When the group of people left Ninghe Palace, He Lianjing wiped his sweat and said, "Oh my God, I broke out in a cold sweat. I thought I was going to have a hard time today."
Xia Chunfeng also said with lingering fear: "My calves are still trembling..."
He Lianxuan and Xia Chunyu both rolled their eyes, promising!
"Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor, not only did he not punish us but also arranged errands for us. Is this a blessing in disguise?" He Lianjing said happily without realizing that he was being looked down upon.
Princess Yide scolded: "You still have the ability to be complacent here. If you get into trouble a few more times, my mother will be scared to death by you first. Go home and face the wall to think about the past. You are not allowed to step out of the house for a month."
Xia Youshi also scolded her son: "You too, next time, I will break your legs first."
He Lianjing exclaimed exaggeratedly: "The Emperor asked me to go to the Ministry of War to pick up an errand tomorrow! Why are I facing the wall at home?" There was a clear look of pride on his face.
Princess Yide glared at him: "I'll settle the score with you when I get home."
Seeing Chun'er and He Lianxuan standing together, Xia Youshi said, "You should also go home early. Mom has something to ask you."
Xia Chunyu nodded and watched them leave.
He Lianxuan asked as he walked: "What's going on between you and Li Yao?"
Xia Chunyu didn't want to hide it from him anymore. He didn't tell him before because his mind hadn't been finalized yet. Now that it was determined, he would definitely tell his best friend, and maybe he would need his help.
"She is the woman I married in the village."
He Lianxuan couldn't react: "Woman? You said she is a woman?"
"Her real name is Ye Jinxuan, and she is the eldest daughter of Ye Binghuai, a fellow scholar from Yangzhou..." Xia Chunyu explained how Ye Jiayao was plotted by her family, was kidnapped into the mountains, and became his woman, and how she was separated for life and death due to a misunderstanding, and finally she escaped death and came to Jinling, told He Lianxuan.
He Lianxuan sighed with emotion: "It's incredible, so twists and turns, it's really more exciting than what is said in the book."
Thinking that he had thought that Li Yao and Xiao Jing had broken their sleeves, He Lianxuan couldn't laugh or cry: "Then, what are you going to do?"
Xia Chunyu smiled slightly: "Marry her."
He Lianxuan was surprised: "Marry her? How? She can't even return home now. Even if she regains her identity as the eldest lady of the Ye family, it still doesn't match your identity. Besides, you can't make the decision on your marriage. Even if it's not Liuli will also be another princess and princess."
This is exactly what gives Xia Chunyu a headache.
"It would be easier if it were a concubine." He Lianxuan said.
"That won't work. If she is willing to be a concubine, why does she have to disguise herself as a man and live in the sky as a cook to make a living? She has a very fierce temper, and I don't want to wrong her." Xia Chunyu said with a bitter smile.
He didn't want to and didn't dare to wrong her.
He Lianxuan looked at him with surprised eyes: "I didn't realize that you are still a lover!"
Xia Chunyu smiled and punched him: "You will know how I feel when you meet the right person in the future."
He Lianxuan smiled wryly at himself: "I want to feel this feeling of special affection that belongs only to her, but she doesn't know which mother's womb I had in her yet!"
Xia Chunyu laughed loudly and teased: "Hurry up and see whose little girl is cute, take one home and raise it."
He Lianxuan punched her back and cursed with a smile: "Hurry up and give birth to a baby, I'll hold it."
Xia Chunyu said: "That won't work. I won't let my daughter marry an old man."
He Lianxuan tried to beat him, but Xia Chunyu quickly dodged and laughed.
Several palace maids passed by, Xia Chunyu quickly suppressed his smile and walked out with He Lianxuan.
"Hey, keep this matter a secret for now!" Xia Chunyu reminded.
He Lianxuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Let my brothers and sisters bring delicious food, otherwise I won't be able to shut my mouth."
In the Liuli Palace, Liuli lay on the Queen Mother's knees and sobbed: "Queen Mother, there is something wrong with Liuli in this matter, but they are too cruel. How can Liuli see anyone in the future..."
Someone had long informed her of what happened in Ninghe Hall, and the Queen Mother wanted to protect her, but the Emperor not only did not punish them, but also sent them errands. Liuli was a little panicked. What did this mean? The emperor is also dissatisfied with her? The Queen Mother can no longer protect her
The Queen Mother stroked her hair with pity and said earnestly: "Liu Li, the Emperor is right. You are old now and it's time to be sensible. Otherwise, how will you be a wife and mother in the future? The Ai family is old, who We know how many days we can live, but how can the Ai family feel at ease when you look like this..."
Liuli looked at the Queen Mother with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, Liuli knows she was wrong. Liuli will never let you worry about her in the future. Don't scare Liuli by saying such words again. Liuli is afraid..."
"The Ai family is not trying to scare you. Birth, old age, illness and death are all human events. Everyone has to go through this. I thought that the Xia family, a century-old family, would remain standing no matter how the court changes, and Xia Chunyu was such a good person. He looks stable and reliable. If you are handed over to him, the Ai family will have nothing to worry about. But now it seems that it is not possible. You haven't even married yet, and he treats you like this and dares to contradict the Ai family in person. This marriage, That's all." The Queen Mother sighed, she was very disappointed with the performance of Xia Youshi and Xia Chunyu today.
