At eight o'clock in the evening, Jin Zhilin is brightly lit.
After dinner, Ye Fan told Tang Ruoxue and others about Tang Qiqi, and told everyone in Jin Zhilin to be careful when coming out recently.
Then, he sent a message to Cai Lingzhi.
Because of Mo Qianxiong and Ye Zhendong, Ye Fan had known Ye Tang for a long time, but he had only scratched the surface.
He always felt that he was too far away from Ye Tang, and he had a good relationship with Mo Qianxiong and others, so there was no need to inquire too much about Ye Tang.
But after meeting Li Hongchao today, Ye Fan felt that he had to get acquainted with him, otherwise he wouldn't even know if he was in trouble one day.
He made a pot of tea, drank it, and waited.
An hour later, a white BMW drove to Jin Zhilin's door.
The car door opened, and Cai Lingzhi, who was dressed in simple and elegant clothes with a pretty face and a calm face, got out, walked through the front hall and came to Ye Fan in a familiar way.
She picked up the tea that Ye Fan poured for herself, drank it in one gulp, and said with a smile, "Why are you so interested in Ye Tang all of a sudden?"
"A few hours ago, I beat up Wei Hongchao."
Ye Fan waved his hand for Cai Lingzhi to sit down: "I guess they hate me deeply. If I don't do some homework, how can I die without knowing it?"
"Ah, did you have a conflict with Wei Hongchao?"
Cai Lingzhi was slightly surprised: "He is one of the three young masters of Baocheng and the heir to the Wei family. Like Qin Jiutian and others, he has a background that cannot be underestimated."
"Weijia is engaged in high-tech technology such as drones. Its business spans the world, with more than 1.3 million employees and an annual turnover of 100 billion US dollars."
She added: "Wei Hongchao is still a die-hard supporter of Ye Forbidden City. If you move him, it will be far more troublesome than moving Ye Feiyang."
"Of course I know there is trouble, but if it happens again, I will still beat him up."
Ye Fan smiled lightly: "Come, tell me about them."
Seeing that Ye Fan was so calm, Cai Lingzhi also put away his dignity, looked at Ye Fan and asked: "Where to start?"
Ye Fan thought for a moment: "Let's start with Ye Tang."
"Mr. Ye, Ye Tianmen, is a commoner, but he is extremely intelligent and has excellent martial arts. He has become famous just one year after his debut."
Cai Lingzhi didn't talk nonsense. He took another sip of tea and spoke:
"At that time, he was known as the Three Heroes of China along with Chu Shuai, the founder of Truman, and Zhao Baidi, the founder of Hengdian."
"It's just that he has a free and easy nature and likes to explore. He feels that the land of China is not big enough to accommodate three dragons."
"And he is older than Chu Shuai and the others, so he can be considered a big brother."
"So he gave all the kingdoms he had conquered to Chu Shuai and Zhao Baidi."
"And he took a group of brothers out to work abroad."
"He took Baocheng as a foothold, and then fought eastward and westward, becoming the feared sword of China for countless forces and influencing more than a hundred countries."
"Of course, during this period, the full support of Chu Shuai and Zhao Baidi is indispensable. If you need people, give them money, and if you need money, give them money."
"In order to support Ye Tang in a battle with the Skull and Bones Society, both Trumen and Hengdian sent top experts to assist in the battle, and the casualties were extremely heavy."
"It is precisely because of the mutual support of Ye Tang, Chumen and Hengdian that China can maintain a relatively stable environment and become the cornerstone of the three major countries."
She sighed quietly: "It can be said that Ye Tianmen is an amazing person."
Ye Fan nodded lightly: "It is indeed worthy of respect."
"Ye Tianmen died early due to years of fighting, external and internal injuries, but he still left behind four sons and one daughter."
Cai Lingzhi sat up slightly and then continued to add:
"The four sons are Tianxu, Tianri, Tiandong, and Tiansheng, and the daughter is Ye Ruge, also known as Mrs. Zhao."
"On his deathbed, Mr. Ye did not pass the position to his eldest son Tianxu, who was the most vocal. Instead, he asked his third son Ye Tiandong to take over the position of Ye Tang, who had a strong army."
"The old man's prestige was at its peak at that time. Ye Tiandong also had a lot of achievements. He also married Zhao Mingyue, the daughter of Hengdian. He gave orders and everyone in Yetang obeyed."
"Although Ye Tianxu was disappointed, he finally accepted his father's arrangement. However, Mrs. Ye was very upset and always felt that Ye Tiandong had usurped the position of the eldest son."
There was a gleam in her eyes: "I can't help it. We have four sons and one daughter. The old lady is particularly partial to her eldest son who has a similar personality."
