I bribed the little father-in-law outside and went in to help Wang out.
"father."
"Don't say anything and go home."
Wang did not dare to return to the Hou Mansion on the spot. She was also afraid.
The emperor looked at the two brothers of the Ye family. "Can you really watch the decline of the Hou Mansion?"
Qi Wen shook his head, "If you don't have a gold medal to avoid death, it will definitely decline? It's not like there are no capable people in the Hou Mansion. Take your time and see."
The emperor was very satisfied with Qi Wen's answer. This idea is correct.
"Do you two want to inherit the Hou Mansion?"
Po Meng smiled, "Your Majesty, we don't have that ambition. We just need to stay by your Majesty's side for a few years."
"Haha. Is it really because of physical problems?"
Mrs. Meng nodded, "It does matter. The other thing is that we don't want to be too tired. Life is only a few decades long, so we still enjoy life."
"If you two inherit the Hou Mansion, you will not be demoted."
The two of them shook their heads together, "Thank you, Your Majesty, we don't have that idea."
It was already dark when they got home. They had just entered the house and had not finished eating when Butler Ye arrived.
"Seventh Young Master and Eighth Young Master, please go back and take a look. Mr. Hou is ill."
Po Meng smiled and said, "Do you think the Marquis will not be more angry if we go over?"
"Seventh Young Master, Master Hou is really sick."
"Okay, let's follow and take a look."
Qi Wen has no objection, he can do whatever he wants.
The Zhang family's father and son also followed him and were worried about their two masters.
When they arrived at the Hou Mansion, the servants were now very respectful to them. It was no longer the time when they were helping each other with blood on their faces and watching indifferently.
When I saw the man lying on the bed with a bloodless face, I felt that he was much older.
Ye Zongshen looked at the two of them, "Are you happy? Are you relieved? It's not good for any of you to take over the Ye family like this."
Mrs. Meng was very tired today and sat down directly.
"You are thinking too much. We have no plans to take over the Ye family."
"You want the Ye family to be lonely without this plan? What good will that do to you?"
Po Meng shook her head, "The Emperor asked us this question today. I just want to know that a Hou Mansion without a gold medal for immunity from death is not a Hou Mansion? Or will the Ye family lose without a gold medal for immunity from death?"
Ye Zongshen twitched his lips, "Do you know why the emperor has never been able to tolerate the Ye family's death-free gold medal? This is not simple. If the emperor is stupid one day, this gold medal can be completely replaced.
This is why I have been cautious for so many years.”
"What's the use of being careful? Isn't it easy to deal with you?
Besides, what's the point of being cautious? Isn't it because someone else failed you?
If you attach importance to the fact that the next generation will not be like this, you are on the wrong path.
Okay, we have been tired for the whole day and have no energy here."
"Are you really not interested in the position?"
Po Meng shook her head, "No? Is the title of Marquis a great thing?"
Ye Zongshen watched them leave, with the words he just heard in his mind.
They had to admit that they were indeed wrong. Since they had no intention of inheriting, they had to choose an heir.
Also, without the gold medal to avoid death, the Ye family has lost face, and the knife hanging over their heads has been taken away.
Let's talk about the Wang family. Mrs. Wang has no energy at all now and looks at her son opposite.
No one from the Ye family came to pick her up. There was no other way but the Wang family to pick her up.
Wang Shangshu looked at the mother-in-law and felt anxious. It was not suitable for them at home. He had to send them to the Marquis Mansion tomorrow.
Ye Liangkun said nothing. His face was gloomy. He once thought that he might use the death-free gold medal.
But he was unwilling to give in. He knew what the death-free gold medal meant to the Ye family, and now it was gone.
"Okay, let's all go back and rest. I'll take you back to Ye Mansion tomorrow."
Wang didn't sleep at night, she was scared now.
The next day, Ye Zong applied for sick leave but did not go to court.
Wang Shangshu came over before noon and was not embarrassed. Butler Ye took them into the study.
Ye Zongshen looked at the three people who came in, "You're here just in time, otherwise I would have someone send a letter of divorce to the Wang family."
"Master Marquis, what is this?" Wang Shangshu was very dissatisfied.
"I'm divorcing Mrs. Wang. It's written very clearly on it. You can read it for yourselves. Go and pack your dowry. You'd better not touch the things in my palace."
Ye Zongshen is not a stingy person. In fact, what Wang did was to harm the Ye family. In this case, she doesn't want anything from the Ye family. "Master Marquis, don't you think about your daughter?"
"No need to say anything, I wrote it clearly above.
Butler Ye, send Ye Liangkun to Kangyuan and arrange for a few people to take good care of him."
This is equivalent to putting Ye Liangkun under house arrest.
Looking at the servants behind him, Ye Liangkun knew that he had no room to resist now.
There were only three of them left in the study. It was convenient to say anything now.
"What will the Lord do to his concubine in the future?"
After Ye Zongshen thought about this problem, he no longer cares so much. We will talk about the future things later. Now it is impossible to expect a woman to make the Ye family stand up.
"Ye Zongshen, why did you divorce me?"
Ye Zongshen waved his hands. He didn't want to talk to him now.
Mrs. Wang looked at the divorce letter with a sad smile on her face.
I was divorced, and now I had nothing, and even more hopelessness.
"Does it have to be like this?" Wang Shangshu said with a frown.
"Yes, it must be like this. This is my explanation to the ancestors of the Ye family."
Wang Shangshu sighed. "Go and pack your things."
Wang left in despair, leaving only two people in the study.
"What's wrong with not having the knife hanging?"
"That shouldn't be the case. She stole the gold medal to avoid death.
Haha, you are really capable, you actually know where I put this thing?"
Wang Shangshu sighed. When he heard the news, he knew it would not be good. Wasn't that what he meant? He would be sent back immediately.
The two of them didn't say a word in the study. Ye Zongshen always frowned. He wanted to train the heir of the Ye family. It was better to establish a heir apparent, so that there would be fewer problems in the future.
Two hours later, Mrs. Wang packed up all her dowry. She really didn't bring anything belonging to the Ye family. It wasn't because she didn't want to, but because Butler Ye had been watching.
Ms. Wang thought that if she would do the same thing, she would know that she would not be forgiven. She did not expect that she would be so decisive and simply divorce herself.
But I don’t regret it, at least I saved my son’s life.
Seeing the frail eldest son Wang felt heartbroken. If the eldest son was fine, such a thing would never happen.
It was useless to say anything now. He looked at the boss looking at him coldly, turned his head and stopped looking.
The eldest son knows that he is dissatisfied with him, but he has already become like this, so why should he kill the second son? Then the eldest son's health will not be good.
