Chapter 181 Love Like a Fool
Last time Ye Chen said that he didn't know why he was sent back.Now, he has the same answer.

His expression was puzzled, and it didn't look like he was pretending at all.But in my memory, I really saw his signature on the divorce letter!

It was true that Dad didn't like Ye Chen very much at the time, but it was better than when old Ye Jun and Mrs. Ye were alive, and his resistance to Ye Chen was not as deep as it was at the beginning.

The reason why he wrote the divorce letter is because he saw that I was wronged by Ye Chen, and Ye Chen still didn't come to coax me.Secondly, it was also because of the defense against the Ye family at the beginning.

My father's ideal for marrying a daughter is that I can marry high, but I must marry a family that doesn't covet anything from Lu's family like Ye Chen.

Secondly, I can also marry low.Find a family that is not as good as Lu's, but they are good-natured.In this case, with Youcheng as the backing, no one in my husband's family will dare to anger me in the future.

My father is quite open-minded and supports me not to marry, but to stay in Youcheng, and after his lifespan is over, he will become the first female lord of Youcheng.

Although the atmosphere in the underworld is much more open than that in the underworld, he is the only head of a family who is as open-minded as my father.

All the ghosts say that I am the most carefree lady from a family in the entire underworld.

The letter of resignation was originally my father's intention to intimidate Yechen, hoping to stimulate him to coax me and let us settle our suspicions.

Secondly, if it is true that the engagement is terminated because of this, my father would also like to find another good family for me.

At that time, I only knew that the betrothal gift was sent back, but I didn't know that there was a divorce certificate.At that time, I was also stupid, thinking that when I marry Ye Chen in the future, the dowry will always be carried to Ye's house with my dowry, so I didn't think about stopping my father.

now……

My mood was extremely complicated, and Ye Chen gradually realized something: "Is there a problem with the betrothal gift?"

I shook my head busy.On the first day when those things were delivered, my father opened them and checked them, and everything was first-rate and good.

"What's the matter?" Ye Chen asked again, "I've already thought about your marriage. Get married at Lu's house."

I was taken aback: "The Lu family is... gone..."

"I sent ghosts to rebuild the old site of Lu's house. In the past two days, ghosts will come to give you blueprints. You can choose as you like. If you don't like it, I'll let them change it. If you think Trouble, you city is yours right now, you can marry directly from the current city lord's mansion. The dowry will be sent there first when the time comes."

He thought of everything for me.

"Your Majesty, the ghosts from the front and back parlors are here again." Hua Kai came in to report in a state of embarrassment, if it hadn't been for the urgent urging from the front, she would not have come to bother me when I was alone with Ye Chen.

Ye Chen responded, and hugged me: "Good boy, wait for me to come back. I'll talk about it later if there's anything to do."

I watched him leave, my head in a daze.

"Get some water for me, I'll wash my face." I ordered, and soon Hualuo came in with a basin of water.

I got up and walked to the water basin. The phonograph conch was stuffed into the opening of my Qiankun bag by Wenrentan at some point, and it fell directly into the water at this moment.

The conch soaked in water slowly melted like a piece of paper, and the conversation between Mrs. Ye and Ye Chen resounded from the ripples on the water.

"Chen'er, I heard that you sent the dowry to Lu's house in Youcheng to ask for marriage?"

"Chen'er, when I sent ghosts to marry Lu's family last time, didn't they still refuse? Why did they agree this time? Could it be that they took you for that kid from Zeqiuyuan? That little bitch is your father from Youcheng brought it back!"

"But having said that, Chen'er, the ones in our pockets are ours. If Youcheng doesn't have a dowry, then it's not as good as other aristocratic families!"

"Chen'er, you still think clearly! If you marry, marry, finish the marriage as soon as possible, and mother will send a ghost to kill the old man of the Lu family!"

