Starting from the world of Joy of Life

Chapter 83 Lao Deng, I have tolerated you for a long time!
The next day
"Oh!"

He pulled the last cavalryman off his horse and smashed his head with one punch.

Ye Zheng shook off the blood stains on his hands.

There were corpses lying all around, and blood was flowing in streams, meandering away into the distance.

Fortunately, the Northern Qi Princess's team was at the end, otherwise seeing this would scare the future Crown Prince's wife.

"I really should ask the Second Prince for advice on how he disciplined these people to fight to the death like this." He sighed.

"Money is poured into these people's pockets like water, but they can't afford such loyal soldiers. Do they rely on deception?" Fan Xian said rudely, feeling really annoyed.

So many people attacked and killed the envoys, and there was another memorial.

The key is how to write it and whether to mention Li Chengze.

The delegation stayed for several days. The weapons and clothes of the assassins and cavalrymen, and items on their bodies, such as jade pendants and purses, as well as birthmarks on the corpses and other characteristics and marks were all recorded and collected in detail thanks to Yan Bingyun and the people in the Inspection Institute.

……

Another decade

The delegation finally returned to Beijing safely, how smooth it was.

In front of the city gate, the Ministry of Rites and the Honglu Temple welcomed him with music and dance.

Although Ye Zheng did not hold an official position, it was not an option for him to go home right away. According to the rules, he had to go to the palace to report the details of his journey to Lao Deng, and it would be best if he could also submit a memorial.

The problem is coming again.

In the past, he entered the Imperial Study without any rank because he was summoned by Lao Deng. Now, he didn't even have a badge, so he couldn't enter the Imperial Study at will, so he had to pass through the gates one by one.

"Your Majesty, I would like to report my work (not a modern word)." Ye Zheng bowed deeply and said.

"Thank you for your hard work. Come, take a seat."

Ye Zheng, "..."

In the past, he would never sit down when there were banquets.

Now if you don't have the talent, it would be a violation of etiquette to sit down.

After hearing this, the censor wanted to impeach him again.

What’s important is that not only was he impeached, but his father was also impeached for failing to educate his son properly.

"Your Majesty, according to etiquette, I will not sit down." Ye Zheng bowed.

Emperor Qing flipped through the memorial handed to him by Ye Zheng, and without even looking up, he said, "You mean I disregarded etiquette."

Lao Deng, I have tolerated you for a long time!
I…

Take a seat!
"Have you paid a visit to Grand Master Ku He?" Emperor Qing asked.

According to Ye Zheng's speculation, it wasn't because Ku He leaked the news.

Ku He might not have given his uncle much face, but he must have taken into account the secret that Sean told him, so when he and his uncle were leaving that day, he told Ku He many times that what happened that day should have been treated as if nothing had happened.

It was probably because Ku He fulfilled his promise and announced that he would accept two more disciples, which led Emperor Qing to make this speculation now.

"Your Majesty, no." Ye Zheng denied it flatly, his expression calm and normal.

"Your Ye family is prosperous in military affairs. Ku He announced that he would accept your second sister as his last disciple." Emperor Qing laughed heartily.

In fact, according to his idea, after Ye Zheng came back, he would give him the position of deputy commander of the Kyoto garrison. The meaning was obvious. He wanted him to slowly take over the Kyoto garrison. After he got married, he could find a suitable opportunity to send Ye back to Dingzhou.

Not all members of the Ye family can return to Dingzhou, some must stay behind.

When Ye Zheng returned, he arranged a marriage between Ye Ling'er and the second brother, thus following the previous plan.

As for whether Ye Zheng understood...

Ye Chong should let me know.

It was no wonder that he was suspicious in this situation. He had just decided to grant the marriage the day before, and the next day Ku He announced that he would accept Ye Ling'er as his disciple. It was unbelievable!
Now, it is not easy to arrange for Ye Zheng immediately.

Let’s leave it alone for now and see how the Crown Prince and the Second Brother react.

"I heard about this on the way back to Beijing. I wanted to confirm it with my father, mother and second sister after returning home, but I didn't expect to get confirmation from Your Majesty. It means that Daqing's military fortune will prosper." Ye Zheng's response was mediocre.

