Chapter 143 I'll Pull Out Your Eyeballs
Nanny Ji is definitely the kind of servant who only does things to carry out orders. As long as Ye Wenyan speaks, she will hit wherever he points.
Just like now, Ye Wenyan asked her to move Ye Chulian's chair, but Nanny Ji didn't care if anyone was sitting on the chair, she just walked up and stretched out her hand to pull the back of the chair. The strength of her hand was so strong that Ye Hongzhuang staggered, and if the old lady hadn't helped her, she would have definitely sat on the ground.
The chair was pulled out. Nanny Ji held the chair with one hand and pulled Ye Chulian's hand with the other hand until she pulled her to Ye Wenyan's side. Then she slammed the chair to the ground, pressed Ye Chulian's shoulders and pushed her back into the chair.
The action was so quick and clear that the old lady was stunned, and the guests were also stunned. The Ye family actually brought servants into the palace. Where did they get such great power? Even when General Ye was here, there was no such thing!
Ye Chulian didn't understand what she had just experienced until she sat down. She felt that in the blink of an eye, the situation changed to her sitting and Ye Hongzhuang standing. And this time, Ye Hongzhuang's standing was more awkward because there was no chair.
The old lady was furious. "Ye Wenyan, what on earth are you trying to do? This is your third sister, and the Princess Su. How can you be so ignorant of etiquette and not distinguish between superiors and inferiors?"
Ye Wenyan was in a bad mood too. "You don't need the old lady to remind me. Of course I know she is the Princess Su. I also know how she got the title of Princess Su. So she has to stand here today, and stand straight. If she moves even a little bit, I will hang her on the beam of the Fenghuang Yufei Palace and beat her! And you can see if God dares to strike you down again!"
After saying this, Ye Hongzhuang dared not move, and the old lady dared not speak. The thoughts of the Ye family members present were immediately pulled back to the night of the first seven days of the sacrifice, to the scene where Ye Hongzhuang was beaten and the old lady's hair was burnt by lightning.
Ye Chulian even took a look at the old lady's hair. Although it was blocked by the headdress, it was still possible to see that many parts of her hair had been burned by fire, and a few places had been shaved off, revealing the scalp.
More people came in from outside the hall. They were several princes of Northern Qi.
The Crown Prince brought the Princess and two girls with him. After entering the hall, the Princess took her children and sat in the female seats.
The Second Prince also brought the Princess with him. The Princess had a big belly and looked like she was seven or eight months pregnant. The two of them separated as soon as they entered the palace, and the Princess sat with her eldest sister-in-law.
The princes behind came alone. As soon as the third prince entered the hall, he began to search. Finally, his eyes fell on the table of the Ye family and he glared at Ye Wenyan fiercely.
Ye Wenyan had no doubt that if she had not been in Fenghuang Yufei Palace, the Third Prince would have rushed to fight her. She recalled the night she sneaked back to the General's Mansion to see Ye Feizhou and heard Ye Feizhou say that when he left the mansion to practice martial arts, his master accepted him as a disciple just for the sake of the Third Prince. But the Second Master Ye thought he had a lot of face.
So, this vicious look came from here, right? Was it because Mu had locked up Ye Feizhou, so he took out his anger on her?
Ye Wenyan couldn't stand it anymore, and glared back on the spot, and silently mouthed three words: Are you sick?
The Third Prince understood what was happening and was about to rush towards her, but was stopped by someone.
He turned around to look, frowned and growled, "Old Four, what are you doing?"
Behind him, His Royal Highness the Dust King, Quan Qinghua, grabbed his arm and said calmly, "Third brother, the men's seats are on the left."
"You want to help her again?" The Third Prince's eyes lit up, "Fourth Brother, some things are enough to do once. You have helped her again and again, but do you really have feelings for her?"
Quan Qinghua did not answer but asked: "Who are you talking about, Third Brother?"
"You know exactly who I'm talking about!"
"I don't know." His voice was still calm, and he let go of the Third Prince's hand. "I just don't want to embarrass Third Brother. After all, it would not be a good thing if you broke into the female seats."
The Third Prince took a deep breath, glared at Ye Wenyan again, and after a while, he flicked his sleeves and stopped caring about it.
His Highness Prince Chen also took his seat, followed by His Highness the Fifth Prince who also sat down.
Ye Chulian's eyes had never left His Royal Highness Prince Chen's body since he entered the hall. She followed him all the way until Prince Chen took his seat. A palace servant served tea and stopped her, and only then did she reluctantly retract her gaze.
Ye Qing frowned and asked Ye Wenyan: "Did the Third Prince just glare at you?"
Ye Wenyan nodded, "Right! I scolded him too." "Why did you scold him?" Ye Qingmei didn't quite understand this train of thought, "He is the prince."
"So what if he is the prince? He has nothing better to do than to glare at me. I didn't gouge his eyeballs out, so he got the advantage. He deserves to be scolded. Big sister, don't keep mentioning His Highness or Prince. We all have one nose and two eyes, and we were born by our mothers and raised by our fathers. He is not nobler than anyone else. Why should he glare at others whenever he wants? I will scold him if he glares at me again next time."
Ye Qingmei said that she didn't want to talk to this sister anymore.
