Chapter 551: Seeking Justice for the Empress Dowager
red was more interested. "Your man"“He’s a man of the future, after all! He’s not even married yet!”"You're so lucky, you're beautiful and your husband is handsome too. Just like my old friend, both...I didn't want you to be someone else's daughter-in-law, and I don't think you and Quan Qingcheng are a good match either. 。I'm just getting you closer to the water tower, building a good relationship with Empress Yu. Even if it's for my own sake, raising my status, this is a necessary step. 。"Chu Lian, you are the daughter of a concubine in the Ye family. You must know what kind of marriage a concubine's daughter can hope for." 。... As for the elder sister, she was a girl who had been betrothed once before. We didn't think much of it, but in the future outsiders would surely criticize her. ... 。Even if I and Shi Liyuan are here to hold the fort for you, I still hope that your wings will become more abundant. In the future, even if I and he are gone, you will be able to live well and stand at the top of Lin'an City's inner city. 。"
This story is used to explain what was said before, but the more it's explained, the more Ye Chu Lian panics, and even Zhuai Er starts to panic as well. "
"Miss, what do you mean that you and the Emperor are gone Can we say something auspicious Don't talk like this." 。"
Ye Chu Lian also said, “How could you and the Heavenly Sovereign not be here The Heavenly Sovereign has been here for over four hundred years. Could it be that he died No, no, the Heavenly Sovereign lives forever with the heavens, Heavenly Sovereign’s longevity!”
Ye Wen Yan felt that these past few centuries, Shi Li Yuan's brainwashing of mortals had been quite successful, at least the phrase "Heavenly Sovereign's Longevity" had deeply rooted itself in their hearts. It was like burning incense and worshipping Buddha, no matter what they did afterwards, they had to say “Heavenly Sovereign’s Longevity,” only then could they feel at ease, only then would they feel that what they were doing could be accomplished>>> 。She patted Ye Chulian, "Don't get excited, I didn't mean that" 。What I said about not being around anymore means that if one day we want to travel the world, the people I care about staying in Beijing mustn't be bullied. 。" You said that, then I feel relieved. 。"
"mm 。She nodded again, “So I’ve made as many plans for you as possible, but you guys have to step up too.” 。Only by holding the titles of Empress, Sister-in-law, and Younger Sister could one survive. 。Perhaps the men you have a crush on are attracted to this point, rather than you yourself. In that case, whether the marriage succeeds or not doesn't really matter. 。So you yourselves also have to work hard, build your own network and abilities, so that in the future you won't be looked down upon by your in-laws. 。I can't protect you for the rest of your lives. We will eventually have to live separately, so while we're still together, let's make more plans. 。”
It was quiet in the carriage for a long time, no one spoke. Later, Ye Chulian sniffed and said to her maid, Suixi: "See, isn't my young lady quite ambitious We didn't learn from Fourth Sister in vain back at home. At least she is truly someone worth learning from>>> 。I had always thought that my elder sister lived a carefree life, but now I understand that it was not just about being carefree. There was also an openness and sincerity in her way of living. 。"
She looked at Ye Wen, "Sister, do you think the four words 'true feelings' are particularly strange Actually, there's nothing strange about it. In our kind of family, the most precious thing is true feelings." 。There's always a veil between people, whether it's siblings, parents and children, or even spouses. 。The back of the gauze is hazy, you think you can see everything, but in reality, you see nothing. 。I hate that kind of life, but I can't escape it. 。Fortunately, now that I have a new way of life, I still don't know how to repay my elder sister. 。" What do I want in return Just that you all live well and cause me less trouble. " 。Though they hadn't yet reached the inner city, the carriage had gradually slowed down until it finally stopped. 。Zhui'er, not understanding, lifted the curtain and looked outside. She saw Zhou Shang driving the carriage to a corner and stretching his neck forward to look ahead. 。Then she asked Zhou Shang, "What's wrong" Zhou Shang pointed to the front and said, "Miss Zhuai, look, those people are smashing a pastry shop, saying they are avenging the Empress Dowager. This is the third group we've encountered along the way." 。There was also a restaurant and a fabric shop that had been destroyed previously. 。It was just a small group, only two or three people, going to cause trouble. And they were all girls! I thought they were friends with our young mistress, so I didn't think much of it. 。But look at this group, there are men and women, six or seven people, all the good snacks were given to them! Isn't that unfair” That's definitely not right!Zhuier went back to the carriage and told Ye Wen about it. Ye Wen thought for a moment, then told Zhou Shang: "Go to Shuntian Street and see how many more shops have been smashed." 。Zhou Shang responded with a nod, immediately urging his carriage to gallop down Shuntian Avenue. 。As he left, he also pulled down a wooden sign inscribed with the character "night" and put on a hat himself. No one could tell who this carriage belonged to. 。On Shuntian Street, there were also people smashing and looting. Some were just making a small fuss, while others went all the way to robbery and rampage, almost killing and setting fires. 。All those who took action, without exception, were fighting under the banner of avenging the Empress Dowager. They targeted those who had ostracized Ye Wen at night, or more accurately, those whom Shi Liyuan had punished that day. 