Chapter 2568 - 52: Is My Future Sister-in-Law Pretty?
"Miss Li, shall we set out for the prefecture tomorrow?"
Recently, I’ve heard that Wayao Town has started rebuilding houses, but this doesn’t have much to do with Li Luru. She remained in Nankai County just to see if there were any hidden moves by the people behind the scenes.
"Alright!"
Li Luru nodded, thought for a moment, and asked, "Do you have any news from your master?"
"I’ve already sent a message to the master about the situation here, but haven’t received a reply yet."
"Hmm!"
Shortly after, Ye Haoxuan, who had returned to Funan, received a letter from Yun’an.
"Outrageous!" Ye Haoxuan nearly crushed the cup in his hand.
"Brother, what’s wrong?"
"Take a look!" Ye Haoxuan handed the letter to Ye Haoyang.
Upon reading, Ye Haoyang’s face changed, "They’re trying to see our Ye Family annihilated."
To arrange for such a puppet to appear at the site of an earthquake, and wearing a dragon robe no less. This could lead to rumors: wherever Ye Haoxuan goes, earthquakes occur, marking him as a celestial disaster. In such a situation, the least consequence could be the death of Ye Haoxuan.
The worst case, he could be accused of treason, implicating the entire Ye Family. The mastermind behind this is truly sinister.
"Who could have arranged this?" Ye Haoyang raised an eyebrow, "Are they planning to fight our family to the end?"
"Who else could it be? Just those people."
Ye Haoyang glanced at the letter again and chuckled, "This time, we owe it to that Miss Li. Otherwise, you’d find it hard to extricate yourself, brother."
Mentioning Li Luru, Ye Haoyang smiled slightly, feeling a warmth in his heart. That stubborn girl would only act tough; if she truly didn’t care for him at all, she would have kept her distance to stay safe.
His smile didn’t escape Ye Haoyang’s eyes, "Brother, have you decided? Is she the one to be our sister-in-law?"
"..." Ye Haoxuan smiled without speaking.
The thought of making Li Luru his Princess Consort had crossed his mind, hence he spoke those words. But he hesitated since he was the eldest son of the Ye Family, furthermore a Prince; his status was different, and his harem needed a capable mistress who could maintain composure in critical moments. So when Li Luru refused, he didn’t profess anything further.
However, this incident provided him with an opportunity to evaluate. Based on her handling of the situation, she was entirely suitable for the role of mistress of Prince An’s Mansion.
It’s just that the girl has quite the thoughts in her mind, requiring some effort from him.
"Sister-in-law?" Ye Rongqing also came over and just happened to catch Ye Haoyang’s words. He stepped forward, grinning and asked, "Is it the lady mentioned in big brother’s letter?"
He seemed genuinely interested as he continued, "Big brother, is my future sister-in-law pretty? What’s her family background? Which family does she belong to?"
As soon as he spoke, it reminded Ye Haoxuan of the matter mentioned in the letter, "What have you been up to lately?"
"Me? What can I be up to? I’ve been following second brother to find my sister." Ye Rongqing pouted, "I just didn’t expect it to be as mother said."
Earlier in the room, their mother actually told them that his sister might have traveled to another place completely different from here, and that even his old mother came from that place. It was truly shocking.
"Just following your second brother?" Ye Haoxuan obviously didn’t believe it, "If that’s all you’re doing, how come you even know about controlling bugs? Just tell me, who have you been associating with lately? How did you come to know about these forbidden arts?"
Indeed, in Great Zhou, the art of bugs is strictly prohibited as a forbidden practice.
