Chapter 1141 (Kill!)
“Very well, I want you to find Qing Xu! Although his poison is powerful, it probably can’t affect the air. Before you go find Qing Xu, I need you to kill someone!” Ye Hua said coldly. Only death can bring Ye Hua satisfaction right now.
“Please speak, Your Majesty,” Bai Gu said in a deep voice.
“Go and kill the Emperor of Spirit City, Huang Fei! I want him to die in front of everyone!” Ye Hua said with a chilling intent. Originally, he wanted to torture Huang Fei to death, but now he didn’t have the mood for that!
“At your command. Is there anything else Your Majesty would like to arrange?” Bai Gu respectfully asked.
“Go handle the task first. You have my gratitude for your service,” Ye Hua said softly.
“It will be my great honour to serve Your Majesty,” Bai Gu nodded and bowed before leaving.
Ye Hua nodded as well, and waved his hand. He wasn’t even sure if Bai Gu had left, but he assumed that he had.
This Bai Gu was indeed formidable. It took considerable effort to deal with it, and it managed to escape once before.
Huang Fei, well, Ye Hua originally wanted to play a few rounds with you. But today, with his bad mood, that wasn’t going to happen!
In the next life, one must never provoke Ye Hua’s women or his family! Otherwise, the only thing that awaits is death!
Ye Hua rested his forehead on his hand, seemingly lost in thought. The enemies this time were cunning! Perhaps such enemies were worthy opponents for Ye Hua!
Of course, he was referring to their intelligence; in terms of strength, Ye Hua was undoubtedly the strongest.
“Brother-in-law, still pondering over matters?” Qing Yutong bounced, looking like a child.
Ye Hua sighed and asked casually, “How is your sister?”
“Still okay, no more arguing,” Qing Yutong shrugged. “With me around, what can’t be settled?”
Qing Yutong continued, “Brother-in-law, how about going back now?”
“Forget it, I still have many things to ponder. Watching those two is annoying,” Ye Hua said coldly. Arguments made it impossible to concentrate on solving problems.
Qing Yutong pouted, “Brother-in-law, how about going to my palace? Let Yutong give you a massage to relax your body.”
“Alas, if your sister had three-tenths of your understanding, I wouldn’t be so troubled,” Ye Hua shook his head, stood up, and descended the steps. Qing Yutong promptly grabbed Ye Hua’s arm, happily leaning on his shoulder.
‘Look at me, Yutong, never causing trouble. With me around, even if my sister can’t handle it, I can.’
The next morning…
Ye Family in the Spirit City…
“Yuanqing, go pray with the Emperor and ask for a position for your younger brother,” Ye Shen, dressed in court attire, stood beside Ye Yuanqing and said.
Ye Yuanqing, in her armour, accompanied her father to attend the early court session.
“Father, the Emperor is eager to exterminate our Ye family. How could he possibly arrange a position for my younger brother?” Ye Yuanqing said softly. If it were possible, it would have been arranged long ago.
The father and daughter sat in the carriage. Ye Shen still spoke in a low voice, “Yuanqing, just give it a try when the time comes. Whether it works or not doesn’t matter.”
“Father… Alright, I’ll give it a try,” Ye Yuanqing couldn’t bear to refuse again. After all, they were family.
“That scoundrel!” Ye Shen shouted angrily.
“Father, please don’t speak ill of Big Brother like that!” Ye Yuanqing no longer liked hearing her father talk about his older brother in such a way. If it weren’t for her older brother, she might not be standing here now.
Ye Shen said in a deep voice, “How can I not say that about him? If it weren’t for him, I, Ye Shen, wouldn’t have ended up like this.”
“Father! Don’t forget, now it’s the Emperor who fears the Ye family!” Ye Yuanqing said coldly. Her father was no longer the father she knew, more like a timid tiger hiding in its own territory.
“That’s not me!” Ye Shen said casually.
Ye Yuanqing bit her lip lightly, “Father, you’re just jealous of Big Brother.”
“Nonsense!”
Slap!
A resounding slap landed on Ye Yuanqing’s face, leaving five distinct fingerprints on her fair cheek.
Ye Yuanqing held her face, looking up in disbelief. She never expected her father to slap her!
Her father had never hit her before.
Ye Shen was also furious. The only daughter he cherished was now siding with Ye Hua. It seemed like the entire Ye family had been taken away by Ye Hua.
The carriage fell into silence, and father and daughter didn’t speak. Ye Shen also calmed down a lot.
“Yuanqing, father was impulsive just now,” Ye Shen sighed, apologising in his words.
“Father, it’s only right for a father to discipline his daughter. There’s no need for you to apologise,” Ye Yuanqing said indifferently.
Suddenly, she remembered that when her older brother returned, he had beaten his father severely. He envied his older brother’s courage; she didn’t dare to do the same.
Ye Shen was helpless, realising that his daughter was angry.
Until they reached the gates of the palace, Ye Yuanqing got off the carriage and quickly walked in. Ye Shen stared at the carriage, but her daughter was nowhere to be seen.
“Lord Ye, it seems like there’s a conflict with your daughter,” a voice interrupted Ye Shen’s thoughts.
Ye Shen paused, turned around, and respectfully said, “Prime Minister Shan.”
“Please, no need for formality. Perhaps we’ll be in-laws in the future,” Shan Junren smiled slightly, appearing shrewd.
Ye Shen was puzzled. Was Shan Junren really considering a marriage alliance?
But if there were a marriage alliance, it wouldn’t bode well for Yuanqing’s career.
“Prime Minister Shan, I can’t control Yuanqing’s affairs anymore. We just had a quarrel,” Ye Shen said helplessly, implying that he couldn’t make decisions, and maybe he should ask his daughter directly.
“Lord Ye, let’s enter the hall first,” Shan Junren said with a smile.
“Prime Minister Shan, please go ahead.”
“No need for formality…”
Ye Shen understood why Shan Junren was acting this way—it was all because of Ye Hua! Their respect was directed towards that scoundrel, not him! It was a disgrace to himself, as if he were relying on his son’s high status.
Father relying on his son! It was simply humiliating!
Along the way, Ye Shen heard respectful addresses from others. Before Ye Hua appeared, these people wouldn’t have uttered a word. Now, they were offering valuable gifts, going with the wind! They were opportunists! Trash!
Civil and military officials entered the palace, standing on both sides.
Ye Yuanqing was now standing at the forefront, looking quite imposing.
Ye Shen could only stand in the rear, proving how low his official position was.
“The Emperor arrives…” With a sharp cry, Emperor Huang Fei appeared in his imperial robe.
Having lost two sons not long ago, he could still smile so happily. Only Huang Fei could manage that. However, his current smile was aimed at Ye Hua. ‘Your mother is about to die, and I’m delighted!’
‘You stopped me from touching women, so what? This is nothing significant. I can abstain. Do you think it can make me uncomfortable?’
Just thinking of the day Ye Hua was furious made Huang Fei very happy.
