, but the servant who came to deliver the message just now did say that the Second Miss wanted to kill the Madam."
"What?" Ye Qing'an turned around in surprise: "How is this possible?"
"I also think that's unlikely. I must have misheard. The messenger left in a hurry after delivering the message, so there was no way to ask for details."
"It's alright." Ye Qing'an pursed her lips tightly. "You'll know when we get there."
When Ye Qing'an arrived, she saw that the courtyard was brightly lit, and servants from other courtyards were peeking out from outside to inquire about the situation. There were guards at the gate of the courtyard, and they quickly opened the gate when they saw Ye Qing'an coming.
Two teams of guards stood in the courtyard, holding torches and waiting for orders, while servants kept coming and going at the entrance of the main hall.
Ye Qing'an saw the butler standing in the main hall, his face somewhat somber under the lamplight.
Ye Qing'an strode over: "Steward, what exactly happened? Why were so many guards dispatched? Was there a night attack? The servant who came to report earlier was in a panic and didn't explain things clearly. The people in my courtyard misunderstood and thought that my second sister was going to kill Mother..."
“I didn’t mishear.” The butler said directly, “It was indeed the second young lady who wanted to kill the madam.”
Ye Qing'an froze on the spot, her mouth slightly agape, and it took her a long time to come to her senses: "How is that possible?"
"Second sister, why would you want to kill Mother?" Ye Qing'an asked incredulously. "Could there be a mistake? Or perhaps, second sister, you've also been poisoned?"
The butler shook his head, his expression slightly grave: "Neither, Miss. Please come in and take a look."
Ye Qing'an nodded slightly and followed the steward into the house. The lights in the house were on, and there were two guards standing guard inside. In addition to the guards, there were three other people in the house.
Liu Xueying, Ye Weilan, and Granny Li.
Granny Li stood at the door, wiping away tears incessantly.
Ye Weilan slumped down at the table, but she still occasionally looked up at Liu Xueying, her eyes filled with resentment.
Liu Xueying was on the bed, but she just huddled in the corner, her head buried in her knees, somewhat dazed, her eyes filled with fear, and she kept muttering, "She wants to kill me. I raised such a big daughter, and she wants to kill me."
His voice was hoarse, and his tone was almost unrecognizable.
Ye Qing'an raised her eyebrows slightly. Appearance can be disguised, but voice is not easy to change.
The reason Lan Qing chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb before was also because of this.
However, since Ye Weilan killed her suddenly, Lan Qing could not have temporarily ruined her voice like this. She must have planned ahead and made two preparations.
This woman is indeed a very capable and thorough person.
A look of joy flashed across Ye Qing'an's face: "Mother is better?"
The steward stood by and watched, then nodded slightly: "It should be so. It was Madam herself who called for help. And when this old servant came over, Madam seemed to be quite lucid, so she should be alright."
“But Mother… didn’t take any antidote either.” Ye Qing’an frowned, then quickly relaxed: “It’s probably as Doctor Xu said, the Destiny Disperses, and everything depends on fate.”
Ye Qing'an walked to the bedside and looked steadily at Liu Xueying: "Mother, don't panic, we are all here, no one will kill you. Can you tell us what happened?"
Liu Xueying then raised her head, her eyes brimming with tears. She glanced at Ye Qing'an, then looked at Ye Weilan beside her, before taking a deep breath...
"I...I felt like I had a very long dream, and then as I gradually regained consciousness, I heard someone speaking in my ear, saying..."
"She told me not to blame her, saying that I had gone crazy and that I couldn't do anything and would only become a burden to her."
"She said she didn't want to be pointed at and talked about as the daughter of a madman whenever she went out in the future."
"She said that if I lived, I would only tarnish the reputation of the Ye family, tarnish her reputation, and tarnish the reputation of her elder brother. It would be better for me to die..."
