Chapter 264 Let’s go to see uncle together

Mrs. Ye still wanted to stay, but Mrs. Ye pulled her arm and didn't let her speak anymore. Instead, she said with a smile: "Then I'll see you two off."

Mrs. Ye didn't say anything when she heard this.

Tonight's banquet ended on bad terms.

It's useless to force him to stay.

Song Shiyun and Xie Ru left the Ye family with Mrs. Ye seeing them off.

After getting into the carriage, Xie Rugu glanced at Song Shiyun and said to the driver outside: "Let's go to the Phoenix Tower."

Song Shiyun couldn't help but look at Xie Rugu.

Xie Rugu smiled lightly and said, "Second sister didn't eat much at night, so let's go get some more."

When Song Shiyun heard this, he said harshly: "I don't feel hungry..."

Xie Rugu chuckled softly and said cooperatively: "Well, I didn't eat much. I'm hungry. How about the second sister staying with me?"

How could Song Shiyun not know that this man was teasing him.

She coughed and pretended not to know: "Okay, since I owe the prince a favor, I will accompany him. It can be considered as a favor that I have repaid."

Xie Ruyi raised his eyebrows, "Second sister, it's too simple to return a favor, isn't it?"

Song Shiyun looked at him sideways, "If the prince doesn't want to, then I'd better go back home."

Xie Ru smiled and shook his head, "That's all, as long as the second sister is willing to show her favor."

Song Shiyun curled his lips and hummed proudly.

Seeing the proud cat-like look on her face, Xie Ru smiled silently and did not try to expose her.

The carriage went to the Phoenix Tower.

inside at the same time.

After Ye Shoufu took Ye Bingyi into the study, he opened the skylight and spoke openly, telling Ye Bingyi exactly what Song Shiyun had said to him before.

When Ye Bingyi heard this, he exploded, "Impossible! How is this possible?"

Ye Shoufu raised his hand and pressed it down to signal him to calm down, and then said: "I will only talk to you about this matter. I will send someone to investigate the Zhang family. You can also send someone to investigate privately. Before there is conclusive evidence, you don’t have to believe it, and don’t question Mr. Zhang, so as not to alert the enemy.”

What else did Ye Bingyi want to say.

But Ye Shoufu frowned and said: "Bingyi, I know what you want to say, and I also know what you are thinking. When I heard what the second lady said, I was just like you. I didn't want to believe it, but who should I believe? If so, I don’t even believe that the evidence is useful.”

He looked at Ye Bingyi and reminded.

"You are also an official. You should understand this. You should also have some authority and know what should be said to the outside world and what should not be said to the outside world."

Ye Bingyi's face turned pale.

Of course he understood what Ye Shoufu meant.

He also knew that Ye Shoufu was doing it for his own good.

But he really didn't want to believe that Zhang would harm him...

However, if you think about it carefully, Zhang Shilong's life lies between him and Zhang.

Ye Bingyi looked a little dazed when he thought about this.

How he left the study room, he didn't know.

When he came to his senses again, the man had already entered the carriage waiting outside.

Mrs. Zhang was in the carriage, waiting anxiously for Ye Bingyi.

Seeing Ye Bingyi come in, Mrs. Zhang saw that his face was not very good, and her heart trembled, and she asked tentatively: "Officer, does uncle have anything important to do with you?"

Ye Bingyi heard Zhang's words, slowly raised his head and looked at Zhang.

As soon as he saw Zhang's face, his mind was filled with what Ye Shoufu said before.

He almost wanted to open his mouth and ask Zhang directly if there were those things.

Is it like what Ye Shoufu and Song Shiyun said?

but……

He can't ask.

Just like what Ye Shoufu said, there is no evidence. Asking Zhang directly like this is undoubtedly to scare the snake and give Zhang a chance to escape guilt.

If all this really has nothing to do with Zhang, then that's it.

If Mrs. Zhang is really the mastermind behind the scenes, she is undoubtedly feeding a tiger into trouble and digging a hole to bury herself.

Now, he can only pretend to know nothing!
Thinking of this, Ye Bingyi took a deep breath, calmed down all the expressions on his face and the questions that were about to blurt out, and said as calmly as possible: "It's nothing, it's all matters in the court."

Mrs. Zhang looked at him and said, "Is there anything you want to talk about alone in the court?"