"But Liuli only likes him, and Liuli won't marry anyone but him." Liuli blurted out in desperation.
Yes, she just liked Chunyu, and she fell in love very early. When the Queen Mother was discussing with the emperor and the emperor's aunt to choose a husband for her, she was so worried that she was afraid that the one she would choose was not Chunyu. Fortunately, God bless him. , she was finally able to do so.
Just because she liked him, she couldn't bear it when Chunyu scolded her like that. She felt extremely wronged and felt that the whole world had abandoned her.
Even though she hated him so much in her heart, she never thought of giving up marrying him.
The Queen Mother sighed, "That's all. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, let them go."
Liuli bit her lips lightly, and a look of determination and cruelty flashed across her watery eyes. This incident had indeed taught her a big lesson. She would never be so reckless or reckless again. She was scheming and was being plotted stupidly. If anyone offended her, she would make him disappear silently.
Ye Jiayao couldn't feel at ease at all, worried about Chunyu and the others, and didn't know how the Queen Mother would react.
Looking at Liuli's arrogant look, it can be seen that the Queen Mother is not a reasonable person.
Unable to stay in the house, Ye Jiayao ran outside and sat on the steps in front of the door to wait for news. She believed that if Chunyu was okay, someone would send a message.
Jiang Yue came to accompany her.
"Sister Yaoyao, the prince will be fine."
Ye Jiayao said in dismay, "How do you know?"
You don't even know how big the trouble is this time.
Jiang Yue curled her lips: "My father said it, it's like a quarrel and conflict between children, what a big deal it can be!"
Ye Jiayao laughed, Uncle Jiang is so simple, do you think you are an ordinary person? That's Tianjia, the dragon's heart is unpredictable, and if you say a wrong word, you may lose your head.
However, she believed that Chunyu and the others would not lose their heads. Neither Prince Helian nor Marquis Jing'an were vegetarians, and the Queen Mother had to be careful. If they lost their heads, it would also be hers.
It's just that she feels guilty. After all, it was because of her, and everyone was affected by her.
Zhen Te Ma is depressed. From ancient times to the present, it has been an era of fighting for fathers. If you have power, you can be domineering. If you have no power, you have to behave with your tail between your legs.
"Third Madam, do you think this can be used?" Jiang Li came over and handed Ye Jiayao an "eggbeater" made of bamboo.
Ye Jiayao saw that the egg beater was very light. It was just a bamboo strip, split into eight thin strips, and a thin bamboo was used at the bottom to fix the eight thin strips into a bulging shape. She just said that, and Jiang Li actually did it.
"Yue'er, go get me an egg and a bowl."
Jiang Li said: "I'll go."
After a while, Jiang Li brought eggs and a bowl. Ye Jiayao cracked the eggs, separated the egg whites, and beat them in clockwise circles with a bamboo whisk. It didn't take long for a hard foam to form.
"What is this?" Jiang Yue felt so curious. Why did the egg whites become like this after being stirred
"This is a good thing. It has many uses. I will teach you later." Ye Jiayao is very satisfied with this bamboo egg beater. It beats easily and foams quickly.
"A Li, is there anything you can't make?" Ye Jiayao tilted her head and asked Jiang Li. She really admired A Li's hands and his imagination. No matter what it is, as long as she gives a rough idea, it can be done. Perfect present.
Jiang Li scratched his head in embarrassment: "I'm not good at cooking."
Ye Jiayao burst out laughing. Jiang Li, who seemed to be honest and dull, also had such a cute side, and the worries in his heart were relieved a little.
It's almost time for You.
Ye Jiayao held her cheek in one hand and stared at the courtyard door for a moment. Jiang Yue was about to fall asleep leaning on the pillar. Jiang Li was sitting in the courtyard doing carpentry work. He planned to make a dowry for the third lady.
The yard echoed with the rhythmic sound of wood chipping, and suddenly another rhythmic sound came.
The sound of horse hooves? Ye Jiayao suddenly became energetic and ran to open the door.
Just as Song Qi was about to raise her hand to knock on the door, the door opened, and her finger almost hit Ye Jiayao's face.
Madam..." Song Qi's hand froze.
"Song Qi, how's it going?" Ye Jiayao slapped his hand away and asked anxiously.
"Oh, the prince asked me to tell you that everything is fine, so that you can rest assured." Song Qi said with a smile.
"Is everything okay? Where is Prince Jing? Where is Chunfeng? Is everything okay?"
"Everything is fine. The young prince and the third young master got a blessing in disguise. The emperor sent an errand and they will take office tomorrow."
"Is there no punishment at all?" Ye Jiayao didn't quite believe it. The Queen Mother was so sensible? Or did Chunyu deliberately report the good news but not the bad news in order to reassure her
"The emperor asked the prince to go home and reflect and write a letter of repentance. There is nothing else." Song Qi said: "This is not a punishment at all. The prince can also take the opportunity to rest at home for two days, which is what he wants."
Jiang Yue came forward at some point: "Great, just say that the prince will be fine."
Ye Jiayao felt more relieved now and asked, "Where is the prince now?"
"I'm back home, but my wife called me as soon as I returned home, otherwise the prince would have come over in person." Song Qidao.
She is probably going to be scolded by my mother, Ye Jiayao thought, fortunately, the Queen Mother is not in danger, she will be scolded by her mother after a few words! I don’t know if this matter has been forgotten.
