Yang Shiliu works

Chapter 230: Even If You Look Down On Me, You Can't Tou

    

bangs: "Who are you talking to So much nonsense! What do you mean One is your uncle emperor, the other is the Emperor of Beiqi, who are you asking"Quan Qingcheng was so moved. Guiyue County Princess...Faced with Ye Er's furious scolding, Yun Chen immediately frowned, "Please, Master Ye, be mindful of your words. If you continue to speak ill of the doctor, don't blame me for being impolite towards you."

"You're welcome, what are you going to do about it"

"Well then, I must certainly cast a divination for the esteemed General's Mansion. As for what it will reveal, that is beyond my purview. It depends on what constellations the master reveals. What if he shows a malefic star Will you live or die"

He successfully retorted with a single sentence, shutting down the night scene. He didn't want to die; he was afraid of being inspected by the authorities.

So, he didn't make a fuss about smashing anyone, and even proactively moved his own chair back to its original place. He sat down huffily.

The old madam was a little dumbfounded by this scene. She really couldn't understand what Yun Chen and Lian Shi were up to.

The whole family was called to the front yard and the narration hall, just to hear these two people talk nonsense here Just to hear them sneer and mock here Isn't it just to come here and scold people on purpose What grudge do they have against each other

Nightflyer Boat couldn't stand staying in this house any longer, so he asked Yunchen: "May I go see our family's Si If the father-in-law is not at ease, he can send a palace maid to follow me. I will only go to Si's quarters."

Yun Chen immediately nodded: “Second Young Master, go! The Fourth Sister trusts you, so this official has nothing to say. You don't need to send anyone with you.”

Yefei Zhou bowed and left, without another glance at his father.

"Although the Second Master is not so good, the Third Young Master is still decent," Lian Shi said. Then she glanced at Ye Chu'lian and immediately added, "The Fifth Sister is also good."

The old lady felt a twinge of heartache at this. It wasn't that she was unhappy with them praising Ye Fei Zhou and Ye Chu Lian, it was that she couldn't understand why Ye Fei Zhou needed to ask Yun Chen for permission to visit Ye Wen Yan. Yun Chen could just nod his approval, shouldn't Mu Shi have a say Could it be that Yun Chen had taken a liking to Ye Wen Yan And with Mu Shi's attitude, was she eight out of ten times agreeing

She thought this way, and let out a breath of relief. Yunchen was Yunchen, though he could be troublesome, he was still better than the other one. Previously, she had truly made the worst preparations, but now she felt more and more that it wasn't the other person, but Yunchen. It really felt like surviving a disaster. After all, Yunchen's strength was far greater than the other person's, so the pressure on their side wouldn't be too great.

The night view was spectacular, but the boats for nighttime excursions had already left. People went back to their respective homes, and Li again started competing with tea.

He said, "Get up! A scholar's household is much more refined than a military one. I once saw the elder sister of the Left Minister, who could conjure images of dragons and phoenixes in her teacup—truly astonishing!"

Yun Chen also followed suit and said, "There's also a legitimate daughter from the Ministry of Rites. It is said that she can also transform into various landscapes."

Ye Qingmei, hearing this, chimed in, "I hear that it's very difficult to learn the art of dividing tea"

“Time nodded, “Yes, it’s very difficult to learn. That’s why so far only those two sisters have mastered it. There was even a funny story before, where a daughter of an official of the fifth rank was practicing tea reading at home and accidentally manifested some flowers and plants. She thought she had learned it and rushed to show off in front of others. But that was just a fluke. Besides that one time, she never managed to distinguish patterns again. This made her very depressed, and whenever she saw tea, it was like seeing an enemy. She didn't even dare for people to drink tea in front of her.”

Ye Chulian thought for a moment and also asked, "Wouldn't the masters who possess this skill be rare My family had also invited a tea master, and I specifically asked her if she could teach me how to separate tea. Unfortunately, she couldn't. There are probably very few people in this world who can master the art of separating tea with such precision, you could count them on one hand. In that case, the eldest daughters of the Left Minister's family and the Ministry of Rites truly are exceptional in their beauty."

