Although the Beggar Gang, known as the largest gang in the world, dare not say that they have eyes and ears in every corner of the Zhou Dynasty, if there is news in the whole world that they cannot find out, it is only because they do not want to find out.
Especially at the beginning of the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, this group of beggars, who were at the bottom of the world, also relied on the power of this group of most humble people to achieve glory for a while.
During the founding of the People's Republic of China, Emperor Tianwen used to secretly use the power of the Beggar Gang to collect and deliver news from various places in order to reduce the pressure, whether he was going around killing people and conquering the East or West during the war, or rebuilding after the war. It seems that the Beggar Clan at that time was really at its peak.
However, when the second emperor, Emperor Yongjia, came to the throne, the successor emperor took his face into consideration and claimed that a low-level beggar was involved in the mail delivery of a great country. It was really embarrassing, so he slowly cut off all contact with the beggar gang.
The leaders of the Beggar Gang at that time were also righteous, and presumably their profession was already content with fame and fortune, so they did not have to worry about it. As a result, the Beggar Gang, which had been glorious for nearly thirty years since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, once again fell into obscurity and was eliminated from history.
Later, Emperor Guotai vigorously developed the post office industry, which was the predecessor of the current post office system of one station for ten miles, one shop for fifty miles, and one pavilion for hundreds of miles. It can be said that the post offices are now blooming everywhere in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is largely due to the visible form of the Beggar Gang that the current post offices have come into being. .
It's just that the Beggar Gang is so powerful. After intensive investigation day and night, only superficial information about the sudden explosion in the Imperial City was limited. As for the cause of the explosion and what the consequences were, there was no word at all. And how Prince Fuying and Ge Wangyou are doing now, no matter how much they inquire, it will be of no use.
It’s really no wonder that the Beggar Gang is incompetent. After all, it’s the imperial city, and they can’t get in even if they have so many eyes and ears, right? Being able to spy on the news in the imperial city, even if it is just trivial information, is enough to show how powerful the Beggar Clan is.
It's just that Ye Xie'er has always had a pampered temperament, is sharp-tongued, and won't forgive anyone regardless of reason, especially since Wage Wangyou is involved, and there has been no substantial progress in the investigation of the Beggar Clan. It's hard to hear. Some.
Such bossy accusations as "What else can you people do?" and "The so-called largest gang in the world can't even find out this bit of information." They were also made regardless of the occasion.
He Qingshan knew that Ye Xiayou had a bad temper, and no matter how unpleasant his words were, they would only go in one ear and out the other.
Gu Buyi, who has been coming and going here for the past few days, can't help but criticize the second young lady of the Ye family who is rarely seen in a hundred times. If she is so talkative but not practical, she may have to refute her for the sake of her gang leader. sentence.
He Qingshan naturally saw that the leader of the Beggar Clan, who was responsible for all matters inside and outside the capital, was angry, so he quickly drew his attention and said, "Master Gu, it's hard work."
Gu Buyi calmed down a little and said: "The vegetable vendor who went to deliver melons and fruits to the palace today also heard that there was an assassin in the palace, and it seems to be related to the explosion."
Compared with the unknown safety of Wage Wangyou, the so-called assassin obviously did not attract much attention from a few people, so it was not appropriate for Gu Bu to say goodbye and leave.
Ye Xie, who was lost in his thoughts, suddenly said after a brief absence of consciousness, "Can you enter the palace?"
He Qingshan was stunned, almost jumping up from his stool, and said in shock: "Are you crazy?"
Obviously, Lian Ye Xiayou himself felt very inappropriate for such a ridiculous request. It was indeed abrupt, so he forced a smile and fell into silence again.
Until there was another knock on the door.
After a brief silence, the knock on the door rang again, followed by Gu Buyi's voice, "Gang leader, someone is looking for you."
Surprised that he would come back again after such a long time, and equally surprised that who would come to find him here and now, He Qingshan looked at the small tea beside him, and then looked at Ye Xiayou again.
The latter knew it well, "We're here at midnight."
Sure enough, Xiaocha went to open the door. First of all, he was half a body behind at the third watch of the night, and he was "securing" Yue Baijia, who was not suitable for ancient times.
He stretched out his hand to touch Xiaocha's head very naturally, and said in the middle of the night: "Why, even the third uncle has to hide it?"
After making a face and sticking out his tongue, Xiaocha looked up at the tall Yue Baijia.
Gu Buyi still wanted to explain, but He Qingshan, who had already walked out, said, "Master Gu, go ahead and get busy."
