After Su Xinghe heard this, he never expected that Ye Rou, who was usually arrogant and domineering towards them, was actually a good person. He shook his head calmly: "That's it, since you have come out, you don't have to think about Ye Mansion's affairs."
"It's just a pain for Ye Shen. We have the same father and mother since childhood. Ye Zhengfan, his wife, and even the entire Ye family have not been very kind to him. Now that we two have run away, I wonder what will happen to Ye Shen!"
Su Mohan leaned against a big tree and sighed: "Now the whole world has been infiltrated by people from Haotian Pavilion. I don't know what is right and what is wrong. Is this the Great Shang Dynasty really going to be completely overthrown by Haotian Pavilion?
Come to think of it, it’s really…”
The two of them fell silent one after another, which seemed particularly sad in this cold autumn season.
At this time, Ye Zhengfan was furious in Ye Mansion.
He was walking back and forth in the main hall. When the servants saw him, they were very frightened and looked at him from a distance without daring to get close.
"you!"
Ye Zhengfan suddenly said to the old servant in front of the hall: "Go and call everyone in the Ye family to the main hall."
After hearing this, the old servant hurriedly bowed and ran behind him. After a while, everyone in the Ye family, except for the disciples of the Ye family, all arrived in front of the main hall.
Looking at Ye Zhengfan in the main hall, Ye Rou murmured to her mother: "Mom! You just finished talking about what dad did, and now you have called us together. Could it be that you have something to announce?"
Mrs. Ye glanced at her side, then looked behind her with her peripheral vision and smiled: "I don't understand the world of Qi cultivators, but your father lost the Su brothers. It seems that Patriarch Haotian will not bypass him.
Yes, you might get angry later, that’s okay. We are women and your father will definitely not do anything to us!"
After hearing this, Ye Rou looked at his father and felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart. After all, he was also a Qi cultivator. Although he was not at a high level, the education he had received since he was a child or what his master taught him were all the things on the Qi Cultivation Continent.
, this situation now makes her somewhat uncomfortable.
Ye Zhengfan came to the door of the main hall expressionlessly, looked around, and then walked up to them with his hands behind his back: "Come in! You all know that this main hall is also the ancestral hall of our Ye family, and the ancestors of our Ye family are enshrined in it.
I have something to say to you today: all the servants you have brought with you can withdraw."
As soon as Ye Zhengfan finished speaking, all the Ye family members dismissed their servants and walked into the main hall. The door of the main hall was immediately closed. The person who closed the door was Ye Gao, the eldest son of Ye.
"What's the situation? Why are we locked up?" Ye Shen stayed with Zhou Tian for a long time, but it was a little awkward to go home. When encountering such a thing, he felt even more strange and said unconsciously.
Ye Zhengfan happened to hear it, and with a casual palm, he knocked Ye Shen to the ground from the air.
"Yeshen, even though you are my son, you can't make any trouble in the ancestral temple!"
Ye Shen was a little out of breath from the slap. He was unable to get up with his hands on the ground, and he was sweating profusely.
After Ye Rou and Ye Gao saw this, fear rose in their hearts.
Ye Zhengfan glanced at Ye Shen, snorted, sat on the main seat, and took a breath while looking at the Ye family members.
"You all should know that our Ye family is the earliest clan in Xihuan, and our power in Xihuan is obvious to all the world. However, the importance of Xihuan in the Shang Kingdom has been declining. Even in Dongchu, everyone said that we
Xihuan is a barbarian land, an uninhabited and ominous place. Because of this, my Ye family agreed to Bai Qinghe of the academy and joined Haotian Pavilion; and also because of the reputation of the academy, when I first joined Haotian Pavilion,
In the past few days, the academy has secured a lot of benefits for our Ye family in the Shang country, and the whole world has even become aware of our Ye family’s existence..."
Ye Zhengfan's words were not surprising to Ye Rou and Mrs. Ye, but Ye Gao was in a daze, thinking in his mind, what is dad going to do? Do you want to admit in public that he is a lackey of Haotian Pavilion? Didn't he agree that all this would be kept secret?
conduct.
Looking at Ye Gao's nervous look, Ye Shen smiled coldly and whispered to himself: "I have known for a long time that the Ye family is no longer what it was back then. Now it seems that they are really colluding with Haotian Pavilion."
After looking at the reactions of the following people, Ye Zhengfan continued: "But the good times did not last long. Bai Qinghe was detained by the master of the academy for some unknown reason, which resulted in the transfer of the position of the leader of Haotian Pavilion to Wang Bingwu, who is now Haotian.
Ancestor, this person is treacherous and vicious, and he is even more ruthless. In a short time, he has made Haotian Pavilion a mess and has attacked Qi cultivators. After hearing this, I, Ye Zhengfan, wanted to withdraw first; but Patriarch Haotian did not
Don't give up, say that my Ye family is the sign of Xihuan. Anyone passing by the boundary monument of Xihuan, the first thing they see is our Ye family. If you don't want the Ye family to be wiped out, if you don't want Qi cultivators to enter Xihuan,
If Huan dies unexpectedly, he will not be able to escape."
"I have no choice but to obey, but this is not for myself, but for the sake of the Qi cultivators, and even more for the prosperity of our Ye family. Only by my constant forbearance can the Ye family reach its current size."
"I admit that I have done some things that are despised by Qi cultivators, but this is all for you!"
As he spoke, Ye Zhengfan stood up. The so-called impassioned speech made Ye Shen sound very harsh. He slowly sat on the ground, looking at Ye Zhengfan's face, which was familiar yet unfamiliar, and his heart felt extremely cold.
.
After hearing this, Ye Rou felt a little ashamed. She knew that these remarks were nothing more than excuses for her father. This kind of grandiose work for Haotian Pavilion made her feel a little bit ashamed.
Ye Zhengfan was seen placing the long knife behind him in front of him, and thrust it hard into the floor in front of him.
The tip of the long knife penetrated the floor three inches deep, and the entire blade kept shaking and making a harsh sound. When Mrs. Ye saw it, she trembled in fear, because the long knife was less than half a foot away from her.
"This is the long knife that Bai Qinghe gave me when he wanted me to join Haotian Pavilion. Although this knife is not very famous, it can cut iron like mud and is more than enough to deal with ordinary weapons. It is precisely because of this long knife that
It also allowed me to make a name for myself in Xihuan."
"What I want to say today is that since our Ye family has chosen Haotian Pavilion, it doesn't matter who the leader of Haotian Pavilion is. The important thing is that Haotian Pavilion can protect our Ye family from collapse, and this
Among them, we must have the support of Patriarch Haotian.”
Ye Shen smiled, but couldn't bear to listen. He walked slowly in front of everyone, pulled out the long knife and threw it aside.
"Dad! You have already said that this sword was given by Bai Qinghe, that is, it was given by the academy, not by ancestor Haotian, so why do you still work for Haotian Pavilion! Do you want to say next,
Let the entire Ye family go out to find the whereabouts of the Su brothers?"
Ye Shen looked behind him as he spoke, and then yelled at Ye Zhengfan sternly: "I'm telling you! I can't do it, not only I can't do it, but there are not many people in the Ye family who can do it, because we still have conscience!
"
"Dad! Just stop, Haotian Pavilion does all kinds of evil, and the whole world wants to punish it, Dad! Are you really going to be a sinner in this history?"
