Ye Wenyan smiled.
The silver note refers to the silver note from Yanhua Palace.
That was the money that Shi Liyuan gave to Ye Chulian to change his words, and Ye Chulian had asserted at the time that the banknote would definitely be stolen.
The Second Lady's jealousy and hatred towards Qiao Shuyuan'er had been going on for many years, and she had become accustomed to suppressing Qiao Shuyuan'er. Although Ye Chulian lived in her own courtyard, she was born to Liu, so in the eyes of the Second Lady, she was as hateful as Liu.
They knew that something bad would happen to the banknotes sooner or later, but they didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Ye Wenyan nodded at Ye Chulian and even gave her an encouraging look. This scene happened to be seen by Ye Feizhou. As one of the insiders, he naturally understood what Ye Chulian's silent "silver note" meant.
He looked at Mrs. Xiao, then at Old Madam Xiao, and silently lowered his head, indicating that he would never interfere in this matter.
Ye Chulian was encouraged and stood up suddenly. She pulled over Sui Xi who had just come to deliver the message. The two of them knelt directly in the middle of the room, kowtowed to the old lady properly, and then kowtowed to Ye Wenyan.
This stunned Old Madam Ye, and everyone in the room was stunned too. Old Madam Xiao and Xiao Shubai forgot to cry anymore, and just listened to Ye Chulian kneeling there and saying in a voice that was almost shouting: "Grandma, something terrible has happened, a large banknote was lost in your granddaughter's room!"
The old lady never expected Ye Chulian to say such a thing, and she couldn't help but become interested: "How big is the big amount?"
Ye Chulian replied: "One million taels!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole family shuddered.
It's not that they are ignorant and think that one million taels is a large sum. No one could have imagined that Ye Chulian, a concubine's daughter, would have so much silver. Where did this silver come from?
Old Madam Ye also frowned and immediately scolded Ye Chulian: "Nonsense! Why are you making a fuss at this critical moment? One million taels? Even if you say it's ten thousand taels, I won't believe that you have so much silver. Get up quickly and sit aside, don't join in the fun." After saying that, she glared at Liu, who was so scared that she quickly lowered her head.
But Ye Chulian couldn't get up, she just knelt there, her voice still loud and clear: "It is one million taels, that is the banknote that Fourth Sister temporarily left with me, and it was agreed that it would be taken away today. Who would have thought that just now the maid in the yard came to report that the banknote was stolen. My granddaughter was really anxious and felt guilty, so I kowtowed to Fourth Sister just now. Please, grandmother, help me find it for me."
The family members did not find it strange at this time. If the banknotes belonged to Ye Wenyan, then it was possible. After all, Ye Wenyan was very capable and had some connections with many important people. Moreover, her courtyard had many rewards, and there were a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. It was not surprising that she could take out a banknote of one million taels, and it was not surprising that she could temporarily put it in the hands of the fifth sister who had made good friends recently.
Then there is only one question left: who stole the banknotes?
Ye Chulian pulled Sui Xi who was kneeling beside her, and Sui Xi immediately said, "Madam, my young lady just saw the fourth young lady coming here to pay respects, so she asked me to go back to the house to get the banknote and return it to the fourth young lady. But who would have thought that when I went to get the banknote, I found that it was gone. At that time, I was anxious, and asked people in the house and the yard if they had seen it. As a result, I heard a sister say that she had given the banknote to the second lady, and asked me not to look for it anymore."
Xiao Shubai's mind suddenly exploded, and he immediately remembered the banknote that Chuyunyuan's informant handed over this morning.
Because she knew her mother had arrived, she didn't bother to check the denomination of the money and hurriedly put it in her sleeve pocket and came here.
Could it be that the banknote he was talking about was worth one million taels?
Of course, the exact amount of money is no longer important. What is important is that the banknote actually belongs to Ye Wenyan. How could such a thing happen?
"Alas." Suddenly, a sigh was heard. People looked in the direction of the sound and found that the person who sighed was Ye Wenyan. Ye Wenyan sighed and said, "Just now we were talking about how the Xiao family didn't know how to educate their daughter and actually resorted to some despicable means. It turns out that our second wife not only knows how to drug, but can also instigate servants to steal things? This is really a case of no matter how hard you try to guard against a thief in your home. Can people still live in this general's mansion in the future? Can we still sleep at night? Could it be that all the servants in the house are thieves raised by the second wife?"
As she spoke, she looked at Madam Xiao again, "Is this how your Xiao family raises their daughter?"
The words were returned intact, leaving Old Madam Xiao dumbfounded.
Ye Qingmei leaned over and asked Ye Wenyan in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Why are you always speaking for your second uncle today? Do you want that concubine to come in?"
Ye Wenyan smiled and whispered back, "Whether or not she can enter the house is the Second House's business, and has nothing to do with us. Similarly, whether or not she can enter the house is also the Second House's business, and we can't control it even if we want to. Anyway, the current Second Aunt is not good, so why not try another one, and maybe we can find some new breakthroughs."
Ye Qingmei was puzzled, "What new breakthrough?"
Ye Wenyan's eyes were covered with a layer of frost, "That is to say, maybe we can get some unknown secrets out of it."
