Ye Qingcheng who returned to Pingbei Hou Mansion did not live in Du Manqiu's Chengyuan, but lived alone in his study. The already slightly weird Hou Mansion became more and more agitated. After all, the eldest princess divorced her husband.

Everyone saw Pingbeihou's perseverance in trying to save him. This time Pingbeihou did not move into Du Manqiu's courtyard when he came back, which more or less made the people in the Hou family worry a little more.

Seeing the two people coming in, Ye Qingcheng put down what he was doing, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is something wrong?"

Ye Mingxuan nodded. After the two came in, they sat down casually on the round stools and then said, "There is something very important that I need to discuss with my father. I think I need to call the eldest brother and the second brother."

Ye Qingcheng frowned slightly, but still nodded, and replaced the boy who came into the study and said: "Go and call the uncle and the second uncle."

"Yes." The boy bowed his head and turned around.

At this time, Du Manqiu, who was standing under the window behind the study, looked stunned. He didn't expect Ye Mingxuan to say such a thing. He was about to leave but stayed. She didn't know if there was really something important. After all, her two sons were involved.

, gritted his teeth, retracted his body into the leafy flowers to cover himself, and listened quietly.

Ye Jin and Ye Fan were all at home. Naturally, they rushed over when they heard Ye Qingcheng's call. They met with Mingxuan Zijin and then asked: "Father, has something happened?"

Ye Qingcheng came over and sat in front of the round table. He looked at his other two sons and said, "Sit down. Mingxuan said something happened. Come and discuss it together."

Ye Jin and Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief. They thought something big had happened. Although Ye Mingxuan's expression was a little solemn, it didn't look serious. Regarding Zi Jin being here, Ye Jin and Ye Fan directly chose to remain silent.

, after all, Zi Jin has been directly involved in too many things in the Ye family during these days, and these two people also know her abilities. Although it is really detrimental to a man's face to let a woman be so majestic, Ye Mingxuan doesn't care about them.

Don't talk too much, lest this narrow-minded woman will hold a grudge against them and wonder how she will punish them later.

Everyone was sitting together in front of the mahogany carved round table. Marquis Pingbei looked at Ye Mingxuan and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it now."

Ye Mingxuan nodded, his face condensed, and he said in a deep voice: "Grandma's health is just dragging on day by day. Father, now we are fighting against Le Wang at a critical juncture. If grandma... we all have to go home to observe filial piety. This matter

Have you ever thought about it?"

Ye Jin and Ye Fan were silent, and Ye Qingcheng looked gloomy. Zi Jin knew that everyone must have thought about this problem, but they couldn't think of a solution for a while. And this was not the biggest crisis. The biggest crisis was between her and Ye Mingxuan.

I didn’t tell everyone that that was Lan Niang’s true identity.

If we talk about this matter from the beginning, it is really the old lady's foot binding, which is smelly and long. However, it has to be said now. Zi Jin and Ye Mingxuan were worried about Wu Zhen in the past, but now they are worried about Wu Zhen.

However, he had to let the Ye family know his feelings on a small scale and make all preparations in advance. Even if he really wanted to keep his filial piety, Zi Jin secretly made up his mind to attack Le Wang, who had no way to launch an attack. But... in this case...

It is likely to be a lose-lose situation. Even if it is a lose-lose situation, it is still better than the Ye family being passively beaten.

It seems that you can't have your cake and eat it too. Zi Jin has long understood this truth, but he still feels a little uncomfortable when things happen.

"What do you think?" Pingbeihou asked, looking at his son and daughter-in-law in front of him. This is really a tricky matter.

"It is necessary to observe filial piety. If there is an accident, it will be unless the emperor seizes love. But now that there is no war at the border, things such as seizing love and not observing filial piety will basically not happen. What's more, the outside world still thinks that my father is seriously injured and has not recovered, which is even more difficult to predict.

Yes." Ye Jin said first, his eyes falling on Ping Beihou.

"The worst case scenario is that we'll fight to the death. Anyway, we can't be held in the palm of the King of Music." Ye Fan had a sinister look on his face. He was always a brave and ruthless person.

Pingbei Hou looked at Ye Mingxuan and his wife, "What about you?"

Ye Mingxuan and Zi Jin looked at each other and laughed bitterly. Ye Mingxuan took a deep breath and then said: "Originally, there was something we didn't plan to say. After all, it's too relevant. The less people know about it, the safer it is. But now it's

I have to say it. If your previous guesses about how Le Wang would deal with the Ye family were just childish, then after this incident is revealed, as long as Le Wang holds tight, it will be difficult for us to fight against him."

