Chapter 506 Bring him to meet me
Yi Yun Kui was even more surprised: "You released it? Why did you do that?"
Ye Qing'an lowered her head, her hands tightly twisting the embroidered handkerchief in her hands, seemingly very nervous: "The second time the Emperor summoned me, I was only thinking that so many things had happened recently, all because of me. If the Ye family and the entire Siyou Kingdom were implicated because of me, I would never be able to forgive myself. Since it started because of me, I should be the one to end it. So at that time, I didn't think of the matter of Doctor Xu..."
"When I returned to the Ye residence, I remembered it. But there was really nothing I could do about it. I had to go to His Majesty in person and tell him that I had a somewhat ambiguous relationship with a physician in the residence. Even if His Majesty wanted me to enter the harem not because he truly wanted to favor me, the title of concubine still applies. If His Majesty only found out about this after I entered the palace, it would truly be considered a crime of deceiving the emperor."
"So I came up with this plan: to use rumors and gossip to expose these things. In this way, the Emperor will know, and everyone in Wangjing will know. If the Emperor asks, I will answer truthfully. When the Emperor finds out about this, whether he still wants me to enter the palace will be entirely up to him. But in this way, no one will be able to use this as a pretext to attack me or the Emperor in the future."
Ye Qing'an's voice grew even lower: "I know that what I'm doing is a last resort, but I really... have no other choice."
Yi Yun Kui stared intently at Ye Qing An, secretly calculating in his heart that if everything was as Ye Qing An said, then Ye Qing An exposing her weaknesses to the public was indeed an extremely foolish move. However, as she said, by making it known to everyone, others would indeed have no way to use it as a means to attack her afterward.
If you completely expose your shortcomings to others, then your shortcomings will cease to exist.
This approach is a bit too radical; there were actually better ways.
But that's okay too.
Ye Qing'an used such a stupid method, which was full of mistakes. This just shows that although Ye Qing'an is somewhat smart, he is not so smart that he is impossible for others to control or manage.
So much the better.
"Alright, I understand." Yi Yun Kui glanced casually at the musicians playing music not far away: "Is that medical cultivator still at the Ye residence?"
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips and said, "Fei Ran was poisoned some time ago. Xu Yixiu's master is Mr. Qingyuan, who happens to be in Liuyun City. So Xu Yixiu took Fei Ran to Liuyun City to seek medical treatment. However, he should be back tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" Yi Yun Kui toyed with the teacup in his hand: "Then bring him to the palace to see me tomorrow. I am quite curious about this medical cultivator."
Ye Qing'an suddenly raised her eyes, a hint of surprise in them: "Bring...bring him to see the Emperor?"
"Hmm." Yi Yun Kui's lips curled slightly. "What? Is it not allowed?"
Ye Qing'an quickly shook her head: "Yes, this subject will bring him to the palace tomorrow... to pay respects to the Emperor."
Ye Qing'an lowered her head, a dark glint flashing in her eyes. Although she knew that even if Yi Moxu had changed his appearance, Yi Yunkui might still recognize him.
But for some inexplicable reason, she felt a sense of anticipation and a vague excitement.
This father and son must have not seen each other for several years, right?
Although Ye Qing'an didn't know why Yi Moxu had his spiritual power destroyed and his meridians severed by Yi Yunkui and exiled to Qian'an, judging from the irreconcilable differences between Yi Moxu and Yi Yunkui, it must have been a very unpleasant affair.
Six years later, a father and son who are sworn enemies and wish they could kill each other meet in this way. Who knows what kind of sparks will fly?
Ye Qing'an looked on with interest. Interesting, extremely interesting.
Yi Yun Kui had no idea what Ye Qing An was thinking. His gaze was casually fixed on the musician not far away: "There shouldn't be any changes to the matter of accompanying the army, right?"
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Your Majesty, rest assured, there will be no changes to this matter. As I just said, I will absolutely not let this matter affect the Ye family or the stability of the Siyou Kingdom. Since this matter started because of me, it should naturally end with me."
"I will accompany the army to the border and personally bring that Prince Duan back to me, so that I can ask him why he did this."
Yi Yun Kui chuckled, as if he had heard a joke, paused, and then shook his head: "There's no need for such pressure. You just need to go, and I'll find a way to pin everything on the rebels and clear your name of all charges..."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Yi Yun Kui nodded: "Alright, go ahead. Tomorrow, when you receive that physician, bring him directly into the palace."
"Yes." The eunuch led Ye Qing'an away.
After Ye Qing'an left, Yi Yun Kui finally spoke, asking the eunuch beside him, "What was the situation you investigated before? Where did those rumors come from?"
"The rumors about Miss Ye and that healer did indeed originate from the Ye residence, but I have no idea who spread them."
"Has the matter of the medical cultivator been investigated? Is it as she said?"
"Yes." The eunuch nodded and lowered his voice, saying, "That physician is from Lanting Pavilion. I've heard he's quite skilled. Besides enabling Miss Ye to cultivate, he also saved the Prince of Huaiyang who had gone mad with cultivation. It was after saving the Prince of Huaiyang that he was brought into Prime Minister Ye's residence and became a retainer."
"He was... a retainer? Not a doctor?"
The eunuch nodded: "He is a retainer, I'm sure of it, not a doctor."
Yi Yun Kui narrowed his eyes: "That old bastard Ye Qinghao has always been quite cunning. Since he would let that medical cultivator be his retainer, it must be because that medical cultivator has some extraordinary abilities. He's probably not just an ordinary person..."
Yi Yun Kui tapped his fingers lightly on the table: "Let me see for myself tomorrow."
The music was lingering, but Yi Yun Kui frowned slightly: "What is this? It's so soft that it's not inspiring at all. Change it."
The music stopped, and a look of panic flashed across the musician's face before he quickly changed to "Breaking the Enemy's Formation".
As soon as the Broken Formation Melody began to play, Yi Yun Kui was somewhat satisfied. He leaned back, looking languid: "Crown Prince... the Crown Prince has been quite unsatisfactory lately. He doesn't do his proper duties, but instead cultivates his inner furnace and tries to get close to the Supreme One. He's involved in all sorts of such things. If his ambitions become too great, I can't keep him around."
The eunuch behind Yi Yun Kui suddenly raised his eyes: "Your Majesty..."
Yi Yun Kui waved his hand: "I know that they are my sons. I don't want anything to happen to any of my sons, but unfortunately, they always make me angry!"
