Chapter 71 Forcibly Driven Out of the Mansion
Chapter 71 Forcibly Driven Out of the Mansion
Upon hearing this, Madam Fan became nervous.
Fan Yunying helped her up and said, "Grandmother, let's go outside first."
Remembering something, Madam Fan pointed to the east wing and said to Hao Fu, "My Ru'er is in that room. He drank too much today and is probably still unconscious. You must go and protect him!"
Hao Fu turned and winked at the two guards.
Two guards rushed to the east wing and carried out the sleeping Fan Yunru.
Then, Madam Fan led Fan Yunying and Iris to the outside of the courtyard, leaving the area for the guards to search.
Less than a quarter of an hour.
A guard ran out of Madam Fan's room and presented two packets of powder to Hao Fu.
"Good steward, this was found in the old lady's room!"
Upon seeing the two packages, Madam Fan, Fan Yunying, and Iris's expressions changed drastically.
Madam Fan angrily retorted, "Weren't you supposed to be searching for thieves? Who gave you permission to touch my things?"
"it's me."
Madam Fan turned around and saw the three Ye siblings approaching them with the family physician Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng stepped forward, took the medicine packet from Hao Fu, examined it, and reported, "Young Master, Second Young Master, Third Miss, this is aphrodisiac powder, the same as the aphrodisiac powder in the Second Young Master's meal last time, and also the same as the aphrodisiac powder in the tea in the Young Master's study today."
Ye Shijun, whose temper had been raging for a long time, pointed at Old Madam Fan and Fan Yunying and cursed, "You two are shameless! You do this kind of thing time and time again. Do you really think we wouldn't dare to do anything to you?"
Madam Fan, Fan Yunying, and Iris all looked deathly pale.
Ye Shishu stepped forward, staring coldly at them, and said, "Last time, my father let you off the hook because my cousin Yunying said she liked my second brother. But this time you used the same tactic on my eldest brother's tea. What are you trying to do? Do you think the Ye family won't dare to do anything to you because of your relationship with my father, or do you think you can choose any man in the Ye family?"
Madam Fan, enraged and humiliated, retorted arrogantly, "Why do you accuse us of tampering with Shi Ting's tea? Everyone says you have to catch an adulterer in the act or a thief red-handed, but did you see it with your own eyes? So what if I have aphrodisiac? Is that something rare? Just because I have it doesn't mean we tampered with it."
Ye Shijun was so amused by her shamelessness that he shook his leg and mocked, "Grandma, you're not carrying these things for yourself, are you?"
"you!"
"If it's not for your own use, then it's for your grandchildren. But they're not married yet. It would be too shocking for unmarried men and women to use something like this!"
"You scoundrel! I am your great-aunt, how dare you show such disrespect to your elders!" Old Madam Fan raised her hand and pointed at him angrily, her old face turning ashen as she cursed.
"Elder? Do you deserve respect for your character?" Ye Shijun sneered.
Ye Shiting stood with his hands behind his back, coldly ordering the guards, "Men! Escort these three—grandfather and grandson—out of the mansion!"
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Fan couldn't help but stomp her foot, "Ye Shiting, how dare you! You disrespectful and rebellious brats, call your father over, I want to ask him how he raised you!"
However, faced with her shouting and shrewishness, the three Ye siblings remained unchanged, their cold faces showing no sign of softening.
The guards didn't dare hesitate and stepped forward one by one, grabbing one of them in pairs and heading towards the gate.
To prevent them from making a fuss, the guards 'thoughtfully' covered their mouths.
"Brother, if we just send them out like this, I don't think they'll be satisfied and will cause trouble later..." Ye Shijun gritted his teeth, feeling that it was too easy on that old woman, and wanted to pull out her tongue.
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Shiting interrupted, "Don't worry, if they dare to cause trouble, they will lose face. Gu Yong is still evaluating Fan Yunru, and Fan Yunru knows what to do, unless he doesn't want to be the son-in-law of the Grand Secretary."
After thinking about it carefully, Ye Shijun also felt that it made sense.
The Fan family is ambitious, and now that they've been disliked by the Ye family, they'll definitely try every means to curry favor with the Prime Minister's Mansion. Even if they hate the Ye family, they still need to truly climb up to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
As for the Grand Secretary's Mansion, the Ye family will have to contend with them sooner or later. They are not afraid of offending them, so why would they be afraid of them standing up for the Fan family?
Then Ye Shiting ordered Hao Fu to lead men to pack up the belongings of the Fan family members from the house and throw them out the door.
……
Hearing the rooster crow, Ye Gengxin rubbed his temples and opened his eyes.
The next moment, he sat up abruptly. Although there was no one beside him, looking at the messy bed and smelling the unusual scent in the air, many scenes involuntarily surfaced in his mind, making his face turn pale and then red.
"Someone come here!" he shouted towards the door.
"General, you're awake?" Hao Fu pushed open the door and came in.
The eldest son instructed him not to be disturbed and to keep watch secretly. He only dared to approach the master bedroom after Ninth Aunt left.
Ye Gengxin's face was filled with embarrassment, but he still mustered up his courage to ask, "Where is Ninth Aunt?"
Hao Fu lowered his head and replied, "General, Ninth Aunt left half an hour ago."
Ye Gengxin raised his hand to his forehead.
His reputation is truly illustrious...
All gone!
Hao Fu noticed his awkwardness and, in order to comfort him, told him in detail about the search of Qiushui Courtyard last night and the expulsion of the Fan family from the General's Mansion.
"General, please don't blame yourself. We all know that this is not your fault."
"Sigh!" Ye Gengxin sighed in shame. It wasn't entirely his fault, but he had slept with the innocent Ninth Aunt—how could he let this go? Thinking of the instigator, he cursed furiously, "Those grandmother and granddaughter are truly despicable and shameless! I've already given them one chance, yet they show no remorse and dare to use such vile means against Shi Ting! Good riddance! From now on, I have no aunt like her!"
Hao Fu said, "General, this old servant has already had hot soup prepared. Would you like it brought in now?"
Ye Gengxin was embarrassed again, but he still nodded.
the other side.
When Ninth Aunt returned to Yuexin Courtyard, the first person she looked for was Yuchi Ling.
After meeting with Ninth Aunt, Yu Chi Ling told Ye Shi Shu, "Ninth Aunt has returned to the military camp."
Ye Shishu was not surprised, and even completely understood Ninth Aunt's actions. Ninth Aunt did not contact her immediately to avoid embarrassment, and now that Ninth Aunt had left, it was to avoid an awkward situation between the Prince Cheng's Mansion and the General's Mansion.
As soon as it was light, Qiuju announced outside the bedroom door, "Miss, the General has arrived and is waiting for you in the flower hall."
Ye Shishu barely slept a wink all night, staying up until now, mainly waiting for his father.
Before long, she entered the flower hall.
Ye Gengxin glanced at her and then looked away, not daring to meet her gaze. "Shu'er, about last night..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Shishu interrupted, "Father, Ninth Aunt has already asked the Prince for permission to return to the military camp."
"She's gone?!" Ye Gengxin couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
