Chapter 528, Jiang Shi, You Wait for Me!

hip hitting the horse. 。Zhui'er almost thought she was hallucinating. She had longed so much for a carriage to come down this road, but from hope to despair, nothing came. 。It was pitch black, and yet...The scene was stuck in this tense stalemate, and Mrs. Ye, the elder matriarch, felt like she couldn't hold on any longer.

"Why don't you just ask the Old Madam who he is Since she invited him, surely she knows his family. You should notify them and have them all come back! We don't have that many spare rooms in the Night Residence for a large group like this."

"Ye Wen, what do you want" The old lady's question lacked confidence, but she couldn't help asking.

Yè Wēn Yán then said, “I don't want to cause any trouble! It's late, and Mr. Jǐng Shèng is a man from outside our family. How can he stay at our house My grandfather is gone, and my father is gone too. There are just women in the household left. Leaving an outsider here would be inappropriate, wouldn't it”

"He's your second uncle! He's not an outsider! He's the head of the Ye family!"

"The head of the Ye family is my father, he's dead!"

"He is the new head of the family!"

"An outsider can't be the head of our family!"

"Ye Wen, you can't just talk nonsense!"

"What kind of reason are you talking about" Ye Wenyan snorted coldly, "When I talk to you about reason, you bully me. Now that I'm bullying you, you want to talk to me about reason again You only know how to take advantage!"

Xi Chun couldn't help but ask, "Why did the second master become an outsider Isn't his surname Ye"

Night Wen nodded, “Well asked! As for why he became an outsider, you’ll have to ask our esteemed matriarch. Please, Matriarch, tell us all, what is Mr. Jing Sheng's true surname”

The old lady trembled a little. She could tell that Ye Wenyan was determined to pursue this matter tonight. Last time the topic was deflected by the two princes, she thought Ye Wenyan would forget about it! Now it seems he never forgot at all!

"Of course, his surname is Ye." The old madam forced down her unease and stubbornly insisted on this fact.

"If the Princess's affair ultimately falls on me Poisoning the princess, exterminating nine clans."

"No," the old matriarch took a deep breath, "You are the future Empress, no one dares to question your crimes."

"But my mother and the Emperor have fallen out, so the marriage is off."

"Impossible!" The old lady had an unprecedented confidence in Ye Wenyan, "The Lord Emperor and you have a deep bond, he wouldn't give up so easily. Besides, they didn't take back the betrothal gifts, so the marriage is still on."

Ye Wenyan raised an eyebrow. "Since you know that family matters are settled, why did you send my mother to a temple outside the city"

"Well, that's because she offended the Emperor. She was disrespectful to him."

“No, no.” Ye Wen shook his head. “As long as family matters are concerned, she could even point at Shi Liyuan’s nose and scold him, and Shi Liyuan would have to bear it because she is the mother-in-law. Where does the old lady have the authority to punish the Emperor’s mother-in-law”

"You...I..." She was stumped, not knowing how to respond to his words one by one.

"As for the night view, he chimed in, “If Mu Qianqiu were to be his mother-in-law, then the old madam would be the Empress Dowager's grandmother. As a senior relative of the mother-in-law, she naturally has the authority to punish her.”

Ye Wenyan glanced at him, "Outsiders talk so much nonsense"

"Who are you calling an outsider My surname is Ye! We share the same surname!"

“Have to be surnamed Ye” Ye Wenyan chuckled and smiled, “Fine, then let you be surnamed Ye. You listen well, today the old matriarch of our house is showing off her power, driving my mother out of the General’s Mansion. As a daughter, I naturally can't stand idly by, I must get this place back. Otherwise, people outside will think that the eldest branch of the Ye family has completely lost its status and prestige, not even qualified to live in the house.”

Night view listening to her words felt a little off, so she asked again: "How do you plan to find a place"

Ye Wen ignored him, only looking at the old lady: "Grandmother, logically speaking, since you drove away my mother, I should also drive away your mother. But your mother is no longer alive, I can't chase her, so I can only chase your son! Originally, this matter wasn't his concern, after all, he's not a member of the Ye family! It's not easy to settle accounts with outsiders."

But he insisted on saying that he was also surnamed Ye, a person from the first-rank general's mansion. Since he was family, he had to bear the burden of his own family. He couldn't just share in the wealth and glory, but also have to share in the hardship. So today he still had to leave, as your old man's son, to atone for you.

"Ye Wen, you dare!" The old lady almost jumped up, "He's your second uncle, why would you drive your second uncle away"

"Mu Qianqiu is also my mother, why do you kick out my mother"

The old lady recalled what Mu had said before leaving, and added, "Your mother said that going to the temple was her own volition, and this matter does not need you to investigate."

“My mother said it was my mother’s magnanimity. What I did was filial piety. These are two different things.” Ye Wenyan turned his head and looked at Ji MaMa and the Ji siblings who were walking towards him, waving at them, “Come here, everyone in the second master's family, one by one, tie them up and throw them into the carriage. Take them straight to a small temple outside the city to burn incense and pray, repent for their sins. Also, borrow people from Yan Hua Palace and take care of that temple for me. None of them are allowed to leave, whoever dares to escape will be killed without mercy!”

