After giving her contraceptives, she went mad, criticizing the prince for turning white-haired overn

Upon hearing the words "Regent," Shen Ning felt as if an invisible hand was gripping her heart tightly.

It almost suffocated her.

I wonder if Xie Linyuan knows about her rebirth.

Few people in the court and among the public knew about the friendship between Xie Linyuan and Grand Secretary Ling.

She only found out in her past life.

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Ye quickly got up from the couch: "Why is he here?"

The old woman replied, "The Regent has sent the young master back, saying he wants to see the old lady in person."

"How is the young master?" Old Madam Ye asked worriedly.

The old woman whispered, "When they were brought back, they were covered in blood and their fingers had been cut off."

"Just as I thought."

Madam Ye hurriedly got up from the couch.

"Ning'er, you rest in your maternal grandmother's room first. Your grandmother is going to see Yama, the King of Hell."

"That regent is no benevolent man; it's best for a young girl like you to stay out of the way."

Shen Ning nodded slowly, also somewhat nervous.

Xie Linyuan is perceptive and will surely notice something.

It's easy to guess that someone gave the Ye family advice.

"Okay, Ning'er will listen to her grandmother."

Dressed neatly, Madam Ye, supported by several maids and nannies, went to the front hall of the Ye family home.

In the front hall, Xie Linyuan was dressed in a dark brocade robe with a golden python pattern flowing on it.

His aura was sharp and intense, carrying a strong sense of oppression.

He sat high on his throne, looking down with disdain at the person lying on the ground.

Madam Ye led her servants into the front hall, where she saw Ye Ronghua sitting nervously on a chair to the side.

Wang rushed to Ye Huai's side in the center of the hall, her face full of heartache.

Ye Huai lay on the ground, covered in wounds, his back covered with whip marks.

His right thumb had been severed, and he stared at Old Madam Ye as she entered, barely clinging to life.

"Grandma...Grandma, save me!"

Madam Ye forced herself to remain calm, walked up to Xie Linyuan, and bowed.

"This old woman greets Your Highness."

Xie Linyuan raised an eyebrow slightly, his brows revealing a hint of unruliness.

"It seems that the Ye family now has a master to guide them."

"I wonder if Madam Ye could allow me to meet that extraordinary person?"

Madam Ye's expression froze, and she looked at Xie Linyuan in disbelief.

"Your Highness, I don't understand what you're saying."

Xie Linyuan snorted coldly, his voice icy.

"It seems the old lady is pretending not to know what's going on."

"If that's the case, then let me be clearer. Who advised the Ye family today to have Madam Ye take Elder Ling's jade pendant to the inner palace to find my mother?"

"The people behind the Ye family seem to know my character very well."

Madam Ye frowned slightly.

Indeed, given Xie Linyuan's style of doing things, Ye Huai, once in his hands, would certainly not survive the night.

But Shen Ning is just a young girl.

How could anyone know that if Xie Linyuan brought Ling Ge Lao's jade pendant to Consort Liu, he would definitely release the person?

"Madam Ye?" Xie Linyuan's voice grew increasingly cold.

"Is Madam Ye still unwilling to reveal that person's name?"

"If that's the case, then I'll spare your son's life."

As Xie Linyuan spoke, he slowly rose from his chair.

Wang quickly and tightly protected Ye Huai.

"Your Highness, our Huai'er has no grudge against you, why are you targeting him like this?"

"Your Highness, if you have anything to say, address it directly to me!"

Madam Ye hurriedly said, "Your Highness is the Regent of Great Yan. Since you released our Huai'er because of Grand Secretary Ling's jade pendant, why press him so hard?"

"Now that Your Highness has cut off Huai'er's finger, she will never be able to serve in the government again. What impact will this have on Your Highness?"

Xie Linyuan smiled and raised an eyebrow at Old Madam Ye.

"It seems that Madam Ye is still not telling the truth."

"Mo Yu, cripple Ye Shizi's right leg."

Mo Yu quickly drew his long sword from his waist and was about to walk to Ye Huai's side.

Wang immediately became anxious.

"Mother, just tell him. Do you want to see Huaizhi die tonight?"

"How can this be allowed?" Old Madam Ye gritted her teeth.

Xie Linyuan: "It seems that the young master Ye's leg is not as important as the powerful figure behind the Ye family."

"Mo Yu, make your move!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Mo Yu stepped forward, about to drag Wang Shi away.

Wang quickly spoke.

"I'll say it!"

"It is... Shen Ning, the second daughter of the Shen family."

Xie Linyuan frowned slightly.

"she?"

He waved his right hand, signaling Mo Yu to stop.

"Madam Ye, your son has lost a finger, so he will no longer need to leave the manor."

"If I see him in Yanjing in the future, I will not show him any mercy."

"Mo Yu, let's go."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Xie Linyuan waved his dark robe and hurriedly left the Ye family with a group of guards.

After the large crowd left, Old Madam Ye walked up to Wang Shi and slapped her across the face.

"You're completely foolish... Ning'er saved Huai'er's life tonight, and now you're betraying her."

Wang lowered her head and began to sob.

"Mother, I was wrong, but what can I do? Am I just supposed to watch Huai'er die?"

"Who is that Regent? How could our Ye family possibly afford to offend him?"

"My daughter-in-law knows she's wronged Ning'er, but I was forced into this situation."

Old Madam Ye retorted angrily, "So what?"

"Who is Xie Linyuan? He might not even know Ning'er died at his hands!"

"Madam." Just as the group was arguing, the old nanny from Madam Ye's courtyard rushed over.

"Madam, Miss Shen has left. Please give this letter to you."

"Why did this child leave at this time? Quickly... quickly send someone to follow him."

The old woman sighed, "The young lady has been gone for quite a while now."

"We still need to send people to chase after them, hurry!"

"Yes, Madam!" The old nanny immediately withdrew and arranged for the Ye family guards to prepare horses to chase after Shen Ning.

After Wang and Ye Ronghua helped Ye Huai back to his room, they found a doctor to treat him.

But Madam Ye couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

When Ning'er arrived, she was dressed in thin clothes and had few decent clothes on her.

"Tomorrow, our Ye family will send someone to the Shen family to see what the young lady is lacking. We must not let her suffer any grievances in the Shen family."

Wang sobbed, "I will make the arrangements."

"If it weren't for Ning'er today, Huai'er would probably have died at the hands of that madman. I just don't know if the Second Miss will hold a grudge against me."

Madam Ye sighed, "The Regent and Yan'er have always had some relationship, so he shouldn't make things difficult for Ning'er."

Madam Ye slowly opened the letter in her hand, her brows furrowing slightly.

"There is a traitor within the Ye family."
