Long Fei Ye didn't like to waste words, much less waste time with irrelevant people.
Although Duanmu Yao held a lot of weight in the sword sect master's eyes and had considerable influence on Cang Qiuzi's side, Long Feiye still didn't place her in his eyes.
If he wanted to meddle in Celestial Mountain's affairs, he didn't need Duanmu Yao's face. He didn't need her help, nor did he fear her interference.
He was going to order someone to snatch the letter and leave, but he didn't say anything when he saw Han Yunxi get off the carriage. Instead, he quietly drank tea and took out the Annals of the Seven Noble Families to study.
If Han Yunxi liked to play, he'd let her be. If she went overboard, he'd clean up the mess for her.
As soon as Han Yunxi got off the carriage, Uncle Gao withdrew.
Duanmu Yao assumed that Long Fei Ye would get off the carriage, but Han Yunxi got off alone. She felt disappointed and quickly wiped away her tears, not wanting Han Yunxi to see her in such a sorry state.
Unfortunately, she could wipe away her tears, but the same couldn't be said for her disheveled state.
Han Yunxi had already jumped off the carriage, but she sat back down and leaned lazily against the door frame, toying with the horsewhip in her hand.
She didn't "look" at Duanmu Yao directly, but "studied" her from the side.
Han Yunxi's gaze first rested on Duanmu Yao's feet, then slowly moved up and down her face. It was a standard look of contempt, full of disdain and disdain. Duanmu Yao found it an eyesore.
Duanmu Yao was already feeling a little guilty, so Han Yunxi's scrutiny turned her shame into anger. "Han Yunxi, what are you looking at?"
"I'm looking at what a clingy person looks like."
Han Yunxi said, before examining Duanmu Yao from head to toe. "Now you can see clearly."
"You!"
Duanmu Yao was so angry that she almost attacked, but held back in the end.
Since Han Yunxi dared to get out of the car, she must make her regret it for the rest of her life!
Although master didn't know about Cang Qiuzi's marriage with the Tang Clan, he did know that she'd come looking for senior brother to treat her injuries. No matter what, she couldn't make a move. Neither could her words or actions be in the wrong. She couldn't leave any evidence that could be used against her.
She had to let Han Yunxi be in the wrong so that she could complain.
So what if Han Yunxi was Senior Martial Brother's official wife? Once she gave Master a bad impression, she would have no chance!
One had to know that with his master's temper, once he didn't like someone, he would hate them to the core. There was no way he could change his mind.
Duanmu Yao ignored Han Yunxi's humiliation and ignored her as a person. She said loudly, "Senior brother, are you going to disobey master's orders? If you don't want to read this letter, I'll leave! I'll bring the letter back to Master later. "
It wasn't clear whether Long Fei Ye heard her, but he was currently leaning lazily against a high pillow as he flipped through the pages of the Annals of the Seven Noble Families.
Han Yunxi grew angry as she narrowed her eyes at Duanmu Yao. This woman is obviously using the old Kenzō to threaten Long Fei Ye!
"Who said Long Fei Ye doesn't want to read this letter? You're the one who won't give it to him! Miss Duanmu, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning for lying in broad daylight? "Han Yunxi Coldly asked.
She's cursing me again!
Duanmu Yao's rage boiled in her organs. She wanted nothing more than to curse her back, but for the sake of filing a complaint and not leaving any evidence behind, she held back.
She took a deep breath before asking, "Han Yunxi, you're a woman. Can't you talk things out properly? Why must you curse people? "
Han Yunxi smiled and tilted her head to ask the driver, "Did this princess consort curse people?"
Uncle Gao immediately shook his head. Han Yunxi then looked at Mu Ling'er, but before she could speak, Mu Ling'er ran over and asked, "Han Yunxi, are you cursing people?"
Han Yunxi was very satisfied and said to Uncle Gao, "Here, you should learn more from Miss Ling'er in the future."
Inside the carriage, Long Fei Ye was focused on the biography. His lips silently curved upwards … In the end, he still paid attention to her every word and action.
Duanmu Yao was so angry that she almost cried. She couldn't hold it in any longer and cursed, "Han Yunxi, you're the one who's not human! Don't go too far! You have no right to interfere in the matters between me and my senior brother. Get out of this princess' way right now! "
This princess?
It had to be said that Duanmu Yao's tone and arrogant expression were nothing like the princess of a large country. Instead, she was more like a spoiled little princess from a small country.
Whether it was the eldest princess or the little princess, she had long lost her noble status.
"If this princess consort remembers correctly, you've already been banished from the Western Zhou imperial family. You colluded with the prince of Western Zhou's enemy, which is tantamount to treason. Duanmu Yao, you don't even have the most basic principles of being a person. You don't even have the basic responsibilities of a child. Don't you feel embarrassed when you mention the word 'princess'? "
Han Yunxi lectured seriously, "A noble status is both an honor and a responsibility. It's not something to be flaunted, it's something to be protected with all your might! Duanmu Yao, if you're still human, you should hurry up and bury your mother. "
Han Yunxi didn't casually curse Duanmu Yao as' not human '!
She would never use such vulgar words casually.
Empress Xue had been kidnapped, then assassinated in the Chu Clan barracks. Because Duanmu Yao didn't believe in the assassination, she used Celestial Mountain's influence to pressure the Chu Clan and Ning Cheng into investigating the matter. Thus, Empress Xue's body was still lying in the Chu Clan barracks, unable to be buried.