The leader of the Beggar Clan branch in Beijing, who had exposed the gang leader's whereabouts due to his own negligence, was already prepared to be punished, but he was sent away with such an understatement. When he was slightly distracted, he was pushed out by Xiaocha.
Seeing Ye Xie also coming out of the house, Yue Baiji, who abides by the rules of marrying and obeying her husband, frowned, lowered her head, and called out "Second Sister" softly.
In the middle of the night last night, she asked her if she was afraid of seeing her second sister. After all, it was because of Yue Baizhi's appearance three years ago, and it was also because of her uninformed persuasion that indirectly intensified the fight. Ye San, who fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband, would not blame his daughter-in-law who was five years older than him, but that did not mean that Ye Xie would not.
Compared with Ye Sangen, who has been away from home for many years after growing up, Yue Baiji has obviously spent more time with Ye Xiayou. Even her temper is just that she is afraid of returning home, so she still has to face what she should face.
"come over."
Yue Baiji, who was in the center of the courtyard, naturally knew who Ye Xiayou was speaking to, so Weinuo carefully stepped forward and stood one step in front of Ye Xiayou, but was met with a sharp "kneel down".
He Qingshan was so frightened that he trembled.
It was the first time to see Ye Xiayou, who had always been so pleasant in the past few days, so angry. Xiaocha hurriedly hid behind Ye Xiayou, looking at the two women at the door with his big eyes, full of doubts.
Yue Baizhi knelt down in front of Ye Xiayou without hesitation.
"what are you doing?"
In the middle of the night, he was about to step forward, but he met his sister's "eyesight" coming towards him. It was hollow and lifeless, but it penetrated deep inside. The fear of this second sister seemed to be innate in his bones.
Ignoring the slight anger in his brother's tone, Ye Xiayou reached out and touched the cheek that could reach his chest even when he knelt down, and then gave it a hard palm.
A sharp slap in the face.
On the pale cheek, four hateful dark red fingerprints instantly appeared.
Yue Baiji didn't dare to say anything, so he quickly lowered his head and crouched deeper.
He Qingshan quickly grabbed Ye Xiayou, wondering where this second young lady could get so angry.
Midnight took a few steps forward, guarding Yue Baizhi behind him, "You're crazy."
Knowing the reason, he went to help the Yue Bai Pheasant in the middle of the night, but the Yue Bai Pheasant didn't move, or should be said to dare not move.
Yue Baizhi understood the many contents contained in this slap, so he guarded the other two "outsiders", still bowed his body respectfully, swallowed his grievance, and obeyed without saying a word, which was quite well-behaved.
Until Ye Xiayou's anger from this slap gradually subsided, Yue Baizhi spoke at the right time and said softly: "I'm sorry, second sister."
"Huh?" Ye Xiayou squeezed out a heavy nasal sound, which was obviously meant to question.
Yue Bai's head is lowered. Rather than looking like a little daughter-in-law who has been angered by her husband's family, it is better to say that she is afraid.
"It was Bai Pheasant who was wrong." Yue Bai Pheasant's voice was trembling. "Three years ago, Bai Pheasant was meddling in other people's business and did not speak to my husband. As a result, my husband was so seriously injured and the second sister was indirectly blinded."
Ye Xie put her hands on the shoulders of the man in white clothes and bent down, "Whether I am blind or not has nothing to do with what you did back then. My slap is to let you know how no one cares about you in Yue's family. But When you enter my Ye family, you must abide by the three obediences and four virtues, and remember the three cardinal principles and five virtues. If you ever help an outsider again, get out of here!"
The last sentence of scolding made Yue Baizhi lower his body a little lower, and his voice became even closer, "Yes, Second Sister."
"Get up." He straightened up, the anger still on Ye Xiayou's face, "This is the first and last time. Others can't break the old man's rules, but I can't break them?"
Ignoring the sister-in-law who should have been married to Panshan long ago, Ye Haoyuan turned towards Ye San Geng, who was already looking unhappy. Even if he couldn't see it, he could guess his mood through his brother's rapid breathing. He spoke in a slightly slower tone: "Three Geng." What happened years ago may have been because Bai Zhi was confused for a moment, but if you make a mistake, you must admit punishment. This is the rule. I know that you have given her everything since she was a child, but if my sister is not a bad person, maybe she will be so arrogant because of your favor. degree."
The words were spoken to Midnight, but they were clearly meant for Yue Baizhi, which made He Qingshan, who was close to him, shudder.
Yue Baiji stood up, his body visibly trembled, and he was speechless.
