Chapter 235 The authorities are confused and the onlookers know clearly
After Ye Qing'an walked out of the courtyard, Ye Qinghao called in the butler who had been standing at the door.
After calling him in, he didn't immediately ask the butler about Gu Duo's grave. Instead, he said with a sigh, "It seems that my understanding of this daughter is still not deep enough."
"I always felt that she was different from before, much smarter than before, but I never expected her to be this smart."
The butler nodded: "Although it's clear that the young lady is not very familiar with the affairs of the court, or even the situation in Wangjing City, perhaps because those involved are often blinded by their own perspectives, she seems to have a clearer understanding of many things, and some of her insights are quite astonishing."
"Those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly." Ye Qinghao murmured, repeating it to himself before finally smiling. "Yes, those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly."
“It’s fine.” Ye Qinghao tapped his fingers lightly on the table, the jade thumb ring making a few soft sounds as it struck the surface.
"It seems that listening to her insights from time to time in the future might give me a sense of clarity and clarity."
After Ye Qinghao finished speaking, he went straight to the point: "Alright, tell me, what's the situation?"
“This old servant went to check on Gu Duo’s grave. The grave has been opened, and the coffin has been dug out and opened.”
Ye Qinghao had already anticipated this before the steward spoke, so he wasn't too surprised: "Send more people to stake out various parts of the city and keep an eye on things. If any rumors spread, report them immediately."
After Ye Qinghao finished speaking, he walked out of the study and said, "Have someone help me change my clothes. I need to go to the palace."
Although Jiuxiao was not there, Ye Qing'an had more than just Jiuxiao's eyes in the mansion. As soon as Ye Qinghao left, Zixiao reported to Ye Qing'an: "Master has changed into his official robes and gone out. At this time, he should be going to the palace."
Ye Qing'an replied, "Okay, I understand."
Seeing that Ye Qing'an's expression was indifferent, Zi Xiao glanced at Ye Qing'an several times but ultimately said nothing.
Granny Wei walked in from outside, holding a list in her hand: "Miss, yesterday you asked me to check what items were in the storeroom that could be given as birthday gifts to the Duchess of Yingguo. I've made a list, Miss, please take a look?"
“Okay.” Ye Qing’an reached out and took it, glancing at it: “Let’s go with the Ruyi Guanyin.”
"Yes," Wei Mama replied, then, seeing that Ye Qing'an didn't continue, she couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Miss, is this all you have?"
“One item is enough.” Ye Qing’an placed the list on the table. “After all, I am representing the Ye family to offer birthday greetings. The steward will certainly help prepare the real gifts. Whatever I send is just icing on the cake to express my feelings, just like when I offered birthday greetings to Consort Lan before.”
Ye Qing'an smiled and said, "Besides, the things in our storeroom are either my mother's dowry or gifts from Consort Lan. Although I won't get married and won't use them as a dowry, they are all my own personal savings. How can I just take out a bunch of them and give them away?"
Granny Wei found this very polite: "Indeed."
Granny Wei continued, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. The manor will probably prepare a family banquet for it. There will be no curfew in the city on the day of the festival, so you can go out and have fun after the banquet. Would you like to have a new dress made for Miss to wear on the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"The Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Ye Qing'an murmured, but the first thing she realized after speaking was...
The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month.
The fifteenth of August is the day when Yimo Xuli's fiery eyes flare up again.
Ye Qing'an suddenly came to her senses. Why should she care about Yi Moxu?
If Li Huomou flares up, let him get through it on his own.
“Yes.” Wei Mama, unaware of Ye Qing’an’s thoughts, smiled and said, “Young Master Eleven has probably not yet witnessed the grand Mid-Autumn Festival in the city. When the time comes, Miss can take Young Master Eleven out for a stroll, admire the lanterns, and eat mooncakes.”
"Alright."
Ye Qing'an replied, "Let someone make it."
Ye Qing'an thought for a moment and said, "Since it's the Mid-Autumn Festival, let's have them make it a little more colorful."
"it is good."
It wasn't until midnight that Jiuxiao returned to the Cloud Dreamland.
Ye Qing'an was meditating when Jiu Xiao walked straight over and bowed deeply to her: "Master, don't forget me when you become rich and powerful. You are my master. If you attain enlightenment, my spirit beast can also ascend to heaven. Please don't abandon me."
"speak English."
Jiu Xiao clicked his tongue, already used to Ye Qing'an's indifference: "After you left, Ye Qinghao spoke with the butler. You left me under Ye Qinghao's desk, and I overheard Ye Qinghao's words, which seemed to imply that he wanted to give you an important position."
"Hmm." Ye Qing'an nodded calmly. Her elaborate scheme was naturally aimed at gradually making Ye Qinghao rely on her.
This is all just the result of her planning; everything is going according to her plan.
great.
"Moreover, not long after you left, he entered the palace. He must have said what you told the Emperor. When Ye Qinghao returned, he said that the Emperor believed him and told him to rest assured that if anyone dared to do that, he would definitely help him and stand up for him."
"and then?"
Jiu Xiao shrugged: "Then Ye Qinghao told the butler to go and see that person."
"I don't know exactly who it was, and there was a barrier around the courtyard, so I didn't dare to trespass and came back."
Jiuxiao stared intently at Ye Qing'an: "Master, why don't you go to that forbidden area and wait for them to come to you?"
"Don't go."
Ye Qing'an said without the slightest hesitation: "I've caused such a scene today. Even if Ye Qinghao is going to see Gu Duo now, he will definitely be cautious and on high alert. My cultivation level is not high yet. If I go now, am I going to court death?"
Ye Qing'an said nonchalantly, "You don't need to worry about it. Yi Moxu has definitely sent people to keep an eye on things."
Ye Qing'an said these words almost subconsciously, but after she finished speaking, she noticed that Jiu Xiao's gaze towards her had become somewhat strange.
Ye Qing'an suddenly realized what she had said, feeling annoyed but showing it on her face.
But Jiu Xiao wasn't about to let this opportunity slip by: "See? Yi Moxu and I both said you were paving the way for him, but you stubbornly refused to admit it. Tsk, woman..."
Ye Qing'an lashed out with her whip, but Jiu Xiao dodged it swiftly: "Fine, fine, you dare to do it but not admit it, I won't say anything more. But even if I don't say anything, the facts are the facts, and you can't deny them."
Ye Qing'an sneered: "Get lost."
"Get out of here."
