Chapter 3 The Ye Family's Problem
After Ye Zhentian finished telling the ins and outs of the matter, everyone fell silent.
They know that things are more difficult to solve than they think. Because the alliance formed by the four major families ten years ago led the Wu family from prosperity to decline, and even to the point of ruin. The Ye family is not the Ye family of Ye Zhentian alone, and the decision back then was also to allow the Ye family to develop better.
The Ye family was able to become the first gate valve in Yanjing City within ten years, and Ye Zhentian's contribution was indelible. Every revolution was accompanied by bloodshed and sacrifice, as was the prosperity of wealthy families. It wasn't a wise decision, but it was something that anyone in a big family would want to see.
Debts owed always have to be paid. Ten years ago, the four major families caused the decline of the Wu family, and Wu Xiao was forced to leave Huaxia, planting the seeds for this grievance. Ten years later, Ye Pu came to take revenge with Wu Xiao's long-cherished wish.
The Lin family did not hesitate to use the ultimate force Sword Emperor to put Ye Pu to death, wanting to strangle Wu Xiao's spokesperson in the cradle. Everyone knew that not only the Lin family would make a move, but after this incident, the Song family and the Guo family would also get the news, and they would all make a move.
If it was an ordinary situation, it was logical for the Ye family to make a move. However, Ye Pu has a blood relationship with the Ye family, and even he has always been valued by Ye Zhentian, the older generation of the Ye family, and is ready to use him as a candidate for the future head of the Ye family.
Ye Ziyu participated in this murder against Ye Pu, and he has been excluded from the ranks of candidates. It can be said that Ye Pu becoming the future head of the Ye family is already an ironclad thing. But he is Wu Xiao's spokesperson and is destined to be the mortal enemy of the four major families.
If you continue to value Ye Pu and make him the head of the Ye family, this matter is undoubtedly a problem for raising tigers, irresponsible for the Ye family's family business, and irresponsible for the hundreds of lives of the Ye family. But if he is excluded, then he will face his relatives who will stab him, and send another wizard in the Ye family's descendants to hell.
Even if the Ye family doesn't do anything, without the protection of the Ye family, the remaining three families will be even more unscrupulous. Ten years ago, none of the top wealthy families could fight the joint siege of the four major families, and today, ten years later, how can a mere person and the forces behind it that are not considered forces compete with the three major families? I'm afraid I'm going to be swallowed so that I don't even have a bone left, right?
What to do?
The four people present had no answer in their hearts. Endless melancholy hung over everyone's heads like a haze, overwhelming them a little.
I don't know how long it took, Ye Tiancheng, the current head of the Ye family, spoke. Ye Pu is his son, he brought it into this world, and perhaps only he has the most say now.
"I don't know how to deal with this yet?" Ye Tiancheng smiled bitterly, "But I finally understand why that kid has been refusing to set foot in our house for half a step?" He is Wu Xiao's apprentice, and he must know what happened back then. From the moment he stepped into Yanjing, he was trying to get rid of our Ye family. Father, I may not like what I say, but I hope you don't mind. ”
Ye Zhentian waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care, and motioned Ye Tiancheng with his eyes to continue.
"Our Ye family has cared very little about that kid over the years, although we have been secretly paying close attention to his movements, but we rarely reach out to help him. He was kicked out of the house at a young age and became a poor child with no support, we can't imagine how miserable he was at that time. But what we see is a man who is ten or even a hundred times more than a child of the same age. During his years at the orphanage, everything was on his own. Even if he was taken away by Wu Xiao at the age of twelve, he still relied on himself to survive today. Maybe he had already regarded himself as a fatherless and motherless orphan at a very early age, and Wu Xiao's cultivation allowed him to find the lost family affection. In his heart, he has already regarded Wu Xiao as his only relative, and now he is willing to come to take revenge with Wu Xiao's long-cherished wish. ”
"Although we didn't have much contact with him, we all knew that this kid was a man of affection and righteousness. He is not afraid of power, does not bow to others, and even spares his own life for the sake of a girl. Wu Xiao has been with him for ten years and knows his character well, so he will rest assured that he will hand over the task to this kid. He came to Yanjing but didn't recognize us, even if he explained to him, including your father and second brother, the reason why we drove him out back then, he may have forgiven us, but he still refused to step into our Ye family. I think he just wants to dissociate himself from us, and he won't be soft on us when he officially takes revenge, and he doesn't want us to hold back on him. ”
"I have always protected him in the name of my family, so that he can grow better during this time. Even when faced with a counterattack from other families, he would not be defeated so lightly. But when he first began to expand his power, he was attacked by the Lin family. Lin Qingfeng is really a cautious guy, and he wants to kill the other party without even giving that kid any chance to fight back. Could it be that he was worried about something? Ye Zhentian muttered to himself.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes tightened and they looked at each other. They knew that because of this ordinary phrase, they had grasped the most crucial clue.
