Chapter 191 Avenging My Mother, Beating Up Chen Guojiu
[The system says the Liu family's treason is related to the Fourth Prince, and the Fourth Prince's close monitoring of his eldest cousin is a potential threat.]
Mu Yunmeng became even more anxious.
"Yaoyao, your aunt feels that the way the Fourth Prince looks at your cousin is strange."
"Something's wrong?"
"Yes, she looks abnormal." Ye Yaoyao was still young, so Mu Yunmeng didn't dare to be too direct.
Ye Yaoyao became interested and her eyes lit up as she looked at Liu Hanxing.
[Oh! I see, he's gay! Next time I see him, I'll find out what secrets he's hiding.]
Liu Hanxing felt so uncomfortable being stared at by her family that she wished she could disappear into a hole.
"Then... I don't need to go out and lay low, right?"
He tried his best to avoid the Fourth Prince. He didn't have homosexual tendencies, and he figured the Fourth Prince wouldn't force him.
"Need not!"
A member of the Ye family arrived. He was a man in his seventies, said to be the most respected elder in the Ye clan, and all the elders of the Ye clan would call him Uncle.
Liu Yunshu took Ye Yaoyao and Ye Jingyang to meet someone.
“Uncle, she is A-Mian’s wife, Liu Shi. This is the most respected elder of our Ye family. You can call him the old clan chief.”
Elder Ye had been unconscious on the ground all night and harbored resentment towards Liu Yunshu.
"Old patriarch!"
Liu Yunshu nodded slightly to the old man, displaying the demeanor of a noble lady from a prominent family. Knowing that the visitor was not friendly, she naturally did not give him a pleasant look.
As expected, the old patriarch showed his displeasure. He believed that although Liu Yunshu was born into a noble family, she was still a junior to Ye Mian.
Such an attitude showed that he didn't take him seriously, and his initial intention to reconcile with him was also abandoned.
Seeing that her two children behind her did not greet their elders made her even more displeased.
[Host, this old man has a lot of complaints about you.]
Who cares? They're nobody's business anyway.
"Where is A-Mian?"
"Uncle, you've finally arrived!" Old Madam Ye rushed over, tears streaming down her face.
Seeing Madam Ye's appearance, the old clan chief frowned even more deeply and began to reprimand her:
"Madam Wang, you are the mother of a third-rank official. How can you behave like this, crying and wailing?"
The old clan chief was a man who valued rules the most, and the old woman quickly wiped away her tears.
"It was that vicious woman, Liu, who instigated Ye Yaoyao to attack Amian. Amian had finally recovered from his injuries, but he was beaten half to death again."
"What? This is absolutely outrageous!"
Elder Ye glared fiercely at Ye Yaoyao, then reprimanded Liu Yunshu.
“Liu, now that you have married into the Ye family, you should abide by the Ye family’s rules, and you should also discipline your children properly.”
Liu Yunshu looked at him sharply, "The Ye family's rules? Does that mean they don't even investigate and just let the mother-in-law twist the truth?"
Ye Yaoyao glared at Elder Ye and said with a proud expression:
“My mother is a noblewoman, my eldest brother is a top scholar, my second brother will have a bright future in the military examination, my third sister has a good reputation in the capital, and all her children are successful. Who wouldn’t envy them?”
"Then...then you also beat your father!"
"You saw it with your own eyes?"
Elder Ye choked on his words; he knew that Ye Yaoyao's emergence from the coffin was definitely not a good thing.
Ye Mian is the most promising member of the Ye family, which is why they are willing to help him. Now, this vixen must be removed from the Ye family genealogy.
Liu Yunshu sneered: "The old lady hasn't seen it with her own eyes, so don't make baseless accusations."
“That’s right, you need to catch the thief red-handed!” Ever since Ye Jingyang learned that he was not Ye Mian’s son, he has become increasingly rude to them.
