I have suffered enough in my previous life, my cousin will never marry me

Chapter 88 What a great prestige

"Qi Yunsheng, what do you mean?"

Seeing the person's ill intentions, Ye Wanshu kindly advised, "If you want to cause trouble for A-Yin and me, you should choose a good time. Today is not an auspicious day."

"What's the matter? Miss Ye is hiding someone in Taowu and is afraid that I will find out?"

Qi Yunsheng smiled faintly: "Or maybe you are so eager to instigate a divorce between Chu Yin and me because you have found a new partner for her so that she can support you?"

Ye Wanshu shook her head speechlessly, finding this man completely unreasonable.

Thinking of the scene of the county magistrate coming to his house to curry favor with him over the past two days, Qi Yunsheng suddenly thought of something: "Miss Ye, you don't think that relying on a county magistrate like Ji Kang will make your life with Chu Yin smooth sailing in the future, do you?"

With sarcasm in his eyes, Qi Yunsheng sneered disdainfully, "Then you've really misjudged me. If you're smart, quickly hand over all the silver your grandmother left behind. Now is the time to help the court. If you were more self-aware like your mother, I might even be happy to speak a few good words for you to Governor Xue and Prince Yongning."

"That's really not necessary." Ye Wanshu didn't know where he got the confidence to be so arrogant. "Whether my grandmother left behind any money and whether she was willing to donate it to the court is my business. Mr. Qi is worrying too much."

"Ye Wanshu, please don't be ungrateful."

Qi Yunsheng had already lost his patience: "I'm doing this for your own good. You and Chu Yin are now helpless. Guarding so much silver will inevitably make people want you. Just hand it over and I will keep you safe."

"Although you are a little ugly, you have beautiful thoughts." Ye Wanshu sneered, too lazy to pay attention to him anymore, and was about to leave with Yan's mother and others.

"In that case, don't blame me for being rude."

Qi Yunsheng waved his hand and said sternly, "Search carefully and make sure you find the silver."

"Let's see who dares."

There was a loud shout, and a group of people suddenly rushed in from outside.

Ye Wanshu looked over when she heard the voice and saw Tingfeng and Gu Tingzhou, accompanied by dozens of guards, walking shoulder to shoulder into the yard, looking at each other with hostility.

"Wanwan, are you okay?"

Gu Tingzhou was the first to approach Ye Wanshu and explained anxiously, "I heard in the city that the Pacification Commissioner's Office had dispatched troops to Taowu, so I rushed here as quickly as possible."

The young man beside him also echoed: "Yes, Miss Ye, Master Gu has always been concerned about your safety, afraid that something might happen to you."

Gu Tingzhou's arrival was completely unexpected to Ye Wanshu.

This man is not in Lin'an to accompany his beloved "Jiang Guiren", but has come all the way to Yuhua Town and no one knows what's wrong with him.

"I am fine."

After responding coldly with three words, Ye Wanshu turned her gaze to Qi Yunsheng.

"Mr. Qi, you are so brave that you dare to mess with my daughter." Ting Feng quickly protected her and looked at Qi Yunsheng coldly.

"No." Qi Yunsheng froze suddenly.

He had met these two people when he came to Beijing. One was the young master of the Rongguo Mansion, and the other was Ji Yuan's close confidant. Both of them were powerful figures in Lin'an City.

How could they appear in Xiaoyuhua Town without any warning?

"Manager Feng, what do you mean?"

Looking at Ting Feng, Qi Yunsheng explained, "The Ye family ruined the reputation of the Prime Minister back then, and they are still criticized today. What I did today was to vent his anger." "Why, you, a failed scholar, still want to meddle in the Prime Minister's family affairs?"

Ting Feng's icy eyes fell on Qi Yunsheng, making him shiver unconsciously.

"I dare not, I dare not, I am just being kind-hearted."

As Qi Yunsheng was about to evade the question, Ting Feng showed no mercy and angrily scolded him, "Put away your kindness and don't even think about taking advantage of my girl."

Qi Yunsheng's face was embarrassed. He didn't know which evil god he had run into. He just felt extremely unlucky. He had just lost silver yesterday, and now he encountered such a strange thing today.

Ji Yuan suddenly sent his most trusted person to protect his daughter who had been abandoned for more than ten years. Gu Tingzhou was a woman who had disobeyed the Queen Mother and wanted to break off the engagement, but now he shamelessly ran back to the Ye family girl and fawned over her.

Fortunately, the Gu family was on Prince Yan's side, so Qi Yunsheng had no choice but to persuade Gu Tingzhou earnestly: "Master Gu, my family's Governor Xue is stationed in Yuzhou on behalf of Prince Yan. Are you planning to do something to disobey Prince Yan today?"

"Qi Yunsheng, you are just a small staff member under Xue Jiu. How dare you be so arrogant and make decisions on behalf of Prince Yan?"

Gu Tingzhou sneered and shook his head: "Today I want to see if you dare to touch my cousin's hair."

As soon as he finished speaking, the followers and servants around him gathered around Qi Yunsheng's men.

"Master Gu, you have already been disliked by the Queen Mother. I advise you not to make any more mistakes."

At this point, Qi Yunsheng had no room to back down and said, "I'm here today to collect the silver on the orders of Governor Xue and Prince Yongning. Even if I don't care about Prince Yan's face, Prince Yongning should at least show some respect. This is Yuezhou."

"I don't care who he is." Gu Tingzhou's eyes were stern. "As long as I'm here, don't even think about setting foot in this place."

"Then don't blame me for being ruthless."

Qi Yunsheng sneered and clapped his hands. A burst of dense footsteps sounded, and then a steady stream of soldiers rushed in, holding bows and arrows in their hands, and began to draw their bows and arrows, ready to shoot.

"Yesterday, pirates were harassing our county. I had to take extra precautions and specially dispatched two hundred archers to protect the silver."

Qi Yunsheng warned solemnly, "If Master Gu and the court steward don't retreat, I will have no choice but to execute them first and report later. I will kill them without mercy."

Looking at the archers filling the courtyard, Gu Tingzhou subconsciously grasped Ye Wanshu's hand. "Wanwan, don't be afraid. I will protect you today even if I die."

Ye Wanshu pushed him away in disdain: "Don't bother me, cousin."

She had long been disgusted with this man and didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore.

Moreover, Taowu is such a quiet place, she doesn't want to see fighting and bloodshed.

Looking directly at Qi Yunsheng, Ye Wanshu finally warned, "Qi Yunsheng, you've disturbed everyone's sleep so early in the morning. Get out of here right now. I can let you go, but if you continue to be stubborn, I'm afraid no one can protect you today."

"Just the people in front of you?" Qi Yunsheng shook his head disdainfully. "Ye Wanshu, you really overestimate your father and Master Gu."

If it were when he went to Beijing to take the imperial examination, he would still be a little afraid of Ji Yuan. Now that he is back in Yuezhou, he only needs to play both sides between Xue Jiu and Fu Mingchi, and he will be able to rise to prominence sooner or later.

Thinking of the young princess of Yongning Palace still being held hostage in Taowu, he sternly said, "Hand over all the Ye family's property and the young princess immediately, otherwise all these people in front of you will be buried with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Fu Mingchi leading Yu Bai and Fu Yunni walking out slowly.

Fu Mingchi looked at Qi Yunsheng with sinister eyes: "Qi Xiucai, you are so arrogant."
