an’s heart finally relaxed. Tao Shi went to arrange for people to help cook porridge, while Li Zhiyuan stood at the gate of the mansion, watching the constant stream of people at the porridge shed. He...Ye Wenyan smiled. 。The silver note, that's the one from Yanhuagong. 。That was Shili Yuan's hush money given to Ye Chulian, and Ye Chulian had predicted at the time that the silver note would definitely be stolen. 。The Second Madam's jealousy towards Qiao Shu Yuan had been going on for years, and her oppression of Qiao Shu Yuan had become second nature. 。Although Ye Chulian had her own courtyard, as the daughter of Liu Shi, she was looked down upon by the second mistress just like her mother. 。They knew it was only a matter of time before the silver notes would cause trouble, but they didn't expect it to happen so soon. 。Ye Wenyan nodded at Ye Chulian and even gave her an encouraging look. 。This scene happened to be seen by Ye Fei Zhou. As one of the people in the know, he naturally understood what this silent "silver note" from Ye Chu Lian meant. 。He glanced at Xiao Shi, then at Old Madam Xiao, silently lowered his head, indicating that he would not interfere in this matter. 。Ye Chu'lian was inspired, she stood up abruptly, pulled over the attendant who had just come to deliver the message, and the two knelt directly in the middle of the room. They bowed properly to the old madam first, then to Ye Wenyan. 。This stunned Old Madam Ye, and everyone in the room was equally dumbfounded. Old Madam Xiao and Xiao Shūbái forgot to cry and just listened to Ye Chulian kneeling there, her voice almost a shout: "Grandmother, something terrible has happened! My granddaughter lost a large sum of silver notes in my room!"Old Madam Ye couldn't have imagined that Ye Chulian would say such a thing, so she became interested: "How large is the sum"Ye Chulian replied: "One million taels!" The moment these words were uttered, the entire family shuddered. 。It's not that they are uneducated and think one million taels is a large sum. 。It's truly unexpected that Ye Chulian, a mere concubine's daughter, would possess so much silver. 。
Where did this silver come from
Even Lady Ye frowned and immediately scolded Ye Chulian: "Behave yourself! What are you making a fuss about at this juncture Even if you had one million taels, I wouldn't believe that you have so much silver!"
Come on, sit down quickly and cheer with the others. 。"He glared at Madam Liu again,
scaring her into quickly bowing her head. " 。Yet Ke Yechu refused to rise. She knelt there, her voice still booming: “Even one million taels, that’s the silver bills that Fourth Sister temporarily entrusted me with; today, I'll be taking them.” 。Who would have thought that just now, a maidservant from the courtyard came to report that the silver notes had been stolen. 。The granddaughter was really anxious and also felt guilty, so she just kowtowed to her fourth sister. 。Please grandma, help me look for it. 。Now that the family knew it could be Ye Wenyan's silver notes, they didn't find it strange anymore. 。After all, Ye Wen's abilities are widely recognized now, and he has some connections with many prominent figures. 。Besides, her household already had numerous presents. Gold, silver, and jewels were abundant. It was not surprising that she could offer a million taels of silver notes, nor that she would entrust them to the hands of her close friend, Fifth Sister, for safekeeping for a short time. 。Then there was only one mystery left: who stole the silver notesYe Chu Lian pulled at a maidservant kneeling beside her, and the maid immediately replied, “Your Honor, my mistress saw Fourth Sister come here to pay respects just now, so she asked me to go back to the room to retrieve the silver notes and return them to Fourth Sister...” 。To everyone's surprise, when I went to retrieve the silver note, it had vanished. 。Then I got worried and asked around the house, and I heard from a lady that she had already given the silver note to the second mistress. She told me not to look any further. 。Xiao Sh beyaz's brain exploded with a loud bang, and he suddenly remembered the silver note that the informant from Yun Yuan had passed him this morning. 。She didn't even bother to look at the amount when she knew her mother had arrived, so she quickly stuffed it into her sleeve and came over here. 。Is it just that silver note A hundred thousand taels Of course, how many taels there are no longer matters. What's important is that the silver note belongs to Ye Wenyan. How could this have happened "Ai..." 。Suddenly, a sigh was heard. People followed the sound and saw that it was Ye Wenyan who sighed. 。Just listen to Ye Wen sighing as he said, "We were just talking about how the Xiao family wouldn't raise their daughters properly, and yet they resort to such underhanded tactics." 。> 。Ye Qingmei leaned over at this time, and in a voice only the two of them could hear, asked Ye Wenyan, "Why have you been speaking for your second uncle all day Are you hoping that concubine will enter the house"Ye Wenyan smiled and replied in a low voice, "Whether she enters or not is a matter of the Second House, it has nothing to do with us." 。Similarly, whether or not someone can enter the door is also a matter for the second family. We want to control it but we can't. 。
My aunt-in-law isn't doing well right now. Perhaps it would be better to try someone else, maybe we could find some new breakthroughs.
