Everyone in the courtyard was shocked and looked over when they heard the sound.
I saw a group of people standing outside the yard. It was a large group. They were all tall and strong men with extraordinary aura. At first glance, they looked like government officials.
After the two leading men kicked the door open, they stepped aside and a tall figure appeared in front of everyone. The man walked slowly into the yard, with a gentle and elegant look and handsome demeanor.
Yu Ruhai recognized him as the young man from Beijing who had come to his home to look for his relatives last time, and asked with a flattering smile, "Why did Young Master Liu suddenly come to visit?"
Liu Ziqi glanced at the hemp rope in his hand. Yu Ruhai noticed his gaze and quickly hid the rope behind him. "There was a little trouble at home. I am sorry to have made a fool of myself, Master Liu. Please come in."
Liu Ziqi glanced at the situation in the yard, and his warm eyes turned cold. He raised his hand slightly, and a group of guards rushed into the yard behind him. The two leading ones directly took Yu Ruhai down and handcuffed his arms behind his back. Before Yu Ruhai could react what was happening, he was held down.
Yu Zhou was shocked and shouted, "What are you doing? Breaking into a private house in broad daylight, is there any law?"
A guard drew his sword and pointed it at Yu Zhou's forehead. Yu Zhou was so scared that her legs went weak and she fell to her knees on the ground.
Yu Qiaoshan hurried forward and wanted to rescue Yu Ruhai from the two guards. After all, the old man was his biological father. He could choose not to help if Yu Jiao quarreled with him, but he couldn't bear to see his own father being pinned to the ground by outsiders.
But as soon as Yu Qiaoshan moved, he was held tightly by a guard. Yu Qiaoshan had worked in the fields for half his life and was considered strong, but he did not expect that the guard was so strong that he had no room to struggle.
Just as Yu Zhixing was about to help his father, a sword was placed across his shoulder. Zhang turned pale with fright. Wang Mengyan had been afraid that the noise in the yard would scare little Platycodon, so she had been staying in the house. Now, she saw this scene through the window and rushed out holding little Platycodon. A guard stopped her directly, and little Platycodon burst into tears with fear.
Song and Yu Fuling were also frightened and held Yu Jiao's hand tightly, but the guards did not behave disrespectfully towards them.
The yard was exceptionally quiet for a moment except for the crying of little Platycodon.
Just then, Yu Mengshan hurried in. Seeing the scene in the yard, he was confused for a moment.
The villagers told him that many people had come to his house, and it seemed that something serious had happened. Yu Mengshan hurried back from the medicinal field and saw that his family was suppressed by a group of guards. Yu Mengshan plucked up his courage and shouted, "Where did the thieves come from? I have already reported to the police. You should release them quickly, otherwise when the yamen runners come, none of you will be able to escape!"
Liu Ziqi just glanced at him indifferently, not taking his words seriously at all. When he came to Yu's house last time, he remembered that the people from the second branch of the Yu's family were very nice to Yu Jiao. Due to this, some guards wanted to attack Yu Mengshan, but Liu Ziqi spoke out to stop them and asked the guards to "invite" Yu Mengshan to a corner.
Liu Ziqi beckoned to Yu Jiao, and when he looked at her, his eyes had become gentle, "Come to me."
Yu Jiao was also very surprised that Liu Ziqi would suddenly appear. She didn't understand why he made such a scene in Yu's house. She hesitated for a moment and walked towards Liu Ziqi.
"Mr. Liu, what are you doing...?" Yu Jiao walked up to his side and asked.
Liu Ziqi showed her a warm smile, his voice gentle and soothing, "You should call me brother, girl, I'm here to take you home."
As soon as these words were spoken, not only did everyone in the Yu family in the courtyard widen their eyes in surprise, but even Yu Jiao frowned slightly.
Seeing that there was no joy or happiness on her face, Liu Ziqi raised his hand and touched Yu Jiao's head. His smile became softer and he explained in a gentle voice, "I will slowly tell you about your life story. My father is busy with official duties and can't spare time, so he asked me to take you home."
Yu Jiao clenched her fingers and tilted her head to avoid Liu Ziqi's hand. Although Yu Jiao had figured out something when she saw the same jade ring that Meng Qingyun left for her at Liu Ziqi's place and Liu Sanniang's attitude towards her, Liu Ziqi's words now still caught her off guard.
Yu Jiao took a deep breath and calmed herself down, "Are you saying that my biological father is...?"
Liu Ziqi glanced at the Yu family members in the courtyard. He did not lower his voice, and it was unknown whether he was deliberately speaking for everyone in the Yu family to hear, "Your biological father is Liu Ci Fu, the cabinet minister in the court. I am your elder brother."
Seeing that Liu Ziqi didn't care and directly stated his identity, Yu Jiao also asked directly, "What evidence do you have? Didn't you check last time? I don't have the little red mole you mentioned on my back."
Yu Jiao's voice was very calm, and Liu Ziqi could not tell any emotion from it, but he could sense Yu Jiao's rejection. He put down his hand that was touching Yu Jiao's hair, and said gently, "I'll take you to see Liu Sanniang later, and she will tell you. I'm sorry for making you suffer these years, and now that I'm here to take you home, no one will dare to bully you anymore."
He glanced sideways at Yu Ruhai and Yu Zhoushi, and his voice turned cold, "Big brother will not let anyone who bullied you go."
