Ye Changlin’s fingers were trembling with sheer excitement.
He had never expected that Grand Preceptor Chen would have such a jaw-droppingly explosive scandal.
If he could get his hands on these vulnerabilities, he would have an even greater chance of victory when he brought this matter before the Emperor.
Thus, Ye Changlin took small, shuffling steps to move a little closer to his daughter.
Zhang Ting also shifted his buttocks slightly, wanting to get closer to Ye Chuchu.
The bailiffs on both sides looked at the sky, the ground, and the crowd, but their ears were pricked up like dogs, wishing they could press up against the Third Young Mistress of the Ye family just like Lord Ye.
Ye Jinmo could not wait for Ye Chuchu to quickly spill the rest.
However, he knew that his little sister’s inner voice could not be responded to, so he could only pretend to know nothing. Emulating his old man’s manner, he also shifted a bit closer to his little sister.
Zha Zha: [Little Chuchu, didn’t I tell you before that Grand Preceptor Chen’s down there… is very small…]
Ye Chuchu: [Yes!]
Ye Chuchu’s eyes rolled around, and she was already thinking about how to yank Grand Preceptor Chen’s pants down later so everyone could take a look and have a good laugh.
Zha Zha continued: [Grand Preceptor Chen simply cannot satisfy his Madame. Every single time, it lasts only about ten-odd seconds.]
Everyone: …How long is ten-odd seconds?
Ye Changlin, Ye Jinmo, and Zhang Ting were also filled with bewilderment.
Ye Chuchu: [Ah, isn’t that just wrapping things up in three or two thrusts? Isn’t he a textbook case of an impotent brother?]
Everyone: …Oh… So ten-odd seconds means the time it takes for three or two thrusts. That truly is very short!
Ye Changlin: You rebellious daughter, are these words that a maiden from a sheltered household should be saying? What if you can’t get married in the future?
Ye Jinmo’s cheeks turned slightly red: Can’t my little sister be a bit more reserved?
Zhang Ting: This is way too explosive!
So it turns out Grand Preceptor Chen is that incapable!
He usually puts on such an capable act, but it turns out he’s just an impotent brother. Then again, what on earth is an “impotent brother”?
Grand Preceptor Chen was still furiously scolding Chen. At this moment, seeing that everyone was completely silent and staring at him with very bizarre looks, Grand Preceptor Chen felt rather strange.
Could it be that he wasn’t hitting her hard enough, or scolding her fiercely enough?
True, he wanted to save Chen, but for Chen to commit such acts was not something he could placate just by delivering a couple of slaps and shouting a few words.
If he wanted to minimize this grand matter into a small one, and dissolve the small matter into nothing, he had to adopt a posture first, put on a full display of face, and extinguish the fury in the hearts of the commoners.
With a loud slap, Grand Preceptor Chen heavily delivered another blow to Chen’s face, directly causing half of her face to swell up.
He then started blabbering and scolding her all over again.
Ye Chuchu glanced at the weeping, battered Chen, and her mood became double-fold excellent.
Ye Chuchu: [Zha Zha, let me guess. It must be that Grand Preceptor Chen was looked down upon by his Madame, and then his Madame had an affair. In a fit of rage, Grand Preceptor Chen ended her life.]
Zha Zha: [No, no, his Madame is alive and well.]
[However, Little Chuchu guessed half of it right.]
Ye Chuchu: [Quick, tell me, tell me! This young lady can’t wait to know.]
Zha Zha: [Little Chuchu, you have to be patient when listening to gossip.]
[Grand Preceptor Chen can only manage a few thrusts and is too small, so he was looked down upon by his Madame.]
[Unwilling to accept this, Grand Preceptor Chen took several concubines and mistresses. But though these concubines uttered flattering words with their mouths every time, they were also extremely unsatisfied in their hearts.]
[As time went on, Grand Preceptor Chen hated women more and more. Until one day, he saw a very beautiful young girl on the street, and an evil seed sprouted and took root in his heart.]
