Ye Jinsu closed her eyes and said as usual, "I want to live a peaceful life, but everyone here wants me dead."

"Heh." Ye Jinsu let out a short chuckle. "What's funny is that one of them is my biological father while the other is my mother."

"Where do I think I can go?" Ye Jinsu turned his head to look at Meng Lan. Where could she find a path of retreat behind her? She had always been walking on the edge of the precipice at the edge of life and death.

"Do you think she will let me off after forcing Madam Xie to this extent, or will my heartless father let me off?" Ye Jinsu asked again.

Meng Lan was actually unable to say a word. She slightly opened her mouth and was surprised by Ye Jinsu's words.

For a moment, she didn't know what to say to Ye Jinsu.

After hesitating for a long time, Meng Lan finally said, "But ? but young miss will be getting old soon. When the time comes, we can get married and leave this place."

Ye Jinsu's face turned cold.

Meng Lan was shocked and quickly kneeled down to apologize. "This servant has crossed the line. Please do not blame this young miss."

This was the first time she saw Ye Jinsu angry since she came here.

Ye JinSu frowned as she stared at Meng Lan, who had bent her head down. She wanted to say something. Say what I said to Little Red back then.

However, after her heart had been churning for a few times, she finally said, "Meng Lan, I am the daughter of the Ye Family. I have the blood of the Ye Family on me."

"I will never be able to break free from the Ye Family in this life, even if I get married."

"Besides, there are still my family in the House of Ye. They can all hope for my death." "If I get married, wouldn't I die miserably if there was someone stronger than the Xie Clan in the husband's family?"

Stretching out a hand to help Meng Lan up, Ye Jinsu looked into Meng Lan's eyes and said, "You are following by the side of the prince. You must have seen some powerful figures before."

"Do you think it would be better if I met them than in the House of Ye?" Ye Jinsu smiled.

Meng Lan couldn't help but shiver. Of course she had seen it before. She had seen the shrewd and scheming Empress of the palace, and she had also seen the various Duke Palaces struggle even harder than this.

Right now, there was no one in Ning Wang's room. The backyard was still quiet and peaceful, but that was only for a short period of time. If Ye Jinsu entered the Royal Mansion, then there would be a formidable opponent in the future. There would be even more vicious people who would want Ye Jinsu dead.

Meng Lan looked nervously at Ye Jinxiu. Ye Jinxiu was a good person. She had just suffered too much and shouldn't have to endure any more of this.

Ye Jinsu tilted his head as if he had seen through Meng Lan's thoughts. He softly said, "At that time, if mother doesn't help me, and I'm alone in the husband's house, I might die without knowing how like my mother."

Meng Lan thought of that scene and started to resist.

"No!" Meng Lan waved her hand in refusal. She didn't want Ye Jinsu to enter another fire pit.

She only felt that if Ye Jinsu had chosen to marry the prince from the beginning, then so be it.

At the very least, he wouldn't live so arduously as he did now.

However, Ye Jinsu's words made her ponder deeply. How long could she continue to love him for? If she lost the prince's support, what would happen to her?

She didn't know. She just felt uncomfortable.

Ye Jinsu let go of her and lay back on the bed. She asked softly, "Do you still think that marrying someone is the best method?"

"No, no." Meng Lan shook her head. Thinking about it, she felt bitter and choked with sobs, "I just want my little miss to be fine."

"Your injury this time is very serious." Meng Lan cried.

Hearing Meng Lan's crying, Ye Jinsu's heart tightened and she sighed. The words that she wanted to say lingered on her lips before she finally said, "I will protect myself."

"I'm tired. Turn off the lights and rest." Ye Jinsu closed her eyes and turned her head to the side.

Meng Lan left as instructed.

Only when the entire room became silent and dark did Ye Jinsu open her eyes and stare at the curtain above her head.

Meng Lan's words reminded Ye Jinsu that she was Ning Yunyin's woman after all.

Ning Yunyin ?

As Ye Jinsu chewed on these words, some unknown emotions began to spread in his heart. For a moment, he couldn't tell the difference between good and bad, just like how he couldn't clearly see everything in the deep night.

This wasn't a good thing for Ye Jinsu.

With worry still clouding her face, Ye Jinsu rubbed between her eyebrows and silently cursed in her heart. Ning Yunyin was really like a ghost that wouldn't go away.

Even if he didn't leave before, I would have had this chance. That's why I gave him all the people.

Was he letting them float in front of his eyes on purpose, reminding him of his existence all the time?

She reminded herself that she owed him a huge favor.

With a sigh, Ye Jinsu knocked her head, wanting to knock out Ning Yunyin's ever-changing face.

Unfortunately, the opposite was the case. Ye Jinsu actually thought of more.

She thought of that day when Ning Yunyin had rummaged through her courtyard to find her. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Ning Yunyin standing by her bedside.

She thought back to when she first met Ning Yunyin, standing at the edge of the steps. She was like a jade tree with a gentle breeze; a gentleman was like a jade.

She still remembered that kiss Ning Yunxiao gave her before she left ?

What's more, the way he looked when he came to interrogate her, the way he teased her, the way he seriously comforted her ?

Ye Jinsu blinked her eyes, but could not see anything clearly in the dark night.

Ning Yunyin ? When can I see you clearly?

The wind gusted through the curtain and blew directly towards the Purple Sun Pass.

Ning Yunyin held her sword as she made her final preparations. If everything went well, the war would be over in less than ten days and she could return to the capital.

The soldiers waiting outside had a grim expression on their faces. Everything had been dealt a blow, with either life or death. If he failed, then it would be even harder for him to attack in the future.

The old general lifted the curtain and walked in. When he saw Ning Yunyin staring at the map, he suddenly sneered. "What? Are you afraid now?"

Ning Yunlian looked at the map and didn't say anything for a while, her brows slightly creased.

The old general saw that his words were ignored so he immediately felt contemptuous. His anger rose but he couldn't do anything because of his identity. He could only ask in a deep voice: "How much certainty do you have?"

"30%." Ning Yunyin truthfully replied.

The old general was not surprised by this question. In her opinion, this was a thirty percent chance.

He really couldn't understand. Was the current prince really so full of energy that he couldn't eat anymore.

It was clearly an ordinary little battle, and after a few months of following the rules and following it, the victors of the great army would all return to receive their rewards. It was clear that the Emperor wanted Ning Yunxiao to gain some experience before a large amount of rewards awaited him.

He had to make things so complicated, forcing the situation to such an extent.

The old general shook his head and sighed.

Ning Yunyin didn't look like an idiot. He really didn't understand.

"Do you know those soldiers outside? Their families have both old and young children, and their mother and children are still waiting for them to return home."

"Take this 30% chance of yours and take them and your own life. What exactly are you plotting?!"

The old general was so infuriated that his beard was twitching wildly. There was nothing he could do.

Ning Yunyin glanced at the anxious old general, but didn't say anything. She silently left the military tent.
