Chapter 586: To Take the Knife or Not?

d daughter. "I wasn't doing this for your sake! To keep you alive! But listen carefully to me, this is the last time. I am your mother, but also her mother. Even if I don't want to see you suffer, I c...After several apologies and concessions, there was no reaction from the Mu family. Ye Wushuang felt that it might be impossible to bring up the matter of the second wife, so why not take a different approach and try using Ye Hongzhuang's matter to provoke anger from the Mu family

Then she opened her mouth and told Ye Hongzhuang: "Our family's affairs should actually be divided into two parts. One part is the old lady's business, and the other part is Miss Hongzhuang's business" 。Although the old madam is certainly to blame for what she did to her grandfather, you are even more at fault towards your aunt and younger sister. 。Chang Xueqiao nodded in approval. Her daughter's use of firepower was truly ingenious. 。Only the fact that she used rouge could inflame the anger of the first wife even more, so as to diminish this matter in the eyes of the old lady. 。Then they would distance themselves from Yèhóngzhuāng with the second wife, or directly abandon her, giving Yèhóngzhuāng to the eldest wife as a means of venting their anger. There could be a turnaround in this situation. 。Ye Hongzhuang and Xiao Shuangbai naturally knew what this meant, and couldn't help but be furious. 。Yèhóngzhuāng glared at Yèwúshuāng and said, "What kind of thing are you The child of a concubine is always a lowly creature who can never see the light of day. You have no right to speak here!"

"You…" Yèwúshuāng was left speechless with grievance, her pouted lips made her look a thousand times more pitiful than Xīchūn before. 。Even someone as pitiful as Xi Chun can elicit sympathy, let alone Ye Wu Shuang. 。But those officials had also learned their lesson. They glanced at the two adults still kneeling on the ground, both Miss Ye Si and the Emperor remained unmoved, allowing them to kneel there. Their purpose was likely to warn others, to show them a cautionary tale so that no one else would cause trouble unnecessarily. 。Matters of the Ye family are to be observed, not interfered with. Even Miss Ye Si said so, “Observe the chess game and remain silent.” They were fortunate today to be able to watch a play with the Emperor, a great blessing they shouldn’t squander by looking for trouble. 。

So no one spoke up for Yè Wúshuāng. After crying for a while, Yè Wúshuāng found it pointless and then spoke again: "Miss Hóngzhuāng, why do you speak to me like this I am an illegitimate daughter, but precisely because I am an illegitimate daughter, these years I have never acknowledged my ancestors and returned to the clan, so I have not participated in any of the Night Family's affairs.>>> 。It is precisely because I was not involved that I am able to sit here and speak with you like this. 。I asked with a clear conscience, because I have never harmed my family in the night, but what about you”

She made her meaning quite clear. I haven't harmed my family at night, but you have! So Ye Hongzhuang, you don't have the qualifications to confront me

On the contrary, you still have to think hard about how to keep the chance of sitting at home at night. 。"After I returned home, my family called me the Third Miss, taking your place. You could only be called Hong Zhuang Miss." 。"Ye Wushuang continued, and as she spoke, her gaze swept across the assembled crowd. Her voice rose a few octaves— 'You must all be wondering, why not call Su Wangfei, but only Hongzhuang Miss' 。That's because the Duke of Shu didn't want her either. She had never been a legitimate princess, with no formal marriage, no betrothal letters, no blessings from family and friends, nor an imperial decree for the union. 。She was just a substitute for my fourth younger sister, married off to the Duke of Su's mansion as a thief. 。She stole my younger sister's fiancé and usurped the position of Duchess Shu. How could this daughter still be recognized by our family! My father had said long ago to just pretend she never existed!”

Night Wushuang, with tear-filled words, spoke as if she were a righteous person, as if she cared so much for Night Wenyan.

For a moment, the sight of this older sister protecting her younger sister moved many people deeply. Some even said: "Miss Ye Si was truly too difficult back then. She had her wedding stolen and ended up injured all over, with nowhere to pour out her suffering." 。Now, at least she had a sister willing to stand up for her and fight for justice. This was some consolation for Miss Ye Si. 。"Yes, if that concubine's mistress had returned home sooner, perhaps those things wouldn't have happened." 。As people spoke, their eyes were also cast down toward the sixth lord. 。Quan Qing held the teacup in his hand, his face devoid of any expression. 。People also couldn't tell if he was happy or unhappy, only that after a while they heard Quan Qingyin say: "Miss Ye San is right, this king has indeed been played by Ye Hongzhuang." 。 An uproar erupted! What day was this, exactly Was it Night General's death anniversary, or was the Night family holding a collective reckoning Night Wushuang was delighted to have received the cooperation of the Sixth Prince. She even rose and bowed her head towards Quan Qingyin, but Quan Qingyin simply ignored her. 。But she didn't care if Quan Qingyin ignored her, the previous sentence was enough to bring down Ye Hongzhuang. 。"Red Makeup, Miss Red Makeup, why don't you tell us, why did you get on the wedding palanquin of Fourth Sister back then" Ye Wu Shuang was determined to bring up the matter of La Yuechu Er. This made both Ye Hong Zhuang and Xiao Shu Bai very angry. 。But looking at Dafang's side, he, like Ye Wushuang, focused his gaze on her. 。Ye Feiyu said, “Although today is such an occasion, we originally didn’t want to bring that matter up again.” 。But since someone has already spoken up, let's hear it together. After all, I just told you, the accounts of Yan'er on the second day of the twelfth lunar month haven't been settled yet!

