Chapter 25. Leaving the Ye Family (Please read on!)
The court has rules.

Although merchants do not have a high status, they are still protected by laws and regulations in order to prosper the economy.

Although Ye Bonan led his men to rebel against the Ye family, which was despised by the righteous, the Ye family could not use underworld means except for revenge in business.

Otherwise, it will surely incur the wrath of the court.

But some rules are just words on a piece of paper.

The Great Qi State had been established for more than a thousand years, but due to corruption from top to bottom, many government orders had become empty words.

But not as a last resort.

Liu Qingmei didn't want to use force and go to extremes.

and so.

She decided to take Ning Mu and Ye Yutan with her to find Ye Bonan and ask for an explanation.

"Aunt, Ye Bonan and his men have already joined the Lieyang Sect of Huiling Mountain. There is a powerful master of the Divine Origin Realm in the Lieyang Sect. I'm afraid we can't save our trip..."

noon.

On the way to Ye Bonan’s residence.

The three of them rode together in a spacious carriage.

Shaky.

Ning Mu felt very embarrassed.

Just at the critical moment, Liu Qingmei suddenly rushed in, even holding his clothes in her hands.

"It's urgent. Come with me quickly."

Ning Mu looked helpless.

Master.

It’s going to kill someone!
Do this several times.

How can I let you enjoy happiness in the future!

But seeing Liu Qingmei's anxious look,

Liu Qingmei was also extremely embarrassed.

Listening to Ye Yutan's words absent-mindedly, she secretly glanced at Ning Mu, her eyes fixed on the hem of her skirt, with annoyance and helplessness flashing in her eyes.

Brat!
I am getting bolder and bolder!
She waved her hands, coughed lightly, and pretended to be calm: "It's okay, let's try it out first. Old Ye is a member of the Ye family. He will always return to his roots. He won't do this. He must have some difficulties!"

Ning Mu listened to the conversation between the two along the way.

Probably know what happened.

But he didn't care.

What he is concerned about now is whether the dungeon of the Ye family mansion is reliable or not.

Will the unconscious Bodhisattva Xiaoman be rescued from inside?
……

Not long after.

The two-headed carriage stopped in front of a luxurious mansion in Zhuzifang, East Street, a prosperous area in the east of Yonghang City.

"Do you three have visiting cards?"

As soon as the three got off the carriage, Menzi came over on his own initiative, but his attitude was very arrogant.

Liu Qingmei frowned.

It seems that Ye Bonan is determined to leave the Ye family and set up his own business!

I come in person but still need a visiting card?
It’s obvious at first glance that this guy is an old servant of the Ye family. There’s no way he doesn’t recognize me.

Even if he didn't know me, Ye Yutan was very familiar with Ye Bonan. How could the servants in Ye Bonan's mansion not know him?

"How dare you! The wife of the head of the Ye family is here in person, why don't you call out your master to come and receive him personally?"

Ye Yutan opened his mouth hurriedly and scolded angrily.

"Oh...it's Mrs. Ye!"

The doorman spoke in a long voice, with a weird look on his face. He folded his hands, looked at Liu Qingmei and the other two with a fake smile, shrugged, and said, "I'm sorry, my master said that if it's a woman from the Liu family of Liutang County, the door will be open to welcome you, but if it's Madam Ye, then I'm sorry, you can't enter!"

Menzi's expression was very arrogant.

There is a feeling of a villain succeeding.

These words immediately made Ye Yutan furious.

Even Ning Mu frowned slightly, looking unsightly.

Ye Yutan was extremely angry. As the young master of the Ye family, how could he have ever been looked down upon like this?
What's more, he is a servant who is worse than pigs and dogs.

The main reason for his anger was that his young aunt had always been an insignificant and inviolable existence in his heart.

Now a mere ant-like villain dared to ridicule him like this. How could he not be angry!
Ye Yutan was about to take action and teach this blind servant a lesson.

