The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 27 - The Situation of the World

Ye Qichi and her entourage returned to the Minister Mansion.

Ye Zhengde had been extremely anxious at home. Seeing them return safely, he finally took a deep breath of relief, "Yun Nan, Qi'er, are you both alright?"

"It's my fault, I worried Father." Ye Yunan admitted his mistake.

"Who let you go to the gambling house!" The next second, Ye Zhengde immediately became angry and reprimanded.

Chen Zihuan hurriedly intervened, "Lord Minister, it is my fault for allowing Yun Nan to take me to the gambling house, almost causing a great mistake."

Ye Zhengde looked at Chen Zihuan.

Chen Zihuan explained the whole incident.

Ye Zhengde could not reprimand someone else's child after all and held back from saying more.

Besides, since nothing bad happened in the end, he decided not to hold a grudge.

Instead, he thought about how Ye Qichi used her courage and wisdom to save Ye Yunan and his opinion of her improved greatly.

After leaving Ye Zhengde's courtyard, Chen Zihuan excused himself and left first. Walking together, Ye Qichi said, "Brother, you must be cautious when making friends."

"Are you talking about Zihuan?" Ye Yunan was a bit surprised.

Just now, Chen Zihuan had taken all the responsibility on himself, otherwise, he might have been spanked hard by their father at this moment.

"In any case, you cannot be without precaution towards others."

Currently, Ye Yunan was nearly completely obedient to Ye Qichi. He nodded, "Alright, I will definitely pay more attention."

Ye Qichi smiled, saying, "After being busy for most of the day, I'm going to my room to rest a bit. You should also go back and rest early, brother."

Only then did the siblings part ways.

Ye Qichi walked towards her small courtyard.

She had barely slept last night and had spent the early morning in a battle of wits, the physical and mental strain made her extremely tired.

She yawned indifferently.

And then she saw Xiao Jinxing.

That guy was actually taking a stroll in the Minister Mansion, leisurely and comfortably pushed in his wheelchair by Xiao Wu.

Ye Qichi paused for a second, pretended not to see him, and continued yawning nonchalantly.

Xiao Jinxing's eyes tightened.

Doesn't this woman care about her image at all?!

"Ye Qichi!" Xiao Jinxing called out to her, his voice very cold.

Right now, Ye Qichi truly did not want to deal with anyone; she just wanted to lie in bed and sleep soundly.

However, at that moment, she had to stop walking and performed a curtsy, "Do you have any orders, Prince?"

"Set off for Prince Chen's Mansion after lunch." Xiao Jinxing stated bluntly.

Ye Qichi truly wanted to curse this guy's ancestors!

It was almost lunchtime now, and she hadn't been given any chance to sleep at all.

"Did you hear me?" Without getting a response from Ye Qichi, Xiao Jinxing's voice grew colder.

"I heard you." Ye Qichi reminded herself to be patient.

At least for a considerable time to come, she had to rely on this mad male lead to survive.

Xiao Jinxing glanced at Ye Qichi, turned his eyes, and signaled Xiao Wu to push him away.

After leaving, Xiao Wu couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect the Princess to return from the gambling house unharmed. The spies said that the Chu Prince was indeed in the gambling house and surprisingly did not trouble the Princess."

"That's not his style. Unless..." Xiao Jinxing's eyes tightened.

"Unless what?" Xiao Wu asked.

Unless he couldn't find a reason to make things difficult for her.

So, who exactly is this woman, Ye Qichi? And how did she manage to leave the Chu Prince's territory unscathed?!

He commanded coldly, "Investigate Ye Qichi, thoroughly."

"..." Xiao Wu acknowledged.

How do I investigate?!

It just suddenly changed!

...

Ye Qichi didn't return to her own small courtyard, as she's about to leave soon, and there were some matters she needed to explain to Qin Mengxi.

Qin Mengxi, hearing of Ye Qichi's departure, ultimately felt reluctant to let go.

But there was no way to ask her to stay; she could only feel her eyes reddening.

"Mother, Ye Yunan will be one of our own from now on. If Auntie Zhou plots against you in secret, you can ask him for help with anything." Ye Qichi spoke earnestly.

Qin Mengxi nodded.

She had already grown accustomed to her daughter's newfound intelligence.

Moreover, pulling Ye Yunan to their side was not a difficult task, especially since he was different from Zhou Ruotang and Ye Zhilan.

"Father certainly has many faults, but since you've never considered divorce, just get along with him. Father does like you, it's just that he places too much importance on face. You should yield to him more in the future." Ye Qichi added.

"Okay," Qin Mengxi agreed.

She didn't want her daughter to be worried about her after she had left.

"Mother, do you want to have another child?" Ye Qichi suddenly asked.

Qin Mengxi was already feeling sad, and upon hearing her daughter's question, her face turned red, "What nonsense are you talking? I'm too old for that..."

"Thirty-five is very young." In her era, many people hadn't even married by the age of thirty-five.

"It was difficult enough giving birth to you, how could I have another!" Qin Mengxi had never even considered the possibility.

But if it were possible...

Ultimately in ancient times, passing on the family line and bearing sons was every woman's wish!

"Nanny Zhang." Ye Qichi called out to the servant beside her.

"Princess." Nanny Zhang replied with utmost respect.

"Bring me some writing materials."

"Yes."

Everyone was surprised by Ye Qichi's actions.

They watched as Ye Qichi wrote down a line of text.

The brush was ultimately somewhat unfamiliar to her, but fortunately, it was legible enough. She put down the writing materials, "Follow this prescription and acquire the medicine, brew it daily for the lady to drink. It's somewhat bitter, but she must endure. Within a year, there should be good news."

Qin Mengxi was stunned.

Since when did her daughter know how to treat ailments?

Ye Qichi didn't explain further; she simply said, "Mother, you're just suffering from a cold womb, it's not a big issue once properly treated. I hope to meet a brother or sister when I return next time."

"You child!" Qin Mengxi's face reddened again from Ye Qichi's teasing.

But at that moment,

she suddenly thought of something and said, "You've been married to the Prince for a year now, why aren't you pregnant?"

She had always been worried that her daughter might have inherited her fertility issues, but now seeing that her daughter could prescribe remedies, she found it somewhat strange.

Ye Qichi was a bit hesitant, "Having a child is a matter of fate."

"Don't delay it," Qin Mengxi advised, but she didn't press too hard.

She was very clear about how anxious she had been when she couldn't get pregnant; she didn't want to impose such stress on her daughter.

"Okay," Ye Qichi responded perfunctorily.

After settling all affairs, Ye Qichi left Qin Mengxi's courtyard and went straight to Ye Zhengde's courtyard to find him.

After a series of grandiose pleasantries, Ye Qichi said, "Father, the court appears calm now but is actually fraught with hidden dangers. The Crown Prince lacks the capability for the throne, but due to the Empress's influence, the Emperor dares not depose him. The Second Prince, the Prince of Chu, excels in all aspects and is favored by the Emperor, but ascending to the throne is as difficult as climbing to heaven. In such circumstances, Father must be careful not to pick sides hastily."

Ye Zhengde looked at his daughter in surprise.

He never would have thought that one day, the daughter he least valued would help him analyze the situation of the entire realm.
