Chapter 414 Beauty
"A book? Is it the book about strange tales that you gave me before?"
"Recently, because I have just been promoted to the Supreme level, and because I did not achieve this through my own cultivation, but directly through the power of the Heavenly Spirit Pearl, I am still not able to control the spiritual power in my body well, nor can I use some spells properly."
"With Ye Qinghao's accident, I've been really busy with everything, and I haven't had time to read that book."
Ye Qing'an was telling the truth. Yi Moxu stared at Ye Qing'an for a while before suddenly letting go of her hand: "The story in that book is quite interesting. Qing'an can take a look when she has nothing to do."
"understood."
Yi Moxu raised his eyes, his gaze falling on Ye Qing'an's eyes: "The world is about to descend into chaos. As the saying goes, troubled times breed heroes. I wonder who will be able to stand out in this chaotic world."
Ye Qing'an chuckled lightly: "Heroes and villains, those are all men's business. What do they have to do with us women?"
"What I seek is nothing more than to be able to live without being dependent on others, to be able to protect myself and the people I care about with my own strength, and to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain, whether in times of chaos or prosperity."
Yi Moxu didn't know whether he believed it or not, he just lowered his eyes and smiled, "It's good."
After saying that, he took Ye Qing'an's hand again and gently kissed it.
Ye Qing'an's heart skipped a beat, and she stared fixedly at Yi Moxu.
"I'll probably be a little busy in the coming days and may not have time to visit you. Please be careful."
Ye Qing'an responded.
Yi Moxu then released his hand: "Go out, the guests should be arriving one after another."
Ye Qing'an nodded, lifted her foot and walked outside, but stopped abruptly at the door.
As Yi Moxu had said, he would send some people to protect her before he left.
When Shen Qingdai brought the people from Huohuang Pavilion to look for her before, it's unknown whether the people from Lihuo Pavilion saw her, or how many they saw...
However, it doesn't matter how much he knows.
However, there are some things she can't hide forever.
Thinking this, Ye Qing'an stepped out the door.
Rouxi was still waiting outside the door. When she saw Ye Qing'an come out, her gaze fell on Ye Qing'an's wrist, and a smile flashed in her eyes: "This bracelet fits Miss Ye perfectly."
"Yes, it suits me quite well."
Ye Qing'an narrowed his eyes and headed towards the main hall.
As soon as I stepped outside the main hall, I could faintly hear voices coming from inside.
"Her Highness the Imperial Concubine has been living a secluded life these past few years, and Yunyue hasn't seen her for a long time. But even after all this time, Her Highness the Imperial Concubine is still as young and beautiful as ever."
A soft, sweet voice rang out in the hall, followed by Consort Lan's laughter: "It seems that the Lady of the Marquis is still good at teaching. Yunyue is still as good at talking as before, able to make people happy."
"You flatter me, Consort Lan. This child is always chattering away, it's giving me a headache."
"Isn't it good to have something to argue about? I've always hoped to have a daughter. Girls are so cute and adorable. I can make pretty dresses for her and hear her call me 'Mother' in her soft, sweet voice..."
Consort Lan smiled and said, "It's a pity I don't have that blessing."
The voice that came to mind next sounded somewhat familiar; it was Li Siya.
“Prince Rui is already over ten years old. In a few more years, he will be old enough to be married. At that time, we can bring back a beautiful little princess for the Imperial Concubine.”
"We don't know how long we'll have to wait."
Ye Qing'an stood outside the door. Consort Lan seemed to sense something, turned her head and glanced at the side door of the inner hall, and couldn't help but laugh: "Come here quickly."
"Who is the Imperial Concubine calling? Her tone is different. Could it be that the Imperial Concubine is hiding someone in her palace?" someone laughed and teased.
"Yes," Consort Lan said with a smile, "Is she hiding someone, and a beauty at that?"
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes, smiled, and walked out.
As soon as he stepped outside, Ye Qing'an caught a glimpse of several familiar faces in the hall out of the corner of his eye.
Li Siya was there, and Gu Xiang was there too...
Upon seeing Ye Qing'an, the two men's expressions immediately changed.
"Your Highness, please don't tease me."
Consort Lan smiled and took Ye Qing'an's hand: "I wasn't joking. Let everyone see, let everyone judge, isn't she a beauty?"
"She is indeed a beauty." Some people who had never seen Ye Qing'an before said, "But this beautiful young lady looks unfamiliar. I wonder which family she belongs to?"
The man spoke with a hint of anticipation, after all, most of the noble families in the city were quite familiar with each other, so how could someone who had never met before be the daughter of a wealthy family?
I don't know where it came from, but it's amazing that Consort Lan values it so much.
"Oh... this is the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Ye's household." Consort Lan said with a smile, "I was not in Wangjing City for a few years and have only been back for a few months, so I may not have met many people. However, I was in meditation at the temple and almost lost my life. She saved me, so she is my savior."
"Ah...so you're the young lady from Lord Ye's family."
The people in the hall looked at each other, exchanging glances.
The reputation of that person from the Ye family is quite renowned.
I never expected that the infamous Miss Ye would be so lovely.
"I heard that Lord Ye has encountered some trouble? While fighting that gluttonous monster, he fell into the vicinity of the Death Waterfall in the middle of the Monster Forest? I wonder how Lord Ye is doing now? Is there any news?"
Consort Lan patted the chair beside her, and Ye Qing'an sat down. This action aroused envy among many people.
"There's still no news." Ye Qing'an shook her head, her face calm. "However, the Emperor has already dispatched three thousand elite troops to the Demon Beast Forest to search for Father's whereabouts. I think Father is a lucky man and will surely be safe."
"That's natural." Consort Lan nodded gently.
Upon hearing this, Li Siya, standing to the side, was filled with smugness.
Ah……
Even though the Prime Minister is in trouble now, this woman is still so arrogant.
Li Siya's eyes were full of disdain: "Prime Minister Ye has already encountered trouble, yet Miss Ye still has the mood to dress up so beautifully and go out for a walk. If it were me, I would definitely be so sad that I couldn't sleep or eat."
Ye Qing'an raised her eyes: "Father has only been missing temporarily. Who said something must have happened?"
"Before Father went to conquer the Taotie, he specifically gave me the family head's seal. He told me that if anything happened, I should exercise the power of the family head on his behalf and stabilize the Ye family. It is precisely because Father is now missing that I should not collapse in despair. If I were to become despondent, then something really would have happened."
"The patriarch's seal?" Ye Qing'an's words shocked everyone in the hall.
How can it be?
Ye Qing'an is a woman.
Moreover, she's a notorious woman whose reputation is practically ruined.
How could Prime Minister Ye possibly hand over the family seal to her?
Just then, an announcement came from outside: "Consort Jing has arrived..."