……

The words of Mrs. Ye and Ye Chen echoed in the bedroom verbatim, and Huakai and Hualuo's expressions changed greatly when they heard these words.

I stretched out my hand to pick up the phonograph conch, but it seemed as if I touched a piece of wet paper. As soon as I raised my hand, the conch collapsed into the water and disappeared in the water.

But the conversation between Ye Chen's mother and son became clearer.

I panicked and wanted to turn off these sounds, and angrily overturned the water basin, and the water stains spread on the ground, but the sound kept repeating in the water patterns.

I squatted down and wanted to dry the water with my sleeves, but Huahualuo wanted to come over to help, but I was all dismissed: "Everyone back off!"

Don't let others know about this!

I alone know that I can rot in my heart, but if other people know, what will they think of Ye Chen!
The more I thought about it, the more anxious I became, but the water couldn't be wiped off anyway.The conversation between the mother and the son kept echoing in my ears as if in a daze, almost driving me crazy.

I took off the whole coat to absorb water, but that coat is the ultimate magic weapon made by Ye Chen himself, it is impenetrable by water and fire, and has no effect at all.

When I got up, I wanted to take my ordinary pajamas to wipe the floor, and when I got up, I saw that the door of the bedroom was slammed open.

Ye Chen walked in anxiously, his expression also changed drastically when he heard those words in the air, and then he walked towards me with big strides.

I felt guilty, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but unexpectedly stepped on the coat I just took off as soon as I took a step!

The material of the jacket was extremely silky, and when I stepped on it, I lost my balance and fell straight down.

Ye Chen strode forward to catch me, I wanted to push him away, but he hugged me tightly: "Sheng Sheng!"

"Don't listen! Don't listen to those words!" I hurriedly covered his ears, seeing Yechen's stunned face.

But my hands were of no use, those voices were still heard clearly in Yechen's ears.

He hugged me with one hand, pulled out the other hand and swung a cloud of Yin Qi around me.After a while, the annoying sound disappeared.

He patted my back and comforted me: "It's okay, don't make any noise." Having said that, I clearly saw the dodge and guilt in his eyes.

As the person involved, just one or two words can bring back all his memories.

I have been deceiving myself and telling myself that it was faked by Wen Rentan.Seeing Ye Chen's expression now, no matter how stupid I am, I know it's true.

I didn't dare to look at him, I bent my knees and buried my head in the crook of my arms.

He lightly rubbed my head and called me: "Shengsheng..."

I didn't dare to respond, and after hearing him sigh in frustration, he said, "I'm sorry, Shengsheng."

His arms kept tightening, and he explained to me: "I never wanted to kill your father."

I was overjoyed: "Really?"

He nodded solemnly: "Really!" After a pause, he was afraid that his explanation would be too pale, and added, "My mother is also a daughter of an aristocratic family. Before she got married, she was the only heir in the family. , and also has a tricky temper."

"After getting married, my father kept taking concubines, but my mother couldn't accept it. The two quarreled every now and then, and even fought violently. This is why I would rather go around with Mo Han than come back in those years."

"The little concubines in the Changxiao mansion, those who are good, surrendered to their mother, and those who were not good, all lost their souls." When Ye Chen said these words, his tone was a bit heavy.

"Mother used such thunderous methods to secure her position in the Chang Xiao Mansion until Ye Ran was born."

"Yeran's birth made my mother feel that my status with her was threatened. Therefore, she thought of using marriage to stabilize our status."

Ye Chen said and kissed me, "The reason why I refused the marriage at the beginning was because I didn't want myself to become my mother's pawn."

Ye Chen was slightly annoyed as he spoke, "If I knew it was you, I should have agreed."

I curled my lips: "You promised and I haven't promised yet."

Ye Chen chuckled lightly: "Yes, what a treasure our Sheng Sheng is? How can you say yes just by mentioning it?"

