, his hands tightened slightly, clenching into fists.I don't know what he was thinking, but Ye Er's eyes grew even deeper. Hou Madam didn't want him to be near Xiao Qin, she knew that very well, but h...After the guard finished speaking, Ye Er let out an imperceptible sigh of relief.

Actually, he didn't want the two of them to leave either. If they were assassins, then he could keep them without any hesitation.

The guards didn't know how their superiors would react after learning about their true pasts. They nervously raised their heads to glance at Ye Er.

His face was conflicted, torn between hesitation and determination. Just as he was about to take the plunge and ask Ye Er if they could leave, Ye Er spoke before him.

"Ye Er let out a soft chuckle. 'Why are you so nervous There are dangers all around me right now. The servants in the manor can only fight a bit, they're useless for anything else. If someone really wants to take my life, those servants wouldn't stand a chance. So your unwillingness to leave at this time is a great blessing for me, but for you, staying by my side means risking your lives at any moment.'"

Ye Er's words, the guards didn't know if they had listened to them or not. When they heard that Ye Er wouldn't drive them away, one big man almost shed tears of gratitude, "Thank you, my lord, as long as you are willing to take us in, we brothers will never leave, and we will do anything for you, my lord. We will not hesitate."

To someone who has never had a home, no one can understand the significance of Ye Fu to them.

After being saved by Master Ye, he didn't take advantage of their gratitude to make them stay as guards. Instead, he gave them a sum of silver and let them go wherever they pleased.

After they said there was nowhere to go, it was Ye Lord who spoke those words:

"If you have nowhere to go, you can consider Ye Mansion your home. When you're tired from traveling outside, just return to Ye Mansion for rest. After all, I don't know how long I can last. After my death, this vast Ye Mansion will be empty anyway. If you want a courtyard to live in, I can go to the government office before I die and have it divided among you."

No one could fathom the stir of emotion that welled up within the two brothers when they heard such words, even though they later knew Ye Da was playing games with them, trying to keep them there.

But they are willing to play the role of adults, and even willing to risk their lives for them.

Ye Er saw a glimmer of tears in the eyes of his guards. He sighed slightly, knowing they understood that the parting words left for them were just part of an emotional ploy. But these two men were determined to believe it.

This is also why, after leaving them behind, he never doubted them.

Two big men sat in the carriage, and after the initial greetings, the atmosphere became slightly awkward.

Just as Ye Er was trying to change the subject, the carriage lurched violently. The guards instantly tensed up and cautiously said, "Be careful, my lord. I'll go take a look."

After saying that, he didn't give Ye Er a chance to react and walked straight out of the carriage. The coachman was also a killer they had hired later, and he was quite skilled. The two of them cautiously looked at the woman who threw stones at their carriage, and the corners of their mouths twitched.

This woman's face they were all familiar with. She was a maidservant of the Anle Hou Mansion, and more precisely, she should be a maidservant named Qingya beside Princess Xiaoqin.

She probably wanted to stop them without drawing attention from others, but choosing to pelt them with stones like they were a carriage... whoever came up with that idea is simply... idiotic.

Inside the car, Ye Er didn't feel any danger outside, nor did she hear any sound. She narrowed her eyes slightly and asked in a low voice, "What's going on"

The guard regained his composure and gave Qing Ya a long look, then lifted the curtain, his expression unreadable. “My lord, it’s a maidservant from the county princess’s side.”

" "

The simple title "County Princess" was enough to stir ripples in Ye Er's heart.

Of course, no matter what, whenever it came to her, he couldn't bear to ignore it. He tried to force himself to look away, but he just couldn't.

He still remembered very clearly what Lady Anlehou had told him that day.

Even without Lady Anle's reminder, he was quite aware that his relationship with Xiaoqin was ultimately impossible.

Remembering Lady Anlehou's words, the slight agitation in his heart gradually subsided, and the fleeting emotions on his face were carefully concealed.

...only that the change in his expression, to the guard, seemed like their lord had turned cold when they heard who was outside. He thought their lord disliked being disturbed by outsiders.

Then he frowned, and before Ye Er could say anything, he proactively said, "Rest assured, sir, I will drive her away immediately."

"..." Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

Ye Er finally pulled himself out of his deep thoughts, and helplessly called to the guards who were aggressively preparing to drive him away, "Wait."

The guard hesitated, turning back with a puzzled expression, "What else is there, sir"

"She's in a better mood. They're not enemies, let's just ask her what's up first."

The guard blinked, wanting to retort that he wasn't being rude, just that the adults seemed out of sorts after seeming to know who was outside.

So he still thought they were bothering the adults, so he decided to get rid of them quickly.

But since the adults had given their orders, he couldn't say anything. After agreeing, he did as they instructed him to do.

"...Qing Ya immediately rolled her eyes, your smile is scary, your whole family is scary!"

But since they had said so, she didn't waste any words and immediately said, "Our young lady has something to say to you esteemed adults. Would you be willing to meet our young lady"
