The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 42 You actually said that Miss Ye Si was gentle

This was the second time Yun Chen had seen Ye Wenyan. The last time he saw her was when the late emperor had passed away. Ye Wenyan had just returned from Prince Su's Mansion. Her face was pale and she reeked of blood, which left a deep impression on him.

He originally thought that after a few days of recuperation, the condition would be more or less better, but he didn't expect that the girl's face was still as pale as a ghost. This made him wonder if Ye Wenyan was abused in the general's mansion.

He walked towards Ye Wenyan and bowed, "My name is Yunchen, nice to meet the Fourth Miss Ye."

Behind him, Lin'an Prefecture Prefect Chi Hongfang also came over, thinking about looking at Yunchen, then looking at Ye Wenyan, and then imitated Yunchen to greet Ye Wenyan: "Lin'an Prefecture Prefect Chi Hongfang, meet the fourth Miss Ye." Old Madam Ye was a little confused. If Yunchen was polite to Ye Wenyan, it might be because Yunchen liked Ye Wenyan, as she had thought before. But the prefect of Lin'an was a third-rank official, why was he joining in the fun? Even when the old man was there, I never heard of the prefect coming to greet Ye Wenyan.

What is all this going on?

Ye Wenyan was also a little confused. It was okay for Yunchen, he must have been doing it for Shi Liyuan's sake. But Mr. Prefect, are you imitating Yunchen too obviously?

"My Lords, please stop being so polite. I am just a humble servant and I am not worthy of your courtesy." After saying this, she also leaned down and said, "Your servant Ye Wenyan greets the Lord Supervisor and the Lord Prefect."

Yun Chen turned sideways and let her gift pass. Chi Hongfang originally thought it was okay for Ye Wenyan to return the gift, but Yun Chen actually dodged the gift, so he couldn't bear it alone, so he had to dodge as well.

Ye Wenyan was helpless and didn't want to dwell on this matter any longer, so he took the initiative to ask, "Why did the prefect come here in person?"

After hearing her question, Chi Hongfang said, "It's like this. The maid in the mansion came to report that someone was wearing a red string during the late emperor's funeral. This is a big deal. I must go there in person to see who is so bold and disrespectful to the royal family."

The words were spoken loudly, and the old lady and Xiao heard them clearly. Xiao then realized that the government was not coming for Ye Hongzhuang, and this matter had nothing to do with immersing in a pig cage.

She couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and carefully straightened her clothes, then asked Jinxiu: "Was I too excited just now, and a little inappropriate? What if so many outsiders were watching and it got out? Will my reputation still be there?"

Jinxiu said quickly, "Madam, don't worry. I will go get some silver and keep it ready. I will quietly send it out when the officials leave to silence them."

Xiao nodded repeatedly, "Okay, go quickly and get more. I'm now the mistress of a general's mansion, and I can't lose face." Jinxiu stepped back carefully and hurried to the backyard to get the silver.

The old lady then asked, "Who is wearing the red string?" Then she added in confusion, "It shouldn't be like this! We also have a big funeral in our family, and everyone in the mansion has been wearing plain clothes for more than a month. It's impossible for someone to do such a thing."

After saying that, he looked at Zhuier again and asked angrily, "Tell me! Who is wearing the red string? And why did you go to report it to the police?"

Zhuier has been following Ye Wenyan these days and has become much braver. Plus, she was not a gentle girl to begin with, so after being influenced by Ye Wenyan, she is now so brave that she almost dares to go up to the roof and tear off the tiles.

The old lady asked her loudly, and she answered loudly: "Of course it couldn't be someone from our house, but an outsider from our house! As for why I went to report to the authorities, it was because that outsider had nothing better to do than to go and cause trouble for my young lady early in the morning!"

As soon as these words came out, Yun Chen immediately became angry: "Huh? You want to cause trouble for the Fourth Young Lady? Who has the guts to do that?"

The old lady and Xiao Shi shuddered collectively. How could it be considered bold to cause trouble to Ye Wenyan? Was this said to the person wearing the red string, or to the two of them?

Ye Feiyu, who had been silent, spoke up at this moment, and asked in his usual gentle voice: "Yan'er, who bullied you again?"

Yun Chen then grasped another key point: "Again? Master, do you mean that the fourth young lady is often bullied by the people in the mansion?"

Ye Feiyu didn't say anything, but just walked over and reached out to rub Ye Wenyan's head.

This attitude was very clear. Yun Chen felt that he had a reason to turn hostile, so he asked loudly at that time: "Excuse me, who bullied the fourth young lady? The fourth young lady is gentle and treats people sincerely. She can be regarded as a model of women in the world. How could anyone be willing to bully her? I believe that her family members would never do such a wicked thing. It must be some evil-minded servant who bullied the master. Fourth young lady, please tell me, and I will definitely redeem this grievance for you!"

When these words came out, even the prefect Chi who was standing next to him couldn't stand it anymore. He silently covered his face, thinking, "Master Yun, why are you lying with your eyes open?" It's true that you treat people sincerely, but you said that the fourth young lady of the Ye family has a gentle personality? Who would believe this?