Madam Ye had already begun questioning Xiao Shubai, "Did you take the silver from the fifth girl's room?"
Xiao Shubai's face became increasingly ugly.
"Tell me! Did you take someone's money?"
"I didn't take it!" Xiao Shubai was also anxious. "I did receive a banknote. The servants of Chuyunyuan found that something was wrong with the banknote. After all, the amount of one million was too high. They thought there was something wrong with it, so they gave it to me. Originally, I wanted to ask the fifth lady about this matter, but there was something going on here, so I was delayed."
She was not vague, and she knew that it was better to have less trouble than more. Besides, the banknote belonged to Ye Wenyan, so she couldn't keep it even if she wanted to.
So he said generously: "The banknote is here with me. Since you said it belongs to the fourth lady, just return it."
She reached into her sleeve to take out the banknote, but after searching again and again, she found that the banknote was not in her sleeve.
Xiao Shubai was so anxious that he broke out in a sweat. He no longer cared about his image and simply turned over his sleeves to look for it.
Unfortunately, it was gone. The banknote that she had clearly put in her sleeve pocket disappeared as if it had wings.
Ye Chulian waited for a while and saw no further response, so she asked, "Mother, where is the banknote? If it is really with me, please return it to my fourth sister. The banknote is from Yanhua Palace, and it has the seal of the Emperor on it. It is no joke."
Xiao Shubai sat down on the ground, his whole body paralyzed.
Silver notes from Yanhua Palace? How could this happen?
Madam Xiao was also panicking, and blurted out, "Nonsense! How could there be silver notes from Yanhua Palace? What do you think Yanhua Palace is? How could silver notes from Yanhua Palace, which can issue decrees from heaven, end up in your hands? Are you crazy, Ye family?"
The more she spoke, the more she felt that the Ye family was crazy. People even stood up and said, "I want to go back. The Ye family is just a bunch of crazy people. I don't talk to crazy people."
Madam Xiao was about to leave when she was stopped by Madam Ye. "Wait! Mother-in-law, if you wanted to leave before, no one would stop you, but now you can't leave. Something has happened, and it's a serious matter. You can't leave until the matter is investigated clearly."
Ye Jingsheng heard this and added: "If mother-in-law must leave, then please take your daughter with her. I will write a divorce letter now, and the Ye family will divorce Xiao, and the two families will have no connection from now on. As for her stealing the banknotes from Yanhua Palace, please let the Xiao family take responsibility and don't cause trouble for my Ye family."
"What do you mean by that?" Madam Xiao shook off Madam Ye's hand that was trying to stop her. "Are you really crazy? Let me remind you again, that is Yanhua Palace, the residence of that immortal. How could the immortal's banknotes be in the mortal world? You Ye family should make up a lie that is more convincing. How can anyone believe such a lie?"
"Then see if anyone believes it!" Ye Jingsheng felt very happy and even wanted to bow to Ye Wenyan.
This niece's performance today was really great, and her position was so clear. She simply handed him a pillow when he dozed off, and brought him tea when he was thirsty! If the situation continued to develop like this, would he not even need to marry a co-wife, and could directly divorce Xiao Shubai and marry Xue Qiao as his principal wife?
Ye Jingsheng was so excited that he kept rubbing his hands, and he didn't mind telling Madam Xiao about the relationship between the Ye family and Yanhua Palace.
So he talked about how Lian Shi and Yun Chen had come to support Ye Wenyan several times, and also mentioned that Ye Wenyan was appointed by the Emperor to treat the new emperor's throat.
He was very proud when he talked about this matter - "Mother-in-law has lived for most of her life, but has she ever heard the emperor speak in person? Has the emperor ever called your name? Definitely not, not to mention you, even among the royal family, there are very few who have. But our fourth daughter is different, she has been called by the emperor. On the day when the late emperor passed away, all the court officials heard the emperor shout loudly - please ask the fourth daughter of the Ye family to heal the seventh prince!"
When he said this, he actually imitated the tone of voice that Master Liyuan used that day. For a moment, he seemed to be in the present moment, bringing everyone present back to the night of the second day of the twelfth lunar month.
Then he asked Madam Xiao, "Does mother-in-law think it's strange that the banknotes from Yanhua Palace appeared in our house?"
Madam Xiao wanted to say something, but was pulled back by Xiao Shubai.
She lowered her head to look at her daughter and saw Xiao Shubai shaking his head at her.
Old Madam Xiao swayed and plopped back into her chair.
Seeing her daughter like this, she couldn't escape this matter. But... but that was the Emperor! Could he really be with the Ye family... She looked at Ye Wenyan again, and suddenly remembered the palace banquet on New Year's Eve. The fourth girl of the Ye family performed a fire dance, and the fire phoenix soared into the sky.
Maybe it was because he was really different that her daughter was so afraid of him.
"Shubai, if you really took the banknotes, return them. After all, we are still a family. Jingsheng only married a concubine, and you are still the fourth lady's second aunt. As long as you return the banknotes and admit your mistakes, I believe the fourth lady will not be too bothered by you."
Ye Jingsheng was a little disappointed, but relieved at the same time.
The matter of the co-wife is finally settled!
