Chapter 159 Liberation
The "Big Brother Liu" who was walking into the house did not doubt Yang's words, and immediately stopped and shouted in a very honest manner:
"Big sister, if you have anything to say, just tell me. Don't keep it in your heart. My mother told me that doctors are all liars. Your illness will be cured in no time!"
"Brother Liu, I understand! You can go back soon. Thank you!" Yang said loudly while holding her breath:
Under Yang's urging, Brother Liu reluctantly left Yang's house and returned to his own room next door.
Hearing his footsteps leaving, Yang heaved a sigh of relief. The next second, she saw Ye Mingsheng looking at her strangely, and then smiled bitterly and whispered:
“He is just an ordinary farmer who makes a living from the fields. He is simple and honest. He will never get married. He can’t be compared with big figures like you, Lord Ye. But he is a very good person. He has been helping me during the time I have been stranded here. If he hadn’t taken care of me, I would have died long ago…”
When Yang saw that Ye Mingsheng's expression did not change, she gritted her teeth and looked towards
"For the sake of what I said, Lord Ye, could you please not make things difficult for him?" Looking at Ye Mingsheng, Yang said earnestly, her eyes, which were no longer as bright as before, were now filled with pleading.
Seeing this, Ye Mingsheng hesitated for a moment and said, "As long as he knows what's best for him, he will be fine!"
After getting Ye Mingsheng's promise, Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then she took out a small bundle from under the quilt on the earthen bed, and found a small bronze mirror and a wooden comb from it.
Looking at the bronze mirror, Yang carefully combed her messy hair and made it smooth. After doing this, she leaned on the quilt and thought calmly about Ye Mingsheng's question;
"Master Ye, will you seek revenge on him?"
"Don't worry, it won't be long before I let him go and apologize to you!" Ye Mingsheng promised seriously:
"I believe you!"
Yang smiled and nodded, then she lay on the earthen kang and slowly closed her eyes, her expression full of relief.
Having served Xu Zhaojie for so many years, Yang was not a stupid woman. When she saw Ye Mingsheng appear, she knew that today might be the day of her death. The confidential questions asked by Ye Mingsheng further strengthened her premonition.
However, as she is seriously ill and has not much time left, she doesn't care whether she dies early or late. As long as she can make the scumbag who has ruined her life pay the price, anything is fine!
Seeing that this ill-fated woman could accept death so calmly, Ye Mingsheng felt some respect for her for the first time. He shook his head and slowly left the room. Ye Kui, who was standing behind him, picked up the pillow on the earthen kang and walked towards Yang...
Subconsciously, Ye Mingsheng did not want to kill Yang, a woman who posed no threat to him. Unfortunately, although Ye Mingsheng wanted to use the arms case to deal with Xu Zhaojie, given the current situation in the court, he did not think that Xu Zhaojie could be brought down by the arms case alone. At most, he could only seriously injure Xu Zhaojie.
Therefore, in order to prevent Xu Zhaojie, this mad dog, from retaliating afterwards, Ye Mingsheng must reduce the number of people who know about this matter as much as possible to better ensure his own safety.
There is no doubt that Yang knows too much. Besides, she is already ill. It may be a good thing for her to leave this muddy and painful time as soon as possible...

An hour later, Ye Mingsheng brought Ye Kui and Ye Dong back to their own courtyard in Luoan. "Master, Lord Li said that what you want is confidential and will take some time!" In the study, Ye Tie, who was assigned to contact Li Guangbin at Li's residence, reported the situation to Ye Mingsheng.
Ye Mingsheng nodded when he heard that. Those things were hidden in the warehouse of the Ministry of War, and it would take some effort for Li Guangbin to get them out.
Looking at Ye Ming sitting on the armchair, Sheng Yetie looked a little hesitant, as if he wanted to say something but didn't know whether to speak.
Noticing Ye Tie's expression, Ye Mingsheng was a little surprised, and then he said directly: "If you have anything to say, just say it!"
After Ye Mingsheng's words, Ye Tie no longer had any scruples and said in a deep voice: "Although Lord Li agreed to help, he has a lot of complaints and even... criticized the young master a few words..."
Ye Mingsheng narrowed his glasses, a half-smile appearing on his face.
Although Ye Tie used the word “accusation”, based on Ye Mingsheng’s understanding of Li Guangbin, he probably scolded him a few times, and the scolding should have been very unpleasant...
However, it is understandable. Li Guangbin's father Li Kai is about to retire, and Li Guangbin, as the eldest son, is not very motivated. With the help of the entire Li family's political resources, he is still only a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Personnel after so many years, and is still a long way from becoming a third-rank official to maintain the family's glory.
Therefore, when Li Kai was in a state of half-retreat, he probably thought that it was better to have less trouble than more. So even though he had grievances with the Xu family, he probably didn't want to offend Xu Zhaojie, who was in the limelight and held military power...
Therefore, Li Guangbin helped him deal with Xu Zhaojie, and it was most likely done secretly without telling his father. Otherwise, if Li Kai, the right assistant minister and one of the three giants of the Ministry of War, could take some files out of the warehouse of the Ministry of War, wouldn't he be able to do it easily?
Do I still need to wait so long?
Because he was helping me secretly without telling his father, Li Guangbin was under a lot of pressure. After all, secretly plotting against Xu Zhaojie, the current Marquis of Zhenyuan and the third-rank commander of the Xuanwu Army, was no small matter!
Once the matter was exposed and Xu Zhaojie knew that he and Li Guangbin were secretly plotting against him, given Xu Zhaojie's vengeful character, revenge like a storm would surely follow. He and Xu Zhaojie were already sworn enemies, so it didn't matter.
However, Li Guangbin, the older second-generation official, although he has the protection of his father and family, he will definitely be safe when facing Xu Zhaojie's revenge.
However, if his father knew about this, he would definitely be scolded and even punished according to the family rules. I heard that the Li family rules are quite serious and harsh, and they would often beat people with a stick.