Long Fei Ye had sent men to assassinate her. From Long Fei Ye's standpoint, it didn't count for much. In the conflicts of the world, a general's success was built on the bones of ten thousand men. There was no such thing as a power struggle that didn't involve sacrifice or bloodshed.
But Duanmu Yao was Empress Xue's own daughter. From her standpoint, Empress Xue's death was tragic. She should be more anxious than anyone to find out the truth and bury her mother in peace.
But not only did she have the time to meddle in Cang Qiuzi's affairs with the Tang Clan, but she even had the time to block Long Fei Ye's carriage and fight over his affections!
Han Yunxi wasn't insulting her by calling her 'not human'.
Duanmu Yao's soft spot had been jabbed, and her heart felt like it had been kicked.
She'd lost her status as princess and the mother who doted on her most. How could she lose her senior brother as well?
She wasn't stupid and knew his ambitions. One day, Celestial Mountain would be his. Master was old and would retire into seclusion eventually.
If she lost him as well, she'd be left with nothing.
"You don't need to meddle in Western Zhou's internal affairs! Han Yunxi, who do you think you are? So what if I lose my status as a princess? I'm still better than you. What right do you have to criticize my birth as a mere daughter of the first wife? "Duanmu Yao demanded.
How would Duanmu Yao feel if Han Yunxi's origins were exposed one day?
Han Yunxi was too lazy to comment on Duanmu Yao's origins. Cold laughter rang out. "Duanmu Yao, this wangfei has no interest in your affairs. I only want to tell you … a good dog doesn't block the way! Scram! "
Duanmu Yao was cursing her with every sentence!
"Han Yunxi, you're the dog!" Duanmu Yao raged.
"Are you going to scram or not?" Han Yunxi grew impatient.
"Senior Brother, are you sure you don't want this letter? Senior Brother, I'm injured. Master asked you to treat me. "
Duanmu Yao decided to reveal the contents of the letter. She waited for Han Yunxi to reply on Long Fei Ye's behalf. As soon as Han Yunxi said 'no', she'd leave immediately.
She'd write a letter to complain that Han Yunxi was blocking her senior brother and that Han Yunxi wanted to kill her!
Han Yunxi wouldn't fall for her trap so easily. She jumped off the carriage and walked up to Duanmu Yao. "Of course he wants it. Give it to me!"
"Master said that it must be given to senior brother himself. Han Yunxi, you don't have the right to touch my master's letter!" Duanmu Yao said Coldly.
"I'm Long Fei Ye's official consort. If I don't have the right, do you? Are you going to give it to me or not? "Han Yunxi's voice was gloomy as she issued an ultimatum.
"No!" Duanmu Yao blurted out.
Han Yunxi's eyes flashed craftily before she ordered, "Duanmu Yao secretly took Kenzō's letter. Someone come, steal it for this wangfei!"
Duanmu Yao gave a start. She was clearly plotting against Han Yunxi, so why was she being accused of such a huge crime?
Before Duanmu Yao could retort, Chu Xifeng led a group of men to surround them. He was an experienced man and didn't waste words before attacking!
Of course, he couldn't beat Duanmu Yao alone, but he'd brought 10 Shadow Guards with him to protect His Highness from the shadows. Even if they couldn't beat Duanmu Yao, they could still steal the letter from her hands!
With Chu Xifeng and 11 Shadow Guards attacking at the same time, Duanmu Yao had to defend herself even if she didn't want to fight! Soon enough, she was embroiled in a melee.
Han Yunxi sat back in her carriage. She could play with Duanmu Yao with her needles now, but she hadn't done so in the past. She had to prevent Duanmu Yao from tattling to Kenzō.
Although she wouldn't try to curry favor with Kenzō on purpose, she couldn't afford to offend the man, much less give Duanmu Yao something to use against her. Kenzō was Long Fei Ye's master, after all. She hated seeing Long Fei Ye in a difficult position.
Han Yunxi watched the fight with narrowed eyes, lost in thought. At this moment, someone suddenly handed her a cup of tea.
The people inside didn't speak, and neither did Han Yunxi. She only smiled soundlessly as she accepted the tea and slowly sipped it.
Tea personally brewed by His Highness Duke of Qin was truly delicious.
With great difficulty, Duanmu Yao finally found an opportunity to divert her attention and look over. Just in time to see this scene, she suddenly forgot to resist and stopped her sword to stare blankly.
Seeing this, Chu Xifeng rushed over to snatch the letter, giving Duanmu Yao a fright. She stuffed the letter into her robes and threw caution to the wind. Glaring hatefully at Han Yunxi, she said, "I'm not giving it! Han Yunxi, if you have the skills, come and take it! "
Chu Xifeng was floored by the sight! How … how am I supposed to snatch it from her?!
Duanmu Yao was certain that Chu Xifeng and the rest wouldn't dare to touch her. Only Han Yunxi could.
She hadn't trained her swordsmanship for nothing after all. Even when facing off against 11 Shadow Guards at once, Han Yunxi still couldn't get close to her!
Chu Xifeng looked at Han Yunxi awkwardly, unsure of what to do.
Han Yunxi slowly finished her tea and grinned. "Ling 'er, go!"
Her smile was full of meaning, but it wasn't clear whether Mu Ling 'er understood …