Ye Fan nodded lightly. With so many children, it would be difficult to even out a bowl of water.
"So Mrs. Ye not only dislikes her third son and daughter-in-law, but also relies on her status and qualifications to continue to seek benefits from Ye Tang for Ye Tianxu over the years."
Cai Lingzhi lowered his head and took a sip of tea:
"After Ye Tiandong gave birth to his son, the old lady was not only not happy at all, but also said that the young master was born with a rebellious appearance and that if he stayed in the Ye family, he would be in trouble."
"This is also the reason why the third wife, Zhao Mingyue, just returned to China to visit her relatives after her confinement."
"Of course, there is another reason for the rumors, and that is that the old lady and the third son have very different ideas."
"Ye Tiandong followed his father's last wish and worked hard to turn Ye Tang into a public weapon, but Mrs. Ye always believed that Ye Tang should be a private soldier."
"The country that the Ye family has built with their blood and lives should belong to the Ye family."
"Zhao Mingyue and Ye Tiandong have the same philosophy, so Mrs. Ye is extremely annoyed. She feels that she is trying to get a say in her marriage. By the way, even the young master despises her."
"It was during that visit to visit relatives that Zhao Mingyue was attacked by the enemy and lost his own flesh and blood."
"After Ye Tiandong's one-month-old son was lost and the search failed, she kept giving her eldest grandson Ye Jincheng to Ye Tiandong, hoping that Ye Jincheng would inherit Ye Tiandong's mantle."
"Zhao Mingyue was devastated when she lost her son. When she saw that the old lady didn't help to find her son and wanted to take advantage of her third son's lineage, she had a big fight with her."
"Ye Tiandong and several veterans intervened to stop the dispute."
"The two parties finally agreed that the old lady would give Zhao Mingyue eighteen years."
"If the lost son has not been found by then and she does not regenerate, Ye Jincheng will adopt him to the third room as his son."
"In another eight years, that is, this year, if there is no news, Zhao Mingyue should start transferring the three properties and shares to Ye Qingcheng one by one."
"Zhao Mingyue tried hard to find her son, but she couldn't find him. She searched all over Zhonghai and there was no trace of him. Eighteen years later, she gradually gave up."
"And she feels guilty after losing her child, so how can she be in the mood to have another one?"
"So she didn't argue with Mrs. Ye, and allowed the old lady to stuff Ye Qincheng into the third bedroom and become her nominal son."
"If there are no accidents this year, Sanfang's properties and shares will be transferred to Ye Jincheng one after another."
"In the past eight years, Ye Jincheng has not only achieved great results, but also made friends with powerful people. With the support of Cihang Yunzhai, it has also built up the young faction."
"Coupled with the resources of his biological father Ye Tianxu's lineage, if he gets the property and shares of Sanfang, he, the young master of Yetang, will definitely take charge of Yetang."
Cai Lingzhi's pretty face gained a hint of solemnity: "Maybe he will take the position earlier."
Ye Fan smiled faintly: "This Ye Forbidden City is really lucky. Not only was he born with a golden key in his mouth, he also picked up pies again and again."
"Actually, I'm a little curious. The eldest son Ye Tianxu was the most vocal at the time. Why didn't Mr. Ye let him take over?"
After all, he is also a legitimate son.
"Mr. Ye is still far-sighted."
Cai Lingzhi had obviously known about this topic before, so he took it up without hesitation:
"Yetang had conquered the country at that time, and many elites had died in several bloody battles. At that time, the stabilizing results were far more important than development."
"The eldest son Ye Tianxu is radical and ambitious. If he is allowed to take charge of Yetang, he is likely to continue to advance rashly, at least losing troops and generals, and at worst, all previous achievements will be wasted."
"It's easy to conquer a country but hard to defend it."
"So Mr. Ye thought about it for a week and finally let his enlightened but steady third son take over."
"Facts have proven that this decision was also the right one."
"Over the years since Ye Tiandong took over, Ye Tang not only maintained his authority, but also digested all the results of the battle."
"He turned Ye Tang's intimidating influence on various countries in the past into a smooth and silent support and penetration. In the past 20 years, he has brought more benefits to China than his father's generation."
"Furthermore, Ye Tiandong also encourages newcomers to take the lead to avoid being left behind when power is excessive. Otherwise, how can the young faction of Ye Forbidden City easily rise?"
"Of course, the current development of the Young Boys may go against his original intention, but it still proves that he is an enlightened and qualified successor."
She chuckled:
"I just don't know if Ye Jincheng will take over in the future and ruin his hard work over the years..."
