Chapter 88: Meet at the Quenching Jade Pavilion

"What letter?"

Hua Ying bulged her cheeks and said angrily: "It's the letter Ying'er wrote to Brother Ye. Two months ago, I asked Sister Yao to send it to Brother Ye. Brother Ye is pretending to be stupid!"

Ye Wan glanced at Yao Qingshu and said, "Sister Yao really sent me a letter?" Although the war in the northern border was in chaos, there was still peace in Fengzhou. There was no reason why Yao Qingshu would not receive the letter she sent to her.

"Yes," Yao Qingshu knew that Ye Wan had not received the knot he tied, but it was no big deal. She smiled and said, "The words Ying'er wrote were praised by the teacher recently, so she specifically yelled to write to you. I have nothing to do, so I bothered you with her."

Ye Wan really didn't know about this, and apologized: "There are so many people on the border, maybe they are mixed in official documents, and they waste your thoughts. I'm really sorry."

"What is Ah Wan saying? Can we still be so polite?" Yao Qingshu lit up her head, "How is it? My father said yesterday that he saw you in the court. You looked energetic. You didn't get any injuries this time, right? Tell me and Ying'er, what is the war?" What she knew was just some of the war reports that Yao Shangshu heard in the court. Shangshu Yao was neither an important member nor a member of the Ministry of War. The detailed situation was not clear at all, so he could only talk about it with Yao Qingshu.

When Hua Ying heard this, she immediately threw the idea of ​​"Brother Ye didn't receive my letter" behind her head. Her big watery eyes bulged and looked at Ye Wan with excitement, "Yes, Brother Ye, tell us, how did you defeat the Northern Han barbarians? Is the situation trembling and dangerous?"

"Young master, you guys talk, Mu Niang go and prepare some refreshments for you." Mu Niang stood up considerately with a crutch.

Ye Wan said: "You can just sit there, it's no big deal. If you have anything to call Muzi to do."

"Mu Niang can't stay idle, Mu Zi is clumsy, what can I do?" Mu Niang smiled.

Ye Wan was unable to do so, nodded, and looked helplessly at the two daughters with curiosity on their faces, and briefly said the matter of rescuing General Xie and transporting grain in Yingjian Gorge. Even though she did not add any more fuel to the fire, the two of them could hear the danger and thrilling.

Hua Ying didn't know that Ye Wan was a girl, and she thought that Brother Ye was a heroic boy. The admiration in her eyes kept popping up like a spring. Especially when she heard Ye Wan kidnapped Na Muya and Zhen Yu and others to burn the food and grass of the Northern Han army, she held her breath and said she was satisfied.

Yao Qingshu looked at Ye Wan with a graceful expression and couldn't help but be envious. Hua Ying didn't know her identity, but Yao Qingshu knew it. Whether it was his mind, skill or behavior, let alone a woman, even a man could match him in the world today? Not to mention that such a stunning and stunning character was actually a woman. When Ye Wan's identity was revealed to the world, I don't know what kind of uproar would cause.

"Fortunately, Brother Ye was not injured, what about the others? Is the others okay?" Hua Ying asked hurriedly after hearing what Ye Wan had gained.

"The war is ruthless, and casualties are inevitable. Fortunately, the number of serious injuries and casualties in the Xie family army this time was less than 10,000, which is a great blessing in disgrace. Compared with the 200,000 casualties in the Northern Han Dynasty, Da Yan can be said to have gained a lot." Ye Wan silently thought of the 200,000 Wuzhou defenders who were killed and crippled by Chu Hui...that should not be counted as the number of casualties in the war, right?

Hua Ying rolled her eyes and asked again: "Then...whether of those people around Brother Ye?"

Ye Wan was stunned and said, "Are you talking about Zhen Yu and Duan Hongyang?"

"Well..." Hua Ying pouted, her expression becoming a little twisted. "Well, Zhen Yu, is he okay?"

