Rebirth of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 68 Did You Kill Fourth Sister?
Chapter 68 Did You Kill Fourth Sister?
"Er Niang, if I don't say it's because I survived, it's not a death feud. After all, we are a family. There is no evidence. I don't want to embarrass my grandmother. I only said that I slipped and drowned, and I didn't mention that I was drowned." How can you tell that I have framed Ye Wanxue?" Ye Muxi made sense with every word.

In fact, these are all false, Ye Muxi did not file a complaint purely because there was no evidence.And planning step by step, letting Erfang expose Ye Wanxue's harm to her drowning is the purpose of her planning.How could it be as simple as simply scaring Ye Wanxue.

Ye Muxi knew that Ye Wanxue had always been timid, she could faint from being scared even by a snake, so it's strange that she would talk nonsense for three days and three nights without being scared when she saw a ghost.

Sure enough, Ye Wanxue was frightened crazy, and Shen Yunpei delivered it to the door by herself. No evidence is needed, the old lady already understood that Ye Wanxue pushed Ye Muxi to the lake.

"Why don't you invite Second Sister here and see if she killed Fourth Sister in the nonsense she said." Ye Qingyao made up the knife, making Shen Yunpei's face pale and unable to utter a word.

In Ye Wanxue's nonsense just now, many people begged Ye Muxi for mercy, for example, I shouldn't have killed you.But Shen Yunpei didn't know that she pushed Ye Muxi into drowning, she just thought that Ye Wanxue was frightened and said words without choice and didn't care.

If Shen Yunpei had known that Ye Muxi was drowning tonight, she might have been able to guess something, and would not have come to complain to the old lady.But Ye Muxi kept it a secret, they didn't even know about it.

"It's okay to be domineering and domineering on weekdays, killing slaves and maidservants. But today she is so bold that she murdered her cousin, which is enough to show how vicious she is. My Ye family is a scholarly family. Brother Gong, the sisters are in harmony, and such an evil has happened!" The old matriarch said coldly, "Come here, gather everyone for me now, and gather in the ancestral hall."

The ancestral hall, this is the place where the ancestral tablets are enshrined, the Ye family had accidents one after another, and the old lady was really angry this time.

……

Ye Mansion, ancestral hall.

This is the most important place of the Ye family. Except for annual sacrifices, or when the family has a major event, they cannot enter the ancestral hall.

There are two rows of burning incense candles in the main hall, illuminating the whole room brightly.Behind the main hall is a screen wall standing in the middle. Entering from both sides, you can see rows of tablets of the ancestors of the Ye family, enshrining the ancestors of the Ye family.

When the old matriarch gave an order, the nuns immediately woke up all the people in the mansion, whether they were asleep or not, they all dressed neatly and went to the main hall of the ancestral hall.

Even the delirious Ye Wanxue was tied up with a rope and brought over with a cloth ball in her mouth.

The old matriarch sat on the grand master's chair in the hall with a gloomy face, and the other juniors stood in the hall.This was the first time Ye Muxi saw everyone in Ye Mansion since the new year.

The Ye family has four houses in total. The eldest son of the eldest house, Ye Linghong, is the magistrate of Jiangzhou.His wife Zhao Menglan, Ye Wanrou who had just committed suicide by hanging himself, Ye Wanfu who was beaten fifty times and couldn't get out of bed and was carried over, and then the concubine Ye Yiyun, standing on the left in order.As for concubines, they are not eligible to enter the ancestral hall.

On the right is Ye Linghai of the second room, who is mainly responsible for managing the shop and bank for the Ye family.Next to him stood the second wife Shen Yunpei, Ye Wanxue who was tied up, and Ye Yixiu, the second concubine and sixth young lady whom he saw for the first time after rebirth.

The third room is Ye Muxi's own mother, Lin Mingyu, and her younger brother Ye Hong, standing timidly behind.

The second room of Ye's parents' house also has a son brother, but they all study in an academy outside Jiangzhou City.Because of the long distance, I come back only once in seven days, so I am not here.

Ye Qingyao was the only one left in the fourth room, standing beside the old lady with Ye Muxi on the left and right.

This is the owner of the fourth house of the Ye family.

"I called you here today because too many things have happened in the Ye family recently. It coincides with the draft of the Chaohuang Academy, and I feel that it is necessary to emphasize the importance of the academy's assessment to you. Back then, your grandfather in the Ye family was born in a generation. She was a high-ranking lady from Chaohuang Academy, and married a relative of the emperor. Later, the master became the political envoy of the south of the Yangtze River, a senior official of the second rank. A few years later, the husband's family that Miss Ye married fell into decline, and the Ye family had no power in the court. He has no power, so the master was pushed out many times and finally became an official. But in Hong'er's generation, it is extremely difficult to be a fifth-rank magistrate, and it will be difficult to go any further." The old lady looked at the leaves in the room without anger. The descendants of the family, starting from the ancestors of the Ye family, said in a deep voice:

"Why is that? It's because Hong'er's sisters are not promising, and the Ye family has no relationship with the court officials. No matter how much money our Ye family spends, we can only go so far."

As soon as the words came out, the uncle Ye Linghong knelt on the ground immediately, with a face of shame, "My son is not filial, his career is not going well, so please worry about my mother."

When Ye Linghai saw his eldest brother showing filial piety, he was unwilling to follow suit, and knelt down, "My son is not filial. He has never passed the imperial examination, failed to honor his ancestors, and shamed his mother."

"Forget it, I don't have any hope in your generation. The reason why I mentioned the two generations of ancestors is to tell you that the marriage of the daughters of the Ye family is closely related to the future of our entire Ye family. We share weal and woe. The old man treats the granddaughters I had high hopes, but the result, now you have a look, the five prostitute daughters of the Ye family, Chaohuang Academy’s audition has not yet started, and they have already fallen in half. Even Rou’er has been implicated like this, how do you raise your children? Ye family If the third generation continues to decline, how can I have the face to meet the master in a few years." The old lady slapped the table fiercely in a domineering manner, and the thunder was furious.

The younger generations of the Ye family knelt down together, "Old Madam, calm down."

Ye Muxi watched this scene silently.The Ye family was indeed in decline. My grandfather was the political envoy of Jiangnan and was in charge of the administration of the 36 states in the south of the Yangtze River. But in my father's generation, my uncle was only in charge of the administration of one state in Jiangzhou. What a big gap.As for this position, the Ye family spends a huge amount of money every year, and the real money is donated to the current Jiangnan chief envoy to secure it.

The Ye family urgently needs to rely on the future of their children to save the decline.Don't count on the young masters, even if they pass the imperial examination, unless one of them is chosen by the emperor, their official career will not be easy.But girls are the same, Chaohuang Academy's assessment is the same as the emperor's draft.Some people can fly on a branch and become a phoenix, while others will waste their lives.

If the means are good, it is not impossible to marry the prince.But if one's luck is not good, even if one barely enters Chaohuang Academy, it is just a stepping stone for others to climb up.

But no matter what the result is, the first step is to enter Chaohuang Academy first.As a concubine, she doesn't have this qualification, let alone.The remaining five prostitutes, except for Ye Wanfu who has a beautiful face, all of them have the ability to enter the academy.

Losing one, the old lady feels distressed.

The draft of Chaohuang Academy is very important to the ladies of the Ye family and even the entire Daqian dynasty.The three ivory-carved bamboo plaques that Ye Muxi obtained are also the basis for her to settle down in Ye Mansion.

It was expected by Ye Muxi that the old lady cared so much about the academy's assessment, but after being reborn to this day, she finally has a little bit of self-protection power.