After joking, he continued: "Although I didn't agree at the time, my mother took the initiative to send the marriage letter to Youcheng. Your father loved you and refused the marriage. Mother felt ashamed, and my father had been in Youcheng for a long time. Now, let's start the war."

He hadn't seen Ye Chen on the battlefield at that time, so he must have been angry at Madam Ye arbitrarily arbitrating his marriage.

"Then why are you willing to marry me?" I asked cautiously.

The corners of Ye Chen's lips twitched slightly: "Because I like you." He pecked me, "How come you changed your mind and are willing to marry me?"

I was a little ashamed, at first I was really only seduced by his beauty: "It's not that you deceived me, you tricked me into agreeing to the marriage contract while I wasn't paying attention!"

Ye Chen smiled heartily, looking very happy.

There are goose-yellow gravel on the ground where the water has just flowed. I subconsciously stretched out my hand to stroke it, and realized that it was the debris of the phonograph conch, so I hurriedly threw it away.

Ye Chen looked at the thing and frowned, but didn't ask me where it came from.

It was me, looking at his black face, feeling a little uneasy: "Are you blaming me?"

"Why are you to be blamed?" Ye Chen asked puzzled.

"I brought that thing in... and accidentally let it get wet..." Although the phonograph conch is something in the water, it can't be drained after recording, otherwise it would be the picture just now.

"I know it was given to you by someone else." Ye Chen frowned, but probably considering my feelings, he didn't name the famous people.

"Is...really?" I asked anxiously.At this time, I would rather Yechen lie to me.

However, he admitted: "Yeah."

A not very obvious nasal voice, with a bit of evasion and guilt.

I don't know whether to be happy or sad for his frankness.

He paused and said: "Mother is short-tempered, so when she said those words, I didn't refute her. Otherwise, it would only irritate her, and it would be counterproductive. "

"Then my father..."

"My mother doesn't have the ability to assassinate a city lord. If she had, she would kill my father first." Ye Chen said with certainty, there was no accident, and she didn't say that on purpose to deceive me at all.

Madam Ye is really capable of doing those things.

I remembered that my father sent ghosts to inquire about the situation in Chang Xiao Mansion after Ye Chen came to You City to beg for relatives and left.

Originally, people like him only cared about the policies of the Chang Xiao Mansion.Now, for me, it is the first time to send a ghost to inquire about the inner house of Chang Xiao Mansion.

The spies reported that the Changxiao Mansion was a place where house fights were extremely fierce, and Mrs. Ye, relying on her outstanding son, strong natal family strength, and her own vicious methods, firmly occupied the first position, and made the second Ye Ran his mother flung a large part far away.

Ye Ran's mother is also a ghost, except that she doesn't have a powerful family, she doesn't know Mrs. Ye at all, and she is also loved by the old Ye Jun.

The content of the struggle between these two is mainly on the son, and the rest are still struggling to have a son.

That spy is a careful ghost, and he thoughtfully inquired about Madam Ye's methods of training people for me.

Those methods of drugging, framing, and fighting for favor are not high-end. They just scolded and beat them directly, and entered the dungeon of Changxiao Mansion without mercy.

Old Lord Ye is a fool, those concubines are fine if they are favored, but if they are not favored and offend Mrs. Ye, just wait to be dealt with.

It is light to be cut into a human stick. Madam Ye has a special method, which can extract the yin energy from the ghost's whole body, and then inject the yang energy, repeatedly torturing the ghost, which is more uncomfortable than death.

After listening to the report, my father almost died of anger. He looked at me with abnormal worried eyes, which made me speechless.

"Father...you wake up! I married Ye Chen! Not his father! Madam Ye can't touch me!"

"How can a mother-in-law fail to cultivate her daughter-in-law!" My father was extremely worried.

"Then I'm not stupid. Could it be possible to let her bully me? If she dares to bully me, I'll beat her!"

"Do you think Ye Chen will help you instead of his mother?"

