Breaking into the Inner Court
"Sigh, why is it so small?" In the outhouse, after peeing, Ye Kong still couldn't bear to pull up his pants. He lowered his head and pondered over his man symbol.
A twelve-year-old boy naturally had not developed yet. A bird could not fly high without feathers. This made him have no choice but to put away the idea of flirting with all the beauties from the other world. Of course, it was only temporarily. He was a hooligan. Since ancient times, hooligans loved beauties, and beauties loved hooligans. If they did not love beauties, they would be called eunuchs.
At this moment, another servant entered the outhouse. Ye Kong didn't want to look at him any longer, so he pulled up his pants and glared at the servant again. This hooligan's trick was really effective. The kid was so scared that he almost peed his pants.
In reality, these were just servants from the outer courtyard. They were all uneducated handymen. If Ye Kong went to the backyard, those servants would all be trained soldiers. Why would they be afraid of a child like him?
"Actually, there are still benefits to coming to the Alien Continent. At least there's no need to worry about monogamy. When I become rich, I'll build a big courtyard and raise a group of big sisters and young ladies. I can also bring a few evil slaves to tease a little girl on the streets when I'm bored. Hehe, this evil young master from the Alien Continent is also very happy.”
The more Ye Kong thought about it, the happier he became. However, his current situation made him worry.
For the sake of his future ambition, he still had to suffer! Learning! He had to learn!
"Mother, I want to practice martial arts. I want to learn how to read!”Ye Kong shouted as he ran back to his courtyard.
However, to Ye Kong's disappointment, Chen Jiuniang had no money. Education was an investment. Without compulsory education, many people could not afford to go to school. Learning literature was fine, but learning martial arts was a huge expense. Even the worst martial master would cost ten taels of silver a month. Chen Jiuniang definitely could not afford that money. In fact, they were short of money for food every month.
Chen Jiuniang had been thinking about it since her son was no longer stupid, but she couldn't think of a way. Now that her son asked, she just sighed and shook her head, feeling sorry for him.
"Kong 'er, don't worry. Mother will definitely do her best to embroider. I've already asked Aunt Li and the others to help me get some embroidery work from outside.”Chen Jiuniang comforted Ye Kong.
Looking at the pile of clothes in front of his mother, Ye Kong's heart ached. I have to work in the manor until midnight every day. If I take on embroidery work outside…How long will I have to work until? Do I still have to sleep?
"Mother, don't work too hard. This matter is not urgent.”Ye Kong felt his eyes turn wet uncontrollably, and he grabbed Chen Jiuniang's hands, choking up a little.
Silly, you're really lucky to have such a good mother!
Don't worry, I'll definitely become stronger! Let your mother live a good life! Because she is also my mother! In Ye Kong's heart, he truly regarded Chen Jiuniang as his own mother.
Ye Kong controlled his emotions and asked,""Father doesn't care about his son's education? Mother had to pay? Then how did the other rooms learn?”
Chen Jiuniang replied," The Second Mistress has two high-level martial arts masters from her family. I heard that the monthly tutoring fee is a hundred taels of silver. The Third Mistress also practiced martial arts before she married the General. Her three children were taught by the masters she invited. The Ninth Mistress is also the most favored. Her Ye You is also smart and quick-witted. She is the number one master teacher in the army hired by the General…"
Ye Kong flew into a rage when he heard this." F * ck her mother! All of them are Advanced Martial Masters, and they're the best in the military! F * ck, I'm so poor that I can't even afford to hire a low-level person! This is so unfair!"”
Chen Jiuniang said with tears in her eyes," Mother is useless. Kong 'er, you've suffered…"
Ye Kong didn't want to be angry any longer. He was the one torturing his mother, so he suppressed his anger and consoled her," Mother, don't worry, don't be anxious. Don't take on any embroidery work. I have my ways. I want to find a Martial Master who doesn't need money and is stronger than all of them!"”
Chen Jiuniang laughed when she heard that." Kong 'er, you're really getting better at making me happy. A martial master who's stronger than them doesn't even need to spend money. How can there be such a good thing?”
Ye Kong said seriously," Mother, I'm telling the truth. Don't think that I'm joking. As long as you use your brain more, you'll find a way to deal with everything in this world."”
"You haven't used your brain for more than ten years. Now that you're moving, even Mother can't catch up to you.”Chen Jiuniang smiled as she patted Ye Kong on the head. Suddenly, her expression changed as she thought of a very bad possibility.
"Kong 'er! Are you trying to steal my teachings? You can't do that!" Chen Jiuniang grabbed Ye Kong's hand in a panic. In the Cangnan Continent, a world that revered martial arts, the cultivation method of a martial art, the inner force mental cultivation method, and even the martial art moves were all kept secret. They could never be known to outsiders.
If one wanted to learn martial arts, one had to acknowledge a master and be taught by the master. If one didn't acknowledge a master and learned it secretly…the consequences would be quite serious. In serious cases, one's limbs would be crippled, and in light cases, one's eyes and tongue would be gouged out to ensure that the martial arts wouldn't be leaked.
