Chapter 1225 Ye Cheng’s resentment!

Just as An Miaoyi handed the matter over to God to decide, Ye Cheng, who had received the news, hurried to the Ye Mansion. As soon as he entered the class room of the Attendant Department, Ye Cheng asked Zhang Yufeng, the second-class attendant officer on duty:

"How is Madam Murong doing now?"

"Everything is fine! The midwife said it went smoothly and it only took about a cup of tea!"

Upon hearing this news, Ye Cheng nodded slightly, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice:

"What's going on with the Madam?"

Zhang Yufeng also whispered:
"The news of Madam Murong's childbirth should have been passed on, but there has been no movement from the First Madam's side!"

Ye Cheng didn't say anything when he heard this, but his eyes flickered a little. At this time, Zhang Yufeng continued to whisper:
“I don’t think it’s that crazy…”

Ye Cheng glanced at Zhang Yufeng and immediately said:

"Caution is the boat!"

"I understand, sir! There won't be any accidents!"

Ye Cheng nodded and asked again:

"Have you compiled the minutes of the conversation between the Madam and Minister Gu?"

Facing Ye Cheng's question, Zhang Yufeng immediately picked up a file on the table and handed it to Ye Cheng and said:

"I have sorted it out. I wanted to present it to you tomorrow!"

Ye Cheng took the file and instructed Zhang Yufeng:
"You've worked hard for most of the night, go back and rest! I'll take over for you for the remaining half of the night!"

Zhang Yufeng wanted to say that it was not hard and he could hold on, but feeling Ye Cheng's unquestionable gaze, Zhang Yufeng swallowed the words on his lips and bowed and said:

"Thank you for your consideration, sir! I will take my leave now!"

"Well! Go back and have a good sleep!"

After seeing Zhang Yufeng off, Ye Cheng felt that the light in the classroom was a little dim, so he asked someone to light two kerosene lamps. Only then did Ye Cheng sit down and open the file.

Since ancient times, it has been taboo for the women in the harem to meet foreign officials. So even with the reasonable excuse of Jingren's studies, An Miaoyi did not talk to Gu Sansi alone. While the two were talking, there were several servants and maids serving them.

It was under the narration of these people that Ye Cheng got the minutes of the conversation. Looking at the content of the conversation between An Miaoyi and Gu Sansi in the minutes, Ye Cheng’s eyes gradually became profound. To be honest, he and An Miaoyi had a very good relationship. When he was the housekeeper of the Ye Mansion, An Miaoyi took good care of him...
But unfortunately, Ye Cheng only has one master, and that master can only be the Marshal!
So when the Marshal hinted at him to monitor An Miaoyi, although Ye Cheng was very surprised and surprised, he took on this responsibility without hesitation!

Relying on his identity as the director of the Attendant Department, he not only secretly monitors An Miaoyi's every move, but also monitors the operating conditions of various industries under the name of the Ye Mansion.

Although Ye Cheng has always been very careful about his surveillance activities, as a former subordinate of An Miaoyi, he is also very aware of how powerful the eldest lady of the Ye family is!

As the eldest lady of the Ye Mansion, the mistress of the Fengwu Army, and the de facto queen of the Yijing court, An Miaoyi has prestige in the army, the support of the Cui faction in the court, the backing of Ye Cui in the Ye Mansion, and many supporters in the Ye clan!
Not only that, Huo San's Coordination Office and Ye Baode's Dadongsheng Trading Company all listened to An Miaoyi's orders, and An Miaoyi herself had her own huge industry outside, with an annual turnover of more than 100,000 taels of silver. In addition, she also supported a group of cold-blooded killers.

Although in recent times, An Miaoyi's power is far less than before due to the suppression of the Marshal, Huo San and Ye Baode are dead, the Cui faction has also ceased its activities in the Liu Zhengyue case, the huge industry has been confiscated, and the killers have all been arrested, but Ye Cheng still has awe of An Miaoyi. He knows that this is not an ordinary woman!

Therefore, in the process of monitoring An Miaoyi, Ye Cheng was also prepared to be discovered by An Miaoyi. After all, as the old saying goes, if you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself...

