Chapter 55: Not going in

There is no one in this world who doesn’t have a temper at all. No matter how good the temper is, there will be times when you get angry.

What's more, Ye Sheng has never had a good temper.

How could he not be angry when he was imprisoned in disguise in the capital for more than 40 years?

It was just that due to the times, he could not resist. After all, he returned to the capital from the north, and was no longer the poor boy who came out of Ningling. He had a son, family, and a large group of old subordinates.

You should know that the old subordinates of Marshal Ye forty years ago were not the seventeen people now. At that time, if people like civil servants included auxiliary warfare, there would be 170,000 people.

At that time, Ye Sheng could not slap the table with the Ji family when he was angry, because it would cause countless people to die.

But now it's different.

Forty years have passed, and the former Northern Expedition Army has long been dead. Even Ye Sheng himself has not lived long ago. At this time, this old man was already completely fearless.

What is the Ji family and what is the emperor?

It's not as good as the bowl of wine in front of him.

When he was young, he was a violent and arrogant person. In recent decades, he had to pretend to be a little old man who raised flowers and plants, but now he ignored everything in front of these old brothers.

As the old man himself said.

Go to your mother.

He spoke in shock, while Li Xin on the side was dumbfounded. He took a deep breath and showed a very reluctant smile on his face: "Master Ye... you are drunk too much."

"I haven't drunk too much."

Old Man Ye was a little impatient. He put down the wine bowl in his hand and glared at Li Xin.

"If I drink too much, I won't scold him here now, I will go out and beat him up!"

Speaking of this, Ye Sheng, whose face was red, cursed and said, "I won't beat him today. When I go underground, I will definitely beat the two people in his family!"

It is obvious that the two people mentioned by the old man were Ji Mu, the Emperor Wu of the Ji family, and the other was Ji Man, the former emperor Chengde.

Li Xin was frightened by these words. He quickly pulled Ye Sheng's sleeve and whispered: "Master Ye, don't say it!"

"You have nothing to fear, but the Ye family still has descendants!"

Old Man Ye then stopped talking, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'm happy today, so I won't bother with him anymore. If you go out and tell him, you say that I'm drunk too much and can't see anyone."

Li Xin nodded helplessly, stood up from Ye Sheng, bent his body and whispered: "Master Ye, please be careful and don't drink too much."

The old man grinned.

"If you can drink it here today, it will be the happiest thing Ye Sheng has for decades."

Seeing his teacher's appearance as if he was not afraid of death, Li Xin had no choice but to walk to Wang Zhong next to Ye Sheng, bent down, and whispered: "Master, you look at some Master Ye and persuade him, he... can't stand this trouble."

Wang Zhong is the master of internal martial arts, and he is a little clearer about what Ye Sheng is in now. He raised his head and drank a bowl of wine, lowered his voice and said, "I... try my best."

Li Xin sighed, got up and looked at the eighteen old men, shook his head and walked out.

He knew very well that it was Ye Sheng's happiest thing to be able to gather with these old brothers today, but if he could do it again, Li Xin would not let these people come to see Ye Sheng again.

Old man, I can't hold on for too long...

Thinking of this, Li Xin walked back to Ye Sheng again and lowered his head and said, "Master Ye, the disciple is out."

Ye Sheng was sitting on the flat ground drinking, but when he heard this, he put down the wine bowl in his hand and turned around and looked deeply at the disciple who had known him for nearly ten years.

The old man smiled.

"Don't look like a mother-in-law. I've lived a good life. Even if I die now, it won't be a waste of time."

"You go."

Li Xin took a deep breath and said nothing.

When he turned around and walked for more than ten steps, he could still hear the loud voice of Old Man Ye behind him.

"Old brothers, you have made Ye Sheng successful in this life. If you have the next life, Ye Sheng and you will hold your horse and kick it!"

When Li Xin looked back, he found that Old Man Ye had stood up at some point and was toasting seventeen old men.

Seeing this situation, Marquis Jing'an knew that he could not persuade the old man anymore, so he could only sigh helplessly and walked towards the door of the yard.

When he walked to the gate of the courtyard and was about to open the gate, he remembered that there was an emperor waiting outside.

Marquis Jing'an was cruel and ruthless, lifted his fist, and rushed hard according to his left eye.

Li Xin has been practicing boxing for ten years and his hands are very strong. After he goes down, his left eye suddenly becomes blue and purple, and he feels drowsy.

He sat on the ground and took a while to recover. He rubbed his eyes with his hands, took a deep breath, pushed open the yard door and walked out.

Outside the courtyard, Emperor Taikang was waiting at the door, and Ye Lin, the fourth master of the Ye family, stood respectfully behind him.

Li Xin covered his eyes with one hand, walked over, and smiled bitterly at the emperor.

"Your Majesty, you may not be able to get in today. The old man has drunk too much and does not give anyone a chance to speak. Just as I got closer and was about to speak, Master Ye said that I disturbed him to drink, and I just came up and said it."

In fact, there was no need for Li Xin to do this. After all, Ye Sheng's prestige is here. He just said it openly and did not see the emperor. The emperor could not get angry for a while. He could only pretend to be generous and turned back to the palace. However, offending the emperor was not a joke. Since Li Xin became Old Man Ye's apprentice, he would naturally have to block Ye Sheng at this time.

After saying that, Li Xin let go of his hand and exposed his purple left eye.

"Your Majesty, look."

He said with a bitter face: "You might as well visit Master Ye again the next day. There is really no way out today. Master Ye has an old problem. He likes to hit people when he drinks too much. Everyone in the Ye family knows this."

This is true, but the people who are beaten on weekdays are usually the children and grandchildren of Old Man Ye.

When the emperor saw Li Xin's embarrassing appearance, he immediately laughed. He stepped forward to check Li Xin's injuries and tried to tighten his expression: "Why is the old Duke so unreasonable that he actually made my Minister of War like this."

Speaking of this, the emperor coughed and said, "It's a pity that he is your master in Chang'an. Master beats his apprentice is a family matter. I don't want to interfere, otherwise I will have to make decisions for you."

Ye Lin, behind the emperor, also stepped forward to look at Li Xin's injuries and kept accusing Li Xin.

"Father, he was like this after drinking. I'm really sorry..."

Li Xin covered his eyes and smiled bitterly: "It's not a problem. The old man is old and he doesn't do much. He will be fine if he goes back for a few days."

The emperor patted Li Xin on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You are not seriously injured in Chang'an, so don't be busy here. Go home and have a good rest first. When you recover the injury, I have something to do."

At this moment, Marquis Jing'an became a one-eyed dragon, covered his eyes and said, "Does Your Majesty still want to go in?"

"I won't go in, I won't go in."

Emperor Taikang held back his laughter and spoke seriously.
