Yanjing, this city has been the capital of the emperor since ancient times. Even after the founding of the Republic, it still regarded it as the heart of the entire Huaxia Kingdom. [ ]
In the decades since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has not only led the country's governance, economy, and culture, but has also led to high consumption and high housing prices in recent years.
In this place where every inch of land is at a premium, except for large families such as the Ye family and the Wang family, which can build their own family estates outside, most of the other small families buy commercial villas.
The only difference from ordinary rich people may be that the location of the house they live in is better.
As for the Xie family, which is not very conspicuous among many small families, it is rare to have a small manor villa.
Of course, all this is thanks to Xie Fusheng, Chen Yan's grandfather, who is known as Xie Madman.
One of them was still shouting on his deathbed: Give me twenty years, and the Xie family will be as good as the Ye family.
Regarding this senior of the Xie family, Ye Huang could not say that the other party's words were a bit wishful thinking, but he still felt a little regretful about the latter's unfulfilled ambition.
If the old man could live a few more years, even one year, I'm afraid the Xie family's current trajectory would not be the same.
The family fortune was almost completely ruined, but the patriarch of the family rebelled against his relatives, and side clans seized power.
The Xie family, which was originally expected to join the upper-middle class society in Yanjing under Xie Fusheng's hands, was so overwhelmed by the dual pressures from within and outside the family that it was almost impossible to survive in Western Sichuan.
If he and Chen Yan hadn't met, if Wang Anyi hadn't attacked Chen Yan, if it hadn't been for the Ye family's help to the Xie family.
I'm afraid the Xie family has long since ceased to exist in name only.
It can be said that for the Xie family, apart from Chen Yan himself, Ye Huang did not have much interest or affection for anyone else.
In his view, a man could squander his father's family fortune, which he had worked hard for decades to earn, in just ten years, and in the end even had to marry off his daughter to save the fate of the entire family.
He is neither a good son nor a good father.
But at this moment, Ye Huang still had to face the other party.
When Ye Huang and Chen Yan left Ye's house, Chen Yan called his parents and brother.
Therefore, when Emperor Ye arrived at this small manor located in the east city of Yanjing, members of the direct line of the Xie family had already been waiting for a long time.
There are not many people, only a few people chatting,
Chen Yan's father Xie Zhenting, mother, brother Xie Heluo, plus several servants of the Xie family.
As for the descendants of the Xie family, Emperor Ye did not see any of them.
In this situation, Ye Huang was not surprised at all.
Before coming here, his aunt called Ye Huang and explained the situation of the Xie family to herself.
Although the Xie family had been brought back to life through the care of the Ye family a few months ago, their vitality was still severely damaged.
The so-called collateral members of the Xie family were originally waiting for Chen Yan to marry Wang Anyi and make a fortune from it, but unexpectedly they fell through the cracks.
Naturally, they placed this debt on this good-for-nothing head of the family.
After a big fuss, they all left. Within a few months, except for a few collective attempts to force Xie Zhenting into the palace, they had never set foot in this house.
It can be said that the relationship between the Xie family, Xie Zhenting, his father and his son, and the Xie family's collateral lines have reached a situation where they are completely incompatible with each other.
In Ye Qingmei's words, the current Xie family is more like the Wang family than the Xie family.
After hearing what his aunt said, Emperor Ye could only smile bitterly.
No matter how powerful the Ye family is, they cannot meddle in the internal affairs of the Xie family casually. There are unwritten rules in it.
Moreover, the reason for helping the Xie family was because of Emperor Ye, but the Ye family is a big commercial family after all, and everything must be repaid.
The Xie family cannot give anything in return to the Ye family, and the Ye family's help will naturally not be endless.
In the end, the Xie family's affairs have to be resolved by themselves. If Xie Zhenting, Xie Heluo and his father and son cannot turn the tide and rectify the entire Xie family, then it is foreseeable that it is only a matter of time before the Xie family's demise.
"Chen Yan, Mr. Ye, you are here. Come into the house quickly."
Standing in front of the door and watching Ye Huang pull his daughter out of the car, Xie Zhenting narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a glint of light.
"Three months ago, the life of the Xie family was at stake. The Xie family suddenly received help from unknown forces. At that time, Xie Zhenting was still confused. When his son He Luo brought Ye Huang's promise from Yucheng, he was shocked."
Especially when his son said that Emperor Ye was probably from the Ye family, he still couldn't believe it.
But then, the Wang family's retreat and the Xie family's assets regrouped, finally making Xie Zhenting believe this.
However, at that time, Xie Zhenting still believed that Emperor Ye was just the son of a relatively large branch of the Ye family, and did not speculate about the direct lineage of the Ye family.
Because at that time, Xie Zhenting knew that the Ye family only had two grandsons, one was missing and the other was useless.
According to the news from Heluo, it is obvious that his daughter's boyfriend cannot be the useless grandson of the Ye family.
However, just a few days ago, his daughter Chenyan's phone call made Xie Zhenting like his daughter Xu in front of him.
The biological grandson of Ye Chao Chao, the head of the Ye family, and the biological son of Ye Zhiqiu, the second eldest son of the Ye family, just think about these two identities.
Xie Zhenting was extremely excited.
Xie Zhenting knew in his heart that even if the young man in front of him was a good-for-nothing, his title as the grandson of the Ye Dynasty was enough to drive the entire wealthy ladies in Yanjing City crazy.
And these are not counting the current Ye Huang's own strength in Yucheng, as well as the strength of his grandfather.
Regarding the son-in-law in front of him, Xie Zhenting can be said to be happy with him no matter how he looks at him.
In fact, not only Xie Zhenting, but Chen Yan's mother and brother Xie Heluo were all looking at Ye Huang with smiles on their faces.
"Dad, mom, big brother..."
"Uncle, aunt, eldest brother..."
Chen Yan and Ye Huang agreed at the same time.
"It's windy and cold outside. Let's talk inside first."
Xie Zhenting nodded and said to Emperor Ye with a smile.
Ye Huang nodded, then took Chen Yan's hand and followed Xie Zhenting slowly into the house.
The place that Xie Fusheng earned in his early years is large and the location is not bad.
However, after walking in, Ye Huang found that the buildings were somewhat dilapidated, especially the lawns that were bald in many places, as if they had not been managed well.
"In the past few years, my father has invested all his money in the family business. This house is so abandoned that the family is almost dead, so naturally he has no intention of doing these facade projects."
Xie Heluo, who was walking beside Ye Huang, explained to Ye Huang.
After hearing what he said, Emperor Ye nodded and said nothing.
