After the imperial edict arrived at the Protector General's Mansion, Chiyang accepted it.
Eunuch Song had a good impression of Chiyang. Now with Lu Jinyan's relationship, Eunuch Song's attitude towards Chiyang became even better. He looked at Chiyang with a smile on his face: "Miss Xiao, even if this matter is like this
It’s settled.”
Chiyang nodded slightly.
At this time, Eunuch Song looked at Ye Bing again: "Miss, the emperor ordered this old slave to bring you a message. He invited you to come to the palace to get together. I wonder if you are willing to give him a favor?"
Everyone present basically knew that Ye Bing used to be good friends with the emperor, but due to various reasons, Ye Bing and the emperor had no contact for so many years. Now when they heard Eunuch Song say this, they couldn't help but look at Ye Bing.
passed.
Ye Bing's face showed no expression: "Is this a request or an order?"
The smile on Eunuch Song's face remained unchanged: "The Emperor has said that this is a friend who wants to invite his friends to have a gathering, rather than an order from a monarch to his ministers."
"I feel relieved when you say that." Ye Bing's tone was very cold, "Can I trouble Eunuch Song to go back and tell the emperor that I have been in a bad mood these past few days and don't want to go out."
Eunuch Song: "..."
This Miss Ye is really the same as before, she has not changed at all.
Ye Jun and the others were all watching with their eyes, nose and heart, so they pretended not to have seen this scene.
Eunuch Song responded with a smile: "In that case, I will go back and report to the emperor. As for the marriage between His Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Xiao, the Emperor said it all depends on what you think, Miss Ye. He mainly wants to wait until His Highness the Crown Prince comes."
The event will be held after the legs have completely recovered.”
Ye Bing nodded: "I think so too."
Eunuch Song exchanged a few more pleasantries before leaving.
Ye Sheng couldn't help but sigh softly, and murmured in a low voice: "I didn't expect it. I didn't expect that His Highness the Third Prince would be the Crown Prince, and my sister would become the future Crown Princess."
Ye Jun looked at the gifts from the emperor in the yard, smiled and said to Chiyang: "The emperor and his highness the prince must really take you to heart. These gifts for this marriage are even better than before.
It’s so much, it even exceeds the standard when the emperor married the empress.”
Gu Xiao also smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, no matter how much the emperor rewards you, when we get married, it will all be Ming Ge's dowry and will be sent back together."
No matter who the daughter married from the palace of the Protector General is, she cannot be looked down upon by others.
Ye Bing didn't care about these things, he just asked them to put them away. Anyway, just like Gu Xiao said, these things will eventually be sent back as Chiyang's dowry when Chiyang gets married.
She ordered people to put all these into the warehouse, and then returned to her yard.
She is worried about another thing now.
Chiyang followed Ye Bing back to her yard.
Looking at Ye Bing's slightly frowned eyebrows, Chiyang smiled and said, "Who made mother angry?"
Ye Bing came back to her senses. She looked at Chiyang. She seemed a little surprised that Chiyang would follow her, but she still shook her head slowly: "It didn't make me angry. I just feel upset now."
"Feeling upset?" Chiyang said with a smile, "Is it someone or something that makes mother upset? How can a mother not be upset?"
At first, Ye Bing was still thinking about this matter seriously, but soon she realized it. She reached out and poked Chiyang's forehead, her words were fierce but her tone was endearing, "Okay, now.
Have you learned to tease your mother?"
Chiyang took Ye Bing's arm and couldn't hide the smile on her face. She said softly, "Actually, my daughter can guess it. When the emperor told me that it was the person who asked for your news, I said
You knew this day would come and he would come to find you, right?"
The man in Chiyang's mouth was none other than the man who once liked Ye Bing and still likes him now.
She learned from the emperor that this man did not leave the imperial city after Ye Bing got married, but completely took root in the imperial city. He never showed his face on weekdays, but just hid in the dark and watched Ye Bing.
Never appeared, never disturbed.
