Chapter 461: Is It Silver or Gold?

t's also because I project my longing for my biological mother onto her. Even if it's just a psychological crutch, it's better than nothing at all. 。" He pulled her into his embrace, stroking her...At this time, Ye Wen had already helped Mu Shi back into the main hall to sit down. The family from the first wife, who were originally about to leave, all sat back down again. 。Ye Wen even crossed his legs, and said to the maid in the hall: "Bring some snacks. Today's matter is afraid that it won't be finished until half past noon, and it's almost lunchtime. We have to fill our stomachs." 。The commoners hurried to prepare and soon brought up some refreshments. They also sent a plate to His Royal Highness, the Sixth Prince. 。Night Wind spoke in a low voice to Mu Shi: "Mother, it seems that this Sixth Prince came today to pick a fight with the Second House. Let's just watch the show and ignore the rest for now." 。As for your anger, if you haven't gotten it all out this time, next time I'll accompany you to the Duke of Su's mansion and beat him up until you feel better, alright She held onto Mu Shi's hand and subtly sent her a calming spell, finally allowing Mu Shi's anger to subside somewhat, and her emotions to calm down. 。"Yaner, I listen to you" 。Mu finally nodded. Ye Wen reached out to wipe her tears, and at the same time turned back to comfort Ye Qingmei, "Sister, don't cry, if you cry again, Mother will follow suit and we'll be crying all night." 。“ Night Qingmei nodded, finally stopping her tears. 。Then looking at the bustling night scene over there, after asking Sixth Prince about his whereabouts, he was also about to sit down. 。"Result, Quan Qingyin glared at him with a bang on the table — "Ye Lao'er! Do you think I’m dead I'm still sitting here. You don't pay respects with proper etiquette and come right up asking me why I'm here. What country's rules are you following Who taught you to not respect my Quan family" He became increasingly angry, "What a bunch of nonsense! Just because I've lost power and didn't inherit the throne, you all disregard me, is that it From top to bottom, the Ye family doesn't show me any respect, nor do they follow the hierarchy of our Beiqi. What are you trying to do Are you plotting a rebellion If you want to rebel, just say so! I'll give you my blessing and we can fight right now!"

Ye Sheng was truly in a headache, cursing those bastards who said that the sixth prince had changed for the better.

This is even worse than before, it hasn't gotten any better at all. 。How on earth was he supposed to communicate with such people

The first one to stand up was Ye Wenyan. She not only stood up herself, but also pulled Ye Qingmei up as well

。Several people walked to the center of the Xuming Hall, knelt down on the ground, and shouted in unison: "We pay our respects to His Royal Highness, Your Highness a thousand years, a thousand thousand years!" After finishing, they also bowed their heads. 。Then Ye Wen said, "The rites for the eldest daughter have already been completed. As for my mother, she doesn't need to be included, does she" Quan Qingyin nodded. "It seems that the eldest daughter of the Ye family still understands the rules." 。“He completely ignored the Mu family and gestured for them to stand up. Then, he turned to Ye Jian Sheng and said, ‘Old Man Ye! It’s your turn now! Hurry up, all of you kneel down!’ Ye Jian Sheng was helpless, so he led his two wives, two concubines, and two daughters to kneel down. They also shouted “Your Highness, a thousand years!” just like the first wife, then bowed their heads.” 。

Quan Qingyin nodded, and didn't tell them to get up. He leaned back in his chair slowly and said: "Well, this looks like something." 。 。"Oh, are commoners this uppity nowadays I have to invite you three times and urge you four times before you even kneel Do you know how disrespectful you are being towards the Quan family" He then turned to the old madam. "Well, well, look who's still standing!"

The night old madam gritted her teeth, suppressing her anger, and said: “This old woman has an imperial decree, so when I see your Highness, it is necessary to show proper etiquette and greetings, but kneeling is not required." 。"Having said that, she bowed slightly, "Greetings to Your Highness, Six Prince. May your reign be prosperous." 。"His Royal Highness was dissatisfied, “Oh, there’s an imperial decree! Actually, whether it's an imperial decree or not doesn't matter. What's important is that this king once heard a rumor that on this continent, there are not only the dynasties we currently know, but also a dynasty called the Night Saint Dynasty. It is said that this Night Saint Dynasty wants to replace my Northern Qi Dynasty.” 。"I wonder if Madam Ye has ever heard of this Night Saint"

Madam Ye is defeated! The moment the term "Night Saint Dynasty" was uttered, she was utterly vanquished.

