Ye Junfei frowned, clenched his fist, looked at Zongzheng with a very serious gaze, and slowly said, "Uncle, rest assured, I will not let you down."
After he finished speaking, he inquired with concern about the casualties of the Ye clan, saying that overall, the situation was quite serious.
Ye Junfei was relatively satisfied with the result, and after comforting the Ye clan members, he left when it got dark.
The moon was not yet in the sky, and only a few stars remained; twilight was thick.
He stood under the eaves, looking at the dark sky, his thin lips slightly curved, the mockery in the peach blossoms even stronger.
The weather in Liefeng Prefecture is about to change.
The Prince of Pingnan should pay the price for his actions.
Although Junfei had waited a long time that day and night, he wasn't very excited because there were still tough battles to fight.
The person most affected by this incident is Ye Jingxian.
When he learned that the Ye family and the Hu family were at odds, he was not too worried and did not intend to try to stop them.
Because the Hu family was his maternal family, and he himself was surnamed Ye.
He felt that if he stepped in to stop it, he would most likely be caught in the middle.
In addition, his broken leg has not yet healed, which gives him an excuse not to go.
In his view, this conflict was just something the Ye family had been stirring up for no reason. He was on the Hu family's side because the Hu family had given him tremendous support over the years.
Since Ye Junfei returned to the Pingnan Prince's Mansion, the Ye clan has clearly sided with Ye Junfei, which he finds extremely distasteful.
In his view, the Hu clan was much stronger than the Ye clan, which had been suppressed by the Prince of Pingnan, so he believed that the Hu clan would win this time.
Therefore, he kept sending people to gather information.
When he learned that neither the Prince of Pingnan nor Ye Junfei were in the palace, he planned to wait until the Ye and Hu factions had finished fighting before stepping in as a peacemaker.
In this way, he can avoid offending either side.
He had a good plan, but things didn't go as he expected at all.
When he heard that several important figures of the Hu clan had died at the hands of the Ye clan, he could no longer sit still.
He immediately had someone carry him away to mediate the fight.
However, he had previously shown less respect to the elders of the Ye clan, and this time he spoke in a way that sided with the Hu clan, so naturally the Ye clan would not listen to him.
The Ye clan, seething with anger, yelled at him, "Get out!"
Ye Jingxian had always been respected by everyone, and he had never been treated like this before. When the Ye clan told him to get lost, he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone!
Before Ye Junfei returned, he was the most favored young master of the Pingnan Prince's Mansion. Everyone treated him with utmost respect. Who would dare to be so rude to him?
Since Ye Junfei returned to the Pingnan Prince's Mansion, everything has changed.
He immediately turned to the Ye family members with a dark expression and said, "You are all utterly ignorant!"
Because of his attitude, the Ye clan felt even more that they could not allow him to succeed to the throne of Pingnan.
While he was cursing the members of the Ye clan in his heart, the members of the Ye clan were also cursing him.
Then Ye Jingxian witnessed the Ye clan members take out crossbows and kill several key figures of the Tian clan.
At this point, Ye Jingxian truly panicked.
He yelled at them to stop, but after offending the Ye family, no one was willing to listen to him.
He watched helplessly as more and more important members of the Tian family fell in pools of blood...
Although the situation later reversed, the crossbows brought by the Ye clan became ineffective, and the Tian clan killed many members of the Ye clan.
But Ye Jingxian knew that this time it was probably all over.
This incident left Ye Jingxian in a state of utter despair, a state that only eased slightly when the Prince of Pingnan arrived at the Tian family mansion.
Upon seeing the Prince of Pingnan, he said, "Father, the Imperial Clan Court officials have really gone too far!"
"They actually committed violence right here in the city! This kind of behavior shows they don't take you seriously at all!"
The Prince of Pingnan glanced at Ye Jingxian and said expressionlessly, "Don't forget, you also have the surname Ye!"
Ye Jingxian paused for a moment, then met the cold eyes of the Prince of Pingnan, and felt a tightness in his chest.
Whether Ye Jingxian is willing to admit it or not, he is no longer the most favored son of the Prince of Pingnan.
Now that the Zhou family has been destroyed, he has lost his financial support;
If the Hu clan is wiped out again, he will have no connections to support him.
Because of his wife's affair, the Prince of Pingnan also developed a dislike for him...
At this moment, Ye Jingxian belatedly realized something: everything he had relied on before was now gone.
Night View was so angry she was trembling, her heart was ice-cold.
He knew that the Prince of Pingnan disliked Ye Junfei and would not pass the throne to Ye Junfei.
However, in addition to his legitimate sons, the Prince of Pingnan also had several sons born out of wedlock.
Even without him, the Prince of Pingnan had other options.
If he fails to become the Prince of Pingnan, he will lose everything and may even lose his life.
At that moment, Ye Jingxian felt an intense fear.
In the past, when he encountered such a situation, he could go to the Prince of Pingnan or the Princess of Pingnan.
Now that the Princess Consort of Pingnan is under house arrest, the Prince of Pingnan is no longer close to her.
People who have always been pampered and loved will inevitably feel lost and dejected after losing all their affection.
Ye Jingxian returned to the palace in a daze, and happened to run into Ye Junfei, who was just returning from the Ye clan. His eyes instantly turned red.
Seeing him like this, Ye Junfei smiled gently and said very kindly, "Second brother, you're about to lose!"
Night View Leisure: "!!!!!!!"
If he could walk right now, he would definitely pounce on Ye Junfei and strangle him to death.
Seeing his expression, Ye Junfei smiled and said, "Are you very angry right now? Unfortunately, I'm quite happy."
"Especially seeing you looking like you want to kill me but can't do anything about it makes me feel really good."
"Don't worry, my position as heir is now very secure, and you can't do anything to me."
Ye Jingxian gritted his teeth and said, "Ye Junfei, don't be too smug!"
Ye Junfei's smile grew even gentler: "How could I not be pleased!"
"After all, I had nothing when I first returned to the palace, while you had everything."
"In less than a year, the situation has completely reversed. It's hard not to be smug!"
Night View Leisure: "..."
He had always known that Ye Junfei was good at infuriating people, but at this moment, he felt it even more deeply.
Ye Junfei is not only infuriating, but also capable of destroying one's spirit!
Ye Junfei walked into the palace with a smile, ignoring Ye Jingxian.
Ye Jingxian's trusted confidants dared not utter a sound, and silently pushed him back to the courtyard.
When they reached the threshold of the inner courtyard, Ye Jingxian was not properly supported by his confidant and accidentally bumped into him.
Ye Jingxian raised his hand and slapped his trusted aide, saying, "Now even you dare to bully me?"
