Chapter 14 Letter from the Imperial Capital

Ye Chen calmed down, although he still didn't know the reason for what happened last night, and what kind of relationship the man in black had with the Ye family.

But at this moment, he knew that if he didn't go back, the Ye family would find him sleeping outside all night.

Although staying out at night is not a big deal, now I have a family...

Ye Chen dodged and dodged all the way, and finally returned to the yard where his new house was without anyone noticing.

However, the moment he stepped into the yard, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Where did you go last night?"

Ye Chen slowly turned around and found Su Qinxue at the entrance of the courtyard holding a wooden plate in her hand. Her eyes were looking at him coldly, like an ice flower with spikes. The moment people were fascinated by the fragrance of the flower, they were also fascinated by that flower.

The cold was biting and I felt heart palpitations.

"I was...in the guest room last night." Ye Chen concealed everything that happened last night and said, "Did you not sleep well last night?"

The young man who had been observing the details discovered that the girl who had taken off her makeup was already bare-faced. Although there was almost no difference between before and after makeup, she could still see a slight flaw under her beautiful eyes.

"Yes." Su Qinxue responded and said, "Your maid named Qingyin doesn't sleep quietly. I'm not used to sleeping in the same bed as others, so I woke up a little early."

As she said that, she raised the wooden tray in her hand and said, "This is the tea tray needed to serve tea. I brought it from the kitchen. In half an hour, you can follow me to Grandpa Ye Zhan's place to serve tea."

"Tea?" A slightly suspicious look appeared on Ye Chen's face.

It wasn't that he didn't know the etiquette and customs of serving tea on the second day of a wedding, but he didn't expect Su Qinxue to act so proactively, going to the kitchen in advance to get a tea tray, and then waiting for him in the yard.

This made the boy who felt chilled yesterday that Su Qinxue didn't respect him a little, suddenly felt that the wife he was marrying simply didn't like him, as he said yesterday.

Arranged marriage is really a rotten culture!

Ye Chen complained in his heart, then smiled and took the tea tray from Su Qinxue's hand. He wanted to call her "ma'am", but he still couldn't say it.

He paused and asked, "How about I call you Xue'er from now on?"

"It's alright, just a title, no need to think too much." Su Qinxue replied coldly and walked past Ye Chen.

Ye Chen stood there, twitching the corner of his mouth, "Well, that makes sense, but I thought about so many titles in one second, can you tell?"

He narrowed his eyes and smiled, turned around and followed Su Qinxue, entering the room together.

In the room, Qing Yin was sleeping on the made bed. The girl's sleeping posture was as Su Qinxue said, not peaceful.

But Qingyin is indeed just a fourteen-year-old girl, and she never needs to be restrained by the rules and regulations of those wealthy ladies.

Ye Chen walked to the bedside and looked at Qing Yin who was sleeping soundly. A smile appeared on his face. He glanced at Su Qinxue and whispered: "Thank you for your hard work last night."

Su Qinxue did not respond. She just sat on the stool beside the table and looked out the window at the broken rockery in the yard.

After a moment, she asked: "Did anyone come to the yard last night?"

"What? Who?" Ye Chen heard the sound and asked without any hesitation: "Why did you say that?"

"The rockery in the yard was in good condition when I came here, but it was broken this morning. It was the same sound it made last night, so I walked out and saw you and Miss Qingyin hugging each other..." Su Qinxue

As if reminiscing, the words blurted out.

But when he said this, he stopped.

"How long have you known her?" Su Qinxue asked.

She refers to Qing Yin.

"More than ten years?" Ye Chen thought for a moment and replied, "We've known each other since we were children."

"Childhood sweethearts." Su Qinxue paused and said, "That's great."

Ye Chen frowned, her childhood sweethearts were good friends, but she didn't understand the meaning of Su Qinxue's words.

He wanted to ask, but he didn't have time.

Su Qinxue slowly stood up, picked up the tea tray on the table, and said, "The time has come, it's time to serve tea."

With that said, the girl was about to go out.

However, at this moment, the servants' shouts suddenly came from outside the yard.

"Clan leader! Clan leader!"

Hearing that he was being called, Ye Chen quickly walked out of the room.

A servant stepped through the courtyard gate and saw Ye Chen coming out. His hurried steps quickened. He held a letter in his hand and said loudly: "Clan leader! There is a letter from Ye Zong in the imperial capital! Mr. Ye asked me to call you there.

Living room!”

…

…

Ye Chen changed into a white robe, took the letter sent by the servant, and walked into the Ye family living room.

At this time, everyone in the Ye family had grim expressions, including Ye Zhan, who was sitting on the side of the seat, also had a solemn expression. It seemed that there was very bad news coming from the imperial capital.

Seeing Ye Chen, Ye Zhan stood up, and then the elders of the Ye family also stood up. They all said in unison: "Clan leader!"

Ye Chen nodded, walked to the main seat in the living room, glanced at everyone, clasped his fists towards Ye Zhan and said, "Grandpa, Chen'er has read the news from the Imperial Capital."

Ye Zhan hummed and said in a dull tone: "Does the clan leader have any countermeasures?"

"There is nothing we can do. Since there is a letter from the Imperial Capital saying that the clan meeting will be held in advance, then we should go in advance." Ye Chen put the letter on the table and said with a smile: "Otherwise, everyone has made so many preparations, how could it be possible?

It’s not about wasting it.”

"That's true, but you, patriarch, just got married yesterday. If there is a clan meeting in half a month, wouldn't you, patriarch..."

"Clan leader, you always have to make sacrifices at critical moments." Ye Chen raised his hand and interrupted the suggestion of an elder from the Ye family.

He didn't want to mention his wedding. After all, it didn't matter whether the wedding was concluded or not.

"Is there anything you are worried about now?"

The living room fell into silence. Ye Chen re-evaluated the reactions of the people around him and said again: "You can say whatever you want. I advocate public decision-making and just speak freely."

After the words fell, a relatively well-behaved man walked out from the side of the living room.

Ye Jiang.

Ye Xuan's fourth brother.

Ye Hong, after the collapse of Ye He's power, he is now the new chief elder of the Ye family.

He clasped his fists towards Ye Chen and said bluntly: "The Ye family now only has one young descendant, the clan leader, you. Your realm has already reached the late stage of physical training, which is considered high even among the younger descendants of the Ye clan in the imperial capital.

He is a cultivation genius..."

"But I heard that there is a young descendant named Ye Kuang in the direct line of the clan, who is already in the state of inducing qi, and some people in the imperial capital don't want us to return to the Ye clan, for fear that they will secretly arrange for you, the clan leader, to fight Ye Kuang.

…”

"Then Ye Kuang..." Ye Jiang didn't finish his words.
