Although the uncle and aunt were called by Chunyu, they came all the way after receiving the letter, and they also said so many heart-warming words. Ye Jiayao was very grateful to them.
It's just that she doesn't understand Chunyu, hurting her and doing this for her at the same time, what is he thinking? He has not shown up for the past few days, and there is no one to ask him.
I originally wanted my uncle and aunt to live in the small courtyard, but my uncle said that the prince had already made arrangements and would pick her up as soon as she got off the carriage. Besides, living here would easily reveal her identity, so she would not contact her for the time being. My father takes care of her, and everyone in the family feels relieved.
Ye Jiayao wanted to say, what did he take care of? I'm so angry.
The next day, someone came to the palace to tell Ye Jiayao.
When Ye Jiayao saw this strange father-in-law, she was still frightened by what happened to Concubine Mei last time, so she had to ask a few more questions.
"Did the emperor send me to cook the royal meal?"
"Yes."
"My father-in-law is on duty at Zichen Palace?"
"Why do you ask so many questions? Hurry up and don't delay things." The father-in-law was impatient.
"Then... dare I ask my father-in-law what your last name is?" Ye Jiayao smiled shyly, asking even if she was not allowed to, otherwise she would be deceived again.
"My surname is Yao, can I leave now?"
Ye Jiayao smiled and said, "You can go." She turned around and said to Xiao Lu, "Go tell Manager Zhao that Eunuch Yao and I have gone to the palace, and let him make arrangements for the restaurant."
Ye Jiayao followed Eunuch Yao into the palace. As she walked, she realized something was not right. Although the buildings in the palace are all similar, she has a good sense of direction. She paid special attention to the Zichen Palace and the Imperial Kitchen last time she went there. She is sure that this road is not going to the Zichen Palace or the Imperial Kitchen. of.
"Eunuch Yao, may I ask, where are we going?"
Eunuch Yao rolled his eyes and said in a sharp voice: "Just follow me."
Ignore Ye Jiayao again.
Ye Jiayao had no choice but to memorize the road silently, and after walking for a while, Ye Jiayao suddenly saw a familiar figure in front of her.
It's Susu.
Ye Jiayao hurriedly told Eunuch Yao: "Eunuch Yao, I'm going to say hello to Third Young Master Su."
"Nothing." Eunuch Yao was very unhappy.
"It'll be fine in a moment." Ye Jiayao ran to greet Su Su Su regardless of whether he answered or not.
"Mr. Su, what a coincidence! We can meet him here."
Su Yi turned around, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and nodded in return.
"Mr. Su, please tell me who lives in the palace in front of you?"
Su Yidao: "In front is the Ninghe Hall of the Queen Mother."
Ye Jiayao thought, could it be that the Queen Mother was looking for her
Su Yi glanced at the father-in-law who was leading Ye Jiayao into the palace, and frowned: "Who announced your entry into the palace and you didn't know about it?"
Ye Jiayao shook her head and smiled bitterly: "The people in the palace are so strange. They like to act mysterious, which makes me tremble every time I enter the palace. Don't be like the last time, when I almost couldn't get out."
Ye Jiayao implicitly hinted that if she couldn't get out, at least someone would know where she was going.
"It's time to go." Eunuch Yao urged.
Ye Jiayao cupped her fists and saluted: "I'll take my leave now."
Su Yi nodded slightly and watched Ye Jiayao enter Ninghe Palace.
Ye Jiayao finally met this mysterious owner, Princess Liuli.
"Li Yao, you are so brave." Liuli showed off her power as soon as they met.
Ye Jiayao was stunned for a moment: "Didn't the princess say that the incident was over last time?"
Liuli snorted angrily: "Where are the mooncakes we agreed on? Where are the delicious ones we agreed on?"
Uh... It turns out it was for this. Ye Jiayao patted her chest and almost had a heart attack because of her fright.
She smiled and said, "Princess, it's not that we don't want to send the little ones, it's the people in the palace who say that food from outside is not allowed to be brought into the palace casually. If the masters eat up their stomachs, the head on the little neck will not be saved."
"Then you still gave it to the Crown Princess? Did you give it to the old princess? They can all give it, but I can't? Li Yao, I think you did it on purpose." Liuli pouted.
"It's unjust. The princess really wronged the younger one. It was His Highness the Crown Prince's order to bring food to the princess. There is an imperial doctor to look after her. Whatever goes wrong is the imperial doctor's business and has nothing to do with the younger one. As for the old princess, then Prince Jing brought it back all by himself, and it has nothing to do with the little one." Ye Jiayao said, you can definitely rest assured of the things she made, but what worries you is the person you want to give them to. If Liuli secretly causes trouble, wouldn't it be a thankless task for her?
"Forget it, let's not talk anymore, Li Yao, let me ask you, have you ever stayed in Heifenggang?" Liuli returned to the topic.
Ye Jiayao's heart skipped a beat. She had already guessed what Liuli was going to ask. She had to think carefully before answering, so as not to contradict Chun Yu's words.
"The little one didn't stay long, and Heifenggang was taken over by Prince Jing'an Hou and Prince Helian." Ye Jiayao replied.
"Then do you know the woman that Prince Jingan married in Heifenggang?"
Ye Jiayao thought for a while: "I heard that such a thing happened."
"Then have you seen that woman? What does she look like?" Liuli asked curiously.
The news she found recently said that Miss Ye Jia had married the eldest son of the prefect of Jinan and was now in Jinling. Then she heard that there was something going on about the real and fake Miss Ye a while ago. , and now she can't figure out whether Mrs. Wei is the Miss Ye that Chunyu mentioned.