Mu shi then looked at Quan Qingyin, she wanted to tell Quan Qingyin that Ye family's accounts with him hadn't been settled either. 。Perhaps it didn't matter. She wasn't sure when it started, but she felt that the Sixth Prince was completely different from before, like two entirely separate people. 。She hated him with every fiber of her being, regardless of whether it was before or after the second day of the first lunar month. She had never looked upon that sixth prince favorably. 。She was completely unwilling to the marriage, but since her daughter liked it, she couldn't refuse. 。Now she doesn't know what to say. Even with such deep hatred, when facing him, many resentful and harsh words seem unable to leave her mouth. 。Furthermore, she had tried to fight him once before, but he had stubbornly resisted. What could she do about it She couldn't kill him, could sheMu Shi took a deep breath and looked away just as Xiao Sh beyaz said: "This matter was arranged by our family for Hong Zhuang. My father, my mother, and even the Empress Dowager in the palace have agreed to it. Otherwise, who would dare to defy the imperial decree regarding this marriage Hong Zhuang is the most promising child in our family. You are young, Night Wushuang, so I won't hold a grudge against you. But let me remind you, if you keep clinging to this matter, it will do your father no good at all. 。Second Madam, this is a delicate matter to discuss. 。“Chang Xue Qiao spoke up, “I heard Sheng Ge say that that matter was a plot between Second Madam and the Old Madam of Ye Family. They also used Old Madam Xiao to get in touch with Li Family’s connections and tell Empress Dowager about it, which is how this was done.” 。As for Shengge, he didn't actually get involved because he wouldn't risk it all for a daughter he didn't like. 。At first, the Sixth Prince was the Crown Prince, with a bright future ahead of him. 。So you want Ye Hongzhuang to take the place of the Fourth Miss, and gamble on the possibility of becoming a virtuous mother who governs the country 。But for Sheng Ge, even if there was such a possibility, he would give this opportunity to us. 。Only Wu Shuang is the child he truly loves, and regardless of her temperament or appearance, she surpasses Ye Hong Zhuang by far. If he were capable of planning anything, why wouldn't he plan for Wu Shuang instead of meddling in Ye Hong Zhuang's affairs”

These words left Xiao Shu Bai completely speechless. She suddenly realized that she couldn't refute them at all. 。Compared to the Night Crimson makeup, Night Scene Feast indeed prefers Night Without a Pair more. 。If he had a choice back then, wouldn't he have wanted Ye Wushuang to be the future EmpressSeeing Xiao Shubi remained silent, Ye Jingsheng nodded in agreement. He was very pleased with Chang Xueqiao's words, and he understood why these two women kept bringing up the incident from the beginning of December. 。The old woman's theft is a big deal, if things go wrong she might lose her head. On the other hand, what happened on the second day of the first lunar month, as long as he can get rid of both Xiao Shuwai and Ye Hongzhuang, he won't be responsible for anything. 。Then he also said to Ye Wen: "Niece, your second uncle truly has no intention of harming you. Your second uncle was also forced." 。As you know, Uncle Two has never held much status in the house. 。Your second aunt is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Ningguo. She has me, your second uncle, completely under her thumb. I don't dare disobey her or argue with her decisions. 。So if you hold a grudge, make sure it's directed at the right person. Your second uncle is being wrongly accused. 。Furthermore, since we're talking about this today, let me give you a straight answer. 。Whether it's the crimson makeup of the night or the pale script of sorrow, I give them all to you. Do with them as you please, let your anger run wild. 。As long as you can let out that anger of yours, even if you beat both of them to death, your second uncle won't frown. 。"Just please calm down, niece, and let that matter go."

Ye Hongzhuang looked at her father, growing more and more desperate the longer she stared.

She knew her father had abandoned her, but she didn't expect him to let go so completely. 。

Is she willing to risk her life to save herself now Why

So she opened her mouth and looked at Ye Sheng as the night view said, "You do want to marry Yè Wúshuāng, but unfortunately, only the Xiāo family can talk in the palace, so you have to marry me"

Father, don't you remember all those things Would you like your daughter to help you recall them”

Ye Qingmei listened to these words and softly asked Ye Wenyan: “Wen'er, have you thought this through carefully This matter will ultimately need an explanation” 。We've mentioned many times before, we've fought with the Second House and scolded them too. But they always insist you're still alive, preventing them from taking responsibility for their actions. 。This time, they brought this matter up themselves and even put the knife in front of us. What do you think we should do, accept it or not If we don't accept it, then this matter will truly be dropped and can never be mentioned again. 。“I see,” Ye Wen said, nodding. “That’s why we have to take this sword. If someone offers it and we don’t take it, wouldn’t that make us look foolish!” She glanced at the banquet hall, her gaze finally meeting Quan Qingyin’s. 。She didn't linger, passing through with composure. Yet, Qingyin's gaze remained fixed on her for a long time, unwilling to be withdrawn, staring at her without any shyness. 。"Where's Chu Lian" Ye Wenyan suddenly turned his head and looked at where Chu Lian had been sitting. 。That place is empty now, Ye Chulian isn't there, and her maid Suixi isn't there either. 。It's nothing really, it's just a girl thing. If you need to go to the restroom, it's not easy to say so to others. 。The problem is, it's not just that Ye Chu Lian isn't here, but also Ye Lian Mian's spot is empty. 。This gave her a bad feeling...

>r she pleased at night. Nobody dared to stop her; she would leave whenever she wanted, and the people in the mansion simply complied. No one dared to say more than necessary or ask any questions. 。 B...