She felt that she might never be able to escape the damn Nightsoul Dynasty in her lifetime. Just hearing those two words, "Nightsoul," sent shivers down her spine. 。 However, Sixth Prince just brought it up at this moment. He was still refusing to kneel before, but now it seems like kneeling is unavoidable. If he doesn't kneel, he will be tied to the Night Saint Dynasty. 。So she trembled and knelt on the ground, then stammered, "This old woman is foolish, this old woman bows to Your Highness." 。His Royal Highness was very pleased. 。"Alright, good to know the rules. Get up!" He took a sip of tea, pondered for a moment, and finished a piece of pastry that Ye Wen had instructed the servants to bring. Then he looked at Ye Sheng again, "Didn't you ask me earlier what I was doing here today Well, I'll tell you now, listen carefully..." 。Night Second, this King has come to collect the debt. I want your family's one million taels... of gold 。“

Bang! Xiao Shubi stood up, and because he stood up too quickly, he knocked over the chair. The chair fell to the ground with a bang ” 。"What did you say One million taels of what""Gold! How is it, Madam Ye Er, that you have a doubt about this" He glanced at Chang Xueqiao again, "Oh, that one is Madam Ye Er, then what are you Mrs. Xiao""I am the Madam Ye Er!" Xiao Sh beyaz immediately said loudly, "I am the mistress of this General's mansion, he is Night Shengming's wife legally married." 。Today, she's only a concubine who entered the household. She doesn't deserve to be called the second mistress. 。"Oh, I see!" Quan Qingyin nodded, "Alright, this king doesn't care who among you is Ye Er-fu. This king today will wholeheartedly seek an account." 。One million taels of gold, written in black and white, sealed with a stamp, no one can shirk their responsibility. 。He waved his hand, and the following servants immediately took out a piece of paper from their sleeves. They unfolded it and held it up, circling the field, showing it to each member of the night family one by one. 。He lingered a while longer at Ye Wen's place, saying, "This seal was personally painted by Madam Xiao, the second wife of the Ye family. The account is in her own handwriting. Our Su Wangfu has done nothing wrong." 。"Everyone, have a good look, is it one million taels of gold" Ye Wenyan nodded slightly and cooperated very well by saying: "That's right, it's my second aunt's seal." 。Then he asked, “Why did she have to take responsibility for this debt How did this debt come about” That servant replied, “Fourth Miss asks a good question. To say how this debt came about, it is also related to Fourth Miss yourself...” 。"Oh" Ye Wenyan narrowed his eyes and asked again, "What is your connection to me Tell me more." 。"That person said: 'This origin is very deep. It can be said that if it weren't for Miss Ye Si, the one million taels of silver owed by Madam Ye Er wouldn't exist.' " 。Because Young Mistress Night Fourth had a betrothal with our young master, and they were both in love, our young master was happily waiting for Young Mistress Fourth to come home. However, he discovered that the Night Family had switched brides and sent over Young Mistress Night Third instead. 。This is a big deal, it's also defying the imperial decree, our young master definitely wouldn't do that! Later on, wasn't there some trouble Miss Ye San ran away, and my young master was quite happy about it. 。But later, Miss Ye San encountered another accident and was found by people from our household, who brought her back. 。" This person sighed as they spoke, “It's all because my lord is too kind. He thought that since we found this person, we couldn’t just throw him away again. " 。Moreover, at that time, Young Mistress Ye pleaded with my Lord earnestly to take her in. She said she didn't want to return to the Ye family and wished to stay in our mansion. 。But as you all know, my lord has no relationship with Miss Ye San, and he has no obligation to take her in. 。But she insisted on staying, and we had no choice but to treat her as a guest, letting her stay at our place temporarily until someone from her family came to take her back. Then, we would settle accounts with her family for all the expenses incurred during her stay and they could take her away. 。" He glanced at Xiao Shuibai, then continued, "Your Highness is kind and can't bear to see Second Madam crying about being separated from her daughter. So, even without the money, he let Second Madam take away Miss Ye San." 。But she was forced by Ye Er's wife to write an IOU, pressed her seal, and agreed to return it within three days. 。Well, the three-day deadline is up. We're here today to collect what's owed. 。Ye Wen understood, thinking to himself that it was no wonder Ye Hongzhuang had returned to the Ye family. He initially thought that Quan Qingyin's revenge was enough, and he found it boring, so he let Ye Hongzhuang go back. Unexpectedly, there was something else going on inside. 。ery frustrated,” Quan Qingcheng said, “as I haven't ascended the throne yet, my words lack authority. If I ask them for information, they won't be truthful and will just give me superficial answers.”...
