The first thousand nine hundred and forty-five chapters are thoughtful
Ye Fuxun shook his head: "Actually, it's not a problem, but I'm just thinking about whether I should tell the truth to my father about my trip to Maple Grove Villa. I'm afraid he won't agree."
Speaking of the emperor, the old housekeeper's face immediately turned cold and he said angrily: "Humph, he killed the eldest lady with his own hands. What qualifications does such a heartless person have to disagree?"
From the tone of his voice, you can hear how much he hates the emperor.
"He didn't just kill the eldest lady, he didn't know how to treat Miss Sun well, and cruelly married you to Dongchen as a victim of national interests. Such a person should have died long ago. If he was a member of the Jianghu, he would have died long ago.
How many times."
Ye Fuxun was quite emotional for a moment, turned around and looked at Bai Yuxian, then smiled and said: "I will go into the palace tomorrow to tell my father that the old steward and brother Yang Yan must be tired after coming from a long distance.
I will ask the servants to clean up the two guest rooms, and you can stay at the Princess Mansion for the next few days."
The old housekeeper originally wanted to refuse, but couldn't bear Ye Fuxun's kindness in taking him in, so he agreed to stay.
What Ye Fuxun really hesitated about was not whether to tell the emperor, but whether to let Yu Xiunan know.
"Otherwise, we leave the capital secretly without telling Yu Xiunan first?"
Bai Yuxian shook his head: "No way, Yu Xiunan is a careful person, and he arranged for someone to spy on us secretly.
Even though my man is deliberately counter-monitoring, with his sensitive mind, he will notice it within a few days, and it will be even harder to explain by then."
"Then it seems that the only way is to go to Maple Grove Villa and discuss it with the old owner. Maple Grove Villa has been in business for more than a hundred years and has never had contact with people from the imperial court. I guess you don't want the treasure to flow into the imperial court, right?"
Bai Yuxian agreed with Ye Fuxun's statement, nodded and said: "Well, let's take it one step at a time."
The next day, when Ye Fuxun entered the palace to see the emperor, the emperor had just finished his morning court and was about to lie down and rest.
The emperor's condition has not improved recently. He takes medicine every day and is not in good spirits. Apart from attending the morning court every day, he basically does not care about government affairs.
The emperor became older and older, but the man who was only forty or fifty years old looked like an octogenarian.
"Father, are you feeling better today?" Ye Fuxun asked politely, with a faint smile on his face.
The emperor nodded slightly, showed a slight smile, and said: "It's better, but I'm old, useless, and sick all over, so I won't be much better."
"Father is usually busy with everything, so now taking advantage of his illness to take a good rest is a blessing in disguise." Ye Fuxun said, "Father should not be as busy as before in the future.
Although court affairs are important, the body is even more precious."
When the emperor heard her persuading him with such concern, his heart felt warm for a moment, and he couldn't help but be filled with emotion. Recently, he always dreamed of Song Yanshu. As soon as he closed his eyes, her bright and uninhibited smile appeared in front of his eyes.
"I came to the palace today just to visit my father?" The emperor knew that this daughter hated him, and she would not come to him unless there was nothing special.
Ye Fuxun smiled and said: "Of course visiting my father is the first priority, but there is also something I want to discuss with him."
The emperor raised his eyebrows when he heard this, sat up straighter, and asked, "Oh? What's the matter?"
Ye Fuxun said: "Yesterday, people from Maple Grove Villa came to the Princess Mansion to find me and said that the old owner of the village was seriously ill and wanted to see me and take me to the Villa.
I thought, after all, I am the only bloodline of my mother and concubine, so I should go see the old owner of the village, so I want to agree to them, but I wonder what my father wants?"
The moment he heard the words "Maple Grove Villa", the emperor's body trembled, he lowered his eyes and thought for a long time, and finally said:
"The old village owner wants to see you, so you should naturally go. Besides, I feel sorry for your mother and concubine, and I have no right to stop you from reuniting with your relatives over there.
If you want to go, then go and see the old owner of the village and give him my regards."
Ye Fuxun didn't expect the emperor to agree so easily, and was a little surprised. However, she didn't care about this, as long as the emperor nodded.
Ye Fuxun did not tell Yu Xiunan that the people from Fenglin Villa came to him. Instead, he told him that he had found the location of the Villa and was going to visit the owner.
Yu Xiunan originally wanted to send a few people to follow Ye Fuxun to protect her safety, but Ye Fuxun knew his thoughts and politely refused, and Yu Xiunan did not insist anymore.
Two days later, Ye Fuxun followed the old housekeeper and Yang Yan and set off south to Maple Grove Villa. Naturally, Bai Yuxian also accompanied him, and arranged for more than a dozen followers to follow him secretly along the way.
However, when they arrived near Cangxue Mountain where Maple Grove Villa is located, because there were many formations around, only the people in the villa knew how to break the formations and go up the mountain, so the Shadow Guards did not follow.
The people of Maple Grove Villa are good at setting up formations. People who don’t understand the Five Elements and Bagua will have no chance of breaking through the formation and going up the mountain. They will probably get lost in the formation and never get out. This is why no one has ever been able to find the specific location of Maple Grove Villa.
The most important reason.
Maple Grove Villa is located on Cangxue Mountain in the southeastern part of Xiguo. Cangxue Mountain is the dividing point between the borders of Dongchen and Xiguo. The east of Cangxue Mountain belongs to Dongchen and the west belongs to Xiguo.
The villa is built halfway up the mountain. After passing through layers of formations, we trekked for nearly an hour before we finally saw the villa in the mountains and forests.
It was a red building that stood out among the green trees.
The villa is very large, comparable to the eldest princess's mansion. Although it has been built for a hundred years, it still looks bright from the outside, with no trace of wind and frost visible.
The gate is made of dark iron and painted with vermilion paint, which is the same color as the walls and tiles. When you stand at the door and look up, you will feel a sense of grandeur and grandeur. Such a special building is rare in the world.
of.
Yang Yan stepped forward and knocked on the door, shouting like a child coming back from playing crazy: "Open the door quickly, we are back!"
Someone soon opened the door. They were two handsome young men. They smiled and shouted: "Brother Yang, the old housekeeper."
The old housekeeper ordered: "Go and inform the owner of the village that Miss Sun is back."
After arriving at the flower hall, the maids served scented tea and snacks, and the two sat down to rest. The old housekeeper was supported by Yang Yan and went down. Not long after, a young man in a tassel-colored robe walked in.
The first thing he saw when he walked in the door was Ye Fuxun, his eyes lit up suddenly, and the smile on his face became deeper and deeper.
"Cousin Ling, I have been looking forward to meeting you for many years. I finally look forward to meeting you."
Ye Fuxun was a little surprised, stood up and asked with a smile: "Who are you?"
The other party smiled and said: "I am Situ Yunhao. In terms of relationship, I am your distant cousin."
Ye Fuxun chuckled lightly, nodded and said, "It turns out to be my cousin. I'm sorry."