"I think Lin Qingfeng is afraid that that kid will develop faster and faster under the protection of our Ye family, and at the same time, he will use the power of our Ye family to contend with them." The old Sanye Tianzhu of the Ye family said.
"The third brother is right, but I think there are other reasons." Ye Tianheng said, "The strength of the Lin family is second only to our Ye family, but although our family has a big business, how can it not compete with the three major families?" ”
"One Ye family may not be the opponent of the three major families, but what about another Ye family?"
"You mean?" Ye Tianheng asked.
"I haven't had any contact with that kid, but I've known everything about him. With his ability and those remnants of Wu Xiao's forces, it was not impossible to form a powerful family. ”
"What the third brother said makes sense, but it is unlikely to be realized. Ye Pu may form a wealthy family, but the current shape does not allow him to do so. The incident of Tong Guò basically shows an attitude of the Lin family, and this war has begun. Lin Qingfeng will not give that kid a chance to continue to develop. Ye Tiancheng replied.
"I have to say that Wu Xiao's move is very good, he carefully cultivated that kid and let him come back for revenge. Because of that boy's special relationship with us, when he is weak, whether we want to or not, he will offer asylum. Even now, don't we still do it? Lin Qingfeng sent the Sword Emperor to kill that kid, and if he succeeded, the dust would settle; failed, but it is also a warning to our Ye family, warning us not to become a realistic version of the story of the farmer and the snake. Alas......"
Ye Zhentian continued: "After discussing with you for so long, I have decided that our Ye family will make a corresponding counterattack against the Lin family, but we can't make too much noise. Tianzhu is within the scope of your ability to suppress the Lin family's talents in the military to a certain extent, putting pressure on them. Tiancheng, you are now the head of the Ye family, I will suspend your economic cooperation with the Lin family, cut off part of the Lin family's economic resources, and let them panic for a while. ”
"That kid is still in a coma, and before he wakes up, our Ye family must provide a qiē assistance. That kid's situation is very dangerous now, and he may be assassinated one after another at any time, Tianheng, you bring the bodyguards at home, mainly responsible for the safety of that kid and those around him. As for whether we should continue to do this after the kid wakes up, it depends on the kid's thoughts. After all, now we want to solve the problem only unilaterally, and I don't know what that kid thinks in his heart? ”
"Do you have any objections?"
The crowd shook their heads.
"Then it's decided. As for me? I'm going to play chess with that old guy Lin Qingfeng in two days. I haven't played against him for a long time, I just don't know if his chess skills have improved? With that, Ye Zhentian took the lead in getting up and left his study with his teacup.
This meeting came to an end, but for the Ye family's counterattack, this was just the beginning.
……
After lunch, the complexion on Nangong Siying's face was obviously much better. With Ye Yuxin, a lovely girl, she is not bored at all. But she really wanted to go to see Ye Pu, but not only did the nurse stop her, but Ye Yuxin also stopped her.
According to Ye Yuxin's words: Brother, he has been lying there all the time and won't run away, and you don't want to go to see him for a while.
Nangong Siying thought about it and felt that what Ye Yuxin said made sense, and besides, she still had a drip in her hand.
Bang bang bang.
There was a knock on the door.
The frequency is fast, and it looks like he's in a hurry.
Ye Yuxin got up and went to open the door of the room.
"Auntie?" Ye Yuxin greeted obediently.
"Hmm." Qin Kelan responded lightly, and quickly ran past Ye Yuxin's side towards her woman, Nangong Siying.
After getting the news from the Ye family, Qin Kelan rushed over non-stop. Seeing her daughter's emaciated face, Qin Kelan wanted to cry in her heartache.
"Mom, you're here." Nangong Siying said with a smile.
"Siying......" Qin Kelan hugged her daughter's thin body tightly in her arms, and at this moment, all the grievances in her heart were replaced by tears, which flowed out happily.
The sudden death of her husband hit Qin Kelan too hard and too hard, and even now, she didn't believe that he had passed away. How can a good person say that if he doesn't, it's gone?
She still feels that her husband is alive, living in her dreams, living in her heart, living in her life. Everywhere he went, he was the figure of his husband, how could he die?
It was only when she saw her husband's body lying in the ice coffin and reached out to touch the cold and breathtaking temperature that she had to believe that it was true. Whenever this time, Qin Kelan lay on the edge of the coffin and cried, fainting many times.
