Xu Qingchen didn't seem to hear her. She turned and walked out of the door.
Ye Li glanced coldly at Dongfang You, who was sitting on the ground, and said, "Miss Dongfang, after being a prisoner, you still don't know what it means to know your place?" Dongfang You finally stopped staring at Xu Qingchen's back. She stared at Ye Li angrily and said, "Who is that girl?"
Ye Li raised her eyebrows and smiled, "If Miss Dongfang doesn't know who Yunge is, why would you fight with her?"
Dongfang You screamed, "That's impossible. How can that wild girl who doesn't know anything be worthy of Young Master Qingchen! You lied to me … Ye Li, how did I offend you? Why do you have to break me up with Young Master Qingchen? " Ye Li looked up and rolled her eyes. Dongfang You was crazy. "Miss Dongfang, what do you mean I want to break you up with Young Master Qingchen? Did my brother even look at you? "Ye Li suddenly felt that she had been wronged. She was a good sister who cared about her big brother's lifelong happiness. She was definitely not picky. She was the best sister-in-law in the world.
"It must be you. Otherwise, Young Master Qingchen wouldn't dislike me!" Dongfang You said angrily.
"Miss Dongfang, you think too much." Ye Li said calmly, "Look at how big brother treats Yunge, and then look at how big brother treats you. Don't you know what kind of girl he likes?"
Dongfang You glared fiercely at Ye Li. Ye Li blinked her eyes and smiled faintly, "Miss Dongfang, if I were you, I would rather think about how many days I have left than think about all this nonsense."
"You want to kill me?" Dongfang You looked at her coldly and said disdainfully. Ye Li shook her head and said, "I don't plan to kill you. In fact, I plan to let you go."
"You think I'll believe you?" Dongfang You sneered. Ye Li said sincerely, "It's true. I plan to let you go. And … I'll send you back to your original subordinates in the Boundless Mountain. Along with the evidence of you murdering Dongfang Hui. "Hearing Ye Li's words, Dongfang You's face instantly turned pale. Murdering Dongfang Hui was the only thing she had done in her life that she couldn't escape condemnation. At the same time, it was also something that would definitely cost her her life if word got out.
While not even a tenth of Infinite Boundless Mountain's power remained, there were still quite a few people who were loyal to Infinite Boundless Mountain. These people were loyal to her, because she was the Young Master of the Boundless Mountain, to be the successor to Dongfang Hui. Once people found out that she was the one who killed Dongfang Hui, those people would immediately turn against her to avenge Dongfang Hui. Dongfang You still had self-awareness. How could his mere few months compare to Dongfang Hui's decades of prestige?
Looking at Dongfang You's bleak expression, Ye Li did not have the slightest bit of sympathy for her. To her, Dongfang Hui was an enemy. But to Dongfang You, Dongfang Hui was her Master, her mother, and her savior. If it weren't for Dongfang Hui, Dongfang You would have died long ago. She wouldn't have boasted that she was proficient in the four arts, martial arts, and medicine. She was the only one in the world who was worthy of Young Master Qingchen. Even if Dongfang Hui had wronged everyone in the world, she hadn't wronged Dongfang You. She betrayed her Master and even sent people to assassinate Dongfang Hui just because Dongfang Hui stood in her way. She was no different from a beast. Xu Qingchen didn't like her. Even if Xu Qingchen liked her, he would kill her. Of course, Young Master Qingchen's vision was much sharper than Ye Li's.
Originally, Ye Li hadn't thought of how to deal with Dongfang You. There was no point in keeping such a person alive. It just so happened that many hidden powers of the Boundless Mountain were hard to find. Once Ye Li released the truth of Dongfang Hui's murder, there were immediately people who were loyal to Dongfang Hui, disloyal to Dongfang You, and secretly ambitious people who wanted to form their own power.
Therefore, Ye Li naturally didn't object to using Dongfang You in exchange for some benefits. Of course, this had to ensure that Dongfang You didn't survive. Dongfang You's obsession with Xu Qingchen had long been twisted. If she escaped, Ye Li couldn't guarantee what she would do.
Because they planned to go north as soon as possible, Xu Qingchen didn't delay any longer. The next morning, he brought Yun Ge to the House of Marquis Muyang. Hearing the news of Young Master Qingchen's visit, Mu Yang and his father's faces turned ugly. If it was in the past, they would naturally welcome Young Master Qingchen's visit. But now … Prince Li had just been screwed over by the Prince Ding Mansion. Of course, this wasn't the fault of the Prince Ding Mansion. But no one in power wouldn't be angry. At this time, although Prince Li didn't send people to do anything to Princess Ding and Young Master Qingchen, it was because he didn't have the confidence to catch them all. It wasn't that he didn't want to. Now that they were too close to Young Master Qingchen, weren't they rushing to let Prince Li vent his anger?
However, Young Master Qingchen was not someone who they could ignore whenever they wanted to see him. With Xu Qingchen's fame and status, you might not be able to see him when you wanted to. But when he wanted to see you, you definitely couldn't refuse to see him.
"Young Master Qingchen, Young Master Qingchen came from afar. This old man didn't welcome you properly. It was really rude of me." Old Marquis Muyang led Mu Yang and the Mu Family to welcome Xu Qingchen with a face full of smiles. Xu Qingchen glanced at the group of people behind Marquis Muyang with a faint smile. It was said that Marquis Muyang was Mo Jingqi's confidant. Now that Mo Jingqi's reputation had fallen and his family was ruined, but Marquis Muyang's family was still prosperous and even more powerful than before. He was indeed a rare person among the generals who knew how to monopolize.