"Who said I was going to steal a teacher?" Ye Kong laughed." Mother, you're thinking wrong. I want to practice martial arts with Father... Didn't you say that his martial arts were so strong that when he was young, he was unrivaled in the An Kingdom? What do you think of my idea?"”
" If the general is willing to teach you, that would be great. But I'm afraid..." Chen Jiuniang hesitated. Would Ye Haoran teach his own son, who was disliked like her?
"How do you know if it will work if you don't try?”Ye Kong smiled and stood up." Mother, let's go have breakfast. After we're done, I'll go see Father."”
The dining room was located in a corner of the outer courtyard. Chen Jiuniang led Ye Kong over. She hoped that everyone would know that her son had recovered and that his mind was clear, so they wouldn't call him a fool anymore.
However, it seemed that the effect was not good. Chen Jiuniang was originally ugly and spoke lightly. She had no power and was a stupid son. No one liked to talk to her. When she greeted others, they didn't seem to notice her. When others greeted her…this kind of situation basically wouldn't happen.
" Hey, little dog..." Chen Jiuniang called out the name of another servant who was passing by. This kid was getting married, so she had to trouble Chen Jiuniang to help him with his embroidery.
Chen Jiuniang wanted to break through from him, but who knew that he didn't care about her at all and walked past Chen Jiuniang.
Annoyed, Ye Kong tugged at the servant's clothes and forcefully pulled him back." What are you leaving for?!" My mother is talking to you!"
"Oh." The little dog bit a steamed bun and blinked his sleepy eyes, looking at Chen Jiuniang like an idiot.
"It's fine, it's fine. I just wanted to say that…my son is not stupid anymore.”Chen Jiuniang was a little embarrassed. She had wanted to say something, but it wouldn't matter if she didn't say anything. But who knew that Ye Kong would directly drag her over.
"Oh." Little Doggy nodded and walked two steps as if he was sleepwalking. He scratched his head." Her son isn't stupid anymore…What does it have to do with me?”
Chen Jiuniang was a little embarrassed, embarrassed that none of the servants and maids had given her any face, so Ye Kong naturally wouldn't drag anyone down with him.
He used violent means to block the other party and then told the other party solemnly," I'm officially informing you now that I'm no longer stupid…You can leave now.”Isn't this crazy?
"Mother, this kind of thing needs to be told to everyone with actions.”Ye Kong hugged one of Chen Jiuniang's arms and said with a smile," I just need to find an unlucky person and beat him up in front of everyone, just like how I beat up Li Laosi last night. I guarantee that by noon, no one will treat me like a fool anymore."”
It had to be said that Ye Kong's idea was not bad, and Chen Jiuniang couldn't refute it. However, she didn't dare to let Ye Kong cause any more trouble, so she quickly said," Kong 'er, you already hit Li Laosi last night. You can't cause any more trouble for me."”
"Don't worry, if others don't provoke me, I won't provoke him either!”Ye Kong smiled smugly.
Hehe, didn't you all bully me for being stupid? Come and try bullying me today. I'm waiting!
However, Ye Kong was disappointed. In the outer court's dining hall, only the servants and maids ate. These people didn't have as much free time as the young masters and young mistresses. They were the busiest in the morning, and would run off while munching on steamed buns. Who would play with a fool for no reason?
As for Chen Jiuniang, she was worried that her son would cause trouble, so she took the steamed buns and porridge, then hurried back with Ye Kong. She was glad that Sister Ma, who liked to make things difficult for her, wasn't here today.
Ye Kong's chance to establish his dominance had gone up in smoke, but he didn't care, because he had something more important to do, and that was to meet his father, Ye Haoran.
"Kong 'er, when you see your father, don't make him unhappy.”After breakfast, Chen Jiuniang tidied Ye Kong's clothes, not forgetting to say a few words to him.
Her son wasn't stupid anymore, which made her happy. However, it seemed that her son's temper wasn't that good now. He wanted to hit people and cause trouble at the drop of a hat.
Ye Kong smiled and said," Mother, don't worry. I'm neither stupid nor stupid. Wouldn't I be courting death if I fought with that old fellow? I'm just going to discuss with him about his eighth son's studies. Don't worry, I can't beat the old man, so I won't go against a rock.”
Chen Jiuniang was still worried, so she reminded him again," Kong 'er, don't talk back to your father. Even the most favored Ye You doesn't dare to talk back to him. Just bear with it. I know you have a bad temper. If the general doesn't want to, then forget it. Just bear with it if he chastises you…"
"I know, I know. I'm going." Ye Kong straightened his clothes and walked out the door. Suddenly, he wondered if this hooligan's walk was indecent. En, I still have to stand firm and walk in a straight line. Hehe, cheapskate dad, we father and son are ready to meet!
Obviously, Ye Kong had thought too simply about meeting Ye Haoran. On Earth, it wasn't a big deal for a son to meet his father if he wanted to. If he wanted to meet his father, he could do so. In fact, he didn't even need to go himself. He could only call out to his father, and his father would appear.