Emperor Qing nodded gently, "Okay, it's nothing, I haven't seen you for a long time, I want to hear you talk."

"I miss you so much. You have been away from home for so long. I miss you so much. Come back."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ye Zheng decisively bowed and ran away.

He did have things to take care of when he got home.

……

Xining Lane, Mansion
"Your Highness, it has been confirmed that the Inspection Bureau has detained Xie Bian."

The swordsman who used to accompany Li Chengze has now been replaced by the swordsman Fan Wujiu.

Li Chengze bit the nail of his thumb, his face slightly nervous, "Go, go check again, what's going on with him?"

Ever since Xie Bian wrote to say that he had found Fan Xian's delegation, but no news had been received, he began to worry.

He had originally planned to have Fan Xian's delegation collide with his elder brother's delegation returning to Beijing. However, Fan Xian's delegation was delayed for several days for unknown reasons, which made him feel even more uneasy.

Heard the news today...

I really can't sit still!

Attacking the diplomatic envoys is a crime of treason!
If something happens, will he be asked to go back to his fiefdom?

Ye Mansion, Flower Hall

"Brother, how can you be so partial? Fan Sizhe is Zheng'er's brother-in-law in name only, and he and Fan Ruoruo are not born of the same mother. How can his relationship be compared with Ling'er and Zheng'er's?"

A middle-aged man in fancy clothes, with a stout figure and dark blue eyes, complained to Ye Zhong who was sitting in the main seat.

This man's name is Ye Chi, and he is considered to be Ye Zheng's uncle. He is younger than Ye Zhong.

In fact, Ye Zhong should be called "Master".
"Is it a normal business to force people to sign into a brothel?" Ye Chong asked with a serious expression.

"Uncle, how can it be a brothel? Baoyue Tower is an elegant place. What's more, the woman was originally a prostitute, and Baoyue Tower signed a contract with her. There was no coercion." A young man who looked like Ye Chi explained.

It was probably because Ye Zhong's eyes were sharper, and under the pressure of his gaze, Ye Ling was knotted in several places.

"Whether it is a brothel or not is not up to you to decide." Just then, Ye Zheng's voice came as he stepped briskly into the flower hall.

"Zheng'er, have you reported on your work?" Ye Chong asked in surprise.

"Zheng'er is so arrogant. Is he relying on his status as the main branch to suppress us branches at will?" Ye Chi knew that the person was up to no good just by hearing the tone of the words, so he simply spoke to him in a friendly tone.

After all, he is the elder.

Ye Zheng bowed to his father, looked at Ye Chi, and smiled, "My uncle is right. If you are not convinced, you can split the family. If you are still not convinced, you can ask the elders to come and we can have a debate."

"You are wrong about one thing. There is no you here, only you."

"Oh!"

Ye Chi slammed the table and stood up, his finger pointing at Ye Zheng trembling, "Are you crazy? I am your uncle, your elder! How dare you talk back to your elders? You, you, you, I will definitely report you! Let's see how you can be an official!"

"My uncle is crazy. Our Daqing is a country founded on military power. If I cannot be a civil servant, I can join the border army." Ye Zheng said without giving in.

"Very well, then call the elders of the clan and let them see what kind of disobedient and unfilial person has appeared in the clan. I think you were too easy on yourself when you were an official before, so you got a bad temper and asked His Majesty to dismiss you from office, but you still don't reflect on your mistakes. Do you think you have the right to interfere in the affairs of your brothers and elders?" Ye Chi seemed like a person from Northern Qi, so this set of tactics was quite decent.

Ye Zhengshi was too lazy to argue with him, so he took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve and handed them to his father. "Inside, there is the information about Baoyue Tower's registration in Kyoto Prefecture, the information about the prostitutes of Baoyue Tower registered in Kyoto Prefecture, and the confessions of customers who have been to Baoyue Tower."

"Doing business in a brothel is against the clan rules. I think Ye Ling should be expelled from the family tree. Ye Chi is his father, but he doesn't want to teach him to walk the right path. Instead, he blames him and scolds him. He can also be expelled from the family tree."