The old patriarch spoke up, "Alright, stop arguing. Wang, take me to see Ye Mian."
"Uncle, come with me."
Upon arriving at Qingzhu Courtyard, they found Ye Mian lying on the bed, his face covered in bruises from being beaten.
"Wow! That was too ruthless."
"Not only on her face, but her whole body is covered in injuries." Old Madam Ye wiped away tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
"Uncle Zeng, I am covered in wounds and cannot get up to greet you."
"Lie down properly." Elder Ye frowned. "A-Mian, who inflicted this injury on you?"
"It's Ye Yaoyao. I've doted on her for so many years, and she turned out to be a bastard."
"A little girl could beat you up like this? You didn't see wrong!"
"It was her. She was with someone who was highly skilled in martial arts. Except for the eye injury, which was inflicted by her, nothing else was her doing."
"They really don't respect the Ye family at all. Just because they come from a wealthy and powerful family, does that mean they can treat us commoners like this? Uncle, we must stand up for Amian."
“She’s not my biological daughter, but I’ve raised her for over ten years. How could she be so cruel? I was worried it would affect Ye Li’an’s career, so I thought I’d handle it behind closed doors.”
"Now my Ye family can't control her. Go report to the authorities first thing tomorrow morning."
Elder Ye was furious and pounded the ground with his cane.
"Report to the authorities, this..." Old Madam Ye looked at Ye Mian; they hadn't thought of this before.
"Why should we be afraid of the Liu family? Even if she's an illegitimate child, she's still a daughter we've raised for over ten years. It's against all reason for a daughter to beat her father. Let's see if anyone in the world dares to say that. We must report this to the authorities."
Elder Ye roared firmly.
“Uncle is right, we must report this to the authorities!” Clan Chief Ye replied.
"Okay, report it to the authorities!"
Ye Mian thought that the Liu family's glory wouldn't last long, and that reporting them to the authorities was a viable option.
"Uncle Zeng, you must be tired from your journey. Mother, please let the old lady get some rest."
They didn't know that a person was lying on the roof drinking.
"A beating really does work, Uncle Ji, how about we go out for some exercise?"
"what are you up to?"
"To avenge my mother."
"Let's go!" Someone else is going to be in trouble, so we have to go and see.
Ye Yaoyao led Ji Xiao to peek into an alley.
"Girl, who are you trying to catch?"
"The intelligence was correct; this is the only way through."
Soon after, the clatter of hooves approached, and a carriage came along.
Two masked men in black appeared and attacked the carriage, but were stopped by the guards who were secretly protecting it. Seeing this, the coachman quickly sped up.
Ye Yaoyao grabbed a handful of medicine, intending to scatter it after the carriage arrived. The guards had been dealt with, and the men in black had already caught up.
The coachman was knocked unconscious, and someone pulled the reins, bringing the carriage to a stop.
Chen Guojiu, holding a dagger, lunged at the people outside, but was no match for them and was kicked off the carriage.
"Who are you? How dare you assassinate the Emperor's brother-in-law?"
The man in black didn't answer, and kicked the man away.
"Uncle Ji, could you do me a favor and put the person in the sack?" Ye Yaoyao had brought a sack and a stick with her when she went out.
"Wait until he's knocked unconscious before you go over and attack him, wouldn't that be better?"
"That won't do. He won't feel the pain that way."
“That makes sense.” Ji Xiao took the sack, put it over Chen Chengsi who was trying to escape, and tied a knot on it.
"A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. Let me out."
Suddenly everything went black. Chen Guojiu was terrified. Who dared to treat him like this?
Ye Yaoyao excitedly ran out with a stick in hand and struck Chen Chengsi, who was writhing incessantly.
"what……"
[You lecherous devil, how many people have you ruined? Even if the emperor won't take you in, your grandma will!]
The creature was trapped in a sack, and its howls were muffled and not sharp. At that moment, the people were cooking dinner, so no one heard it.
