Chapter 153: Impulsiveness is the Devil
ove him and that's it. If the Regent King even meddles in such matters, then his vision is too limited."She spoke in a languid tone, her voice neither loud nor soft, much like when she was gossiping i...Fēng Zhāo Lián expressed dissatisfaction: " Yán, you're not being fair! We finally have a fun new maidservant, and you've already dismissed her after just a few words You're going to keep the emperor company What's so interesting about that little emperor who hasn't even grown his hair yet She wouldn't spend time with us two beauties, but instead goes to entertain an emperor What good is that"
"
Yè Wēn Yán didn't want to pay attention to her, even giving her a withering look. " 。Unfortunately, Feng Zhaolian excelled in rolling her eyes. After several rounds, she easily took the lead, winning Ye Wenyan's eye pain. 。 Qu Qingcheng saw Zhuier walking towards him, and he was quite happy. Because these days, he always went to Yan Huagong, and it was always those people who got along with each other, so he felt very close. 。When Zui'er arrived before him, she performed a proper courtesy. He managed to force a smile and once the ceremony was over, he beckoned her closer, saying, "Pe'er, come here quickly, I'm so bored!"The maidservant was angry, “I told you not to call me Pe'er! Is there really someone named Pe'er in your heart That’s why you keep calling me Pe'er” Though she said this, she still walked towards Quan Qingcheng. Finally, she stopped a step away from him. 。"May I stand here Is this distance appropriate"
Quan Qingcheng: "Appropriate, you can even stand a bit farther forward. That way it'll be more convenient for me to speak with you."
"No, I'll just stay here. This isn't Yan Hua Palace, with so many eyes watching. If something bad were to spread..." 。"Just pass it on, I don't mind. " 。"I mind 。“Zhu’er glanced at him sideways. “Although you are the Emperor and I am just a maid, a maid also needs her reputation. You can’t ruin my reputation, or else I won’t be able to get married in the future.” 。“ “cut” 。"Quan Qingcheng glanced at her, “That girl has a lot going on.” 。"Hey, I'm asking you, what brings you here" He was used to speaking to her in such casual terms, never using "Your Majesty," only "I." This was a habit he'd picked up while living in the Yan Hua Palace. 。After all, in a place like the Yanhuagong Palace, with the Emperor above everyone else, anyone who goes there is a slave. Even the emperor has to kneel on the ground and plant flowers for Ye Wenyan, doing the same work as an eunuch. 。 She looked at him for a while, then glanced at her older sister sitting below, and said with a pout: “It wasn’t me who wanted to come, it was my older sister who made me come.” 。I don't know why my sister made me come over to keep you company, anyway, I just listen to her. If you have any requests, just tell me, I'll definitely keep you company today. 。" Well then, Pei'er, what do you mean by saying you've made me feel better That sounds a little off, doesn't it" "Hehehe, I'm called Zhuai'er..." 。"Want to hear a tune Alright!" She bowed respectfully towards Quan Qingcheng, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this servant will definitely serve you well today." 。"
"Forget it, you're still out of tune! Yoyo, let's just go." 。“Quan Qingcheng is truly helpless.” 。However, it's not bad either. With Zhu'er by his side, he no longer rolled his eyes at Feng Zhaolian, and his mood improved a lot. 。When the Empress Dowager Yu saw this scene, she was a little flustered. 。"Xinyè, my fourth sister, please don't trick me! You can't do it, and neither can your elder sister. Are you trying to get a maidservant A maidservant's status is far too low! How could she possibly be suitable for the emperor
But then again, if it's just being a concubine, able to talk to the emperor and make him happy, that wouldn't be so bad either..." 。Thus thinking, Empress Yu felt relieved. She took another look at Zhuai'er, hmm, she was still quite pleasing to the eye. 。Maybe she looked at him too many times, Zhuier felt something was wrong, so she leaned to the side behind Quan Qingcheng, reminding him: "Don't keep talking to me, just watch the dance well, otherwise, the Empress Dowager will always look at me, and she might misunderstand that I have something to do with you." Quan Qingcheng waved his hand, "What could we possibly have You think too much!" 。" Your mother overthinks things, just stop talking to me. " 。" Below the banquet, Yèhóngzhuāng was invited to go by the old lady of the Ningguohou Mansion. " 。This year, besides the Marquis of Ningguo, the head of the Xiao family also entered the palace. The rest of the clan did not come, and Madam Ningguo was also absent. 。At this moment, Ye Hongzhuang was sitting beside Madam Xiao, whispering something to her. They seemed very close. 。