Ye Wen's words caused the entire second family to collapse. Ye Wu Shuang cried out in despair, while Chang Xue Qiao clutched her belly and screamed incessantly: "You can't do this to me! You can't do this to me! I am Madam Chang, I am the legitimate wife of the master, and I have a child from the Ye family in my womb. You can't treat me like this!"

"Grandmother," the matriarch stepped forward and slapped, "What are you babbling about You're just a concubine, dare to be so bold in front of the legitimate Miss Do you think the General's Mansion is some place where rules don't apply Or do you think being inside Lin'an City means anything Once you choose to come here, you must abide by our rules. Don't do things you shouldn't, and don't say things you shouldn't."

"Grandma said this, and then looked at Ye Wushuang again, “If you cry again, I’ll sew your mouth shut.”

Ye Wushuang stopped crying instantly because she remembered someone having their mouth sewn shut at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.

Xi Chun seeing that both of them were not getting their way, naturally dared not speak. Only Ye Xing Sheng was still unwilling, even though he had been caught by Ji Du. He kept shouting: “Ye Wen Yan you little bastard, I am your second uncle! You dare to kick me out of the house Do you want to monopolize the General's Mansion Let me tell you, no way! This General’s Mansion is mine, no one can take it from my hands!”

Jié Dù didn't love listening to his nonsense. With a single slash of his blade, he knocked the man unconscious.

The old lady gasped, not daring to utter a word.

The young boy urged the three of them, "Hurry up and take him away. The sooner you go, the sooner you come back. Make sure to find a small temple, the harder the conditions the better."

Grandma counted her blessings, patting the person's head and about to leave. Just then, she heard Xichun say, "There's also a Second Madam!"

Then, Ji MuMu looked at Ye WenYan, but saw him shake his head slightly. She knew that keeping the Second Madam still had other uses. She didn't say anything more, slapped Xi Chun hard, and dragged her away forcefully.

Ye Wenyan gestured for someone to come in and change the tea. After a new pot of tea was served, he took a sip before saying to his grandmother, "What were you discussing with the door closed just now My dear grandmother, could it be that you're plotting how to drive our entire household out, so that your son born out of wedlock with another man can seize our family fortune"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only did the elderly madam's face turn pale, but even Ye Feiyu and the others widened their eyes in astonishment, staring at the elderly madam with surprise. The quick-witted Zhuai’er blurted out: "So the second master is not the general’s biological son"

"How is that not true Who said it wasn't" The old madam was flustered, she stood up trembling, "Ye Wenyan you don't spit blood! Your grandfather is gone and you want to pin this blame on me You want me dead, just say it directly, you don't need to treat me like this! I'm over fifty, my lifespan is coming to an end. I've struggled for decades to raise my children, only to be insulted by my granddaughter like this, how dare you"

I am your grandfather's legally wedded wife. Our Chiang family has done great favors to the Ye family. You don't even know how to repay kindness, and you are actually thinking of repaying kindness with hatred. What kind of children did the main house raise Is Mu Qianqiu determined to ruin all the descendants of the Ye family Where did the Ye family wrong her What does the Mu family want"

As he talked, he started to feel righteous and let out a series of roars, growing louder with each one.

Ye Feiyu sidled up to Ye Wenyan, whispering, "Wen'er, what's going on"

Ye Wen watched the old madam acting erratically, a chilling frost creeping across his face.

She opened her mouth, responding to Yefeiyu's words, but her voice was so loud that everyone in the room could hear it—

Some people thought that since the grandfather and father were dead, some things could be covered up as if they never happened. They even wanted their illegitimate son to inherit the Night family's property and bring an end to the Night family line. But they were thinking too ambitiously and underestimated the difficulty of covering it up.

My grandsire was a hero of his time, yet he died at your hands. My father, virtuous half his life, was poisoned by your son in the end. Chiang, don't think that because my grandfather showed you mercy, I will do the same. Just like today's affair, don't think that because my mother told me not to seek revenge for her, I can remain indifferent. How others choose to speak and act is their concern. I shall simply do what pleases me.

I know my grandfather didn't expose you back then. He wanted to protect the family's reputation. After all, as a general, being cuckolded by his wife and having to raise someone else's child would be a terrible scandal. It wouldn't be a good story to tell.

Now, I have to protect the reputation of the Ye family, so this matter I'll only tell within the household. But don't think that I only know how to talk and dare not do anything to you. My hand, Ye Wenyan's, has never been soft. Sending your son away today is just the beginning, Jiang shi, you wait for me, from today onwards, your life with your son will be truly exciting!

>aughter-in-law, especially since she's bringing a grown daughter with her. 。"Yè Liánmiàn nodded, "I heard that Wúshuang younger sister is especially beautiful. Second Uncle is truly lucky." 。““Um 。"T...
