Helianjing was so angry after listening to Ye Jiayao's story that he really wanted to go find Xia Chunyu right now and beat him up, but that didn't work. He had more important things to do now.
He immediately took people to find Lu Xiaotian's servant and the failed scholar who specialized in writing letters for others.
Ye Jiayao took Ping An to Wei's house.
The carriage stopped not far from Wei's house, and Ping An came to the door. A family member who claimed to be Alian called Alian out.
Ah Lian was slightly panicked when she saw that the person looking for her was the eldest lady.
Ye Jiayao looked at her with a heavy gaze: "Alian, you know what kind of person the second lady is. The more secrets you know, the less safe you are. I can promise you now that if you tell me everything you know, then , I will get back the deed of sale for you, set you free, and give you a sum of money, enough for you to have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life. Of course, even if you don't tell me, I have other ways to know the truth, but I am very tired now, I don’t want to go to so much trouble, you only have one chance, you have to decide what to do.”
Ah Lian hesitated for a long time, her expression gradually became firm, and she said: "The second young lady returned to Yangzhou that day. While waiting for the ship to sail, Princess Liuli came. Princess Liuli asked the second young lady to help her deal with you. The advantage is that the second uncle can come back safely. Later, the second young lady and Princess Liuli kept in contact, and it seemed that even the third young lady was colluding with the second young lady. I only heard about it in bits and pieces, but I don’t know what they were going to do."
Ye Jiayao closed her eyes for a long time and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes, her eyes were clear.
I see…
"Alian, I still want you to go back to Miss Second and be patient for a while longer. My promise will definitely be fulfilled."
After meeting Alian, Ye Jiayao went to meet Xiaojing again and asked Ping An to go to Renhe Hall to tell Song Qi. Fortunately, Xiao Jing acted quickly, and the two of them were caught before they had time to escape.
Under Xiao Jing's intimidation, both of them confessed the whole story.
According to their description, the person who contacted them was the eunuch named Xiaoluzi who had instigated Zhu Wang's wife, and he was from Liuli.
"Yao Yao, I will accompany you to the Hou Mansion now." He Lianjing felt distressed and angry at the same time. Yaoyao had suffered such great injustice and was framed, but Brother Chunyu actually believed other people's lies.
Ye Jiayao said calmly: "Come back tomorrow morning and bring these two people with you."
Now when people are brought to Chunyu, Chunyu may not believe that she has a better way.
Liuli, let’s make an end between you and me today.
Back at the Hou Mansion, Song Qi and Qiao Xi were waiting for her at the door.
"How is Shopkeeper Lu?"
Song Qi replied: "Two of his ribs are broken, and there are serious internal injuries, but his life is safe. I'm afraid he will have to recover for several months."
Qiao Xi said: "Now Madam Lu has brought people to carry Shopkeeper Lu back. I told her to give her an explanation."
Ye Jiayao nodded: "You did a good job."
Now, she will go in to find Chunyu and uncover the conspiracy.
Entering the yard, I saw Xiangtao, Yingying and others standing in the yard, each with angry faces and staring at the door with tearful eyes.
Seeing Ye Jiayao come back, Xiangtao angrily pointed at the door and complained: "Second Young Mistress, Third Young Lady is seducing the Prince."
Qiao Xi's expression changed and she shouted angrily: "Are you all dead? Just let that bastard do what you want?"
Xiangtao cried: "I was kicked out by the prince. The prince was drunk, and he treated the third lady as the second young mistress!"
Ye Jiayao said expressionlessly: "Song Qi, kick in the door, tie up the third lady, and lock her in the woodshed."
Song Qi already had a general idea from Ping'an, and he himself also noticed that besides something was wrong, it was very strange for the prince to suddenly appear in the Chamber of Commerce today.
He immediately accepted the order, stepped forward and kicked open the door, and Ye Jiayao walked in.
I saw two people entangled together on the bed, their clothes were messy and unsightly.
"Ah..." Jinyao screamed in fright when she saw someone breaking in.
Xia Chunyu's confusion was startled by the movement, and most of his drunkenness dissipated immediately. Only then did he see the face of the person under him. It turned out to be Jinyao. He was so frightened that he immediately rolled out of bed.
Ye Jiayao stared at the two people coldly and said coldly: "Song Qi, why don't you take action?"
Song Qi had no sympathy for such shameless people, so he stepped forward and pulled Jin Yao down.
"Sister, what are you going to do? Brother-in-law, help me..."
Jinyao panicked. Her clothes fell apart, revealing a large area of white tender flesh on her chest. It was exposed to another man's sight, making her want to hit the wall in shame and anger.
Xia Chunyu woke up completely, but he couldn't remember how he and Jin Yao ended up together. However, you don’t need to think about it to know that you must have been so drunk that you mistook Jin Yao for Yao Yao.
"Song Qi, let her go." Xia Chunyu said coldly, it was his fault and it had nothing to do with Jin Yao.
Song Qidao: "Master, I can't listen to you on this matter."
Xia Chunyu was furious: "Bold, who is your master?"
Song Qi was not afraid at all: "Master, you have also been plotted."
