Chapter 52 Divorce

The Ye Mansion, which was still slightly depressed just now, was about to collapse in a blink of an eye, and the danger was imminent. This change came too quickly, and people were caught off guard. The people passing by saw the officers coming and going, heard the loud cries, so they all gathered around to watch.

“Why did the Ye family even have the plaque removed? This doesn’t seem like a petty fight!”

“Hey, don’t you know? The Ye family relied on Ye Jieyu‘s favor, so they always acted wildly. Now they have stabbed the hornet’s nest and make the Emperor Teacher impeach them! There are thirty-two charges, and they are all posted on the notice in front of the gate of Minister of Justice office, go and see for yourself, there are a few Confucian scholars there to recite for free.”

“Minister of Justice office is too far, I’m too lazy to run, you can tell me.”

“Yes, yes, you can tell everyone.” The gossipy people quickly echoed.

The well-informed person recounted the cause and effect triumphantly, and concluded at the end, “Speaking of which, it was the red coral that caused the disaster. You said that you are worried about your two grandchildren, afraid that they will be bullied by their stepmother, at once stuffed in a shu daughter as a concubine, why are you so brazen? Isn’t it obvious that you tried to embarrass the Emperor Teacher Mansion? That’s just great, the Emperor Teacher Mansion doesn’t use a normal move, but one move will kill you!”

“Tsk tsk tsk, the literati’s methods are truly terrifying! Even doing personal vendetta to this point!” A Confucian scholar shook his head and sighed.

Didn’t know who spit in the back, and shouted loudly, “You fucking knows fart! The Emperor Teacher not only impeached Ye Quanyong, but also impeached the emperor, saying that he indulged his foreign relatives and bring disaster for the common people, the emperor then issued a decree to strictly investigate the Ye family, otherwise it’s unknown until when the Ye family will be rampant. Do you think Ye Quanyong is a good person? I tell you, the Ye family doesn’t have any good thing! In the past, a large area of Gejia village in the western suburbs was forcibly occupied by the Ye family who allied with some officials, the emperor clearly issued a decree, exempting the common people of Great Wei from paying taxes for three years, the people in  ten miles and eight villages should have all benefited from this, but at Ye family’s land, the rent were still collected like before, they still recruited forced labor like before, coupled with summer floods and severe cold in winter, the grains could not be harvested, to the point the villagers of Gejia starve to death and freeze to death. Walking a little closer to that place, all I saw was red earth and white bones, really a desolate place! Some villagers couldn’t stand it anymore, they were going to the capital to sue to the imperial court, but they were beaten to death by the minions sent by the Ye family, and they were thrown into the mountains to feed the wolves. What kind of good thing is Ye mansion? Just a bunch of fucking beasts! If there is no Emperor Teacher, they will still rely on the emperor and Ye Jieyu‘s power, and it’s unknown how long they will run rampant, and it’s unknown how many people they will harm. Emperor Teacher is eliminating evil for the people, enforce justice on behalf of Heaven!”

The man cried bitterly as he spoke, showing that there were a lot of grievances in his heart.

Someone next to him whispered, “Yes, yes, eight to nine out of ten beggars in Yanjing are from the Gejia village. When they saw the plaque of the Ye family from a distance, they avoid it. They are very afraid! ”

“More than that! There used to be a very prosperous cloth shop in Willow Lane. The dyed cloth is colorful and does not fade for a long time. It’s very popular with powerful people and nobles. Completely different patterns are embroidered on both sides of the silk, and even if people turn it over and over in their hands, they can’t find any flaws. Because of the unique skills of the dyeing and embroidery, someone from the Department of Internal Affairs took a fancy to them and wanted to choose them as imperial merchants and specialize in tribute weaving, but the news was intercepted by the Ye Mansion, and the nine members of the family of the owner of cloth shop were forced to death by some dirty means, the family property and secret methods were forcibly seized, they really have no conscience!”
