Chapter 604: I'm Here
and raised in Guiyue. 。Therefore, when Guiyue clashes with other nations, as long as there is no deep-seated grudge against Guiyue, it should prioritize its own territory. 。To each their own, no one...The chieftain was a little scared, he suddenly realized that Mu Qianqiu's proposal to separate had a lot to do with whether Ye Jinggui was good or bad.
She certainly couldn't be leaving because of the old mistress, for she had already been banished from the Ye family. From now on, this entire mansion belonged to her, Mu Qianqiu, and she should be happy about it. 。Yet she just happened to bring up the idea of divorce at this time, which means the biggest possibility is that there's a problem between her and Night View. 。And this question is something Mu refused to answer, or according to Mu's own words, she wouldn't answer it to save face for the Ye family and also to give Ye Gui the last shred of dignity. 。Once it's said, I fear the image of the night scene will be seriously affected, even completely overturned. 。When night fell silent, he craved an explanation, but absolutely couldn't allow the Ye family to lose face in front of so many people. 。Moreover, the Emperor is still here. What if it were to be said and affect the Emperor's perception That would be a great loss. 。Enough. 。He sighed again, “If you want a divorce, then let’s get a divorce.” 。"Jinggui is already dead, and there's no way to separate us. You guys should figure out what to do with the government. As the head of the Ye family, I am willing to write you a document proving that you and Jinggui are no longer husband and wife, and from now on, you have nothing to do with the Ye family." 。As for what you said about not taking anything from the Ye family, these old bones of mine don't concern themselves with such matters. 。This General's Residence belongs to Jade Girl, he is your son, these are all family matters. 。“ He waved his hand, signaling them to take care of those matters themselves. He simply sat there waiting for them to draft the documents. 。Then Ye Wen instructed someone to go and invite the registrar from Lin'an Prefecture. Chi Hongfang quickly arrived in person, bringing the registrar into the Mingtang hall. 。It was Zhu'er who went to invite him. On the way here, she had already briefly told him about the situation at home. Although Chi Hongfang listened with a stunned expression and had many questions, 。But he didn't say a word to Zhuai'er about what to ask. After entering the General's Mansion, he remained silent and immediately instructed the Registry Official to hand over the draft document to Ye Feng. Ye Feng read through it once and then personally wrote a copy, stamped it with his Clan Leader seal, and returned it to the Registry Official. 。The household registrar took it, glanced over it, then nodded and said to Chi Hongfang, “The head of the Ye family has already drafted the divorce papers between Lady Mu, the matriarch, and General Li. Although it wasn’t written by the general himself, the head of the Ye family holds ultimate authority within the clan, so these documents are valid.” 。Please have an adult affix their official seal, and once the seal is in place, you can proceed with processing the new household registration. 。“Speaking of this, he turned to Mu and said: “Mrs. Mu is the empress dowager’s mother, so even if she is no longer a daughter-in-law of the Ye family, she must still be an official, and she should still live in the inner city” 。But to settle one's household registration, you need a place to live. I wonder if Madam has chosen a residence yet” Mu Shi shook her head. “Not yet.” 。The other day I was at the temple and didn't return to town, so I haven't had time for this matter. 。But I still have several shops in my hands, and there are also estates outside the city. It's better to settle down in the estate. There's no point in living in this inner city. 。"
The household registrar was embarrassed. A respected general's wife shouldn't be reduced to a farm woman, why did the mistress have such an idea He glanced at Ye Wenyan, implying that did Fourth Miss really make the mistress relocate to the countryside estate
Ye Wenyan nodded, "Since it's the mother's wish, let's follow her wishes!"
The household registrar still wanted to say something, but Chi Hongfang waved his hand, "Just do as Madam said!" He then smiled, "We can't call you Madam anymore now. After the official seal of our estate is stamped, you will only be addressed as Mrs. Mu." 。“
Mrs. Mu nodded, “Thank you, Lord Magistrate, for your understanding.” >>> 。" No need to thank us, we are just doing our duty for the Emperor and Empress." 。The official procedures were very efficient, and in a short while, all the paperwork for the divorce was completed, including Mu's household registration. 。Chi Hongfang didn't linger long, finished the paperwork with the household registrar and left. As he left, he glanced at Quan Qingcheng, implying: "Your Majesty, you should leave too! It would be awkward to stay here any longer."Quan Qingcheng agreed, saying to his brothers, "We've witnessed what we needed to see, let's go back!" Quan Qinghua didn't have any objections and nodded. 。Then, Quan Qingyun glanced at Ye Fei Zhou before asking him, "Do you want to come with me" He then looked at Ye Chu Lian and said, "Will you come with this king as well" 。" I'll stay here in the Eastern Residence, Fourth Sister said I could stay there, right Fourth Sister" Night Wenyan nodded, then said to Quan Qingyun: "Staying at Prince Ren's Mansion isn't that simple. Chu Lian is this age, if rumors spread it would be quite embarrassing." 。While I don't mind what people on the outside say, it doesn't mean everyone else doesn't care. 。Including my second brother, he is the same too. 。So it's better to let them live in the East Residence, with the older brother taking care of his younger sister. No one could find fault with that arrangement. 。"Having said that, she comforted Quan Qingyun again, "Your Highness doesn't need to rush things. What is meant for you will ultimately be yours." 。"
Quan Qingyun nodded, he unconditionally trusted Ye Wényan, whatever Ye Wényan said, he would listen to it. So, he didn't ask Ye Fei Zhou any further questions, and planned to leave Yipin General's Mansion with Quan Qingcheng.
