The color of the sky became darker and darker. Thick black clouds covered the entire sky. Following the sound of thunder, the sky became really fast!
As the dark clouds thickened and the earth grew darker, it seemed as if night had fallen.
A loud thunderous sound rang out, shaking the entire sky. As the sound lingered in the air, bean-sized drops of rain fell onto the dry ground.
There was another sound of thunder, and a torrential downpour, like ten thousand horses galloping down, was very frightening.
Arriving at the entrance, Ye Qing`er inclined her body as she spoke to the maidservants, "All of you may leave!"
"Yes sir!"
Ye Qing`er's eyes flashed as she looked at the servant girl in the distance. She then pushed open the door and slowly walked in. She then took out a fire piston and lit the candle. At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Aunt Ye is finally back, I've been waiting for so long!" When the third sound of thunder rang out, several bolts of lightning flashed in the sky, and when another flash of lightning lit up the sky, Yun Weiyang's delicate face was faintly discernable amidst the lightning.
"Who is it?" With a shake of her hand, Ye Qing`er's countenance turned pale as she stared in shock at the source of the voice.
Yun Weiyang stood up from her chair and walked over to Ye Qing`er. She picked up the fire piston that fell to the ground and placed it in Ye Qing`er's trembling hands and said softly, "I was just here to see Aunt Ye. I didn't expect that I would actually scare you so much."
An awkward expression of astonishment flashed on her face, as Ye Qing`er gently smiled, "Please take a seat!"
Yun Weiyang did not bother with pleasantries, as with a flick of her skirt, she sat down on a chair, and said faintly: "I don't seem to be surprised at all that I invited Aunt Ye here."
Ye Qing`er raised her brows, staring at the teacups floating in the air, her lips pursed but she didn't say anything.
Yun Weiyang was not surprised by Ye Qing`er's silence. She lowered her eyes and casually said: "Or did Aunt Ye expect me to appear here?"
Finally, the originally silent Ye Qing`er slowly raised her head, looking directly at Yun Weiyang, as she asked: "What do you want to say?"
Leaning back on his chair, Yun Weiyang laughed: "Now is not what I want to say, but what exactly do you want to do?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Staring at the terrifying eyes of Yun Weiyang, Ye Qing`er could not help but feel guilty.
"Is that so?" Yun Weiyang's eyes swept across Ye Qing`er's stomach, and threw out a few words: "Isn't this child Yun Sheng?!"
The cup in her hands slipped, shattering into pieces on the ground. Staring at the broken fragments on the ground, Ye Qing`er's trembling voice revealed her emotions, "You, what nonsense are you spouting!"
Yun Weiyang said softly: "It doesn't matter if Aunt doesn't admit, but whether that man will help you hide this matter is not certain." Staring at Ye Qing`er's increasingly pale face, she laughed and said, "If you think it's okay that I bribed that man, you just have to wait until the child is born and undergo a blood test. At that time, the truth will be revealed."
Looking at Ye Qing`er's trembling shoulder, Yun Weiyang knew that she had poked her opponent's weak spot: "If Yun Sheng finds out that the child is not his, what do you think he would do to deal with you? Five horses dismembered? Traveling the streets? The hack board? "
"Don't say anymore!" Finally unable to endure the pressure anymore, Ye Qing`er abruptly stood up from her chair, excitedly staring at the calm and composed Yun Weiyang, hysterically asking: "What do you want?"
Raising his brows, Yun Weiyang said calmly: "Aunt should sit down first, please don't get too excited."
Staring angrily at Yun Weiyang, Ye Qing`er finally sat back down on her chair. However, at this moment, her face was full of dejection, no longer as radiant as it was before.
Seeing this, Yun Weiyang went straight to the point: "Your goal is nothing more than to have a place in the general's estate, right?"
"How do you know?"
Frowning impatiently, Yun Weiyang said: "You only need to answer my question."
"Yes, you're right!" Since Yun Weiyang had opened the skylight, there was no need for her to hide.
"I can help you conceal the matter regarding this child." Seeing Ye Qing`er's eyes suddenly light up, Yun Weiyang continued: "If you want to control the clan, I can also help you."
"What do you want me to do?" She didn't believe that he would help her for no reason at all.
This Ye Qing`er had some brains left: "I don't need you to do much, it's just that if there is anything that happens in the manor, you have to inform me in time. When I need you to do something, you have to do it with all your strength."
"That's it?" Ye Qing`er's eyes widened in disbelief as she asked.
Nodding his head, Yun Weiyang said lightly: "That's all."
"Alright, just say what you need me to do."