Ye Cheng was a little naive and thought that even if An Miaoyi knew that he was spying on her, the eldest lady of the Ye Mansion would not do anything. After all, everyone knew that he, Ye Cheng, was just following orders. If there was no order from the Marshal, even if he had a hundred courages, he would not do such a thing!
Ye Cheng even fantasized that with his good relationship with An Miaoyi, An Miaoyi would be able to understand how difficult it was for him!

But the arrival of that day completely shattered Ye Cheng's innocence and fantasy. An Miaoyi's undisguised humiliation in front of everyone completely crushed Ye Cheng's self-esteem into rubble!
Ye Cheng had never experienced such a feeling of shame in his life. He grew up in a wealthy family and was the only son in the family, so he had never encountered any hardships since he was a child, although he had not had a smooth life!
When he grew up, Ye Cheng became the steward of the Ye Mansion by virtue of his status as a distant relative of Ye Mingsheng and his meticulous and clever style. After Qi Dechao left, he became a close associate of Ye Mingsheng, the director of the Attendant's Department!

Although Ye Cheng's position was not high, the special nature of his identity allowed him to be at the center of power. He usually came into contact with high-ranking officials such as Cui Shao, He Jingyun, Yuan Song, Gu Sansi, and Li Jian!
Because the people he met on a daily basis were of very high level, Ye Cheng's horizons gradually became higher. In addition, these people were very polite to Ye Cheng, often calling him Director Ye, and occasionally bringing him some small specialties.
Therefore, although Ye Cheng behaved very humbly and respectfully in front of Ye Mingsheng from beginning to end, and did not dare to overstep the line in the slightest, but deep in his heart, Ye Cheng also believed that he was an important figure...
An Miaoyi's undisguised humiliation severely hurt Ye Cheng's self-esteem. Ye Cheng would never forget what happened that day. He would often dream about that day, then wake up from a nightmare and finally stay awake all night.
The feeling of shame was deeply imprinted in his mind. Although Ye Cheng understood rationally that An Miaoyi was the Marshal's wife and his mistress, and he absolutely could not be disrespectful to An Miaoyi in the slightest, he still had an impulse for revenge in his heart!

This urge for revenge did not fade with the passage of time, but instead became stronger with the passage of time!

Driven by this revengeful mentality, Ye Cheng still insisted on completing the task assigned to him by Ye Mingsheng, monitoring An Miaoyi's every move, looking for an opportunity to take revenge on An Miaoyi!
And because of Ye Mingsheng's previous warning, An Miaoyi has become much more honest now. She no longer dares to hire any killers. She just secretly uses the industries under the name of the Ye family to save some private money for herself and build some industries!
Ye Cheng was in control of all these situations, and he had detailed evidence in this regard, but he had never reported these things to Ye Mingsheng!
As for why he didn't tell Ye Mingsheng, the answer is very simple, that is, Ye Cheng knew that this would not bring down An Miaoyi! As someone close to Ye Mingsheng, Ye Cheng knew very well that although Ye Mingsheng didn't love An Miaoyi, the two had been married for so many years, and An Miaoyi had given Ye Mingsheng a son, so there was still some affection between the two.

Because of this, Ye Mingsheng is usually very tolerant of An Miaoyi. As long as An Miaoyi doesn’t go too far, Ye Mingsheng will turn a blind eye and pretend not to know······················

You know, in Ye Mingsheng's study, there is a sign saying "It's rare to be confused". Even because of the existence of the inner guards, Ye Cheng doubted whether Ye Mingsheng had known for a long time that An Miaoyi was using the Ye Mansion's assets to save some private money for herself!

Ye Cheng knew that if he wanted to completely bring down An Miaoyi, he had to make An Miaoyi commit an unforgivable mistake, so that Ye Mingsheng would make up his mind!

Ye Cheng also saw Murong Qingwu's pregnancy as an opportunity. He really hoped that An Miaoyi could do something about this matter!
But now it seems that An Miaoyi is not stupid. She knows where Ye Mingsheng's red line is. She also knows how many eyes are silently staring at her in the dark of Ye Mansion, so she will never do such a crazy thing that would be condemned by both humans and gods!

Compared to what An Miaoyi did for Murong Qingwu, Ye Cheng is now more looking forward to what An Miaoyi can do for Gu Sansi.

