Chapter 33 Family Trial

?

when--

The big bell rang, resounding throughout the house.

Everyone in the entire city lord's mansion was shocked, and looked at the ancient bell that was ringing in the central pavilion.

This is not an ordinary big bell, but the bell of the family judgment. Only when there are serious sinners in the family, the bell of judgment will be sounded only when a judgment is needed.

And the bell of judgment has not rang for decades.

The person who was judged last time the bell was tolled was rumored to have died as a result of the punishment.

The bell of judgment was sounded today, and I don't know who was so unlucky and was about to be judged by the family.

In the luxurious courtyard of red bricks and blue tiles, Ye Ao, who was meditating cross-legged, raised his eyes and looked at the bell of judgment, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Xia Wei looked worried: "Husband, why do I feel a bad feeling, is it because of Chen'er?"

Ye Ao held his wife's weed and said, "Don't worry, Chen'er will be fine."

...

In the spacious hall, because of the bell of judgment, a dense number of clansmen had already heard the news. The clansmen surrounded the hall. At this time, the hall with hundreds of people gathered was extraordinarily quiet, and the needles could be heard.

In the center of the highest part of the hall, there is a throne, which is the throne of the head of the family. A little bit below is the three elder thrones, and the next is the seat of the important chief of the family.

On both sides of the hall, there is a row of upper seats, which are seats for important personnel.

Others can only stand, not sit.

On the main seat, Ye Ao, the head of a family and a city, is sitting on it, burly and tall, with the majesty of a person in power in his eyebrows, not angry but arrogant, but at this time he looked at the man standing in the center of the hall. Ye Chen frowned deeply.

On the seat just below, Xia Wei's pretty face was full of worry, and her jade hand tightly held Huan'er's little hand. Neither of them understood what crime Ye Chen had committed to carry out such a serious family affair. trial.

Family trials have always been full of seriousness. Once they are really tried, Ye Chen will be really fierce. Even Ye Ao, who is the head of the family, can't make decisions, at least he will be imprisoned.

Although Ye Chen said don't worry,

But Ye Zimei's little face was still full of worry, her teeth bit her red lips, and her little palms were sweating.

If it wasn't for breaking the rules during the family trial, or she would have stepped forward and begged her grandfather to stand up for Ye Chen.

Only Ye Zhengyang looked at all this with a sneer, especially all the actions of Ye Chen towards Ye Chen, which filled him with jealousy and wished to kill Ye Chen.

Because Ye Zimei was his family's daughter-in-law, no one should blaspheme.

In the solemn hall, there was silence and silence. No one spoke. The atmosphere was very depressing. All eyes were either disdainful, stunned, surprised, contemptuous, or worried... all kinds of things. It landed on the boy in the center of the hall.

It's just that although Ye Chen has attracted everyone's attention, his expression is calm, without fear, and everything seems so calm.

This kind of calmness, whether it is forcibly pretended or possessed by itself, is enough to make people nod.

For cultivators, talent is very important, but xinxing is also very important, and sometimes it is even more important than talent.

Heart nature often determines a person's achievement.

Even the three hostile elders had to nod their heads in approval when they saw Ye Chen's calm performance, but the more so, the more fearful they were.

"The three elders, I don't know what my son Ye Chen has done wrong, to the point where a family trial is going to be held?"

There was silence in the hall, and Ye Ao in the main seat broke the silence and was the first to speak.

What does the family trial represent? He, the owner of the family, understands better than anyone else. Once he is tried, if the entire Ye family is judged to be abandoned, he will be imprisoned.

Although he and the three elders have always been at odds, but to get to this step because of this discord has already touched his bottom line, and it is intolerable no matter what.

"Patriarch, don't worry, Ye Chen will tell you what he did wrong. If he really made a big mistake, he should also be judged and punished to set an example." The three elders sneered in their hearts, especially seeing Ye Chen. Ao's face was even more sneer.

Although Ye Ao is the head of the family and the most powerful person in the entire Ye family, the three elders are only inferior, and they are not afraid at all.

And seeing Ye Ao deflated was exactly what they wanted.

"it is good."

Although there was only one simple word, anyone could hear the anger in Ye Ao's words. A terrifying pressure slowly overflowed and filled the hall. Suddenly, many people felt a great depression, as if they wanted to Out of breath.

Not to mention Ye Hua's younger generations, even some high-level principals turned pale for the first time.

The three elders also changed their expressions slightly, and after taking a deep look at Ye Ao, the first elder suddenly drank, like a spring thunder, and shocked the whole hall: "Ye Chen, can you plead guilty?"

The first elder was the master of the Ye family second only to Ye Ao, and he was in a high position, under the influence of power, not to mention the descendants of the younger generation, even the high-ranking leaders of other families were suddenly frightened and in a trance.

It's just that Ye Chen's expression didn't change, and he was not afraid of the pressure of the Great Elder. He responded coldly: "Excuse me, Great Elder, what crime did I commit?"