However, it was different in the Ye Residence of the Cangnan Continent. They had to report it. Of course, if it were other children, this would not be a big deal.
But this was something that others wouldn't consider a problem, but for Ye Kong, it wasn't that simple.
First, the two servants in front of the inner courtyard stopped him.
"Two big brothers, please make an exception and let me in.”Ye Kong said to the two servants with an obsequious smile.
"Who is your big brother?”The servant didn't give Ye Kong any face at all.
Ye Kong almost vomited blood when he heard this. He was Ye Haoran's son, so how did he become a nobody? Are you blind?
"Brothers, I am Ye Kong, the eighth son of Great General Ye. Please let me in to see my father.”Ye Kong said, suppressing his anger.
The servant had long since received orders from the Second Mistress, so he sneered." I know you're Ye Kong. Ye Kong, Ye Kong, you're just an empty head, haha."”
The two servants laughed. One played the good cop, while the other played the bad cop.
Another older servant said," I respectfully address you as Eighth Young Master. Don't make things difficult for me. Eighth Young Master, I heard that your brain is working well today, but you have to think about it. Why can the wives and aunts of the other families bring the young masters and young ladies to live in the inner courtyard, but only you live in the outer courtyard?”
The old servant paused for a moment after he finished speaking, to let Ye Kong understand that although he was the Eighth Young Master, the old master didn't like him. In fact, he even hated him.
Old Mr. Ding paused for a moment and said," It's fine if you're asking for a snub, but don't make us suffer a little. I advise you to go back."”
Ye Kong hadn't expected Ye Haoran to hate him so much that he couldn't even meet him. This was too much!
However, he couldn't be angry with the smiling old servant. He could only plead," Big Brother, that was in the past. Now, I've recovered. Please go in and report. When I get the reward later, I won't forget the two big brothers.”
The young servant laughed sarcastically." You got a reward? He probably got a board, right? It seems that your brain is still not good. Sorry, we don't want to be beaten up with you!”
He didn't allow her to enter the house and didn't even inform her. Was it so difficult to see her father? Ye Kong's anger was rising, and he pointed at the servant angrily." What are you talking about, kid? Believe it or not, I'll beat you up right now!”
The servant turned around and shouted at the inner courtyard," Men! Someone come quickly! Someone has trespassed into the inner court!"
"F * ck your ancestors! I'm really going to break through today!" Ye Kong roared as he punched the man's annoying face.
"Who dares to trespass into the Inner Academy? Don't you know the rules of the Ye Family? Anyone who trespasses the inner court will be punished as an assassin!”With a shout, a handsome young man with a pale face walked out, followed by a dozen valiant soldiers with podaos hanging on their waists.
Ye Kong scanned through the memories the fool had left for him, and immediately understood that the person who had come was the Second Mistress 'son, the second young master of the Ye family, Ye Wen. Behind him were the Ye family's personal guards, who were known for their ferocity and valiance.
It wasn't difficult for Ye Kong to beat up a few servants, but when it came to martial arts experts and the famous and powerful Ye Clan guards, he knew his place.
"So it's Second Brother." Ye Wen was the second oldest, so he was the second young master. Ye Kong quickly cupped his fists and said," I want to see my father, but this evil slave doesn't even open his eyes. How can I not let my son see his father?"”
Ye Wen and the others guessed that Ye Kong was coming to see his father, and they had been waiting for him for a long time. They smiled and replied in the words they had prepared beforehand," Eighth Brother, you've really recovered. I'm very relieved. You don't know, but when you were delirious, I didn't know how much I cared for you!”
That's right, taking care of him was like scolding and punching him. Ye Kong felt hatred in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. Smiling, he said," Thank you, Second Brother. Don't worry, I'll definitely repay your kindness."”
Know how to repay kindness? He probably wanted revenge, right? However, with your strength and martial arts, you won't have a chance in this lifetime. Ye Wen didn't expose it and said with a fake smile," Of course, Second Brother is always welcome."”
Ye Kong didn't want to waste time talking to him, so he said," Since Second Brother is here, can I go in and see Father?"”
Ye Wen smiled and said," It's not that I can't. The key is that Father has been closing his doors recently. Let alone you, even I can't see him."”
Ye Kong didn't know if he was telling the truth, but he knew that he probably wouldn't be able to meet Ye Haoran today.
"Thank you, then. I'll take my leave.”Ye Kong bowed, then turned around and left.
"Eighth Brother, don't be in a hurry to leave." Ye Wen followed him with a smile and said," Eighth Brother, there's no hope for you to see Father recently. Even if you climb the wall and enter the inner courtyard, there are still guards outside Father's room. It's secondary if you can't see him. If you make Father unhappy and get beaten, it'll be a big loss."”
Ye Kong said coldly," You don't have to worry about that, Second Brother.”
Ye Wen wasn't provoked by his tone. He smiled and said," I do have some news that can make Eighth Brother rest assured. You'll definitely be able to see Father within ten days."”
