"Jiujiu, you..." The Crown Prince had a bad feeling in his heart, making him uneasy.
Ye Jiu explained, "Mother’s health has not been good since she returned from praying at the temple, and now she is also pregnant. I am stuck in the palace and cannot leave, and I fear she will let her imagination run wild and scare herself. It’s better to keep this as a backup."
Only then did the Crown Prince take the dicine, feeling at ease at last.
Just a mont ago, it seed as if Ye Jiu was planning sothing, giving him quite a scare.
The night was deeply dark.
Ye Jiu heard a noise by the window and turned around imdiately, just in ti for Ye Bai and Ye Hei to co in.
"You two still know how to co back?" Ye Jiu had already sent them a ssage a few days ago, and with their speed, there was no reason for them to return so late.
Ye Bai casually sat on the bench beside him, "We can’t be blad for that. If bla is needed, it’s because the master’s reputation is too high. A sudden natural disaster struck Hongcheng, which delayed us by two days."
"The people from Hongcheng sought you out?" Ye Jiu, possessing the enormous artifact of the Plane Space, naturally considered the common people of the world while enriching herself.
However, she did not use her own na for these good deeds but had Ye Bai and Ye Hei handle these matters outside.
After all, the fortune foretold by Master Ling Yuan at her birth was already enough to make people wary. If she had such high prestige as well, it was feared the old Emperor would not spare her.
Hearing Ye Jiu’s inquiry, both Ye Bai and Ye Hei nodded, "The flood in Li Town, although the Imperial Court responded promptly, by the ti the disaster relief grain is distributed wave after wave, it is feared most people would have starved to death..."
Indeed, even without the layers of exploitation in the bureaucracy, the procedures from the capital city to Hongcheng are enough to claim most disaster victims’ lives.
After knowing they had taken care of the matters in Hongcheng, Ye Jiu then instructed the next steps of her plan, "Later, first take the matriarch out, and properly arrange the safety of everyone in the Ye Family. Not a single mistake is allowed..."
After speaking, Ye Jiu rembered and hurriedly asked, "By the way, did you bring enough people with you?"
"Yes, we have brought enough, and they are all the best people. Master, rest assured," Ye Hei assured.
"That’s good." Regarding the work capacity of Ye Bai and Ye Hei, Ye Jiu felt relatively assured.
At this mont, Mrs. He, due to her worries, was not sleeping well and was awakened by Ye Jiu in the dark night.
"What’s the matter, dear child?" Mrs. He asked groggily.
"Mother, I’ve already arranged the escape route; you should leave the palace first," Ye Jiu said.
Seeing the two tall n behind Ye Jiu, although their interactions weren’t much, Mrs. He was still familiar with them.
However, she didn’t know exactly what Ye Jiu planned to do or if there would be any danger.
Therefore, Mrs. He couldn’t leave feeling at ease, leaving Ye Jiu alone in this ruthless place.
"Dear child, co with . We don’t need anything else. Let’s return to our hotown, live by farming no matter how hard it gets, instead of living this life of constant fear!" said Mrs. He.
"Alright," Ye Jiu nodded.
Returning to her hotown, she had thought about it too.
Once, when they were poor, she always longed for money and power. But once all of it was in her hands, she realized money and power didn’t necessarily bring happiness. On the contrary, the simple life of the past was what one truly yearned for.