Everyone looked at Ye Mingxuan suspiciously. Ye Fan was the first to speak, "Are you kidding? Even if King Le is a powerful vassal king, it is not easy to control the Ye family as he pleases. The third brother

, you don’t want to let other people’s ambitions destroy your own prestige, this is not necessary.”

Ye Jin nodded and said in agreement: "Yes, third brother, although King Le is powerful, our Ye family is not easy to bully, otherwise they would not use despicable and shameless means to assassinate my father."

Precisely because he couldn't attack head-on, he attacked in a roundabout way. Ye Jin's words also told Ye Mingxuan to fight head-on; King Le may not be able to take advantage.

Zi Jin said at this time: "Yes, what you said is correct. If it were a head-on confrontation, King Le might not be able to beat the Ye family to death with one fist. Even if he wanted to destroy the Ye family, he would have to pay a heavy price.

The price. But what if people don’t confront you head-on? Why has Le Wang been groveling in the fiefdom for so many years? It’s not to recharge his batteries and try to succeed in a counterattack."

"Recalling what Ye Mingxuan said just now, and now Zi Jin said this again, Ye Qingcheng's eyes became more and more solemn, and he looked at the couple and said: "Speak directly if you have something to say, no need to beat around the bush, no matter what it is, our Ye family must resist it.

"

Zi Jin laughed. She admired Ye Qingcheng, a decisive person who did not do things sloppily. Zi Jin simply said directly: "Ming Xuan's words are not lies. Big brother and second brother, you have been brothers for many years. Is it possible that you still don't know him?"

With his temper, when has he ever fooled his own family? Let me tell you directly, King Le has been planning for many years, and Yi Ronghua's entry into the palace is just a small clarion call to start the war."

Naturally, everyone knows about A Ruo. Listening to what Zi Jin said, Ye Qingcheng has experienced a lot after all, and he also knows more or less about the emperor's affairs back then. His expression became increasingly ugly. He looked at Mingxuan and his wife and asked

Said: "You mean that King Le wants Yironghua to seduce the king? This is unlikely. Even though the emperor will never forget his old relationship, after all, this Yironghua is not the same person back then. At most, he is just a little bit similar."

The reason why Ye Qingcheng said this is because after A Ruo entered the palace, rumors about A Ruo's resemblance to Du Qingyi would naturally spread. This matter was naturally caused by someone in the harem who wanted to muddy the waters. Everyone knows about this matter.

Everyone had heard about it, and now Ye Qingcheng pointed it out directly, so no one was surprised.

"Looking like nature is nothing, but what if Du Qingyi is not dead?" Zi Jin gently dropped a bomb, which not only shocked everyone in Ye Qingcheng, but also Du Manqiu outside the wall almost lost his temper and exclaimed.

"How come?"

"impossible!"

Ye Jin and Ye Fan frowned, this... isn't this a fantasy? How could someone who had been dead for so many years appear out of thin air again?

"Why is it impossible?" Zi Jin looked at the two of them and said, "Do you know why Yironghua must meet Jinghaihou's concubine Lan Niang?"

The room suddenly fell silent, Ye Qingcheng's face became a little stiff, and he asked with difficulty: "Is Lan Niang Du Qingyi?"

Zi Jin nodded in confirmation and smiled bitterly.

"How could this be? Who did you listen to? Is this news accurate?" Ye Qingcheng was the first to recover from the shock. He looked at Zi Jin and asked in a deep voice. This matter is really of great importance.

Seeing Ye Qingcheng's livid expression, Ye Jin and Ye Fan had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter. Ye Fan couldn't help but ask: "Father, what if Du Qingyi is not dead?"

Zi Jin touched his forehead and sighed, this... idiot!

Ye Qingcheng rarely explained patiently: "You are still young, so naturally you don't know what happened many years ago. You only need to know that the emperor was almost deposed as the crown prince by the late emperor in order to bring Du Qingyi into the East Palace. That is enough to tell.

This is Du Qingyi's status in the emperor's heart. If Du Qingyi hadn't died that year, the emperor would have taken her back after he ascended the throne. Now that he suddenly knows that Du Qingyi is not dead, what do you think the emperor will do after knowing it? I didn't expect that Du Qingyi would become

If the emperor wanted to seize Marquis Jinghai's concubine, it would be tantamount to pushing Marquis Jinghai into King Le's camp. You must know that Marquis Jinghai controls all the military power in the southwest. If you stand on King Le's side, Le

Wang rebels, even if I fight against him, I may not be sure of victory. Marquis Jinghai is brave and resourceful, and the southwest coast is guarded by him, and the Japanese pirates do not dare to offend easily. This shows that

This person is awesome.