Ye Bingyi glanced at her impatiently, "There are a lot of disputes in the court, so naturally we can't discuss them casually. You, a woman, don't understand anything, so don't ask!" Seeing Ye Bingyi's irritated face, but didn't say anything else, Mrs. Zhang paused for a moment. The ground felt a little more at ease.

Ye Bingyi is actually a person who is not very good at hiding his emotions.

If Ye Shoufu had come to him just now and really said something about her, Ye Bingyi would definitely not be like this.

According to his temperament, he might have exploded long ago.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhang was not angry at Ye Bingyi's words, but comforted: "I don't understand the matters in the court. It is up to the officials to consider it. After all, it is the officials themselves who stand in the court. What is the court? Only the officials themselves know what the situation is, and they have to make their own decisions on everything."

Ye Bingyi heard the subtext in Zhang's words. He looked at Zhang, suppressed his emotions, lowered his head, and looked like he was deep in thought.

Mrs. Zhang thought he was still hesitating about whether to go to Huainan Road, so she said nothing more.

Ye Bingyi looked at Mrs. Zhang and lowered his head. All he was thinking about was what Ye Shoufu had just said.

He was a little shaken at the moment and didn't know whether he should believe Ye Shoufu's words...

Soon, they returned to Ye's house.

Ye Bingyi made an excuse that he had to think more about the Huainan Road matter, and went straight to the study.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang felt a little uneasy.

After she returned to her house, she called the dowry maid over and asked her to quietly go back to her natal Zhang family through the back door.

She felt that the plan on Huainan Road might be cancelled.

This matter needs to be discussed with the Zhang family... and that person.

After Mrs. Zhang ordered the maid, she sat down in the room uneasily, waiting for the news.

However, Mrs. Zhang didn't know that the maid she sent out was caught by the people sent by Ye Shoufu as soon as she came out of the back door of Ye's house and sent directly to Ye Shoufu's study.

Ye Bingyi was also a little uneasy. He sat in the study for half the night, and finally went to Zhang's room.

When he arrived, Mrs. Zhang was anxious and wanted to go out.

Ye Bingyi saw that Mrs. Zhang had also changed into a black dress and a cloak of the same color.

He couldn't help but be a little surprised, "It's so late, where is Madam going?"

Ms. Zhang didn't expect to see Ye Bingyi here. Her face turned pale and she forced out a stiff smile, "You... officer, why are you here so late?"

Ye Bingyi stared at Mrs. Zhang closely, "Madam, you know it's very late, but you still want to go out?"

Mrs. Zhang glanced at her clothes, looked a little flustered, and quickly explained: "I, I don't want to go out, I just thought that the official is thinking about something in the study, and may need to prepare some midnight snacks, I, I am I want to make some midnight snacks for the officials..."

Ye Bingyi narrowed his eyes, "Do you need to dress like this to make a late-night snack? Madam, do you think that I am a three-year-old child and can be coaxed so easily?"

Zhang's face was pale, and her mind was blank for a moment.

She really didn't expect that Ye Bingyi would come over so late...

Normally at this hour, Ye Bingyi would not come over, but he would stay somewhere else and would not come over again that night.

She didn't wait until the maid came back, and then she wanted to go out and have a look.

Unexpectedly, I would meet Ye Bingyi...

Zhang's mind was spinning rapidly, but she couldn't figure out how to deal with it.

After all, the way she was dressed really didn't make sense.

At this moment, Ye Bingyi's housekeeper walked in from outside and said, "Sir, the chief assistant is here."

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she didn't relax for a moment. Instead, her mind went blank and she had a bad feeling in her heart.

Ye Bingyi turned to look at the housekeeper and had some guesses in his mind: "Uncle is here?"

Ye Bingyi asked: "Only uncle?"

When the housekeeper heard this, he looked at Ms. Zhang.

This glance made Zhang feel cold all over.

The housekeeper lowered his head and whispered: "Not only... but also the maid Yunxia next to Madam."

Zhang's whole body swayed and she almost fainted.

The bad feeling in my heart reached its peak.

Hearing this, Ye Bingyi knew that Ye Shoufu must have some evidence to come here so late.

He glanced at the pale Zhang, pursed his lips, and said, "Take madam and go see your uncle together!"

After finishing speaking, he flicked his sleeves and walked out first.

The housekeeper looked at Mrs. Zhang, waved to the other women in the corridor, and asked them to follow Mrs. Zhang, who had weak legs.
