Chapter 10: If She Does Not Wish For It, No One Has the Ability to Force Her

“The empress died from childbirth, how could she sign the testimony?” Ben Lei questioned.

“That’s her handwriting, if she did not wish for it, no one has the ability to force her.” The brush in Ye Jun Qing’s hand drew slender strokes, the touch was very light. Yao Mo Wan took this sight in, knowing that he didn’t harbor the slightest grudge. But the more Ye Jun Qing was like this, the more her heart ached.

“Even if wangye doesn’t want to disappoint the empress, you still need not put up with the emperor’s intolerable actions! Wangye probably understands even more clearly than this subordinate. This time’s defeat was completely engineered by the emperor!” Ben Lei angrily spoke.

“If not for the defeat, ben wang wouldn’t have any reasons to be in a drunken stupor and only if ben wang is in a drunken stupor would he agree not to make that testimony public to the world and give the empress a proper funeral.” Ye Jun Qing set down his brush and lightly blew on the picture, his eyes exuded difficult to conceal yearning and longing.

“Wangye! How much have you already given this woman in this lifetime! But she only knows to protect that incapable ruler, even in her death she still thought to use that testimony to control you, she owes you too much!!” Ben Lei’s eyes turned red as thistle as he angrily roared. His hands ferociously reached towards the picture scroll but was pushed several meters back by Ye Jun Qing’s strike and knocked into the white marble pillar.

“Wangye!” Ben Lei mournfully cried.

“You should go. Ben wang‘s status is particular. If you come so often, according to Ye Hong Yi’s personality, he definitely won’t let you off.” Ye Jun Qing restrained the hurt in his eyes and spoke apathetically.

“Wangye is willing to be trampled on by that incapable ruler, but Ben Lei isn’t willing to be humiliated! Even being a farmer to hoe the fields would be better than sacrificing your life for that incapable ruler! Wangye take care, Ben Lei takes his leave!” Men have tears but they do not fall easily. Yet at this time Ben Lei’s cheeks were already streaming with tears.

In front of the table, Yao Mo Wan’s beautiful eyes lowered and she bit her teeth. The pain in her heart rolled like waves. How much did she truly owe Ye Jun Qing?

Just as Yao Mo Wan was in the midst of deep sorrow, her jade wrist was suddenly grasped by Ben Lei.

“What are you grabbing her for?” Ye Jun Qing’s sharp brows creased as he asked.

“She heard everything in the conversation just now, this woman cannot be left alive!” Ben Lei used his sleeve to wipe away the tears at the corners of his eyes and replied prudently. Yao Mo Wan was extremely speechless, suddenly having the sort of miserable feeling like she could get shot by arrows even while lying down.

“Let her go, ben wang trusts that she will not tell.” Not waiting for Yao Mo Wan to react, the other hand had already been seized by Ye Jun Qing.

“Wangye! Please listen to this subordinate this once!” Ben Lei crossed gazes with Ye Jun Qing, speaking almost as if he were pleading.

“Ben wang said she won’t so she definitely won’t. You should go!” Ye Jun Qing’s insistence allowed Yao Mo Wan to secretly sigh a breath of relief. Ben Lei didn’t speak, his copper bell-like eyes glared fiercely at Yao Mo Wan.

At this moment, Yao Mo Wan looked calmly at Ben Lei and didn’t speak a single word. She just knew that the more you speak the more mistakes, the less you speak the less mistakes, if you don’t speak, there are no mistakes. After a few seconds of confrontation, Ben Lei suddenly flung away Yao Mo Wan’s wrist and furiously left.

Looking at Ben Lei’s back figure, Yao Mo Wan’s lips lifted in an almost imperceptible curve. Ben Lei left because Ye Jun Qing was here, if Ye Jun Qing was not here……

At this point, Yao Mo Wan was still grateful that there was such a loyal and devoted helper by Ye Jun Qing’s side. She owes Ye Jun Qing too much. One day, she will give Ye Jun Qing the mountains and rivers of great Chu.

“There are very few woman like you that remain calm in the face of events.” Seeing Ben Lei leave, Ye Jun Qing indifferently released Yao Mo Wan’s hand and walked to the table, lightly stroking the picture.

“So wangye believes Jing Xin has received special training, that’s why she would show up here?” Yao Mo Wan picked up the ink stick again and asked, seemingly unconcerned. But a flash of pain streaked through her heart. So it turns out this time when they met again, Ye Jun Qing actually thought she was a spy sent by Ye Hong Yi to monitor him.

“Is it not it?” Ye Jun Qing did not deny.

“Then why did wangye allow that general just now say such disgraceful things?” Yao Mo Wan was a bit flabbergast and looked questioningly at Ye Jun Qing.

“Ye Hong Yi’s target is ben wang. As long as ben wang doesn’t harbor dissatisfaction it’s enough, no?” Ye Jun Qing seemed to have some deep meaning as he looked towards Yao Mo Wan. The unspoken implication was that if he tried to stop him, she would already have been cut into pieces by Ben Lei.

“Jing Xin will just return the favor to wangye.” Yao Mo Wan accepted the misunderstanding and just went with it, continuing to grind the ink.

Just then, Steward Zhuo suddenly rushed over. Behind him a furious eunuch from the palace was following him. Yao Mo Wan recognized that eunuch, it was An Bing Shan that followed beside Ye Hong Yi. His conduct was acid, with honeyed words and a sword in the belly, he was hypocritical and murderous. Even though he was an eunuch and was born infertile, but countless palace maids died in his hands. At those times he defended himself with Ye Hong Yi’s prestige and was never punished. Thinking back to it now, it truly was what type of master must have that type of servant.
