I have suffered enough in my previous life, my cousin will never marry me

Chapter 127 Dispute
Ye Wanshu's eyes glared, "You think I don't dare?"

Thinking of his cruelty and heartlessness in his previous life, and how he was now destroying her marriage time and time again, refusing to let her have peace and comfort, Ye Wanshu suddenly raised her sword and chopped it down fiercely.

"stop."

Ji Yuan, who had just arrived, was so frightened by the situation that his face turned pale and he shouted hurriedly.

Ting Feng was quick-witted and quick-handed. He threw the sword in his hand and knocked the sword out of Ye Wanshu's hand.

"Wanwan, you can't dirty your hands for him."

Ji Yuan stepped forward to stop Ye Wanshu. Seeing that the patrol camp had surrounded the entire West City, he guessed Gu Tingchen's intention.

This is to completely put Prince Yongning to death.

After taking a quick look at the piles of corpses all around, Ji Yuan closed his eyes, unable to hide his heartache.

Now, the royal family members in Lin'an City are fighting fiercely for the throne. I am afraid that only this man from Yuezhou is still thinking about the lives of the people.

"Wanwan, General Yan, we won't ask him for anything."

Ji Yuan rolled his eyes at Gu Tingchen with disdain and waved to his followers: "I have brought the imperial physician with me. You should quickly carry Prince Yongning down for treatment."

Ting Feng immediately helped Yan Jin up and took people to carry Fu Mingchi to leave.

But Gu Tingchen was not willing to give up. He snatched the sword from Liu Zhang's hand and fiercely put it on Ji Yuan's neck. He said in a rage, "Ji Yuan, do you really want to be an enemy of my Gu family?"

"This isn't something everyone knows. Could it be that Gu Erlang is the only one who knows about it?"

Ji Yuan looked at Ye Wanshu calmly and said softly, "Wanwan, go quickly. Saving His Highness is the most important thing."

Ye Wanshu nodded. Now that Qizhou City had the Yingzhou Army and Lin'an's Shenwei Army, she was not worried that Gu Tingchen would dare to act recklessly. She left with Yan Jin and Tingfeng without worry.

The guards quickly cleared out a courtyard nearby. Yan Jin led the imperial physician inside to check Fu Mingchi's wound. Ye Wanshu ordered people to guard every place closely. Not long after, Ji Yuan came over with Ting Feng and his entourage.

Ji Yuan had only received an urgent letter from the court in Lin'an. Hearing that a mutiny had broken out in Yuezhou, he was worried about a major disturbance and was even more afraid that the two bastards of the Gu family would hurt his daughter. So after discussing with the emperor, he rushed to Yuezhou.

But he never expected that the situation in Yuezhou had become so bad. Fortunately, he arrived in time.

Seeing his daughter's worried look, Ji Yuan hurried forward to comfort her, "Don't worry too much, Wanwan. Prince Yongning has been on the march and fighting for years, so he's in good health. He won't fall down so easily. That Imperial Physician Qian was the late emperor's former imperial physician, and his medical skills are superb. He will definitely cure Prince Yongning."

Upon hearing the name of Imperial Physician Qian, Ye Wanshu felt much more at ease.

This man was a gift from the late emperor to the Yongning Palace in his early years. He was considered a medical genius of the Daye Dynasty. If even he couldn't cure Fu Mingchi, I'm afraid no one would dare to boast of bringing Fu Mingchi back to life.

Just thinking about how Qizhou had become a dead city and was in urgent need of medicinal herbs, she quickly said, "Father, you stay here for me. I'll take people to find some herbs nearby."

Ji Yuan had already thought of this, and smiled soothingly, "Father mentioned this to Concubine Zhang when he came here. She has already sent people to Yuezhou to mobilize troops and raise all the necessary supplies. The medicinal materials will be delivered as soon as possible."

Ye Wanshu nodded thoughtfully. With Qizhou flooded, many nearby counties and prefectures were likely facing a period of hardship. Once the rain stopped, providing relief to the victims would be a pressing matter. Concubine Zhang had taken such precautions, demonstrating her thoughtfulness.

