Since it was Ye Qingxue's request, the Prince and his wife decided to grant it. After Ye Cunsi had copied the list of crimes, the couple left with one copy.
Ye Qingxue led the group in a bow, respectfully seeing them off.
After they walked away, Ye Qingxue's lips curled into a wicked smile.
On his wedding day, Prince Ding Yunchi thought he was marrying one of the most beautiful women in the capital. Everyone came to congratulate him, and he was proud and honored. However, on their wedding night, his bride was found to be disfigured.
He thought he had married the second daughter of a noble family with a respectable background, and that he could tolerate Ye Cunjin's flaws, but in the end, the entire noble family was full of villains.
I can't wait to try it.
After what happened on the last date, the marriage between Ding Wang Yunchi and Ye Yabing should be settled soon, but she won't live to see that day, will she?
It was a bit of a shame, but it was alright; she had prepared a "surprise" for them all.
Fine rain was still falling, and a gust of wind brought a chill, causing Min Xiuxian to suddenly shiver.
Ye Qingxue looked at him, and the moment their eyes met, Min Xiuxian knew he was completely finished.
He was just thinking about how to get his whole family out of trouble unscathed.
Most importantly, how do we retreat unscathed? From where do we retreat, and to where do we retreat to?
He brought the Min family here, originally to seek justice for his sister and nephew, but now...?
Even though Ye Qingxue had no reason to make things difficult for the Min family at the moment, and no reason to harm them, allowing them to leave safely, what would happen after they left the Marquis's residence?
Min Yingying's heinous act of murdering the Marquis of Zhongyong, Ye Cunjin's defilement of Miss Lan, and the ugliness of the old lady not being the true matriarch of the Marquis's mansion...
All of this will implicate him.
Even more serious is that he once led several censors to kneel before the emperor to impeach Ye Qingxue, but the real villains turned out to be his own relatives!
It's as if he's carrying a weapon, charging ahead in the name of justice, all to rid the people of evil!
As it turned out, the real pests were right beside him, his own relatives. His actions of rushing to the forefront were not to rid the people of harm, but to aid and abet evil!
His own sister and nephew are such vicious and despicable people. In the eyes of others, how good can he be if he protects them?
Min Xiuxian felt that even if he and his family walked out of the Marquis of Zhongyong’s mansion safely today, his career would come to an end.
He will be condemned by everyone.
Even the emperor couldn't tolerate him.
Ye Qingxue smiled and said, "Lord Min, may I have a word with you in private?"
Then a servant, holding an umbrella, led them to a place where no one could hear them talking, and then stopped.
The wind and rain were still blowing, just like Min Xiuxian's mood at that moment, which was bleak and miserable.
Ye Qingxue said, "I request that Prince Yu and his wife keep these dirty deeds of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion a secret for the time being and not spread them. Lord Min is safe for the time being."
Min Xiuxian stared at her in a daze, his heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, how could a woman who grew up in the village have so many schemes!
But he sadly discovered that his current situation seemed to be entirely under her "manipulation"!
Otherwise, if he were dismissed from his post, the Min family would become the object of ridicule, their status would plummet, and he would become a sinner against the Min family.
Ye Qingxue asked him, "Ye Cunjin defiled Miss Lan and tried to ruin the life of the second young master of the Marquis's mansion. As Ye Cunjin's maternal uncle, what are your thoughts on this matter, Lord Min?"
What else could he think? Min Xiuxian felt sorrow and anger in his heart, but he said aloud, "Ye Cunjin is truly despicable! I never thought that my trusted nephew would be such a despicable and vile person. I am extremely disappointed in him! I wish I could tear him to pieces!"
Ye Qingxue raised an eyebrow: "So, does Lord Min have any ideas on how to make amends?"
Min Xiuxian said, "Cunsi was so badly harmed by him, almost ruining his life. It's really pitiful! But his act of protecting Miss Lan was also very kind. He even had the courage of the Marquis of Zhongyong back then. Fortunately, his leg was healed. He will definitely become a pillar of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the future!"
"I am willing to do everything in my power to help him rise through the ranks and restore the honor of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion!"
Ye Qingxue smiled: "If it is proven in the future that Cunsi is the son of the eldest son and not Lord Min's nephew, others will remember Lord Min's actions today as upholding justice even at the cost of family ties!"
"Lord Min recommended Cunsi for promotion step by step, based solely on his personal talent and character, without considering kinship ties. He truly serves the country and its people, which is admirable!"
This translates to:
"If you, Min Xiuxian, are willing to help Ye Cunsi rise step by step and become a pillar of the Great Zhou in the future, then the purpose of your visit to the Marquis's mansion today will not be revealed!"
"When the truth comes out one day, you will be the one who puts justice before family, and your reputation will not be damaged; on the contrary, you will be admired!"
Min Xiuxian understood.
Ye Cunjin caused Ye Cunsi to fall from grace, and his life became completely bleak.
From now on, he, Ye Cunjin's maternal uncle, will be responsible for helping Ye Cunsi's life get back on track!
Min Xiuxian glanced at Ye Cunsi, who was still sitting in a wheelchair, and said, "Only if the Second Young Master can stand up can others help him up!"
Ye Qingxue looked in Ye Cunsi's direction, her eyes shining brightly, and she said confidently, "My brother can stand up!"
The bloodline of one's father can never be bad.
Ye Qingxue added, "Besides that, Lord Min must also promise to do three things for me. Once they are done, the debt will be cleared!"
Min Xiuxian stared at her with wide eyes, barely suppressing his anger: "Please speak, young lady."
Ye Qingxue replied, "I haven't thought of it yet. I'll tell you within three days. Lord Min, just wait for the news."
Min Soo-hyun was furious.