When he faced his younger brother, his expression instantly returned to normal, and even his tone was completely different from before. There was no trace of sternness at all, and he said quietly: "I'm obviously avoiding you, why do I want to come here?"
My daughter-in-law was in pain, patting the dust on Yue Baizhi's long skirt. She obviously didn't give her sister a good look in the middle of the night, and said in an extremely unhappy tone, "Come here to suffer."
Naturally, he understood the meaning of his brother's tone. Ye Xieyou didn't take it seriously and chuckled, "Look, it's just that you love your wife too much. This is just like grandpa and dad, but..."
"Can you say a few words less?" Naturally, Ye Xiayou could guess what he was going to say next. Ye Sangen was even more angry, and directly pulled Yue Baiphei up and said impatiently: "Let's go, don't do it." Ignore her."
Turning around, he saw He Qingshan and Xiao Cha staring blankly at what was happening here. He was still angry in the middle of the night and said: "Don't follow her, she is a lunatic."
From beginning to end, Ye Xieyou didn't say another word. Ye Sangen apparently slammed the door angrily and left, leaving the two "outsiders" looking at each other.
He just dragged his baby daughter-in-law and walked out of Liquan Hang. After struggling all the way, Yue Baizhi finally got rid of the shackles of the midnight, turned around and walked back, but was grabbed by the midnight again.
"What are you going to do?"
"You can't leave the second sister alone."
Looking at the dazzling palm prints against the white clothes, although he is very bad at expressing his inner emotions in words, the distress in his eyes is very obvious.
Ye Sangeng said angrily: "She is just a lunatic. When she asked me, she already promised that it would be in the past. It has been three years. Who can be as fussy about everything as she is?"
Naturally, she could feel Ye Sangen's unspeakable concern for her. The woman lowered her head and said timidly, "But it was my fault in the first place. The second sister was right to do this."
He stared at Yue Baizhi for a long time in the middle of the night. He was definitely not mourning his misfortune, but he was angry at his temperament. He sighed: "But she shouldn't hit you."
Yue Baizhi pursed his lips and smiled, "Then we can't let the second sister feel depressed and angry, which is not good for her health."
In the middle of the night, when he was about to speak but stopped, Yue Baizhi took his arm.
"Actually, the second sister is also good for me. She knows that I have always felt guilty. Such a slap means that she actually treats me as one of her own. If someone else did that kind of thing, with the temper of the second sister, I would still be able to act like I just did. Stand in front of her?"
Ye Mingeng naturally understood the meaning of these words, but he still felt that his sister had gone too far, so he swallowed the words back to his stomach again.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry." Yue Baizhi said softly, "Isn't this in the past?"
As he spoke, Yue Baizhi dragged Ye Sangeng back in an understanding manner.
In the small courtyard, Ye Xiayou, who had never said a word, still pursed his lips and chuckled after hearing a very powerful "clang" of the wooden door, but he shook his head and sighed, quite helplessly.
He Qingshan, who had been watching the changes in Ye Xiayou's expression, was still frightened by what had just happened. He stood aside with his arms around Xiaocha and asked tentatively: "Are you really sick?"
Ye Xiayou sneered, "You're the one who's sick."
After confirming that Ye Xiayou no longer had the unpredictable temper just now, He Qingshan felt a little calmer, "You should change your temper. If you have any issues, just say whatever you want behind closed doors. Where do you want her, a virgin daughter-in-law, to put her face?"
Ye Xia You smiled, turned around and walked towards the courtyard gate. Passing by the large and small children, Xiao Cha quickly reached out to support the blind woman, tilted her little head and asked: "Aunt Xia You was beaten because of what happened three years ago. That aunt?"
Ye Xiayou also liked this quirky little girl very much, and said with a smile: "Yes and no, children should not inquire about adults' affairs, you don't understand."
The little girl, who was only ten years old, led Ye Xia You to the courtyard door. Watching the latter fumble with the door, the old god said: "I don't understand anything. Aunt Xia You is going to do something big, and I don't want Uncle San Geng to know." , and then used the provocation method to drive them away, right?"
Ye Xia'er moved her hands for a moment, surprised and relieved, "Girls are too smart, be careful not to get married in the future."
The little girl stuck out her tongue, but Ye Xia could not see it.
As soon as he touched the deadbolt, before he could insert it into the nose of the door, the newly closed courtyard door opened again, and a dark hand suddenly reached out from outside the courtyard and grabbed the door panel.
"Xia You is going to do something big."
