A woman happened to be bringing water out. When she saw Ye Fu'an and Ye Jiayou entering the door, she hurriedly shouted inside: "The master and the young master are here!"
The maid at the door quickly reported inside.
Ye Lizhu had just woken up and ate some white porridge. She was drinking tea when she heard that her father and brother were coming.
Ye Fu'an gave Ye Jiayou a hand: "Hurry up and follow her. Your sister is soft-tempered. Don't make trouble in front of her."
Ye Jiayou followed Ye Fu'an into a mahogany hollow-carved door. Further inside, passing a blue gauze cabinet, Ye Jiayou saw a woman in a light green dress walking over, followed closely by two maids.
It's Ye Lizhu.
Ye Lizhu first looked at Ye Fu'an, then looked down at Ye Jiayou: "Is this Jiayou?"
Ye Fu'an pushed Ye Jiayou: "Why don't you call me sister?"
Ye Jiayou thought about his sister's appearance in his heart, and even secretly drew her sister. The most beautiful woman he had seen before was the Queen. Ye Jiayou thought that his sister would be as dignified and gentle as the Queen. Now that he met Ye Lizhu, Ye Jiayou finally realized that his sister was much more beautiful than the Queen.
It was a beauty that he could never imagine before.
Ye Lizhu pulled Ye Jiayou over and rubbed his cheek: "My brother has grown so tall."
Ye Jiayou had grown to the height of Ye Lizhu's shoulders, and he raised his eyes to look at her.
Ye Lizhu's eyes were red, and she thought of her mother again. After she came back, she could see her father and her younger brother whom she had never seen before, but she would never see her mother again.
She didn't want to mention her mother again in front of her father and brother and make them sad in vain.
Ye Lizhu wiped her tears and said, "My sister has only seen you now that you have grown so big."
Ye Jiayou felt sad when he saw his sister crying.
He was previously worried that Ye Lizhu would dislike him and be unfamiliar with him. Now looking at Ye Lizhu's appearance and her loving eyes, Ye Jiayou knew that Ye Lizhu loved his younger brother.
Moreover, Ye Lizhu is different from Wu, Liang and Zhou in that her love comes from the heart.
Ye Fu'an pulled Ye Jiayou away: "Your sister is weak, don't keep pressing her in front of her."
Ye Lizhu touched Ye Jiayou's hair: "It's okay, Dad, I'm happy to see my brother."
Ye Fu'an asked Ye Lizhu what he had eaten when he woke up and whether he had taken any medicine. After asking, he said to Ye Jiayou: "I'll see your sister tomorrow morning before going to school. I'll go back today. Your sister has to sleep."
Ye Jiayou didn't want to be separated from Ye Lizhu, so he said: "I will stay here tonight."
Ye Fu'an said: "How can this be done? If you make a noise in the middle of the night, your sister will not be able to sleep because of the noise."
Ye Lizhu smiled and said: "It's okay, the maids are watching. There is a bed outside the Bisha cupboard, and Jiayou sleeps there."
After all, Ye Jiayou was still young, just a child, and there was no need for so many taboos between siblings. Seeing that the two of them got along very well, Ye Fu'an told Ye Jiayou a few words to not make trouble at night, and then let him stay.
As soon as Ye Fu'an left, Ye Jiayou took out a pack of snacks from his sleeve: "Zhuzhu, I specially asked the eunuch to go to Concubine Xian. There is an aunt in Concubine Xian's palace who makes the most delicious jujube paste cakes. They are the same as those outside. The difference is that dates are not the dates we have here, they are unique to a small country in a desert in the northwest, and they taste particularly sweet and glutinous."
The relationship between the palace concubine and the outside world is also inextricably linked. Concubine Xian is the younger sister of Prince Chen. Ye Jiayou is a good friend of Prince Chen. The two are young, sweet-tongued and good at talking. The emperor also welcomes them and often lets them enter the palace. When they entered the palace, they basically went to Concubine Xian to beg for food.
Nanny Chen on the side said quickly: "Young ladies are not allowed to eat this late at night. It won't melt after eating it, and you will get heartburn later. Young Master, don't persuade the young lady to eat randomly!"
Ye Lizhu said with a smile: "It's getting late, so go out and rest for a while. I'll pay attention myself."
Ye Jiayou said: "Zhuzhu, can't you just eat anything?"
Ye Lizhu shook his head: "It doesn't matter, I'll try a little. My brother brought me something specially, of course I want to taste it."
She took a piece of jujube pastry. The pastry was round, half the size of a palm, and the pastry was as thin as cicada wings, layered layer by layer. Ye Lizhu carefully broke off a little and took a taste.

The taste is really good. Although the jujube paste is sweet, it is not greasy at all.
After taking two bites, Ye Lizhu took a sip of tea and said, "I went to the palace today. Did you have a lot of fun? Did you encounter anything interesting?"
Ye Jiayou was originally worried that his sister would ask him about his homework, but he didn't expect that Ye Lizhu didn't ask about this matter.
The two of them sat on the kang. Ye Jiayou remembered what Granny Chen said and only allowed Ye Lizhu to eat a small piece of the jujube paste cake before asking the maid to put it away.
Ye Jiayou said: "Today I met the King of Qin, Zhuzhu. The King of Qin is very good-looking. The prince is recognized as a handsome man. Others praise the prince for his handsome appearance. He is like a jade tree in Qionglin. Standing in front of the King of Qin, he also Their style has been suppressed. One day they will come to our house as guests, Zhuzhu, I will ask you to take a peek."
There was a hint of smile in Ye Lizhu's eyes: "How do you know they will come to the Prime Minister's Mansion someday?"
Ye Jiayou vowed: "If you believe me, you will definitely come."