Yun Chen let out a hearty laugh, then said to Lian Shi, "Don't worry about dividing the tea. We're just drinking this ordinary tea now, even if we try to make art with it, it would be a waste of such skilled craftsmanship."

Lin nodded, "That's right, the tea at General's Mansion is truly unpalatable. There's no aroma whatsoever, and I wonder how long it has been sitting around. It's quite audacious of them to serve such stale tea to guests."

Yunchen said again, "Perhaps he just doesn't like us, that's why he brought the tea from Chen."

"The night view is so beautiful, I can't bear to listen any longer. "It's still the first lunar month, and it hasn't even reached Qingming yet, where would there be new tea Besides, what's wrong with this tea This was given by the late emperor last year, what's wrong with it"

"Oh, last year's No wonder it tasted stale, it's been a whole year!"

The night scene was really annoyed, how could these two people not understand what she was saying “It’s before Qingming Festival, we can’t pick tea yet. This is the best tea that General’s Mansion can offer. Drink it if you like!”

Even when he spoke, she ignored him and turned to Mu Shi instead. "I don't know if Madam would like tea. The Emperor in the South is using his spiritual energy to protect a tea mountain, which produces tea year-round. Yan Hua Palace always has freshly roasted tea. I'll have someone bring some over later for Madam and Master and Miss. If you like the taste, we can send it over regularly."

The night scene was so beautiful that my eyes turned red. Does the Emperor often send tea to our Mu family What logic is there behind this

But he didn't dare to ask, he could only roll his eyes, feeling very upset inside.

People sat in the hall, chatting awkwardly but comfortably. Almost two hours passed before they realized it. The two of them didn't show any intention of leaving, nor did they make it clear why they were there in the first place.

It seems like they're just here to chat idly, but what could they possibly have to talk about

After a while, Lian Shi pressed her stomach and said, "Is it noon already I'm a little hungry."

The old lady suddenly relaxed, her heart saying that this must mean she was leaving, right

The Xiao family hurried to their feet and politely asked, "Would the two esteemed guests care to stay for lunch"

Following this pattern, the host politely says they're happy to have company and then the guest replies: "No, no, don't bother."

However, Yun Chen and Lian Shi were completely off script! Upon hearing that the Xiao family wanted to keep them for dinner, they immediately agreed. "Great, great!" they exclaimed. "We don't need anything elaborate, just a few simple dishes will do. And no fancy halls or banquet rooms, please! Just right here. We have tables, just set them up and let's eat together."

Xiao's nose almost crooked from anger, "You two really don't treat yourselves as outsiders, do you"

But now that the words were out, she had no choice but to say: "It's not really appropriate here, is it With separate seating for men and women, there are a few unmarried ladies in this room! If word gets out, it wouldn't be good for their reputations."

I waved my hand dismissively. "It's not a problem, because I wasn't even at the same table in the first place! It's like having your own individual table, just like during a grand banquet in the palace. It doesn't break any rules."

Then Xiao was speechless. She could only arrange for servants to prepare the meal. But she soon realized that as soon as she assigned the servants standing in the courtyard, palace attendants would follow them immediately. Wherever the manor's servants went, the palace attendants went too, not a single one left behind.

This made her feel a little flustered, she only felt that it was like being watched. But why monitor the general's mansion What would they do after monitoring Could it be... She thought of a possibility in her heart: a raid!

This idea made Xiao shiver. She instinctively turned back to look at the old mistress. And the old mistress clearly saw the scene of the palace maids following up, her thoughts were no different from Xiao's.

But the two women couldn't understand what crime the Ye family had committed to end up in such a dire situation. And even if it was a matter of seizing their assets, shouldn't it have been done by officials from the court Why were it Yun Chen and Lian Shi This... Is this seeking personal revenge

The old lady stood up and decided to probe: "Jun Tao, I have a stomach ache."