Frowning slightly, Xu Qingchen glanced at Yun Ge. Was it really a good thing to leave Yun Ge in the House of Marquis Muyang? Even if Yaoji was here, Yaoji had a heavy responsibility. How could she have the time to take care of an ignorant child? Besides … how long could the House of Marquis Muyang last?
Yun Ge followed beside Xu Qingchen and looked strangely at the old man who was talking to Xu Qingchen. Since he felt that he didn't welcome them properly, why didn't he just go out to welcome them? Even if he was older, it didn't matter if he didn't welcome them. Yun Ge frowned. She didn't know why, but intuitively, she didn't like this old man who was smiling amiably at Xu Qingchen.
Old Marquis Muyang naturally also saw the young girl standing beside Xu Qingchen. He felt it was strange. Young Master Qingchen was famous for being disrespectful to women. He was already over the age of 30 but hadn't gotten married. Why would he be with a beautiful young girl?
Mu Yang and Yaoji naturally met Yun Ge before. Yaoji had a good impression of this young girl who was skilled in martial arts and nodded at her with a smile. Yun Ge blinked her eyes and smiled sweetly at Yaoji. Although Yun Ge hated those people at the banquet last night, she didn't hold a grudge. Besides, what happened last night had nothing to do with them. It was all that heartless Prince Li's fault!
"Yaoji, do you know this young girl?" Marquis Muyang's wife, who was standing behind Mu Yang and beside Yaoji, suddenly asked in a sharp voice. Old Marquis Muyang frowned. He was very dissatisfied with his daughter-in-law's rude behavior, but he also glanced at Yaoji.
Mu Yang glared at his wife and made an excuse, "Father, I saw this young girl at Prince Li's Mansion last night."
"Prince Li's Mansion?" Old Marquis Muyang frowned. What happened at Prince Li's Mansion last night? Mu Yang only said a few words vaguely. As an official, he naturally needed to understand that some things could be said, and some things could not be said even to the people closest to him. Old Marquis Muyang didn't know what happened at Prince Li's Mansion last night, but from the news of the Emperor's critical condition and Princess Consort Li's death this morning, it was probably not a small matter.
Old Marquis Muyang glanced at Xu Qingchen vigilantly and said in a deep voice, "May I know why Young Master Qingchen is here?"
Xu Qingchen smiled faintly, "Marquis Muyang, are you going to talk to me here?"
If possible, Old Marquis Muyang really wanted to talk here. But at the same time, he also understood that this was not the place to talk. He smiled awkwardly and turned to the side, "Young Master, please come in."
After entering the hall and taking a seat, Yun Ge sat obediently next to Xu Qingchen. She was so quiet and well-behaved that one couldn't tell that she was the innocent and lively girl who was filled with righteous indignation over someone else's matter last night.
After the tea was served, Mu Yang asked, "Young Master Qingchen, may I know who this young girl is …"
Xu Qingchen put down the teacup and glanced at Yun Ge, saying indifferently, "May I know if Marquis Muyang remembers a doctor called Shen Fengru?"
"Shen Fengru?" Mu Yang frowned in confusion and looked at his parents. Old Marquis Muyang's expression changed slightly. He quickly glanced at Yun Ge who was sitting beside Xu Qingchen and said in a deep voice, "This old man has never heard of him. May I know why Young Master Qingchen is asking about this? "
Xu Qingchen said, "Then, about three to four years ago, Marquis Muyang should not have received a single letter from this Mister Shen." Old Marquis Muyang's expression had returned to normal. He nodded and said, "This old man has indeed not received any letters."
"If that's the case, this one will take his leave." Xu Qingchen's expression darkened and did not say anything else. He stood up and said to Yun Ge, "Yun Ge, let's go."
"Hmm?" Yun Ge looked at Xu Qingchen in confusion. She did not understand why he was suddenly unhappy. However, if Xu Qingchen was unhappy, she would usually be the unlucky one. So she quickly stood up and walked to Xu Qingchen's side. She hesitated for a moment before asking, "But, didn't you say you would help me find someone? Is … is it because you can't find him? It's okay, there's no need to rush … "
Xu Qingchen smiled faintly and looked at Yun Ge, saying, "There's no need to find him. The person your father arranged can't come and pick you up."
"Wh … why?" Yun Ge did not understand.
"Their entire family is already dead." Xu Qingchen walked out without looking back. He completely did not see Old Marquis Muyang's expression turn ugly as if he had swallowed a fly.
She had never seen Xu Qingchen so rude. Yun Ge nodded apologetically at Marquis Muyang who was so angry that his face turned green. She quickly chased after him, "Xu Qingchen, don't be angry. It's not their fault that they died early. I can do it by myself … "
"Don't worry. You'll come with me to Glass City in the future. Are you afraid that the Prince Ding Mansion can't support a little girl like you? "Xu Qingchen's voice came faintly with a hint of joy.
"I'm not a little girl. Then … do I have to go visit the grave? It's just that … my father said that for the next three years, I have to visit his grave every year on the anniversary of his death. Otherwise, he'll be angry. "
"There's no need. Wait until they're all dead." Xu Qingchen said faintly.
"But, didn't you say that they're all dead?" Yun Ge glared at him angrily.
"I said there's no need. Do you understand?" Xu Qingchen stopped and looked at Yun Ge with a gentle smile. Yun Ge immediately shrunk her head. She lowered her head and said softly, "I understand …" Xu Qingchen was getting fiercer. Sob sob …
