Chapter 324: Confrontation (1)
Feeling the change in the atmosphere after Wu Shanxian finished speaking, Ye Tianchi smiled and filled his wine cup with wine. He raised his wine cup and said, "General Wu, I’m just asking. Since you don’t like it, I will punish myself with this cup of wine."
After saying that, Ye Tianchi immediately drank the wine. When the ministers and generals who supported him saw this, they all applauded and praised him.
Ye Tianchi put down his wine cup, stood up, and smiled, "Everyone, let’s see what work General Wu still needs to do today when we all have a day off."
Without waiting for Wu Shanxian, Ye Tianchi led the ministers and generals out. As soon as he left the pavilion, he saw a maidservant stopped by the imperial guards. Ye Tianchi recognized this maidservant as his granddaughter’s first-ranked maidservant and quickly shouted to the imperial guards.
"Stop!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the maidservant looked up and saw him. Seeing Ye Tianchi, the maidservant’s eyes were red, and tears fell from her eyes like rain.
She choked with sobs and shouted desperately, "Lao Ye, please save the eldest young lady! She was bullied and is now unconscious in the flower garden!"
When Ye Tianchi heard this, his face darkened, and he walked quickly towards the maidservant. The imperial guards saw that the maidservant really knew Ye Tianchi, so they let go of her and stepped aside. When she was free, the maidservant rushed to Ye Tianchi and knelt before him with a thud.
Before she could speak, Ye Tianchi asked anxiously, "Hurry up and tell me. What happened to Yu’er?"