Ye Cheng could feel An Miaoyi's growing dissatisfaction with Gu Sansi. This dissatisfaction originated from Gu Sansi's unwillingness to take sides, and reached its peak as Gu Sansi taught Jingren about the harm of the harem interfering in government affairs and the chaos caused by external relatives. An Miaoyi believed that Gu Sansi's move was directed at her!
And the way Gu Sansi made a fuss about her son is also absolutely unacceptable to An Miaoyi. Therefore, Ye Cheng is very sure that the conflict between An Miaoyi and Gu Sansi will further intensify. He even says that An Miaoyi will join forces with Cui Shao to teach Gu Sansi a lesson...

This would be a good opportunity. After all, the Marshal still trusts Gu Sansi very much, and he has also warned An Miaoyi against interfering in politics!
Thinking of this, Ye Cheng's heart became hot. When the opportunity arises, he will make An Miaoyi regret the humiliation she had given him!
Just as Ye Cheng was thinking silently, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside, and then a guard walked into the classroom and reported to Ye Cheng:

"Director Ye, Madam Murong has successfully given birth to a son!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Cheng nodded and asked:
"Have you sent a message to the old lady?"

"It has already been sent to Aunt Wu!"

"very good!"

After saying that, Ye Cheng also looked towards the west. He knew that even though An Miaoyi did nothing, the eldest lady of the Ye Mansion would definitely not be able to sleep tonight. He wondered what kind of expression the eldest lady of the Ye Mansion would have after learning that her old enemy had given birth to a son as she wished!

I think this expression must be very interesting···························

Just as Ye Cheng thought, An Miaoyi couldn't sleep after learning the news of Murong Qingwu's childbirth. She had been waiting for the final news. When the news came that Murong Qingwu and her child were safe and that she had given birth to a son, An Miaoyi closed her eyes. Seeing this, Qiqige, who was accompanying her, looked at her wife with some worry.

After being silent for more than ten seconds, An Miaoyi opened her eyes and said:

"Give bonuses to the midwives and doctors at the medical school. In addition, according to custom, the wages of all the servants in the mansion will be increased by half this month!"

"As for Murong Qingwu, you can go check on her on my behalf when daybreak comes, and express your concern at the same time!"

Qiqige hesitated for a moment and said:
"Madam, should we be more cautious?"

Although Qiqige's words were very tactful, An Miaoyi still understood what she meant and immediately shook her head and said:
"Since everyone knows that we two don't get along, why should I pretend? Just let me be willful for once!"

Hearing what An Miaoyi said, Qi Qige nodded and said:
"Ma'am, I understand. I'll go there as soon as it's daybreak!"

An Miaoyi continued to say:

"Also, spread the news that Murong Yuliang has been dismissed!"

Qiqige was a little surprised when she heard this, and looked at An Miaoyi with some confusion. Seeing this, An Miaoyi said calmly:
"I regret it! This news should have been released long ago. It was really a big mistake caused by a single thought..."

After saying that, An Miaoyi sighed to herself. About five days ago, An Miaoyi received the news that Murong Yuliang was dismissed, and at that time, Murong Qingwu's due date was almost approaching.

An Miaoyi believed that Murong Yuliang and Murong Qingwu had always had a deep father-daughter relationship, so at this critical moment for Murong Qingwu, once she knew that her father had been dismissed by Ye Mingsheng, Murong Qingwu would definitely be greatly affected, and it was even possible that some unfortunate things would happen!
Just when An Miaoyi was about to do so, Ye Cui found An Miaoyi. Ye Cui also knew the news that Murong Yuliang had been dismissed. As an old woman, she knew very well how dangerous and fragile it was for a woman to give birth!

Therefore, Ye Cui asked An Miaoyi to block the news of Murong Yuliang's dismissal, and never let Murong Qingwu know the news. She should wait until Murong Qingwu finished her confinement and then slowly tell her the news!

Although An Miaoyi was unwilling at the time, facing the request of her mother-in-law, she had no choice but to do as she was told and blocked the news in the Ye Mansion. Now, when she learned that Murong Qingwu had given birth to a son, An Miaoyi was a little annoyed that she was so obedient!
Otherwise, when Murong Qingwu learned that her father was dismissed, she gave birth to a child in grief and worry. No one knows what would have happened...