Lady Ye looked at this scene and felt very uncomfortable in her heart. She was her own granddaughter, but she was closer to her grandmother than to herself. Wasn't this slapping her face Ye Hongzhuang didn't even think about how her status as the Princess Consort came to be. She was really a person who betrayed those who helped her and had no conscience. >>> 。The old madam was feeling unhappy. Looking at the Ye family's table, she saw Mu Shi with her two daughters and Ye Chu Lian laughing merrily. Plus there was also Gui Yue County Princess, making the scene quite lively. 。Not only was he eating the vegetables, but he also started drinking alcohol. It really made her angrier the more she looked at him. 。Humans are like that, when they get angry, they love to overthink things, and they're especially prone to acting impulsively. 。Originally, because of Ye Wen's sudden appearance and powerful suppression, the old madam had given up on taking revenge against His Royal Highness, Prince Chen. 。After all, she saw that Ye Wenyan was truly someone not to be trifled with, and couldn't afford to provoke. A single misstep could lead to severe consequences, even being struck by lightning. 。Nothing could withstand anger, and this outburst of anger lifted her previously resigned spirit. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, feeling increasingly like she had been manipulated by Mu Shi and Ye Wenyan. 。Not only was she deceived, but her second son and his family were also deceived. 。A loving family, who haven't done anything wrong, were imprisoned and beaten. 。How could she possibly swallow this If she didn't do something, would she even be able to face the family of her second son in the future Wouldn't even her grandson have an issue with her as his grandmother
Lady Ye's mind became active again. She glanced at Ye Wenyan and Guiyue County Princess's intimate appearance, finding their closeness more and more suspicious. The more she looked, the more convinced she was that Ye Wenyan had a problem with the Fourth Prince. 。Because the Fourth Prince had stayed in Guiyue before, he knew County Master Guiyue, so upon her arrival, she immediately became close friends with Ye Wenyan. This all has its roots. 。The old woman thought and thought, then she stood up. Not only did she stand up, but she also walked forward. 。The elderly lady sitting at the same table and chatting with her saw this and asked in confusion, "Where are you going" The old lady Ye didn't answer, but quickened her pace, ignoring her waist pain. Seeing that another dance was ending, she immediately took advantage of the gap and walked to the middle of the main hall, knelt down before Quan Qingcheng. 。Quingcheng was startled and instinctively looked at Ye Wenyan, but seeing him shake his head, he frowned and asked, "Is the one kneeling below Lady Night" The old woman loudly said, "It is your humble servant. I greet Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"Quingcheng watched her perform the ceremony, then said, "Lady, please stand up and speak." 。"
The old lady stood up, not being the least bit polite. " 。She thought about it, she was the old mistress of a first-rank general's mansion. Her husband had worked hard all his life, and even when the previous emperor was alive, he had treated her couple with courtesy and exempted her husband from kneeling. 。Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, the old man is gone, but his military exploits remain. Therefore, she needn't belittle herself too much; she should put on the airs of a first-rank general's wife. 。Then, the old madam bowed in thanks and stood up, her spine straight and her head slightly tilted upwards as she addressed Quan Qingcheng: "Your Majesty, on the occasion of the New Year's Eve Palace banquet, my humble wife wishes to request a favor from you regarding a happy event." 。“Oh” Quan Qingcheng was puzzled, “What good fortune What grace are you seeking” The old madam said again, “It’s a marriage…” 。It is the marriage of my fourth daughter, General's House, to His Royal Highness, King of Dust. I humbly request Your Majesty to grant permission for their union. This serves as a testament to Your Majesty's deep fraternal bond with the Fourth Prince and also upholds the honor of our esteemed General's House. 。“ ” Quan Qingcheng was stunned, “My fourth brother is with whom” “The fourth young lady of the General’s Mansion, Ye Wenyan!” The old lady said word by word, "His Royal Highness, the King of Dust, and the fourth young lady of our General's Mansion, Ye Wenyan, are childhood sweethearts who have a deep affection for each other. This humble servant requests permission to marry them!" Zhuai’er stood behind and started grinding her teeth, “It's really unbearable that she doesn’t harm my older sister but it makes me feel uneasy.” 。"
Qian Qingcheng also remembered, no wonder the emperor was so angry yesterday and called him to Yan Huagong to specifically ask who on that day's court meeting first lost Night Four Sister >>> 。It's because Old Madam Ye schemed behind the scenes, this grandmother's acting is too annoying!
Quán Qīngchéng's face darkened, his tone turning icy. He asked Old Madam, "Why are my fourth brother and Night Fourth Sister childhood sweethearts who are deeply in love I remember they didn't have any private interaction, they haven't even met that many times, right"
"No, no..." 。"The old lady shook her head and said firmly, 'Not only have the two met, but they also had tea together on the fifteenth night of the twelfth lunar month.'" 。After drinking tea, the Fourth Miss stayed at Prince Chen's Residence without returning home. 。"
The elderly madam stamped her foot angrily upon arriving, “Alas, this matter is truly a disgrace. After all, I’ve never heard of an unmarried young lady moving into a man's house before she's married!” 。ch a captivating effectJi Rong said she didn't know, "After that, the Venerable Lord never mentioned it again. People just thought it was a farce, and over time, no one mentioned it anymore." 。Only t...
