Ye Mingze was beaten, and half of his face quickly became red and swollen.

The slap finally made him sober up and realize what he had just said.

His face turned white directly, and he knelt down in a panic: "Dad! I was wrong! I—I just lost my words—"

"Get out!" Ye Heng drank vigorously.

Ye Mingze didn't dare to say another word, so he hurriedly got up and hurriedly exited the room.

Bang!

Ye Heng swept the things on the table to the ground, and the anger in his heart was still unsubsidy.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "Someone! ”

The butler who was guarding the door immediately walked in, and when he saw the mess all over the place, his eyebrows jumped.

The master has always been strict with the second young master, and the father and son have quarreled a lot over the years, but this is the first time that the master has been so angry.

I really don't know what mistake the second young master made to provoke the old master to be like this......

Ye Heng said angrily: "From today onwards, look at Ming Ze!" Except for food delivery, no one else is allowed to contact him without my permission! ”

The housekeeper looked up in astonishment: "Master? Isn't this punishment too severe...... Isn't it okay for the eldest lady? ”

"You don't understand?" Ye Heng interrupted him abruptly, "Since he doesn't want to go back to China to study, then stay at home!" Don't go anywhere! ”

The housekeeper said again and again: "Yes! Be! ”

……

In the dead of night, the evening breeze stirs the branches and leaves, and finally dissipates a little of the midsummer heat.

The lamp is like a bean, outlining a thin and slender figure on the window.

Ye Yunfeng glanced over there, and while packing up his things, he asked:

"Hey, third brother, since she came back, Sister Ah has been staying in her room, what's wrong with her?"

Ye Jingyan shook his head: "I don't know, I should be thinking about things." ”

Sister Ah doesn't seem to pay much attention to anything on weekdays, and only when she encounters some very critical nodes, will she sit quietly alone like now.

Ye Yunfeng was a little puzzled: "I know, but what happened today?" Is it worth it? ”

Whether it is a polo match or Han Yao of the Han family, it is not worth spending a little more distraction on being a sister.

Ye Jingyan had a faint guess in his heart: "Maybe...... It is related to the prince of Dingbei Hou. ”

"Really?" Ye Yunfeng pulled a chair and sat over, "But Sister Ah just rode in the same carriage with him, and Xiao Wu is also there." ”

He just couldn't figure it out.

Ye Jingyan glanced at him lightly, not expecting him to help come up with an answer.

After all, this kid is very grateful when he mentions that person now.

A bow really sent to his heart.

"That's it, don't bother Sister, if she wants to tell us, she will speak."

……

Ye Chutang sat behind the table, his expression calm.

The dossier of Dali Temple kept appearing repeatedly in her mind, every page, every line, was clear.

It is clearly written that the battle of Tongtianguan back then was indeed because of Huo Yucheng's misjudgment and insistence on marching, which led to the final consequences.

The chain of evidence is complete, and the testimony of witnesses is consistent.

Whoever looks at it, this case will definitely be sentenced to Huo Yucheng's head.

It seems not difficult to understand that Emperor Mu Wu was angry and beheaded the Huo family, and therefore became angry with Ye Zheng, who interceded for him.

Ye Chutang closed his eyes.

Speaking of which, Ye Zheng and Huo Yucheng are not familiar with each other.

The two of them, one of them has been fighting on the battlefield all the year round, with outstanding military achievements, and the other was born in the imperial examination, and they have become the Langzhong of the Criminal Department step by step.

To put it mildly, the most intersection between them may be the days when Huo Yucheng was escorted back to Beijing and interrogated in prison.

Suddenly, Ye Chutang opened his eyes, his eyebrows slightly condensed.

For no reason, my father naturally wouldn't gamble on his career, and he would have to intercede for such a person.

What's going on here?

The interrogation records in the file don't show any clues, and everything points to Huo Yucheng, who caused this disaster.

But it's too clear, it's too smooth, and it's suspicious.

How can everything be so coincidental?

It's like ...... Someone wrote a notebook, and then let these people take turns on the stage and perform a wonderful show.

Ye Chutang spread out the rice paper and lifted the pen and ink.

The handwriting on the paper was in rows, but it was not the beautiful hairpin small block she was used to before, but the cursive script with a strong pen and a silver hook and iron drawing.

……

Following.

Ye Jingyan and Ye Yunfeng went to Guozijian early in the morning, and at the same time, Ye Chutang also heard the news that Ye Mingze was under house arrest again.

This was actually expected, the only thing that surprised her was that this time even Ye Shixian couldn't visit him at will.

"Is he provoking the second uncle angry?" Ye Chutang casually rewarded a silver ingot from the sweeping maid, "I still thought that the second uncle had already seen the wine sacrifice lord yesterday, and today he may let Ming Ze and Ah Yan and Ah Feng go together." ”

The maid smiled and blessed her body, looked left and right, and then said with her eyebrows fluttering: "It's not! Second Miss, you don't know how angry the old man was yesterday! It's even worse than the last time the second young master was sent back by the teaching assistant! ”

After Ye Chutang and the others returned to Beijing, they offered not to match those maids and servants who were close to them, and only a few rough maids came a few times on weekdays.

These subordinates looked down on them at first, and they always didn't have a good face when they came to do things, but later found that Ye Chutang was very generous, and his temper was gentle and gentle, so he gradually liked to come here to work.

In addition, Ye Chutang now has the support of the eldest princess, and Ye Yunfeng has won the first place in the polo match, which is quite appreciated by His Majesty, and everyone's attitude towards them has naturally taken a 180-degree turn.

Ye Chutang just asked casually, and the maid was eager to reveal all the news she knew.

"So?" Ye Chutang was surprised, and shook his head lightly, "They are all father and son, why do you need to make such a fuss." ”

The maid whispered: "Don't persuade me, the master is angry now, and he won't listen to anyone." ”

Of course Ye Chutang didn't have this plan.

She just felt that it was a little strange for Ye Heng to do this suddenly.

He also went to see the Lord of the Wine Sacrifice yesterday, and he knew that it was all for Ye Mingze, but overnight, he directly locked Ye Mingze.

Maybe...... Should I go to Ye Mingze and ask?

"Second Miss?"

The little guy trotted in from outside,

"You've got a visitor!"

Ye Chutang gave Xiao Wu a hand to shake the fan: "Distinguished guest? ”

The little guy smiled earnestly: "It's Han Gongzi!" He made a special trip to visit you! ”

……

When Ye Chutang came to the front hall, Han Yao was already there.

Seeing Ye Chutang, he immediately got up.

"Miss Ye Er."

Xu is because of the taboo of the eldest princess, and he is now much more polite and respectful to Ye Chutang.

The corners of Ye Chutang's lips are slightly curved.

"Han Gongzi is here, and he is not welcomed."

Han Yao shook his head, only to feel that her smile, as if everything around her instantly lost color.

"Where, it should have been me-"

Ye Chutang said warmly:

"Lord Han has been suspended now, it is a time when he is in a hurry, and Han Gongzi can still find time to come here, which is really a good thought."