Ye Wan's expression suddenly became subtle. She knew that the ancients were precocious... Women could talk about marriage before they were married, not to mention the childhood sweethearts of their cousins. But if they were the little girl beside her with a bag of hair, she would feel a little weird. In terms of appearance, just looking at Hua Wujian's evil appearance, you can know that Hua Ying will never be inferior to any lady in Yanjing in the future. Now she is only ten years old and has begun to take the prototype of a beauty, and it looks so sweet that she looks so sweet that she can't stand in her heart.

Yao Qingshu and Ye Wan on the side looked at each other and both understood what each other was thinking.

She coughed lightly, and decided to pretend that Hua Ying had no intention of showing her, and said seriously: "Zhen Yu and the others are fine. They were slightly injured, but nothing serious."

Hua Ying said "Oh" long, as if she was trying to explain something to her actions, and said, "Brother Ye, don't get me wrong. Ying'er just thought that those brothers who followed Brother Ye must be Brother Ye's confidant. Then if something happened to them, Brother Ye would definitely be very sad!" Her serious look seemed to be just worried about Ye Wan's mood.

Ye Wan nodded with a smile: "Ying'er is right. They are all good brothers of Brother Ye. If they have something to do, Brother Ye will definitely be sad. So Brother Ye will never let them get into trouble."

The three of them made a few jokes again, and then they pulled the topic back to the upcoming ceremony of Emperor Dayan and the ceremony of the title of concubines.

Ye Wan said: "By the way, Sister Yao, I have something to ask you. I don't know how many ladies in Yanjing are. Do you know if you know a lady named Rong?"

"Are you talking about the daughter of the Rong Taifu family who got married a few days ago? If it were that person, I would know a little bit." Yao Qingshu thought about it and replied. Seeing Ye Wan's affirmative expression, she said, "Miss Rong and I said a few words. I am not good at getting along with people by nature. In the past, few people are willing to pay attention to me when attending banquets. But Miss Rong is willing to talk to me."

"I have never seen that Miss Rong before." Ye Wan thought for a while and sure that he had never seen the Rong family at the Xia Hechang or at the palace banquet. He asked, "I will not hide it from Qingshu. The person who married Miss Rong a few days ago was the eldest brother of my Yi family."

Yao Qingshu was slightly surprised and covered her lips and smiled, "So coincidental? Then she is your sister-in-law now? That Miss Rong... said that she is also a wonderful person. Maybe she doesn't like some famous young ladies in Yanjing, and she rarely attends various banquets. Unlike me, I am not good at socializing with those people. She is different. Her grandmother was a female official in the palace who followed the queen when she was Emperor Gaozu. She was rigorous in etiquette. Miss Rong was also a well-educated person since she was a child and good at dancing. Maybe she disdains such occasions of false compliment."

After hearing Yao Qingshu's meaning inside and outside, he admired the Rong family quite well. Ye Wan also felt relieved when he knew Yao Qingshu's character. He knew that she was a smart person when he came into contact with Rong last night. If he had no bad intentions, it would be a good thing in Ye Ji's mansion and could also be well rectified. She said: "Do Qingshu know why she got married in such a hurry?"

Yao Qingshu held the cup's hand and paused slightly, frowned and asked, "A Wan has any doubts?"

"That's not, it's just curiosity. My adoptive father and his family moved to Beijing for less than half a year, and they are merchants. Logically speaking, if it's a good match, it's unlikely that everyone in Yanjing like this is the one who looks at it." Ye Wan shook his head.

From beginning to end, Hua Ying looked at the two of them with big eyes and asked curiously: "Are you talking about Miss Rong Zi Qirong from the scholarly family? Ying'er knows!"

Ye Wan and Yao Qingshu looked at her together. Seeing Hua Ying shaking her head and smugly, she refused to ask with a smile: "What do Ying'er know?"

