936 Astonishing (5)

Madam Ye lowered her head and smiled. “That’s hard to say. It depends on what happens to Prince Rui.” Seeing that Ye Maochun did not deny it, Madam Ye felt that she was right and continued, “The emperor and the Lu family have been secretly competing for so many years and have been trying to rope us in these days, but we’re not stupid. Why should we be used by others? Let the emperor and the Lu family fight. Previously, Prince Rui was still around, so we were on the emperor’s side and were happy to be on good terms with him. However, if Prince Rui can’t survive this time… the emperor will eventually lose to the Lu family.”

“Prince Rui is not omnipotent as you think.” Ye Maochun smiled faintly.

“Prince Rui is a capable person.” Madam Ye smiled. “Master, don’t you think so too?”

Ye Maochun paused and looked at Madam Ye meaningfully. “Madam, you always seem to be able to read my mind. However, Madam, do you think Prince Rui can escape the calamity this time?”

Madam Ye thought for a long time before saying, “Unlikely.”

Ye Maochun looked at her.

“Master, do you still remember that two years ago, when Prince Rui just returned to Long Ye, he was also seriously injured at that time. The emperor could hide it from others, but not from us. At that time, we thought that Prince Rui would definitely die. We didn’t know how he got lucky and came back to life. Later, he even turned the table around in the imperial court on his own.” Madam Ye smiled. “But it’s impossible for people to have good luck twice. Last time, he was blessed. This time, who can protect him? Prince Rui is never meant to live thus far. He escaped two years ago, but he won’t be able to escape two years later.”

“Is that so?” Ye Maochun placed a piece on the chessboard and said, “I beg to differ. Two years ago, Prince Rui miraculously survived. It was probably destined that he won’t die so easily. If he can escape two years ago, he can naturally escape two years later.”

When Madam Ye heard that, she was not angry, nor did she refute Ye Maochun. She only said, “Then let’s wait and see.”

Ye Maochun also smiled and placed the last piece. “Madam seems to have lost.”

Madam Ye took a look and said coquettishly, “Master, it’s not right for you to distract me while placing a piece. Let’s play another round.”

Ye Maochun smiled and shook his head. “Another day. I have to test Hongguang’s homework today. It’s almost time.”

Madam Ye quickly said, “Master, in that case, Hongguang’s homework is more important.”

Ye Maochun stood up and left. Madam Ye looked at Master Ye’s departing figure, and her expression gradually turned cold, looking extremely ugly. She said sharply, “He’s just a cripple. So what if he’s knowledgeable? He can only stay at home for the rest of his life!” With that, she swept the chess pieces on the table to the ground and said in a low voice, “He’s exactly the same as that vixen!”

The maids in the room did not dare to move. Everyone knew that Young Master Ye was the one Madam Ye hated the most. Ye Hongguang was born to that concubine and was raised as Madam Ye’s son. He was the only son of the Ye family.

The morning sun shone through the gaps in the branches on the ground, looking like specks of silver. In the dark night, the silver-like sunlight finally chased away the gloom. Although it was only a little, it was enough to make people feel relieved.

Hui Xiang and Ba Jiao stopped in their tracks and turned around to support Shen Miao and Luo Tan, who were still blindfolded. They said to Shen Miao, “Madam, it’s already dawn.”