A dim light flashed in his eyes, Yun Weiyang squinted her eyes, looked at the person in front of her, and said in a deep voice: "If you listen to me obediently, I will definitely not treat you unfairly, but if I know what thoughts you have that you shouldn't have, then, I will let you have a taste of my methods, I guarantee that you will live a life worse than death."
Feeling cold sweat dripping down her forehead, Ye Qing`er forced a smile, "I know!" I won't do stupid things. "
Taking out a silver note from his sleeve and placing it on the table, Yun Weiyang said: "This is just a small greeting gift, I believe you'll need it."
Glancing at the number on it, Ye Qing`er was secretly shocked: This Yun Weiyang is so generous! Pushing the banknotes on the table to Yun Weiyang, he said: "This is too much, I cannot take it."
Although she said that she could not take it, Ye Qing`er's grip on the silver notes did not loosen in the slightest. Seeing this, Yun Weiyang laughed: "Aunt, no need to be so polite, it's just a little kindness of mine."
"Then I won't be polite." After saying that, as if afraid that Yun Weiyang would go back on his word, he immediately put the notes back into his pocket.
"It's getting late, I won't disturb your rest any longer." Standing up from the chair, Yun Weiyang blocked Ye Qing`er's movements, saying: "For the sake of avoiding suspicion, it's best if Aunt doesn't send me off."
After returning to her residence, Ina, who had been hiding in the dark, couldn't help but ask, "Miss, do you think that this Ye Qing`er is reliable?"
Stretching his body lazily, Yun Weiyang said in a lazy voice: "As long as Yun Shengli is still alive, this person can still be used."
The next morning, Yun Weiyang wore a long white dress, the wide hem of the dress was embroidered with pink patterns, and her arm was wrapped in a long, purple silk. Her slender waist was tied with a purple brocade belt inlaid with jade. Her black hair was tied with a light purple ribbon. Although it was not made of makeup, it was still elegant and attractive.
Halfway through dressing up, Thousand Shadows walked over and said, "Miss, Imperial Concubine Yu invites you to the palace."
With a slight frown, Yun Weiyang asked doubtfully: "Imperial Concubine Yu?"
Yi Na, who was busy taking care of Yun Weiyang's hair, quickly opened her mouth and said: "Imperial Consort Yu's original name was Yu Panpan, she was the Sixth Prince's mother."
Yun Weiyang nodded as if she had suddenly come to a realization, her expression relaxed.
Seeing that, Qian Ying asked: "Miss, are you not worried? If that Imperial Concubine had any ill intentions towards you, wouldn't your trip be like sending a sheep into a tiger's den? "
Yun Weiyang chuckled as she looked at Yi Na: "It's fine!"
Thousand Shadows sighed. Since Yun Weiyang had already made her decision, there was no point in saying anything more. It would be better for her to use some snacks to protect Miss's safety!
Not long after, the carriage stopped in front of the palace gates. Getting down from the carriage, Yun Weiyang said to Yi Na and Qian Ying, "Wait for me here."
"Yes sir!"
The palace maid who was already waiting at the side saw Yun Weiyang and came forward to ask: "May I ask if you're Yun Weiyang, Missy Yun?"
Nodding his head, Yun Weiyang said lightly: "Yes!"
The palace maid took a bow and said softly, "Please follow me."
On the way, Yun Weiyang surveyed the Imperial Palace's surroundings calmly, and could not help but say that the scenery here was extremely beautiful, but the artificially laid out items, in the end, were a little more stiff, a little less nimble.
Walking into Yonghe Palace and seeing the palace maid who was leading the way, Yun Weiyang raised her eyebrows. She stood silently in the center of the main hall without a single trace of fear or dread on her face.
After about two incense sticks' worth of time, Yun Weiyang finally saw Imperial Concubine Yu walk out of the inner hall. She had pulled the most ordinary bun, a hairpin with a triple-winged feather hairpin, and a silver butterfly as escort. The clothes also deliberately kept a low profile, a new peony jade-green smokestack, a green skirt with loose pink daffodils, and a thin green gauze with golden threads. The flowers were beautiful and the moon was beautiful, causing flowers and flowers to bloom in the water.
Seeing this, Yun Weiyang stepped forward and bowed, and said: "Yun Weiyang greets the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine."
A clear and cold voice came from above, "Stand up!"
"Thank you, esteemed imperial concubine!" Standing up from the ground, Yun Weiyang stood in place with her head down.
"Lift your head and let me take a look!" Imperial Concubine Yu's voice was still as cold as ice.
Letting out a sigh, Yun Weiyang slowly raised her head.
Imperial Concubine Yu, who was sitting on the upper seat, saw Yun Weiyang's face and jumped up from her seat. Her pretty face was also a little twisted as she said in disbelief: "It's you!"