[That night, he ordered his men to kidnap the young girl and throw her onto his bed.]
[That night, Grand Preceptor Chen tortured that young girl to death.]
[His long-standing humility in that aspect allowed him to find an immense sense of accomplishment through that young girl.]
[But what Grand Preceptor Chen didn’t expect was that this completely insane act was caught red-handed by his Madame.]
[What no one could have anticipated was that his Madame not only didn’t blame him, but instead comforted him, and even had people bury the young girl’s corpse under a peach blossom tree in the back garden.]
[Not two days later, the Grand Preceptor’s Madame kidnapped another young girl from somewhere and threw her onto the Grand Preceptor’s bed.]
[That night, while Grand Preceptor Chen was torturing the young girl, his Madame and her lover were playing a game of hide-and-seek in the room.]
[Later on, Grand Preceptor Chen also found out that his Madame had a lover, but Grand Preceptor Chen turned a blind eye to it.]
[Because every time his Madame was with that lover, she would always deliver a young girl to him first.]
[Over these years, the number of young girls Grand Preceptor Chen has ruined is countless—some kidnapped by himself, others arranged for him by his Madame.]
[Under that peach blossom tree in the Prime Minister’s residence garden, there are at least forty corpses of young girls buried.]
Ye Chuchu’s eyes widened in shock, and she roared internally: [Holy crap! These two are worse than beasts, the kind of scum whose sons are born without rectums!]
[Zha Zha, over all these years, didn’t the families of these missing young girls report it to the authorities?]
[How is it that nothing ever traced back to Grand Preceptor Chen?]
Zha Zha: [How could they not report it?]
[The threshold of the Court of Judicial Review was nearly flattened by the parents of these missing young girls.]
[However, Grand Preceptor Chen’s influence in the Capital is like a deeply rooted tree, and his Madame is a sly fox. With these two joining hands, any official who even managed to touch upon a shred of evidence was completely eliminated.]
[It is precisely because the cases of missing young girls grew more numerous over these years that the previous Minister of the Court of Judicial Review was dismissed from his post, and the Second Prince took over the Court of Judicial Review.]
[The Emperor gave the Second Prince a strict ultimatum: he must solve this case within two months. If he fails to solve it, the Second Prince must hand back the authority of the Court of Judicial Review.]
[Right now, there is only one day left until the two-month deadline, and the Second Prince had also uncovered a bit of circumstantial evidence. So, wasn’t he poisoned by Grand Preceptor Chen’s people tonight, nearly kicking the bucket?]
Ye Chuchu glared angrily at Grand Preceptor Chen: [Zha Zha, did the Second Prince kick the bucket?]
Zhang Ting: …Surely not? The Second Prince couldn’t have been poisoned to death, right?
Zha Zha: [No, no, the Second Prince’s martial arts skills are quite good. Relying on his profound internal energy, he forced out half of the poison.]
Ye Chuchu: [It’s good that he didn’t die. He needs to hurry over here and deal with this worse-than-swine Chen family first.]
At this moment, Grand Preceptor Chen noticed that the gazes everyone used to look at him had become even stranger.
Before it was still acceptable, but now, why did everyone have an inexplicable fury in their eyes?
He had already beaten Chen so harshly; why were these people still so furious?
Ungrateful wretches!
Just as Grand Preceptor Chen raised his hand once more, intending to deliver another slap to Chen, Ye Jinmo stepped forward and gripped his wrist.
Grand Preceptor Chen asked with suppressed anger, “Young General Ye, what is the meaning of this?”
Ye Jinmo narrowed his eyes, “Grand Preceptor Chen, you are stalling for time to prevent Lord Zhang from passing judgment.”
Grand Preceptor Chen sneered, “Young General Ye, are you certain you want to make an enemy of my Chen family?”
A sharp, formidable aura emanated from Ye Jinmo’s body, “Heh, Grand Preceptor Chen, after tonight, perhaps there will be no Chen family left.”
Grand Preceptor Chen’s eyes also narrowed, and applying force, he flung Ye Jinmo’s hand away.
