Chapter 215 I am determined to marry! The teacher returns to the court!
However, the emperor also understood that if he could not get rid of Ye Chenfeng, everything would be in vain, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I will ask myself after tomorrow morning."
The Queen Mother nodded happily, "It's good that you know what's going on. What's more, if you comply with the wishes of the court officials, let the Ai family sit behind closed doors and think about their mistakes. If the public's anger still cannot be appeased, then send the Ai family to the Huguo Temple."
"What are you saying, Queen Mother?" The emperor frowned, "Don't say such words again. You are my Queen Mother after all. They don't dare to do this!"
"The Ai family doesn't mind, as long as you do well." The Queen Mother said seriously.
The emperor fell silent for a moment, and then took a deep breath and said, "I understand that everything my mother did was for me."
It has always been like this. Ever since he was the prince, his mother has been paving the way for him, and now she is still helping him stabilize his rear, never stopping.
…
At that time, in the Duke Protector's Mansion——
The dark-eyed Lord Protector was looking at his little daughter in front of him, "Have you made your decision?"
He has always been obedient to this daughter, even better than his eldest daughter. His heart is indeed biased.
But the younger daughter actually refused to listen and insisted on marrying into the Prince Regent's Palace after she had already left that stall. This really made him angry!
"Yes." Qiao Xinyue said very insistently, "My daughter did not let the third brother's concubine do such a thing! If my marriage is ruined just because of her stupidity, I will not accept it!"
"Naive!" the angry Lord Protector scolded, "Your Majesty brings people to your doorstep, what do you think? What does this mean?"
"I..." Qiao Xinyue really didn't know, "Isn't it just that I don't want to kill people from the Duke's mansion? I'm afraid of offending you, so I let you handle it?"
"What a joke! Your Majesty, you have done a lot of things like beheading first and reporting later, why would you leave behind the murderer of his eldest son because of me?" the Protector asked with a sneer.
Qiao Xinyue was stunned, "Then this is..."
"This is the prince making it clear to me that he doesn't want you!"
"..."
Qiao Xinyue was completely confused. She really didn't expect that there was such a profound meaning.
However, the Lord Protector found out after the He family daughter was sent and heard everything.
However, out of love for his little daughter, he didn't point it out, but today...
If he hadn't stopped her, this innocent daughter of his would have gone into the palace to see the Empress Dowager again! It was obvious that she was unwilling to give up.
The Protector was tired and could only say clearly: "Yue'er, the prince is willing to express his intention implicitly because of my face. Otherwise, with his behavior, your reputation will be ruined now, let alone
It is impossible to marry into a royal family, and it is even difficult to find a good family."
Qiao Xinyue looked at her father in disbelief, with tears welling up in her eyes, "Why? Hasn't he never seen me before? Am I not beautiful enough? I..."
The Protector actually didn't understand, was his daughter beautiful? She was naturally beautiful.
In the eyes of the Protector, she is no worse than Mei Xiangnu, who is now known as the most beautiful woman in the capital.
"It doesn't suit your eyes. Think about it for yourself and stop being so ignorant."
After saying this, the Protector stood up and walked out instead of staying in his daughter's boudoir.
The distraught Qiao Xinyue collapsed on the ground, muttering all the time, "Why?..."
Since the first time she saw Ye Chenfeng, she had been secretly in love with her, and she had been looking forward to waiting for her to grow up! Her sweetheart would come to propose marriage.
But no, not only did he marry someone else, he didn't even want to give her the position of concubine. Why is this?
Qiao Xinyue couldn't understand, "Not a match for each other? How is it possible? It must not be like this! I want to marry him, and I don't believe he won't like me! I don't believe..."
…
Ten days later.
The outskirts of Beijing North City.
"ah!"
Xiao Chongli, who was pointing at the capital and screaming, was attracted by the flags on the city wall.
Mei Wen'er looked at the capital from a distance, still feeling that this heavy and dense city did not make her feel at home at all.
But in this city, there are people who make her feel kind. "Do you and your mother know that we are arriving today?"
"There was a lot of noise along our way, so we should know that my father-in-law may have been waiting at the city gate." Ye Chenfeng, who was holding his son and riding a horse beside him, speculated.
After all, his trip back to Beijing was equivalent to his return to the imperial court. There were many soldiers behind him, and it was a mighty journey! After walking for so many days, no one knew where he was.
"Then let's hurry up. I don't know what happened to the imperial grandmother?" Mei Wen'er missed her father and was also thinking about the empress dowager, who was said to have recurring illnesses.
A few days ago, Yin Shen wrote a letter saying that he was getting better, so they didn't rush, but this morning he said that his condition had worsened again!
Ye Chenfeng also kept it in mind, "You and your father-in-law will go back to your home for a rest later, and I will go to the palace to see you."
"Let's come together." Mei Wen'er said worriedly, "Maybe I can help."
Ye Chenfeng was a little worried when he heard this, "Your body..."
"It's okay. The walk wasn't fast or bumpy, and I'm not tired." Mei Wen'er said in good spirits.
Ye Chenfeng nodded and said, "Okay, let's go into the palace together. Zhongli and Nannan won't go."
"Yeah." The tender face of Mei Wen'er's little girl, who was still sleeping, and Chong Li, who was carried out, kept squealing.
As they approached the city gate, Mei Wen'er saw at a glance the Prime Minister and his father, along with all the civil and military officials, waiting at the city gate!
Not long after, Ye Chenfeng, who had already put down his son, was leading the way and jumped off his horse to meet his father-in-law.
However, when he dismounted, Prime Minister Mei saluted him with great respect! He knelt down and said, "My lord, Mei Chongwen, led all the civil and military officials to welcome the return of the regent who has defeated the divine dynasty and unified the Buddhist kingdom!"
"Welcome the Prince Regent!"
"Congratulations to the Prince Regent for his victory over the Divine Dynasty!"
"Congratulations to the regent on his unification of the Buddhist kingdom!"
"..."
The civil and military officials who knelt down one after another were all very excited.
A great victory over the divine dynasty was already a great achievement! Not to mention the unification of the Buddhist kingdom.
The people watching nearby did not know until this moment that the regent had unified the Buddhist kingdom.
Everyone was excited for a moment, "The Regent is invincible! The Regent is a thousand years old! A thousand years old, a thousand years old!..."
The people in Beijing paid homage one after another. In fact, many of them didn’t know where the Buddhist Kingdom was, but they felt it was very powerful!
So more and more people came to congratulate! The occasion was unprecedented, but——
"Boom!"
"Boom! Boom!"
Someone beat the big drum on the city gate! The excited civil and military officials and the people in the capital gradually became quiet.
And the man beating the drum was actually a royal censor! This made Mei Xiang feel uneasy after seeing his face clearly.
Ye Chenfeng also frowned, and was about to signal Yun Zhong to go up and take the person down, but it was too late.
"Your Majesty! Lu Zhi, I would like to ask the regent why he is taking his wife and children with him since he is marching on an expedition? Our military regulations prohibit female relatives from accompanying the army. You are knowingly violating this!"
