Chapter 371 No Need to Thank Me (Update 1)
Wonderful, really wonderful.
Even those who came here specially to watch the fun today never expected that such an "accident" would happen.
Ye Shixian is actually pregnant!
Now, Murong Ye can't escape at all.
After a brief silence, a mocking voice came from the crowd:
"Hey! Let's all make way! Don't delay Master Murong from entering!"
If dying now could make all this stop, Murong Ye thought, he would be willing to die.
This huge feeling of shame, as if he had been stripped naked, quickly engulfed him.
His life had been so smooth before that when a series of blows came, he was completely stunned.
But he knew that now, no matter whether he left or stayed, he would always be a joke!
Of course, the others didn't care what he thought. Instead, they were very considerate and responded quickly. They actually made way for him to pass.
Finally, Murong Ye turned his body stiffly.
At this time, he could finally see the scene inside clearly.
Ye Shixian collapsed on the ground with her eyes closed, and the dress beneath her was soaked with blood.
Murong Ye didn't know how he walked over until he arrived in front of Ye Shixian, three steps away, when he smelled a strong smell of blood.
This suddenly reminded him that Gao was hanged to death by Ye Shixian herself, and this smelled like a dead person.
Murong Ye bent over and vomited uncontrollably.
The scene was so chaotic that a hint of disgust and contempt flashed across Zhao Chengyin's eyes.
He and Murong Yang served in the same dynasty and had met Murong Ye more than once. In the past, everyone said that a tiger father will have a dog son, and they always praised Murong Ye highly. However, Murong Ye's performance today made people realize that he was just a coward and incompetent at heart.
Ye Shixian’s crime of killing someone is unforgivable, but Murong Ye has different feelings towards her. After coming here, his first reaction is to run?
If it weren't for what happened to Ye Shixian, I'm afraid he wouldn't even come close!
Zhao Chengyin waved his hand and said, "Take her down immediately for treatment."
Ye Shixian could not escape death because of the mistake she made, but she couldn't die here at this time.
The old doctor responded repeatedly, then shook his head and sighed, "Sir, I can only do my best to treat her. If she is lucky, she may be able to save her life, but the child... is definitely not going to be saved."
Zhao Chengyin said: "Just do your best."
A crowd hurriedly carried Ye Shixian away, leaving only a mess on the scene.
Murong Ye didn't look at it. He held his knee with one hand and vomited violently.
The noisy sounds around gradually dissipated - after such a commotion, the case would definitely not be completed today.
The crowd gradually dispersed, looking back from time to time as they left, with expressions of amazement and emotion on their faces.
This is truly the biggest gossip in Beijing in recent days!
"If you ask me, it would be better for Ye Shixian not to be saved and just die!"
"That's right! If I were her, I would be so ashamed to live!"
"Tsk, who would have thought that she looks so quiet and gentle on the surface, but actually does such a shameful thing!"
"She can even kill her own mother, so what else can't she do?"
The voices of discussion, whether far or near, kept piercing Murong Ye's ears.
Finally, he regained consciousness and stood up with a slight sway.
Looking at the blood dripping not far away, he still felt a flutter in his heart.
Just then, he finally discovered that there was still one person who had not left.
——Ye Chutang.
He twitched his lips:
"Now, are you satisfied?"
Ye Chutang dusted off his clothes and shook his head slightly.
"Mr. Murong, it seems that you do have a deep prejudice against me. The situation has come to this point, and it is not something I can control."
This was also true. She had indeed not expected that Ye Shixian was already pregnant. She was so emotional today that she knew she could not keep the child.
Murong Ye's face was full of sarcasm: "Didn't you come here today just to see her and my jokes?!"
Ye Chutang glanced at him indifferently.
"No."
"I'm here to collect Gao's body."
Murong Ye's whole body froze, and at that moment he didn't know what to say.
"Her body has been lying in the funeral cemetery for seven days. Today is her seventh day."
It’s a pity that her only daughter won’t be able to see her off.
Ye Shixian's own life and death was in danger, so how could she care about Gao's family?
Not only her, everyone seemed to have forgotten about it.
I'm afraid Gao would never have expected during her lifetime that the person who would plan her funeral would be Ye Chutang, the person she once despised and hated the most!
"We are relatives after all." Ye Chutang said.
Murong Ye couldn't utter another word.
At this moment, a shrill cry suddenly came from the house, as if Ye Shixian had woken up and was suffering great pain.
Murong Ye shuddered all over, and his hair stood up!
Ye Chutang looked at him and raised his eyebrows slightly.
She said sincerely:
"It seems that I should say: My condolences."
…
What happened that day quickly became the topic of conversation throughout the capital.
Everyone was shocked that Ye Shixian was so cruel that she killed her own mother. They also deeply despised her for getting pregnant without being married. She was truly a complete disgrace to herself!
The Murong Mansion was also brought into disgrace.
Murong Ye knelt in the ancestral hall all night.
Ye Chutang was cleared of her grievances, and later someone spread the rumor that she had waited in the yamen for a long time and found the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture to plead for mercy, expressing her willingness to take care of Gao's final affairs.
Those who had scolded her before felt more and more apologetic.
But Ye Chutang didn't care about these.
Two days later, she went to the yamen again, this time to see Ye Shixian.
Ye Shixian was locked up in jail, and was extremely weak due to a recent miscarriage.
When Ye Chutang saw her, he almost didn't recognize that the disheveled female prisoner leaning against the wall was the once glorious eldest daughter of the Ye family.
Ye Shixian originally had her eyes closed, but when she heard the noise, she slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were dull and it took her a while to focus and recognize the person standing at the cell door.
A deep and resentful hatred surged into Ye Shixian's heart, causing her facial features to twist.
"You! How dare you come!"
Ye Shixian's voice was hoarse, and coupled with her crazy appearance at the moment, she really looked like a ghost.
But now she couldn't even get up, and could only pound the cold, hard, broken bed frantically.
Ye Chutang looked at her quietly.
"I have already finished my second aunt's funeral."
Ye Shixian suddenly opened her eyes wide: "What did you say!?"
Before this, she was in a daze and no one talked to her about this.
Ye Chutang smiled faintly.
"Don't worry. Although she treated me harshly in the past, the dead are the greatest."
"By the way, I didn't bury her with Mingze. Instead, I buried her in the east of the city, so that Mingze wouldn't see her in the underworld and know that you killed her. He wouldn't be able to rest in peace even after death."
There seemed to be a cold frost in Ye Chutang's eyes.
She said calmly:
"It's just a small favor, so you don't have to thank me."
