Chapter 1687
Ye Chen's original plan was to take out a Rejuvenation Pill for Helena.
Half of it would be given to Helena to treat her illness, and the remaining half would be taken back for the critically ill Nordic Queen.
As long as she could return to Northern Europe to see the Queen and divide the remaining half of the Rejuvenation Pill into two parts, giving the Queen one of them, it would inevitably allow the Queen to wake up from her deep coma.
By then, it could be used as a condition to let the Queen pass the throne to her.
And the Queen, seeing the efficacy of the Rejuvenation Pill, would definitely do her best to help her ascend to the throne.
Ye Chen believed that for an old person who was already in a deep coma and terminally ill, being able to wake up again would be no different from living a second life.
Therefore, she would definitely cherish this opportunity extremely.
If she could get the second Rejuvenation Pill, her life could be extended healthily for at least several years or even longer. He believed she would definitely not be able to resist this temptation.
However, Ye Chen suddenly heard that Helena's sister, Olivia, was actually going to marry into the Rothschild family.
This was a good opportunity to contact the Rothschild family in advance.
Therefore, he wanted to go to Northern Europe personally to see what the purpose of the Rothschild family's marriage with the Nordic royal family was, and by the way, he could also touch the line of the Rothschild family.
Helena was ecstatic when she heard Ye Chen say he was going to Northern Europe with her.
She had witnessed Ye Chen's strength with her own eyes and knew that if Ye Chen took action, he would definitely be able to let her ascend to the throne smoothly!
By then, she would not only be able to save her mother but also completely wash away her shame!
Therefore, she said to Ye Chen with incomparable gratitude: "Mr. Ye, thank you!"
Ye Chen waved his hand, looked at the crowd around him, and said: "Thank you all friends for coming to Mount Ye Ling regardless of the danger today. Most of you have come from afar. Why don't you go to the Buckingham Hotel to rest later? I have to go to Northern Europe later today. Before leaving, I want to host a banquet at Buckingham to thank you all. Please be sure to give me the honor of attending!"
Ito Nanako hurriedly said: "Ye Chen-kun, you have important things to do, don't worry about us. And we didn't help much this time, how can we afford your personal banquet to thank us..."
Ye Chen said very seriously: "Nanako, we Chinese value affection and righteousness. Although my battle with the Cataclysmic Front today didn't let you all cross swords with the Cataclysmic Front, the affection you all showed by being willing to come and help me, Ye Chen, at such a time is worth more than a thousand pieces of gold in my eyes."
Gu Yanzhong stood out at this time and said with a smile: "Everyone, you are all gathered here today because you regard Chen'er as a good friend, confidant, or even family. Since Chen'er has said so, you might as well wait in Yanjing for a while. After the Ye family's ancestor worship ceremony, let's have a few drinks with Chen'er!"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Song immediately said: "Since Master Ye has said so, Song will wait until Master Ye is finished with the ancestor worship ceremony, and then drink to our heart's content!"
Ito Yuhiko also said: "Mr. Ye! Please be sure to prepare more good Chinese wine tonight! I will not return until I am drunk!"
Ye Chen laughed: "Mr. Ito, rest assured, there will definitely be enough good wine!"
Subsequently, Ye Chen looked at Song Wanting and said: "Wanting, I'll trouble you to arrange the buses that brought everyone here and send them to Buckingham to rest for a while."
Song Wanting immediately agreed and said softly: "Master Ye, rest assured, Wanting will arrange everything for everyone."
"Good." Ye Chen bowed his hands to the crowd again and said: "Everyone, the Ye family's ancestor worship ceremony is coming up, so I'll trouble you to go to the hotel to rest first. After the ceremony is over, I will come over as soon as possible!"
Everyone knew that the Ye family's ancestor worship ceremony was held only once every twelve years, solemn and solemn, and it was not a public ceremonial activity, so it was indeed inappropriate for everyone to stay and watch.
Therefore, everyone said goodbye to Ye Chen and Ye Zhongquan one after another, took the buses arranged by Song Wanting and Ito Nanako, left Mount Ye Ling, and headed to the Buckingham Hotel in Yanjing.
After the buses left, except for the Cataclysmic Front soldiers kneeling on the ground and the Su family father and son, the rest were all Ye family members and the butler, Tang Sihai.
The Cataclysmic Front, led by Wan Pojun, knelt neatly in a pyramid shape with nearly a hundred people. These people kept their legs together, arms bent, and kowtowed their foreheads to the ground at the same time.
After all, they were all practitioners, so everyone maintained the same angle and posture when kneeling, looking neat and uniform.
Moreover, they all knelt on the ground in a state of incomparable piety.
Especially Wan Pojun, who was kneeling at the very front, had a face full of shame even in the crook of his arms.
As for the Su family father and son, although they didn't dare to be negligent, they couldn't support themselves with their physical strength. After kneeling for a while, their bodies couldn't hold up, so they could only let their upper bodies lie on the ground.
Thus, the two's kneeling posture was almost exactly the same as Song Jiang's in the old version of the TV series "Water Margin".
As for the Ye family, Ye Changkong, Ye Feng, and others looked at Ye Chen uneasily, fearing that he would settle scores with them at this time.
Ye Chen watched the bus convoy go down the mountain, turned around slowly, stared at the Ye family members with burning eyes, and said coldly: "Today, in front of the Ye family's ancestors, I officially take over all the affairs of the Ye family. The first thing after taking over is to properly supplement the calcium for the spineless Ye family descendants!"
The guilty crowd shivered upon hearing Ye Chen's words. They saw Ye Chen's posture and knew that he was about to start settling accounts.
At this time, Old Master Ye, who had just had the Ye family's power taken away by Ye Chen in one sentence, said righteously: "Chen'er! The current situation of the Ye family indeed needs to be properly rectified! You must not show mercy because of family affection!"
Ye Chen nodded and said coldly: "That's for sure! Some Ye family descendants, in order to survive, do not hesitate to throw the Ye family's dignity and interests behind them, do not hesitate to hand over the ancestral graves and family business, and even prepare mourning clothes in advance to wear mourning for people who are not related to them to pray for forgiveness. What is the difference between these people and the traitors who rebelled and surrendered during the national crisis back then?!"
All the Ye family members who were hiding mourning clothes trembled with their legs.
Ye Changmin, who feared Ye Chen the most, knelt on the ground with a thud, choked up with snot and tears: "Chen'er... Auntie was wrong... Auntie is sorry for the Ye family's ancestors... You are now the head of the Ye family, no matter how you punish me, Auntie will have no complaints..."
While crying, she took out the mourning clothes she had hidden in her arms, threw them on the ground, and cried regretfully: "Chen'er, please look at the fact that Auntie was the first to know her mistakes and accept punishment, and deal with Auntie lightly. Auntie will definitely not commit this again in the future..."
Ye Changkong, Ye Changyun, and others were instantly stunned.
They were still wondering why Ye Changmin, who had the fiercest temper, was the first to admit her mistake today. It turned out she wanted to grab the first prize to strive for a lighter punishment!
Ye Changkong gritted his teeth with hatred and cursed inwardly: "How on earth does Changmin's brain work?! Even a wall-side grass doesn't react as fast as her!"
