Chapter 251 Who are you trying to kill yourself for?
Ye Wenyan was also embarrassed when she heard this, "What should we do? We can't let one woman marry two husbands! You two have to choose one!" She held her chin with one hand and thought for a while, "How about this, you two play a drinking game, and whoever wins gets to marry."
The servant refused, "Whoever loses gets to marry."
"Okay, then whoever loses gets to marry."
It sounded like it was settled, Ye Wenyan had already pulled Mu back to the chair, and casually pulled Ye Feiyu up. Ye Chulian looked at the scene, and silently pulled Liu to sit on the side of the main room.
Everyone watched helplessly as the two servants shouted, "Five Kuishou, six six six!"
The Yu family was going crazy! "Shut up! Shut up!" Lord Yu reacted, "This is simply nonsense, what on earth are you doing?"
Ye Wenyan was amused when he heard this, "Master Yu, have you never drunk wine or been to a restaurant? Isn't this obvious? Let's play a drinking game! Whoever wins, no, whoever loses will marry your concubine's daughter. Oh, by the way, if this marriage is successful, then the concubine's daughter will be the principal wife of our servant, which is a good marriage for her."
"Bah! You little bitch, you fart!" The concubine became anxious and rushed towards Ye Wenyan.
Mu and the others were terrified and were about to step forward to stop them. Ye Wenyan did not move at all, but she saw Nanny Ji standing behind her step forward, raised her foot and kicked the concubine away.
The concubine knocked over a chair and fell to the ground, spitting out blood and almost dying.
Yu Xiaodie cried out in surprise and threw herself on her. Lord Yu screamed "Ahhh" a few times and then started shouting, "Murder! Murder! The Ye family is going to kill someone!" Nanny Ji walked a few steps towards him and slapped him, "Shut your mouth! You are just a sixth-rank official, how dare you yell in front of my young lady?"
"You, you dare to hit me?" Lord Yu was almost doubting his life. He was a grown man, but he was slapped by a servant. Who would believe it if he told others? "I am an official appointed by the court! How dare you, a servant, hit me? Is there still law in the Ye family?"
Bang! Another slap hit his face, "As long as I am here, I am the law!"
"You, what did you say?" Lord Yu was stunned, and all the members of the Yu family were stunned.
But the Ye family was not confused, because they all understood the identity of this Ji Ma. Ji Nu, she is following the law of the Emperor. Whether it is the court or the imperial power, how powerful can it be more powerful than the one in Yanhua Palace? Not to mention beating you, even if I kill you, you can only suffer in silence. If you dare to say no to the Emperor, Ji Nu will overthrow your whole family, and the Emperor will never make a decision for you.
Ye Wenyan looked at the Lord Yu who was covering his face, and was also angry. He finally spoke again: "Alright, don't care what our nanny says, just take care of your Yu family and think about what your Yu family said and did. Don't think that my father is dead and our family is easy to bully. Who are you trying to show off to?"
Then he looked at the concubine and the illegitimate daughter, "Go back to your own home and cry if you want. No one here wants to see you wiping tears like a spoiled child. No one wants to use a pillar to hit their heads against. Bring your skills of competing for favor in the backyard to the main hall. The Ye family won't fall for it!"
She walked around in the hall, "Also, Lord Yu, if you are not satisfied with the marriage, just cancel it. Don't prevent my brother from entering the house while forcing your concubine's daughter to me. Don't think that no one can see what you are thinking. You are attracted by our family's high position and generous salary! You are attracted by our family's still powerful military! In fact, you know clearly in your heart that this is a good marriage, and you wish my brother would come to your house every day. But you are unwilling to give this good marriage to the legitimate daughter born by the main wife, and only want to force all the good things on the concubine's daughter who crawled out of my belly. Lord Yu has such a great official power that he favors his concubine and ignores his wife!" She spoke in a sonorous and powerful voice, and every word was like a knife slapping back and forth on the faces of the Yu family, and she just couldn't stop.
"Your own family is not enough, and you even come to Shangguan's house to make decisions for your concubines and show off your power. I have never heard of any family in Lin'an that can do such a thing as favoring a concubine and ignoring his wife. I think your career is almost over. If you don't even understand this principle, how can you survive in the capital? Do you know that if anyone reports you in the court, you will be in trouble?"
Lord Yu's face turned pale. "This is a family matter. It won't be brought to the court."
"Family affairs?" Ye Wenyan sneered, "Family affairs or state affairs, that depends on what the person who reported you says. The court can't afford to lose a first-rank official, nor can it afford to lose a second-rank or third-rank official, so if this happened in a place like a marquis's mansion or a prime minister's mansion, the court might really not care. But don't forget, you are just a sixth-rank official, you can't even go to the court, it's too easy to report you. If you go down, there are thousands of people waiting to take your place, do you think they hope anything will happen to you?" Ye Wenyan stared at Lord Yu with half-closed eyes, and in the middle of the night with her beautiful white face, Lord Yu retreated again and again. "I can see it clearly, it turns out that your family's main mistress and the eldest daughter are not living a happy life, otherwise they wouldn't watch you praise a concubine so highly and teach a concubine to be so lowly!"