Just when she was secretly relieved, she suddenly saw Imperial Physician Qian walking out with a melancholy look on his face.

Ji Yuan hurriedly asked, "How is your Highness's injury?"

Imperial Physician Qian sighed, "Your Highness was previously wounded by a severe arrow, damaging his lungs. It hasn't healed yet, and he's been traveling and working tirelessly for days. I don't know how he managed to hold on until now, but now his Highness is barely breathing, his energy is running out, and it's difficult to treat him."

Zhu Wencai, who had just returned from killing the enemy in the east of the city, was stunned when he heard this.

Yu Bai, who was being supported by someone, felt his body soften and he knelt down, crying hoarsely, "It's all my fault. I failed to protect His Highness."

"How can you be blamed for this? You swore to defend Qizhou to the death. Ten thousand soldiers died fighting in the city, preventing the pirates from even a single step beyond Qizhou. This has saved millions of people from being harassed by pirates. What crime has General Yu committed?"

Zhu Wencai glared at Ye Wanshu fiercely, "I'd like to ask Miss Ye, my prince has been truly devoted to you ever since we first met in Lin'an. He's practically given you his heart. You've played him around time and time again, yet he's never once been angry with you."

"It's you, on the other hand, who's clinging to the cancellation of the engagement. Even though you knew His Highness was seriously injured, you still left him out in the rain for three days. How deep is your hatred for him?"

Yan Jin came out of the house and saw Zhu Wencai angrily accusing Ye Wanshu. He hurried forward to dissuade him, "General Zhu, please don't be rude to Miss Ye."

"Why, what did I say wrong?"

Zhu Wencai's eyes were filled with resentment. "If it weren't for her, why would His Highness rush back to Yuzhou and be ambushed by villains? If it weren't for her selfish motives, insisting on coming to Baixiang County, why would His Highness rush to Qizhou to fight the enemy?"

"General Zhu, the farmers in Baixiang County are not only tenants of the Ye family, but also citizens of Daye. Even if Miss Ye was not here, His Highness would have come to rescue them. How can you blame Miss Ye for this?" Yan Jin argued with him.

Ji Yuan was also quite dissatisfied when he heard this: "Prince Yongning is in such a state now, my daughter is also not feeling well. He is in a high position, so it is understandable that he would be plotted against. How can General Zhu put the blame for his own poor protection on my daughter?"

After hearing Mu Qingqing's explanation in the carriage, Ye Wanshu felt guilty for treating Fu Mingchi so cruelly in Taowu. However, she had no intention of explaining anything to Zhu Wencai now. She just hoped that Fu Mingchi would wake up.

She walked into the house in a daze. Everything around her was cold. Looking at the figure lying on the bed, Ye Wanshu felt particularly uncomfortable.

It was as if God was playing a very unfunny joke on her. It was Gu Tingchen who had betrayed her in her life, but she hurt another innocent person in the same way.

"Fu Mingchi, that day you asked Mother Yan to ask me if what I said at Qinglan Temple still counted. At that time, I just thought you were pretty and wanted to tease you, but I never thought you would take it seriously."

Slowly sitting down on the edge of the bed, Ye Wanshu stared at the pale face in front of her. Her eyes felt sore and filled with guilt.

"I never thought I'd meet someone as foolish as me in this life. I'm sure you were tormented as much as I was during those three days, right?"

"I was born without knowing how to love someone. I just feel that when someone is willing to treat me well, I want to repay them double. If this is what is called love, I really want to give it all to you, so that you won't have to suffer as much as I did before."

Ye Wanshu sat alone by the bed and murmured to herself for a long time. She didn't know when Ji Yuan walked in with a gloomy look on his face.

Seeing his daughter's dejected expression, Ji Yuan sighed inwardly, "Wanwan, even though that evil creature from the Gu family was a bit rude and rude, some of his words made sense. Prince Yongning is a descendant of the royal family, and since he has passed away, he should be buried and sent back to Lin'an as soon as possible. This is the best honor we can give him right now."

Walking slowly to her side, Ji Yuan advised, "Don't embarrass the soldiers in the palace. Respectfully send Prince Yongning and the heroic souls of the fallen soldiers back to Lin'an."