At this time.

Liu Qingmei, with a gloomy face, reached out to stop him.

These words were not something this guy could say. Every word he said was very precise and it was obvious that someone was teaching him behind the scenes.

Liu Qingmei narrowed her eyes and said coldly: "Go and report it!"

Menzi grinned, said nothing, just turned half sideways and made a gesture of invitation.

Liu Qingmei frowned.

At this time.

The door is open.

After a slight hesitation, Liu Qingmei took the lead and led Ning Mu and Ye Yutan into the room.

According to regulations.

There can be no threshold in Ye Bonan’s residence.

But at this moment the threshold is more than three feet high!
A wealthy and powerful family.

The higher the threshold, the more majestic the mansion, and the longer the inheritance.

Cross the threshold.

Liu Qingmei's expression became increasingly gloomy.

soon.

The three were led into the main hall.

I saw an old man with white hair and beard but a ruddy face, wearing a long gown with golden threads, sitting upright in the upper seat, holding a cup of tea in his hand, sipping it leisurely.

The three people entered the hall, but he ignored them, as if he didn't see them.

This arrogant attitude immediately made Ye Yutan unhappy.

"Ye Bonan, you are so bold, you dare to be so arrogant when you see the master's wife?"

Ye Yutan roared angrily.

"Little brother, you are joking. I am dazzled. In this room, besides you and me, there are three...four people. How can there be any lady of the master's family?"

At this time, Ye Bonan raised his eyes, calmly put down the teacup, and said with a calm smile: "I am here to wait for Grandmaster Liang Zhengang of Lieyang Sect to discuss important matters with him. You are rude to intrude, but you blame me for not knowing etiquette. This is unreasonable!"

"Besides, I have already said that the daughter of the Liu family is welcome to visit me, and the rest of you shall remain in the room."

"Why, you three don't know?"

As he spoke, there was a hint of sarcasm and threat in Ye Bonan's turbid old eyes, and he looked at Liu Qingmei indifferently.

He wanted to see how the lady of the host family would respond!

kill?
What kind of world is this? Can killing solve problems?

Besides, he had already said that Liang Zhengang from the Lieyang Sect would be arriving soon. Even if Liu Qingmei had the courage, would she dare to offend the sect that had powerful real people and kill him?

Even if she dares.

The Ye family and the hundreds of disciples of Cangjian Villa, can they agree to it?
Liu Qingmei naturally heard Ye Bonan's warning.

She just waved her hand lightly, then looked at Ye Bonan calmly and said, "Old Ye, up to this moment, as a junior of the Ye family, I still respect you as an elder. If the Ye family has done anything inconsiderate or offended you, you can tell us. You need a reason to join the Lieyang Sect this time, right?"

"We are old acquaintances. Let's not beat around the bush. Give me a reasonable excuse."

Liu Qingmei sat down calmly and looked at Ye Bonan quietly.

Ning Mu stood behind her.

Ye Yutan stood in the middle, looking extremely furious.

"Why?"

"Then I will give Miss Liu a reason!"

Ye Bonan smiled desolately, and then his words became sonorous.

"We are both members of the Ye family. Just because I am from a side branch, I have to give up cultivation and enter the business world. Does this count as an excuse?"

"The silver that passes through my hands every year is over a million, and no matter how much profit I make, it all goes into someone else's vault. Does this count as an excuse?"

"You're afraid that I might steal from you, so you arranged for my clan members to keep an eye on me. Does that count as an excuse?"

"If there is no trust, why would you entrust the entire estate to me alone?"

"We are both members of the same clan. Just because I am from a branch, the woman I like has become the wife of a younger generation. Just because this younger generation inherited the clan business and is the new head of the family, does this count as an excuse?"

"I now have five sons and two daughters. I don't want them to live the same life as I did in the future. I am the only one in the clan, and I want them to be the head of the clan. Is this... a reason?"
