Farming and reading family

In the eldest princess's view, those who are good at planning are good at playing chess.

Look ten steps ahead before you take one step, control the overall situation with the details, and become the winner before the other party can react.

Gao E still bowed, then turned to look at Prince Bin: "Where is Young Master Ning?"

"Ning Zhiyuan." Prince Bin called out.

Ning Zhiyuan and Zhu Mo were applying medicine to each other in the side room when they heard their master call out, "Master."

"Mrs. Chen is looking for you." Prince Bin gestured.

Ning Zhiyuan looked at Gao E.

"This is the sword I promised to Young Master Ning." Gao E handed the sword to Ning Zhiyuan.

Ning Zhiyuan took it with both hands excitedly when he heard it. He thought he would not be able to get the sword made of magic iron before leaving He County.

When Prince Bin heard Gao E say this, he immediately stood up and said, "Let me take a look first."

Ning Zhiyuan hurriedly presented the sword.

Bin Wang drew out his sword and examined it carefully. "Huh." He was a little confused and hurriedly covered it up. "Good sword, good sword."

Gao E caught the momentary confusion of Prince Bin, wondering what he had read. "The sword has been delivered. We shall take our leave."

Bin Wang nodded.

Gao E was about to leave with Jin Ruyi. Ye Linchuan, who heard someone coming from next door, took the opportunity to come over. When he saw Jin Ruyi as soon as he entered the door, he was subconsciously stunned.

Realizing his own loss of composure, Ye Linchuan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "This humble official greets the Princess, Prince Bin, and the Princess."

"What are you doing here?" The eldest princess threw the chess piece into the chess box with disgust.

Ye Linchuan glanced at Gao E and the others with disdain and said, "In this rural area, I'm worried that some uncouth people might come and disturb the princess's peace."

Gao E looked at Ye Linchuan, who was the one who started the trouble: "Master Ye, what do you mean by this?"

Ye Linchuan turned sideways with a dignified look on his face and didn't look at Gao E.

The eldest princess glanced at the two of them and asked, "Why do I feel like there's a feud between you two?"

"It's not really a holiday." Gao E spoke first, "I just know a little bit about Lord Ye."

Ye Linchuan's heart skipped a beat, thinking that Gao E and Jin Ruyi were together, and she must know about him and Jin Ruyi. He felt a little panicked at the moment.

"Princess, please don't listen to the nonsense of this ignorant village woman." He tried to stop her.

"I didn't intend to listen, but now that you mentioned it, I'm curious." The eldest princess looked at Gao E and said, "Go ahead."

Gao E glanced at Jin Ruyi. If Jin Ruyi didn't want her to say it, she could say something else.

When Ye Linchuan was an official in He County, he also had some things to say.

"Let me speak." Jin Ruyi bowed.

"Princess..." Ye Linchuan tried to stop her.

"Shut up." The princess glanced at Ye Linchuan, then looked at Jin Ruyi. "Speak."

She was surprised because the people around her were more or less acquainted with Gao E and the others.

Jin Ruyi bowed and immediately started talking about Ye Linchuan’s wife, and went all the way to how he got to know the eldest princess.

Ye Linchuan turned pale when he heard this. He didn't know how Jin Ruyi knew about his first wife.

The people around were filled with indignation when they heard this.

Ye Linchuan's willingness to be the eldest princess's lover can only be described as shameless. Others just regard him as a joke, and they didn't expect that he could rely on women to get to where he is today.

"Princess, please listen to me..." Ye Linchuan knelt on the ground and tried to defend himself.

"Is what she said true?" The eldest princess slowly stood up.

"The facts are not what she said..." Ye Linchuan didn't know what to say for a moment.

The eldest princess laughed and said, "I think it's a good idea to keep you. I'll take you with me and tell you about what you've done to prove how despicable and shameless men are."

Ye Linchuan's face turned pale.

"Women all over the world are very cautious for the sake of their reputation. If they are not careful, they will be criticized. However, men rely on women to rise to the top and be admired by others." The eldest princess sneered.

Prince Bin shrank aside to reduce his presence. The imperial sister was going too far in killing him.

"Princess, please listen to my explanation." Ye Linchuan tried to struggle.

If he were really treated like that by the eldest princess, there would be countless men who would want to kill him, and he would even be infamous for eternity.

"Then let me first explain what's going on with the Jin family." The eldest princess looked at Jin Ruyi.

Jin Ruyi also wanted to hear how Ye Linchuan would argue.

Ye Linchuan glanced at Jin Ruyi with resentment: "She is the daughter of a merchant. She saved me and funded my imperial examination just to make money after I passed the exam. I can't bear to be in cahoots with her..."

"Ye Linchuan, I was originally engaged to Yan Congfang, the captain of Qinzhou City. His family has been officials for generations. If I really had such an idea, why would I look for you?" Jin Ruyi said with sarcasm.

"The Yan family in Qinzhou City?" The eldest princess looked at Jin Ruyi.

"Yes."

"Then there's really no need to look for him." The eldest princess looked at Ye Linchuan. "Do you know what will happen if you lie to me?"

Ye Linchuan was nervous: "Princess, Princess, I am sincere to you..."

"But I don't need your sincerity." The princess interrupted Ye Linchuan, "I just think you are young and handsome, and you are willing to please me."

Ye Linchuan's face was pale. Now he could only survive by relying on the favor of the eldest princess.

"But I will not keep a man with a heart as vicious as a snake by my side." The princess looked at Ye Linchuan. "You abandoned your first wife and killed your own son. Ye Linchuan, you really opened my eyes."

"No, no..." Ye Linchuan muttered, and suddenly looked at Jin Ruyi with a sharp gaze, "She is slandering me."

"Ye Linchuan, you know whether I am slandering you or not." Jin Ruyi said indifferently, "You and Cao Jingshan have been married for many years without having children. This is retribution."

Ye Linchuan was stunned, and suddenly turned to Jin Ruyi and tried to grab her: "Son! Where is our son?"

In fact, he also thought it was retribution.

He and his first wife had two children. After abandoning his wife, he was worried that the two children would affect his career, so he dealt with them without leaving a trace.

It's normal for children to fall down and fall into the water.

Jin Ruyi left so decisively at the beginning, otherwise he would not have kept Jin Ruyi and her child.

It was not until he had been childless for many years that he remembered the child he had killed.

"You still have the nerve to mention your son." Jin Ruyi looked at Ye Linchuan sarcastically. "Why? Do you regret letting us go?"

Ye Linchuan looked confused.

The eldest princess looked at Jin Ruyi and asked, "Since you are the victim, how do you plan to deal with him?"

Jin Ruyi didn't look at Ye Linchuan: "I have nothing to do with him, I will leave it to the eldest princess to decide."

The princess laughed when she heard Jin Ruyi say this: "Ye Linchuan, you have been abandoned."

Ye Linchuan's mind was in a mess now. He didn't know whether to ask the princess to release him or ask Jin Ruyi to tell him the whereabouts of his son.

After all, he doesn't want to give up everything he has now.

Think back to when I was studying so hard, my hands and feet were covered with chilblains, my stomach was growling with hunger, and the light was so dim that I had to press my eyes against the book to see clearly...

He no longer wanted to live like that.

He wanted high office, wealth and glory, and no one could stand in his way...
