Listening to Ye Xingtong's unquestionable words and her pure and clear eyes, Concubine Xian was extremely satisfied: "It's good that you are self-aware. I like smart women the most, especially ones like you. It's a pity that You and Prince Xuan are destined to have no connection, if you had..."
Concubine Xian held her forehead and let out a long sigh. She didn't say what she was talking about at that time, but Ye Xingtong understood it clearly.
Since Concubine Xian wanted to sing, how could she have the nerve to interrupt her.
Anyway, what she should say has been said, and what should be declared has been declared.
Now she just wants to leave this oppressive place.
Concubine Xian said a few more words of appreciation for Ye Xingtong and a few other thoughtful words. She hid a yawn with her hand and said a little tiredly: "Okay, I'm tired, so I can't keep you longer. ”
This was what Ye Xingtong was waiting for.
I felt relieved.
She was very tired from standing. Concubine Xian had been talking so much for half an hour. As expected of a woman in the palace, she felt a little sore in her back.
"Xingtong excuses himself."
Ye Xingtong said, holding Wu Ye's hand and walking out quickly.
After leaving the palace gate, Wu Ye broke away from Ye Xingtong's hand without shame, and said in a calm voice with a hint of stiffness: "Don't get so close to me."
Ye Xingtong took back his hand nonchalantly.
They had become so familiar and had shared the joys and sorrows for a while, and she had regarded him as her brother and her relative.
The pull just now was just a conditioned reflex. She only wanted to leave that oppressive place as soon as possible. She had no consciousness at all. She didn't feel it until Wu Ye spoke.
It seemed like she had pulled someone with her a long time ago.
If she doesn't pull it, she won't pull it. It's not like she has nothing to lose.
Returning to the main hall where she stayed to entertain guests, Bu Zengxiang found Jingchen, dressed in black and with a serious face, waiting there.
Seeing Ye Xingtong return, Jingchen bowed and said, "Miss Ye, the prince asked me to wait here for the girl again and escort her out of the palace."
Ye Xingtong nodded: "Okay, I'll get my baggage first."
Ye Xingtong turned around and walked into the hall, took out the baggage she had packed in advance, carried it behind her back, and said to Jing Chen and Wu Ye who were waiting for her, "Okay, let's go!"
Jing Chen guided us along the way, and no one dared to stop us. It was so smooth. After twists and turns, we finally arrived at the entrance of the palace.
When Ye Xingtong saw the houses and people outside, he suddenly felt extremely comfortable.
In the palace, I always felt as if I was trapped in a cage. When I came out, I felt like a bird that had been let fly. It finally regained its freedom and could fly freely under the blue sky.
Before she even stepped out of the palace gate, there was a rustling sound inside the palace, and Ye Xingtong's sixth sense told her that something was up.
Unexpectedly, a row of well-trained palace guards walked up in neat steps, holding weapons in their hands, which seemed to be menacing and robbing homes.
Ye Xingtong unconsciously pulled up Wu Ye's sleeve again and walked out quickly, wanting to stay away from these disputes.
The guard over there has already spoken loudly: "Come here, the imperial concubine has given orders. The woman boldly stole the precious things of the imperial concubine. Arrest that woman quickly and bring her to justice."
Jingchen stepped forward to block the guards who were about to rush forward. He frowned and said, "Miss Ye is a distinguished guest of His Royal Highness Prince Xuan. She will never do such sloppy things. Please make your decision again."
The prince asked him to escort Miss Ye away, and Miss Ye must not let anything happen in his hands.
The leading guard smiled coldly, pushed Jingchen away, and let the others pass: "Jingchen, I respect you as someone close to the prince to give you face, but this is the decision made by the imperial concubine herself, and we cannot disobey it."
As he spoke, he flew over and caught up with the person in front.
Ye Xingtong glanced at the dozens of guards who were besieging him, and said in a calm tone with a half-smile: "It seems that you won't give up today. I thought the imperial concubine was an upright and honorable gentleman, but after seeing it today , it’s nothing more than that, I just want to ask, what did I steal?”
The leading guard shouted loudly: "You dare to talk to me about my Majesty, you are too presumptuous. Now it's my Majesty who will make the decision. You'd better just surrender and follow me, otherwise don't blame me for being rough with you."
Ye Xingtong raised his eyebrows, spread his hands, and looked helpless: "You guys are really strong. Have you ever given me a chance to defend myself? No matter what kind of master teaches what kind of slave, I Just go with you."
Although the leader of the guards was so angry at Ye Xingtong's words that he just wanted to vomit blood, she was willing to go back and he couldn't get angry.
The empress had warned him in advance that the girl's martial arts skills were unfathomable and he should not fight her unless absolutely necessary.
If the empress hadn't told her not to use force, he would have really wanted to have a fight with this angry little girl to see how powerful she was, so as to frustrate her arrogant spirit.
Suddenly feeling his arms sinking, Ye Xingtong looked at Wu Ye with confusion, who was about to get angry, and subconsciously shuddered.
