Su Yunmo's eyelids twitched. She had always thought this woman was not very bright, but now she felt even more so.
It was his business who Ye Jingyu liked, and it was her business who she wanted to break off her engagement with.
How did she manage to force together a relationship that was so utterly unrelated?
Seeing Su Yunmo remain silent, Jiang Qinyue assumed she had tacitly agreed.
"I warn you, be sensible and stay away from Prince Yu. Furthermore, from now on, I will not allow you to enter Prince Yu's manor. Otherwise, I'll make you pay!"
Jiang Qinyue pointed at Su Yunmo and said fiercely, "I'm not threatening you; I'm telling you the truth!"
Although this brat was the legitimate daughter of the General's manor, people in the martial world were everywhere.
If she were pushed too far, she would directly find the most famous assassin organization, the one called Blood Alliance, and have them kill this brat!
Her father's Moon Gazing Pavilion was also very famous in the martial world. If her father stepped in, she believed the Blood Alliance would definitely accept the job.
At that time, Su Yunmo, that brat, would truly be dead!
"Allow? Do you have the right to utter the word 'allow' to me?" Su Yunmo narrowed her eyes dangerously, a flash of red light suddenly appearing in their depths.
This reminded Jiang Qinyue of the blood-colored pupils she had seen before.
"Before I lose my temper, you'd better leave on your own. If you force me to act, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as just being kicked out of the General's manor."
She could tolerate her once or twice, all for the sake of Ye Jingyu.
But enough was enough. Did this woman really think she was someone important to her?
Anyway, Uncle Dong's intelligence network was already very comprehensive. Even without the Moon Gazing Pavilion, she was confident that she would eventually gather all the information about everything happening in the capital.
This would not delay Ye Jingyu's affairs.
"What do you want? I don't believe you'd dare do anything to me!" Although Jiang Qinyue felt fear, she didn't want to lose face in front of Su Yunmo.
She puffed out her chest, as if to bolster her courage, "Prince Yu is mine, and I absolutely will not allow you to covet him!"
She had known the Prince since she was very young.
At that time, she was accidentally captured by her father's enemy, stuffed into a sack, and thrown into a lake, nearly drowning.
It was the Prince who saved her as he passed by. If not for him, she would have died long ago.
Coupled with the fact that her father later began to serve the Prince, over time she increasingly realized the man's extraordinary capabilities.
She would marry no one but him. That man was hers. She had finally made her way through the martial world to be by his side.
How could she let a little brat snatch the position that rightfully belonged to her?
Seeing her so brazen, Su Yunmo suddenly felt disinclined to speak with her.
To say another word to such a person was an insult to her intelligence.
As it happened, Luoluo came to see if Su Yunmo had woken up and brought her hot tea.
Su Yunmo took the hot tea and dismissed her, "Go and throw this person out of the General's manor. Also, tell the housekeeper that from now on, if she wants to see me, no matter the reason, she is not to be allowed into the manor." xxs1
"Yes." Luoluo was no longer the timid maid who had just arrived by Su Yunmo's side.
Su Yunmo issued the command, and she obediently went to pull Jiang Qinyue.
Although Jiang Qinyue was from the martial world, due to her delicate health since childhood, she had not practiced martial arts.
Therefore, even Luoluo, who usually did the dirty and strenuous work, was stronger than her. She dragged her out.
Jiang Qinyue stumbled, half-running, half-following as Luoluo pulled her out of the courtyard.
Even from a distance, she still yelled unwillingly.
"Su Yunmo, you just wait! I won't let this go, you just wait!"
"Mm, I'll wait for you." Su Yunmo took a sip of her tea as she pleased, then stretched, feeling incredibly comfortable.
Alright, next was to deal with Luo Yinfeng.
After much thought, she felt she should start from the top.
The matter of Prince Yun Zun was a good starting point.
"Miss, something's happened!" Luoluo ran in from outside, looking flustered, completely different from when she was dragging Jiang Qinyue out.
Su Yunmo frowned, "What is it?"
"This servant is not entirely sure. Anyway, when I got to the entrance just now, that woman still wanted to rush in. I just stopped her, and she fell!"
Luoluo, flustered, spoke incoherently, her meaning conveyed in two sentences.
