After being imprisoned in a women's prison for five years, I became a master of both medicine a

The group arrived at the small hall and took their seats, where eight maids served tea.

Now that Rong Momo had completely relaxed, she looked at Ye Tianfeng with a sorrowful expression.

"I have been living in seclusion all these years, and I was unable to react in time to such a major event in the Ye family. Please forgive me, Elder Ye."

"It's alright. Don't think it's just you. The enemy's tactic of slowly boiling the frog is too vicious. Even I thought the eldest and third brothers died by accident back then."

At this point, Ye Tianfeng looked at Rong Momo with some emotion.

"It's been almost twenty years since we parted ways; we've both grown old!"

"That's right, we're all getting old, it's the young people's world now."

Granny Rong looked at Ye Chen with a face full of satisfaction.

Ye Chen was still processing why the Hundred Flowers Society had suddenly recognized him as their master.

He was filled with doubt upon hearing their conversation.

"Wait, Grandpa, you and this Grandma Rong met twenty years ago?"

Rong Mama hurriedly said, "Young Master, you flatter this old servant. Just call me Rong Mama. I came to the Ye family with the former chairman twenty years ago, so I naturally met Elder Ye."

"oh."

Ye Chen nodded slightly. Twenty years ago, the Hundred Flowers Gathering was a behemoth among the top three in the Great Xia Dynasty, and at that time, the Ye family was the number one war god family. It was normal for them to have some interaction.

Seeing his understanding expression, Ye Tianfeng and Rong Mama both breathed a sigh of relief.

Not only had Rong Momo met Ye Tianfeng, but she was also very familiar with him.

This is because Jiang Ziyue and Ye Chen's mother, Feng Lingxi, are close friends who can talk about anything.

However, before they left, they both agreed not to reveal their whereabouts to Ye Chen until he reached the Nascent Soul Realm.

Then, Rong Momo got up and knelt down in front of Ye Chen again, her tone extremely solemn.

"This old servant, Rong Ying, humbly requests Young Master Ye to take charge of the Hundred Flowers Society and restore its former glory."

Seeing that Ye Chen did not immediately agree, Ye Tianfeng smiled and said.

"I think you can give it a try. The Hundred Flowers Society has a huge number of people, including high-ranking officials, nobles, peddlers and laborers. But you can still trust Rong Momo."

At the same time, Ye Chen also figured it out.

He has not yet fully integrated Lingxiao Pavilion, and the Ye family is currently weak and isolated. With the help of the powerful Baihua Society, he will be much more at ease dealing with the Ye family's enemies.

Thinking of this, he stepped forward and helped Rong Momo up.

"Since you trust me, I will give it a try. However, I am still in a state of mental dementia, so I may not be able to participate much in the affairs of the Hundred Flowers Society."

"It's alright, just leave the daily tasks to this old servant."

The middle-aged beauty Wu Mei smiled and said, "The Hundred Flowers Society has a backbone, and everyone is very motivated. They will definitely have no problem handling daily chores."

After saying that, she looked at Nangong Qian.

"Qianqian, I hereby officially appoint you as the leader of the Jiangcheng branch of the Hundred Flowers Society. From now on, you will follow the young master and be responsible for his communication with the higher-ups of the Hundred Flowers Society."

Furthermore, the young master's current condition makes it difficult for him to act. You must protect the young master closely and fulfill any of his needs, understand?

When she spoke, she emphasized the words "any need".

Nangong Qian felt both joy and extreme shyness.

Any needs?

If Ye Chen had those kinds of needs, would she have to satisfy them? But if Ye Chen really had those needs, she would be very willing. After all, what woman wouldn't be tempted by such a perfect man?

Of course, her primary feeling at that moment was happiness.

After joining the Hundred Flowers Society, she worked hard for six years, but only became a minor hall master.

On the very day she latched onto Ye Chen's coattails, she rose like a rocket, instantly becoming a captain, and a captain serving right next to the young master.

This opportunity is simply incredible!

After drinking the tea offered by Rong Momo, Ye Chen became the true master of the Hundred Flowers Gathering.

