Chapter 220 The General Has No Son 4
Bang.
Rong Qing tried to make Ji Yanli understand the anger in her heart.
Ji Yanli cried out, "Hui Niang, I am not mistaken, this table..."
"Cough cough."
Yan Kui could no longer sit still. He stood up and finally spoke the first words since Ji Yanli entered the room: "My dear son-in-law is here. Have you had dinner? I'll ask the kitchen to make some new food and bring it over."
Ji Yanli curled his lips and found another place to sit.
"No need, this general has an important matter to attend to."
He called himself the General, so naturally he had no intention of acting according to the relative's feelings. He directly slammed the list with the details of the lost items on the table, and the sound was louder than Rong Qing's previous slam.
"This general risked his life for military merit, but I didn't expect that thieves would target my home. When I returned, the storehouse in my mansion had been completely robbed. This is simply a great shame and humiliation! My Lord, please take a good look at it. If there is nothing to say, this general will directly take this list to the palace and ask the emperor to make the decision!"
Yan Kui took the list and took a look at it, and broke out in a cold sweat.
Many of the things on this list are in his mansion. Some of them were brought back from the general's mansion when he saw them, and some were given as gifts by Yan Shuyu on a daily basis.
He finally realized that his son-in-law came prepared today to cause trouble for him!
Yan Kui's face also turned cold. He acted like a father-in-law, trying to suppress Ji Yanli's arrogance.
He threw the list back on the table. "General Ji, are you here to show off your power in my house? I'm your elder! Even if I didn't ask, you should still take the initiative to pay me tribute during festivals and daily life. Why are you saying this now? Do you think my house needs your little money?"
Ji Yanli looked around coldly, "Master Tutor, forgive me for being blunt, but most of the things in your room belong to my General's Mansion. Even if it's just daily tributes, there's no reason to empty my General's Mansion to fill your Tutor's Mansion. Don't use your seniority to pressure me. I've killed many enemies at the border who were much older. Apart from their old skin and brittle bones, which made them particularly easy to chop, I don't see any other difference."
"you--"
Yan Kui stared.
Rong Qing slammed the table again, "How outrageous!"
"You're truly uneducated. You value wealth over everything else. I'm telling you! My family has always been affluent. If it weren't for my daughter's filial piety, we wouldn't even want these things!"
That's really interesting.
Ji Yanli sneered: "Who knows if your family is colluding to cheat people and stuffing a stinky rat into my house? Since you don't want to settle privately, then I will see you in front of the emperor!"
After he finished speaking, he stood up and left. Hui Niang put away the list and followed closely behind him.
Yan Kui anxiously tried to hold him back, but was stopped by Rong Qing.
"Let him go! The Emperor values filial piety above all else. I want to see what good he can gain by going to the throne room to file a complaint against his father-in-law!"
"I think he won the battle, but he can't see his own weight!"
Yan Kui just felt relieved when a servant came running in.
"Master, Madam, something bad has happened. Someone is dead outside the door!"
"what?!"
The Yan family could not have this meal, so they hurried out to see that Nanny Wang had been beaten to death, and her son was not far from death either.
Both of them were covered in blood, and there were large patches of blood on the floor at the entrance of the mansion.
Rong Qing couldn't help but scream. Behind her, the third daughter of the Yan family had already covered her face and ran away.
"What are you doing?! Nanny Wang, Wang..."
Rong Qing's voice broke.
It was common for masters to punish their servants, and sometimes slaves who committed serious mistakes were beaten to death, but that was just a casual order, and no one had ever faced such a bloody scene.
Not to mention that the deceased Nanny Wang was Yan Shuyu's wet nurse.
It was not until Nanny Wang's son died that the people in the general's mansion stopped beating people.
"This servant stole gold and silver from the General's Mansion and even took his master's belongings out to pawn. The evidence is irrefutable. He is from your Attendant's Mansion. Our General has ordered that we kill him at the gate of your mansion. This will be considered a good deed, so that the others in your mansion will see and remember this lesson."
Yan Kui and Rong Qing looked at each other, and they suddenly realized that Ji Yanli was serious about it.
The eunuch from the palace came soon and said that the emperor summoned the tutor.
Yan Kui's calves trembled. Rong Qing hurriedly took out a bag of silver and wanted to ask about the situation, but the eunuch smiled and refused to accept it.
"How to do how to do."
After Yan Kui left, Rong Qing was so anxious that he simply asked someone to harness a carriage to go to the general's mansion to find Yan Shuyu.
Yan Shuyu didn't expect that Ji Yanli would really dare to do such a ruthless thing.
She looked at Rong Qing in a daze, not knowing what to say.
In the past, she felt that she had a hold on men, so she naturally did not hide her emotions in front of Ji Yanli, and would lose her temper if she was unhappy. But now...
"Yu'er, you can't just ignore the family. Those things were given to your younger siblings only after you gave your approval. You can't just let one of you give and the other not. Are you going to let the emperor punish your father for such a small matter?"
"But, but I never knew they took so many things."
Every time her brother-in-law and sister-in-law came, they would always say that they liked this and that, but she didn't care and didn't know that after one thing today and one thing tomorrow, they had accumulated to so many things over time.
She was not happy either.
The things in the general's mansion are also related to her. This is not only taking advantage of Ji Yanli, but also taking advantage of her.
"Mom, go back and pack your things and send them back. I'll talk to the general and he'll calm down."
How could Rong Qing be willing to do that?
"Why should you take back what you've given away? Isn't that what your mother taught you since you were little?"
Before the mother and daughter could figure out what was going on, Yan Kui returned home.
He ordered his servants to sort out all the things in the general's mansion like frost-bitten eggplants.
"Where's Madame?"
The servant replied, "The Madam went to the General's Mansion and said she was looking for the eldest daughter."
Yan Kui waved his hand and said, "Go and call her back."
What are you looking for? He has been dismissed from office. The emperor said that he has not been upright and asked him to reflect on himself.
He is old and there are many people under him who can replace him. Once he leaves the court, his hope of returning is slim.
"Let the eldest young master, the second young master, the third young lady, and the fifth young lady kneel in the ancestral hall! They are all shallow-minded people!"
Ji Yanli also returned home. He was a master of military strategy and was not greedy for military power. He was favored by the emperor. Yan Kui was only a fifth-rank official, so the emperor removed him without much thought.
Ji Yanli also knew when to stop and thanked him directly and promptly.
As for suing his father-in-law and ruining his reputation, Ji Yanli didn't care.
In this world, you can't let yourself be depressed for the sake of face. Instead of making yourself suffer, it is better to make others angry to death.
After Ji Yanli came back, Yan Shuyu had the door of her yard closed and instructed her servants not to let in even if the general came.
As a result, Ji Yanli never came to see her.
Nanny Wang moved some of the things in the warehouse, the Yan family took some, Ji Yanli took some, and the remaining part was with the fifth prince Ling Feng.
Ji Yanli has no intention of letting him go.
