Chapter 295 6 Princes
After the two, one big and one small, reached an agreement, Yi Moxu took Eleven away from the private room. However, when they left, they left two bottles of medicine on the table in the private room. As they went out, they quickly drew a formation with their hands behind their backs.
An array appeared in the room, and almost as soon as a gust of wind blew by, the two medicine bottles on the table disappeared without a trace.
Yi Moxu carried Eleven out the door. Eleven sat on Yi Moxu's shoulders, her eyes fixed intently on the crowds coming and going. She whispered in Yi Moxu's ear, "That guy over there must be someone of high status. Look, he has two maids and six servants behind him..."
Yi Moxu looked up and saw the group of people that Eleven had mentioned.
Yi Moxu suddenly laughed. Eleven's gaze was indeed sharp; that was indeed a person of illustrious status, the Marquis of Hua'an.
“Okay.” Yi Moxu picked up Eleven and Eleven rushed out, heading straight for Marquis Hua’an. After hitting Marquis Hua’an, Eleven fell at his feet.
Marquis Hua'an lowered his head and saw a beautifully sculpted child. He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Whose child is this?"
Eleven gritted his teeth: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I ran too fast..."
After saying that, she quickly turned around and ran back to Yi Moxu.
Yi Moxu placed Eleven on his shoulder again and bowed slightly to Marquis Hua'an, as if apologizing.
"I sprinkled the medicine on his sleeve, that should be fine, right?"
"Ah."
"That's pretty simple." Eleven blinked. "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there's a lantern festival. Many ladies and young women from noble families in the city must be out. I can find more people to drug her, and that way, Mother should be safer."
As Eleven spoke, he suddenly frowned: "But if I drug them like this, will they keep going crazy?"
"No, things will return to normal in two days."
"That's good."
……
While Shiyi and Yimoxu were busy working over there, Ye Qing'an was still on the carriage returning to the Ye residence.
Ye Qing'an frowned. The incident had happened so suddenly that she hadn't had time to sort it out properly.
Now that I've calmed down and thought about it carefully, I feel there are quite a few suspicious points about this matter.
Among them, the most prominent one is the Sixth Prince... Why would he be there?
She had always thought that Liu Xueying was behind this, but now the Sixth Prince was also involved.
How could Liu Xueying possibly get the Sixth Prince to put on such a show for her?
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips, but she knew almost nothing about the royal family of Siyou Kingdom, and she also knew nothing about the identity and background of the Sixth Prince.
Having no knowledge of the Sixth Prince's identity or background, there was no way to speculate on the possible connections between them.
Ye Qing'an leaned against the large pillow, closed her eyes, withdrew her consciousness, and entered the Cloud Dreamland.
Jiu Xiao wasn't particularly surprised to see Ye Qing'an: "I knew you were coming to ask me for help."
"Investigate for me who those two young masters who were with the Sixth Prince before were, and what the Sixth Prince's background is."
Jiuxiao clicked his tongue: "It was prepared a long time ago."
"The sixth prince's mother is Consort Yun, whose given name is Gu Yayun."
"Gu?" Ye Qing'an suddenly looked up: "The Gu family?"
“Yes, Consort Yun, she is the younger sister of Gu Hai, the current head of the Gu family.” Jiu Xiao said with a smug look: “Not only that, I also found out that one of the people who were with the Sixth Prince before was the youngest son of the Gu family, Gu Pan.”
"And the other one is Li Mao, the young master of the Li family."
"The Gu family? The Li family?" Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes; this was quite different from what she had expected.
She had always thought it was Liu Xueying, but none of the three had any connection with Liu Xueying.
No, that's not right either; there is a connection.
After all, Liu Xueying was sent to the Ye family by Gu Duo back then. Gu Duo also had the surname Gu and was a member of the Gu family.
But things have become increasingly complicated and confusing, making it even harder for her to understand.
What exactly is this situation...?
Was this scheme orchestrated by Liu Xueying alone, or were others involved?
Was the appearance of the Sixth Prince, Gu Pan, and Li Mao intentional, or just a coincidence?
Ye Qing'an remained silent and did not speak.
"Is there anything else you want me to investigate? Or perhaps, should I go with Yi Moxu and Eleven?"
Ye Qing'an shook his head: "Tonight's events will surely cause quite a stir. You can go outside and find out what the situation is like."
“Alright,” Jiu Xiao replied, then added, “I have a feeling this whole thing isn’t Liu Xueying’s doing, but then there was that note Liu Xueying gave Ye Feiran…”
"I really don't understand either, but you'll most likely be going to the palace later. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there will be a palace banquet. The security will definitely be very tight. If you go to the palace, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to go with you."
"Don't worry, just be careful. If there's anything really important, I'll use all my intelligence to get it to you."
Ye Qing'an responded with a light nod, glancing only briefly at Jiu Xiao.
Even though it was just a glance, Jiu Xiao froze completely: "No, what do you mean? Do you think I'm not intelligent?"
Ye Qing'an ignored him and left the Dreamland of Clouds directly.
As soon as Ye Qing'an returned to the carriage, she opened her eyes and felt the carriage stop: "Miss, we've arrived at the gate of the manor."
Ye Qing'an replied, "Go and ask if the master has returned to the manor yet."
The coachman responded and hurried to the gatehouse to inquire. After receiving confirmation, he rushed back: "Miss, the gatehouse said that the master went to the palace to attend a banquet and has not yet returned."
"Okay, let's go straight to the palace gate."
The carriage started moving again.
Soon they arrived at the palace gate, where a row of carriages were parked, waiting for the servants of the officials attending the palace banquet.
As soon as Ye Qing'an's carriage came to a stop, the steward came to greet him.
Upon seeing Ye Qing'an step down from the carriage, the steward couldn't help but be taken aback: "Young Miss? What brings you here, Young Miss?"
Ye Qing'an looked at the steward, who seemed to know nothing about the matter.
"Feiran got into trouble and was taken away by the Sixth Prince, who said he would take him to the palace for the Emperor to deal with."
The steward's eyes widened immediately: "Second Young Master? He was taken away by the Sixth Prince? And he's going to be brought to the palace for the Emperor to deal with? What happened to the Second Young Master? Why does he need to disturb the Emperor?"
"It can't be explained in a few words, I need to enter the palace..." Ye Qing'an pursed her lips tightly: "Or, does the steward have a way to send a message into the palace?"
Just as the steward was looking troubled, several palace servants walked out from inside the palace gates. Their eyes fell on Ye Qing'an, and then they walked towards her...
