"My Ye Family has truly done wrong, to have produced such a group of unfilial descendants!"
Thinking of this, the Old Master also had an angry and sorrowful expression. Everything was going well. If Ning Wang were to marry Ye Jinxiu, the Ye family would naturally benefit from it. However, the unfilial Ye Jingru was stupid and vicious. He actually did such a thing behind the scenes.
But in the end, it was all Ye Shisui's fault in the beginning. It was he who had neglected his concubine and killed her first, causing Ye Jinsu to resent him from the bottom of her heart. Once again, he was blind and foolish. He doted on and doted on Ye Jingru, causing her to become as good-natured as she was now. Currently, the two remaining bloodlines were killing each other. They were both children of the Ye Clan, how could he continue watching?
"It's up to you. Ye JinRu won't be able to protect herself. You should send her off on her final journey." With that, the Old Master waved his hand and left with his head lowered.
What was all this!
Ye Shisui sat on the spot, unable to calm down for a long time.
How could he face this ridiculous and tragic situation? One of his daughters had forced him to kill another. Ye Shou was extremely saddened and grieving. He got up from the ground and staggered out of the room.
If Ye Jinsu was here, he could still plead with her.
Now, Ning Wang wanted him to complete the task before Ye Jinsu returned. Obviously, he didn't want to give him any chances.
He had no choice.
Ye Shisui went back to his room rather sloppily. It was a long time before he called the steward.
"Send it over." Ye Zheng held a handful of white silk in his hand. This was the last honor Ye Zizai could give him.
It was snowing again.
It had snowed a few days ago, and now it was snowing again. When the warm weather finally cooled down, Ye Jinsu's courtyard was filled with coal. Ye Jinsu had been practicing her swordsmanship for the past few days and could not help but feel cold.
According to Meng Lan, this soft sword had the effect of strengthening the body even if it wasn't used. Presumably, Ning Yunyin had also noticed this layer, which was why she had specially given him the flexible sword. Thinking of this, Ye Jinsu couldn't help but smile.
She originally had a good foundation, but after eating the tonics and practicing the sword every day, she felt much more comfortable.
The maidservants outside came in with a lot of fresh charcoal. This was the first time Ye Jinxiu had seen so many servants in the prince's mansion. Previously, she thought that Ning Yunyin was afraid that Ning Xuemo would feel awkward, so she would try her best to keep fewer people by her side.
Now that there were only one or two people who could not carry the new coal, they had to use more people.
When these people passed by Ye Jinsu, they all lowered their heads, not even sparing a glance at her. Ye Jinxiu had a special status. She lived next door to Ning Yunyin and received excellent treatment, but she had no status. Ning Yunyin also wouldn't stay with her.
Most of the people in the mansion didn't even know Ye Jinsu's identity.
This was the easiest way to arouse suspicion, and the easiest way to arouse criticism.
Seeing these people act this way, Ye Jinsu couldn't help but sigh in her heart. The people of the palace were indeed different. If they were in another house, their tongues would have been chewed off long ago, and even Ye Jinsu's spine would have been poked to pieces.
This was probably what Ning Yunyin had instructed her to do.
The leading servant girl walked over, holding a tray in her hand and handed it to Ye Jinsu, "Your highness, you were afraid that Miss's hands would be cold, so you sent someone to ease a piece of good warm jade. "It's warm in winter and cool in summer. It's most suitable for warming your hands in winter. Young miss can play with it."
In the tray was an oval piece of jade. In the middle of winter, when the snow was drifting, it seemed to emit waves of heat.
Ye Jinxiu was a little surprised, and she reached out her hand to hold the jade.
It was really warm, and it felt warm to the touch. The temperature was just right. Moreover, the size was just right for Ye Jinxiu to hold. Even if it were slightly larger and smaller, it wouldn't be comfortable for her to hold it.
Ye Jinsu was a little surprised, but when she looked up, she found that this young maid was the one who served Ning Yunyin. She even took the handkerchief and wiped off her sweat.
Pressing his lips together, Ye Jinsu asked, "Are you a maid serving by the prince?"
Xiu'er nodded and replied, "Yes, Xiu'er is the same as big sister Meng Lan. She has served the Prince since she was young."
It was just that Meng Lan had a talent for medical skills and had been nurtured by Ning Yunyin. She was rather ordinary, an ordinary maidservant. However, she felt that there was nothing wrong with her.
Ye Jinxiu's eyes darted around. Serving him since he was young, wasn't this the same as being a childhood sweetheart?
"Then you must be someone close to the prince." Ye Jinxiu said without batting an eyelid.
Xiu Er looked at Ye Jinsu with some suspicion. She felt that there was something weird with her words, so she could only lower her head and speak, "This servant is only a maidservant beside the prince. I don't dare to call myself that."
There didn't seem to be any problems.
Ye JinSu bit her lips. She realized that her actions right now were a bit stupid, but she still couldn't control herself. So she spoke again, "Then do you know if the prince has ever brought other women into the mansion?"
Xiu'er was startled for a moment. As a daughter, she quickly understood what was going on.
Regarding the identity of this young miss, it was not as if there were no conjectures between the servants. However, the prince strictly forbade people from talking too much. They could only guess in their hearts. She could tell that the prince had a soft spot for Ye Jinsu and had never looked down on her either.
Of course, they had to serve those whom Ning Yunyin cared about well.
Now that Ye Jinsu had asked this question, Xiu'er finally understood and smiled, causing her to feel a little awkward. He made it seem as if he valued Ning Yunxiao greatly. What did it have to do with her who he wanted to take?
"I was just casually asking …" Ye Jinxiu had tried to make up for her loss, but she didn't know it was already too late.
Xiu'er originally wanted to say that she did not, but Yu Family's young miss had indeed stayed here before. Xiu'er could only honestly say, "Before, Yu Family's young miss had stayed at the mansion."
Ye Jinsu's expression froze and she couldn't help clenching her fists tightly. Her expression instantly turned cold.
Seeing that, Xiu'er quickly added, "However, Miss Yu lives in the guest room in the north wing, and Prince has never stepped into the north wing. Please do not worry, Miss."
The north wing was quite far from Ning Yunyin's courtyard, which was separated by an artificial lake.
In comparison, Ye Jinsu lived next door to Ning Yunyin, and she was treated much better than Yu Yao'er. Not to mention that Ning Yunyin had only stayed a night and was forced to stay by the Grand Princess.
Ye Jinsu relaxed her brows for a moment, but she still couldn't help but frown.
She remembered that once such a royal and grandson aristocrat reached adulthood, even if they didn't get married, they would still have a few concubine girls in the mansion. Although it was rumored that Ning Yun didn't get close to women, it was still just a rumor.
It was rumored that Ning Yunxiao had no intentions of showing any coldness on his face. Who would have known that he was actually a shameless person?
Ye Jinsu gnashed her teeth in her heart. She could not help but think in a bad way, so she said, "Then your Prince … Do you have any maids waiting on you every day? "
