Before Zhao Yujiao arrived at the gate of Ye Chuyan's courtyard, she learned that the prince took pity on the princess.
Suddenly her nails clenched into her palms, but she quickly put her emotions away and figured out the reason.
The Ye family had just been wiped out, and now Ye Chuyan was just the daughter of the guilty minister, and she could not get pregnant again. If Pei Xiuyan was harsh on Ye Chuyan at this time, it would inevitably be criticized, and he would definitely do it to show others.
When she arrived outside Ye Chuyan's courtyard, she saw the courtyard door wide open.
The two gatekeepers were disposed of by Pei Xiuyan, and the new slaves in the courtyard had not yet arrived, so there was no one in the entire Jianjiayuan.
Zhao Yujiao and his servant first entered Ye Chuyan's bedroom as if they were in a deserted place.
Seeing Bai Zhi sitting by the bed, feeding Ye Chuyan porridge.
Zhao Yujiao pretended to be surprised and said, "Sister, I feel relieved to see that you have a good appetite."
Bai Zhi looked back and saw Hongying pushing Zhao Yujiao in, and she immediately grimaced, "What are you doing here!"
She became angry when she saw Zhao Yujiao's face.
She recalled that back then, the Ye family master and his wife were very kind to her, but she repaid them with kindness and often provoked the relationship between the prince and the princess in the palace.
Zhao Yujiao didn't care at all about Bai Zhi's face.
"Sister, we had some misunderstanding in the attic a few days ago. No matter how I explained to the prince that I broke my leg, he just didn't believe it and hurt you because of it. I couldn't sleep day and night because of this."
Zhao Yujiao spoke sincerely, "I want to apologize to you. No, I will give you the thousand-year-old ginseng that the prince rewarded me. I hope my sister can forgive me."
Hongying took out a mahogany box from the bag on the back of the wheelchair and placed it on the table.
Zhao Yujiao saw Ye Chuyan lying on the bed without any reaction.
He continued: "However, my leg is injured and I can't go out. In addition, something happened to the Ye family. I am anxious every day. I am worried that you will not be able to think about it, and I am also worried that you will blame the prince wrongly. Now I see that you have a good appetite. I think these things have not affected you. I feel relieved."
Bai Zhi gritted her teeth and glared at Zhao Yujiao. Ye Chuyan gently patted Bai Zhi's hand to signal her to calm down.
She said hoarsely: "The maid who delivered the message outside the wall that day was arranged by you, right?"
Zhao Yujiao choked suddenly and returned to normal in an instant, innocently saying: "Sister... I don't understand what you are saying."
Ye Chuyan let out a slight sigh, and it turned out to be Zhao Yujiao.
Zhao Yujiao is probably one of the people in the world who knows her best.
If you know you don’t like sweets, you will definitely refuse them. If you know that you are afraid of water, you will inevitably forget to struggle if you fall in it.
He knew that no matter how he explained it, Pei Xiuyan would never believe him.
Knowing that apart from Pei Xiuyan, his biggest weakness was the Ye family, he deliberately let people reveal information to him during the lockdown.
She had called Zhao Yujiao sister since she was a child. Before she married Pei Xiuyan, she thought she had never done anything to harm Zhao Yujiao. Now, the two of them are like enemies.
If you think about it carefully, it's all your fault that you've reached this point.
Zhao Yujiao didn't know what Ye Chuyan wanted to do. Seeing her silence, she motioned to Hongying to push her forward.
Bai Zhi stood beside the bed like a hen guarding a calf, determined not to let Zhao Yujiao's wheelchair get close.
Zhao Yujiao said a foot away from the bed: "Sister, there is one more thing I don't know whether to say or not. I'm afraid you'll be sad if I tell you, and I'm afraid you won't know if I don't."
Bai Zhi immediately blocked her words, "Then stop talking! Get out of here!"
Zhao Yujiao looked back at Hongying.
Hongying had no choice but to scold sternly: "When the master is talking, when will it be your turn as a slave to interrupt!"
