y. 。The reason she has lived all this time, and even taken good care of Li Fei, is not to repay the Fourth Prince with a mother. She only wants to kill her in front of the Fourth Prince's face. 。Li F...Quanzhou Ji family, Ye Wen repeatedly thought these four words in his mind, but unfortunately there was no result

Later, maybe I thought too hard, my chest felt a little fluttery and painful. A voice suddenly popped into my head: "Don't think about it anymore, I don't even know what the Quanzhou Ji clan is, I've never heard of it." 。"Perhaps older generations know this!"

She then put her thoughts away and didn't think about it anymore. 。The original owner wouldn't even know, how could she possibly

So, she handed the box of warm jade to Xiangdong, and with both hands, reached out towards Jima: "Grandma, please get up quickly. You're so old, your delicate constitution can't handle such a grand gift. In the future, please take good care of me." 。"Once this was said, it meant they were going to keep this person. " 。Lien was overjoyed, as if she had accomplished something great. At that moment, she smiled. 。"Even Grandma Ji was amused, and said again, 'Thank you, Sister, for accepting this old servant. Please rest assured, Master, I will do my best to serve you, regardless of boiling water or fire, and fear neither death nor danger.'" 。" To be fearless in the face of life and death is to declare one's stance. 。The old lady's heart clenched tightly. It seems that it was indeed the Qians from Quanzhou. 。The Quanzhou Ji clan, a family with a century-long history. 。This family is different from ordinary families. Although they are wealthy and powerful, all members of the Ji clan call themselves slaves. 。

He is only this slave, a slave to one person.

More than four hundred years ago, Shi Liyuan rose to fame as a young man, standing alone and proud. 。The ancestor of the Ji clan once received a life-saving grace from Master Li Yuan, and later generations were even more blessed by his guidance, enabling them to cultivate spiritual roots and become cultivators. 。If the spiritual power doesn't dissipate, the Ji family will surely have a place in the Xiu Ling Realm. 。Unfortunately, the spiritual energy is gone. To ensure the prosperity of the clan, the ancestors of the Ji family proactively submitted to the Emperor and requested that he brand them with a slave mark for the entire clan. From then on, the Ji family became slaves for generations, but only to him alone. 。The members of the Ji family came running to serve Ye Wen as slaves, does Yun Chen have such power The old Madam shook her head slowly, it's impossible. Even the Imperial Inspector wouldn't have the authority to order Ji slaves around. 。Below, only one person can move their pawns, and that person is capable of destroying the world. 。Her heart turned cold. Everyone in the Ye family who had any impression of Ji Nu felt the same way, their hearts turning cold except for a few clueless elders and Liu Shi, who didn't know what was going on. 。But even though she didn't know the reason, she could tell that both the old woman and Xiao shi were afraid of this Mama Ji. 。All the members of the family were silent, but Granny Ji was not. 。After kowtowing to Yè Wényán, she again bowed to Mu Shi: “This old servant greets the Madam.” 。"Then there was Ye Feiyu, “The old slave has seen the young master" 。"Last is Ye Qingmei, "The old slave asks the elder sister well" 。“Master Mu hastens to return the greeting: “Grandmother Ji, you are too kind. Thank you for taking care of my son Yan'er and troubling yourself.” 。“ We have also troubled Granny.” 。“ No trouble at all, it is this old servant's duty. 。After some pleasantries, Lian Shi spoke again to Ye Wen: “Since the grandmother has recognized her master, then this servant will not stay any longer.” 。From now on, if the Fourth Sister has anything she needs help with, just have Jima come to the palace and tell me, and I will certainly take care of it. 。"Night Wen smiled and replied, "Thank you, father-in-law. Goodbye, father-in-law." 。Lianshi left, just nodding at the night people as he passed. Chui'er followed him to the door and then quickly returned. 。The general's mansion courtyard, at this moment, the household was at a loss as to what to do. 。When the new slaves arrived and acknowledged their master, everyone else returned to their own quarters. They were each free to do what they needed to do! Yet, Ye Wenyan's group didn't leave. Not only did they not leave, but even Ji MaMa turned around, her face stoic as she looked at everyone 。Those eyes swept over them, scrutinizing the old lady and Mrs. Xiao so thoroughly that they both trembled with fear. 。Since the old matriarch passed away, and everyone is observing a period of mourning by eating only vegetarian food, let's set a limit of one hundred days for this observance. Starting today, the Ye family should continue to eat only vegetarian food for the next one hundred days. 。The old servant would go to the kitchen every day, after every meal, to check. Whenever he found any sign of meat in the house, he would report it to the Old Madam immediately, upholding the family rules. 。At the same time, please ask each department head to temporarily seal their stove, lest it violate protocol and disturb those who have passed on. 。"