He still has some discernment and knows that when King Qin comes to Beijing this time, he will not miss the opportunity to win over Ye Fu'an. Talking to him in the temple today is one of the evidences.
Ye Jiayou suddenly remembered something and took out from his sleeve the small-leaf red sandalwood beads that King Qin had rewarded him with.
Ye Jiayou said: "This is what King Qin rewarded me today. You are Zhuzhu, and this is also Zhuzhu."
Ye Lizhu raised her hand and tapped Ye Jiayou's forehead lightly: "Call sister."
Ye Jiayou said: "Zhuzhu sounds better. In front of outsiders, I call you sister."
He was afraid that Ye Lizhu would care about her, so he quickly added: "Dad calls you Zhuzhu, and I want to call you Zhuzhu too."
Ye Lizhu doesn't care about this small title, she doesn't care about red tape.
She said: "You can shout whatever you want in front of me. Don't let dad hear you. He will definitely scold you."
Ye Jiayou smiled and nodded: "I know."
Ye Lizhu felt that this string of small-leaf red sandalwood beads made people feel comfortable. The sandalwood fragrance was light and the beads were bright in color. They should be treasures that had been blessed by the master.
Ye Jiayou said: "Zhuzhu put this bracelet beside the pillow. I often hear people say that the small-leaf red sandalwood calms the mind and helps you sleep. You can sleep more soundly at night."
Ye Lizhu nodded.
After Ye Jiayou said a few words, her expression became tired, and she leaned lazily on the pillow, presumably unable to hold on any longer.
Ye Lizhu is weak and seems to get sleepy easily. Ye Jiayou said: "Zhuzhu is sleepy? Let someone come in and help you sleep. I have to go to school tomorrow, so I'll sleep outside."
Ye Lizhu said "hmm".
When Ye Jiayou went out and called his mother in, Ye Lizhu took out a handkerchief from his sleeve. As soon as he opened his mouth, the handkerchief was stained red.
She wiped it and put one hand on the table. When she touched the string of beads, she felt a little more comfortable.
Her health is really failing, and now she feels like coughing from time to time, but if she suppresses it, she will vomit blood later.
Ye Lizhu doesn't know if she can survive this year.
Here, Ye Jiayou asked the maids to take care of him. After washing, he slept outside. After lying on the bed, Ye Jiayou stared at the gold-sprinkled tent ceiling, too excited to fall asleep.
He finally met his biological sister. Before Ye Lizhu came back, Ye Jiayou imagined her to be perfect. After she came back, Ye Jiayou found that his sister had a good temperament, good looks, a gentle voice, and could warm people's hearts. She was more perfect than he imagined. .
...
□□, lights all night long. No one has lived here for a long time, but the buildings are still magnificent and there is no atmosphere of decay and desolation.
The palace in the capital was cleaned regularly, and some servants stayed to take care of it. Now that King Qin came to the capital, the prince also sent some decent people to take care of him. In addition, King Qin brought his own soldiers and horses, and the house was suddenly full. .
In the study.
Ti Xiao was sitting at the golden nanmu desk. There were a few letters and seven or eight folded books beside him. The lights were lit high on the lamp stand, illuminating the spacious study room like daylight.
There was a sudden knock on the door. Tixiao said in a cold voice without stopping the tip of the pen in his hand: "Come in."
A man in black came in quietly. He knelt down on one knee. His eyes were blocked by thick bamboos, and he could not clearly see the figure in the distance.
The man in black said: "I just visited the Prime Minister's Mansion at night. The Prime Minister's Mansion is heavily guarded, with many inner courtyards and clever design. There are soldiers stationed there. If you are not careful, you will get lost in it. Miss Ye's residence is hard to find, and I only found it. I went to the residence of Prime Minister Ye's two concubines and eavesdropped on their conversations with their servants, and then I learned Miss Ye's name."
After all, this is the Prime Minister's Mansion. If ordinary experts could get in, Ye Fu'an wouldn't be able to survive this long.
Tixiao asked: "What's her name?"
"Ye Lizhu," the subordinate said.
Husband, the pearl of a thousand gold must be in the abyss of the ninth level, under the chin of Li Long.
"Ye Lizhu." Ti Xiao put down the pen in his hand, "Ye Fu'an really treasures his daughter."
The Nine Layers of Abyss, the thousand-gold pearl under Li Long's chin, is not something that ordinary people can easily obtain. Ye Fu'an named his daughter Li Zhu because he cherished her too much.
The subordinate added: "What Prime Minister Ye said seems to be true. Miss Ye's health is indeed not good. His concubines are saying that this time Prime Minister Ye brought Miss Ye back mainly because he was afraid that she would die of illness outside." at home."
Ti Xiao's eyes suddenly turned cold.
That day he saw Ye Lizhu. She looked really sick. She was so wobbly that a gust of wind could blow her away.
However, the concubine in Ye Mansion is really bold. As a slave, she dares to talk about her master.
Tixiao suddenly said: "Do you know the name of the sword on my waist?"
Ti Xiao's black gold scimitar is named Chong Yuan, and it is the best weapon in the world. Meeting Chong Yuan is equivalent to meeting Ti Xiao. How could the people around him not know
The subordinate said: "I know that the name of the sword is Chongyuan."
Tixiao nodded and then said: "Please step back."
After the subordinate exited, he was confused. When he went out, he met his immediate superior, General Xu, and asked him a few questions.
Xu Da is a middle-aged man with a full beard and a carefree look.
After hearing this, he rolled his eyes at the subordinate: "There is an orb missing from Chongyuan, and this orb is the Pearl of Lilong. You can figure it out for yourself as to what your highness means."
The subordinate understood instantly: "But - isn't His Highness going to marry the prince?"
Xu Datou gave his subordinate a slap: "Idiot! Whoever takes a fancy to it first will belong to him!"
