Chapter 277 The clan leader is partial to Yang Erye, Yang Ziyao proposes to replace the clan leader
Master Yang tried to calm himself down: "You are mistaken, I just felt very cold so I shivered."
The old lady looked at him as if he were a retard, her face full of "Do you think I will believe it?"
At this time, everyone had finished reading the letter. They all looked at Master Yang, especially the clan leader, who asked directly, "Master Yang! Since you are the brother of the late old prince, we respectfully call you Master Yang, but how could you do such a shameful thing?"
Master Yang was still holding on: "What did I do to make you look at me like an enemy?"
The clan leader pointed at Master Yang and angrily said, "You still don't admit what you did. Fine, let me help you remember it."
"The old prince's third son was taken away by someone you arranged just a few days after he was born, and he was taken to Xianhe Town, far away from the capital."
"It would have been fine if you had taken him away, but you also let the family that adopted him abuse him to death. Not only that, you also asked them to bring their son with them and wait until the time was right to come to the palace in Beijing to impersonate the king, so that you could control all the property of the palace step by step. Is that right?"
Master Yang said unconvincedly, "No! I have never done such a thing, how can I admit it? Handwriting can be forged. How can I admit to something I have never done?"
The old lady saw that Master Yang was still trying to argue at this moment: "Master Yang, are you saying that I am framing you? Do you think I have any reason to deliberately frame you?"
"You are clearly making false accusations. You just don't like me, so you want to take this opportunity to get rid of me? If you don't like me, I can take my family and leave. We can start our own business."
Xia Yanxin quietly took a step back, dissolved the truth pill in water, then lowered her head and held a glass of water in front of Master Yang: "Please have some tea."
Master Yang wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by Xia Yanxin. Although he was unhappy, he still picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said, "I did all this, but so what? You have no substantial evidence."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Master Yang quickly covered his mouth. He looked around in horror, shaking his head and waving his hands vigorously.
Xia Yanxin whispered in the old lady's ear: "Grandma, don't worry and ask. Just ask. Every word he says now is true."
The old lady looked at Xia Yanxin in surprise. She really wanted to ask Xia Yanxin how she did it, but now was obviously not the time to ask. The old lady suppressed her curiosity and shifted her attention to the matter at hand.
"Mr. Yang, you have already confessed everything yourself, what else do you have to say?" The old lady's aura was fully released at this time.
Master Yang wanted to say that this was a misunderstanding, but what came out of his mouth was indeed completely different: "So what if I did it? We all have the same father. Just because I am a concubine, I cannot be a prince. I can only get a part of the huge family fortune."
"Even though you are a bastard, your father-in-law has never treated you harshly. How can you be so ungrateful?"
"So what if you are ungrateful? As long as I send you all to hell, the entire palace will be mine, and my children will become legitimate in the future."
Master Yang was extremely panicked. He couldn't understand why he had said what was in his heart. What should he do next?
Old Fu En wanted to continue asking questions, but the clan leader stood aside and said, "Since you, Mr. Yang, have admitted what you did, then all your property will be confiscated and your family will be removed from the family tree."
The old lady was dissatisfied with the clan leader's decision: "Clan leader, this matter involves many people. How can you just make a decision so easily? I don't accept your decision."
Master Yang thought that he was finished today, but he didn't expect that the clan leader would actually help them. Master Yang looked at the old lady proudly.
The clan leader did want to protect Mr. Yang's family, but he really didn't expect that the old lady would not accept his judgment. She looked down and said, "What do you know as a woman? He is also the old prince's son."
"I want to seek justice for my poor San'er!"
The clan leader scolded again: "Isn't this clan leader seeking justice for your third son?"
Yang Ziyao walked into the ancestral hall with the help of Little Lace: "What? Do you want to take advantage of my illness to ignore my mother?"
"I am not here to listen to your chatter. I have already reported it to the authorities and they will be here soon."
The clan leader looked at Yang Ziyao unhappily and said, "How can you report this to the authorities? We can just handle this kind of thing privately. There is no need to report it to the authorities."
"Do you want to make the entire palace a laughing stock among all the major families in the capital?"
Yang Ziyao said calmly: "This is not a joke, this is to make the truth public. My brother must not suffer so much injustice for no reason."
"My third brother was forced to be separated from his parents and brother since he was born. He was tortured by his adoptive parents and their family when he was growing up. We don't know whether he is alive or dead yet. Can we just let it go like this?"
"I swear here that I will never let these evil people go, never!"
After Yang Ziyao finished speaking, he said to the old lady, "Mother, my son has reported to the authorities. I believe the governor of Jingzhao will be here soon."
The old lady agreed with Yang Ziyao's approach: "Son, I am very happy with what you did today. We cannot let these evil people go."
The two of them talked as if no one was around, and simply left the patriarch aside.
The despised clan leader was furious: "My Lord, what are you going to do? Even my words are useless, right?"
Hearing this, Yang Ziyao turned to look at the clan leader and said, "Whether it will work or not depends on what you said. Just based on what you said just now, I don't need to listen to you, and I will even doubt your ability to handle things."
"I think the clan leader is a bit old and it's time for him to step down. Why don't we choose a day to elect a young and capable clan leader? What do you think?"
The clan leader was obviously frightened by Yang Ziyao: "You...what did you say? You want to replace me?"
Yang Ziyao raised his eyebrows: "Obviously, yes. In the handling of this matter of my third brother, I doubt that you are not fair and just. Just because Mr. Yang is your in-law, you shield him and ignore the facts."
“If every clan leader covers up for someone as blatantly as you do, then why do we still need clan leaders and elders?” Yang Ziyao retorted righteously.