I curled my lips, thought for a while, and said, "If he doesn't help me, I won't marry him!"

"At that time you were already married to him!"

I took a deep breath and made a serious decision: "Then I will divorce!"

I thought my father would scold me, saying that I was playing tricks on marriage, getting married when I wanted to, and leaving as soon as I wanted to.

Unexpectedly, after listening to my words, Dad was immediately happy: "As expected of my daughter! That's right! We must have this kind of momentum! Who cares about them, right?"

"Father...there are so many female ghosts of Yechen outside..."

Daddy glared at me: "How could someone else be so ambitious to destroy his prestige! Daddy told you that there are too many male ghosts out there who care about our Yaoyao family!"

It is!

Hey hey hey!I'm going to tell Ye Chen to see if he dares to cherish me!
"Shengsheng, you and I, husband and wife, I will not let anything destroy our relationship." Ye Chen's voice suddenly awakened my thoughts from the past.

His deep eyes were downcast, but they seemed to be full of starlight.

"I never wanted to kill your father." He emphasized to me again.

"I believe you……"

At this time, Huakai knocked on the door anxiously: "Your Majesty, the second master is here."

"Let him go back first." Ye Chen said.

"Second Master said, if you don't look ahead, those adults will fight..." Hua Kai continued to repeat helplessly.

Ye Chen frowned, and I whispered: "Then you go, I promise to be obedient and not move anything."

Ye Chen turned back after leaving just now, Hua Kai must have called him back after seeing that the situation here was not good.

Those old men must have hated me.

"You go, I have nothing on me." I said a little guilty.There is nothing on me, but I have a lot of secrets in my heart.

From a distance, it seemed that the group of ghosts could already be heard making noise, Ye Chen frowned, picked me up and put me on the bed, and left angrily.

Ever since the emperors and ministers of one generation in ancient times, after Ye Chen Xijue became the new Ye Jun, the old Ye Jun's old department has been liquidated by him in recent years.

It's not that he excludes dissidents, it's just that Lao Yejun is incompetent, and those old minions often encourage Lao Yejun to do bad things.If Ye Chen keeps it, there will be endless troubles.

The rest are loyal ministers who have passed the test of steel.

It's just that this loyal minister also has disadvantages, that is, because of his seniority, age, and seniority, Ye Chen always respects them, so he regards himself as an elder.

If I hadn't been missing for 2000 years due to an accident in Lu's family, Ye Chen should have fired them all during these 2000 years.

I couldn't sleep anyway, and the noise outside seemed to be very noisy. After thinking about it, I tidied myself up again, and went to the front yard with flowers blooming and falling.

After walking over, he saw a group of old ghosts chatting non-stop around Ye Chen in the yard.

"Your Majesty, how could you leave the land of Chang Xiao for the sake of a woman?"

"Your Majesty, that's just a woman!"

"The Lu family has fallen, even if she is Miss Lu's reincarnation, it's useless!"

"That's right! Lu's family is gone, and your majesty's marriage with her is a complete waste of myself!"

"Your Majesty! That woman is not worth it!"

"That's right! It's just a living person!"

"It's just a living person! It's lucky to come to my underworld with a living person! How can I still be the head of the Changxiao Mansion?"

"Just go to the Judgment Division to find a good life for her, and we are worthy of Youcheng Lu's family!"

"Yes! Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

……

A group of old men babbled a lot, which was extremely annoying.

Surrounded by them, Ye Chen didn't say a word, which made me uneasy.

I don't care what other people say, I only care about Ye Chen's attitude.

Finally, his silence made the veterans feel weird, and after looking at each other, they all shut their mouths.

Ye Chen still didn't speak.

Waited until someone called him softly: "Your Majesty?"

Ye Chen squinted at him, and the ghost smiled: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

"What do I mean?" Ye Chen smiled coldly, "Is what I mean useful?"

The ghost realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is the lord of the land of Chang Xiao, and he is a minister and other lords. Naturally, what you say is useful."

