Chapter 742: Conspiracy (2)

Ji Fengyan looked at Ye Yuan with a warm feeling in her heart. She was not that close to Ye Yuan or Ji Ru, but they had chosen to stand on her side at this moment.

“Tutor, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave now,” Ji Fengyan said.

Ye Yuan nodded.

Ji Fengyan exited respectfully and closed the door behind her.

Still standing guard outside, Linghe immediately stepped forward the minute he saw Ji Fengyan emerge.

“Mistress, what happened?”

Ji Fengyan said, “Bring everyone out of the city now. Wait for me at the royal cemetery outside the city.”

“Ah?” Linghe was momentarily stunned.

What was Ji Fengyan intending to do?

Linghe wanted to ask further, but Ji Fengyan did not wish to say more. Linghe had no choice but to do as he was told. Ji Fengyan also departed.

Shortly after Ji Fengyan left, Ji Ru appeared outside Ye Yuan’s room. He entered to see Ye Yuan packing up.

“Have you explained everything to her?” Ji Ru asked Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan gave a bitter laugh. “Your granddaughter is stubborn. I already laid everything out clearly for her, but that girl refused to accept our arrangements.”

Ji Ru frowned and looked conflicted.

Ye Yuan patted Ji Ru’s shoulder.

“In the end, you just can’t bear the sacrifice. But the Emperor would be enraged if she left. He would immediately know that the Ji family had leaked the news. By then, you wouldn’t be able to protect the Ji family even if you tried.”
