Chapter 529: Making matters worse
After Wei Ruo got married, she brought many people with her whenever she came back to the Wei family, firstly to help out, and secondly, just in case. But this time, the people she brought finally came in handy.
Mrs. Wei looked at the battle and sighed: "Can't Princess Rui really be accommodating for the sake of an old woman like me?"
Wei Ruo looked at Mrs. Wei and felt something in her heart. She knew what Mrs. Wei was worried about, but there were some things she had to do today.
She had intended to take this opportunity to draw a clear line with Wei Qingwan, Erfang and others, and this incident would be a good opportunity to cause trouble.
Mrs. Wei continued: "Today is your grandfather's seventieth birthday. He cares most about the family's reputation. When this incident came out, it hit him hard. He has never been in good health. Leave this matter to me. If it is determined that this is Bai's nonsense, I will ask your second uncle to divorce her."
Wei Ruozheng was about to speak to show that he would not relent, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the door.
“The old lady and the third young master are here!”
The guard guarding the door shouted into the door that he didn't know whether to open the door for the third young master.
"Yichen? Why is this child here?"
Mrs. Wei was shocked and suspicious. She looked at the door of the courtyard. Before she could think about whether to let Wei Yichen in, she saw that it had been forcibly opened from the outside.
Wei Yichen broke in through the door, followed by a group of guards.
Seeing him walking quickly towards the house, Mrs. Wei asked, "Chen'er, why are you here?"
“Grandma, my grandson heard that someone was doing dirty things in the backyard today, so I came here to arrest him.” Wei Yichen clasped his hands and replied respectfully.
But his face was stern and his eyes were as cold as ice.
Mrs. Wei, Yunshi, and Baishi were all shocked.
Even Wei Ruo couldn't help but feel surprised, why did Wei Yichen come here?
After the incident, Yun immediately blocked the news. How could someone who was in the front yard and was supposed to be drinking and talking with the men at home know what happened in the backyard?
Madam Wei asked: "Arrest people? Who do you want to arrest? Where to arrest them?"
Wei Yichen replied: "Catch Wei Bai, who used medicine to harm people in the backyard, and take him to the government office and deal with him impartially."
"What?" Madam Wei, Yunshi, and Baishi were shocked again.
What Wei Yichen wants is exactly the same as what Wei Ruo wants!
Yunshi reprimanded loudly: "Yichen, why are you following this nonsense? If this matter is reported to the official, our Wei family will lose all face, and your sister will have no shame to stay in Prince Yu's Mansion. You Is this going to destroy the Wei family?"
Wei Ruo has always been deviant, and when she did this regardless of the overall situation, it was still expected by everyone, but now how come even Wei Yichen has such thoughts?
“If you don’t know, you have to do it yourself. Face is not earned by covering up, but by one’s own abilities.” Wei Yichen replied expressionlessly.
Immediately he ordered the guards to take the people.
“Stop! Stop everyone!” Mrs. Wei scolded.
However, the people brought by Wei Yichen did not obey the old lady's orders.
"You...you don't even listen to me?" Mrs. Wei was anxious and annoyed.
"Grandma, there is no need to embarrass them. They followed us all the way north from the Wei family in Taizhou Prefecture. They were the subordinates trained by my father. Now they only obey my father and me." Wei Yichen replied.
After saying this, Wei Yichen stopped arguing with Mrs. Wei and Mr. Yun, and watched with indifference as the people he brought dragged away Mr. Bai and Wei Qingwan.
Wei Qingwan was not yet awake, so she let others manipulate her in a daze.
Mrs. Wei ordered other servants in the courtyard: "Come here, stop them!"
Other guards in the uncle's mansion obeyed orders and clashed with the guards brought by Wei Yichen. "Miss, what should we do?" Xiumei asked Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo thought for a moment and then said: "We don't have to take action. Wei Yichen has already secured the victory. It makes no difference whether we take action or not."
“Yes.” Xiumei and Lin Fang accepted the order.
As expected, the ordinary servants of the uncle's house who took orders from Mrs. Wei were no match for the people brought by Wei Yichen. There was a difference between the thugs and guards in the ordinary house and those who had been professionally trained and had been on the battlefield.
Soon the ordinary servants in the mansion were subdued by Wei Yichen's people.
Following Bai's shrill scream, she and Wei Qingwan were both taken out of Yifang Pavilion, while Mrs. Wei and Yun were stopped in Yifang Pavilion.
"Yichen! You are going to destroy the Wei family!" Yun rushed to Wei Yichen and grabbed his arms with both hands.
"Mother, you should stop suffering from the chaos. Some things must be settled before you can gain a chance of survival." Wei Yichen said solemnly.
"I don't understand what you are saying. I only know that if you do this, everyone in the Wei family will be hurt, and Wanwan will be pushed into a situation of no return! You and Wanwan grew up together, even if there have been There is a rift, even if you no longer have a brother-sister relationship with her, you can't be so cruel and push her into hell!" Yun said with tears streaming down her face.
However, Wei Yichen did not waver at all. He watched Yun's tears streaming down his cheeks expressionlessly, and still insisted on himself: "Please relax, mother, some things are inevitable."
“Yichen, you...”
Yunshi looked at Wei Yichen blankly, feeling dizzy, chest tight and short of breath.
Cuiping hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
Mrs. Wei stared at Wei Yichen's determined face and felt dazed for a moment.
After a long time, Mrs. Wei let out a long sigh: "Chen'er, you have a great plan!"
Wei Yichen looked at the elderly lady, his cold eyes loosened a little.
He knew that the old lady had probably guessed his intention.
Wei Yichen said: "Grandma, I'm sorry, there are some things my grandson must do. I frightened you today. When the matter is over, my grandson will come to Shou'an Hall to receive the punishment."
Mrs. Wei sighed and shook her head: "I am old. It is a good thing that the Wei family has a person like you in your generation."
After saying that, Mrs. Wei asked her maid to help her go back.
"Let's go, help me back. I'm tired, and I can't take care of so much in the house."
Mrs. Wei walked heavily and left Yifang Pavilion step by step.
Wei Yichen then ordered people to send Yun away: "Cuiping, send your wife back to Anxin Pavilion."
Cuiping did as he was told.
Yun was exhausted mentally and physically, her eyes were red. Before she was taken away, she was pleading for Wei Qingwan: "Yichen, you shouldn't do this! You will destroy Wanwan! Please spare her..."
Wei Yichen's face was expressionless, indifferent and decisive, and he didn't even look at Yunshi.
After Yun was taken down, apart from the servants, Wei Ruo and Wei Yichen were the only ones left in Yifang Pavilion.
Wei Ruo walked up to Wei Yichen and asked the doubts in his heart: "What happened today was your fault, right?"