"Oh?" Ye Chen raised his voice, "Then why don't you even give me time to say a word?"

All the ministers shouted in panic: "Your Majesty, forgive me!"

Yechen snorted coldly: "I respect you as veterans, and you have contributed to the land of Changxiao, so I have been making more concessions to you! You are kind! Make things worse! Even the affairs of my backyard should be more involved! I will Let me ask you, are you marrying a wife or this gentleman marrying a wife?"

"Naturally, His Majesty married a wife..."

"Since it's me getting married, why bother! Who I want to marry, who I am willing to marry, and who will become the head of the land of Chang Xiao, is up to me!"

"But..." An old ghost, surrounded by many old ghosts and stars, said slowly, relying on his seniority, "Your Majesty, a house's mistress is related to the rise and fall of a house. Now The Lu family is gone, and there is no benefit in marrying the Lu family."

"Do you think that this gentleman needs a woman's influence to secure the position of Lord Ye?" Ye Chen asked coldly, the anger in his tone was ready to come out.

The old man panicked immediately: "I don't mean that, I mean..."

"What is it?" Ye Chen asked, the old man paused, Ye Chen said coldly: "I had a marriage contract with Yaoyao back then, don't you know? Now that Yaoyao is back, I should naturally fulfill my promise. Furthermore, you said that the Lu family has fallen, and now the entire Youcheng is in Yaoyao's hands, how did it fall?"

"Wen Rentan may not really want to return You City to Miss Lu."

"Yes, Your Majesty! There are so many treasures in Youcheng, how can Wen Rentan give them away?"

"I think the two must have conspired together!"

"Shut up!" Before the old man could speak, Ye Chen angrily stopped him, "Conspiracy? Mr. Zhang, don't judge others with your own heart."

There was something in Ye Chen's words, and the old ghost called Mr. Zhang turned pale immediately.

Seeing his terrified appearance all day long, Ye Chen's lips twitched: "If I remember correctly, Master Zhang also invested in the gambling house in the south of Youcheng, right?"

I know about that casino, and Wen Rentan wrote to remind me later, asking me to pay attention.

That is not an ordinary gambling house, the gambling money in it is not only ghost coins and magic weapons, but also human life.It is a killer organization hidden in the dark.

No matter where there will be such a gray area, the purpose of Wen Rentan reminding me is nothing more than to make me pay attention.After all, many important officials of the Patriarch had been killed there, and they had a deep grudge with the family.

Wen Rentan was worried that they would implicate Youcheng, and warned me not to provoke there if it couldn't be done in one go, lest there would be endless troubles.

Ye Chen also knew about this matter, he didn't say anything at that time, he just told me not to worry about it, he would deal with it.

Judging by the way he looks now, he is planning to start dealing with this matter.

It's just that I didn't expect that the shareholders inside would have retainers from the Changxiao Mansion.

Mr. Zhang was terrified, but the rest of the ghosts were at a loss, and there was someone pleading for him: "Your Majesty, it is just a gambling house, and it is in You City. Although Mr. Zhang is in charge of finance, he is far away from the store in You City. Even if he wants to bend the law for personal gain, he can’t do anything about it.”

"That's right, Your Majesty. If Mr. Zhang really wants to benefit from public affairs for personal gain, he can just open a gambling house in Changxiao City!"

……

The ghosts chattered again and again, but Ye Chen and the oldest ghosts didn't talk, and those pleading ghosts gradually realized that something was wrong.

"Your Majesty... is there any problem with the gambling house?" the ghost who begged at the beginning asked anxiously.

Ye Chen threw a roll of parchment from his bosom, the ghost looked at him anxiously, held it up with both hands and opened it, then his face changed drastically: "I...how come my son's name is on it! "

He was shocked, and the colleague on the side took a look at the parchment in his hand, and then his face changed: "This is... a death list?"
