Chapter 24

The Ye family father and son said some more words, and Ye Ying reluctantly left the prison.

A few days later, Duan Yuhao summoned Yu Ze, Ling Xichi and He Linyuan to enter the palace, but they entered the palace quietly in the middle of the night.

"I've asked you all for something important, and I think you all know it well." Duan Yuhao invited several people to sit down.

"I intend to clean up the government. My father and emperor have not completely cleared up this matter. Now that it's here, I must reorganize the government." Several people who Duan Yuhao said knew about it a few days ago.Several people did not speak, quietly listening to Duan Yuhao continue.

"Half a month ago, my spies beside Liu Da reported that they wanted to frame Ye Hongxin. Seriously, I can't stop it. I can only do what I can. This is also an opportunity, an opportunity to catch a big fish." Duan Yu Hao walked down and patted He Linyuan on the shoulder.

"There are only a few of your confidantes around me who can be used, and you are also the people I trust the most. I hope you can help me."

"I will definitely do my best." Several people said in unison.

"Okay. Then I will continue to talk about the spies I sent out. The report only said that there is someone behind Liu Da, but it has not been found out who is behind this. These days are the time for the spies to report regularly. , but I waited for a few days, and the spies did not report. I guess the spies were discovered and killed by Liu Da. So now I can only use Ye Hongxin to lure out a few other people. So Yu Ze, you must send troops to be interested Protect Ye Hongxin from being silenced by those ruthless villains."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely protect Lord Ye." Yu Ze stood up and replied.

"In addition, General Ling, you transfer [-] soldiers from the northwest to the imperial city, and take [-] of them to enter the interior of the imperial city and surround the palaces of the major lords. The rest of the troops will continue to stay in the northwest and always pay attention to the attacks of other countries. They took the opportunity to attack our country."

"The minister takes orders."

"He Linyuan, I know that you have a deep relationship with Mr. Ye family. The Ye family was involved in this matter. You have suffered many unreasonable disasters, so you should protect the Ye family secretly, lest Liu Da and others use other members of the Ye family to blackmail Ye Hongxin. Plead guilty. If Ye Hongxin pleads guilty, even if I have great abilities, I can't clear up Ye Hongxin's grievances."

"The minister obeys the order."

After talking about the matter, Duan Yuhao quietly sent someone to take a few people home.

Sure enough, as soon as Yu Ze returned to the Ministry of Officials, someone came to report that someone had come to the cell to kill people and silence him.But fortunately, Ye Hongxin was secretly taken to another place to be imprisoned the day before yesterday because of special circumstances, and he was not in the prison.

Duan Zhiqi led an army of [-] and marched from the northwest in the name of the Qing emperor.Ling Xichi also led the army to surround Duan Zhiqi's team in one fell swoop.

On the other hand, Yu Ze, He Linyuan and others successfully uncovered a few big fish in the court, including Liu Da, Minister of Rites, Gao Wenshan, Minister of Industry, and others. The situation in the court has been settled, and Ye Hongxin was also arrested released.

As soon as Ye Hongxin came out of the prison, he saw Ye Yi and Ye Ying standing at the door waiting for Ye Hongxin.

Seeing them, Ye Hongxin had tears in his eyes, but he was forced back by Ye Hongxin forcefully.

But Ye Ying couldn't help crying. Seeing Ye Ying's tears, Ye Hongxin hurriedly said, "Zian, it's not that I have nothing to do. It's all right, it's over."

"Yeah." Ye Ying nodded repeatedly.

Ye Yi and Ye Ying took Ye Hongxin back to the mansion, and everyone in the family came out to welcome him.

Ye Mansion held a big banquet to celebrate Ye Hongxin.

Duan Yuhao also restored Ye Hongxin's position, and sent a lot of supplements to show his condolences.

Ye Ying came to He Mansion.

"Master Ye, why are you here?" He Linyuan put down his work.

Without saying a word, Ye Ying threw herself into He Linyuan's arms and said, "My father is fine."

"I know." He Linyuan patted Ye Ying's back.

"I'm so happy. Although I have never listened to my father, but...but..."

"I know. I know." He Linyuan rubbed Ye Ying's head again.

Only then did Ye Ying belatedly realize that she couldn't help throwing herself into He Linyuan's arms, and quickly backed away.

"Master He, I'm sorry. I'm so happy. I'm a little carried away."

"It's nothing, I'm relieved to see you happy." He Linyuan smiled.

Ye Ying's ears turned red at a visible speed.

"Then what, Mr. He has time the day after tomorrow. I want to thank you for allowing me to meet my father." Ye Ying said, wringing her hands.

"Yes. The day after tomorrow happens to be a holiday."

"Then let's talk about it, I will come to you that day."

"Ah."

Ye Ying has been cooking some supplements for Ye Hongxin for the past two days.Ye Hongxin went to court after resting for a few days.

It was the day Ye Ying and He Linyuan made an appointment.

Ye Ying came to the Xiangju Building early in the morning, and Yuanyuan has been kept with Li Ranhan during this time. Ye Ying didn't see Yuanyuan until today when she came to Xiangju Building.

Yuanyuan hadn't seen Ye Ying for a while, and as soon as Yuanyuan saw Ye Ying stepping into Xiangju Building, Yuanyuan jumped off the table and ran to Ye Ying's feet.

Ye Ying saw Yuanyuan running over and hugged Yuanyuan, when Li Ranhan saw her, Li Ranhan pointed at Yuanyuan and said, "I've kept it for a long time, but when I saw you, it ran over like that. You too."