It wasn't until Ye Bing and Xiao Xu divorced some time ago that this man seemed to have seen his opportunity, but he was afraid that he would come to Ye Bing's house rashly and offend Ye Bing, so he found his friend, the emperor, and asked the emperor to tell him from his daughter's mouth
Find out how Ye Bing is doing.
After confirming that Ye Bing was in good condition, he went straight to the door.
Ye Bing has really been bothered by this recently.
However, Ye Bing still did not show his emotions in front of Chiyang.
After all, no matter what, this is her daughter. Her emotional problems seem to be unjustifiable to her own daughter.
That person did come to see her recently. Although he just handed over a greeting card to the General's Mansion, she knew it was him.
She had people send her back every time, but he kept coming back during this period.
Frankly speaking, the first person she fell in love with was not Xiao Xu, but him. It was just that she was too proud and he was too inferior at the time, and the two of them missed each other for a long time.
Looking back now, it seems that everything was destined to happen.
She did not open her heart to the idea of falling in love with someone again, but it was at this time that he gained the courage.
Ye Bing didn't know whether he should lament that things in the world are confusing people or lament that he had no fate with him.
Seeing that Ye Bing didn't speak, Chiyang thought for a while and said: "Today the emperor asked Eunuch Song to say that, it must be the same person who wants to see his mother but can't? So he has no other way but to try this way.
I tried to see if I could see you, but I didn’t expect it at all and you didn’t even give me a chance.”
Ye Bing's eyebrows were light: "We are already old friends, it is better to live in memories."
Chiyang slowly shook his head: "That's not the case. Even old friends will not live in memories forever. Mother, some regrets can be redeemed with your own hands. How can you know if you don't try?
Should he just live in memories forever?"
Ye Bing looked at Chiyang. She knew that her daughter was very transparent, but she didn't think about her emotional problems. Her daughter could see it so clearly. She smiled bitterly: "So what? Mingke, I
She is a woman who has been separated from her. Even if he doesn’t mind and you don’t mind, I will also mind very much.”
This time it was Chiyang's turn to be silent.
Such a view, not to mention in this feudal era, even in the 21st century with avant-garde thinking, there will be girls who think this way and constrain themselves in this way.
Actually it's not.
A person's life is very short, the most important thing is to stay away from all the people and things that make you sad, and live happily and hard.
Chiyang lowered his eyebrows slightly: "Then... mother, just follow your own ideas."
"My daughter doesn't mind if you, mother, marry someone you like and cherish you."
Ye Bing looked at Chiyang and smiled slowly: "I know, but I don't plan to see him again."
If you miss it, you miss it. There is no need to redeem it.
Besides, her current condition is also very good. In the palace of the Protector General, no one dares to wrong her, and no one dares to look down upon her.
The daughter will soon marry the current Crown Prince and become the Crown Princess, and her status will also rise accordingly.
During this period, in addition to that person, Xiao Xu also came to the General Protector's Mansion several times. What he said was that he wanted to reconcile with her and let her return to the General Protector's Mansion.
Looking at Xiao Xu's face now, she just felt disgusted.
Especially the expression he puts on when pretending to be a loving father is even more disgusting.
Don't think that she doesn't know that he only cares about Ming Ge's position as the future crown princess.
Over the years, she has already seen clearly what kind of person Xiao Xu is, he is only profit-seeking and selfish.
…
Eunuch Song relayed what Ye Bing said to the emperor without missing a word. The emperor couldn't help laughing, with a hint of helplessness in his laughter. He looked behind the screen and said, "You heard her, but she refused."
Come."
Only then did Eunuch Song discover a slender figure behind the screen of the main hall.
The figure stood in front of the window, and the sunlight shone in from the outside, stretching his figure. The man slowly turned around, revealing his delicate face. His facial features were very delicate, but they were not
It's not an impactful one. It makes people feel comfortable at first glance, and the more they look at it, the more pleasing it is to their eyes.
This person is none other than a good friend of the Emperor and Ye Bing, named Wen Xu.
As his name suggests, not only does his face look easy to get along with, but even his voice is a little soft: "I heard it."
