Chapter 103 The Emperor Is in High Spirits
rning, asking all the masters to get ready and leave immediately. They even packed dry rations for us to eat on the road." 。"Ke Jie, can you really go out like this If not, just tell the mansion that...The old lady's heart softened. After all, she had raised this child herself, how could she not spoil her granddaughter a little moreSo she gently stroked Ye Lianmeng's head and said to her, "You also need someone to rely on, grandma can't protect you for your whole life" 。I will get back to you and let your uncle and aunt know, so they can definitely take good care of you. 。“ She cried and buried her face in the old woman's lap, but while tears streamed down her cheeks, a smile played on her lips. ” 。What she wanted was this promise from the old woman, what she wanted was for her second uncle and second aunt to support her after the old woman passed away. 。Even if she was already married, she would still need a family who would speak up for her, so that she could live well in her husband's family. 。Fuyou stood at the palace gate for half a night, until dawn when she was allowed to enter the palace. 。It's a pity, even though she entered the palace, she didn't get to see Empress Li. According to the palace maids from Yong'an Palace, Empress Dowager was called to Yanhuagong by the Emperor himself in the middle of the night. 。Fu You heard this and felt a pang of anxiety, as if something was about to happen. However, all she could do was wait in Yong'an Palace for the Empress Dowager to return. 。Outside the Hua Hall, Empress Dowager Li finally couldn't stand it anymore. Her body swayed and she fainted. 。The precious toad was so scared that he quickly went to help, but Lin Shi gave a disgusted look and waved his hand: "Hurry up and leave, hurry up! It's really unlucky." 。"
Bao Chan was so angry that she loudly questioned him, “You are also an eunuch in the palace. Don't you really put Empress Dowager in your eyes”
Lian Shi corrected her with a serious face: "Our family is an eunuch of Yanhuagong, and Yanhuagong is several generations away from the imperial palace! So you have to be careful with your words."
If we were to force Yanhuagong's people to be considered members of the Imperial Palace, then our Yanhuagong would absolutely refuse. 。“He continued speaking, glancing at Empress Li again, and said, 'Our family doesn't disregard the Empress Dowager. However, we also ask that the Empress Dowager be worthy of her position.'" 。Only when a woman truly embodies the role of a virtuous wife and mother, does she deserve respect and be truly valued. 。Let me remind you, don't even think about revenge against my family, you don't have a chance. 。Unless you send assassins to kill us, but what's the point then After we're all dead, you're still going to die anyway. 。Okay, it's time to head back. Better safe than sorry in case the Emperor changes his mind later on. 。The most foolish thing in the world is to argue with Yan Huagong. No matter how much you talk, it's impossible to reason with them, not even over several lifetimes. 。" Finally, Empress Li left. She was carried down the mountain by Baochan, supported and carried on her back." 。
The 199 steps were climbed with a scramble, so much so that even Juetui couldn't help but want to cover her eyes.
Lian Shi laughed cheerfully at Zhuai'er: "Don't be afraid, you won't die from a fall. The palace maids around the Empress Dowager are very capable." 。"
Zhui'er had just woken up, her eyes still half-closed. She asked Lian Shi, "Didn't we offend Empress Dowager too badly Lian Gonggong, I won't hide this from you, in all my years, I've never done a deal as big as this one>>>" 。
I used to think that after following Fourth Sister, I was able to hit the old lady's thugs twice with a brick, and it was already the peak of my life.
I never expected that shooting two women wouldn't even be considered the peak, not even close to the foothills. 。"This night's stay is truly the peak!"
Lian Shi felt this girl was really interesting, and couldn't help but tease her: "Isn't it You even dare to retort to the Emperor, there's no one else down here who dares to speak to the Emperor like that" 。"
Zhuier was a little afraid, "I didn't know he was the Emperor! If I had known he was the Emperor, I definitely wouldn't have dared to speak to him, and I would have had to kneel down and kowtow to him" 。Oh well, it seems this feud is set in stone. I wonder what the Emperor's thoughts are, and if he'll hold a grudge against us. 。If this turns out to be a prank, I'm in big trouble. 。That night, the inner city of Lin'an was quite lively. The fire at the Duke of Su's mansion alone kept people entertained for most of the night. 。Not to mention the process of Sixth Prince later taking all the servants of Duke Su's Mansion, walking from the ruins of Duke Su's Mansion to his other courtyard in Lin'an city. 。The massive crowd was like a parade, the key being that everyone's face was half white and half black, some even had hair burned to a mess. It was quite comical looking. 。This was probably Quan Qinglu's most embarrassing moment in his life. Because the prince’s mansion was burned down, everything except people turned to ashes, including gold and silver and carriages. 。He did try to seek help, but the fire burned in such a strange way that anyone with half a brain could figure out where it was going—to Yan Hua Palace. Who would dare to help him
Therefore, Quan Qinglu endured the ridicule of everyone, the biting cold of late winter and early spring, and the despair that gnawed at his soul. Finally, just before dawn, he entered his other manor.
