The Rebirth of Jiangmen's Daughter

Chapter 38
The weather is gradually entering summer, and Beijing is as calm as ever. The only thing that surprises people is that Princess Qingping's Jiji ceremony is personally arranged by the empress.

Although Princess Qingping's father, King An, is the current emperor's brother, this prince has been stationed in Dongyang since he was an adult, and even after getting married, he only stayed in Beijing for more than a month before going to the military camp.

Concubine An was frightened when she gave birth to Princess Qingping, and her body has not been recuperated since then. In addition, Princess An was too worried, and she passed away when Princess Qingping was five years old.

After that, Princess Qingping was taken into the palace to be raised by Prince An's mother and concubine Qin Taifei. A few years ago, Princess Qin died, and the queen mother and the emperor kept Princess Qingping in the palace because they remembered that King An's meritorious service was in Sheji. .

Princess Qingping and Ji Li's generosity is not to be said for ordinary princesses, even princesses who are slightly favored can't match it. Rumors that the royal family values ​​Princess Qingping spread like wildfire.

All of this naturally did not affect Ye Qingcheng in Tao Ran's residence. Her life was still simple and relaxed, and she was only waiting for her parents and brothers to return to Beijing so that the family could be reunited as soon as possible.

Since the beginning of summer, the weather has been sunny, and the starry sky at night is dotted with stars. Ye Qingcheng has not slept well these days due to the hot weather. When she woke up, her back was already sweating profusely. Responding, Ye Qingcheng sat up from the bed by himself.

When Ye Qingcheng lifted the green gauze curtain on the bed with one hand, he saw a snake with a colorful back coiled three feet away from the bed, and the snake was spitting out letters, Ye Qingcheng couldn't help screaming.

It was said that it was too late, and then it was fast, and the door was knocked open like a gust of wind, and before the person appeared, the snake was cut in two by the sword glowing with blue light.

The severed snake was still wriggling on the ground, so Ye Qingcheng had the courage to look up at the person holding the sword.

Huangfu Ye was dressed in a nocturnal attire, which was different from the attire of the Qing noble sons in the past, so he was somewhat charming like this.

He looked at Ye Qingcheng with a terrified face from a distance, and said: "It's all right, don't be afraid."

"Why...how did you come...to come here?" Ye Qingcheng's words were incoherent, but his remaining rationality was not lost because of this.

Huangfuye sighed silently. Ye Jinxiu has been staring at this silly girl for a long time. Don't you know that Ye Jinxiu now hates her to the bone?

"I knew you would be in danger, so I just waited outside your yard. If I hadn't arrived in time, the venom of this piebald snake would be extremely difficult to cure!"

"You shouldn't have come... Now I am a person of right and wrong, and I will implicate you." Ye Qingcheng's frightened face gradually turned pale, and his voice no longer trembled and feared just now.

"What does that matter?" The two long eyebrows raised slightly, and Huangfu Ye's eyes were full of unresolved anger.

He turned around, picked the snake with his sword, pushed open the window with his internal force, and threw the snake's body out neatly.

"Where are Yumo and Ranmo?" Gradually returning to reason, Ye Qingcheng felt that there were too many strange things today.

"All the maids and women in your yard have been drugged, so there is no movement in the whole yard. As for the person who released the snake, you know it well. It's late at night, so you can rest assured!"

After finishing speaking, Huangfu Ye was just like when he came, like a gust of wind, the doors and windows were closed again, and silence returned to Ye Qingcheng's boudoir.

Because of being frightened by the poisonous snake, Ye Qingcheng did not dare to fall asleep easily. There were too many questions in her mind, why did Huangfuye come by such a coincidence?

Moreover, he seemed a little angry just now...