He smiled softly, and said in a coquettish and coquettish tone: "Anyway, we have been waiting for more than ten days, and we don't care about this moment, so we can just wait a little longer."
She had a hunch that things would not be simple. Just one thing made her very confused. The imperial concubine was not Jun Yifan's mother, so why did she treat him silently
She also thinks about his future and his future friends.
In fact, to be honest, once her escape from marriage was made public, her reputation would be completely ruined.
Since ancient times, only men have divorced women, and women have never escaped from marriage on the day of marriage.
After her escape from marriage was made public, if she and Jun Yifan were together, firstly, her reputation would be ruined and she would be charged with being a licentious woman for the rest of her life, but it would also affect Jun Yifan's future, and he might be in trouble in the future. The prince's career was delayed.
Therefore, the imperial concubine's actions seemed to have no rules and some inexplicable meanings, but the result was still for Jun Yifan's sake, not because she said she was worried about the emperor, and she understood the righteousness.
One thing that is very important for her to go back is that the imperial concubine knows that she has escaped from marriage. If she announces her story to the world...
Her father must have known her whereabouts, and he might not even be able to go to Yangzhou, and her maternal grandfather, who her mother said was so loving, wouldn't be able to see her either.
Wu Ye was stunned for a moment. This was the first time Ye Xingtong spoke to him in such a flattering and coquettish tone.
Ye Xingtong's eyes turned slightly red at the base of his ears, and he said in a muffled voice: "Okay, then just wait a little longer."
The leader of the guards couldn't stand it anymore. What was going on with the two people looking at each other affectionately in front of him, acting out their love
A cough interrupted the two of them: "Girl, you'd better go quickly. If she delays again, don't blame us brothers for using force."
Forced to return to the imperial concubine's palace again, as expected, he saw Emperor Wu sitting on the throne wearing a bright yellow robe.
Emperor Wu didn't look very old, and his face was majestic, calm and majestic, but the almost visible trace of whiteness on his face still increased or decreased his imperial power.
Next to Emperor Wu sat the concubine Xian, who was covering her sleeves and choking.
Knowing that Wu Ye would not kneel to anyone, Ye Xingtong left him outside in order not to cause any trouble or unnecessary trouble.
The imperial concubine had most likely told Emperor Wu of her identity, and she no longer had to hide it. She bowed to the ground and saluted, "Ye Xingtong, the eldest princess of Qingyang in the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, has met the emperor. May the emperor live a long and prosperous life!"
A flash of surprise flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he waved his hand: "Princess Qingyang is still alive. It is my great honor for Princess Qingyang to come and give me this gift."
He glanced at the pear-shaped noble concubine with some pity, and hesitantly said: "I heard that you took away the concubine's beloved things. I wonder if there is such a thing?"
Although Southern Xinjiang is not as big as Li State, nor as rich in products and talents as Li State, it is still a country that should not be underestimated.
As the most noble eldest princess, he also felt that there was no need for her to steal an object that was of little use to her.
Ye Xingtong stood up and stood aside, shaking his head and said: "No, Xingtong asked himself that he has never stolen anything. Xingtong came here this time because he accepted the appointment of His Highness Prince Xuan as a friend. It was not just a simple matter. For what purpose and identity, it was Xingtong’s mistake that he did not visit the imperial concubine and the emperor during this period, and Xingtong cannot apologize here.”
What a frame-up!
Concubine Xian was afraid that she would not let her go. Maybe she had already written a letter to tell her father about her.
There was a thump in my heart, I was afraid something was wrong.
Emperor Wu laughed loudly: "Since we are friends, there is no mistake, and there is no need to visit me. It is not my fault that I summoned you innocently this time."
"I don't dare. Your Majesty is true to his word. He keeps his promise and distinguishes right from wrong. I believe he will be able to give Xingtong a correct decision." Ye Xingtong lowered his head and said lightly.
At this time, the imperial concubine also stopped sobbing softly, and looked at Emperor Wu with tearful eyes. Her voice was as soft as water, and it was really pleasant to hear: "Your Majesty, I am not sure whether she stole it. Why don't we let someone search her body to find out?" .”
Although Emperor Wu cared deeply for his beloved concubine and was unwilling to disappoint her, searching a woman's body... To tell the truth, what he did as an emperor was too unkind.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be embarrassed. Since the imperial concubine suspects Xing Tong, Xing Tong will take out everything on her body and let the Emperor take a look," she said.
Ye Xingtong first took off the baggage on his back, untied it, and scattered all the contents on the ground.
But he didn't see the proud calculation flashing in the eyes of the weak imperial concubine.
Before those sets of dresses had even landed, a dazzling light suddenly flashed out, causing her to squint her eyes for a while.
A crisp voice sounded in my ears, and a burst of beautiful singing sounded.
When I opened my eyes wide and saw a huge shining night pearl with a ball in the palm of my hand on the ground, I was surprised and glanced at the beautiful young concubine next to the emperor who lowered his head and covered his sleeves with pear flowers in the rain. I felt pity for the beautiful young concubine.
This is…
