Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

The carriage left the palace and went all the way out of the city to the horse market.

At this time, the horse market is still as lively as ever.

Even though Du Min was not there, Ye Chen still could not see any signs of chaos.

"It seems that Du Min had already made arrangements when he left Ma City."

Ye Chen couldn't help but nodded, thinking that he had not misjudged the person. Du Min's ability was more than enough to be a minister in the Ministry of Revenue.

But when the carriage just drove into the horse market, Ye Chen suddenly heard a quarrel coming from not far away.

He couldn't help but lift the curtain of the car to look outside, and immediately saw a group of people rushing forward.

These people were all dressed in green, holding maces in their hands, and looked very aggressive.

"Qiu'er, come with me to see what happened."

After Ye Chen got off the carriage, he was quite curious about the scene and reached out to pull Shen Qiu's arm.

"Yes, Master."

Shen Qiu nodded, deliberately took a step to the left, distanced himself from Ye Chen, and his eyes became a little sharp.

Every time Shen Qiu followed Ye Chen out, Ye Chen would always approach her intentionally or unintentionally.

This really made her feel helpless. It was only Ye Chen's fault. If it was any other man, she would have stabbed him with a sword long ago.

"Hey, cough, cough."

Unable to pull Shen Qiu's arm, Ye Chen coughed twice, then said seriously: "Qiu'er, you have to come to me. There are all kinds of people here. You are too far away from me. If something dangerous happens, how can you protect me?"

Hearing this, Shen Qiu pursed her lips. She felt that what Ye Chen said made sense, but she always felt that Ye Chen had ulterior motives. However, out of duty, she finally took two steps towards Ye Chen and walked side by side with him.

When the two walked together, the man's every move was full of dominance, while the woman was cold and detached, like a fairy descended from the earth. The two were like a golden boy and a jade girl, and were indescribably well-matched.

When Ye Chen got closer to the crowd, the quarrel he heard became clearer.

Some of the voices sounded familiar to Ye Chen.

"Isn't this Chen Tao?"

Ye Chen was a little surprised to see that Chen Tao had been surrounded by people, and next to him was the lame groom he had seen last time.

Among them, the driver was already injured and was pressing the wound on his head with his hand, his head covered in blood.

Chen Tao and the coachman were protecting a carriage, and the people surrounding them all had obvious bad intentions. The leader of these people was a scholar who wore a tall crown and looked very gentle.

"Ms. Lin, my master has given you a chance, don't refuse a toast and then drink a penalty!"

"If you know what's good for you, come with me to the government office. Once my young master is released, I won't make things difficult for you!"

The scholar Lu Jiu spoke in a low voice, and even bowed while speaking, but his tone was full of arrogance and domineering.

"Bullshit, Mr. Lu, you want my daughter from the Marquisate to go to the yamen and grovel and apologize to a Left Vice Minister? And you want us to admit our mistakes? Do you really think my Jing'an Marquisate is easy to bully?!"

Chen Tao was extremely sad and angry. He held a big axe in his hand, his hair and beard were standing on end, his eyes were red, and he was obviously very angry.

"Humph! You really won't cry until you see the coffin!"

Lu Jiu's face turned cold and he quickly revealed a sneer.

"In that case, you can't blame me."

"Everyone, come at me! Don't hurt the young lady from the Marquis' Mansion. Beat the others hard until they die. And the warhorse! Break its legs!"

“I let them sell it!”

Lu Jiu's face suddenly turned ferocious, his tone filled with murderous intent and ferocity: "Mr. Qin, I will make you understand today that in this part of the capital, there are some people you cannot afford to mess with!"

At his command, more than twenty of his lackeys came forward with maces in hand.

Seeing this, Chen Tao and others looked slightly gloomy.

There were only two of them, him and the driver, and they were clearly at a disadvantage, and were about to be beaten.

Seeing this, Ye Chen's face darkened and he was about to stand up.

"stop!"

A female voice suddenly came from the carriage.

Ye Chen immediately looked towards the place where the female voice came from.

I saw that the curtain of the carriage had been opened, and a figure of medium stature, wearing a lavender brocade dress, stood out.

The figure wore a veil that covered her face, but the seductive curves outlined by the purple brocade dress alone looked so beautiful that it was enough to make one's blood boil.

"The Jing'an Marquisate has existed for four generations since Dayu founded the country. Uncle Chen and his men were once warriors who fought for Dayu against foreign enemies. How dare you be so presumptuous?"

The young lady from the Marquis's Mansion was extremely angry, and her delicate body kept rising and falling, which was very pleasing to the eye.

However, upon hearing this, Lu Jiu actually laughed.

"What warriors? They're just two stinking soldiers. Fight them! If they kill you, it's my responsibility!"

Following Lu Jiu's words, his lackeys continued to move forward, but had no intention of stopping.

Qin Man's pretty face suddenly turned pale. This was the first time she had encountered such a thing, and she couldn't help but feel frightened and scared.

But at this moment.

"Whoever dares to touch a hair of the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion will be killed by me today!"

Ye Chen's voice was like a huge bell, loud like thunder, deafening. A strong self-confidence accompanied by unparalleled dominance made everyone around him tremble in their hearts.

Lu Jiu was slightly stunned, then frowned, turned around suddenly, and saw Ye Chen.

His expression changed slightly, and he sneered again: "Who do you think you are? You dare to interfere with what I do? Do you know who I am?!"

"Oh, you are nothing."

Ye Chen's face darkened. Only Li Ze, the son of the Left Minister, could compare with Lu Jiu in terms of his arrogance and dominance.

And it seems that the two of them are a master and a servant. It is true that like master, like servant. And from this point of view, Li Shanyu, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, is definitely not a good person.

This is definitely not the first time these guys have done something like this.

"Qiu'er, come on, capture the leader. Anyone who dares to stop us will be killed!"

Ye Chen smiled coldly and gave orders with great dominance, using tough and ruthless means.

"Yes!"

Shen Qiu's eyes were cold and he drew his sword.

In an instant, the imperial guards who had been hiding nearby rushed towards Lu Jiu's men.

In the first encounter, several heads fell down with "puff puff puff".

All of Lu Jiu's men were suddenly horrified.

These lackeys are not very loyal to begin with. They follow Lu Jiu only to bully the weak and the small.

Now seeing that several of their companions had died at once, they realized that they had met a tough opponent, and they immediately started shouting and scattering like birds and beasts.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Jiu's face turned pale and he wanted to run away immediately, but he was obviously overthinking it. Shen Qiu rushed up, grabbed his collar, and lifted him in front of Ye Chen like a chicken.

Ye Chen kicked Lu Jiu in the chest, causing him to roll three times on the ground. He gasped for breath several times and almost died.

"Who are you? Dare to mess with me? I'm the housekeeper of Zuo Shilang's family. You're dead!"

Lu Jiu recovered, covered his chest and stared at Ye Chen with his hands, his eyes red. Even though he was kicked, he was not afraid, but became furious instead.

Hearing this, Ye Chen smiled coldly and stepped on his hand with force.

"Ah!"

Lu Jiu cried out in pain, tears streaming down his face.

Ye Chen's tough approach made this guy suffer terribly.

"Qiu'er, arrest this man and torture him severely. Make him confess all the bad things he has done over the years!"

The Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, right?

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and thought that dealing with a lackey was not a big deal at all.

He was originally going to reorganize the Ministry of Revenue, and since the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue took the initiative to step forward, he naturally would not be polite.