。The moment the Empress Dowager's name was uttered, even the shopkeepers and clerks in those stores dared not say a word. After all, they were also guilty, thinking that it might be the Emperor's anger that hadn't yet come out, and today he had come to find them for venting his frustrations. 。Even some knelt down, kowtowing in the direction of Yan Huagong, muttering incessantly for the Emperor to spare their lives. 。The more this happened, the more violent those involved in smashing and looting became. Some even went so far as to beat people up after smashing shops. 。The people being beaten didn't dare to resist, they all resignedly knelt on the ground and took the beating. Some people, in order to avoid being beaten a few times less, offered money, jewelry, or fabric to the men and women who were doing the beating. 。In short, just pick up the good things and throw them out to save your life. 。Those who tasted the sweetness, began to demand more. The one who gave more wouldn't be beaten, and the one who gave less would be beaten more. 。Of course, all of this is recorded on Ye Wen's head. They will tell those people: "The filial piety you have shown and the wealth you have offered is not for us, but for the Empress Dowager." 。After this, all these things will be delivered to the Empress Dowager's hands. Whether or not you can be forgiven depends on your fate. 。So don't blame us, blame yourselves for not picking the right side in the first place. 。“
The shopkeeper was bullied so badly, he crouched on the ground crying, saying as he cried: “You guys didn’t stand by Empress Dowager and Emperor’s side back then either! I recognize you, young master Liu. You said that Lord Emperor didn’t want Miss Ye Si anymore, that Miss Ye Si would be a woman who had been rejected twice. No matter how beautiful she is, no one will dare to marry her.” 。"How did you suddenly become the one venting for the Empress Dowager Why are you taking up for the Empress Dowager"
That young master Liu came up and kicked him, "Nonsense! I've always been on the side of the Empress Dowager. For the Empress Dowager, I can ruin your entire street! It serves you right that you provoked the Empress Dowager in the first place, this is what you deserve!"
What Not convinced
Even if you are, you better swallow it. If you have the guts, go find Empress Dowager to seek revenge!
If you dare not, don't talk nonsense! Listen up, this isn't over today. I'll be back tomorrow, and get your money and possessions ready for me. Oh no, better yet, get them ready for Empress Dowager.
Whoever presents something that satisfies the Empress and Emperor tomorrow will be spared from punishment. 。As soon as these words were uttered, more and more people began to gnash their teeth in anger, and a portion of the resentment they felt towards those individuals was now directed at Ye Wenyan. 。 。For example, the witch from the Ye family is indeed not a good person. After gaining power as empress, she will surely torment them to death!
However, some people don't think so. They raised their own doubts: “Even if we were wrong, Emperor Zun himself punished us that day and said this matter was over. Why are you still seeking revenge”
“You always say you're taking revenge for Empress Dowager, but did the Empress Dowager really ask you to do so Although the Empress Dowager was domineering before, she also did many good deeds, especially when the Earth Dragon turned over. She single-handedly saved at least half the city's people... 。"Such a good person would really do such violent acts" "Yes! We don't believe this is done by the Empress and Emperor. We're going to ask the Empress and Emperor!" "To be honest, we have indeed spoken ill of the Empress, but the one who truly hurt the Empress was..." 。"If you really want to get back at the Empress Dowager, then you should go and cause a ruckus at Duke Su's mansion!" "That's right! Go to Duke Su's mansion! Go to Duke Su's mansion!" For a time, the crowd was filled with righteous anger, urging those people towards Duke Su's mansion. 。Ye Chu Lian whispered, "Sister, do you think they dare to go" Ye Wen Yan said, "They dare! Their purpose is to make enemies for me. So, the enemy they set up, their status should be as valuable as possible, and their power should be as great as possible." 。They would love nothing more than to drive a wedge between me and the king, that's how they achieve their goal. 。The higher you praise someone, the crueler you'll be when you kill them. 。"
Ye Chu Lian gasped, "So that's how it is" 。They hate your sister, but they can't afford to offend you. So, they do this, making everyone think they are standing up for you. 。They beat and robbed those people, as a result, those people remember you as their enemy, it has nothing to do with those people. 。" She was so angry that she wanted to go find those people and fight them, but they were already gone, heading in the direction of Su Wangfu. " 。Zhou Shang, follow up! 。Ye Wen lowered the car curtain and stopped looking out. 。The carriage started moving again. After another two hours, they reached the Su Wangfu. 。The front of the Duke's Mansion was already crowded with people. Some came to cause trouble, some came to watch the excitement, and some carried eggs and vegetables, wanting to sell them to those causing trouble, to be used for smashing the gates of the Duke's Mansion. 。That young master Liu stood up again, head held high, pointing at the gate of Duke Su's Mansion with righteous indignation and said— "Your Highness, the person who hurt the Empress Dowager the most, everyone says, should we drag him out to vent our anger for Her"ed. After all, she was still here. As long as Ye Qingmei was still breathing, with her around, nothing major could happen. 。So she instructed Ji Rong, "We each lift one side with all our might. Do you...
