g, as if she had been transported back many years ago, to her father's military camp, where she sparred with the generals.For some inexplicable reason, a surge of emotion suddenly filled her heart, as...However, Ye Er didn't intend to explain too much to Dr. Chen. Some things were in the past and there was no point in bringing them up.

And there was another extremely important reason that made him determined to cooperate with Dr. Chen.

He also heard from the steward yesterday that in Beijing, the most well-respected official media belonged to the elder sister of Mrs. Chen, the imperial physician.

The steward wanted to invite the official media yesterday, but she's too busy lately because she has taken on a lot of media engagements. 'Actually, everyone knows that it's not really about being busy, it's mainly about whether the official media is willing to offend others for the sake of our Ye family.'

The matchmakers from official families were all highly placed. After the butler at Ye Mansion explained their purpose, the matchmakers clearly didn't want to offend other families by refusing a proposal for Ye Mansion.

He chose to help Dr. Chen because he wanted a favor in return. All it would take is for his wife to say a word to the official media and this matter would be easily resolved.

Now that things have come to this, Ye Er wouldn't be polite with him anymore and said directly, "There's actually something I need you to help me with, Chen Lao."

Dr. Chen's interest piqued instantly, "What is it Ye sir, just speak plainly."

Mr. Chen should have heard that I have resumed my engagement with the County Lady of Anle Marquis's Mansion. In the next two days, our Ye Family needs a somewhat reputable matchmaker to go to Anle Marquis's Mansion for the betrothal.

There was no need for Ye Er to elaborate. Chen, the imperial physician, immediately said, "Understood, understood. My wife happens to know a relatively reliable official matchmaker. We must arrange this properly for Lord Ye."

Matters resolved, Ye Er gave Chen Lao a slight nod. “Then thank you, Elder Chen.”

"Master Ye, you're far too kind. I should be the one thanking you."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Dr. Chen noticed that Ye Er's complexion was not good. Afraid of disturbing him, he politely took his leave.

Ye Er had him escorted to his own carriage before driving back to Ye Mansion.

On the way back to Ye Mansion, Ye Er had already learned about the day's events in the capital from Da Liang. The most talked-about topic among everyone was his and Xiao Qin's marriage being bestowed upon them by the emperor.

Most of the comments were unfavorable to Xiaoqin. After listening, Ye Er remained silent for a long time.

Daliang saw that his master's expression was not good. After thinking for a moment, he still said, "Master, do you need me to teach those who spoke ill of the County Lord a lesson"

The news he had gathered that day was mostly unfavorable to the noble lady, and those who spoke these words were mostly wives of officials and so-called "thousand gold" misses.

After learning about the betrothal between Ye and Xiaoqin, they have been spreading rumors, claiming that the Anle Hou Mansion is ambitious and Xiaoqin is unkind. They say that Xiaoqin used to dislike Ye and even scorn him, but now that he has an official position and the Emperor's favor, she suddenly wants to be close to him.

Some women directly scolded Xiaoqin for being shameless, and scolded the wife of Duke Anle for being shameless, saying that when they chose their husbands, they didn't find anyone better than Lord Ye, so they shouldn't shamelessly cling to him.

In short, they would say anything outrageous, because they knew the current Duke Anle's household was well-known but powerless, and there was nothing they could do to them.

When he heard these words, he wished he could go and shut those gossips' mouths himself, so they wouldn't dare to spread rumors anymore.

He remained calm, though. He wouldn't act without his master's orders.

After hearing these words, Ye Er's face darkened, and he remained silent for a moment. The two young men, Daliang and Xiao Liang, who were also in the carriage, looked at each other, none of them knowing what their superiors were thinking.

One can only imagine how fiercely Master would retaliate if even the slightest injustice were done to Miss Xiaoqin.

Under the expectant gazes of the two, Ye Er finally made a move. He narrowed his eyes slightly, “Since they like to spread gossip, then let’s make them the subjects of gossip. Let's keep a record of those who maliciously slander the county princess and create some trouble for them.”

Daliang and Xiaoliang raised their eyebrows. Daliang had a feeling that the "trouble" adults casually mentioned wasn't just ordinary trouble.

Sure enough, Da Liang and Xiao Liang were still arguing about what kind of "trouble" their elders had mentioned when they heard their own elder say, "There's no need to spend too much energy dealing with such people. Just throw some male beggars into their rooms."

"...."

Daliang and Xiao Liang were dumbfounded. Sure enough, when Master Ye was truly ruthless, even the most formidable people feared him.

These wealthy women in the capital care most about their reputation.

The adults told me to throw some beggars into their rooms. Once word got out, those people's reputations were ruined instantly.

In Beijing, you would become the talk of the town.

Those who were married fared better, but those who remained unmarried would suffer.

Such things happen, and it becomes extremely difficult for them to get married in the future. Big families generally wouldn't agree to take in such a woman.

I have to admit, their adults' move was indeed ruthless, but this is just tit for tat.

Knowing how crucial reputation is to a woman, they still gossiped and maliciously slandered Princess Xiaoqin. Therefore, everything that awaits them next can only be...deserved retribution.

The big beam and the small beam immediately agreed, "Don't worry, sir, this matter can be settled tonight."

Other things are hard to find, beggars...are easy to find.

Ye Er nodded slightly, he raised his hand to rub his temples, "Is the county princess still at the Beijang Wangfu"

"Oh, oh, please forgive me, sir. I almost forgot." Xiaoliang patted his forehead in annoyance. "Sir, after the emperor's decree was announced, Madam Anlehou sent someone to Beijiang Wangfu to bring back the county princess to Houfu."

"Yes, the county princess eventually returned to the Marquis's mansion. After returning, she never left home again."

Ye Er pursed her lips. She had thought that Xiao Qin wouldn't want to return to the Hou Mansion, at least she shouldn't be willing to go back now and face her own parents, but in the end, she did go back.

Xiaoliang saw them frown and worry, thinking they wanted to see Xiaoyun. He said, "Sir, now that you have a formal engagement with the county princess, if you want to see her, just go ahead. Anyway, you are already engaged."

"......Daliang helplessly looked at his silly younger brother. How could they, as children, possibly understand the thoughts of adults"

He rolled his eyes, glared at Xiao Liang, and hissed, "Just shut your mouth if you don't know anything."

Xiaoliang was unwilling to accept this. He just wanted to retort and tell him where he went wrong, but the next moment, his ears twitched slightly, and he met Dailing's gaze. Both of them tensed up instantly.

Daliang drew the sword from his waist and instructed Xiaoliang, "You protect the adults."

"Don't worry." Xiaoliang also drew his sword.

As soon as Daliang stepped off the train, a figure rushed towards him. Before he could even see who it was, he had to raise his sword to block an incoming attack.e entered the courtyard, An Xue Tang had somehow produced a dagger in her hand. Without saying a word, she charged towards the man with the dagger drawn.Although the Eleven Martial Arts were powerful,...