However, Ye Hongzhuang, who was standing next to the old lady, felt her heart tremble when she heard what she heard, and she subconsciously glanced at Ye Wenyan a few more times.
These glares made Ye Wenyan particularly annoyed, so he said again: "Stand still and don't move your eyes around. I failed to glare at the person who glared at me. If you glare at me again, I will glare at you."
Ye Hongzhuang and the old lady shuddered collectively.
Almost everyone who was supposed to arrive had arrived, so someone said, "The time is almost up, but we don't know who will arrive first, the Emperor or the Regent. There are rules for this order, and if the Emperor lets the Regent overrule him at the first palace banquet, that's not a good sign."
At this time, Madam Mu whispered, "The eldest princess hasn't arrived yet!"
Ye Wenyan then thought of the eldest princess in mourning clothes whom he met after coming out of Changxin Palace.
Yes, now that the eldest princess has entered the palace, there is no reason for her not to come and sit at the palace banquet.
Just as I was thinking about it, the eldest princess arrived. She was still wearing pure white mourning clothes, with a stern face without a smile. She walked into the hall with her head slightly raised, and walked towards the front step by step.
"It's been ten years, and this is the first time the eldest princess has attended a palace banquet." Madam Mu whispered, "She used to dislike crowds, and couldn't stand seeing families gathered together, and she couldn't stand people bringing young children into the palace. I heard that a few years ago, she went to the palace to visit the late emperor, and she ran into a minister bringing his four-year-old grandson to pay a visit to a concubine in the harem. As a result, the eldest princess went crazy when she saw the child, and insisted that it was her child, and she directly grabbed it. After grabbing the child, she ran around the palace, and more than a dozen palace servants couldn't catch her. Later, she may have lost her strength and accidentally fell into the lake. After she was fished out, she was fine, but the child drowned."
Mu sighed and stopped talking because the eldest princess had already looked in their direction. Her eyes were even more vicious than those of the Third Prince just now, and she was trembling all over.
Fortunately, a palace maid stepped forward to persuade them, and Wu Fei's voice sang: "The Emperor has arrived!"
The eldest princess then returned to her seat.
Madam Ye snorted coldly and said to Madam Mu: "This is all your fault!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Wenyan immediately stood up and answered respectfully: "Your Majesty is right. It was an old matter of the previous dynasty and we had no choice but to do it. If it was you, Emperor Ye Sheng, who ascended the throne, my father would never have fought that war because of your protection of the Qiuhu Kingdom."
The old lady was stunned, "Hurry up and sit down! Sit down! Do you know what you are talking about? Ye Wenyan, there must be a limit to fooling around! Let alone if this matter is confirmed, even if it is spread out, have you ever thought about what will happen to the Ye family? Our family already holds military power. Although there is nothing left now, the old soldiers in the army are still there. If the news gets out, what do you want the royal family to think? Do you want your relatives to be killed along with you?"
The old lady was really anxious. She was not afraid of people saying such things, but she was afraid of people listening to them, and even more afraid of people believing them. If the rumors got out, even the fake ones would be said to be true. Then the Ye family would be doomed, and all nine clans would be killed!
Ye Wenyan didn't think so. She told the old lady, "Don't worry, grandma. You can't kill me, and you can't kill the people I want to protect. If you don't believe me, just try it and see if we can stay safe and survive."
The old lady didn't dare to try, nor did she have the chance to try, because at this moment all the guests at the banquet stood up, including the princes, princesses, and the eldest princess Quan Qianluo.
The emperor arrived, and everyone knelt down to pay respect. Ye Wenyan knelt on the ground and was angry with the eldest princess and old lady Ye. Because of the delay caused by these two people, she forgot important things. Originally, she had just heard the analysis of the ladies beside her, and she wanted to do something bad to let the regent come out early to earn some face for Quan Qingcheng. In the end, all the plans were disrupted, and the young emperor Quan Qingcheng arrived before the regent.
The Emperor arrived, followed by the two Empress Dowagers. Empress Dowager Yu was still the same as before, not showing off, just finding her seat and sitting down, not even looking down.
Empress Dowager Li looked cheerful and energetic, not at all like her whose ancestral tomb had been bombed a few days ago. She was even smiling, looking at the Sixth Prince and nodding from time to time.
Finally, the Regent arrived.
There were quite a few people who, when they shouted "Long live the regent", their voices were much louder than when they had shouted "Long live the emperor" before.
The regent Quan Ji still looked like a scholar, but he was more high-spirited today, and I don't know if it was because of the New Year or something else. But it didn't matter, Ye Wenyan thought, if there was no evil at the palace banquet, it would be a shame for so many people to attend, she just wanted to see whether the evil maiden was good or not, and whether it was interesting.
The appearance of the Regent made Quan Qingcheng feel very embarrassed, because everyone was laughing at him, the young emperor, and watching the Regent perfectly suppress him.
He looked a little embarrassed, and subconsciously looked at Ye Wenyan. But seeing Ye Wenyan also looking at him with a smile, he immediately had the motivation to endure it.
At the New Year's Eve palace banquet, the new emperor should say words of blessing beforehand.
However, before Quan Qingcheng could speak, the Regent spoke first...
