The first thing that came to Ye Lizhu's mind was that she couldn't get married. Novel about the Gege Party

How could she get married with such a weak body and half a foot in the coffin? Although Ti Xiao could survive for a while, Ti Xiao was not from the capital after all, and the two could not see each other all the time.

As for what Jiang Ranyi said before about marrying Ti Xiao...

Ye Lizhu didn't dare to think too deeply.

Firstly, whether her father would agree or not is a question. Secondly, if she marries Tixiao because of her health, it would definitely be unfair to Tixiao. It would be a kind of deception.

If Ti Xiao knew that she was approaching him not out of love, but because of her physical needs...

Ye Lizhu thought of Ti Xiao's usually cold eyes and shuddered slightly, feeling a little scared in her heart.

Mrs. Jun saw that Ye Lizhu's expression was wrong and said, "Zhuzhu, what's wrong with you?"

Ye Lizhu shook his head and said reluctantly: "Aunt, I'm fine. I'm just worried that the boy will tell Mr. Tian about our visit."

Jun shook his head: "Don't worry, he has neglected his duties, so he won't sue him easily. Tian Zhuo is also a fool. He really thinks that he can say anything casually in his own house."

If Jun hadn't been on guard and wanted to meet Tian Zhuo in advance, so he came to the place where Tian Zhuo often went in and out, I'm afraid he wouldn't have known that this person was so evil.

Ye Lizhu asked again: "How do you plan to ruin this marriage?"

The Jun family must not let the Tian family take the initiative to break off the engagement. If the Tian family takes the initiative to break off the engagement, it will almost tell the entire capital that they despise the daughter of the Jiang family. Therefore, it was natural for the Jiang family to propose breaking off the engagement.

But there has to be a valid reason.

Mrs. Jun patted Ye Lizhu's hand gently: "Zhuzhu, I will plan this matter when I get back. Just wait and see, I want you to see what happens to those who bully us. In the future, you will be bullied. Yes, just tell your aunt."

Ye Lizhu nodded.

In fact, she felt that she would not be bullied anymore. Wu Shi, who bullied her, had been taught a lesson by Hai Tan and was so angry that he did not dare to speak out.

Except for Wu Shi, no one seemed to bully me.

...

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Ye Lizhu and Jiang Ranyi are still living in the house outside the capital.

Although Ye Lizhu's body was still soft and weak, she did not cough up blood as usual.

In the blink of an eye, the prince returned triumphantly from Chenzhou, annihilated the Shubaishan bandits in Jinshan Mountain, and took back the head of the King of Jinshan Mountain.

The suppression of bandits in Jinshan could be completed in such a short period of time, naturally without the help of King Qin, so King Qin also wanted to return to Beijing.

In order to celebrate the prince's safe return, the queen held a banquet in Zhaoyang Palace.

Ye Lizhu and Jiang Ranyi entered the palace together.

On the way, Ye Lizhu probably knew that King Qin entered the palace the day before yesterday.

Ti Xiao indeed brought the prince back the day before yesterday. Most people in the capital did not know that Ti Xiao also brought soldiers and horses to Chenzhou. Moreover, the soldiers and horses were not just one or two, but tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and he managed to hide it from everyone quietly. People, from Xianzhou to Chenzhou, the two places are thousands of miles apart, and they passed through many places. The officials in these places didn't know what happened if they didn't get the news, but none of them passed the news to the capital.

The emperor didn't know about this until he arrived in Jincheng, Chenzhou.

Last night, the emperor hosted a banquet, and Ti Xiao took out King Jinshan's head at the banquet.

Many of the people present were civil servants, and it was rare to see a bloody head. The emperor had not seen such a bloody scene for many years.

Ti Xiao didn't need to take off his sword when he entered the palace. His precious sword Zhongyuan was placed on the table. He drank wine indifferently and said casually: "His Royal Highness the Prince cut off the heads of the Jinshan bandits with his own hands."

At this time, no one cares whether the head was chopped off by the prince or Ti Xiao.

Some civil servants had to stand up and praise the prince.

Tixiao brought many soldiers and horses over and stationed them outside the capital. He said that he wanted the prince to learn military training. No matter how nice Tixiao said to the outside world, in fact, he was a threat to the emperor.

The emperor knew that Ti Xiao was no longer polite and accepted him as the emperor. As Xianzhou grew bigger, war really broke out. There was really no capable general in the capital who could do more than Ti Xiao.

