When the two returned to the palace, it was already night, it was very dark, not a single star could be seen, and it would probably rain at night.
A gust of wind blew, full of coolness.
Hua Yanxi glanced at Ye Yibai's clothes: "Autumn is coming soon. Don't wear summer clothes tomorrow. Autumn clothes have been prepared for you. Go back and see if you like it. If you don't like it, you can ask her to wear it again.
Make it the style you like."
"Yanyan made me new clothes again? I still have a lot of summer clothes that I haven't had time to wear yet." Ye Yibai was particularly embarrassed at this moment.
I feel angry when I think of the alarmist things said by those classmates, but now I am full of pride.
Can they find a wife like him?
That must be impossible.
"It doesn't matter. If you like it, you can wear it next year. If you don't like it, just donate it and give it away." Hua Yanxi has always been willing to give up Ye Yibai.
"I like whatever Yanyan gives me. If I don't give it to others, I'll be happy to see it stuffed in a cupboard."
"what ever."
The two walked inside while talking. As soon as they entered the courtyard, a cool voice suddenly sounded from the darkness: "Are you finally willing to come back?"
The two of them followed the sound and saw Ye Juechen leaning against the pillar, his eyes looking at them faintly, flashing with cold light.
"Why are you here?" Ye Yibai said with disgust.
Ye Juechen became even more angry when he heard this: "Why am I here? Ask your wife!"
"How do I know?" Hua Yanxi frowned: "Is it possible that you are here to make money again? I am not in the mood to make money from you today. I will wait for another day. You can leave now."
"How about making money for a living? I'm not as shameless as you. I'm here to announce the decree! I've been waiting for you for two whole hours. I've never seen anyone make the person announcing the decree wait that long. You guys are so arrogant!"
Ye Juechen became more and more angry as he talked.
It stands to reason that announcing an edict is always a bad thing. In the past, he had not announced edicts for his father. No matter whether it was a reward or a punishment, he would always make the whole family kneel down and listen to the edicts honestly.
They are both good together.
It didn't matter that the two masters were not at home, and they were ordered to look for their own masters. It didn't matter that one or two of them didn't go looking for them, but they still dared to leave them alone.
Sure enough, there are just as many slaves as there are masters. This has changed in the past. This situation never happened when he took care of the Fifth Prince's Mansion!
"Isn't it a declaration? Where is the imperial edict?" Ye Yibai didn't care what he complained about and just stretched out his hand.
"I'm not here. My father-in-law is here to announce the decree. I'm accompanying him." Ye Juechen said angrily.
"Then what are you talking nonsense to us and delaying the reading of the imperial edict? Do you bear the blame?" Hua Yanxi rolled her eyes at him.
Ye Juechen watched the two people enter the hall, staring at them closely, extremely angry.
In the hall, Eunuch Wan was sitting on a chair, followed by two young father-in-laws. When he saw the fifth prince and his wife coming in, he didn't say much. He just said: "Now that we have arrived, we will start to read out the imperial edict."
After saying that, he motioned for the two of them to kneel down, while he took the imperial edict from his sleeve.
However, as soon as he took out the imperial edict, a hand suddenly appeared and snatched the edict directly from his hand.
"Bring it to you."
Eunuch Wan was stunned for a moment and did not react.
Looking at Ye Yibai, he opened his mouth but didn't dare to say anything.
It doesn't matter if others don't know, he already knows that this is the emperor's treasure. How dare he reprimand someone for taking away the imperial edict? Of course he doesn't. He sits down silently and continues to drink tea.
After Ye Yibai grabbed it, he retreated to Hua Yanxi's side, unfolded the imperial edict, skipped a long paragraph of nonsense, and read the last few sentences directly.
The general idea is that the control of the salt merchant is handed over to Hua Yanxi, and the seventh prince Ye Juechen is appointed to coordinate management and act as a supervisor.
Ye Juechen was right behind the two of them. Naturally, he saw Ye Yibai's sexy moves and felt it was an eyesore.
Neither one nor the other follows the rules.
"Father orally, five million taels of silver are to be handed over to me and Eunuch Wan immediately to take back to the palace. Even one tael less will not do. If we do not respect the Holy Will, we will take back control." After saying that, Ye Juechen felt much more comfortable.
He sat down and said leisurely: "Now, go raise money, we will wait here."
Come back so late, it depends on how you make it work, you deserve it.
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly, a large pile of things was stuffed into my arms.
"You can go." Hua Yanxi said.
Ye Juechen picked up the large stack of things that were as thick as scratch paper, and his face was filled with surprise when he saw it clearly.
One hundred thousand taels of silver notes, a total of fifty pieces, a thick stack.
One hundred thousand taels of silver notes were newly issued last year. Normally no one would carry such a large amount of bank notes with them. Even if they did, there would only be a few. Who would have such a large amount of money on their person? It would be terrible to lose it.
Heartbroken.
Ye Juechen counted them one by one. After counting, he looked at Hua Yanxi with a complicated face: "You are so rich, why are you still so picky?"
You can easily take out five million taels of silver notes, but you still have the nerve to cheat him out of his money?
"Does it have something to do with you? Where is the seal?"
Ye Juechen angrily handed the seal of control from his body to Hua Yanxi, and said coldly: "Familiarize yourself with the account books with me in three days."
When he said this, Ye Juechen had no good face at all, and he had an unhappy expression as if someone owed him money.
After saying that, he turned back to see Eunuch Wan, only to see Eunuch Wan winking at him.
Only then did Ye Juechen remember that when he arrived, his father had asked him to quietly get the invitation letter to Ye Yibai's birthday party.
Ye Juechen felt a mouthful of blood well up in his throat, and his face turned black and blue.
"Are you done? You can leave now." Seeing that they weren't leaving yet, Ye Yibai started to chase them away.
If this was normal, Ye Juechen would have said firmly, "Let's just leave. You can't even ask me to stay."
But now, he stood there for a while, took a deep breath, then took two steps back and sat down again.
Ye Yibai: "?"
Hua Yanxi: "?"
The two of them said nothing, only looked at him with their eyes, indicating: Is something wrong?
Ye Juechen coughed twice: "How did the birthday party go?"
"Good."
"Well, have you drawn up the invitation list?" Ye Juechen asked in an unnecessary tone.
Hua Yanxi was surprised: "Isn't the invitation already delivered to your house? You didn't receive it?"
"Ahem, I got it, I just wanted to ask."
"oh."
Ye Juechen gritted his teeth: "Have you invited everyone who should be invited? No one is left behind, right?"
Hua Yanxi looked at Ye Yibai: "I've already invited you here, Xiaobai, do you have anyone else you want to invite?"
Ye Yibai nodded.
Hua Yanxi looked at Ye Juechen: "Please finish."
"Are you sure? There's no such thing as the one you didn't invite because you didn't think you would come. The one whose status is very valuable?" Ye Juechen hinted crazily.
After hearing this, Hua Yanxi touched her chin and began to think seriously.
"When you say that, it seems like there is such a person." Hua Yanxi suddenly realized.
Ye Juechen breathed a sigh of relief: "That's it. It's such an important occasion, how can it be done without a big shot to support the occasion?"
