Ye Chen patted Chen Qiu's hand, then stood up. Mu Qing walked behind Ye Chen and handed him a piece of paper: "Master, this is the list we found!"
Ye Chen took the paper and asked: "Are you sure?"
Mu Qing: "It's all confirmed!"
Ye Chen walked to the door and looked at the people standing outside and said, "I have a list here. I have a list of all of you who are members of the Order of the Phoenix. You can stand up on your own or make a desperate attempt, but I can guarantee that no one on this list can escape!"
"Of course, I will handle the situation appropriately for those who come forward. This is a privilege granted to me by the Emperor!"
No one moved below. Ye Chen glanced at the crowd, raised the corner of his mouth and said: "Very good, let's wait and see!"
Then he walked to Aunt Zhao's side, looked at the old woman who still had a calm face, and said with a smile: "Princess Duan Jing, you are the only daughter of the previous emperor, right?"
"If your father hadn't killed the regent, the Great Xia Kingdom wouldn't have been destroyed, right? Your father is selfish and arrogant, but he has no talent for governing a country."
Aunt Zhao looked up at Ye Chen and said, "I don't know what you are talking about. What Princess Duanjing? I don't know her!"
Ye Chen smiled playfully and said, "Fuze Cave in Langya Mountain!"
Ye Chen had said so much before, but Aunt Zhao didn't show any emotion. But after Ye Chen said this, she rushed in front of him, but was blocked by Mu Qing. Aunt Zhao gritted her teeth and asked: "How much do you know?"
Ye Chen smiled and said: "It's not much, I just happened to find it and it can be mine!"
Aunt Zhao was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "Hahaha, you want to blow me up? I won't be fooled, there is no way you can open it!"
Ye Chen shook his head, took out the relic that Master Wenxin had given him, and said, "I wonder if you recognize this?"
When Aunt Zhao saw the relic, she immediately rushed over to grab it, but was stopped by Mu Qing.
Aunt Zhao glared at Ye Chen fiercely and said, "What did you do to him? How did you get this thing?"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "He gave it to me. What? Did you recognize it?"
Aunt Zhao sneered and said, "Even if it's in your hands, what does it matter? You still can't open it!"
Ye Chen did not argue with Aunt Zhao on this issue anymore. He sighed and said, "It doesn't matter to me if you think so. You won't see the result in the end anyway!"
Aunt Zhao sneered and said, "You can't trap me!"
Ye Chen walked up to Chen Qiu and said, "Madam, let's go. Leave this to Mu Qing and Ming Yue. It's going to be bloody soon!"
Aunt Zhao suddenly burst into laughter and said, "The Great Xia Kingdom will soon be restored. You are too late. You can't stop it!"
Ye Chen turned around and said, "There's no point in me arguing with you here. You personally trained your daughter-in-law, right? She's not Fang Gucheng's biological daughter, but an adopted daughter, right?"
"The person behind this imperial merchant Fang Gucheng is your niece, Princess Fuxia, right?"
Aunt Zhao's originally smiling face turned ferocious after hearing Ye Chen's words. She pounced on Ye Chen again and roared, "How much do you know? I won't let you go. The people from the Order of the Phoenix will kill you."
Ye Chen smiled and said: "They will definitely kill me, but whether they can kill me or not is unknown, and you won't be able to see the result!"
Ye Chen turned to Yong'an Hou and said, "Grandfather, you should have heard it clearly now, right? Your Yong'an Hou Mansion is a nest of the Phoenix Society."
"Now it's no longer the Shen family's business. Leave it to my people to handle. You and grandma can go first!"
Yong'an Hou stared at Aunt Zhao, then walked up to her and said, "When Cuilan saved you, it was also your plan, right?"
Aunt Zhao sneered and said, "Who made her so stupid? She treats me as a sister? You destroyed my family's kingdom, I don't care about your love."
"Originally, my first choice was Ye Xuan, not you. However, he and his wife were inseparable, so I didn't have the chance to make a move. Later, by chance, I had a relationship with you, so I just went along with it."
"But later I realized that choosing you was the right decision, because you're so easy to control. During the time when you and her were not in Kyoto, I founded the Order of the Phoenix. Now the Order of the Phoenix is spread throughout the Great Yin Kingdom and can take back our kingdom at any time!"
"Humph, if the Order of the Phoenix weren't worried about me being exposed, those shops would all be our branches. To tell you the truth, 80% of the Shen family's servants are now members of the Order of the Phoenix!"
Yong'an Hou was now a little unsteady on his feet. Ye Chen said, "You are saying this to tell us that if you want to leave, we can't stop you."
Aunt Zhao snorted coldly and said, "Isn't it? How can you stop me with just a bunch of you?"
Ye Chen smiled, then stretched out his hands and clapped twice. Immediately, a circle of men in black appeared on the roof and walls surrounding the courtyard. Each of them had their face covered with black cloth and their black clothes were embroidered with golden cloud patterns.
Aunt Zhao was stunned for a moment and said, "Black Cloud Guards!"
Ye Chen took Shen Qiu's hand and said, "Madam, let's go."
Then he said to the Marquis of Yong'an, "Grandfather, are you not leaving yet?"
Ye Chen pulled Shen Qiu around the screen and went to the back. Old Madam Shen walked to the side of Yong'an Hou, took Yong'an Hou's hand and said: "This is not a family matter, it is a state matter. We should go!"
After Chen Qiu and Ye Chen came out, they went to Chen Qiu's boudoir. Old Madam Shen and Marquis Yong'an returned to their own rooms. Chen Qiu was worried, so she asked Xing'er to go with them. After Xiaofu came out, he went back to follow Mingyue!
Chen Qiu asked Ye Chen: "Did you arrange all these in the study room those few days?"
Ye Chen played with the calluses on Chen Qiu's hands and said: "Yes"
Chen Qiu asked again: "Did you have someone kill my second sister?"
Ye Chen did not look up and still answered: "Yes"
Chen Qiu reached out and touched Ye Chen's face and said, "Why didn't you tell me when you decided to do it? You don't have to bear all this alone."
When Ye Chen decided to kill Shen Rouyun, he thought that Shen Qiu might be angry with him, or even have a grudge against him. He was afraid of this. After all, he finally had his Qiu'er again, and he didn't want any misunderstandings between them. However, compared to Shen Qiu's reputation and safety, these were not important.
He didn't expect that his Qiu'er knew his inner struggle!
Ye Chen looked up and said, "Qiu'er, don't you blame me?"
Chen Qiu shook his head and said, "I don't blame you. To be honest, when I heard what my second sister was saying, I also wanted to kill her, but as a daughter of the Shen family, I couldn't bear to do it!"
"Then you forgot about it after the next exam. Did you receive instructions from Princess An Ning?"
Ye Chen said: "How did Qiu'er know?"
Chen Qiu said: "Aunt Zhao and Second Aunt actually have no direct interest relationship with me. It will not benefit them if they treat me like this. Instead, it will attract other people's attention to them."
"But Princess An Ning is interested in you, and she has the ability to deal with me!"
"If Shen Rouyun doesn't die, Aunt Zhao and Second Aunt will take the opportunity to exaggerate outside. Not only me, but also the Ye family will be affected! In this way, I will be attacked from both sides!"
Ye Chen hugged Chen Qiu, kissed Chen Qiu on the forehead and said: "Qiu'er, I'm sorry, I should have solved these problems earlier! Otherwise, you wouldn't have suffered these grievances."