At this moment, Ye Tianfeng spoke up and asked a question.

"Grandson, did you get any information from Blood Shadow and those people from the Cherry Blossom Kingdom?"

"A considerable harvest."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, and then explained in detail the name of Grand Tutor Yan, the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs' infiltration plan in Great Xia, and the matter of the Truth Cult.

"Grand Tutor Yan! I never expected that the enemy in the Ziwei War Zone would be him. This old fellow has been hiding his true intentions well; even I never suspected him."

Ye Tianfeng's expression was gloomy as he continued his analysis.

"However, a mere Grand Tutor probably wouldn't dare to take action against the Ye family. He must have a master above him instructing him."

The Grand Tutor was the highest-ranking official in the Great Xia Dynasty, and only Ye Tianfeng referred to him as a nobody.

Jin Daorong was quite familiar with Longdu. After a moment's thought, he said with a somewhat solemn expression.

"There are only a handful of people left in the Great Xia who can make Grand Tutor Yan a dog. The most likely candidate is a powerful figure in the royal family."

Ye Chen snorted coldly, "So what if they're royalty? All enemies who target my Ye family will be eliminated."

Ye Tianfeng asked suspiciously, "Old Jin, do you think it's possible that the Empress Dowager Long is behind this? After all, our Ye family is powerful, and the old Dragon Lord spent a lot of time trying to weaken us before he died."

After stroking his goatee and pondering for a moment, Kim Do-young slowly shook his head.

"Probably not. I know Empress Dowager Long quite well. This woman is skilled in political intrigue and scheming. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to protect her infant son's throne three years ago after the previous Dragon Lord died suddenly."

Moreover, the Ye family is the pillar of the southeast of Great Xia, known as the "Pillar of the East Sea," and with her wisdom, she would not do anything to destroy her own Great Wall.

At most, she adopted a wait-and-see attitude when those people made their move, but she probably didn't expect them to go so ruthlessly.

Ye Chen had heard of Empress Dowager Long five years ago.

However, at that time, the people of Daxia remembered her not only because she married the former Dragon Lord at the age of twenty, but also because she was known as the most beautiful woman in Daxia.

If you do the math, five years have passed, and she's only twenty-five now.

Next, the group discussed several suspects, but due to a lack of substantial evidence, they were unable to determine the ultimate mastermind.

Ye Tianfeng looked north, pondered for a long time, and then murmured to himself.

"It seems I, the old man, have to make a trip to Longdu to visit some old friends and see if I can find any clues."

"And incidentally, they can also plead poverty in front of the Empress Dowager, hoping to gain some benefits for the Ye family."

Although the Ye family is now in ruins, it remains the spiritual leader of the major families in the Azure Dragon War Zone of the Eastern Xia Dynasty and the Southeast Coast.

Even if it was just to appease people, Empress Dowager Long would still try to reassure Ye Tianfeng.

Ye Chen asked with some concern, "Grandpa, isn't it dangerous for you to travel north at this time?"

After all, the Ye family's enemies were ruthless and vicious, and he feared that they might send experts to intercept and kill Ye Tianfeng on his way north.

Ye Tianfeng had already considered this issue.

He chuckled. "I was a little worried before tonight's assassination attempt, but I have no worries now."

Seeing Ye Tianfeng's sly smile, Ye Chen, with his intelligence, immediately guessed his plan.

"Grandpa, do you want to bring tonight's events into the open and let the whole of Daxia know that someone is plotting against the Ye family? That way, Grand Tutor Yan and the people behind him will have something to think about."

"That's right, I've decided that a month from now, we'll carry the coffin north to let the Empress Dowager and the Dragon Lord decide things for my Ye family."

As the group was talking, someone suddenly came to report.

"Mr. Ye, young master, Captain Sun Quan from the Public Security Bureau has arrived. He said he received a report that something was amiss with the Ye family, so he brought his men over."

Ye Tianfeng smiled slightly upon hearing this.

"The opportunity to make a big fuss has come! Lao Jin, hurry up and get me a makeover."