King Le really had a good plan. He first sent a person who looked like Du Qingyi to the palace to arouse the emperor's longing for his old lover, and then sent the person to the emperor. As long as the emperor couldn't help but seize the person for a moment, the world would be in trouble.

If there is going to be chaos, I am willing to be loyal to a foolish king."

Ye Qingcheng's expression was very ugly. The news about Zi Jin and Ming Xuan has escalated the Ye family's situation to a higher level of danger. After all, he is the only one who can compete with Marquis Jinghai in Da Qi, Ye Qingcheng~!

If the King of Music wants to take over the world, the first thing he must eradicate is Ye Qingcheng. First, the assassination attempt failed. Now if Emperor Zhengxian has a drastic change in his mind because of Lan Niang, Aruo will be able to do some obscure things for the King of Music in the harem, relying on his status as his favorite concubine.

There is no precedent for falsely conveying imperial edicts and murdering loyal ministers.

"If grandma really can't survive the Mid-Autumn Festival, then we must completely prevent Lan Niang from entering the palace before then." Ye Mingxuan said solemnly, as long as the emperor cannot see Lan Niang, without Lan Niang's trump card,

The King of Music will not really get the wind when he wants the wind or the rain when he wants the rain.

"Kill her?" Ye Fan blurted out and asked.

Zi Jin gave him a big eye roll, "Kill Lan Niang? Can you enter Jinghaihou's mansion quietly and kill people? Even if you succeed, Wu Zhen will definitely not let it go."

Ye Fan scratched the top of his head. He just said this subconsciously. He also knew that it was a bit ridiculous. Wasn't it because he couldn't think of any other way?

"Who leaked Lan Niang's existence? This person is really vicious." Ye Qingcheng said angrily, wishing he could strangle that person on the spot.

Ye Mingxuan sneered, "We all know this person, Master Jingjing."

Everyone was surprised again, they didn't expect it was Master Jingjing again.

Across a wall, Du Manqiu looked cold and stiff, Master Jingjing? It's her again!

"This old thief should have been killed right away." Ye Jin was also angry, and his expression was rarely violent.

"If we kill her, we really won't be able to find the big shot in the harem who teamed up with King Le." Zi Jin said slowly, and then told her about her confrontation with Ye Mingxuan and the Dong family. Finally, Zi Jin said: "

We really have no way to go now. If we want to continue moving forward, we can only meet gods and kill gods, and meet Buddhas and kill Buddhas. Anyone who dares to block our way must be mentally prepared to be eliminated."

Zi Jin's words were filled with murderous intent, and even Ye Qingcheng, a veteran on the battlefield, trembled in his heart.

"Then what should we do next?" Ye Fan's heart was twitching. He knew that this woman, Yao Zijin, should not be messed with. Look at this frightening murderous intent. She is also a woman after all... It was really shocking.

Stunned.

"First of all, we must ask the imperial doctor to treat your grandmother properly, and try to delay it for a day. Second, we must kill King Le's right-hand man as soon as possible, so that he will not dare to act rashly." Ye Qingcheng narrowed his eyes.

, the murderous aura is no longer concealed.

Ye Mingxuan nodded, "Although this matter is beyond our control now, we still have to try our best to reduce the losses. What's more, Zi Jin has already found helpers, and Qi Yushi is a big help to King Le. First, let's take care of the Qi family

Crush him and cut off his arm." Only now did Ye Mingxuan feel that Zi Jin was truly foresight, as the killing moves he had prepared little by little before finally showed their power at this moment.

Not to mention Ye Jin, Ye Fan, and even Ye Qingcheng were stunned. They didn't expect Zi Jin to reach into the Qi family. Qi Yushi was not an easy person to offend.

Zi Jin personally told the story about the Qi family, and everyone was dumbfounded!

"First break the powerful arm of Qi Yushi, and then we try to reach an agreement with Marquis Jinghai. We must not let Marquis Jinghai be won over by King Le. My eldest brother is related to Wu Zhen, the son of Marquis Jinghai and Lan Niang.

Better, Mingxuan has a good relationship with him, so let’s start with Wu Zhen and see if we can save anything. As for Marquis Jinghai... I’m afraid we still need our father to come forward. Even Marquis Jinghai can’t stand by us.

On the other hand, at least don’t fight with King Le in an embarrassment. As long as Marquis Jinghai doesn’t join forces with King Le, even if you give King Le 10 courages, he won’t attack easily. As long as the three-year filial piety period has passed, there is nothing to fear.”

Zi Jin said very decisively that Jinghaihou and Pingbeihou were both generals, and Pingbeihou still had some friendship with Jinghaihou's brother Anluhou. No matter what, everyone should do their best.