But Quan Qingyin didn't really want to leave. He wanted to stay a little longer, just to watch Yè Wēn yán one last time. 。Ye Jia was clearly settling all his past grievances today, so he came to finish them. After clearing everything up, wouldn't he have no more worriesHe looked at the dagger on the ground again. As he gazed upon it, the image of Ye Wen in shadow, dressed in a wedding robe but with a knife plunged into his heart, also appeared in his mind. 。The sight of all that blood kept replaying in his mind, making him constantly reminisce about what he was doing that day and why he hadn't rushed to save Ye Wenyan from serious injury at the Su Palace. 。Why wasn't he able to switch identities with Quan Qinglu earlier, and personally welcome his beloved bride home 。Now that so many things have been missed, he can't do anything now, he can only stay in the Ye Mansion for a while longer, and take another look at Yaner. 。After today, I truly can't think about this girl anymore. 。Quan Qingcheng persuaded him for a while to go with them, but seeing that he was unmoved, he stopped persuading him. 。After all, Ye Wen didn't mean to drive him away, so he only left with the Third and Fourth Princes. 。The Night Family members had no explanation for why Sixth Prince hadn't left. After all, they were each preoccupied with their own thoughts and couldn't be bothered to care about him. 。Mu clutched the divorce papers and new household registration, letting out a long sigh of relief. She even seemed to regain her energy and managed a smile. 。She told her several children: "I'm most sorry for the pain I've caused you. " 。But you are my children, you have no choice. 。Just like I once married your father, I had no other choice. 。The General's Mansion belonged to the Ye family, and now there is only you, Feiyu, the direct heir of the Ye family left. This mansion is destined to be inherited by you. 。As for your future, I've also thought about it. Whatever your father said about fearing the royal family was just what the old mistress told him. You needn't listen to that. 。From now on, you should take your exams if you want to, read military books if you wish, and live your life the way you desire. No one will stop you anymore. 。Although Ye Feiyu had many questions about his mother's departure, when Mu Shi spoke in this way, he unexpectedly felt a yearning. 。It's a pity that this longing came too late. Now, he has little interest in the imperial examinations or military campaigns. 。But life still goes on, and this mansion still needs to be maintained. 。He became the head of the family, so he had to find a way for his family members to live openly within Lin'an City's inner city. This became his burden from now on. 。Ye Feiyu nodded and told Mu Shi: "Please rest assured, mother, I will take good care of this family." 。"I'll help my brother too," Ye Qingmei also said, "We still have the clinic, and Yan'er is going to do a perfumery business. We can support our family." 。But mother, where will you live now You can't really move to that farm in the countryside, can you It's too far. 。“It's better that way,” Mu smiled. “I worked hard for the Ye family my whole life; now I just want a peaceful life.” 。Although this may seem selfish, I still hope you can understand me, after all, you don't know what I've been through. 。She finished speaking and looked at Ye Wenyan again. She wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't know where to begin. 。It was Ye Wen who understood her best, taking the initiative to say to her, “Mother, don’t worry, I’m here!” A simple “I’m here,” inexplicably gave Mu shi peace of mind. 。Unbeknownst to him, this daughter had become the pillar of the family at some point. No matter what happened, he wanted to hear her opinion. 。Only when Ye Wen nodded would she be able to rest assured. 。Ye Fei Zhou and Ye Chu Lian also came over. Ye Fei Zhou said, "Auntie, please rest assured, we live in the East Residence, I will help with anything that happens here." 。Although there's a wall separating us, we're still family. Big brother is still big brother, and little sister is still little sister. 。”
Ye Chu Lian also said: “The silver I earn from brewing alcohol will also supplement the household expenses. Although General’s Mansion is large, and although there are no more people in the family who can earn a salary, we can still support ourselves and maintain this mansion. We won't lose face of our ancestors.” 。She finished speaking, and suddenly realized she had said the wrong thing. 。Though respecting one's ancestors is important, it's unfortunate that they are no longer her ancestors. The Ye family members have no blood relation to her anymore. 。She sighed lightly, but still smiled and said, "Everything will be alright. We've even survived the Dragon flipping over, so what are we afraid of now" Ye Wenyan watched this scene and thought that having things turn out like this for the Ye family was actually quite good. 。Some people are willing to enjoy the benefits that come with their family, while others are willing to become independent and rely on themselves. 。In such a time, it is truly admirable that Mu dared to take the step of leaving. 。Perhaps with her as a starting point, women's status and voice could also be elevated in this era. 。Women are no longer accessories to men, they don't forget their families after marriage, and they don't have to endure a husband having multiple wives. 。They can also live an equal life and have their own thoughts. Their vision will no longer be limited to family disputes. When the day comes that everyone realizes that kind of freedom, then the times will truly change, right "Mu Qianqiu, what exactly are you thinking" In the Numinous Hall, Ye Lianmeng's voice echoed again... >ent eldest daughter, went to Fulu Courtyard together. Despite risking the label of unfilial children, they dragged the old lady from Fulu Courtyard to the ancestral hall of the Ye family and forced he...
