Ao Xue then quickly left the place.
As she was on her way, she sent out a message and then a team of people all dressed in black appeared at her side soon after.
"Go, verify the identity of everyone who attended this banquet as well as the events that transpired. Don’t let even the slightest hint of a clue escape you!"
Ao Shuang had not been by his side when the Master rushed back to the capital and fell into danger.
But for Ao Xue, the truth of the matter was clear.
According to Physician Xue, that woman was an expert at Gold Needle Acupuncture!
Would they find some clues as to her whereabouts?
Ao Xue paled suddenly.
She finally realised why her Master had returned to the capital.
It was because he had decided to find that woman!
And she also realised why he had settled down in this long abandoned secondary courtyard!
It was because the battlefield where he was injured that day was not far from here!
She suddenly felt a surge of regret.
She would have to remind Ao Shuang that this matter was not to be revealed to Master.
Coldly, she told the men, "After investigating, return and report your findings to me immediately! Remember, don't let the information leak out to anyone! Understand?"
“ANYONE,” She emphasized.
….
In Zhulan Compound, Ye Jinli’s sobs rang through the air thunderously.
But if one were to listen closely, it would be obvious that she was not confident.
After all, she had been beaten to the point where her face was swollen like a pig’s head. She looked monstrous.
When Madam Guo first set eyes on her, she was so shocked that she almost fainted.
And now she was panicking and ordering a momo to apply medication for Ye Jinli.
Ye Jinli cried for a long time before she dried her tears. "Third sister! Why didn’t you help me? If the Prince had said something, how could she have dared to touch me?" She said with dissatisfaction.
Ye Yunxiao cursed angrily in her mind.
Brainless thing!
Sometimes she really wondered how such a wide gulf in intelligence level could possibly exist between twin sisters.
She comforted Ye Jinli for a long time until the other finally went away.
Afterwards, Madam Guo was somewhat dissatisfied too and asked, "Is what your second sister said true? You really didn't help her?"
Ye Yunxiao said with a troubled smile, "Mother! You really mustn’t allow second sister to do whatever she wants anymore. Do you know who she got in trouble with today?”
“It was the cold Demonic Prince from the Northwest! Even Prince Lu does not dare to provoke that man!"
"He even sent one of his men to cut off the head of Little Sire Huo!"
Madam Guo grew pale with fright and sucked in a deep breath. "Really?" She asked.
"Of course! Because of this matter, my husband, the Prince, even expressed his deep disapproval!"
Madam Guo was very shocked. "The Prince won’t become dissatisfied with you because of this incident, I hope?"
"Well, it’s not as serious as that, but Mother, we can't let second sister get into any more trouble. It would be better to have her married off as soon as possible!"
Ye Yunxiao thought rather snarkily.
When she has married into the Zeng family, she can cause whatever trouble she wants. None of that will implicate our Ye family.
Recently, she discovered that every time she went out with Ye Jinli, she would return thoroughly embarrassed.
Oh, but there’s nothing one can do to a stupid hindrance like this one.
Madam Guo thought for a moment then nodded and said, "Well, I’ve also discussed this with the Zeng Family, and concluded that it’s best to hold this wedding at the beginning of next year.
Once Jin’er is married, my only hope would be that you will have a smooth-sailing marriage to the Prince. And then I’ll be able to relax.
Then again when you two sisters are married off, I’ll have to face that little wretch every day. I fear that might take years off my life!"
Ye Yunxiao gave a sinister looking smile and said, "Don't worry, Mother, I’ll get rid of that piece of trash sooner or later. You know, that Princess Yunyang, she’s coming back..."