He had no choice but to return the powers that he had taken away from the prince to the prince some time ago.

A banquet made everyone feel uneasy, and the emperor regretted it long ago.

The suppression of bandits in Jinshan was originally a trap he set for the prince. Unexpectedly, Ti Xiao came to help the prince and made this incident a meritorious achievement of the prince. After finally reducing the crown prince's power, and now returning it, the emperor was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and the originally proud second prince Zhao Yi also changed his face.

After entering the palace gate, Ye Lizhu and Jiang Ranyi got off the carriage. Because they arrived early, they did not go to Zhaoyang Palace first, but took a walk in the Imperial Garden.

The scenery in the palace is naturally different from that outside. Many types of plum blossoms cannot be seen outside at all.

Jiang Ranyi loved plum blossoms. She walked around the garden admiring the flowers, while Ye Lizhu sat in the pavilion.

Haitan followed Ye Lizhu where he was, and the two palace servants in the Queen's Palace followed Jiang Ranyi, fearing that Jiang Ranyi would get lost in the imperial garden.

Haitan said: "Your Majesty will host a banquet in the palace today. The prince has accomplished something this time. Your Majesty has given the prince face, so he must have a good celebration. The master also entered the palace in advance today. We will go back with him when we return." "

At this time, Ye Lizhu heard a voice: "Miss Ye."

She and Haitan turned around in surprise and saw a young man in brocade clothes approaching, it was the second prince Zhao Yi.

The emperor and the prime minister were playing chess in the imperial garden. Zhao Yi was going to pay respects to the emperor, but unexpectedly he met Ye Lizhu on the way.

Ye Lizhu stood up politely and saluted: "Your Highness, the Second Prince."

Zhao Yi looked at Ye Lizhu calmly.

She was wearing a plain blue dress with a snow-white cloak around it. Her dark hair was hidden in the cap of the cloak. She had a beautiful little face without any smile, and her naturally affectionate peach blossom eyes were full of alienation.

Zhao Yi wanted to get this stunning beauty from the first time he met Ye Lizhu. However, Ye Lizhu's identity was different from others. If he wanted to marry her, he would have to pay some price. Even if he paid the price, Ye Fu'an might not agree.

So Zhao Yi could only watch helplessly.

He stepped forward a little and said: "It's so cold outside, why don't Miss Ye go and sit with the Imperial Concubine for a while? The Imperial Concubine is a kind-hearted person, and she likes young girls like the young lady the most."

Zhao Yi wanted to sit with Ye Lizhu and talk for a while.

Ye Lizhu inexplicably disliked Zhao Yi's eyes.

It was clear that when Ti Xiao looked at her, he was more bold than when Zhao Yi looked at her, but Ye Lizhu didn't have any objection to Ti Xiao.

Haitan said: "Your Highness the Second Prince, our lady is going to Zhaoyang Palace now. Do you have something to do? We will leave first."

Zhao Yi said: "I'm not busy. I haven't seen Miss Ye for a few months. I want to ask about Miss Ye's health..."

He was so focused that he didn't even know who was coming from behind.

Ye Fu'an had a gloomy face, and next to him was the emperor.

Ye Lizhu did not recognize the emperor and only called "Dad".

Zhao Yi hurriedly turned around. When he saw Ye Fu'an's face, which was darker than the bottom of the pot, his heart sank and he stepped aside: "I have met my father."

Only then did Ye Lizhu realize that the middle-aged man in ordinary clothes next to Ye Fu'an was the emperor. She also bowed: "I have seen your majesty."

The emperor said: "Yi'er, Miss Ye, all of you, please get up."

Ye Lizhu's appearance is indeed good, and the emperor does not blame Zhao Yi for being so rude. After thinking for a while, the emperor said: "Miss Ye and Yi'er were having a pleasant conversation just now. Prime Minister Ye and I came over and interrupted you."

Ye Fu'an's face became even more ugly. He said to Ye Lizhu: "Zhuzhu, men and women are not intimate. Even though you are in the palace, you must observe etiquette. Why are you talking to the second prince so casually?"

Ye Lizhu knew that Ye Fu'an was trying to step down for her, so that the emperor's words of "we had a great conversation" would fall through. She said: "The second prince has a distinguished status. When my daughter met His Highness, she just bowed and said nothing else."

