Chapitre 791: Chapter 1145 (Not Leaving)
Chapter 1145 (Not Leaving)
"Long live the Empress." The palace maids immediately knelt down with fear, while Yi Yi glanced up at Qian Yuqing, still having some goodwill towards her.
Struggling to bow towards Qian Yuqing with all her strength, that action was heart-wrenching to watch...
Ye Yuanqing already sensed that this beaten palace maid was indeed Yi Yi.
Indeed beautiful, no wonder Little Tian would like her, but... how did she end up being beaten like this...
"What's going on!" Qian Yuqing coldly demanded.
The palace maids looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.
At this moment, Yi Yi weakly said, "Empress, it's because I didn't do my job well, so I was punished."
The palace maids breathed a sigh of relief, considering her sensible for knowing to plead for us. Otherwise, we'd have beaten her to death!
Qian Yuqing was very angry, and she raised her palm.
Slap, slap, slap!!!
Several palace maids suddenly felt pain on their faces, and they were slapped away, falling to the side and wailing.
"Get lost!" Qian Yuqing coldly shouted.
The palace maids knelt down, enduring the pain. "Empress, have mercy."
"Get out!"
The palace maids felt a glimmer of joy, but they didn't expect Yi Yi to have the Empress backing her! She had such powerful support!
Looks like they'll have to be more careful in the future!
The palace maids obediently retreated.
Qian Yuqing walked up to Yi Yi and helped her up gently. "Are you alright?"
"Empress, I'm fine." Yi Yi forced a small smile.
Qian Yuqing directly rolled up Yi Yi's sleeve, revealing the horrifying red marks, shocking to the eyes!
And it was the same on her delicate shoulders! Qian Yuqing directly lifted Yi Yi's clothes, revealing a series of gruesome wounds on her fair back, the skin torn!
Qian Yuqing felt she should have killed those women just now! They were so cruel!
Ye Yuanqing stood silently beside, not saying a word, but her eyebrows were tightly furrowed. She never imagined that the girl Little Tian liked would be subjected to such abuse here!
"Yi Yi..." Qian Yuqing couldn't bear it, deciding to have a good talk with Ye Hua tonight. Yi Yi was definitely not a spy. If she hadn't come today, Yi Yi might have been beaten to death by these palace maids!
"I'm really fine." Yi Yi squeezed a gentle smile and lowered her clothes.
Qian Yuqing directly released a white light, instantly healing Yi Yi's wounds. "You've suffered."
Hearing these words, Yi Yi's grievances welled up inside. She wasn't afraid of being beaten or mocked, but... she was afraid of being cared for. Tears streamed down her delicate cheeks.
Qian Yuqing also felt heartache, gently embracing Yi Yi. "Alright, don't cry..."
Now even Ye Yuanqing was starting to doubt. Could such a woman be a spy?
So either she's really good at acting, risking her life as a spy, or she's been wrongly accused. But from the current situation, it does seem a bit like a wrongful accusation.
If I hadn't come today, it would have been normal for her to be beaten to death. How could she have known I'd come back?
"Yi Yi, why not leave? Don't wait any longer, I'll help you leave," Qian Yuqing said softly. Waiting like this, you'll end up dead.
Yi Yi shook her head and whispered, "Empress, I won't leave."
"Why? If you keep going like this, something bad might happen."
"I don't want to see the Empress being punished because of me. I'm guilty, so these punishments are deserved." Yi Yi actually didn't want others to be harmed because of her.
If the Empress helped her, the Emperor would definitely hold her accountable. Just because of her... it wasn't worth it.
And she was still waiting for an explanation, even if it took forever.
"You silly girl, why do this to yourself?" Qian Yuqing gently stroked Yi Yi's hair. Can't you think about yourself?
At this moment, Ye Yuanqing, who was standing nearby, spoke up, "Yi Yi, do you really like Little Tian?"
Yi Yi looked up at Ye Yuanqing, her eyes filled with confusion.
"I'm Ye Juetian's elder sister," Ye Yuanqing added.
Yi Yi suddenly felt scared, probably because of Ye Hua. She felt that this elder sister might not be easy to talk to either.
Qian Yuqing could feel Yi Yi trembling, realising that Yi Yi was truly afraid of Ye Hua, and even assumed that she was similar to Ye Hua just because she was his sister.
"Yi Yi, there's no need to be afraid."
Qian Yuqing's words were effective. In such a palace, Yi Yi only trusted Qian Yuqing.
Even in Yi Yi's heart, she wasn't sure whether to trust Ye Juetian.
Ye Yuanqing sighed inwardly, not knowing what to say.
Yi Yi took a while to calm down. Her emotions had been quite turbulent just now. After all, Yi Yi was also an ordinary person, not made of iron, and had emotions too.
"Empress, is Ye Ye going to get married?" Yi Yi asked in a low voice, her disappointment evident.
Qian Yuqing sighed softly. "Yes, very soon."
Yi Yi bit her lip tightly. "Ah."
"Yi Yi, take it easy. Don't do anything foolish, alright? I'll think of a way for you." Qian Yuqing advised, fearing that Yi Yi might not be able to handle it and all Little Tian's efforts would be in vain.
Looking at Yi Yi's lifeless appearance, Qian Yuqing wanted to tell her that Little Tian got married to save her life...
But Qian Yuqing was afraid that if she told Yi Yi about this, she might have even more terrifying thoughts, which would be more troublesome later on.
But if she didn't tell Yi Yi, would she just let Yi Yi stay sad like this forever? It was really a dilemma.
"Empress, you can rest assured, I won't do anything foolish. Please don't..." Yi Yi didn't finish her sentence, but Qian Yuqing knew what she wanted to say. There was hardly any room for Ye Hua to change his mind on this matter, especially since it involved his mother. It touched on something very sensitive to Ye Hua.
Qian Yuqing straightened Yi Yi's clothes and then said coldly towards the woodshed, "If any of you dare to bully anyone again! There will be no mercy! No one can save you!"
The palace maids trembled when they heard this.
Qian Yuqing couldn't stay too long either. If Ye Hua heard about this, he would definitely criticise her again.
Now Ye Hua's mood wasn't good to begin with.
Leaving the woodshed, Qian Yuqing asked, "Yuanqing, do you think Yi Yi looks like a spy?"
"No," Ye Yuanqing shook her head. This was based on a woman's intuition, as they were only seeing the surface for now.
"But Ye Hua is convinced."
Ye Yuanqing said softly, "After all, Yi Yi is the prime suspect, and wasting the Spirit Spring is an indisputable fact."
"Yeah, if Yi Yi hadn't wasted the Spirit Spring, maybe things wouldn't have turned out like this," Qian Yuqing sighed softly, worrying about her mother on one hand and Yi Yi on the other. Wasn't there a way to have the best of both worlds?
Inside the woodshed, Yi Yi sat on a nearby stone stool, taking out the lollipop Ye Zizi had given her and putting it in her mouth.
