Translator: Iris8197 Editor: Rock
“Sixth Princess, you can go ask His Majesty whether this oral decree is real or not,” Jian Chengwen sneered. “Besides, I’m not bold enough to make up a royal decree!”
Jiang Mengyao’s face turned ghastly pale. Feeling that her pride had been shattered in the face of Yun Luofeng, she couldn’t help but back up a few steps.
“Sixth Princess,” Jun Fengling smiled, and a chilling light flickered across her bright eyes, “Now do you still think that even your maid is nobler than my daughter-in-law?”
Jiang Mengyao shuddered and tightly clenched her fists, resentfully staring at Yun Luofeng.
If Jiang Mengyao was more sensible, perhaps she would recognize that Yun Luofeng was just that white-robed girl that she saw in the Imperial Palace that day, but she had already been overwhelmed by envy, so she failed to recognize her.
And then she did something that she would regret for the rest of her life.
“So in Sixth Princess’s eyes, even a maid is nobler than Little Luofeng?” Jian Chengwen frowned, and cast a cold glance at Jiang Mengyao. “Even without the privilege that His Majesty granted her, she is still a member of the Ye Family! But what’s the identity of your maid? Is she even nobler than the Ye Family people?”
Saying this, he turned his sharp eyes to the maid. Under his dagger-like stares, the maid was so scared that she immediately fell on her knees.
“Uncle Ye, I’m going to leave.”
With a pale face, Jiang Mengyao hurriedly left after bidding Ye Jingxuan farewell, followed by a group of maids and guards. She walked so fast it was as though she was afraid she would hear Jian Chengwen’s mocking voice as soon as she stopped.
Jian Chengwen withdrew his eyes with a cold smile and looked around the crowd. “Is there anyone else who still thinks I made up the royal decree?”
Everyone looked at each other. Though the Ye Family looked powerful, it was actually dependent on the royal family! So, if this royal decree was real, no one dared to offend Jun Fengling and her family in the Ye Family from now on.
And Ye Jingxuan might even have to return his position to Ye Jingchen…
Ye Jingxuan lowered his eyes to conceal the grim gleam in his eyes. Yun Luofeng must die, or else he would lose his position sooner or later.
At the thought of this, Ye Jingxuan forced a smile. “Your Excellency, the family feast has been ruined, so we can’t entertain you anymore. Please enjoy yourself. I’m leaving.”
With these words, Ye Jingxuan quickly walked away and disappeared into the dark night.
…
In the dim light of night, a crescent moon hung in the sky, illuminating the dark night.
Suddenly, a black-robed man appeared in the sky and landed in front of Ye Jingxuan.
“Master Jingxuan.”
“Ying, how have I treated you all these years?” “Ye Jingxuan asked with a solemn look.
The black-robed man, who was called Ying, lowered his head and answered respectfully, “Master, you saved my life, so I’m willing to do anything for you even at the expense of my life.”
“Good,” Ye Jingxuan nodded with satisfaction. “Kill Yun Xiao and Yun Luofeng tonight! If you get caught, keep your mouth shut!”
“Yes, Master.”
Respectfully answering, Ying stood up and soon disappeared into the immense darkness like a dark streak of light…
Ye Jingxuan’s face turned ferocious, and he clenched his fists tightly, while a grim light was in his eyes. “Yun Luofeng, Yun Xiao, now you’ll know the result of going against me!”
