Ye Yuting noticed Huangfu Xian's look of disgust and burst into tears on the spot, "Wuwu, Xian, it was Ye Feiran, that good-for-nothing, who set me up, really, wuwu."
Ye Feiran crossed her arms and looked at Ye Yuting, who was sitting on the ground, and slowly spoke, "Second Sister, you keep calling me a good-for-nothing. So, how could a good-for-nothing set up a genius like you?"
The onlookers all agreed with Ye Feiran's question.
"That's right, that's right. Ye Miss is just an ordinary person, while Ye Second Miss is at the ninth level of Qi cultivation. How could she set you up?"
"Ah, could it be that Ye Second Miss was caught in a compromising situation with two men and is deliberately framing Ye Miss? Poor Ye Miss, truly, the weak are always bullied!"
"How can Lord Ye and Lady Ye treat Ye Miss like this? Do they deserve the old Lord Ye and the deceased elder brother and sister-in-law?"
Ye Hai's eyelid twitched, and he forced a smile, "Everyone, it's really a misunderstanding. Don't speculate. Go back quickly! We Ye family will handle our own affairs."
Ye Feiran sneered inwardly.
Handle it at home? How could that be possible!
Ye Yuting has staged such a big drama; if she doesn't make good use of it, how can she do justice to the original owner who died unjustly?
"Second Uncle, I am the legitimate daughter of the Ye family. Now that I have been framed, shouldn't you, as the acting head of the family, handle it properly? Otherwise, how will you explain it to Grandfather when he returns?"
"I..."
Ye Hai was immediately speechless, and his gaze toward Ye Feiran finally changed.
This good-for-nothing has indeed changed, but he absolutely cannot let her succeed.
Huangfu Xian lowered his eyes, a glint of intelligence flashing in them, and said with his hands behind his back, "Lord Ye, handle this matter in front of everyone. I, the Crown Prince, have other matters to attend to and must leave."
With that, Huangfu Xian turned and left in large strides. He didn't want to get involved in this mess and tarnish his reputation.
Ye Feiran looked at Huangfu Xian's back and sneered inwardly. Royal descendants have always been the most unfeeling!
Huangfu Xian, this scoundrel, she would deal with him later.
Ye Hai watched Huangfu Xian leave, his hands clenching and unclenching, "Danye, if Yuting really framed you, according to family law, Yuting's cultivation will be stripped, and she will be sent to a separate courtyard, never to step into the Ye family again."
"Ha!" Ye Feiran laughed lightly, crossing her arms, "Second Uncle, Ye Yuting has already admitted it. Is there any 'if'?"
Ye Hai took a deep breath, suppressing his emotions, and said through gritted teeth, "I hereby announce that Ye Yuting framed her cousin, with clear evidence. Her cultivation is to be stripped. Bring Ye Yuting to the Punishment Hall immediately."
"Lord!" Lady Zhu looked at Ye Hai disapprovingly, blocking Ye Yuting.
Ye Hai gave Lady Zhu a subtle look.
Lady Zhu was taken aback, then immediately burst into tears.
"Wuwu~ Lord, you can't treat Yuting like this."
At the same time, two Ye family guards had already taken the already despairing Ye Yuting back to the Ye residence.
Then, Ye Hai looked at the surrounding civilians and said, "Everyone, I have handled this matter according to family law. Please disperse!"
Ye Feiran's beautiful eyes swept over Ye Hai, then looked at the surrounding civilians and said with a smile, "Everyone, Danye thanks you for your help today. However, Danye has one more thing to ask all of you to witness."
"Miss Ye, no need to be polite. This is what we should do."
"Miss Ye, please speak. We can all witness it."
The surrounding civilians looked at Ye Feiran with bright smiles and spoke up.
Seeing this, Ye Hai almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Why does a good-for-nothing like Ye Feiran deserve so much love from the people?
"Second Uncle, you look so angry. Are you angry with Danye?" Ye Feiran looked at Ye Hai with a half-smile.
Being hit where it hurt, Ye Hai's expression worsened.
However, thinking about the need to handle Ye Yuting's matter and not knowing what Ye Feiran was up to, he forced a stiff smile.
"Danye, how could Second Uncle be angry with you? You're overthinking it. Look at your dirty clothes, go change quickly!"
Ye Feiran had been watching Ye Hai and naturally didn't miss the flash of killing intent in his eyes. A slight smile curved her lips.
"Second Uncle, I have something to discuss with you."
Ye Hai's eyelid twitched, and he looked at Ye Feiran warily, "Speak."
"I want to reclaim everything that belongs to me as the legitimate daughter of the Ye family." Ye Feiran said coldly.
From her memories, when the old Lord Ye was at home, she lived the life of a legitimate daughter. But when out of his sight, she lived worse than a dog, and the servants in the mansion bullied her.
Actually, she could choose to leave the Ye family now, but she had a loving grandfather in the Ye family, and she didn't want Ye Hai's family to succeed, so she had to stay.
A simple sentence carried a lot of information. Smart people would understand the truth with a little thought.
Ye Hai looked at Ye Feiran, and a flash of killing intent quickly crossed his eyes.
"Danye, what are you talking about? Second Uncle doesn't understand," Ye Hai asked in confusion.
Ye Feiran's lips curved into a meaningful smile, and she leaned close to Ye Hai's ear, whispering, "Second Uncle, don't you still not understand why Ye Yuting ended up like this?"
Hearing this, Ye Hai looked at Ye Feiran in disbelief. Although he knew Ye Feiran had used her own methods to get back at Ye Yuting, the sudden emotional outburst of Ye Yuting earlier sent a chill up his spine.
Drugs?
Black magic?
Could Ye Feiran understand drugs or practice some black magic?
Or does Ye Feiran have a powerful mentor behind her?
Ye Feiran noticed the change in Ye Hai's emotions and continued, "Second Uncle, don't think I don't know that Second Aunt and Third Sister were also involved in this."
Ye Hai's pupils constricted, "Ye Feiran, what do you want?"
Ye Feiran crossed her arms, her tone turning cold, "I just want to know, will you agree or not?"
Ye Hai noticed the change in Ye Feiran's demeanor and felt a warning bell ringing in his heart. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "I agree."
He had already lost one daughter and couldn't afford to lose his capable wife and another daughter.
Ye Feiran nodded lightly and looked at the surrounding civilians with a smile, "Everyone, to be honest, I don't trust my Second Uncle's words. So, I think he must swear a blood oath in front of you all today. What do you think?"
At this point, many people had already deduced the meaning of Ye Feiran's earlier words and looked at Ye Hai with disdain.
Ye Hai was clearly a cuckoo in the magpie's nest.
"Miss Ye is right. Lord Ye, please swear a blood oath quickly!"
