Chapter Thirty-Two: Ye Shuang (Part 2)

  After Chen Ye left, the room was quiet for a long time!

  "Master Gongzi, it seems that Young Master Chen still has a lot to say in his heart?" Liu Ruo's pretty face showed a few hints of unease.

  The young man nodded, his slightly cold face suddenly becoming extremely ferocious and terrifying: "In these years, Tie Yitian has been in Yuanyu Mountain, I've been hiding in Huacai Pool. It seems that the two of us have been bearing the pressure from others, carrying too many unexplained things, but the most miserable one is still Chen Ye!"

  "He wasn't that there were many things he hadn't said, but rather, he didn't know how to say them in order to alleviate the pain in his heart...... So, he buried it deep down."

  "Master Gongzi!" Liu Ruo's voice was soft as she grasped the young man's hands, her eyes filled with compassion. "Chen Xiao has come to find you now, and from now on, you won't have to be so lonely, so heartbroken. And you brothers can finally reunite."

  Upon hearing this, the young man sneered coldly and said: "If that's the case, you don't know that nowadays, even though Chenn Ye has regained his confidence and feels capable, he wouldn't have come looking for me unless he thought I wouldn't be implicated, how could it be so simple?"

  "Since he entered the Huqingchi, he silently sat in a corner, appearing somewhat isolated from the world. This already showed that in his heart, there were still many concerns."

  "As a young master of a wealthy family, he never drank before, but today, he has had quite a few drinks, which shows that his heart has never been calm."

  "Really!"

  The young man sighed heavily: "If it was something that could be solved by one person, Chen Ye would never come to me, because he never wanted to implicate his brothers. The fact that he came today shows that the pressure he's been under has become too much for him to bear."

  "But that's all, from what he said about the imperial capital situation, I knew he just wanted me to help solve the troubles in the imperial city, because of these troubles, anyway, in the end, Ye and I are unavoidable, so he came. Otherwise, when I finally couldn't bear it and took action, he would be unable to face my anger."

  "To be honest, if I weren't in the Imperial City, he absolutely wouldn't have dragged me, his brother, into this mess."

  "Chen Xiao is a young master who values relationships and righteousness. As his older brother, you should be very pleased to have such a sibling." Liu Ruo said softly.

  The young man couldn't help but smile wryly: "He's too sentimental! Sometimes, I wish he were a bit more heartless. That way, all these years wouldn't have been so lonely for him... now..."

  The young man's face turned cold, and he said in a chilly tone: "He is the third brother, Chen Yuan. Although we are not born of the same mother, we share the same roots. The Chen family is different from my Ye family. In our household, at most, it's just brothers competing for a position of power. But Old Master Wang was feared by the current emperor, and what they were fighting for..."

  "It was like this, when I first left home, on the one hand, there was a huge change in Chen Ye, I wanted to find a peaceful environment to cultivate and do something for him, but also because of the struggle for power in the family that made me feel uninterested... ...and today's Chen Ye, what he has endured is many times more than what I did back then!"

  "The pain in his heart!"

  "In the eyes of young people, suddenly there are endless cold lights shooting out: "Second prince, Long Sun family, Tong family, Wu family... Because of many years of hiding, I wonder if the people in the imperial city have almost forgotten me, Ye Shuo?"

  "Brother, I understand what you mean, but since we're going to do it, let's do it to the best of our abilities... Just that!"

  At this point, the young man slowly turned around, looked at Liu Rushi, and said softly: "Rushi, the peaceful days of the past few years will not be there for a long time. Perhaps, in this life, the quiet years of guarding each other will also disappear."

  "I'm really sorry, the promise I made to you can't be fulfilled for now, and I'll have to trouble you again."

  Liu Ru nodded slightly and said, "It's already a blessing to have received your love in this life. You can go ahead and swagger through the imperial city, I'll take good care of this home for you, waiting for the day when you can reunite with your brothers here and we can once again share wine and joy!"

  "This home will naturally stay here, but if so, you shouldn't stay in the capital anymore."

  "Master?" Liu Ruo was startled: "Master, no matter what, I don't want to leave you."

  The young man suddenly smiled and said: "Who says I want you to leave me? It's just that I want you to leave the Imperial City. This way, I will have fewer entanglements..."

  "Young master, I have the power to protect myself."

  "I know, but you're my woman and I don't want these big waves to affect you. If so, the emperor will change, and it's a big change. Next time, it won't be just an ordinary struggle between wealthy families. With a little carelessness, death is not just that simple for one or two people."

  This struggle, due to the circumstances, involved too many people, and it was indeed the Second Prince and the Changsun family who joined forces against Chen Ye, but who would not know that at this moment, any action against the Chen family in the past can get enough support from the Emperor.

  Chen Ye has made sufficient preparations, let Chen Yuan bring the message to the Second Prince. It's just a struggle among the younger generation. However, the identity of the Second Prince is not ordinary after all. If he loses, what will be lost is the dignity of the imperial family. At that time, it would be impossible for the imperial family to have no reaction at all!

  On the surface, whether or not the elder members of the Chen family will resist, the Chen family is a minister of the Great China. Unless Old Master Chen openly rebels, there are some actions of the imperial court that the Chen family cannot help but endure!

  At this time, Chen Ye understood the truth and determined the nature of the struggle. The young people in their hearts also knew that the so-called nature was just a facade. If things were to end with the imperial family having to hold someone accountable for the failure of the second prince, then unless they could make up their minds to leave Dahua, someone would have to take responsibility!

  Taking on this responsibility may mean death... My brothers can't get into trouble, and Chen Ye still has his own affairs to attend to. In the end, all the responsibilities will be borne by myself.

  "It's exactly so, that's why I want to stay with you, Master. No matter where you are, I will follow." Liu Ru said firmly, and she also understood what the young man was thinking in his heart.

  The young man smiled, holding the delicate hand of Liu Ruo Si, and said: "You are not in the Imperial Capital, which not only makes me feel more at ease, but also gives me a sense of attachment. Because you are waiting for me in the distance, I will not be willing to let myself die. In the Great Hua Empire, others may betray, but I, Ye Shuo, have no scruples!"

  "Your Excellency!"

  Liu Ruxi looked up and batted her eyelashes: "Young Master, let me serve you tonight!"

  Night, gradually deepened, the imperial capital's various long streets, were empty and deserted. It was just before dawn, when suddenly, dozens of black figures flashed out from the darkness, then dispersed in all directions towards the four sides of the imperial city!
