Chapter 422
Second Ye casually said, "Big brother, tell me what to do, and I'll arrange it right away."
The others echoed, "Yes, the Gu family not only hurt Zhuzhu, but A Ying can't follow the same path as Zhuzhu. We also need to give Zhenguo Duke Manor a lesson."
"We didn't come here for nothing this time. Whoever dares to bully the young ladies of our Ye family will be confronting me!"
"Right, right, right! We also need to thoroughly investigate Zhenguo Duke Manor, especially A Ying's husband, that Zhao Changdu!"
"If he is of the same virtue as Gu Boqing, after A Ying gives birth, we'll bring both A Ying and the child back to Haizhou."
"The Huo family also came today. Should we deal with that brat Zhao Changdu's sweetheart Huo Qiyun as well?"
"That Zhao brat is a philanderer everywhere, he doesn't seem to be a good person."
"I heard all the Zhao men are handsome. I wonder if he seduced our little A Ying with his looks."
Old Master Ye raised his hand to stop them and said slowly, "Leave the Zhao man for now. A Ying is carrying his child and must love him. I will deal with him and Gu Boqing personally later."
Everyone nodded, "Yes."
Second Ye's eyes showed deep admiration, "Big brother is decisive!"
The light in Old Master Ye's eyes froze as he said lightly and sipped his tea, "As for the others, we will stick to the old rules of the Ye family. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."
Do they really think the Ye family has endured for hundreds of years by learning the Four Books and Five Classics so extensively?
Old Master Ye narrowed his eyes coldly. A Ying cried so miserably when she hugged him, she must have suffered grievances. Since she was aggrieved, he would make those who bullied her pay the price.
He didn't live this many years in this world for no reason.
...
The grand wedding banquet officially began at dusk.
Everywhere was covered in bright red wedding fabrics and embroidered silk. Exquisite big red lanterns were hung everywhere in the manor.
The servants were busy shuttling around in festive clothes.
The hall was filled with smiling guests. Almost half of Bianjing City had gathered around the Ye family today.
"If Jiejie wants to win back Eldest Young Master Ye, there are ways."
Only then did Li Tian turn to look at Huo Qiyan with knitted eyebrows. "What ways?"
Seeing Li Tian's attitude softening, Huo Qiyan pulled her outside.
The lively hall was filled with celebrations and drinking, missing just two people did not attract any attention.
When they arrived at an empty place, Huo Qiyan took out a small green jade bottle from her sleeves embroidered with lotus vines. She smiled cunningly. “This drug can make a man lose his mind. If Jiejie gets Eldest Young Master’s body, Jiejie will certainly be able to enter the Ye family.”
Elder Marquis Huo was a famous scholar in court. How could Huo Qiyan as a young lady from a prestigious family have such a nasty drug?
Li Tian was suspicious but her expression remained aloof as she received it. “Do you know the Ye family only takes wives and no concubines?”
The corners of Huo Qiyan's mouth raised. “That’s right. So the only one who can marry Eldest Young Master is Jiejie.”
Li Tian looked at Huo Qiyan quietly. After a slight pause in thought, she put the bottle into her sleeve. "Thank you Miss Huo for your help."
Huo Qiyan was overjoyed that her scheme had succeeded. The smile at the corners of her mouth deepened as she watched Li Tian's fading back view.
In the wedding hall, Ye Qingchi wore bright red brocade robes with a black jade belt around his waist, appearing even taller. His deep black tranquil eyes were full of affectionate gazes looking at his bride before him, courteous and restrained yet deeply affectionate.
There was no lack of prestigious young masters in Bianjing City, but most were only prestigious themselves.
Ye Qingchi was different. His noble temperament was innate, making it difficult for people to look away once they set eyes on him.
Li Tian caressed the medicine bottle in her hand with slightly knitted brows.
Below the hall, the Fu family members had been forcibly brought to the Ye family by Ye family servants to attend the grand wedding ceremony.
Fu Old Lady glared indignantly with anger, her bony old hands tightly gripping the chair handles, her face alternating between green and white.
What the Ye family did was clearly slapping her old face!
Yet she didn't have the power to fight back!
Fu Xunzhi's lips quivered as he stared at Gu Shuang wearing wedding clothes with dark eyes.
He stared fixedly at her little face behind the ceremonial fan, not knowing what he felt.
