Chapter 190 Finding No Evidence
"Liu Yunshu, you wicked woman, you raised such a fine daughter! Last night, Ye Yaoyao went to Qingzhu Courtyard and severely injured my son."
Such an unfilial daughter is not a member of the Ye family at all; I want to beat her to death.
The outside was crowded with servants watching. Everyone was stunned by what Old Madam Ye said. Except for Ye Li'an, everyone else was also confused.
Did the daughter and younger sister really go and beat up Ye Mian?
Liu Yunshu said sternly with a serious face, "Grandma, everything must be based on evidence. Your words are baseless and you are slandering Yaoyao."
"Yes! Grandmother, you're really getting senile. How could I hit my own father? That would be a crime punishable by lightning."
"The old lady must be suffering from hysteria."
"The Third Miss's ordeal is still fresh in our minds. And now it's the Fourth Miss. It's really not easy being the Old Madam's granddaughter."
The servants were all talking about it. Some even glanced at the sky. It was a clear, cloudless day, and there hadn't been any thunder last night. They all thought the old lady had gone mad.
“My son said it himself, how could I wrong you? What sins has my Ye family committed to have such a vixen like you appear?”
No one believed her here, and Old Madam Ye was so angry that she stomped her feet, covered her face, and howled loudly.
"The old lady has gone mad. Quickly take her away and find a doctor to examine her."
"Yes, Madam." Two servants helped Old Madam Ye away.
"What are you doing? Let me go! I'm not crazy!"
The mother and her children were left behind. "Little sister, did you really go and hit Ye Mian?"
"Let me tell you about this, little sister, why don't you go see your grandfather!"
Ye Li'an was afraid that if Ye Yaoyao revealed her true feelings, her mother would find out that they were not Ye Mian's children, so he quickly sent her away.
Ye Yaoyao nodded and went out.
"Li An, what are you doing, sending Yao Yao away?"
“Mother, the one who beat Ye…father last night was my master. He went with my little sister. They discovered that Ye Mian framed my grandfather for treason.”
"What a heartless bastard Ye Mian! I can no longer tolerate him in my household."
"Big brother, what about maternal grandfather?" Ye Xiyao asked worriedly.
"rest assured!"
At this time, the Liu family had already been surrounded by the Dragon Shadow Guards.
"My lord, we have received a report that the Liu family is suspected of treason and collusion with the enemy. We are conducting a search under imperial orders, and we ask for your cooperation."
Old Madam Liu was filled with grief and indignation. "This is outrageous! Our Liu family is loyal to the emperor and loves our country. Who is slandering our Liu family behind our backs?"
At this moment, a large crowd of onlookers gathered outside the Liu family's gate, discussing the matter animatedly.
"I don't know about that. It's my duty. If anyone tries to stop me, don't blame me for not showing mercy."
Lord Liu spoke with righteous indignation: "My Liu family has been clean for generations. This must be a malicious frame-up. I am upright and have nothing to fear. I will cooperate with the search and give the Liu family justice."
"That's perfect, everyone go in and search."
With a wave of his hand, the leader of the Dragon Shadow Guards ordered his men to rush into the mansion and begin searching every nook and cranny, leaving no place untouched.
The Liu family members gathered together. Those who were unaware of the situation looked uneasy, while the old Marquis showed no sign of urgency. The leader of the Dragon Shadow Guards noticed this.
The maids and servants in the mansion were trembling with fear, and the entire Liu family was plunged into chaos and panic.
"Reporting, sir, we have not found any clues."
"Sir, we couldn't find it."
"Sir, we don't have any here either."
"Nothing, sir."
All the squads came over to report, and the leader of the Dragon Shadow Guard looked at one of them and confirmed it once again.
“You’ve all investigated very thoroughly.”
"Reporting to Your Excellency, we have not missed a single place."
The leader glanced at the Liu family members; some were relieved, while others were indignant, though their expressions seemed normal.
It didn't seem like someone who knew the news beforehand. After thinking for a moment, he clasped his hands in a respectful bow to the old Marquis and smiled:
"Lord Liu, the search was fruitless this time, and I have offended you greatly. It was my duty, and I hope you will not take offense."
"But this matter is not yet over. I must return to report to the Emperor. If there are any further developments, I hope the Liu family will continue to cooperate."
Lord Liu replied calmly, "It's all official business, and the Liu family will understand."
"As for this slander, I will report it to the Emperor at court tomorrow. The person behind this will surely bring justice to my Liu family."
"Of course, then I'll go back and report. Farewell!"
"Ling Chuan, Han Xing, go out and deliver the food to the next floor."
"Yes, grandfather."
Liu Hanxing watched the Dragon Shadow Guards leave, while the crowd at the gate had not yet dispersed. He shouted loudly:
"My lord, I always knew the Liu family was loyal and would never do such a treasonous thing."
We implore Your Honor to clear the Liu family's name and bring to justice the person who maliciously framed them.
Seeing that the Liu family was being falsely accused of treason and colluding with the enemy, the people dispersed.
Inside the room, Mu Yunmeng saw Liu Hanxing enter and quickly said, "Son, pack your things quickly and leave the capital city as soon as possible."
"Eldest daughter-in-law, why does Hanxing want to leave?"
“Mother, the Fourth Prince came to the mansion yesterday, and Hanxing had to pretend to be sick. His concerned behavior was very strange, as if he had homosexual tendencies.”
Someone came to search the place today; I'm afraid my daughter-in-law misunderstood.
“Mother, your son also agrees that Hanxing should go out and lay low for a while,” Liu Lingchuan echoed.
Ye Yaoyao had previously asserted that the Liu family's treasonous actions were related to their close relationship with the Fourth Prince, and most people believed that today's events were inextricably linked to the Fourth Prince.
After a long silence, the old marquis finally spoke:
“Our family was indeed accused of treason, but it was Ye Mian. The items were taken away by Li An last night.”
"That was close! Thank goodness for Li An."
"My lord, Miss Biao has arrived," the steward announced.
"Is that Yaoyao?"
Ye Xiyao was still pretending to be sick. Everyone looked expectantly behind the housekeeper. Ye Yaoyao came in with a smile, and Mu Yunmeng immediately took her hand.
"My dear aunt, you scared me to death just now."
"Don't worry, Aunt. There's no evidence. The Emperor won't frame the Liu family again anytime soon."
Ye Mian is out of luck. My dad and I gave him a good beating last night, just waiting for the Ye family to make a big scene.
The sentiments of the Liu family: Ye Mian deserved to be beaten!
"that would be great."
At this moment, Liu Hanxing's bundle was taken out by Mu Yunmeng's personal nanny.
"Young master, here is your baggage."
"Is my older cousin going on a long trip?"
Old Madam Liu was reluctant to let her eldest grandson be away from home for so long, so she tentatively asked Ye Yaoyao.
“Yaoyao, your eldest cousin has recently been harassed by the Fourth Prince. He also came to our residence yesterday. We suspect that the false accusation of treason is related to him.”
Your aunt is about to send him away to avoid the limelight!
"The Fourth Prince is getting entangled with my eldest cousin?"
Ye Yaoyao looked at Liu Hanxing with a puzzled expression.
Yesterday, Ye Mian encountered the Fourth Prince and planned to use him as a shield if his plans were exposed. The Fourth Prince has no interest in the throne; why is he clinging to his cousin?
What? The Fourth Prince has no interest in the throne? Did they misunderstand before, thinking that the Fourth Prince would stage a coup?
What does it mean that he treats Liu Hanxing so specially? Could it be that he's gay?
