Chapter 1103 (Conditions!)
After all, Ye Juetian hesitated, and if he had spoken without hesitation just now, she would have been quite happy.
"Big brother, can we talk privately?" Ye Juetian looked at Ye Hua and said, with pleading eyes.
Ye Hua nodded, "Sure!"
The two brothers walked outside, and Ye Hua waved his hand. All the palace maids bowed and left.
"Speak your mind," Ye Hua lit a cigarette.
Ye Juetian looked at his big brother smoking and said, "Big brother, can I have one too?"
Ye Hua glanced at Ye Juetian and handed one over.
Ye Juetian took a puff and immediately choked.
"Kids shouldn't smoke," Ye Hua said lightly, exhaling a puff of smoke.
Ye Juetian sighed inwardly. In his big brother's eyes, was he still a kid?
Both brothers stood outside, surrounded by smoke.
Ye Juetian threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it out, and said in a deep voice, "Big brother, I can marry Gong Yue!"
"What conditions?" Ye Hua asked lightly. Although he hadn't been with his younger brother for long, he knew there must be a purpose for wanting to talk alone.
"Can you let Yi Yi go?" Ye Juetian pleaded.
This might be his only chance, the only opportunity to save Yi Yi.
Ye Hua already knew it would be this condition.
"What, not giving up yet?" Ye Hua asked indifferently.
Of course, Ye Juetian wouldn't give up, but he couldn't say it now.
"Big brother, this is my only request. Let her leave the palace. Whether she is a spy or not, she won't harm us anymore," Ye Juetian said in a deep voice.
"Little Tian, she has shortened mother's lifespan. Do you think big brother can easily let her leave the palace?" Ye Hua said coldly, a coldness shining in his eyes.
Ye Juetian didn't know how to plead anymore; he could only say with a forced tone, "Big brother, I'm begging you. Just let her go this time, and in the future, I promise to listen to you!"
After hearing this, Ye Hua remained silent, took out another cigarette, and began to smoke.
After a long time, he said lightly, "Fine! Big brother can agree to your request!"
"Really?" Ye Juetian felt a burst of joy; unexpectedly, his big brother agreed.
"But I won't let her go!" Ye Hua said coldly.
"Why?" Ye Juetian was puzzled; what difference did it make?
Ye Hua spoke in a low voice, "Huang Fei sent Yi Yi. If I release her like this, what's the difference between surrendering and admitting defeat? I want to see what else this Yi Yi can do!"
Hearing his big brother's words, Ye Juetian's heart sank a bit. His big brother was fighting Huang Fei, and Yi Yi was just a pawn in the middle.
"What do you think? If you agree, your big brother can arrange it now," Ye Hua said indifferently. Yi Yi definitely couldn't be released; not killing her was already a kind of mercy from him. Wanting her out of the palace? That was absolutely impossible! He had thought about it for a lifetime! Unless she died!
Ye Juetian fell into contemplation. Although she couldn't leave the palace, it was still better than being locked in the dungeon.
In any case, his big brother would arrange for him to get married in the future. Why not strive for small opportunities?
After all, keeping Yi Yi locked in the dungeon was also a kind of punishment. Did he want Yi Yi to stay in the dungeon for the rest of her life?
"Alright, big brother, I promise you!" Ye Juetian said in a deep voice.
Ye Hua nodded and then asked, "Do you hate big brother?"
"Little Tian knows that everything big brother does is for my own good." Ye Juetian didn't lie with this statement. He understood this reasoning.
Ye Hua was very pleased, patted Ye Juetian's shoulder, and said, "Little Tian, live well with Gong Yue in the future. If you want a woman, big brother can help you find one, but you must keep your eyes open! Don't be tempted by beauty; the enemy is cunning!"
"Yeah, big brother, I know." Ye Juetian nodded; at this point, he could only do this.
"Alright, go inside," Ye Hua said softly and then walked into the room.
Seeing the two brothers walk in, Le Jing smiled and asked, "What secret are you talking about? Can't let us know?"
Gong Yue bit her lip lightly, clenching her hands, looking very nervous. Although she didn't know what they were talking about, it must be related to getting married.
"Mother." Ye Juetian respectfully called.
"Yes?"
"Mother, I want to marry Gong Yue!" Ye Juetian spoke up.
Gong Yue was stunned after hearing this, staring at Ye Juetian in disbelief.
Le Jing also lost her focus. Little Tian had grown up and started to be sensible.
And Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi felt that the two brothers must have reached some agreement outside.
Otherwise, Ye Juetian wouldn't have agreed so readily. As for what agreement they made, it should be related to Yi Yi.
"Good, good thing! Ye Hua, I leave Little Tian's wedding to you," Le Jing said happily. She was satisfied to be able to see her youngest son get married in her lifetime.
Ye Hua said softly, "Mother, rest assured, I will arrange a grand ceremony!"
At this moment, Gong Yue was very excited. Regardless of the deal between Ye Juetian and his big brother, she finally officially entered the Ye family, which was more practical than anything else.
Ye Juetian respectfully said, "I appreciate the efforts of Mother, Big Brother, and Sisters-in-law for my affairs."
Le Jing lightly laughed, "Little Tian, don't be so polite in the family. I also need to make arrangements. What should I prepare?"
Ye Hua looked at his mother's joy and felt relieved.
However, the matter of agreeing to his brother, Ye Hua would also fulfil.
Yi Yi would be released, but she would definitely not take care of his mother. After all, there was only one vial of medicine left, and he couldn't risk Yi Yi depleting it. That way, his mother would truly die.
With Daji watching, he was also reassured.
As for Yi Yi's arrangement, let her go to the firewood room. She couldn't cause any major trouble.
With this decision Ye Hua began making arrangements.
In the dungeon.
These days, Yi Yi has become thinner, as if showing signs of depression, looking gloomy every day.
Because Yi Yi was waiting for Ye Juetian to confess every day. However, every time they communicated, Yi Yi would be disappointed. Ye Juetian had no intention of saying anything, and no matter how she hinted, he would change the topic.
"Time to eat!" Just as Yi Yi was in a daze, a palace maid brought in food. Looking at the dishes, it seemed like leftovers.
There was even a strange smell, as if it had gone bad.
There was no way around it; Yi Yi attracted jealousy.
"Thank you." Yi Yi remained polite. No matter how others treated her, she always maintained her original intention and didn't compete with others.
The palace maid snorted, "How come you weren't beaten to death by Prince Ye? You're still alive, it's really a miracle."
Yi Yi took the food from below.
But when the palace maid saw that Yi Yi ignored her, she became furious.
She kicked the food, and it even splashed onto Yi Yi's hand. That small hand slammed into the iron rod, and the pain made Yi Yi break out in a cold sweat.