To be able to maintain such a calm performance when things are approaching, I have to say that this child's temperament is really extraordinary, even the three hostile elders are awe-inspiring.

At the same time, he thought of the amazing achievements of this child in front of him, the youngest master of the innate realm in history at the age of thirteen.

If it weren't for the incident two years ago, his amazing talent, and his unpretentious temperament, all of these things would definitely lead him to a higher level of achievement.

The Martial God Realm is not difficult, and it is even possible to achieve the same highest achievement as the ancestors of a country - the Heavenly God Realm.

It's just a pity that there is no if...

If this son is not a descendant of the hostile family master, even if he is a waste who can't cultivate, they will appreciate it very much.

But the fact is that the other party is, for the sake of future generations, they have to come forward.

"Hmph, you still haven't confessed your guilt now?" The elder took a deep look at Ye Chen, and then snorted coldly, "Okay, the old man will list your charges today—"

"There are three sins."

"You entered without permission and deliberately disrupted the order of the martial arts field, interfering with the cultivation of the tribe and affecting their further education. This is one of them."

"During this period, you provoked and beat Ye Hua for no reason, severely injured him, and even humiliated him in public. You violated Article 13 of the clan's rules, and children of the same clan should not kill each other. This is the second."

"Ye Zhengyang came forward to stop him in good faith, but you didn't change your mistakes, provoked divisions, and even tried to deal with Ye Zhengyang. This is the third one."

"Every item is clearly listed, and all the clansmen present have seen it for all to see. There are witnesses and material evidence. Don't you still plead guilty?"

The three charges were imposed on Ye Chen, and the elders were fierce, not angry but arrogant, and did not allow others to refute.

After some words, it makes sense, and people can't help but nod their heads, and they can't refute for a while.

On the other side of the hall, Ye Hua, whose head was bandaged, was crying: "I beg the three elders to give me an explanation. Ye Chen humiliated me in every possible way and beat me on the spot. I can swear to God that all this is true. …”

Ye Ao was not there at the time, so he didn't know the truth of the matter, but according to the confidant newspaper, the story was similar, but the meaning of it was distorted, causing his expression to change and sink.

His eyes swept coldly towards the three elders, anger overflowing, these three old guys, in order to deal with him, did not hesitate to distort the truth and frame his son Ye Chen, really despicable.

He was willing to speak for Ye Chen, but at this time, he saw Ye Chen nodded slightly at him and gave him a reassuring wink. He knew that Ye Chen had figured out a way to deal with it, so he didn't speak, and waited and watched the change.

Once Ye Chen really had an accident, he would have a big deal. He was the number one expert in the entire Ye family and even in Luo Feng City. Once he made a move, there were only three old guys on the scene who could restrain him a little, but he wanted to leave, no one could Can't stop it.

On the other side, Xia Wei and Huan'er were full of worry, watching all this nervously, worried for Ye Chen.

At this time, the second elder also spoke up and said, "Ye Chen, I advise you to quickly confess your guilt, take the initiative to confess your guilt, and get a light sentence. It will only be two or three years in prison at most. But if you refuse to plead guilty, you will be charged one more level of guilt. It's just as simple as being detained."

"Cousin Ye Chen, I'm not talking about you because of my brother, I advise you to confess your guilt, otherwise the family trial will not be easy." Ye Zhengyang opened his mouth, looking kind-hearted, but his eyes were full of drama and he looked at Ye morning.

It's just that Ye Chen didn't look at him at all, completely ignored it, which made Ye Zhengyang annoyed, what kind of attitude is this?

Immediately, he smiled coldly and watched all this from the sidelines. Even if he was stunned, he would not be able to shy away. Ye Zhengyang would not end well if he offended him.

Ye Chen smiled, full of coldness, and said, "Why do you have to confess your guilt? If you want to add a guilt, there is nothing to worry about. These three so-called sins and mistakes are not true at all. I have never interfered with the cultivation of other people in the martial arts field. I just happened to pass by. , Ye Hua forcibly shot, I was forced to fight back, this is the first and second reason. As for the third, it was Ye Zhengyang who took the initiative to coerce, and I have never provoked."

The elder snorted coldly: "Can someone testify for you?"

After all, he glanced coldly at the children of the other tribes present, and all of them lowered their heads, not daring to look at each other.

Ye Chen's expression darkened, these three old guys really wanted to frame him, but who is he, a generation of supreme rebirth, how could he be afraid.

Elder Yan floated out, couldn't help shaking his head and smiled: "This is the so-called clan, group formations, internal strife and disputes. For the sake of personal gain, you actually frame other clansmen, hehe, Xiao Chenzi, how are you going to deal with this? people."

Ye Chen rolled his eyes, and was quite unhappy with the title "Little Chenzi", but he was not helpless, and was about to speak, when a beautiful figure appeared in front of him, it was Ye Zimei.

A faint fragrance swept over his face, Ye Zimei was in front of Ye Chen, and he immediately caught everyone's attention, raising his beautiful and charming face, and looked at the elder, and said, "I can prove that Ye Chen My brother is not that kind of person."