"After she fell, no matter how I called her, she wouldn't respond. It's as if she's dead!"
Su Yunmo knitted her brows fiercely.
Jiang Qinyue was, after all, the daughter of the Pavilion Master of Moon Gazing Pavilion. If she got angry and beat her or hit her, it would be fine.
But this person absolutely could not die!
If there was only the Moon Gazing Pavilion, it would be one thing, but this might be a case of pulling one thread and affecting the whole situation.
Judging by the situation yesterday morning, Jiang Qinyue must have been staying at the Prince's manor.
If Ye Jingyu's subordinates knew that Jiang Qinyue had died just a few days after being brought to the Prince's manor, what would they think of Ye Jingyu!
Su Yunmo understood the implications of the situation. She placed the half-finished cup of tea on the table, jumped off the ground, and followed Luoluo out with large strides.
At this hour, everyone was taking their afternoon nap. There were few people on the road, and the servants in the manor hadn't noticed that there was still a person on the steps.
"Miss, please hurry and take a look." Luoluo was also a little panicked. Although she could carry out the miss's orders unconditionally, she really couldn't handle killing someone.
Su Yunmo first quickly examined Jiang Qinyue's complexion, then knelt down to check her pulse.
"How is it?" Luoluo asked nervously.
"What's going on?" Su Yunmo frowned, puzzled.
She released her hand from checking the pulse, then grasped it again and checked it several times before confirming, "She's fine. There's nothing wrong with her body."
Luoluo was now confused, "If she's fine, then why did she faint? She didn't look like she was faking it."
Perhaps the miss was afraid of her worrying, so she hadn't told her the truth.
Su Yunmo was indeed telling the truth. In fact, she herself was a little puzzled. This was the first time she had encountered such a case.
It was true that Jiang Qinyue's body was fine, and it was also true that she had fainted.
This didn't seem like an illness, but rather...
A strange look flashed in Su Yunmo's eyes. She grasped Jiang Qinyue's wrist again and sent her innate ability into it.
Suddenly, another strange power surged from within Jiang Qinyue.
Su Yunmo's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately realized something was wrong, but it was already too late.
That peculiar power, like a fire dragon, flowed along Jiang Qinyue's body and rapidly entered Su Yunmo's body, burning her to ashes.
Su Yunmo grunted. Just as she was about to remind Luoluo to be careful, she felt her body suddenly stiffen, unable to move.
The next second, her vision went black, and she fainted.
"Miss!" Luoluo caught her in time, preventing her from rolling down the steps.
But even so, Luoluo was startled.
At this moment, Jiang Qinyue slowly woke up.
Just as Luoluo was about to ask her what was going on, two figures in black suddenly descended from the sky.
One of them grabbed Su Yunmo and turned to flee, while the other reached out to stop Luoluo.
"Help! Help! Miss has been taken!" Luoluo cried out in panic, but it was already too late.
The man holding Su Yunmo had already disappeared.
At this moment, Linlang heard the commotion and ran out of the courtyard.
Seeing that more people were gathering, the man in black blocking Luoluo did not linger and quickly fled.
Linlang rushed over, "Luoluo, what happened?"
Although Luoluo was also confused about the situation, she recounted everything as completely as possible.
Linlang's gaze fell on Jiang Qinyue, and she instinctively felt that this matter was inseparable from Prince Kun's manor.
"Hurry and get the carriage ready. I need to take this person to Prince Yu's manor!"
Luoluo was terrified by the scene just now. Now that someone had a plan, how could she not listen? She quickly did as Linlang said.
Linlang then took Jiang Qinyue, who was half-asleep and half-conscious, towards Prince Yu's manor.
Meanwhile, Su Yunmo opened her eyes and found her hands and feet bound. She was on a bed in some sleeping quarters.
Her mouth was stuffed with cloth, and except for her eyes, nothing was covered. Her treatment was basically the same as Su Sizhuo's that day.
"Mmm!" She tried to struggle, but found her whole body weak.
Damn it, was the thing on Jiang Qinyue's body really an innate ability?
If so, then the one who kidnapped her was Leng Lingyun?
No! Perhaps it should be...
The door opened, and a man entered from outside.
"Momo, you're awake so soon. I thought you wouldn't wake up until tonight." Ye Jingyu entered with a bowl in his hand.
