Chapter 816: Setting Up A Trap

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Luckily, the servants that the Old Master gave were so powerful that they all stopped the Yu family’s servants. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to invite Doctor Gao over.”

After saying that, Ling ‘er frowned. “Old Master, Young Master, Cousin-in-law, it’s all my fault for being too stupid. I really waited outside the door for so long. Is Eldest Young Madam alright?”

“It’s okay. Ling ‘er, you did a good job,” Ye Muyu encouraged her with a smile.

Old Master Du’s originally gloomy face immediately changed into a gentle smile when he saw Ling ‘er’s encouraging eyes. He nodded and said, “Not bad. Ling’er did well this time.”

“Ling’er, go down and rest for a while.” With that, Old Master Du sent someone to send her down.

Ling’er glanced at Ye Muyu, who nodded at her. Ling’er then obediently followed the servant girl to rest. She was really exhausted from this trip.

In fact, she had been hit several times by the Yu family, but she did not say anything, afraid that her Ye Muyu would be worried.

After Ling’er left, the atmosphere between the four of them became a little dull.

Old Master Du was the first to lose control. “The Yu family is going too far!” he shouted angrily.

“Father, you said that everyone in this county would give you face. Aren’t you eating your own words now?” Du Heng snorted.

Old Master Du’s face turned red. He glared at his son who was trying to sabotage him. “This has never happened before.”

“That’s why you can’t judge people well. No matter what the Yu family wants to do, they are playing dirty tricks at this critical moment. If something really happens to sister-in-law, I want to see how you will explain it to Eldest Brother.”

Old Master Du almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Uncle Du, how do you think we should deal with the Yu family?” Chu Heng asked with a smile.

Originally, he did not intend to touch these local squires. As long as they could coexist harmoniously, he was too lazy to do anything.

However, it was obvious that he was too gentle. The other party did not take him seriously at all. He even made Ah Yu cry. Then, he would clean up.

“Brother Heng, since the Yu family is in the way, then smack their claws away.” Du Heng had a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.

Old Master Du did not hesitate anymore. He smiled and said, “Ah Heng, you young people are still energetic. However, this old man should also contribute to this matter. Actually, you might not know this, but what the Yu family cares about the most is not the rouge shop, but the merchant ship.”

Chu Heng did not have any doubts when he heard this. He had understood what he could not figure out in his previous life.

In his previous life, nothing happened to the Wang family, but the Shen family’s army.

Other than those three outlaws who ran to the Shen family’s army to join the army, in the end, in a battle after the new year, they poisoned the army’s food, causing foreign bandits to enter Great Chu’s territory, causing great casualties among the people.

When this matter entered the court, Emperor Mingzong was naturally furious. General Shen’s military power was taken away and on the day before he returned to Jing City, he lost his life. In Chu Heng’s previous life, when he wanted to investigate the cause of death, he was reborn.

At this time in his previous life, even though he joined the army, he was only in the grain supply team and could not come into contact with the Shen family’s army. When something happened to the Shen family’s army, he chose to join another army for his future.

From the beginning to the end, he did not have much involvement with the Shen family’s army.

Except for Ye Hao…

Thinking of Ye Hao’s previous life, he was also in the Shen family’s army. After the Shen family’s army met with an accident, he was fine and was even chosen by the princess, whom he ended up marrying.

After that, Ye Hao slowly took power. Three years later, he was promoted to an official position in the army and went to the capital. Only then did he meet Ye Hao.

After that, Ye Hao reunited with the Ye family.

However, in his previous life, the princess was there, so Ye Hao had a very bad relationship with Old Woman Ye’s family and quarreled with Madam Ye whenever they met.

However, Madam Ye was stupid. She had even been set up by the princess in private and lost a lot of money on loans. If Chu Heng had not discovered it in time, the entire family would have been implicated.
