After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy
Chapter 32 Assassination
How could the old lady not know what these people were thinking? Although on the surface, they were all happily complimenting her and saying nice things to her, who wouldn't be thinking of making fun of the Marquis' Mansion for what happened today? The old lady was furious, but her face was still full of smiles and joy.
Lord Ye was pulling Ye Shuwen to introduce him to Shen Mingxiu.
"Your Highness, Shuwen will be dismissed this year, and I don't know if there will be a good outcome."
Shen Mingxiu smiled kindly, "The Marquis' Mansion is truly full of talented people. I wish Young Master Ye success in the imperial examinations in advance."
Ye Shuwen saluted flattered, his eyes filled with joy and pride, "Thank you for your blessing, Your Highness. I will do my best."
The people around looked at him with some envy.
The Marquis' Mansion already has a good young man, Ye Yanzhi. If he can achieve good results in this year's imperial examination and be given an important position, the Marquis' Mansion will have hope in the future. With the favor of the Fourth Prince, he also has a future. Although the Fourth Prince has no big relationship with that position, he will be conferred a prince anyway. No matter which prince ascends the throne in the future, he will be given some face.
"The Holy Spirit orally."
Someone suddenly came to the palace.
Both the old lady and the marquis were startled.
There was confusion in his eyes.
She was just a fourth-rank official, and she celebrated her birthday, but she even disturbed the emperor?
Everyone was in an uproar. This Marquis' Mansion was so powerful. Who had won the emperor's favor? It seemed that the Marquis' Mansion was really going to be promoted.
Shen Mingxiu was also completely confused. His father should have long forgotten about this declining Marquisate. What happened today?
"Eunuch Feng, what's going on, Father?"
"This old servant greets His Highness the Fourth Prince. His Highness is here too." Eunuch Feng said with a smile.
Shen Mingxiu smiled and said, "Come here and have a drink."
Eunuch Feng's sharp eyes swept across the room, and his voice was a little cold, "It's quite lively today."
"Ye Shuwen accepted the order."
Ye Shuwen? Who is Ye Shuwen? Many people were confused. Didn't the emperor send people to the Marquis' Mansion to celebrate Old Madam Ye's birthday? What happened to Ye Shuwen?
Ye Shuwen was also confused. He stood beside Lord Ye with a dazed look on his face. His mind was blank and he didn't hear his own name at all.
Lord Ye quickly pushed Ye Shuwen out, pulled him to kneel down, and everyone followed suit.
"Commoner, commoner, Ye Shuwen, accept the order."
Ye Shuwen was shaking all over, feeling a little scared, a little expectant, and a little excited. He didn't know why the emperor's order was directed to him. Could it be that the emperor had heard about his talent from somewhere and wanted to use him?
When Ye Shuwen thought of this possibility, his fair face flushed with excitement.
"The Emperor has decreed that Ye Shuwen has failed in moral conduct, has a perverse temperament, and has offended the imperial family. His son is hereby disqualified from participating in the imperial examinations and is prohibited from taking them again for ten years. This is decreed."
After Eunuch Feng finished speaking, there was complete silence, so deep that you could hear a pin drop.
Ye Shuwen had long lost the excitement and fantasy he had just had. His face was pale and gray, and he looked like he was frozen.
"Lord Ye, the emperor's oral order has been delivered. Your Highness, I will take my leave now."
"Farewell, Eunuch Feng."
"Impossible, how is it possible? Why would His Majesty deprive me of the qualification to take the exam!" Ye Shuwen lowered his head, his eyes wide open like a madman, and kept repeating it.
Being able to take part in the imperial examination was his greatest hope. How could he not take it? He was so talented and had a bright future in the government. If he couldn't even take the exam, his life would be over! He was finished!
He held Marquis Ye tightly, his voice hoarse, "Uncle Ye, why? Please ask the emperor for me why he deprived me of my qualifications. I didn't do anything. Why?"
Lord Ye was also frightened by this.
The guests present all looked at Lord Ye with strange eyes. They had originally thought that the Marquisate was going to rise, but it seemed that was not the case. Wasn't it said that Ye Shuwen came from out of town to take the imperial examination, nor was he from Kyoto. How could he have offended the emperor after only a few days?
Lord Ye is also in a miserable situation. The Qingyuan Marquisate is probably also on the emperor's radar.
"Your Highness, could you please help me? Shuwen is just a candidate from another place who came to Beijing to take part in the imperial examination. Is there any misunderstanding? How did he offend His Majesty?" Lord Ye was also extremely confused and scared.
Shen Mingxiu frowned, his eyes flashing with annoyance, but with a soothing look on his face, "Don't worry, Lord Ye, I will help investigate."
Shen Mingxiu smiled and said, "It's a great day, don't let it affect you. Today is the old lady's sixtieth birthday, and it's just a small accident."
"Yes, Your Highness is right. It was a small accident that disturbed everyone's enjoyment of the meal. I will drink a glass of wine as a punishment, haha."
Everyone laughed and the atmosphere became lively again. However, everyone knew in their hearts that the Qingyuan Marquisate might be in trouble and it would be better to stay away from it in the future. It was not a good sign that their name was mentioned by the emperor. Even if Ye Shuwen was only a distant relative, he was still a relative of the Marquisate. The Marquisate was also unlucky. It was criticized by the emperor himself for its misconduct and its life was over.
Everyone was eating, drinking, and talking in low voices.
Prince Kang, however, was like a club, his face full of gloating. "Lord Ye, it's really unfortunate that your family has such a scum. Why didn't you investigate before letting him in? Now this has ruined the entire mansion. Tsk tsk, how pitiful."
Lord Ye was so angry that his teeth itched. Scum? How could I defeat you? You really have no self-awareness at all.
"Hey, Ye Wen, how did you offend the emperor? Or did you offend some important figure and file a complaint with the emperor?"
"You look so gentle and polite, but you are actually quite courageous.
Boy, why don't you just follow me, the prince? Why don't you take that lousy exam? You seem pretty brave, and I'll protect you!"
Ye Shuwen lowered his head timidly and with a look of resentment on his face, not daring to say anything. Lord Ye also kept silent, but he knew the reason in his heart.
Didn’t Ye Shuwen just offend the Prince of Zhuang not long ago? He thought that since he had paid the money and Shuwen had been beaten, the matter would be over. He didn’t expect that Shen Junchen was so untrustworthy and even went to His Majesty to complain!
How could Ye Shuwen not think of what Lord Ye could think of? He knew who did it, and he wanted to eat that person alive, but he was powerless. He was like a grass, an ant, and could be crushed to death with just a move of his feet.
"I'm talking, why don't you say a word?" Prince Kang turned around and looked at Ye Shuwen unhappily, and threw the wine glass in his hand at Ye Shuwen.
Ye Shuwen flinched at the blow and took a step back, wishing he could curl up and not be seen by anyone. He couldn't afford to offend these powerful people, and this Prince Kang was even more untouchable. If he did, he might even lose his life.
When Prince Kang saw Ye Shuwen's useless appearance, he became furious. He stood up suddenly, angrily flicked his sleeves, and threw the wine pot on the table away. A servant who was carrying two plates of food happened to walk to Prince Kang, and the two plates of food in the servant's hands were thrown heavily at Prince Kang.
"That bastard did it. Doesn't he want to live?" Prince Kang turned his head angrily, and his anger instantly turned into horror.
The young servant in coarse cloth and shorts suddenly had a dagger in his hand. With boundless hatred in his eyes, he stabbed at him with the dagger.
