Chapter 1365: Testing Hearts

him to it. If he can persuade the siblings not to cause trouble, that's for the best. If he can't, then it's just their fate."After this, if those two are still restless, show them no mercy.Yun Si sl...Why would you let yourself become like this

I don't know what he was thinking, Ye Er smirked, "Of course, it's to...test people's hearts."

What

Test people's hearts

Who tests one's heart

The guard still didn't understand, but Ye Er wasn't giving him a chance to ask any questions.

Ye Er took the bowl of medicine from his hand, tested the temperature, and after confirming it was drinkable, gulped it down in one go.

The guard had no time to stop them and could only watch helplessly as the adults drank the medicine in advance.

Ye Ermian expressionlessly passed the bowl to his guard, then took a square handkerchief from his waist and handed it to him. Under the guard's puzzled look, he explained, "Take some of the medicine residue from the kitchen and put it in the handkerchief."

“...”

Why is that again

Their elders' every move was truly perplexing, but the guards ultimately chose to remain silent and uninvolved.

Anyway, even if I ask, they won't explain it to me.

The guard, following Ye Er's instructions, filled the pouch with medicinal residue. When he handed the kerchief to Ye Er, she immediately placed it in the secret pocket of her sleeve.

“...”

He held back, again and again, but ultimately couldn't help but remind him, "Sir, with this thing on you, the smell of medicine is really very strong."

"That's exactly the effect I was going for."

After saying that, he turned and walked out without a word of explanation.

The guard had to suppress his curiosity and quickly followed.

……

And meanwhile, the steward had already invited Lord and Lady Anle to the drawing-room.

Mrs. Hou's face was very gloomy. She was already very dissatisfied that Ye Er had not personally gone to the gate to greet them, and now that they had arrived, she still couldn't see Ye Er or Ye San.

He sure has a big ego.

The lord didn't seem to have any displeasure, nor did he notice his wife's complexion. Right now, all he could think about was how to get Ye Er to agree to help without requiring Xiao Qin to make a sacrifice.

He still vividly remembered how excited and thrilled Xiao Qin was when she broke off her engagement with Ye Er, so he knew for sure that Xiao Qin didn't want to marry Ye Er at all.

He desperately wanted his sons to return to Beijing, but he didn't want to sacrifice his daughter's happiness.

He racked his brains, but couldn't figure out how he could possibly help Ye Er.

Now Ye Er occasionally receives imperial rewards, and the Ye family already had considerable assets, so their wealth surpasses even the An'anle Hou Mansion.

Therefore, giving money is not a viable option.

Should Xiaoqin really marry him now

The Marquis of Anle became increasingly agitated. He let out a soft sigh and raised his hand to rub his temples.

Lady Hòu merely gave him a cool glance, knowing what was troubling him. But today, her purpose for coming was firm.

Today, no one can stand in her way.

Just this Ye Er, actually made them wait for so long. He really thinks of himself as something special, doesn't he

Unless he had been recently graced with divine favor, he... wouldn't amount to anything.

"You people..."

Housekeeper interrupted her before she could speak, bowing. "Our master has arrived."

Lady Hou frowned and instinctively looked toward the door. Anle Hou also looked toward the door.

Ye Er took slow, labored steps towards them, as if each step was a heavy burden.

Ye Fu's steward was taken aback, thinking to himself, "When I saw them earlier, the master's complexion wasn't rosy, but it wasn't this pale either!"

He looked worried and wanted to step forward to help his master, but then he saw the bodyguard beside his master quickly give him a look.

That was a reassuring look.

The housekeeper's heart dropped instantly, and after a moment of thought, she realized it was her own nerves getting the better of her.

If the adults were truly in any danger, their guards wouldn't be so calm and collected following behind them without even offering assistance.

The Marquis and Marchioness of Anle were obviously taken aback by Ye Er's physical condition.

They have always known that the second son of the Ye family was frail, and there were many rumors about him not living past his thirtieth year.

At this rate, it's hard to say if he'll even make it through the year, let alone reach middle age. Ye Er's condition is dire.ould protect Zhao Li and Zhao Si and the others.As for everything that the father and son had done, Mo Yunjing would not judge. After a moment of silence, he said again, "I accept Qingyun Pavilion. Do...
