Chapter 346 Disappeared From That Day
Liu Xueying looked at Ye Qing'an in silence, a dark glint flashing in her eyes.
Ah……
When the master was alive, he spared no effort to deal with her, as if he wouldn't stop until he killed her.
Now that the master has left, she feels that she has lost her backer and is afraid that she will secretly cause trouble for her, so she came to beg for peace.
They even used such high-sounding reasons, saying that the rise and fall of the Ye family was closely related to each and every one of them.
Liu Xueying sneered inwardly, but secretly felt a surge of excitement.
Yes……
She had repeatedly stumbled at Ye Qing'an's hands before, but that was only because the master was in the mansion, and because Ye Qing'an was a Holy Spirit Body, the master favored her.
But now that the master is no longer in the mansion, Ye Qing'an has no one to rely on.
With the master absent, it is indeed possible that others will try to take action against the Ye family.
If something happens to the Ye family, Liu Xueying will indeed be affected.
but……
But in the past ten years or so, Ye Qinghao would occasionally leave. Every time Ye Qinghao was not in the mansion, wasn't it her who took good care of the Ye mansion?
With the master gone, the Ye family cannot function without her.
But whether Ye Qing'an is there or not is completely irrelevant.
She could have taken this opportunity to plan and scheme to make Ye Qing'an disappear from this world forever.
A murderous glint flashed in Liu Xueying's eyes, but her expression remained smiling: "Yes, you're right. The rise and fall of the Ye family is closely related to each and every one of us. Now that the master is not in the manor, the Ye family absolutely cannot afford to be in trouble. We must manage the Ye family properly and protect the Ye family and everyone in the Ye family while the master is away."
Hearing Liu Xueying say this, Ye Qing'an breathed a long sigh of relief, her face showing a sense of relief and her smile becoming much more cheerful: "Mother is truly a magnanimous person. It was all my fault before, please forgive me."
"It's alright, it's all for the good of the Ye family."
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, but her hand, hidden in her sleeve, moved secretly. A wisp of spiritual energy shot out from her sleeve and probed around the courtyard.
After talking with Liu Xueyong for a while, Ye Qing'an got up to take his leave.
As she walked into the courtyard, the spiritual energy she had released earlier silently returned and slipped into Ye Qing'an's sleeve.
Ye Qing'an frowned slightly, but said no.
Liu Xueying did not detect Jiu Xiao's presence in her courtyard.
Something must have happened to Jiuxiao, but Ye Qing'an had no idea what had happened to him or where he was now.
She had formed a spirit beast contract with Jiuxiao, so if Jiuxiao were seriously injured or gone, she would definitely be able to sense it.
Jiuxiao should be fine, so why did he just disappear for no reason?
Without returning to the Cloud Dreamland, the summoning circle was completely useless.
Could it be that he is unconscious?
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips. Regardless of the circumstances, Jiu Xiao disappeared yesterday because he was in Liu Xueying's courtyard on business. This matter was most likely related to Liu Xueying. Perhaps tonight, she could try to break into the courtyard.
Ye Qing'an left a trace of spiritual energy in the courtyard again before quickly leaving.
Back in the courtyard, Ye Qing'an saw Eleven playing with Yi Moxu. Although it had rained last night, the ground in the courtyard was already dry. Eleven was squatting on the ground with several wooden toys on it.
"what is this?"
Ye Qing'an walked over and looked down at the wooden toys on the ground.
"Mother, look, these are all made for me by Doctor Xu, a vast army of wooden figures."
Ye Qing'an raised his eyebrows. A thousand troops and horses?
As Ye Qing'an got closer, he noticed the wooden objects on the ground, with several wooden-carved carts at the front.
"This is a siege engine."
"Archers are behind the siege engine."
Several small wooden horses followed closely behind the archers, each ridden by a person wearing armor.
"These are cavalry."
Behind the soldiers were small wooden figures. Without Eleven's explanation, Ye Qing'an immediately understood: "These are infantry?"
“Yeah, right.” Eleven chuckled. “We can also split into two armies and face each other, pretending it’s a war.”
Ye Qing'an glanced at Yi Moxu, and suddenly the argument between Su Yusheng and the old lady of Su about what Ye Feiran should study came to mind yesterday at the Su residence.
Yi Moxu also wanted Eleven to learn military tactics and formations?
Ye Qing'an pondered for a moment, then decided it was alright. In her previous life, she had been a regent and had learned military strategy and tactics.
Moreover, given his background, the art of military strategy and tactics should still be of considerable use to him after he learns them.
Thinking this way, Ye Qing'an let them go.
Nothing out of the ordinary happened in the manor today. In the evening, the steward arrived, carrying a thick stack of account books.
“Miss, these are the account books that were delivered from the shops outside today. You can come quietly when you have nothing to do, but it doesn’t matter, they’re nothing important.”
Ye Qing'an responded, then asked again, "Has Father already led the troops out of the city?"
"Yes." The butler nodded, then paused before saying, "Not only the master, but also the head of the Gu family is traveling with us."
Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes. Because of what happened on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the discord between the Ye family and the Gu family was probably already common knowledge.
At this moment, Yi Yun Kui ordered Ye Qing Hao and Gu Hai to lead troops to subdue the Taotie monster.
But upon further reflection, Ye Qing'an understood that it was precisely because the Ye family and the Gu family were at odds that Yi Yun Kui had deliberately done this.
Only when both sides check and balance each other can there be a balance, and it can also prevent one of them from causing any trouble.
Ye Qing'an chuckled. Yi Yun Kui's idea was quite clever.
"And it wasn't just our two family heads; the Emperor also dispatched the Imperial Guard, and Miss recognizes the person leading the Imperial Guard."
Ye Qing'an looked up. Did she recognize her? The Imperial Guard?
"He Yi?"
"Yes, it is He Yi."
Ye Qing'an's fingers paused slightly. Yi Yun Kui was trying to gather everyone involved in the Mid-Autumn Festival incident together...
However, since Ye Qinghao was determined to use this incident to show weakness, he must have already made plans.
Although she hadn't had much contact with the head of the Gu family, she could roughly deduce from the rumors and the few words they exchanged in the dungeon that day that Gu Hai must be a self-important person who couldn't wait to show off.
She wasn't too worried.
The only unexpected event was He Yi.
Ye Qing'an tapped her fingers lightly. He Yi didn't seem like someone easy to deal with.
And even now, she still doesn't know which side He Yi belongs to...