"Hey." Ye Ying smiled at Li Ranhan.

"By the way. Sister Han, there are a lot of fresh dishes in the building today?"

"Yeah, what are you going to do?" Li Ranhan said to Ye Ying, fiddling with his abacus.

"It's nothing, I just want to make something with my own hands."

"Okay, go to the kitchen by yourself. I still have some things to do."

"Okay." Ye Ying handed Yuanyuan to Li Ranhan and went to the kitchen.

Ye Ying came to the kitchen and saw Lu Xiang was busy in the kitchen, saw Ye Ying coming in, stopped what she was doing and said to Ye Ying: "Shopkeeper, why are you here? I will cook for you what you want to eat." Lu Xiang Xiang also patted himself on the chest and said reassuringly.

"No need, it's not that I want to eat. I just cook some dishes and send them to Mr. He." After Ye Ying finished speaking, she walked to the cutting board to look at Lu Xiang's dishes.

"That's it. I'll move some space for you." Lu Xiang quickly removed some kitchen utensils and brought some new ones for Ye Ying to use.

"Thank you. You can do your own work. Leave me alone." Ye Ying waved to Lu Xiang.

"Okay." Lu Xiangzhen ignored Ye Ying and went to work on other things.

Ye Ying didn't do anything but cooked some home-cooked dishes.For example, potato shreds, crucian carp tofu soup, braised pork, white fungus and lotus seed soup, and Xiangjulou's signature hibiscus prawns, and finally a small dish of pumpkin cake.

Ye Ying packed these dishes in food boxes, and took three jars of wine from Xiangjulou.

When Yuanyuan smelled the aroma of the food, she jumped onto the table, rubbing her body against the food box and meowing at Ye Ying.

Seeing that Yuanyuan loves her dishes so much, Ye Ying couldn't help but feel a little better, and thought of what it would be like if He Linyuan tasted the dishes she cooked with her own hands, so she looked forward to it.

Ye Ying came to He Mansion at noon with a food box, wine, and a cat in her arms.

The servants of the He Mansion had already obtained the order, knowing that Ye Ying was coming today, they didn't stop Ye Ying, and let Ye Ying go in.

Ye Ying felt a little strange that the attendant at the door didn't stop him, but after thinking about it later, He Linyuan must have greeted him in advance.

He Linyuan was busy with his own business at that time, when he saw Ye Ying coming with something, he stopped what he was doing and said to Ye Ying, "Why are you here so early. Have you eaten yet?"

Ye Ying showed the food box to He Linyuan: "Not yet, isn't this just looking for you to eat? Or...you have already eaten?"

Ye Ying's voice was a little low as she spoke, Ye Ying felt a little embarrassed, because although these dishes were easy to prepare, it still took some time, and it was already half past noon.

In fact, He Linyuan had already eaten, but he didn't eat much.Because He Linyuan thought Ye Ying would come over at night.

"No, I've been busy so far and haven't eaten yet. I just happened to be hungry, so you came." He Linyuan said to Ye Ying without blushing.

"Really!? Then hurry up and eat." Ye Ying put the food box on the table, opened it and took out all the dishes and put them on the table.

Ye Ying put Yuanyuan down as soon as she entered the door, and now that Yuanyuan smelled the aroma of the food, she jumped onto the stool.

He Linyuan came over, took a piece of fish with chopsticks and gave it to Yuanyuan to eat.

Yuanyuan jumped off the stool with the fish in her mouth and found a place to eat the fish.

Ye Ying watched He Linyuan's movements, and then looked at Yuanyuan, feeling resentful in her heart: the first bite of the dish she made with her own hands was for Yuanyuan, and He Linyuan didn't even take a bite, really.

Ye Ying thought to herself, it would be better not to bring Yuanyuan next time, but to come alone.

He Linyuan and Ye Ying sat down, He Linyuan ate a piece of fish, Ye Ying looked at He Linyuan's expression expectantly.

"It's delicious. This fish tastes different from the one I ate in Xiangjulou. Did you cook it, Young Master Ye?"

"Yeah, since I want to thank you, it's more meaningful to do it myself, but the fish has been a little long, and it's only a little warm. Why don't you let someone warm it up?" Ye Ying touched the loaded fish The bowl said to He Linyuan.

"No, it's still hot, let's eat it quickly." He Linyuan said to Ye Ying with a smile.

"Okay." Ye Ying seemed to have seen He Linyuan look at Yuanyuan just now.

Ye Yingyou took out the wine glass to fill He Linyuan and herself with wine, Ye Ying raised the wine glass and said to He Linyuan: "Master He, this time my father can be released from prison safely, I must have Mr. He, I respect you." Said Ye Ying drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"Slow down, I don't take any credit for this matter. Because I believe Master Ye must not have done such a thing." He Linyuan also drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

"Yes." Ye Ying naturally did not listen to He Linyuan's polite words.

Ye Ying took a chopstick of hibiscus prawns and gave it to He Linyuan: "Try this, although I didn't make it, but it is my favorite dish."

He Linyuan took the bowl and ate one.As He Linyuan was eating, he remembered the plate of hibiscus prawns that Yeying gave away at Xiangjulou.He Linyuan smiled.Ye Ying looked at He Linyuan and smiled, and naturally knew that He Linyuan remembered the hibiscus prawns he gave He Linyuan and Xu Che at that time, Ye Ying felt even more embarrassed, and buried her head to stop looking at the smile on He Linyuan's face.
