Qun Xuan glanced at Han Ye, clad in a night-traveling outfit, and said sternly, "Ye’er, after all that has happened, do you still not trust me? If you don’t tell me exactly what’s going on, I’m not leaving."
Caught in an internal struggle, Han Ye vividly remembered the crown prince’s admonitions, yet his master was also a person of great importance to him.
Eventually, he revealed the mission he was tasked with.
Qun Xuan scoffed, "So, this was the reason Nangong Li initially entered the palace. The crown prince speaks eloquently, claiming he doesn’t want to implicate the Han Family, but in the end, isn’t he still sacrificing the heir of the Han Family?"
Han Ye said, "Master, you need to leave quickly and hide for a while."
Qun Xuan sighed, "It’s too late to hide. You were caught red-handed killing the emperor’s grandson today. It wouldn’t matter if the sovereign didn’t recognize you, but he did, as did the eunuch Zhang, didn’t he? From this moment on, not even a fly could escape from Shengdu’s inner city."
Han Ye clenched his fists in frustration.
Qun Xuan asked, "No one outside knows I taught you swordsmanship, right?"
Han Ye shook his head, "Master, you secretly taught me martial arts and told me not to even tell my father. I never mentioned it to anyone. They all think I’m just learning Hidden Weapon techniques from you."
Qun Xuan said, "While they still might suspect you, I’ll try my best."
Han Ye exclaimed, "Master!"
Qun Xuan smiled, "Starting today, I will leave the Han Family. Afterward, do not contact me or try to find me."
"It’s useless."
Han Yong, Han Ye’s second uncle, strode in.
Han Ye’s expression changed, "Second Uncle!"
Han Yong said, "I heard everything you’ve said. Now, would you like to hear what I’ve got to say?" freёweɓnovel.com
