Chapter 505 was released by me.
Ye Qing'an stood up and went out of the house, where she saw the steward pacing back and forth in the courtyard.
"housekeeper."
The butler stopped and looked at Ye Qing'an. After a pause, he lowered his voice and said, "Please come to the main courtyard to talk, Miss."
Does moving to the main courtyard to speak mean that Ye Qinghao wants to see her?
Upon arriving at the main courtyard, Ye Qinghao was indeed there.
Have you heard about all those rumors circulating outside?
Ye Qing'an bit her lip and nodded gently: "I just heard the servants in the courtyard report it, but I really don't understand, I don't know who I offended..."
"I've already had people investigate those rumors, and they should be able to find out soon. Don't worry, I will definitely give you a proper explanation for this matter."
Ye Qing'an nodded and took a deep breath: "Yes."
"By the way, I asked you to send a message to Xu Mo, telling him to return to Wangjing. Have you sent the message yet?"
"The message has already been sent out." Ye Qing'an nodded. "He has already set off and should arrive around tomorrow."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Okay, no rush. Rumors need time to spread. I'll have someone cut off those baseless rumors, so they won't have much of an impact."
Ye Qing'an nodded, then said, "I'd like to go and meet Doctor Xu when he enters the city tomorrow."
"go Go."
After Ye Qinghao finished speaking, he looked at Ye Qing'an again: "If the Emperor summons you to the palace and asks about this matter, what should you say?"
Ye Qing'an bit her lip: "If the Emperor asks about this matter, I can only answer the truth. After all, too many people in the manor know about my affair with Doctor Xu. If the Emperor asks, they will know everything. Compared to my affair with Doctor Xu, I may have more serious consequences for deceiving the Emperor."
Ye Qinghao nodded, his expression showing some satisfaction: "It's good that you know. Then let's leave it at that. If the Emperor asks later, just answer truthfully."
"Yes."
Ye Qing'an agreed and waited until she left the main courtyard before her eyes flickered slightly. What was Ye Qinghao up to now?
While her affair with Xu Mo was indeed true, it occurred within the Ye family mansion. Although Ye Qinghao might not have authority elsewhere, he should still have authority within the Ye family mansion. Concealing it wouldn't be difficult.
After all, in the lie she told before, Xu Mo was the one who helped her repair her dantian meridians. With that connection, it's quite normal for Ye Qing'an and Xu Mo to become a little closer.
However, Ye Qinghao agreed and asked her to pick up Xu Mo the next day, and also told her to answer truthfully when Yi Yunkui asked.
What does Ye Qinghao want to do?
Ye Qing'an was completely baffled and decided to take it one step at a time and make a plan later before returning to her courtyard.
Just as Ye Qinghao had predicted, people from the palace arrived a little later in the afternoon.
Ye Qing'an followed the palace servants into the palace and met Yi Yun Kui in the Imperial Garden.
Yi Yunkui was sitting in the pavilion, his hand supporting his forehead, seemingly taking a nap. Not far away, a musician was playing music.
Upon seeing Ye Qing'an arrive, the eunuch serving nearby quickly lowered his voice and reported, "Your Majesty, Miss Ye has arrived."
Yi Yun Kui responded, but after a while, he opened his eyes and looked at Ye Qing An: "Qing An is here. Come over and sit here."
Ye Qing'an lowered her head and responded, then walked over and sat down opposite Yi Yun Kui.
Yi Yun Kui's gaze fell on Ye Qing An's face: "It seems there are a lot of rumors about you outside lately."
That was straightforward.
"Yes." Ye Qing'an gently bit her lip: "It's probably because I suddenly became a Supreme Being, and I suddenly became a thorn in the side of many people. More and more people are watching me. All sorts of rumors are emerging, some of them so bizarre that even I find them quite surprising."
Yi Yun Kui chuckled: "You are a Supreme Being, not someone else's thorn in their side. Almost every Supreme Being can become a legend."
Ye Qing'an lowered her head, pursed her lips, and said in a very low voice, "But, I am just a woman."
"So what? Who says women are inferior to men?"
Yi Yun Kui waved his hand, and a palace maid quickly stepped forward to pour Ye Qing An a cup of tea.
"I heard that the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince both came to see you?"
Ye Qing'an paused slightly: "Yes."
"Oh? What do they want with you?"
Ye Qing'an lowered her head and dared not make a sound.
Yi Yun Kui picked up his teacup, a warm smile on his face: "You don't need to be afraid. I was just asking. Just answer truthfully. This matter wasn't your fault to begin with."
Ye Qing'an said in a low voice, "Your Highness the Crown Prince..."
"His Highness the Crown Prince asked me if I was willing to serve him."
Yi Yun Kui's expression remained unchanged: "Hmm, he's thinking the same thing as me. As expected of the crown prince I chose, he's thinking about recruiting supreme beings to serve the country."
"Yes."
Yi Yunkui's reaction was too calm, as if he really didn't care.
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes and continued, "Fifth Prince... I once found one of your jade pendants, and you later sent me a thank-you gift. So we got to know each other. You must have heard about me becoming a Supreme Being and were curious, so you came to ask what happened. But you didn't say much else."
Yi Yun Kui nodded: "It seems that I have already bestowed a marriage upon the second young lady of the Ye family and the fifth prince, haven't I?"
"Yes."
Yi Yun Kui swirled the teacup in his hand, pondered for a moment, and said, "If you are to enter the palace later, Fifth Prince should call you Mother Consort. Fifth Prince calls you Mother Consort, but he married your sister. This seems a bit messy. I still need to think carefully about the marriage between Fifth Prince and Miss Ye."
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes and remained silent, but inwardly she was sneering.
Is it feeling a bit chaotic now?
Her aunt is still a concubine in the palace.
Yi Yun Kui took a sip of tea before continuing, "Besides this matter, I've also heard some rumors about your private affairs, Miss Ye. I've heard that you're getting quite close to a physician in the manor?"
Ye Qing'an paused slightly before nodding gently: "Yes, that's right. That medical cultivator saved me. My meridians were blocked and my dantian was destroyed, preventing me from cultivating. He saved me. Later, my child was almost in danger, and he saved that child too. He's my savior..."
"Later, my father saw that he was a skilled physician and took him into his household as a retainer. Over time, we became acquainted. At first, the reason I hesitated was because of him."
Yi Yun Kui's gaze fell on Ye Qing An's face, seemingly surprised that Ye Qing An would dare to speak so boldly.
"because of him?"
Ye Qing'an nodded and took a deep breath: "In fact, all those rumors about me and Doctor Xu were spread by me."