Ye Lianmian was furious and blurted out, "Why"

Jimama's eyes flashed: "Why Because this old servant comes from Yanhuagong!"

The old lady twisted Ye Lianmian hard, twisting her so that she didn't dare to speak again" 。Xiao never spoke, but nodded her head. This meant the entire family had compromised with Grandma Ji and agreed to eat vegetarian food until the hundredth day. 。The old matriarch thought to herself, "This should be the end of it, right" She really didn't want to stand in the courtyard any longer. Her face was already flushed with shame. Now that the family had arrived, she absolutely had to go back and make a plan. 。Who would have thought, that this matter was settled with Ma's arrival, yet Ye Wenyan remained silent. Suddenly, a servant rushed in from the entrance of the manor: "My lords, someone has arrived from the palace!"The Ye family members felt exasperated. Wasn't one slave maid enough Were they now sending someone else to support Ye Wenyan Just then, the servant continued: "This person is sent by the Emperor to deliver a gift to the fourth sister..." 。"

The new emperor ascended the throne, the first person he thanked was Ye Wenyan. 。Grand Eunuch Wu Fule happily led a group of palace attendants into the General's Mansion. The new emperor's gifts were brought in box after box. 。Ye Lianmian curiously counted, there were eighteen boxes in total. 。She was particularly curious about what was inside the boxes, her eyes almost popping out of their sockets. 。When Wu Fei saw this, she gave a sarcastic smile and said, "Sister, wipe your drool. Don't stare so intently at the boxes we brought in. These are all for Fourth Sister." 。Besides, what the Emperor grants as a reward is something bestowed by him; no one should covet it. Even thinking about it would be a serious crime. 。“

Ye Lianlian was intimidated by him and didn't dare to look at those boxes again. 。Wu Fu was very satisfied. He walked to Ye Wenyan's side and knelt down to pay her respects: "My servant asks Sister Si, how are you" 。“ The old madam watched, her brows furrowing. These people were kneeling one after another before Ye Wenyan. What on earth did they want It was understandable for a court lady to bow and pay respects, but why would the emperor’s chief eunuch kneel before her too What was Wu Fu trying to doYe Wenyan, of course, knew what Wu Fu was trying to do. The night the previous emperor died, she had snatched Wu Fu's life from under Empress Dowager Li’s grasp. With this kneel, Wu Fu was kneeling before his savior. 。But she didn't intend to keep this matter on her mind all the time, so she raised her hand and gave a light gesture: "Mr. Wu, there's no need for such a grand salute, we're all familiar with each other." 。"Wu Fu was very happy. A familiar greeting from her meant that Ye Si Jie didn't treat him as an outsider; he would now be considered part of her family." 。Then, Gao stood up happily. Although he was now serving the new emperor, he still thought that serving the new emperor did not conflict with standing by his fourth sister's side. 。Besides the new emperor's deep trust in his fourth sister, she still held a position at Yanhu Palace. His actions demonstrated not only her own stance but also that of the new emperor. 。After Wu Fu finished performing the ceremony for Ye Wen, he performed the ceremony for Mu Shi. Then he performed the ceremony for Ye Feiyu and Ye Qingmei, and finally it was the turn of the old lady, Xiao Shi, and Ye Yesheng. 。The old woman thought to herself, "My husband has passed away now, so I should be the most powerful person in this house. But how come everything has changed so drastically in just a few moments Not only has my status not been elevated, but it has actually regressed, even falling behind several generations! What on earth is going on" Thinking this way, her face grew increasingly ugly. Wu Fu saw her expression and found it immensely satisfying. 。"Sister Ye, you saved the Emperor's life. The Emperor is a man of great benevolence and righteousness. Since he just ascended the throne today, he immediately ordered me to bring this gift to express his gratitude for your great kindness." 。"Wu Fei arrived here and, looking at the assembled members of the Ye family, loudly declared, 'His Majesty has decreed, the Ye family shall obey!' The members of the Ye family knelt down in a flurry. Wu Fei continued, "Your Majesty, Fourth Sister is someone who has served the country with merit, and she has also shown great kindness to me..." 。I have heard that after General Ye Lao passed away, my fourth sister lived a hard life in the mansion, and there were always wicked people looking for ways to make her unhappy. 。I'm putting this plainly: from now on, anyone who bullies my sister is bullying me. Anyone who doesn't show her respect isn't showing respect to me. 。Although I have not yet taken the throne, I am still addressed as Emperor by those around me. If anyone dares to challenge my authority, I would be happy to invite them into the palace for a chat. 。"Night family, did you understand"

