Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 29
Chapter 29: Ye Qingwan Under House Arrest
Xue Li was planted with the Soul Devouring Curse by Ye Yu, making him Ye Yu’s servant.
As long as Xue Li wants to communicate, he can communicate with Ye Yu through their souls regardless of the distance.
Not all Demon Race methods are unacceptable.
“Something happened? What happened? ” Ye Yu asked, frowning.
In Ye Yu’s memory, it seemed that the Great Yan Dynasty would not have any major actions during this period.
“It’s like this, Ye Qingwan attempted to leave Great Yan yesterday and was brought back and placed under house arrest. I heard that she is suffering greatly now. Should I secretly help her out? ” Xue Li asked.
Mentioning Ye Qingwan, Ye Yu remembered that it should be related to the engagement with the Great Zhou Fourth Prince, Zhou Li.
In his past life, Ye Yu knew that Zhou Li was no good, so when Ye Fan suggested that Ye Qingwan and Ye Qingxuan marry into Great Zhou, Ye Yu directly refused.
Ye Yu in the past was unlike now. Although he didn’t live comfortably, he still stubbornly held onto the position of Crown Prince, and the court ministers were especially loyal to him.
So Ye Yu stopped this matter, but in this life, Ye Yu gave up his position as Crown Prince and was even expelled. It is conceivable that without his intervention, this engagement would naturally be successful.
A few months ago, Ye Fan sent a message back saying this, and he blocked it once.
“No need, let her be. ” Ye Yu said calmly.
Xue Li, hearing this, was completely dumbfounded. He knew how much Ye Yu cherished kinship. For the past year, he had followed Ye Xuan’s arrangements and repeatedly framed Ye Yu.
Ye Yu suffered a lot, yet he remained consistently kind to these people. But now, how could he change so drastically?
“Oh, alright then. ” Xue Li scratched his head. He originally thought he could take the credit for this, but now it seems that’s not the case.
Cutting off contact with Xue Li, Ye Yu smiled and murmured, “Ye Qingwan, in this life, accept the fate that originally belongs to you. ”
After saying that, Ye Yu began to refine pills.
In his past life, he didn’t go to that Secret Realm, he only heard about the situation there, so he still needed to prepare thoroughly.
In addition to the Breaking-miasma Pills, he also needed to prepare some other pills.
With this in mind, Ye Yu took out the Alchemy Furnace from his Storage Ring and began to refine pills.
This time, he wasn’t in a hurry, so Ye Yu didn’t use a Formation, choosing to refine slowly to achieve the highest quality pills.
This refining lasted for two whole days.
During the time Ye Yu was refining pills, Ye Qingxuan and Ye Qingshuang had already returned to the Great Yan Imperial Palace.
Cang Yun had already left, leaving behind a letter asking Ye Qingshuang to handle the Great Yan Imperial Family’s affairs and then go look for him.
Although dissatisfied with Ye Qingshuang, she was still his publicly acknowledged disciple, so he couldn’t completely ignore her. However, he no longer wanted to participate in the affairs of the Great Yan Dynasty.
After paying their respects to Ye Fan, they learned that Ye Xuan was in seclusion and rushed to find Ye Qingwan.
“Second Sister, don’t you feel that there are many more people around Elder Sister’s Palace? And their cultivation bases are not low. ” Arriving in front of the Palace, Ye Qingshuang said in surprise.
Ye Qingxuan frowned upon hearing this, feeling something was wrong. Ye Fan’s gaze towards her just now was also off, but she couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was.
The two walked into the Palace under the watchful eyes of the guards.
The originally magnificent mansion now seemed somewhat cold. The maids and eunuchs had long since disappeared, and apart from some necessary furniture, nothing remained in the Palace.
“Elder Sister, what happened? ” Seeing this scene, Ye Qingwan and Ye Qingshuang were startled and quickly stepped forward to ask.
Ye Qingwan, at this moment, was nowhere near the imperious figure she had been as Regent. Her hair was disheveled, her face was clearly marked with tear stains, and there were even traces of bl00d on her lips that hadn’t been wiped away.
Seeing Ye Qingxuan, Ye Qingwan finally couldn’t help but throw herself into her arms and wept loudly.
Ye Qingxuan and Ye Qingshuang exchanged glances, both bewildered and completely unable to understand the situation before them.
After a while, Ye Qingwan stopped crying, and just as she was about to tell Ye Qingxuan about the marriage, she was interrupted by the two.
“Elder Sister, we need your help to look at something. Ye Qingshuang and I are really confused. ” Ye Qingxuan said.
After saying that, Ye Qingshuang activated the Recording Stone, and the image of the Crown Prince’s East Palace reappeared.
After watching the events between Ye Qingqing and Yan Ji, Ye Qingwan’s eyes widened. She never imagined that things had happened this way.
“Elder Sister, what do you think? Was this carefully planned by Ye Yu, or did we… misunderstand him? ” Ye Qingxuan asked, her eyes anxious, eagerly wanting to hear the answer from Ye Qingwan.
Ye Qingwan also found it difficult to accept the situation in the image for a moment. After pondering for a long time, just as she was about to speak, a voice sounded again from the image.
In the image, a week had passed. Ye Yu’s injuries had healed considerably, but he still looked sickly and was staring intently at the figure in front of him.
The three women were no strangers to that figure. It was Gao Qun, Ye Fan’s personal eunuch.
Gao Qun looked at Ye Yu, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said, “I never imagined that the Great Yan Crown Prince would end up in such a state. ”
“Spit it out,” Ye Yu’s voice was weak, but his tone was extremely cold.
When Ye Yu was first established as Crown Prince, Gao Qun was already Ye Fan’s favored official, and the entire court was already under his control.
The two men had a long period of open and secret struggles, which ultimately ended with Ye Yu’s victory. Gao Qun was forced to leave the center of power and left Great Yan with Ye Fan to travel elsewhere.
Gao Qun chuckled and said, “Your Highness the Crown Prince is still so forceful. According to my nature, I’d really like to kill you now, but His Majesty won’t allow it. This time, His Majesty sent me back to inform you of something. ”
“The marriage between Great Yan and Great Zhou, you need to arrange it properly. ”
As soon as the words fell, not only Ye Yu, but also the three people watching the image were shocked. Ye Qingwan’s face was particularly ugly, “So this was his doing! ”
It could be said that if Ye Yu were standing in front of Ye Qingwan right now, she would have liked nothing more than to tear him apart.
The other sisters also looked grim. A marriage? A marriage with whom? Who was going to get married? They didn’t even know, this scoundrel was so bold!
“Marriage? With whom? ” Just as the three women were filled with indignation, Ye Yu in the image suddenly asked.
“Ye Qingwan, Second Princess Ye Qingxuan, and Great Zhou’s Fourth Prince, Zhou Li. ” Gao Qun said unhurriedly, as if it were an insignificant matter.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingxuan’s face turned pale. She finally understood why Ye Qingwan had become like this! Was the reason actually this?!
“That scoundrel! Doesn’t he know what kind of person Zhou Li is? How could he agree to such an absurd thing! ” Ye Qingshuang also reacted, trembling with anger, wishing to tear Ye Yu to shreds.
But the next moment, Ye Yu said something that none of them expected.