Anyway, this incident made her quite depressed. There was a turmoil in the city now. Even if she married Brother Chunyu in the future, she would still be a step-wife. How aggrieved that she, the noble princess, would be a step-wife!
"Back to the princess, I was working in the kitchen downstairs, cooking for the minions below. Prince Jingan was the third head of the village. They lived in the core area of the village, where I couldn't go up there. , so I didn’t see it.” Ye Jiayao said.
Liuli was very disappointed. She thought Li Yao would know something, but she didn't know after asking three questions.
"Didn't you save the life of Prince Jing'an? Why are you still just a little cook? He didn't even promote you?" Liuli expressed doubts.
Ye Jiayao sneered: "If the copycat hadn't been broken down so quickly, I guess the younger ones would have been able to go to the core area to cook for the bosses."
Liuli gave her a white look: "Go ahead."
Ye Jiayao thought for a while and came up with an idea: "Princess, why don't you ask Miss Wei about this matter? Regardless of whether she is really Miss Ye, she is definitely from the Ye family. Miss Ye's affairs , she knows best."
Throw this hot potato to Jin Rong and let Jin Rong answer it by herself. If she admits that she is Miss Ye, then she is accusing Chun Yu of lying. Who will Liuli believe? Haha, this is fun.
Outside Ninghe Palace, Su Yi finally saw his mother and Princess Yide coming out together.
Yide was very envious when she saw Su Yi's graceful appearance, elegant temperament, and bookish air. One of her two sons became a martial artist. She really hoped that Xiao Jing could become a literary student, so that she would be both civilized and martial arts. Unfortunately, Xiao Jing has not been able to do so until now. If you can't do it with words, you can't do it with force.
"Su Yi, the Queen Mother likes the Diamond Sutra you copied very much."
Not to mention the Queen Mother, even she was envious after reading it and wanted a copy. Su Yi's regular script was as elegant and handsome as his person.
Mrs. Su smiled and said: "The eldest princess just likes it, so I asked Su Yi to make a copy for you."
Su Yi cupped his hands and saluted: "Which scripture does Her Royal Highness the Princess like?"
Yide was overjoyed: "Do you have the Guan Infinite Life Sutra? Next year is the birthday of the Queen Mother."
Su Yidao: "Junior can ask Master Hongji for it."
"Then I'll trouble you."
"It is an honor for this junior to serve Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."
Yide smiled and said: "Mrs. Su, I really envy you, how did you give birth to such an outstanding son."
Mrs. Su smiled: "The eldest princess is joking, Prince Helian is the best among people and a role model for the children of Jinling."
The two complimented each other and were satisfied with each other.
Su Yi asked: "Mom, did you see Li Yao who lives in the sky just now?"
Mrs. Su said: "I have never seen anyone coming."
Yide asked curiously: "Li Yao entered the palace?"
Su Yi nodded and said: "When this junior saw her entering Ninghe Palace, I thought it was the Queen Mother who announced her."
Yide thought about it and knew what was going on. Liuli must have called Li Yao here. What did she want to do? If something happens to Li Yao, Xiao Jing will be anxious again. Yide smiled and said, "You go ahead, I have something else to do."
Su Yi smiled slightly. With the eldest princess taking action, Li Yao should be fine.
In the Liuli Palace, Liuli's eyes lit up after hearing Ye Jiayao's idea, yes, why didn't she think of it! Regardless of whether Miss Wei is really Miss Ye, there must be a relationship between them.
"Li Yao, have you seen Prince Jing'an recently?" Liuli asked again.
Ye Jiayao said: "I haven't seen you. I've been busy with the restaurant recently. It seems that the Crown Prince Jingan hasn't been here for a while."
Liuli sighed: "Maybe the old Marquis is back and he wants to fulfill his filial piety at home."
Uh... Is the old Marquis back? No wonder, not only Chunyu didn't come, but Chunfeng was nowhere to be seen. She thought Chunyu was avoiding her or didn't want to see her.
There is also Zhao Qixuan. Since Su Su came back, he has become more honest and no longer goes out to have fun. Xiao Jing is even more strange. He has not seen him for several days.
"The eldest princess has arrived." The palace people outside sang the news.
Liuli hurriedly stood up to greet her, while Ye Jiayao lowered her eyebrows and waited respectfully.
Princess Yide came in and saw Li Yao. Sure enough, she was here. She deliberately asked with a stern face: "Li Yao, what are you doing here?"
Liuli said first: "Aunt Huang, I asked him to come here. I want him to teach me how to cook delicious food."
Yidebo scolded: "You haven't left the palace yet, how can you just announce the entry of a man from outside? You want to learn how to cook delicious food. Isn't there a royal chef in the palace?"
Liuli said, "That's why she secretly asked someone to bring Li Yao in. She couldn't get out. What can I do?"
Yide said to Li Yao: "Leave quickly, you can't come to this kind of place."
If Li Yao was granted amnesty, he hurriedly bowed and resigned.
Fortunately, the eldest princess is here. Talking to Liuli is really Alexander. If he says something wrong, it will be another dispute.
Liuli watched Li Yao walk away, but she didn't dare to scream. She originally wanted to hear what Li Yao said about Brother Chunyu in Heifenggang!
He Lianjing didn't know that Li Yao had entered the palace yet. He went to Zhao Qixuan early in the morning. Today was the seven-day limit Zhao Qixuan said. He waited at Qixuan for a long time before he got the five hundred thousand tael pass. He guessed After getting the Grand Pass, I went to find Xia Chunyu.
