Ye Qingxue slowly straightened up, her blue figure standing proudly as she looked at the chaos in the courtyard.

Ye Cunjin's smug expression and provocative look were just like a devil's, making one wish they could crush him into dust.

She heard the sound of General Lan grinding his teeth, a sound of deep-seated hatred; she heard the sound of General Lan's fists clenching tightly, a sound of fury that wished to destroy everything.

But he was enduring it all, enduring it all for his daughter.

Who could have imagined that Ye Cunjin would be so ruthless and insane?

A dignified marquis, a dignified vice minister of the Ministry of War, not only did he humiliate a woman, but he also wrote down the process!

This is like having the lifeline of every girl's parents so precisely that they can't even vent their raging anger.

I hate it so much! I'm so angry! But I feel so powerless!

After initial shock, extreme anger, and profound helplessness, the general's wife suddenly burst into tears and almost fainted. The Princess Consort of Yu quickly supported her.

The sky was heavy, the wind was light, but it was very cold.

Lan Yi stood in the crowd, but felt no warmth. Her parents loved her, but she suddenly felt that she was all alone in the world, walking slowly by herself. The wind and snow swept in, and she could only walk slowly!

"Haha, hahaha! Go ahead and tell him, go ahead and report to the Emperor that I, Ye Cunjin, have defiled Miss Lan! That I will be disgraced! Go ahead and do it!" Ye Cunjin was still laughing wildly as he shouted.

Lan Yi suddenly rushed forward and slapped him hard across the face, shouting in a deep voice, "I've had enough!!"

She was like a string stretched to its limit, her whole body tense and trembling, but her voice seemed to pierce through the wind and snow in people's hearts and reach everyone present!

She faced Ye Cunjin, but said to the Princess Consort of Yu: "Princess Consort of Yu, please go to the palace now and tell the Emperor about this matter. It was not Ye Cunsi who defiled me in the military camp five months ago, but Ye Cunjin, the young Marquis of Zhongyong and Vice Minister of the Ministry of War!"

"He lured Ye Cunsi away, attempting to defile me. When Ye Cunsi discovered this, he pulled him away and then comforted me! Ye Cunjin took the opportunity to call my father and other soldiers over, and they threw mud at Ye Cunsi!"

"I was too cowardly and too afraid back then, so I didn't stand up and tell the truth. I was wrong!"

Facing Ye Cunjin, she recounted the past word by word, her hands slowly clenching into fists, her body growing increasingly tense.

An overwhelming chill enveloped her, and she could barely speak. Her lips trembled, but she continued to speak.

“I am the daughter of a great general. If I remain silent, I will be protecting bad people, and more innocent, pure, and beautiful women will be bullied and have their lives ruined by him!”

She glanced at Ye Qingxue. These were the words Ye Qingxue had just spoken to her, which had been an eye-opener, allowing her to stand here and face the hurt of the past and the people who had hurt her!

"Father, Mother, Princess Consort of Yu, please spread the word about Ye Cunjin's past deeds, so that everyone knows his true colors and everyone 'knows' the real him!"

"I, Lan Yi, want this beast to be utterly disgraced! I was just a victim in the past, not a villain, and I'm not afraid of the world knowing!"

"From now on, I will never marry, live a life of seclusion and devotion to Buddhism, and will never be threatened by anyone again!"

She finally finished speaking, her whole body trembling and numb, her teeth clenched tightly, but tears still streamed down her face.

Ye Qingxue immediately stepped forward and took her hand.

Her words touched the hearts of the general and his wife, and the two elders shed tears. The lady hugged Lan Yi again, holding her with all her might.

Even the Princess Consort of Yu couldn't help but tear up. She herself had almost lost her daughter and knew all too well the feeling of heartache and pain.

Ye Cunjin's smile froze on his face.

His bruised and swollen face made him look particularly comical.

So, Lan Yi and he went to war?

Is he really doomed?

Princess Yu glanced at him and said coldly, "I will enter the palace now, and soon the imperial edict stripping him of his title and dismissing him from office will be sent to the Marquis's residence!"

General Lan bowed to her, and Princess Yu turned and left angrily, while General Lan walked towards Ye Cunjin again.

Each step felt like a mountain collapsing down, the peculiar sound pounding against his heart, causing it to clench, his body to tense, and his fear to reach its peak.

However, General Lan's fists and feet did not stop because of his fear; they rained down on him like rolling rocks.

When Ye Cunjin was carried away, he was covered in blood and unconscious.

After calming down, the old lady was not too heartbroken about the thwarted marriage between Ye Cunjin and the Prince's Mansion.

She always felt that the marriage had fallen through entirely because of Ye Qingxue, and that there was still hope for the marriage if Ye Qingxue was eliminated.

She had already devised a plan to get rid of Ye Qingxue and had already arranged for her subordinates to carry it out.

She thought that once Ye Qingxue was eliminated, she would find a way to build a good relationship with the Prince Yu's mansion and finalize the marriage between Ye Cunjin and Princess Rongqing.

At that time, both Ye Cunjin's official career and the future of the Marquis's mansion were set for a bright future.

Thinking of this, the old lady slowed down her movements as she fiddled with her prayer beads, a smile playing on her lips that made her lips appear even more withered.

"Something terrible has happened, Madam!" Granny Wang stumbled in, almost collapsing in front of her.

The old lady slowly opened her eyes, her gaze sharp, clearly displeased with Wang Mama's panic: "What happened? Why are you in such a hurry? Is the sky falling?"
