Film and Television: Immortality Begins in the Kingdom of Qing

Clang.

Ye Wan threw down his knife, glanced at the guards beside him, and pondered something.

"Sir, it seems the problem isn't with him; he probably just happened to bring about this situation."

Ye Wan nodded, and his mind instantly cleared.

“I just thought about what my little sister said, and I’m afraid the real problem lies with the person Li Chengze invited last night. He said that we can’t afford to offend him.”

Having ruled out all possibilities, what remains is the final truth!

But they had no clue where to find this person.

Ye Wan was momentarily disoriented, and was so anxious he almost lost his temper.

"Grandpa, do you think it's possible that this kid is actually pretending to be stupid, and the real mastermind is his father?"

In the military, interrogating prisoners is a rigorous practice; who but a blood relative could withstand it?

"Makes sense!"

A glint of light flashed in Ye Wan's eyes. Even the slightest hope was still hope.

Guo Baokun, who had almost died, regained his energy upon hearing this.

"Ye Wan, you idiot! I told you I did this all by myself. If you can't find out who was there last night, why are you going to my dad for help?!"

The moment his father was mentioned, Guo Baokun's intelligence instantly came online.

"Then tell me, besides Li Chengqian and Li Hongcheng, who else was there last night?"

"A man and a woman, I don't know them."

"I think you're just trying to cover for someone!"

Ye Wan drew out a new fire knife and swung it once.

Who knew?

Guo Baokun remained silent and endured it all.

"If you're so capable, then kill me. I'm not afraid of death. Why would I seek death to cover something up?"

Ye Wan threw down his fire knife and coldly shouted:

"Let's go! Let's find that old scoundrel."

Guo Baokun was on the verge of tears, thinking, "I was telling the truth!"

As soon as Ye Wan stepped out of the house, he felt a blinding ray of sunlight. Instead of dispelling the gloom in his heart, it made him even more anxious.

Oh no, it's already noon! Are we going to have to perform the Twelve Hours of the Southern Dynasty?

The thought of his elderly father's uncertain fate filled him with anxiety.

Just then, a gatekeeper servant rushed over in a panic.

“Sir, the Minister of Rites has come to our door and wants us to return his son, Guo Baokun.”

Ye Wan gave a cold laugh.

“Old man, I didn’t even look for him, but he came to me.”

After saying that, he strode out and charged.

When Ye Wan arrived in the lobby, he immediately saw Guo Youzhi sitting upright.

"As expected of one of the six ministers of our Southern Qing, he can still remain calm and composed even at a time like this."

Guo Youzhi, who had intended to put on a show, forced himself to remain calm upon hearing this.

"I have come and investigated thoroughly; it is indeed my son's fault in this matter."

But in the end, the person involved in the conflict had absolutely nothing to do with our Guo family or the Crown Prince!

Ye Wan was taken aback and subconsciously glanced at the guards beside him.

This matches the first piece of news; it seems Guo Baokun suffered those two blows for nothing.

"Then can you find out who it is?"

"Release my son first!"

"Impossible. This couldn't have happened without him."

Seeing that the situation was about to reach a stalemate, Guo Youzhi sighed and took the initiative to back down. He couldn't afford to offend the Ye family; didn't he see that the guards were holding knives?

"I learned from the Crown Prince that there are only two ways to meet this person."

The first option was the Emperor's permission, and the second was Princess Li Yunrui; there was no other way.

Your Majesty, I'm sure you've already tried, so only the Eldest Princess is an option. I want to go alone, but I can't persuade her.

Therefore, I have come to your Ye residence.

Ye Wan immediately understood the situation, grabbed Guo Youzhi, and rushed outside.

"Slow down, what kind of movement is that? It's uncivilized and improper."

"Shut up, you old fool. You don't know that my sister learned from the King of Wei that this matter needs to be addressed as soon as possible."

Otherwise, my father's life will be in danger. If anything happens to him, I will make your entire Guo family pay with their lives!

Such menacing words once again shattered Guo Youzhi's preconceived notions.

Is Ye Zhong's life in danger?

Is the situation that serious?

……

While turmoil raged outside the palace, Li Chengxian found himself in the dungeon of Yuntian Palace.

Looking at Ye Zhong, whose collarbones were locked and who was hanging down, he said with amusement:

"As expected of a powerful general from Nanqing, he can remain silent even in this state."

Ye Zhong raised his head and stared intently at Li Chengxian through his disheveled hair, trying to get a clear look at his appearance.

"I have never seen you before. Who are you?"

"Who am I? The eldest prince of Emperor Qing."

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhong was slightly excited.

So much so that the chains rattled and jingled.

"Impossible. I have met the First Prince, Li Chengmin."

"Who says he's necessarily the biggest one?"

hiss.

Ye Zhong couldn't help but gasp.

Deep down, he knew this probably involved some royal secrets.

Anyone who dares to come into contact with this could potentially have their entire family executed.

He fell silent instantly.

"You don't dare to listen?" Li Chengxian was amused by the other party's cautiousness.

"You're not very brave to listen to someone who dares to disregard even imperial authority."

Ye Zhong snorted coldly.

He knew that, in some respects, the Ye family had indeed neglected imperial power.

The most obvious example is that he always refers to Li Chengze by name, but does not respectfully address him by his royal title, and the same goes for his own son.

Furthermore, given his own daughter's capricious nature, Li Chengze has likely suffered quite a bit.

"Alright, I came here to see if you're dead yet. You're pretty resilient."

The feeling of sword energy entering the body is far more excruciating than having one's collarbone pierced.

Ye Zhong was instantly moved.

He thought of Li Chengxian's formidable strength. What if the other party's target was the Ye family?

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Ye Zhong's voice grew increasingly hoarse.

Li Chengxian turned around and said calmly:

"I'll ask, you answer."

"it is good."

"Did the Crown Prince get involved?"

"He was unaware of it. It was my momentary greed that led me to try to curry favor with him and have my cake and eat it too. I never expected things to turn out so badly."

"It really was that idiot Guo Baokun who caused this mess."

Li Chengxian couldn't help but laugh. Tianquan had checked the news early in the morning, and he and Emperor Qing had both included the unlucky Li Chengqian in their calculations, even though they were completely confused.

What kind of alcohol does your daughter like to drink?

"Huh?" Ye Zhong was stunned.

Why did the question come to my own daughter?

"Peach blossom wine made with Jiangnan Zhuyeqing liquor."

"Knowing what's good for you is much better than those stubborn old guys."

Ye Zhong gave a self-deprecating, silent laugh.

"It's hard to be a powerful minister, and it's even harder to be the head of a family. I can be tough, but my family and business are so big that I can't be too tough."

Li Chengxian understood why Ye Zhong said that.