Jun Tao immediately understood her meaning and helped her to walk toward the back hall.

When a woman has stomach pain, it usually means she needs to use the restroom. Even if Yun Chen and Lian Shi refused to make sense, they couldn't stop her from relieving herself urgently. So the two of them didn't stop her, only Lian Shi spoke up and instructed a palace maid standing at the door: "You, go with her."

When the old madam heard this, she shuddered. Even when she went to the toilet, someone followed her. Could it be that the Ye family was truly facing a great calamity

Xiao's heart pounded even faster, but she refused to give up. She decided to follow the old mistress' lead. Her eyes darted around as she said, "I'm going back to change my clothes too. Lunch has already been served. Please wait for me, I'll be right back." She then grabbed her maid, Jinxiu, and walked out.

With a flick of his wrist, another palace maid immediately followed suit.

The night view exploded again— “What are you guys trying to do Why is it okay for men to follow women changing clothes”

Lin Shi frowned: "Master Er, that's not right. Where did you get the idea it was a man The one who followed clearly was an eunuch! Eunuchs serve even the Empress in the palace, so why wouldn't they be able to serve your household Is your Second Madam more esteemed than the Empresses in the palace If that's the case, this matter needs to be brought to the palace and we need to ask the two empresses if they are willing to be second to someone else!"

Xiao, upon hearing this, quickly went to stop Ye Jian's words, urging him not to speak any further. Then she opened her mouth and said: "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Both of you great lords mustn't take offense. It's all a misunderstanding. How dare we compare ourselves to the masters in the palace"

Lianshi snorted coldly, "Then the second mistress should go quickly! The earlier she goes, the sooner she returns!"

Xiao was indeed in and out quickly. It wasn't because she wanted to go back and change her clothes, but rather she wanted to leave the Xiuming Hall for some fresh air and to think carefully about what to do if the Ye family truly was facing a major calamity. She still had quite a few things in her room – jewelry and ornaments were one thing, but the most important were those land deeds. She absolutely had to find a way to transfer them out, ensuring they wouldn't be confiscated along with the Ye family estate.

She hadn't expected any palace maids to follow her, let alone one who directly entered the room with her, separated by a thick screen. She didn't have time to do anything else but hastily change her clothes and return to the hall of Ming Xuan.

When Xiao returned, the matriarch had also come back, even arriving ahead of her. The two looked at each other, both seeing the confusion and alarm in each other's eyes.

The night scene stared at Yun Chen and Lian Shi with wide, unblinking eyes. Even when the servants brought up a simple midday meal, he still said, “Eat more, don't come for nothing.”

Yunchen laughed, "Lord Ye Er is saying we're here to beg for food!"

Even when facing this, Lian Shi smiled and said, “Grandfathers, you needn't give us such a cold look. Since you dislike us, yet can neither drive us away nor eliminate us, why not accept this calmly to spare yourselves the anger and suffering”

The night scene roared, "What are you doing here"

Lien then said, “Drop by!”

"Drop by" Ye Xinglai's voice was laced with sarcasm, "Dropping by is a private matter, our family has the right to not receive guests!"

Yun Chen nodded repeatedly, "That's right, that's right, the Ye family certainly has this authority. After all, in the current Yè Sheng Dynasty, naturally everything belongs to the Ye family. Isn't that right, Your Majesty"

The old lady was startled when Yun Chen bowed to her again and called her "Your Majesty, my wife." Her heart almost leaped out of her chest. She immediately rebuked Ye Jian Sheng: “Stop! Be quiet! The two of you are distinguished guests, honored visitors, and you must not be neglected!”

The night view was so breathtaking I felt like I was going to faint...

Here is the translation of the provided text:later. 。Each person had their own thoughts. The Xiao family had already sent someone to invite a doctor, and she personally helped Ye Lianmian up. She even ordered her close maid, Jinxiu, to personall...