"you……"
"What about me? Just listen to me, why are you talking so much nonsense? And you--" As she spoke, she suddenly swept her eyes and turned directly to Yu Xiaodie, "Don't always look at my fifth sister. I can see through your thoughts at a glance. What's the matter? At this time, the relationship has been torn apart, and you are still trying to save face? You want to blame my fifth sister, right? You want to say that she is also a concubine, and the concubine Liu beside her is also a concubine. I am saying harsh things here, and I am scolding even my own family, right?"
She walked towards Yu Xiaodie in a sinister manner. To Yu Xiaodie, these steps seemed to float, which was terrifying. "Just saying this can cause discord between us sisters and make my family's backyard restless. Little girl of the Yu family, how old are you? Are you so cunning that you come out to scheme against others? That's right, you are both concubines, and her mother is also a concubine like your mother. But you have to open your eyes and see clearly! This is the First-rank General's Mansion, not your Yu family! Even if she is a concubine, she is still a concubine of the First-rank General's Mansion! Even if she is a concubine, she is still a concubine of my First-rank General's Mansion! The daughter of a mere sixth-rank official, what can you compare with my concubine sister? Who gave you the courage to slander my elder brother and throw such dirty water on him?"
Once Ye Wenyan got angry, no one could suppress her anger. She told the Yu family, "Listen to me clearly! I, Ye Wenyan, was called a witch outside, but I never bowed my head to anyone at home. I don't care what you Yu family do behind closed doors, but if anyone bullies my brother, I will fight him to the death!"
Her scolding made the Yu family members look like they had seen a ghost. They were all trembling and no one dared to say a word. No matter how badly the concubine was kicked or how fiercely the concubine's eyes were slashed, Lord Yu did not dare to ask any more questions. He wanted to leave immediately and did not want to mention anything about asking Ye Feiyu to be responsible, otherwise Ye Wenyan would have to eat it.
I've heard that Fourth Miss Ye is powerful, but I didn't expect her to be so powerful. With such a powerful sister-in-law at home, if his precious concubine's daughter marries in, she will be bullied to death! No, no, such a family must be endured by Yu Xuanji.
He was about to back out, thinking about how to get out of the Ye family. At this time, a servant from the gatehouse hurried into the hall and bowed: "My lord, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family has arrived."
Everyone was confused? Jiang family? Which Jiang family? Why would the eldest daughter come to visit in the middle of the night? Who was she looking for?
Lord Yu's heart skipped a beat. Others didn't react to the Jiang family, but he was very quick to react! Because he was too sensitive to the surname Jiang!
He was just a sixth-rank official in the Ministry of Justice, and couldn't even go to court. Every day, he had to face only his immediate superior Jiang Feng. So when he heard the word Jiang Family, his first reaction was the Ministry of Justice's Shangshu Mansion.
Besides, in the inner city of Lin'an, who else could be called Miss Jiang except the daughter of the Minister of Justice?
He became even more frightened, with cold sweat pouring out of his body. He rubbed his eyes and looked outside the hall. Sure enough, he saw a girl who looked somewhat familiar. She was walking towards him quickly with her skirt lifted, and a group of maids and old women were following her.
Yu Xiaodie felt jealous when she saw this scene. Although she was well-respected in her own house, she was still far behind the legitimate daughters of wealthy and noble families.
The person who came was Jiang Wanting, and Zhuier also quietly returned to Ye Wenyan's side. People watched the eldest daughter of the Jiang family walk into Xu Ming Hall, first bow to the old lady, then bow to Mu, and finally bow to Ye Jingsheng and Xiao. The whole set of actions was very polite and no one could find any fault.
After the ceremony, Jiang Wanting began to speak. People heard Jiang Wanting say, "It is inconvenient for a man to visit a house in the middle of the night, so my father did not come. He only sent me to complain to Old Madam Ye. It is the Ministry of Justice that did not control its subordinates well and caused trouble to the Ye family. I am really sorry. Please rest assured, Madam and all the elders of the Ye family, the Ministry of Justice will investigate this man. My father will report to the court tomorrow, dismiss him from his official position, and drive his family out of the inner city of Lin'an. Is the old lady satisfied with this treatment?"
The old lady didn't know how to respond to this. She was the one who advocated this marriage, so she didn't want this result. But Jiang Wanting kept saying that she was thinking about the Ye family, and what the Yu family did was indeed embarrassing for the Ye family. If she continued to speak against her conscience, not only would it not look good in front of Jiang Wanting, an outsider, Ye Wenyan would not let her off easily...
