Chen Qiu said: "You can't predict the future. If she wants to deal with me, I'll just wait. I'm not afraid of her!"
When Ye Chen heard Chen Qiu say this, his arms around Chen Qiu tightened unconsciously and he said, "I won't let her hurt you. Leave it to me, okay?"
"Qiu'er, do you know? I'm so afraid that you will blame me, blame me for killing Shen Rouyun!"
Chen Qiu looked up at Ye Chen and said, "Actually, my relationship with her is not very good. Although it's not to the point of life and death, we are like water and fire."
"Husband, don't blame yourself. I don't blame you. If you weren't worried about me, you wouldn't care about how others treat me, right? You always think about me, so how could I blame you?"
Chen Qiu seemed to have thought of something and said, "Is the power of the Phoenix Society really as great as Aunt Zhao said?"
Ye Chen nodded and said: "I'm afraid it's even worse than what she said!"
Shen Qiu said worriedly: "Doesn't that mean the battle with the Order of the Phoenix has just begun?"
Ye Chen nodded and said: "Yes, it's just the beginning."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Qing's voice came from outside the door: "Master, everything has been handled!"
Ye Chen and Shen Qiu looked at each other, then opened the door and went out.
They came to the main hall together. There was almost no fighting in the hall. The people lying on the ground were all pierced by arrows!
In the corner of the main hall, there were some people who were trembling with fear and huddled together.
Ye Chen looked at these people, and felt an indescribable heaviness in his heart. These were all ordinary people from the Great Yin Kingdom. Why bother? Wouldn't it be better to just live a good life?
Chen Qiu held Ye Chen's hand, unconsciously tightening it. This was just the beginning. How many more people would die in the future? Was it really that important whether the Chu or Li family ruled the country? Did it matter to the people who ruled? As long as the people had enough food and clothing, they really didn't care who ruled.
A "plop" sound came from behind them. When they turned around, they found that it was Marquis Yong'an.
Seeing this scene, Yong'an Hou took a step back and bumped into the screen, making a noise. Such a scene was actually nothing to him, but this was not a battlefield, this was his home!
In just two quarters of an hour, more than half of the hundred or so people in the mansion died.
But what can be done? What makes Yong'an Hou even more surprised is that there are so many rebels in his own home, and he is completely unaware of it.
Marquis Yong'an looked at Aunt Zhao who was lying there with her eyes open, slowly walked to her side, and reached out to close her eyes.
Although she likes to cry, make a fuss, and even commit suicide, she is indeed gentle and considerate. No matter when he wants comfort, she can give it to him.
She understands romance and men better than Old Lady Shen. She knows how to keep a man. In front of her, Old Lady Shen loses completely.
In the end, those people were dealt with by Ye Chen's men, and Aunt Zhao and Fang were buried separately.
The Shen family used to have more than a hundred people, but now there are only about twenty people left. Suddenly, the entire Shen Mansion became deserted!
The next day, Shen Rouyun was buried as the unmarried daughter of the Shen family.
Ye Chen and Shen Qiu said goodbye to the two elders of the Shen family and returned to the Duke's Mansion.
After Ye Chen and Shen Qiu went to Rongwei Hall to visit their grandparents, Ye Chen sent Shen Qiu back to Qiuchen Courtyard, and then he bathed and changed into court clothes before entering the palace.
Go to the study.
Ye Chen: "Your Majesty, these are the people we have found out about. They are spread across the residences of every lord in Kyoto City, but they were not trained by the Order of the Phoenix."
"Some were bribed, some were threatened, and some were driven by lust! Anyway, they used every possible means!"
"Most people don't know who they're gathering information for, so it's not a big deal!"
The emperor looked at the list Ye Chen handed over and said, "I hope there won't be another case like the Shen family!"
"If every family was like the Shen family, I wouldn't resist and would just give it to them to save them the trouble!"
When Ye Chen heard the emperor say this, he said, "Uncle, are you sure that grandpa won't come to see you at night?"
The emperor sneered and said, "You, you are the only one who dares to speak to me like that."
"By the way, what are you going to do about the Shen family?"
Ye Chen said: "My father-in-law and mother-in-law are in the northwest. I plan to persuade them to go there. Yong'an Hou will no longer exist. My father-in-law has his own title. It can be regarded as a new beginning for the Shen family!"
The emperor nodded and said, "Well, this is a good suggestion. But does your wife agree? Her relatives won't be around anymore!"
Ye Chen glared at the emperor and said, "What do you mean they are not around? Aren't my grandparents, my children, and I all here?"
"I won't let my wife miss her parents' home. Don't worry!"
The emperor was choked, but he didn't get angry, he just smiled.
Ye Chen said: "Qiu'er and I have discussed that we will send quilts to the elderly in the villages near Kyoto on the Double Ninth Festival. It can be regarded as a good deed."
The emperor laughed and said, "You want to use this opportunity to move those things to another place, right?"
Ye Chen said: "Yes, I'm afraid I can't help but sell them all to you! You didn't see that these people really have a lot of good things in their hands!"
The emperor laughed and said, "Didn't you give me the list? It seems that the people in Kyoto are richer than I thought!"
Ye Chen said: "So, make arrangements as soon as possible. We still have a lot of things to do, and we can't delay even a step!"
Finally, after the two agreed on the hiding place of those things, Ye Chen returned to the Duke's Mansion.
The old Duke still has acupuncture every day, but it is not like before, and the needles used by Lan Yu look normal.
Ye Chen originally wanted to discuss with Shen Qiu about the two elders of the Shen family going to the northwest, but before he started, the Yong'an Marquis and his wife arrived.
Let’s sit together in Rongwei Hall.
The old Duke said, "Brother, it's already happened. There's no point in thinking too much. It's better to let it go. I only realized this in the past few months!"
“Cherish the people in front of you!”
Yong'an Hou smiled and said, "Brother Ye, I understand. I have been following you since I was young. The only time I didn't listen to you was when I raised an evil ghost by my side!"
The old Duke said, "It's all in the past. We're all half buried in the earth. We don't have that much time to regret. Let's move on!"
Yong'an Hou nodded and said, "I thought so too, so I decided to take Cuilan to the northwest to reunite with her family. After such a big incident, I no longer have the face to continue to occupy the title. I have already written to the emperor and asked to remove the title!"
Ye Chen felt relieved, as this saved him a lot of trouble. Ye Chen looked at Chen Qiu, who also had a pleased smile on his face. Ye Chen's guess was correct, his Qiu Er was very happy that Yong'an Marquis did this.
Three days later, at the hour of Mao in the morning, Chen Qiu and Ye Chen saw the two elders of the Shen family off at the city gate. Now they were just the parents of General Zhenbei, no longer the Marquis and his wife.
The Shen family's house remained, but it was renamed the Zhenbei General's Mansion! Only a few elderly people who were used to it stayed behind! Everyone else was sent away.
When Shen Qiu's grandparents passed away, they sold all the shops of the Shen family, leaving only the farm. Those shops were bought back by Ye Chen and included in Shen Qiu's dowry.
Seven days later, the results of the autumn examination were announced, and Ye Chen won the title of Jieyuan.
