Chapter 284 Young Emperor, there is still a long way to go
No matter what happened inside and outside the palace, this year passed peacefully.
The excitement and New Year greetings that should be celebrated are once a year, and everyone will not celebrate the New Year just because of the unhappiness of the emperor's family.
On the second day of the new year, Ye Shaoyang and Liang Mingyue came to see Ye Wanwan together. Zhuang Qin went to the palace to meet the Queen Mother. She was originally going to take Liang Mingyue with her, but Ye Shaoyang refused and directly dragged her to Ye Wanwan's place.
Ye Wanwan and Liang Mingyue couldn't be said to get along well, at least Liang Mingyue felt that she couldn't keep up with Ye Wanwan's thinking. Ye Wanwan was very satisfied with Liang Mingyue's sister-in-law, but Liang Mingyue was just...
....It's complicated...
Admiration, curiosity, slight awe, and something indescribable... In short, I just think she is amazing.
I don't dislike him at all, but I can't get close to him either. I always feel like he's not the same person.
Therefore, the two of them spoke very politely and politely, and at this stage, they were quite harmonious.
On the contrary, Ye Shaoyang, the elder brother, had nothing to say to Ye Wanwan. After arriving, he walked around like a dog looking for something. After searching around, he couldn't find anything, so he returned to Ye Wanwan.
, looking at her with suspicious and sharp eyes, interrogating silently.
Ye Wanwan pretended not to see it at all. This person was mentally ill.
The two had lunch and left. After going out, Liang Mingyue asked: "What were you looking for when you were walking around just now?"
Ye Shaoyang shook his head: "It's nothing, just take a look... After all, she just moved here not long ago, I'll check more."
Liang Mingyue obviously didn't believe it. They had been together for a long time. What kind of virtues did Ye Shaoyang have that she didn't know clearly?
Ye Shaoyang didn't dare to face Liang Mingyue's doubts. He couldn't tell her that he was looking for Ye Wanwan's adulterer, right?
Ye Wanwan hid the person deeply, but he would definitely find that person out. As for what he would do if he found out the person, he hadn't thought that far yet.
-----
On the third day of the new year, Ye Wanwan had a distinguished guest here.
I thought that no one would visit this remote place, but I didn't expect that there were quite a lot of guests.
"How are you doing, madam?"
The young man dressed in purple, elegant and handsome, with a noble air in his movements, turned out to be the young emperor in the palace.
Ye Wanwan accepted his courtesy and did not stand up. Her expression was very unwelcoming: "What are you doing here?"
Zhao Zhuo came uninvited and sat down without feeling uncomfortable at all: "Zhao is a junior, so naturally he comes to pay New Year's greetings."
The emperor came to pay her New Year's greetings, and she was quite proud.
Zhao Zhuo looked at Ye Wanwan with great concern: "How is Madam doing here?"
Ye Wanwan: "It's good."
Zhao Zhuo looked at Nuo Da's garden: "Is this the life you want?"
Ye Wanwan finally looked him in the face: "Otherwise, if you have anything to say, you can just say it without beating around the bush?"
Zhao Zhuo wanted to be vague, but after looking at her for a long time, he finally talked about what happened on the New Year's Eve: "I didn't handle this matter properly. The official documents from the imperial court have not been sent yet, but today Lord Ye Guo is here."
I went to see the Queen Mother in the palace, and I... would like to hear your opinion, Madam."
Ye Wanwan was really not surprised when she heard this. She knew the character of the Queen Mother best, and Queen Mother Feng had been suppressed all the time. She was eager to establish a good image. It was inevitable that good people would be bullied. In the end,
There was no compromise, I guess it was Zhao Zhuo's backbone.
"You are the emperor. Everything in the palace depends on your opinion and has nothing to do with me." She had already left. What did she care about these things?
Zhao Zhuo just looked at her like this. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were full of pleading, so he looked pitiful.
Ye Wanwan tugged her lips, feeling helpless, and finally said: "My aunt has been very strong in her life and loves power the most. No one can make her afraid except her son. However, the death of the late emperor was a big blow to her, and she lingered on her sick bed.
Her body is not as good as before, so it is better not to bother her with matters in the harem and let her rest in peace and recuperate."
Ye Wanwan could only tell her clearly, "Don't pay attention to her."
When she left the palace, she also mentioned it to Zhao Zhuo, and asked her to take care of her old age in the palace, which meant that she would not have the right to speak. Unfortunately, Zhao Zhuo was too young after all, and Empress Dowager Feng was not ruthless enough, so she let the Empress Dowager take it.
took the initiative.
It may be difficult to make a comeback in this situation, but stop the loss in time and don't let her interfere too much, otherwise it will be really out of control.
There is no need to speak too bluntly. Zhao Zhuo knew much better than the Empress Dowager Feng. Once he understood, he stopped talking. He left the gifts he brought and stood up to leave. Before leaving, he said: "The palace door will always be open to Madam."
.”
Ye Wanwan only listened to this gesture of kindness. She didn't want to go back to the palace, especially when there was a Queen Mother. Why go back? She had lived enough, why did she have to go there to feel uncomfortable?
Watching Zhao Zhuo leave, Ye Wanwan suddenly remembered his age. He was only fifteen years old, and the world was pressing on him. He was faced with intrigues, intrigues, and unseen bloodshed all over the dynasty.
The sword is shining, the young emperor has a long way to go.
But this is the path he chose. After becoming the emperor and holding the greatest power in the world, he must endure these things. This has nothing to do with his age.
As the child of an emperor, he actually had no choice. It was his greatest luck to be able to reach this day. Many princes died under this imperial power and were not even buried.
------
The New Year brought a new atmosphere, but the Qiwu Villa was too far away to feel much of the new atmosphere. It was snowing again in the sky, and Ye Wanwan was so cold that she didn't even want to leave the house.
Lin Zheng hurried in from outside: "Madam, someone is coming from the palace."
"Who?" The people in the palace were not surprised.
Lin Zheng: "Chief Jiang."
"From that palace?"
Lin Zheng glanced at Ye Wanwan: "It's Madam's cousin, Miss Jiang, who is now the steward of Yongshou Palace and came here on the order of the Empress Dowager."
"..." The day before yesterday, she laughed at Empress Dowager Feng for looking for trouble for herself. She was afraid that the Empress Dowager would be annoyed to death in the future, but she didn't expect that this trouble would affect her.
Also, the Empress Dowager and Jiang Feixue probably hated her very much. Now that the Empress Dowager has gained power, how can she feel better?
Now that the two of them have joined forces, do they think they can take advantage of her?
Ye Wanwan didn't say she was seeing anyone, but Jiang Feixue had already walked in with someone, dressed in the official uniform of a female official, with her head held high and her chest high, looking extremely arrogant.
He squinted at Ye Wanwan with a smile on his face and said, "Cousin, I see you're here. I haven't seen you for a while. Are you okay?"
Ye Wanwan remained motionless and glanced at the person behind her: "What are you doing here?"
Jiang Feixue walked over and sat down, holding her airs even more dignified than when she was a concubine: "Auntie, I miss you so much, and I haven't seen you come to the palace to visit me during the New Year, so you asked me to come and take a look. Everyone knows how my cousin is doing.
Damn, I thought you were too sick to get up, but you look pretty good now."
From the tone of voice, it seems quite regretful.
Ye Wanwan: "It would be better if you didn't come."