"Ying'er has some news," Hua Ying blinked and saw both of them looking at him in a supporting role, saying, "There were actually many people who got married and held weddings a few days ago, not only the Rong family. The Rong family was just a very famous one. Ying'er heard that it was Zeng Hou who secretly wanted to make Miss Rong the concubine, but Rong's granddaughter was unwilling to do so, so she hurriedly married her granddaughter."

That being said, Grand Tutor Rong was obviously a person who cared about his granddaughter, so how could he marry his granddaughter in such a hurry? You know, the ancients' rituals of marriage were very complicated, and various etiquettes were added together, and the woman had to deliberately push Qiao and stop her. The wedding period would often last for a long year or even two years. It is very rare for Rong to get married in a hurry after knowing each other for a few months.

Yao Qingshu shook his head and said helplessly: "Some of what I heard was because Miss Rong refused to enter the palace to be a concubine, and some of the reason was because Miss Rong's husband... he was Awan's elder brother, who seemed to be an editor of the Hanlin Academy. Under the position of the disciples of Rong's former disciples, Rong's actions also meant to cherish talent."

It is better to marry a disciple who is a good disciple than to send his granddaughter to the palace or find a good match to marry him casually. Taifu Rong is also very casual.

Another point, if Ye Wan guessed correctly, the gentle editor of the Hanlin Academy who gave Ye Ji and Ye Li the name of Ye Ji and Ye Li was most likely the editor of the gentle Hanlin Academy who said last night.

He has the same roots and origins as his grandson-in-law, and has such a relationship with his in-laws. Destiny is really amazing.

"When it comes to becoming a concubine in the palace, there are many women who are suitable for marriage in Yanjing, and there are princesses and princesses from various countries who come to Beijing to marry. I am afraid that there will be another battle in the palace by then." Yao Qingshu pursed his lips and shook his head. The condition for choosing a concubine this time is to be a young woman who has been in her 29th year of birth. If she hadn't happened to have just passed her birthday and was nineteen years old, she would have been among the people who chose the concubine.

Ye Wan knew that she was glad that she was grateful for, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister Yao is destined to marry a man she likes, and God is also wishing you." Yao Qingshu's arrogant personality doesn't even look down on Xiao Feng's identity and disdain to be his princess. How could he like a concubine next to Emperor Ruijia? She said, "No matter how turbulent the palace is, it has nothing to do with you and me, so there is a headache for someone." How could a person like Zeng Lingxing tolerate other women riding on her head?

"What Ah Wan said is that no matter how hard they toss and straight, it doesn't matter to us. It's just sitting and watching the show." Yao Qingshu pursed his lips and smiled gently. When he heard what Ye Wan said, "the destined man of love" he couldn't help but feel a little bitter in his heart. He didn't know where the destined man of love was?

Yao Qingshu shook his head silently, put aside his random thoughts and asked: "In a few days, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be there. There will be no curfew in the whole city, and there will be a night market lantern festival on the street. Ah Wan has never attended a lantern festival in Yanjing. Should I go to the night market together after dinner? I will take Ah Wan to experience the excitement of Yanjing."

Hua Ying hurriedly said, "I want to go too, I want to go too!"

Ye Wan was about to answer, but suddenly she thought of those dark and bottomless eyes. Mid-Autumn Festival... If she threw down the great devil alone and ran to the streets of Yanjing with Yao Qingshu and Hua Ying to watch the moon and lanterns, I'm afraid she would die, right? And on the Mid-Autumn Festival, the palace would definitely not let all officials let them enjoy the moon and drink with their families at home.

She hesitated for a moment, shook her head and said, "No, there will be a palace banquet in Mid-Autumn Festival. I don't know when the palace banquet will be over. You still don't have to worry about me." She avoided Yao Qingshu's teasing eyes slightly embarrassedly, and coughed calmly, "You will have fun then, there are many people in the night market, so you must pay attention to safety."
