Zhao Hao got his sister's promise and went out happily, and Zhao Yan also returned to her residence.
None of them noticed that their actions had already been noticed by others.
Not long after, a servant sent a letter. When Zhao Yan looked at the envelope, she knew who had sent it, and an ambiguous smile appeared on her face. When she opened it, she saw a line of words written on it:
At three o'clock tonight, Chunfeng Inn, see you there or not.
A blush appeared on Zhao Yan's face, she bit her lower lip and said softly: Brother Xuan, you are so bad!
After saying that, she got up to take a shower, change clothes, and put on exquisite makeup...
A figure came to Tingyuxuan as if entering a deserted place, and informed Han Xing of a piece of news. Han Xing then relayed it to Ye Qingran.
"Oh? I didn't expect that Dongfang Xuan and Zhao Yan slept together and became addicted to it?" Ye Qingran raised her eyebrows, feeling quite surprised.
She just arranged for someone to collect evidence that Zhao Hao had committed suicide, but she accidentally discovered Zhao Yan's secret.
"Tell me, if Ye Sisi knew about this, wouldn't it be very exciting?"
Ye Qingran suddenly had a plan in mind.
Hanxing Lengyue looked at each other and smiled.
Given how much Ye Sisi treasures Dongfang Xuan, if she knew that Zhao Yan was secretly communicating with Dongfang Xuan, she would probably kill Zhao Yan to vent her anger in anger, right?
…
Imperial Prefecture
"Your Majesty, Queen Gu issued an edict to marry Miss Ye to Zhou Hai, the Minister of Rites."
Fu San reported the information he had collected while observing His Majesty's face.
However, what disappointed him was that he did not see the slightest change in expression on His Majesty's face.
After waiting for a long time, there was no response from His Majesty. Fu San even wondered if he hadn't heard.
"Your Majesty, why didn't you react at all?"
The Imperial Master glanced at him and said disapprovingly: "Do you think Queen Gu's decree will be useful to Ye Qingran?"
The Imperial Master knows very well that this woman is not as simple as she seems on the surface. Putting aside everything else, the fact that she killed two Xuanzongs in one instant in the Jiufu Forest that night can explain a lot of things.
However, he didn't intend to investigate anything. After all, he liked this woman and he should give her the minimum respect.
"But, Your Majesty, no matter how powerful Miss Ye is, she is only the daughter of the Prime Minister of Donglin Kingdom. Even with the shield of General Dingyuan, her relationship with the Donglin royal family is a monarch-minister relationship. As the saying goes, if the monarch wants his subjects to die,
I have to die. If Miss Ye dares to resist the order, I'm afraid..."
Fu Hanxiu raised the corners of his lips and smiled confidently. He looked unique and elegant.
"Don't worry, I will certainly not let my woman be wronged!"
Fu San opened his mouth, feeling that Your Majesty was so domineering. But, does Miss Ye know that you called her that behind your back?
"Then what are you going to do?"
The Imperial Master smiled mysteriously and did not directly answer Fu San's question.
"Queen Gu's edict came just in time. This is undoubtedly a Hongmen Banquet. When the time comes, I will appear at the banquet as a hero to save the beauty. Do you think that woman Ye Qingran will be attracted to me?
"
Fu San was stunned.
"Your Majesty, you are so scheming!"
Then, a look from Fu Hanxiu stopped his exaggerated expression.
"Hey, Your Majesty, I think it's okay! When the time comes, Miss Ye will be greatly moved when she sees you appear, just like a god descending to earth, and she might even agree to you!"
Promise yourself?
The National Master commented on this word that made him a little excited. Although he was looking forward to it, he was very sure that that cold woman would not be able to do this!
…
The Queen's banquet held at the Prince's Mansion was extremely grand, and all the distinguished people invited from the famous families in Xiliang City were invited.
When the lanterns first came on, the already grand Prince's Mansion became even more luxurious.
In the huge banquet hall, tables of fine wine and delicacies looked mouth-watering.
The sound of strings, strings and bamboos is endless, and the graceful beauties are dancing on the dance floor.
At the beginning of Youshi, the guests who came to attend the banquet had already arrived one after another. At the moment of Youshi, the garden outside the banquet hall was full of people, and almost everyone who came to attend the dinner had arrived.
Most of the guests invited today are young people with high status in Xiliang City. Only the Ye family and Zhou Hai are here. The purpose of this banquet seems to be very obvious.
We are all smart people and understand each other tacitly.
As the protagonist of today's dinner, Ye Qingran's arrival attracted much attention. So much so that when she appeared at the prince's residence, it caused a commotion.
Tonight, Ye Qingran was still dressed simply, in a plain white dress, without any extraneous details, except for two streamers hanging around her waist, swaying gently as she walked.
Her hair was tied up in a simple bun with a green jade hairpin.
Stunning face, no makeup, no makeup, but still breathtakingly beautiful.
She took her two maids to fight into the crowd. The banquet, which was surrounded by rich clothes and jewels, was like a stream of pure water, isolated from the world, and a world of its own.
…
There are many people who have seen Ye Qingran with their own eyes, but there are also many people present who have not yet seen with their own eyes the eldest lady of the Ye family who is known as the 'most beautiful woman in Xiliang City'.
For a moment, I couldn't help but feel dazed.
Seeing this, Ye Huanhuan could not help but feel a little jealous. However, she bit her silver teeth and suppressed the jealousy. She stepped forward and said softly: "Sister, you are here. Queen.
The empress said that today’s banquet is specially held for you and Mr. Zhou. Sister, congratulations to you!"
Ye Huanhuan stood in front of Ye Qingran with a gentle smile on her face. After saying something, her eyes were red and she was about to cry. In the eyes of others, she looked like a scene of deep sisterly love.
Everyone knew the purpose of today's dinner, but when they thought that the person Ye Qingran was going to marry was Zhou Hai, many people smiled meaningfully.
"Ye Qingran, your fiancé is Mr. Zhou! It is said that Mr. Zhou is brave and powerful, and he loves his wife as much as she loves him. You will definitely be very happy when you marry him. Congratulations!"
A sound that sounded like a smile but not a smile came loudly, and everyone couldn't help but hold back their laughter. Many people even couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.
Who is this person? He is telling lies with his eyes open?
Who among the people present does not know what Zhou Hai, the Minister of Rites, is like? Needless to say, he is short and ugly in appearance and stature. His talent is average, even poor, and he is still a mysterious master in his thirties. As for doting on his wife,
Life, that is even more nonsense. Zhou Hai had remarried several times over the years, and his first wives died one after another, but the concubines in the backyard were more beautiful than the last.
How can such a man deserve the praise of being "extraordinary in martial arts, strong in strength, and doting on his wife as much as she loves her"?
Everyone followed the voice and saw that the speaker was Mu Qingrou, the eldest daughter of the Mu family who was the deacon of Wuji Palace in Donglin Kingdom, and they understood in their hearts.
Mu Qingrou and Ye Qingran had an affair. It was no longer a matter of a day or two. The entire Xiliang City knew about it.
Mu Qingrou wore a veil, with a vicious smile in her eyes.
"That's right, at least there is someone who can marry me. Miss Mu has to wear a veil every time she goes out. I'm afraid she won't be able to get married even if she wants to."
Ye Qingran said lightly.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone's attention shifted to Mu Qingrou.
