Yang Wanyu felt a little comforted after seeing her brother, so she immediately told him what had happened in the past few days. “Chengsen, what do you think we should do now?”
“Father was really jailed?”
“Yes, but the announcement didn’t mention anything about Father. 1 don’t know if he’ll come out.”
“Let’s hurry up and find Prince Hui. We can’t let Grandmother and Mother really be executed.
“If that happens, it will affect our future.”
Yang Wanyu froze for a moment. Although she agreed with his words, she still reprimanded him straight-faced, “At a time like this, you’re still thinking about your future.”
“What else can we do? We must think of a way to save them as soon as possible.”
After Yang Wanyu heard this, her face was filled with reluctance. If she were to go, it would significantly lower her position in Prince Hui’s residence.
“Hurry up. If father gets a stepmother, we won’t have it good in the future.” After Yang Chengsen finished speaking, he dragged her out.
When Yang Wanyu heard the word ‘stepmother’, she remembered Yang Wanning’s treatment and finally followed him out.
Yang Chenglin anxiously ran into Yang Wanning’s small courtyard, stunned to see his sister sitting in her room leisurely drinking tea. He asked unhappily, “Sis, why are you still in the mood to drink tea?”
Yang Wanning ignored him and poured him a cup of tea. “Drink some tea to moisten your throat.”
Yang Chenglin sat in annoyance when he saw her acting like nothing had happened. Still, he picked up his teacup.
The tea was scalding hot and almost burned his tongue off. In addition, his trembling hand spewed some tea, scalding it; his cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
Yang Wanning put down her teacup and said, “Don’t worry. The tea is a little hot, but it won’t burn your hand. It’ll be fine.”
“You…”
“Don’t you understand? If you’re in a hurry, you won’t even be able to drink a cup of tea properly.”
Yang Chengsen jolted and asked thoughtfully, “Sis, what do you mean?”
“You came back because of Grandmother and Mother’s execution tomorrow, right?”
“Yes, there are also people who say Father has been jailed.”
“That’s right. Father was taken away yesterday.” Yang Wanning gestured for him to sit down and told him what had happened in the past few days. “I’m sure you’ve heard that the Emperor handwrote this announcement. When have you heard that the Emperor changes an imperial edict?
“If I’m right, the Cui Family must have harmed many people through their loan shark business. Therefore, it was useless to plead for mercy.
“As for your father, since the announcement did not mention him, he’s fine for now.
“Moreover, his mother will be executed tomorrow. As her son, he would have to collect her corpse, so he would most likely come back tomorrow.”
“But…”
At this moment, Chunxi walked in and said, “Miss, I heard that the Second Miss and the Second Young Master went to plead with Prince Hui.”
“See, someone is more anxious than us. We just have to wait.” Yang Wanning concluded.
“But we… Father will blame us when he comes out.”
“Chunxi, stand guard outside. Don’t let outsiders get close.” Yang Wanning said this to Chunxi after hearing this.
“Yes, Miss.” After saying that, Chunxi turned around and walked out.
Only then did Yang Wanning tell him that Mrs. Cui had asked someone to put flecks of Hardy Ice Plant in her tea. She added, “You also know that although our mother’s body isn’t well, she isn’t weak to the point where a cold will kill her.
“So I suspect that mother might also have ingested some Hardy Ice Plant;
that’s why…”