The emperor was like a child at this moment. While he was reviewing the memorial, he raised his eyes and glanced at Wen Xu, and said in a light voice: "Then what are you going to do? I heard that during this period, you will deliver the document to the General Protector's Mansion.
All the greeting cards I sent back were returned intact."
Wen Xu raised her eyes and looked into the distance: "Being able to recognize my greeting card means that she has not completely forgotten me, and I still have a chance."
The emperor was unconvinced about this.
"She doesn't want to see you. Even if you are full of feelings, no one can tell you."
Wen Xu lowered her eyes and said in a very soft voice: "I will find a way to let her see me."
Although his voice was very soft, there was a bit of toughness in his tone.
When the emperor heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
It's not easy.
This person has always had a tepid temperament for so many years. I didn't expect that after so many years, Ye Bing could still make ripples in this stagnant water.
As Wen Xu spoke, he walked out from behind the screen and took out a note from his sleeve: "According to the information given by Jin Yan, we did find out some information from the poison masters in the Western Region, but time has passed.
It's been a long time, and I've been able to find very little information."
Over the years, Wen Xu has taken root in the imperial city and has done nothing else but become the emperor's underground intelligence network.
"Oh?" The emperor looked at the note with a surprised look on his face and began to look at it carefully.
Wen Xu pondered for a moment before slowly speaking: "From the information I can find so far, this matter has something to do with my siblings."
When Wen Xu met the emperor Ye Bing and Lu Jinyan's mother, he was the oldest among the four, so he was the eldest brother, and the younger brother and sister he referred to were the late queen.
"Although my sister-in-law likes tea ceremony, before my sister-in-law came into contact with tea ceremony, her top skill was medical skills. She has never mentioned these skills." Wen Xu said, observing the emperor's expression, "Back then, when my sister-in-law and I were traveling in the Western Regions,
, I defeated a person when I competed with him in terms of medical skills."
"The younger sibling is very talented. The opponent was several years older than her, but she still lost to her. At that time, the younger sibling beat her up after winning, but she didn't know that the other person felt that she had no face to face him because he lost the competition.
My own tribe and family members will directly kill themselves."
"Later, this person's sister stepped into our territory to look for her younger siblings, but by that time her younger siblings had already passed away. She had no choice but to target you and Jinyan in order to take revenge."
The paper in the emperor's hand was twisted by him.
He said in a deep voice: "Can we find out the whereabouts of this person now? She made Jinyan sit in a wheelchair for so many years. When I catch her, I hope she will not be like this."
"There is no trace of her yet." Wen Xu frowned. Obviously, he also wanted to catch this person. "People in the Western Regions have many ways to save their lives. They want to lock her in and catch her in a short time."
It’s not an easy thing.”
"But don't worry, I will definitely try my best to bring the person back as quickly as possible."
He is a person who always protects his shortcomings.
Jinyan has suffered for so many years, which cannot be explained clearly in just one or two sentences.
The emperor always trusted Wen Xu, so he didn't say much after hearing this, and just let Wen Xu go ahead and do it with confidence.
Wen Xu said in a deep voice: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
The emperor waved his hand: "Go."
…
Prime Minister's Mansion.
When Xiao Ningyu learned that the emperor had granted marriage to Lu Jinyan and Xiao Mingke, her carefully maintained face became a little distorted.
She was so angry that she smashed everything she could see with her naked eyes.
Why!
Why can Xiao Mingke have such luck!
She has obviously calculated everything in this life. She is the one who falls in love with His Highness the Crown Prince, and she is the one who will become the future Crown Prince's concubine!
Why!
Why is Xiao Mingke still able to follow the same path as in his previous life!
Why!
The third prince is obviously a cripple, how could she ascend to the throne?
In his previous life, the third prince's legs were not well at all!
What went wrong?!
Where is it?
Xiao Ningyu clenched her hands fiercely, and her delicate and beautiful face was severely distorted.
Now that the prince has been demoted to a commoner, she has no use value in his father's eyes, and it is impossible for him to have her in his eyes.
Xiao Ningyu bit her lower lip until it turned pale.