Ye Jiayao looked away, not wanting to see Chunyu's disheveled appearance, and said, "If you want to know the truth, put on your clothes and follow me."
"Brother-in-law, save me..." Jinyao asked for help in fear. This was not the plan. She had not really succeeded yet.
Song Qi casually pulled a piece of cloth and stuffed it into her mouth, and said scornfully: "You only know how to call for help now. It's too late. It's not a human thing. It will even harm your own eldest sister."
Jinyao whined, speechless, and unable to break free.
Xia Chunyu watched Jinyao being dragged out by Song Qi, and thinking about the truth Yaoyao told her, he couldn't care less and quickly changed his clothes.
Damn it, thinking about how intimate he was with another woman just now, he wanted to peel off this skin.
As soon as I left the yard, Xia Chunfeng walked towards me.
"Second brother, why did you call me here?"
Xia Chunfeng was discussing something with some colleagues in the outer study. Hearing that his second brother was in a hurry to find him, he hurriedly saw off the guests and rushed over.
Ye Jiayao said: "I'm looking for you. Today, I want to invite you to witness something together."
"What's going on?" Seeing his second sister-in-law being so serious, Xia Chunfeng smiled unnaturally.
Ye Jiayao said calmly: "You will know when the time comes, but I still need your cooperation."
Xia Chunfeng felt uneasy. Seeing that his second brother was also solemn and silent, he guessed that Liuli had caused trouble again. But, what exactly did Liuli do? I made my second brother and sister-in-law so angry.
Ye Jiayao walked straight to Liuli's room alone and kicked the door open with a bang.
Liuli was embroidering, and when she saw Ye Jiayao coming in angrily, she was not afraid and signaled Xiaoya to go out and watch.
There was no one else in the room, so Liuli said calmly: "Second sister-in-law is so rude. Don't you know you have to knock before entering?"
If the gaze has substance, then Ye Jiayao's gaze is enough to pierce Liuli with holes. She had never hated Liuli, just disgusted her, but now, she really hated this person.
"You've hurt me so badly and you still want me to be polite to you?" Ye Jiayao gritted her teeth.
Liuli sneered and said, "What did the second sister-in-law say? Why can't I understand?"
"Liu Li, you don't have to be pretentious anymore. If you don't want others to know, you can't do anything but yourself. You and Jinrong Jinyao collude to harm me. Do you think I don't know?"
"Second sister-in-law, if you say this, you must have evidence, and you can't spit on others with blood!"
"You just deceived me and couldn't produce any evidence, but God has eyes and you will get retribution."
Liuli sneered lightly: "Second sister-in-law is talking crazy things today. How could I have harmed you? Why didn't I know?"
Ye Jiayao glared at her: "That night, Mrs. Zhou, you must have called me here. She deliberately said she wanted to play cards and took me out of the room so that Jinyao could stuff notes into my lecture book. Also, that You must have asked someone to imitate Lu Xiaotian's handwriting to write this note! Today, you bribed people around Lu Xiaotian to drug me and Lu Xiaotian. You dare to swear that you didn't do any of this. You dare to swear, If you did it, you would have no children or grandchildren in your life and would never be qualified to be a mother. Do you dare?"
Liuli's face changed, she was silent for a long time, then she chuckled and said in a manly voice: "You asked me to swear, so I swear? Why should I listen to you? Yes, I did it, what can you do to me? Can you provide evidence? Do you think Chunyu will still believe you to this day? Ye Jinxuan, look how pathetic you are, being plotted against by your own sister over and over again, haha, you treat a wolf by your side like a sheep, If you’re to blame, blame yourself for not having eyes.”
The girl outside had already been gagged and escorted out by the maid brought by Qiao Xi. Outside the door, only two brothers, Xia Chunyu and Xia Chunfeng, were left.
As soon as Liuli said this, the two brothers looked at each other. Xia Chunyu's heart was even more furious. It turned out that Liuli had set up all this, and he actually believed it...
"Pop" a loud slap came from inside.
"You...you dare to hit me?" Liuli covered her face and looked at the attacker in disbelief.
Ye Jiayao sneered: "Why don't I dare to slap you? This slap is to slap you for your dirty thoughts. As a noble princess, you are doing despicable things."
"Ye Jinxuan, you bastard, you deceive me..."
"So what if I bully you? You made me lose Chunyu. I wish I could beat you to death." Ye Jiayao said angrily.
"Who harmed whom? If it weren't for you, I would be the one marrying Chunyu now. It was you who hurt me so miserably. I wish you died..." Liuli roared angrily, regardless of whether anyone outside could hear her.
"Pa", Ye Jiayao raised her hand and slapped her again. She moved so fast that Liuli had no time to hide.
"This slap is for Chunfeng. There is someone who likes you, but you don't know how to cherish it, and you are still thinking about other men. Where do you put Chunfeng?"
"Ye Jinxuan, I'll fight with you." Being slapped twice in a row was an unprecedented shame and humiliation for Liuli. She had grown up and no one had touched her finger, but she was the one who was the most humiliated. The hater was slapped twice.
Liuli lost her mind and rushed towards Ye Jiayao like a madman to fight.
