2427 Everybody’s happy
Moreover, from the guards’ conversation, Yin Heng learned that Yin Yuerong had ordered Auntie Rong to ask Si Yehan for him. However, this time, they weren’t retrieving him to save him—it was to take his life away.
The fear that plagued Yin Heng couldn’t be described with words anymore. No matter what, he couldn’t end up in Yin Yuerong’s hands! He absolutely couldn’t!
…
Inside the dungeon, Yin Heng watched the man he hated striding inside. He concealed all the dissatisfaction on his face and put on a front. “Elder Brother…”
Right now, he didn’t care about anything. Nothing was more important than his life.
Si Yehan apathetically stared at Yin Heng. “Congratulations on regaining your freedom.”
What? Si Yehan is really releasing me?
Yin Heng’s face dropped immediately. Regaining his freedom…? No, he didn’t want his freedom! He was willing to stay in this place forever, even if it meant being a prisoner!
Yin Heng believed that Si Yehan was well aware Yin Yuerong absolutely wouldn’t give him any chance of survival after he was released.
Si Yehan wanted him to die!
“You can reunite with Mother soon,” Si Yehan added aloofly.
“No… Elder Brother, it’s quite nice here… I don’t need to go out yet!” Yin Heng vehemently shook his head.
“It’s not up to you.”
After saying that, Si Yehan ordered his men to drag Yin Heng out of the dungeon and evict him.
Within 15 minutes of Yin Heng being kicked out, Auntie Rong appeared and ordered her people to take Yin Heng away.
A problem that originated from the Yin family naturally had to be resolved by the Yin family themselves.
Everyone knew that there wouldn’t be a wisp of news of Yin Heng in the Independent State from today onward. This person would disappear forever.
He was merely an orphan who was brought home and personally nurtured by Yin Yuerong. He managed to climb to this position today, but his ambition grew bigger and bigger. Not only did he attempt to shove away the rightful master but he also conspired with outsiders behind Yin Yuerong’s back and even wanted to send Yin Yuerong to her death. No one felt a trace of sympathy for Yin Heng’s fate.
Inside Si Yehan’s manor:
Ye Wanwan released a sigh of relief and looked at Si Yehan. “Your mom wanted you to release Yin Heng but you refused to do so. Who were you throwing a tantrum for? Isn’t it great that you released him?! This way, everybody’s happy!”
Auntie Qiao visited them many times in the hopes that Si Yehan would free Yin Heng but was rejected every time. In the end, Ye Wanwan couldn’t stand it anymore and forced Si Yehan to release the man.
Of course, while they were “releasing” Yin Heng, to put it plainly, they were merely delivering Yin Heng into Yin Yuerong’s hands.
A few days later, the summit reached its end, and the yearly bill revision hearing would finally begin.
The majority of the people who would attend the bill revision hearing were directors and higher-ups from the Arbitration Council. However, they also allowed a limited number of audience members. Due to her connection with Yi Lingjun, Ye Wanwan could also attend as an observer.
The bill hearing was everything but harmonious. Due to all kinds of proposed law revisions, the Arbitration Council’s higher-ups and directors were quarreling nonstop, their faces flushed with anger.
The Twelve Independent States had an extremely large number of laws and regulations, and minor adjustments had to be made every year. Because some bill revisions could violate people’s principles, arguments were unavoidable. After all, everyone possessed different opinions.
Disputes could be heard all morning. It wasn’t until Yi Lingjun spoke that the atmosphere loosened up a tiny degree.
…
“Alright, recently, the matter regarding residents of the Independent State marrying outsiders has evoked quite a few incidents. This is a rule that has been pa.s.sed down since ancient times. I would like to listen to everyone’s opinions on whether this rule is reasonable or not and whether we need to make revisions or not.”
Around the evening, Yi Lingjun interjected.
