"Go, where are you going?" Yu Qingluo's questioning voice could only be heard distantly outside the door, but the figure ignored her at all.
Ye Xiudu frowned and wanted to reach out to stop him, but when he saw the expression on Ye Haoran's face, he paused. When he heard Yu Qingluo's voice again, Ye Haoran had disappeared.
"I'll go take a look." Thinking of the emperor's dissatisfaction with Ye Haoran, Ye Xiudu followed him uneasily.
Ye Haoran ran very fast, and even though he was injured, his speed did not slow down at all.
After Ye Xiu followed him for a while, his expression became serious.
This is the way to the palace. What is Ye Haoran doing at this juncture? Doesn't he know that going to the palace means surrendering? Ye Xiu alone didn't think that he was going to plead guilty.
The atmosphere in the palace was more tense than before. Ye Xiu felt this unusual atmosphere as soon as he entered the palace gate alone.
Most likely, the Queen and Concubine Meng were on the same page.
After entering the palace gate, Ye Xiudu lost sight of Ye Haoran. He walked inside, and after a while, a palace maid quietly walked towards him.
The palace maid blessed him and said in a very low voice, "Your Majesty."
"Have you seen the Eighth Prince?" Ye Xiu glanced at her and asked in a low voice.
The palace maid looked around, nodded and replied, "Look, the Eighth Prince ran to Concubine Wan's residence."
Concubine Wan
Ye Xiu waved his hand and asked the palace maid to retreat.
But his progress stopped. Since he was going to Concubine Wan's palace, there was no reason for him to follow her.
Leaning on the rockery nearby, Ye Xiu fell silent and began to think carefully about the inexplicable pursuit of Ye Haoran and Jin Liuli.
Both of them are very skilled. Although Ye Haoran is a little cynical on weekdays, he has not failed to learn the lessons he should learn, and he has not been lazy for a moment when he should practice the skills.
And Jin Liuli is the best among killers. Even Shen Ying Mo Xian may not be her opponent.
With such a strong two people, when he knew that they were eloping, Ye Xiudu was not worried about their safety at all.
But he didn't expect that in just half a month, both of them would be injured at the same time. Even... Jin Liuli was seriously injured.
Ye Xiudu's deep eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of Concubine Wan's palace gate.
Ye Haoran came to see Concubine Wan so eagerly and angrily...
Ye Xiu was suddenly startled. Could this be related to Concubine Wan
Damn it, if it has something to do with Concubine Wan, it will be a very troublesome thing for Ye Haoran and Jin Liuli.
But Ye Xiudu really couldn't believe how someone like Concubine Wan could do something like chase and kill his son.
Not only him, but also Ye Haoran thought this was extremely ridiculous.
However, no matter how many excuses and excuses he made for Concubine Wan, this was the fact. It had only been three peaceful days since they left the imperial capital, and someone was hunting them down.
And this person... is his mother-in-law.
With a "bang", Ye Haoran kicked open the door in front of him and stared at Concubine Wan who was leaning on the couch reading a book with piercing eyes.
The palace maid who followed her turned pale and couldn't stop her even if she wanted to.
Seeing the door open, he hurriedly turned to Concubine Wan to plead guilty, "Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince..."
"You go down first." Concubine Wan smiled at her with a gentle expression.
The palace maid hurriedly bowed and retreated, and even thoughtfully closed the door for the two of them.
Concubine Wan then lazily stood up from the couch, folded the corner of the book gently and elegantly, and placed it on the table.
Then he walked towards Ye Haoran calmly, smiled and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, and spoke softly.
"You're back? Why are you so angry? Who made you unhappy? Or is it that the things your father sent you to do this time are a bit difficult? If you really have difficulties, come back and talk to your father. , let him go to someone else, your temper is used to being undisciplined, and you are not suitable for doing those serious things."
How gentle, so elegant, so considerate.
If it were normal, Ye Haoran would be laughing and supporting her, sitting aside and talking to her about the outside world.
But at this moment, he was looking at her as if she were a stranger.
After a while, he brushed away her hand that was wiping his sweat and said in a voice cold to the bone, "Why?"
"Huh? Why?" Concubine Wan looked at him strangely with an innocent look on her face.
"Why did you send people to hunt us down? Why did you put Li'er to death? Aren't you the most gentle person? Why are you like this now?"
Concubine Wan frowned and looked at him dissatisfied, "Haoran, what are you talking about? What pursuit? Who is Li'er again? Did you listen to what others said outside and misunderstood something?"
"You still want to pretend, and now you are still pretending." Ye Haoran felt extremely uncomfortable, his whole heart was twisted into a ball, and he was very irritable.
In his heart, Concubine Wan has always been a rare place of warmth, tranquility and elegance in this intrigue and intrigue palace, which she cannot compete with.
Over the years, she would just go to a deserted pavilion to read and write when she felt like it, like a worldly expert. Anything that happened in this palace had nothing to do with her, and she never paid attention to it.
But because of this, Ye Haoran felt that his mother-in-law was very lonely. When she was a child, she always liked to stay by her side and talk to him. It wasn't until she met the like-minded Concubine Xiao that he finally settled down and started laughing and playing outside, doing what he liked.
But all of this, and Concubine Wan's temperament over the years, turned out to be all lies.
Chase? She sent at least five or six groups of experts to hunt them down.
There are so many masters... A concubine who lives in a deep palace and doesn't care about worldly affairs. If she hadn't been planning for many years, she would be a killer from nowhere.
So over the years, it's not that she has done nothing, but that she has done so much that she has deceived everyone.
"Haoran, you are not allowed to talk to your mother like this." Concubine Wan's hand was still frozen in the air, and her usually soft eyes slowly faded.
Ye Haoran lifted up the sleeves on his hands and handed the wounds to her, "These are what my mother-in-law left for me. These knives cut on the body, it doesn't hurt at all. Really, compared to knowing the truth At the time, this was really not worth mentioning.”
Concubine Wan's expression finally changed uncontrollably. She stared at the scattered scars on his arms and took two steps back. She clenched her fingers and twitched her eyebrows twice.
"How could you be hurt?"
"Yes?" Ye Haoran laughed, "So what the concubine wanted from the beginning was Li'er's life, right? Did the concubine admit that she sent a killer to hunt us down?"
