Arrogant Empress, Come to My Arms - C362
That night, the snow did not stop. It continued to snow for three whole days. The bloody trail was frozen in December and covered with a thick layer of snow.
In just a short three days, there seemed to be no traces at all.
No one brought up that day’s matter again. The imperial court would rest for three days, and everyone would close their doors and not come out. The ladies who escaped in the chaos were frightened out of their wits, while the bold ones didn’t make a single move.
In just a single day, everything had changed dramatically.
Ye Jinsu quietly looked out of the window at the snow. She held the warm Whitey in her hands, her gaze clear and shallow. Meng Lan rubbed her hands together as she walked over from the nearby corridor. Smiling, she said, “The imperial physician showed it to Xiao Hong again today. He said that the wound has recovered quite well. He’ll be alive in a few days.”
Ye Jinsu came back to her senses and frowned, “Tell her to move less. Although the wound isn’t deep, don’t leave any scars.”
Meng Lan nodded and added a coat for Ye Jinsu.
The sound of footsteps came from outside the courtyard. Li De walked in from outside, avoiding the other palace maids in the courtyard. He walked up to Ye Jinsu and spoke softly, “Second Miss, since the emperor has said so, you should be the one to handle it.”
After all, she was his blood sister, and he couldn’t reveal too much about this matter.
Ye Jinsu thought of Ye JinRu’s distorted face that day and stood up after a moment of silence. She said, “I’ll go see her myself.”
Ye Jingru’s was locked in an abandoned dean’s residence, guarded by palace guards. When Ye Jinsu went in, she was sitting in the pond in the yard, dressed in a thin suit.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Ye Jingru turned her head to look in their direction.
Seeing that it was Ye Jinsu, Ye JinRu’s expression suddenly changed, but she immediately calmed down. She sat back down and sneered as she looked at the frozen pond. “Elder sister, with your status, have you come to this place to see me?”
Ye Jinsu looked at her face, which had only lasted for three days. She sneered and said, “I’m not here to see you.”
“It’s for you.”
The expression in Ye JinRu’s eyes changed as she lifted her head to look at Ye Jinsu. Her eyes began to show nervousness and panic.
“What do you mean?”
Ye Jingru laughed dryly and said, “We are sisters, how can you be like this …”
“I know. I was in the wrong before, but little sister was wrong. Big sister, please give little sister another chance …”
After saying that, Ye JinRu knelt down and took two steps towards Ye Jinsu.
Ye Jinsu took a step back, dodging Ye JinRu’s attack.
Her eyebrows knitted together, a wave of impatience rising in her heart. She had really heard enough of Ye Jinru’s wails!
Ye Jinsu’s face darkened. Not wanting to waste any more words with Ye JinRu, he turned around and said, “Let’s do it!”
After he finished speaking, Ye Jinsu left with large strides.
With a loud shout from the courtyard, Ye Jingru struggled madly under the hands of a group of palace maids, “Let go of me! How can you attack me! Father will not agree to it! ”
“Daddy won’t agree …”
Ye Jinsu’s frown deepened. Looking at the expression on the face of Jing De, she turned around and gave a look to the people in the palace.
Ye Jinru’s voice suddenly stopped.
Ye Jinsu loosened her brows and felt her whole body was refreshed.
As expected, without Ye Jinru, he was happier. Ye Jinsu regretted even more now. Why didn’t she get rid of him earlier?
But it wasn’t too late.
When he returned, there was already an extra person in the courtyard. Ning Yunyin was standing in the courtyard, obviously waiting for Ye Jinxiu. Ye Jinsu was surprised for a moment. She raised her head and looked at the sky before walking over and asking, “Why are you here?”
According to the time, wasn’t he supposed to be discussing the late emperor’s funeral with the ministers?
Li De’s expression changed again. He walked up to Ye Jinsu and reminded her in a low voice, “Master, according to etiquette, you should change your way of speaking.”
He took a step back and was about to salute, but was stopped by Ning Yunyin. She then grabbed Ye Jin’s arm and walked into the house, “There’s no one here, there’s no need.”
“Why are your hands so cold?” Ning Yunyin lowered her head to look at Ye Jinsu’s hand and asked.
Ye Jinsu shrugged her shoulders, bent down and picked up the plump and plump little white egg from the ground, and stuffed it into her stomach to warm her hands.
Ning Yun chuckled. She touched Whitey and found that its body was actually quite warm.
“Seems like it’s better than the warm jade I gave you.” Ning Yunliang spoke in a slightly sour tone.
Ye Jinsu raised her eyes to look at Ning Yunyin. He was still wearing his filial piety. His entire body was white, but he looked a lot gentler. It was as if he had turned into the warm and gentle appearance that he had had the first time he saw him.
Ye Jinsu smirked and hugged Lil ‘White, saying, “Yeah, I like Lil’ White the most. I like Lil ‘White the most.”
Ning Yunyin narrowed her eyes slightly. “Like it the most?”
Tsk, I just thought he was warm, but his fox tail was revealed so quickly.
The corners of Ye Jinsu’s mouth curled up as she hugged Lil ‘White and asked, “What else?”
Ning Yunyin secretly gritted her teeth and realized that she had nothing left to say. Recently, Ye Jinsu’s eloquence had grown, and with the help of the palace maids around her, she loved to take advantage of others.
Ning Yunyin’s teeth itched with hatred, but she loved it.
His eyes darkened as his sharp gaze swept over Kindness, who immediately retreated out of fear.
Okay, now it’s just the two of them.
Ye Jinxiu suddenly had a bad feeling about this.
She sat up straight and winked at Ning Yunyin, revealing a pair of delicate and touching eyes.
Ning Yunyin’s expression stiffened. She felt like there was nothing she could do.
Ye Jinsu had been eating him more and more recently.
Seeing that he had succeeded, Ye Jinsu immediately lowered her head and revealed a proud smile. She had discovered this when she was at Uncle Rong’s place.
Ning Yunyin had no choice but to admit defeat.
Helplessly, he sat down beside Ye Jinxiu and handed the item in his sleeve to her.
Ye Jinxiu took it and looked at Ning Yunyin doubtfully.
“Let’s take a look.” Ning Yunyin spoke up.
It was an imperial edict, but Ye Jinsu didn’t know what it was about. She opened it doubtfully, but her gaze froze the instant she saw the contents.
The room fell into a long silence. Ye Jinsu turned her head to look at Ning Yunyin with a trace of surprise in her eyes.
Ning Yunyin wanted to cripple the harem for her?
Ye Jinsu felt that there was something magical about the top of her head.
After a moment of silence, Ye Jinsu finally came back to her senses. She put away the imperial edict and asked, “Are you serious?”
“Jun Wu Yi is lying.”
“What about the court ministers? They won’t agree. ”
“Nine out of ten ministers in the court were severely injured, and they also dragged the few Tangerines away from you. Right now, they are all panicking and suspecting each other.”
“No one is going to go against me at this time of day.”
“…” Ye Jinsu was speechless for a moment.
At that time, she had thought it would be useful to keep them under house arrest while at the same time provoking them. In the future, Ning Yunyin would be able to maintain a balance with the ministers in the imperial court.
He didn’t expect to be of use here.
However …
Ye Jinsu couldn’t help but feel warm in her heart.
The corner of her mouth curled up as she tilted her head to look at Ning Yunxiao. “Since that’s the case, I’ll do as you say.”