"What kind of master is she? A master who shamelessly lives in someone else's house?" Bai Zhi was completely prepared. As long as she was alive, she would never allow anyone to bully the princess.
The words touched Zhao Yujiao's sore spot. She was so angry that her heart trembled, and she bit the tip of her tongue to calm herself down.
Then he wiped his tears and said sadly: "I know how much my sister misunderstood me, but I always remember the kindness of the Ye family. My uncle was late for three days, and I cried at home for three days."
Zhao Yujiao sobbed, "Yesterday I sent someone to collect the bodies from the mass grave for my uncle and the others. Who knew that the bodies had already been eaten by wild dogs? Every time I think about this, I feel heartbroken."
Bai Zhi was so angry that she was breathing heavily. The princess finally had the desire to live. Zhao Yujiao's words could make people angry to death.
She was so furious that she killed Zhao Yujiao on the spot. Before anyone could react, Zhao Yujiao's wheelchair was overturned to the ground.
Hongying screamed immediately and hurriedly went to help Zhao Yujiao. The room became a mess.
Ye Chuyan was lying on the bed, her lips were pale, and she kept muttering to herself, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it..."
She thought that Pei Xiuyan had no conscience anymore and should have given his father and brother a thin coffin instead of throwing the body into a mass grave and letting wild beasts gnaw at it.
When Li Fu entered the courtyard with his newly purchased slaves, he heard a lot of shouting inside and quickly led people into the house.
I saw Ye Chuyan lying bloodless on the bed, Zhao Yujiao half lying on the ground, shivering with her broken leg in her hands, and her wheelchair was knocked over to the ground.
Hongying and Bai Zhi struggled together like crazy women.
He took a sharp breath and hurriedly led others to help Zhao Yujiao up. Several slaves controlled Bai Zhi and Hong Ying respectively.
Zhao Yujiao's eyes were red, and her eyelashes were filled with tears.
"Steward Li, please don't blame Miss Bai Zhi. All the mistakes you made are all my fault. I just wanted to come and give ginseng to my sister... But I didn't expect that my sister hates me so much now. She just lies down and can't move. I also want Miss Bai Zhi to drive me away..."
When Li Fu heard this, he understood.
It was Zhao Yujiao who came to deliver something, but Bai Zhi overturned the wheelchair, allowing Hongying to fight with her.
Zhao Yujiao didn't allow Li Fu to speak, so she sobbed, holding back her grief and said to Hongying: "Hongying, apologize to Miss Bai Zhi quickly."
Hongying understood, knelt down with a plop, and kowtowed to Bai Zhi firmly.
"Miss Bai Zhi, I am also eager to protect the Lord. You, sir, don't blame me."
Everyone in the room was suddenly shocked and gasped. Especially this batch of newly purchased slaves, they never expected that the princess lying on the bed would be so arrogant and domineering, and they were a little horrified for a moment.
Bai Zhi didn't expect that Zhao Yujiao would confuse right and wrong with a few words, and she was so angry that she was shaking all over.
She was held by two newly purchased servants and couldn't move, so she spat at Zhao Yujiao.
"Bah! You masters and servants have no good intentions and confuse right and wrong. You will die a good death..."
Li Fu's expression changed drastically, and he slapped Bai Zhi on the face.
He angrily scolded: "You are so bold and unruly! This is the palace of the Qing Prince, how can I allow you to be so presumptuous!"
This slap was so hard that half of Bai Zhi's face was swollen.
Bai Zhi was stunned on the spot. She has been with the princess for so long and has never been insulted like this.
Zhao Yujiao didn't expect that Li Fu would dare to risk offending Ye Chuyan and hit Bai Zhi today. I felt quite happy for a while.
Li Fu was also shocked by this slap.
He didn't know why, but he felt like he was losing his mind. When he saw Zhao Yujiao crying so pitifully, Bai Zhi kept yelling and scolding, and actually beat the princess's personal servant in front of everyone.
