Ye Changkong and Ye Feng are far more than the only regretful Ye family members.
Every member of the Ye family kneeling here feels extremely regretful at this moment.
If they had known that Ye Chen was so capable, they would not have offended him even if they died, let alone secretly bought Xiaoyi and plotted to surrender to Wan Pojun.
Now they are just like those traitors after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. In addition to regret, each of them is more ashamed and helpless.
At this moment, behind the Ye family, there were two people kneeling.
These two people are Su Chengfeng and Su Shoudao, father and son of the Su family.
Originally, when they had knelt all day and night in Wanlong Hall and set off down the mountain, it was already time for them to go down the mountain, but Su Chengfeng insisted on pulling Su Shoudao to continue kneeling until Ye Chen arrived.
At this time, the two of them heard with their own ears that Ye Chen actually asked Helena to send Helena to the throne of the Nordic Queen, and they were extremely horrified.
Ye Chen also glanced at the two of them and asked: "Su Chengfeng, Su Shoudao, why are you two still here?"
Su Chengfeng said hurriedly: "Back to Master Ye... you didn't come, how could we dare to leave casually..."
Ye Chen smiled and said casually: "Okay, you two don't have to perform here anymore. Go back and get ready and go your separate ways."
As he spoke, Ye Chen thought of Olivia and said: "By the way, Su Chengfeng, I have found a group of long-term workers for your future manor in Madagascar. Among them are Princess Olivia and her family of three from the Nordic royal family.
At that time, we treated them as former black slaves and left them to do things like growing cotton and cutting sugar cane."
Su Chengfeng couldn't help but tremble and thought to himself: "This Olivia is not only the princess of the Nordic royal family, but also the heir to the previous throne. Her father is also the prince of the Nordic royal family. Let their whole family go to my manor in the future.
Becoming a long-term worker? Ye Chen is a bit too careless about the dignity of the Nordic royal family..."
Although he thought so in his heart, Su Chengfeng still agreed repeatedly and said gratefully: "Thank you, Master Ye, I have to think about everything for you..."
Ye Chen said calmly: "When you go to Madagascar, you must manage it well for me. I may still have people to send to you in the future."
Su Chengfeng panicked and couldn't help but ask himself: "When I go to Madagascar this time, am I going to be a local owner, or am I going to be the warden for Ye Chen..."
Even though he was panicking, he said without hesitation: "Don't worry, Mr. Ye, I will definitely run Madagascar's industry well. Before I leave, I will communicate with Zhiyu and finalize the details."
Ye Chen said casually: "Hurry up, I still have a lot of people in Northern Europe waiting to be arranged."
Su Chengfeng quickly said respectfully: "Okay, Master Ye! I will hurry up!"
Ye Chen nodded slightly and said: "Okay, from now on, the rest of Ye Lingshan is the Ye family's business, you can go."
After that, he called over some Wanlong Palace soldiers and said, "You guys, escort the two of them, go to Buckingham Palace to find Su Zhiyu, and ask them to do everything they promised to do before."
Several Wanlong Palace soldiers immediately raised their hands and said, "Okay, Mr. Ye, I will definitely do as you are told!"
Seeing that Su Chengfeng and Su Shoudao were taken away, Ye Chen looked at the Ye family kneeling in front of him, then turned to Ye Zhongquan and said: "I'll go to my parents' funeral for a while, and wait for the people from the bottom of the mountain to kowtow all the way up.
, let them kneel here first."
Ye Zhongquan said without hesitation: "No problem, Chen'er, go ahead and teach me here."
Ye Chen nodded, walked through several rows of tombstones alone, walked to his parents' mausoleum, and slowly knelt down.
Staring at the photos of his parents, Ye Chen was filled with emotion. He couldn't help but whisper softly: "Dad, my son is now the head of the Ye family. If grandpa had passed on the head of the family to you earlier, I would love for you and my mother."
He will not leave his hometown and go to Jinling, let alone incur the disaster of death..."
"Mom and Dad, please rest assured that my son will definitely find the murderer who killed you two back then and avenge you two!"
Speaking of this, Ye Chen looked at his father's handsome face in the portrait and swallowed: "Dad... I know you always wanted to carry forward the Ye family and make the Ye family stand on top of the world. Now, your son
I have decided to carry the banner of your past, and one day, I will definitely make the Ye family become the top family in the world!"
After saying that, Ye Chen looked at his mother's portrait again and said with shame: "Mom... they all advised me to go and see my grandparents. I believe you also want me to go and see them, but I and
It is true that my grandparents rarely interact with each other, and now that you are no longer here, I really don’t know how to face them, so this matter may not be possible for the time being, and I ask for your forgiveness..."
Afterwards, Ye Chen leaned down and kowtowed three times in front of his parents' tombstones.
Immediately afterwards, he said: "Dad, Mom, my son will stay with you two more today. I may have to return to Jinling tomorrow. At the moment, my son is not ready to disclose his identity, so it is not appropriate to stay in Yanjing for a long time. But in the future I will also
I will often take time to come and see you..."
After saying that, Ye Chen added: "When my son officially reveals his identity to the world in the future, he will definitely bring your two daughters-in-law here with him, and let you two see his other half.
More assured.”
Having said this, Ye Chen felt melancholy in his heart, and his tears fell silently.
For the next few hours, Ye Chen didn't speak anymore. He just knelt silently in front of his parents' souls without saying a word.
The Ye family could only see his back from below. No one knew that this man who had just conquered the Ten Thousand Dragons Palace and single-handedly completely changed the structure of the Nordic royal family was already in tears in front of his parents' graves.
A few hours later, most of the Ye family members knelt down and worshiped under the archway on the mountain.
Seeing all the direct relatives of the Ye family kneeling here, everyone was a little stunned.
Before they could figure out why the direct members of the Ye family were also kneeling on the ground, they were scolded by the soldiers of Wanlong Palace and knelt down again.
As more and more people came up, the foot of the Yelingshan archway was almost full of people kneeling.
At this time, the sky was getting late, and the golden sunset spread over the entire Yeling Mountain, making these white marble tombstones on Yeling Mountain particularly eye-catching.
The setting sun on the horizon reflected Ye Chen's back, and everyone watched intently, waiting for his next order.
However, this figure was kneeling there, motionless for several hours, like a sculpture.
Just when the fiery red clouds reflected on the horizon, Ye Chen slowly stood up, turned around, and saw the Ye family kneeling down and slowly walking down from the mausoleum.
The core members of the Ye family, as well as the side members, all looked at him. Most of them were very nervous, except for Ye Zhongquan and Ye Changxiu, whose expressions were full of expectation.
Ye Chen came to stand in front of everyone, looked around, and said coldly: "From today on, the Ye family's ancestor worship ceremony will be changed from once every twelve years to once a year! The form can be simple, but everyone must be more clear-minded.
Come to Yeling Mountain in person to worship your ancestors on the day of the festival, no one is allowed to be absent!"
"In addition, all members of the Ye family's side branches must come to Yanjing every three months for a work report meeting to report to the head of the family in detail the business situation of the past three months. No one is allowed to be absent! Listen.
do you understand?!"
In Ye Chen's view, the collateral vassal kings of the Ye family only come to pay homage once every twelve years. This frequency is really too low. It is precisely because of this that they have no loyalty to the Ye family at all.
The family has no actual control over them.
However, from now on, all this must change drastically.
Letting them come to worship their ancestors every year and report on their work every three months is to strengthen the Ye family's control over them.
If the Ye family is compared to a feudal dynasty, what Ye Chen has to do now is to strengthen centralization of power, weaken local decentralization, and firmly hold these vassal kings scattered all over the country in his hands!
