Xiaowu blinked.
Although Sister said it was the first time she met them, but when she was hiding behind the screen just now, she felt that Sister seemed to know them quite well.
During the conversation, the elder sister was able to convince the other party with just a few words, and it didn't seem like they were meeting for the first time.
Xiao Wu had a vague guess in his mind, but he didn't ask any further. He raised his little face and smiled brightly.
——What sister said is right!
…
After explaining the things in the shop, Ye Chutang closed the door again and refused to see the guests.
The wound on her neck had long since healed, leaving only a shallow scar, which was particularly conspicuous on her slender neck as delicate as cream.
Three days passed in a flash.
On this day, Ye Chutang got up early for a rare occasion. He accompanied Xiaowu for breakfast and then took her to play chess in the yard.
Xiao Wu was so happy that he quickly sat down on the stone bench opposite Ye Chutang, his little face full of eagerness to try.
——Sister rarely has such free time on weekdays! This opportunity is rare, so we must cherish it!
Ye Chutang pinched a white chess piece, and his fingertips felt warm and cool.
"Kuroko goes first."
Pop.
Xiaowu immediately placed a move.
Ye Chutang followed closely beside him.
As time passed, Xiaowu's moves became slower and slower, and sometimes he would hold his chin and think for a long time before taking a step.
Ye Chutang did not urge her either, his eyes were clear and relaxed, his whole body exuding an aura of laziness and leisure.
Xiao Wu couldn't help but look up at her, feeling a little curious.
——Sister, you seem to be in a good mood today?
Seeing that his black pieces were at a disadvantage, Xiaowu frowned in distress.
Although my sister has already let it go, it’s still very difficult... I wonder what the next game between the Crown Prince and my sister will be like?
"Second Miss!"
The sudden voice interrupted Xiaowu's thoughts. She turned her head and saw a little maid running towards her in a hurry.
Looks like something very important.
Ye Chutang tilted his head slightly: "What's the matter?"
The little maid was panting, and the words were on the tip of her tongue but she couldn't say them. She was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead.
After a long while, she stammered, "Second Miss, Lord Ye's case has been sentenced!"
Xiaowu's eyes widened instantly.
Ye Chutang looked very calm: "How is it?"
The little maid bit her lip and then lowered her head.
"Lord Ye was corrupt and committed bribery. He has been dismissed from his post and his property has been confiscated! He will be exiled to Tongbei from today!"
…
Imperial College.
The students walked towards Guangye Hall one after another. Qiao Zimo appeared from nowhere, walked through the crowd, and pulled Ye Yunfeng aside.
"A Feng! Big news!"
Ye Yunfeng glanced at him and said, "Why, you want to skip class again? Let me make it clear first, I won't go."
My elder sister had specifically told him before that he should stay in the Imperial College well-behaved during this period of time.
"Oh! No!"
Qiao Zimo was about to say something but stopped himself. He turned his head and looked around. Seeing Ye Jingyan looking over here, he waved frantically, motioning him to come over.
Ye Jingyan's eyes moved slightly, and he deliberately fell behind a few steps and came to the side of the two.
"Brother Zimo, what's wrong?"
Qiao Zimo looked awkward, as if he didn't know how to start. He finally scratched his head and said:
"You don't know yet? Your case of Ye Heng has a conclusion!"
He lowered his voice so that only the two brothers could hear.
"Confiscate the property! Exile!"
After the words fell, Ye Jingyan's eyelashes trembled, but Ye Yunfeng could not hide his shock and anger.
"What did you say!?"
Instead of immediate execution, he was only confiscated his property and exiled!? (End of this chapter)
