Good Intention (2)

However, as Princess Consort Rui, Shen Miao still had to go and see the Ye family.2

In the main hall, Madam Ye was talking to Ye Ke. Ye Mei sat at the side and smiled. Ye Maocai raised his head slightly, as if he was saying something, and in front of him sat Xie Jingxing.

Xie Jingxing was wearing a silver-purple robe. Perhaps because his injuries were not fully healed, his sitting posture was lazy. He listened to Ye Maocai with a faint smile, but no one could tell what he was thinking.

When Shen Miao came in, the first person to see her was Ye Mei. Ye Mei quickly stood up and bowed to her, but Ye Ke did not move. Now that they were already the children of the Ye family, their statuses had risen, so they naturally did not have to bow to the princess consort like before.

However, when Ye Mei bowed, Shen Miao didn't even look at her. A trace of displeasure flashed across Madam Ye's eyes.

Shen Miao walked to the other side and sat at the head of the table beside Xie Jingxing. Ye Maocai stood up and said, "Princess Consort Rui, thank you for taking care of my children these days."

Shen Miao smiled. "Miss Ye and Young Master Ye are His Highness's saviors. I should be the one thanking them."

Just as Ye Maocai was about to bid goodbye, Shen Miao changed the topic and asked in confusion, "However, how did Miss Li and Young Master Li become Miss Ye and Young Master Ye? It's a little surprising that the family they're looking for is the Ye family."

When she said that, Xie Jingxing was playing with the teacup in his hand. He did not stop her, nor did he echo her, as if he just wanted to watch a show. Ye Maocai was a little uncertain about Xie Jingxing's attitude. He hesitated for a moment and said with a smile, "It happened more than ten years ago. At that time, my wife gave birth to two children, but the midwife was instructed by someone to steal my children and replace them with a baby girl who died prematurely. All these years, we've been investigating in secret. This time, the two of them entered Long Ye, and it was an accident that we found them." Ye Maocai had an honest look and looked like a scholar. When he spoke, people subconsciously found it convincing. He looked at Shen Miao and continued, "Although Mei and Ke saved His Highness, our Ye family are still grateful that we could reunite because of this."

"That's right." Madam Ye smiled. Ever since Shen Miao met Madam Ye, this was the first time she had seen her smile so happily, as if she was happy from the bottom of her heart. No one would suspect that Ye Mei and Ye Ke were her missing children.

However, Shen Miao didn't think so. How did two people from Ming Qi end up becoming people of the Daliang Dynasty in this life? The relationship between them was probably not that simple.

Ye Mei and Ye Ke sat at the side. Ye Mei was beautiful, and Ye Ke was smart. One look and one could tell that they were rare talents. What was even rarer was that they were careful and did not behave rudely and arrogantly simply because they were Prince Rui's savior.

That made sense. Fu Xiuyi was such a smart and cold person. He was so selfish that he did not even hesitate to kill his own children, but he doted on Consort Mei so much. It was obvious that she had tricks up her sleeve.