Don't you know what kind of personality Miss Ye Si has? Don't the officials and people of Lin'an know? Even the royal family knows, right? She is a role model for women in the world. If all women in the world were like her, men would have a hard time living.

Lord Yun, if you say that, I may not be able to respond!

The old lady and Mrs. Xiao couldn't stand it anymore. This was a roundabout way of calling them slaves, and immoral slaves at that.

But they couldn't accept this, because accepting it would be the same as admitting it. Everyone in Northern Qi knew what the Imperial Observatory was, and only a fool would choose to go against it. So they had to accept this insult, knowing that they were being insulted, but they still had to put on a smile and say to him, "Yes, it must be some blind servant who made you, Lord Yun, angry. I promise you that I will clean it up and never let this happen again."

This was said by the old lady. She had already determined that Yunchen must have fallen in love with Ye Wenyan. After all, Ye Wenyan had been hailed as the most beautiful woman in Lin'an since she was ten years old. She was indeed beautiful, so it was not impossible for Yunchen to fall in love with her.

She thought so in her heart and glared at Xiao again, meaning, why is the daughter you gave birth to not as pretty as Ye Wenyan?

Xiao didn't understand what this cutting meant, and thought the old lady was blaming her for her loss of composure just now, so she lowered her head in silence.

Yun Chen glanced at the old lady and said, "Of course I believe in you, but the future is a matter for the future. Let's just talk about the present. Who can tell me who is so bored that he wants to cause trouble for the fourth young lady?"

After he finished speaking, he gave a wink to Chi Fuyin, who cleared his throat twice, knowing that it was his turn to take the stage.

So he walked a few steps to the middle of the courtyard and said, "The maidservant beside the fourth young lady reported to the government that there was a woman with a red string tied around her neck. I wonder if the person who is causing trouble for the fourth young lady is that person."

The old lady was stunned. Old woman? No way, how could the old woman around her have a red string tied around her neck?

Xiao suddenly thought of something.

When I came out of Fuluyuan before, I heard Binglan, the maid beside Hongzhuang, say that Hongzhuang went to find Ye Wenyan early in the morning, and was accompanied by Nanny Cui.

She was anxious to see her daughter and wanted to ask why she went to find Ye Wenyan, but before she could see him, she heard from the servant in the front yard that Zhuier had brought a group of officials to arrest someone. She thought that Ye Wenyan was going to bring up the pig cage again, and she got angry with Mu.

But at this moment she was already very sure that these people from the government were not targeting her daughter at all, but rather the Nanny Cui in the palace.

Xiao found this interesting. Although she firmly supported the Empress Dowager Li and the Sixth Prince, she was still a mother after all. When it came to her daughter's pregnancy, neither the Su Palace nor the Empress Dowager Li were doing what she wanted. She didn't say it openly, but secretly scolded the mother and son several times behind closed doors.

How could she swallow the fact that her daughter, whom she had raised with great effort, was abused by that mother and son?

So she spoke, to Zhuier: "I wonder if Zhuier is going to report to the authorities and is going to sue that maid surnamed Cui?"

Zhuier glanced at Ye Wenyan, and when she saw her master nodded, she replied, "To answer the second lady, it was that Madam Cui."

Xiao nodded, and then said to Chi Fuyin: "To be honest, that person was sent by the Empress Dowager in the palace, and she is staying in our house temporarily. We didn't know she dared to wear a red string, and we didn't know she actually went to the fourth lady to cause trouble so early in the morning. Alas, but what can we do? After all, she is someone in the palace and is under the Empress Dowager's command. We dare not say anything or intervene."

Prefect Chi snorted coldly, "Since the Ye family dare not intervene, then I will take care of it. Otherwise, my trip here will be in vain." After that, he turned to the old lady and said, "Do you want the servants to hand over that nanny, or do you want me to send the officers to rush in and arrest her?"

The old lady wanted to say that of course we were the ones who invited the people out, but then a group of officers rushed into the mansion to arrest them. Does the First-Rank General's Mansion still have any shame?

But Xiao rushed to take over the conversation and immediately said, "Master, please arrest her! We really don't dare to touch that maid."

The old lady understood that this was to distance herself from the matter. If Empress Dowager Li asked about it in the future, it was the government that rushed in to arrest the person, and it had nothing to do with the Ye family. Even if Empress Dowager Li wanted to settle the score, it would not be the Ye family's fault.

He couldn't help but look at Xiao with approval and was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

Of course, Prefect Chi understood what the Ye family was planning, but he didn't care. Since he had come here today, he was already prepared to turn against Empress Dowager Li. Was this the only step left?

So he waved his hand and said, "Catch him!" The officers entered the mansion, and the others waited in the front yard.

The old lady stood there for a while, feeling that something was not right about what happened today. After thinking about it, she finally thought of Yun Chen.

So he thought about it and asked, "I wonder what Lord Yun came to visit with Prefect Chi?"