Ye Fu'an said: "Don't walk around casually next time. Fortunately, His Majesty and I saw it this time. If others saw it, your reputation will definitely be damaged."

After hearing Ye Fu'an's words, the emperor had no choice but to say in order not to let the important ministers feel cold: "It's just a greeting, my dear, why are you involved in reputation? I and Yi'er will definitely not let outsiders talk nonsense about what happened today. .”

Ye Fu'an then softened his expression. He looked at Zhao Yi and said: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, a few days ago you asked your men to transport grain and grass from Wanzhou to relieve Nanzhou. There were some mistakes. I was about to ask you. It just so happens that His Majesty is here, let's change the place to talk. Your Majesty, you and the second prince will leave first, and I will give my daughter a few words."

Zhao Yi's face turned even darker. Ye Fu'an was clearly targeting him. He just said a few words to Ye Lizhu. It was normal. Ye Fu'an's mind was smaller than the eye of a needle and he insisted on finding out his mistakes again.

After the emperor and Zhao Yi left, Ye Lizhu said: "Dad, I didn't want to talk to him. He insisted..."

Ye Fu'an patted Ye Lizhu's shoulder: "Okay, dad knows. It's all our fault that Zhuzhu is too beautiful."

Ye Fu'an didn't know that if Zhao Yi kept pestering him, it would be difficult for Ye Lizhu to get away due to his identity.

He said: "This time dad will beat him. Next time he pesters you, dad will be rude to him."

The chess game between Ye Fu'an and the emperor has ended. In two quarters of an hour, all the ministers in the palace in front should be ready. It was not convenient for him to stay here for a long time, so he only asked: "Be careful in the palace. Don't eat what others give you casually, and don't talk too much to strangers. Have fun with your cousin."

Ye Lizhu nodded. She was no longer a three-year-old child. She understood what Ye Fu'an said.

People often passed by this place. Just as Ye Fu'an was about to tell Ye Lizhu to go to the queen, two more people came to meet him.

It is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness King Qin.

Ye Fu'an asked Ye Lizhu to stand behind him, and he bowed his hands and stepped forward: "His Royal Highness, Your Highness the King of Qin."

Ye Lizhu performed a Wanfu ceremony.

Ti Xiao looked Ye Lizhu up and down, and then said: "Prime Minister Ye, is this your beloved, Miss Ye?"

Ye Lizhu raised his eyes and looked at Tixiao.

His face was as cold as ever, handsome and arrogant, with no emotional fluctuations visible.

Ye Fu'an was afraid that Ti Xiao would fall in love with Ye Lizhu, so he insisted on allocating Ye Lizhu to the prince.

Ye Fu'an still clearly remembered the incident at the banquet the day before yesterday when Ti Xiao suddenly took out a bloody human head to scare the emperor. This person is definitely not a kind person, and his daughter cannot go to the prince's side.

Ye Fu'an said: "My little girl just felt unwell and almost fainted, so I came over to take a look. Zhuzhu, this is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. You should have seen him in the Queen's Palace. This is His Highness King Qin. According to your seniority, you should call him King Qin. An uncle."

Ye Lizhu bowed again: "His Royal Highness, Uncle King Qin."

Ti Xiao's eyes suddenly darkened.

Ye Fu'an smiled and said: "My little girl is the most timid. She is obedient when meeting people, and her health is not good, so she can only keep her at home. King Qin, don't argue with these juniors."

The corners of Ti Xiao's lips curled up coldly: "Of course not. The people at the banquet should have almost arrived. Prime Minister Ye, we will go there first."

When passing by Ye Lizhu, she had a light fragrance and a ruby dangled between her eyebrows. The small ruby reflected the cinnabar, which not only did not look tacky, but made the whole face look more charming.

After walking far away, Zhao Yun smiled and said: "Uncle, it turns out that Prime Minister Ye doesn't know that you and Miss Ye have met. If he knew that you and Miss Ye had a tryst at night, he would be so angry that his beard would stand up."

Tixiao said lightly: "So curious?"

Zhao Yun stopped gloating: "Not curious, not curious at all."

Ti Xiao didn't care about Zhao Yun, a kid. He remembered the way Ye Lizhu's lips parted slightly and called him "Uncle King Qin" just now, but his heart suddenly became angry and he just wanted to bully her when he went back.