" What new breakthrough" Night Qingmei asked, puzzled.Night Wenyan's eyes were covered with a layer of frost, "Just that...perhaps we can still extract some unknown secrets 。"
Lady Ye had already begun to question Xiao Shubi, “Did you take the silver from Wu’s room”
Xiao Shubi's face became even more unsightly
"Didn't you take someone else's silver" "I didn't!" Xiao Shubi also panicked, "I did receive a silver note. It was the maidservant from Chuyun Courtyard who found the silver note suspicious. After all, one million taels is a huge sum, they thought it was wrong, so they brought it to me..." 。This matter should have been clarified with the fifth young lady, but there's something else going on here, so it got delayed. 。She wasn't being coy either, and she knew that it was better to avoid trouble nowadays. Besides, the silver note belonged to Ye Wenyan; she couldn't keep it even if she wanted to. 。So she generously said, "The silver note is right here with me. Since it belongs to Fourth Miss, I'll just return it to her." 。She reached into her sleeve to take out the silver note, but after digging in again and again, she found that the silver note was nowhere to be found in her sleeve. 。Xiao Sh beyaz immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't care about his appearance anymore, so he directly flipped up his sleeve to look... 。But unfortunately, it was still gone. The silver note that she clearly had tucked into her sleeve pocket, had simply vanished without a trace. 。Ye Chu Lian waited for a while, seeing no further response, so she pressed, "Mother, what about the silver notes If they're truly with you, then please return them to Fourth Sister. Those silver notes came from Yanhuagong and have the Emperor's seal on them. This isn't something to be taken lightly." 。Xiao Shubi collapsed onto the ground, completely drained. 。The silver notes from the Yanhuagong How could this beEven Old Madam Xiao panicked and blurted out, "Nonsense! How could there possibly be silver notes from the Yanhuagong Do you think the Yanhuagong is some place anyone can just request from Silver notes issued by the Yanhuagong would never end up in your hands! Are you all mad"She felt more and more that the Ye family were insane, even standing up, "This old woman is leaving. The Ye family are a bunch of lunatics! This old woman won't speak to lunatics!" 。" Mrs. Xiao was about to leave, but she was pulled back by Mrs. Ye from the side: "Wait! Mother-in-law, if you wanted to leave before, no one would stop you, but now it's not possible." 。This is a serious situation, and it's critical that you don't leave until we have a clearer understanding of what happened. 。"Night view heard this and said: "If your mother-in-law must leave, then please take your daughter with you too. 。I will immediately write a letter of separation, breaking ties with the Xiao family. From now on, our families will have nothing to do with each other. 。As for the matter of her stealing the silver notes from Yanhuagong, please have the Xiao family take full responsibility and don't cause trouble for my Ye family. 。“What do you mean by that” Old Mrs. Xiao shook off Old Mrs. Ye’s hand, “Are you all really delusional I’ll remind you again, that’s the Yanhuagong, the residence of the immortal! How could an immortal’s silver note be in the mortal world Even if you, the Ye family, are going to spin a yarn, at least make it believable. Who would believe this nonsense”“Then just see if anyone believes it!” Night Sheng was feeling smug, he even wanted to give Night Wenyan a big bow. 。The niece's performance today is truly amazing, her stance is so clear, she simply hands you a pillow when she's sleepy and tea when she's thirsty! At this rate, will she not need to marry a wife at all, and directly dismiss Xiao Sh beyaz and marry Xue Qiao as his legitimate wifeYe Wan was so excited that he couldn't stop rubbing his hands together, and he didn't mind giving Old Madam Xiao a little lesson on the history between the Ye family and Yanghua Palace. 。Then he began to recount how Lian Shi and Yun Chen had visited Ye Wen several times to support him, and how Ye Wen had treated the new emperor's sore throat at the emperor's request. He also mentioned that it was the Emperor himself who had chosen Ye Wen for this task. 。He was very proud of this matter——"My mother-in-law has lived for most of her life, but has she ever heard the Emperor speak in person Has she ever been called by name by the Emperor Certainly not. Even if you don't have it, even among the imperial family, there are only a very few." 。But our fourth daughter is different. She was summoned by the Imperial Lord himself. The day the previous emperor passed away, all the court officials heard the Imperial Lord shout——“Please, Night Family’s Fourth Sister, heal the Seventh Prince!”At that moment, he even imitated the tone of voice Shi Lifen used that day. For a moment, it was quite immersive, bringing everyone back to that night on the second day of December. 。Then, she asked Madam Xiao, “Mother-in-law, what do you think now It's strange that we have silver notes from the Yan Huagong appearing in our house, isn't it” Madam Xiao was about to say something else, but she was pulled by Xiao Shubi. 。She lowered her head to look at her daughter, and saw Xiao Shu Bai shaking his head at her. 。Old Mrs. Xiao swayed, and with a thump, she sat back down in her chair. 。 Seeing my daughter like this, there's no way around this. 。He... that's the Emperor! Can he really compare to the Ye Family... She looked at Ye Wen again, and suddenly remembered the New Year's Eve banquet... 。The fourth young lady of the Ye family performed a fire dance, dancing so fiercely that the phoenix soared into flames. 。Perhaps being different is what makes her daughter so afraid 。“Shu Bai, if you really took the silver note, just return it. After all, we're still family. Jing Sheng only married a concubine, how can you also be the second aunt of the fourth young lady” 。Just return the silver, and then, then apologize. I believe Fourth Miss won't hold it against you too much. 。The night view was a little disappointing, but at the same time I let out a sigh of relief. 。
This is settled!u show any loyalty to the Ye family at allYou repeatedly slander me, and time and again, you place false accusations on me. I think you are a pitiful child who lost your father at a young age, so I am...