The old matriarch almost choked on her anger. This wasn't a decree, this was plainly lecturing the third grandson!

Well, in front of the emperor, they were originally three grandchildren. Is it really appropriate to elevate Ye Wenyan to be like the emperor She sighed in her heart, but said on her mouth: "My concubine understands." 。" And Xiao and the others also followed suit, claiming to have understood. " 。Now, Wu was satisfied. "If you understand, get up! There's much to do in the palace today. We can't stay long; we have to return and attend the Emperor. Oh, by the way, I also came with a young lady entrusted to me by the Empress Dowager to be delivered to Ye Mansion..." 。“ He drew someone from behind. 。She was a maidservant of high rank, probably around twenty years old. She appeared very composed and courteous. 。After being called forward, Fuyou immediately bowed to the old lady: "Slave Fuyou, following the Imperial Dowager's decree, has come to General's Mansion to take care of Third Sister's pregnancy." 。"

Old Madam wasn't seriously injured. Xiao shi almost fainted when she heard it. " 。 After Grandma Cui left, now there's another Fuyou. Empress Dowager really won't let them go! After asking the old lady about her well-being, Fuyou also greeted Xiao Shi and Ye Xing before turning to greet Mu Shi, then each of the sisters and aunts present, finally she respectfully bowed to Grandma Ji. 。Having gone through all the proper etiquette, there's nothing anyone can fault. Everyone keeps smiling politely, unlike the previous Nanny Cui who always wore a stern face and looked down on others. 。Yè Wēn yàn xiǎng, Lǐ tàihòu shì huàn lùxiàn le, bù zài zǒu yǐqián zhāngyáng qiángshì de lǎo lù, ér shì gǎi zǒu ruǎnròu qīnmín lùxiàn. 。Just as she was thinking this, Fu You actually knelt down before her and said, "Earlier, Cui Mama acted presumptuously, disrespecting the fourth sister and even showing great disrespect to the late emperor." 。I, as her servant, bow my head and apologize to the Empress Dowager on her behalf! Your Majesty, please do not spare Madam Cui. Let the magistrate handle this case. Whether it be death or punishment, it is all up to the magistrate's discretion. 。"

As soon as these words left her mouth, both the old madam and Mrs. Xiao exchanged glances, both seeing the unease in each other's eyes……

"t 。"Having said all this, she took a deep breath, “Ye Wenyan, I've said everything I had to say. When will you deliver on your promise” Ye Wenyan’s indifferent gaze swept over her, “I know why he fel...
