My Princess Holds Superpowers Chapter 388 - 388 388 was deceived

Chapter 388: 388 was deceived Chapter 388: 388 was deceived Having returned to the inn, Ye Jiu looked at Guard Si Nan after dismounting from the carriage, “I appreciate the trouble Guard Si Nan took for today’s matters.”

“Miss Ye is being courteous.” Si Nan replied in a by-the-book manner, “My master has said if Miss Ye ever encounters any difficulties, you may seek help at the War King Residence at any ti.”

Ye Jiu smiled, “Ye Jiu is thankful for the Prince’s concern, but it is really not convenient for to visit at the mont. Please convey my thanks to the War King on my behalf, Guard Si Nan.”

“If Miss Ye has no other matters, then Si Nan shall take his leave first.” Si Nan bowed.

Ye Jiu thought for a mont and still asked, “May I know if Guard Si Nan has any idea why my fourth brother has ended up in his current state?”

If it were simply a matter of running out of silver and ending up in a beggar’s den, Ye Gaosheng wouldn’t inexplicably have lost a leg, nor would he have dodged and hidden from his own sister, unwilling to recognize her.

For him to beco what he is today, sothing significant must have happened that not only caused physical harm but also emotional harm. It made him afraid to return ho, afraid to face his family. That is why he was hiding in a beggar’s den, wishing to be left to his own devices.

But, what could make Ye Gaosheng feel such guilt towards his family?

With a quick shift of thought, Ye Jiu had a suspicion.

The only business the family had was selling soap. It was probably because of this that Ye Gaosheng had fallen to such a state.

Moreover, Ye Gaosheng often sought her out. He wouldn’t have revealed the family’s soap-making business without good reason.

Could it be… Liu Yunqing?

Their entire family lived in Shuangxi Town, and the soap had always been supplied only to Huarong Pavilion. The soap business was stable without any trouble arising in town.

However, Ye Jiu had not forgotten that when she and Ye Gaosheng had gone to sell the soap, they encountered Liu Yunqing, the young proprietor from the capital city, at Huarong Pavilion.

Now that Ye Gaosheng had fallen into trouble in the capital city, Ye Jiu couldn’t help but recall the ti when Liu Yunqing had shown interest in the Soap Formula.

Still, Liu Yunqing appeared to be a decent person, and his attitude while doing business was also good. It didn’t seem like he would forcibly take the formula, did it?

As the saying goes, “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” Coupled with Ye Gaosheng’s miserable situation, Ye Jiu could not help but have her doubts.

Ye Jiu had only been speculating, but who would have guessed that Si Nan’s words would actually confirm her suspicions.

“The matter concerning your brother was actually due to being deceived by soone…” Si Nan started to speak slowly.

He had already learned from his informants about everything Ye Gaosheng had gone through, and it indeed had dramatic twists.

It was also from Si Nan’s account that Ye Jiu ca to know.

Originally, her fourth brother had hurried all the way to the capital city to find her. By chance, he ran into Liu Yunqing from Huarong Pavilion. Wandering aimlessly in search of her, he naturally sought help upon seeing an acquaintance.

Since the soap business had always been good, Liu Yunqing gave face to her fourth brother and even introduced him to the Liu Family.

Later on, the Liu Family set their sights on the Soap Formula, but Liu Yunqing, being a man of integrity, did not agree with their forceful and greedy thods.

Subsequently, Liu Yunqing left the capital city for so matter, which now seed more like soone had sent him away. Thereafter, to get news about herself, her fourth brother began to interact with the Liu Family.

The Liu Family shalessly lied, stringing her fourth brother along with her news, saying she had been sold into a Brothel and that a substantial amount of silver was needed to redeem her.

Thus, her naïve fourth brother was tricked into selling the Soap Formula.