The moment the gate closed, he slumped to the ground, unable to hold back any longer, and burst into tears. 。
None of the commoners dared to advise, even the eunuch in charge, Fang Hai, just stood silently by until news came from outside that Ye Hongzhuang had been thrown out of the city by Ji Ma Ma. Only then did he step forward to report to Quan Qinglu
"Quan Qinglu was furious and cursed: “Ye Hongzhuang, she is a jinx! It’s best that she’s dead, gone forever! If it weren't for her, how could I have ended up in this state How could I have made everyone in Lin'an City laugh at me!”Fang Hai quickly advised: "Your Highness, cursing feels good, but we still need to find someone.” 。Even if you weren't rushing to that woman in red makeup, she still has your child in her belly! Now that Da Di is the oldest, we absolutely cannot risk losing another child at this crucial time. 。As soon as there was a child, Quán Qīnglù became even angrier. 。He was a good man, who could have had a wife managing the household and beautiful women surrounding him. Now he's ended up like this dilapidated house by the sea. 。He was not yet twenty years old, could his whole life only be a eunuch "If I had known this day would come, the king wouldn't have listened to the empress dowager back then. He should have given birth to more children earlier!" Quan Qinglu gritted his teeth, and when he thought about the children who had been aborted before, his heart ached even more. 。Empress Dowager Li emphasized seniority and lineage, and her sons were still young. Therefore, she constantly advised her sons not to indulge too early in the pleasures of the world. 。Alas, her son was disobedient and insisted on this. She had no choice but to settle for a compromise, asking him not to have any concubines or illegitimate children before he bore an heir. This way, she hoped to avoid future complications where the children of those women with lower status might lay claim to power once he ascended the throne. 。 But as the saying goes, "one who walks by the river bank is bound to get their shoes wet." So later on, she could only keep patching up after her son's messes, sending bowls of abortion pills to Duke Su's Mansion one after another. This resulted in His Sixth Highness, Quan Qinglu, having no children to this day. 。
Fáng Hǎi repeatedly brought up the matter of his child, and Quán Qīnglù couldn't help but rethink things.
After much deliberation, it was decided to send someone to retrieve Ye Hongzhuang. Then, they received word that she was staying in their own mansion. 。At least the child is safe, even if it's a daughter! Fang Hai sent people out of the city. The ones he sent were guards from Su Wangfu and several of Quan Qinglu's dark guards. 。The horse issue can also be solved. Just seize them from the outer city, under the banner of suppressing Wang's lineage, no one in the outer city would dare to refuse. 。As the saying goes, some families rejoice while others grieve. Conversely, it is also true that some families mourn while others find happiness. 。The second room of the Ye family was worried, Prince Su was worried, but Your Majesty Emperor was very happy because his Ayan could finally stay in Yanhuagong. 。Even if it's just until the New Year, that is something worth celebrating. 。The Emperor's way of celebrating was to cook, making all sorts of dishes for Ye Wenyan. 。To enrich the interests of the esteemed Emperor, Lian Shi even went out of her way to procure several cookbooks, including both restaurant dishes and home-style recipes. 。Then, someone had people buy a large amount of rice, noodles, meat, vegetables, and other ingredients, filling the Yan Huagong kitchen to the brim before finally stopping. 。Shi Liyuan spent some time practicing with these ingredients and finally, during the evening meal on the sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, he came up with a full sixteen dishes. 。He told Ye Wen about the moon: "The fifteenth moon is full, so the sixteenth must be an even better day. 。Today happens to be the sixteenth, so this deity prepared sixteen dishes for you. Please try them and see if they suit your taste. 。" She was astonished, "You wouldn't let me near the kitchen, staying there all day yourself just to make these dishes Shi Li Yuan, you're the Emperor of Bei Qi, you shouldn't be doing these things..." 。Just try it and see if you like it. As for what I should or shouldn't do, it's never been something that can be confined by a title. 。He personally served her, "You like to eat meat, don't you Out of the sixteen dishes, ten are meat dishes, and the other six are used to relieve greasiness. " 。Please try this barbecue first and see where it needs improvement. Next time, I will definitely make changes. 。She didn't quite know what to do, so she just ate the meat he had passed her. 。How does this taste It's different from all the meat I've ever eaten before. It has a unique aroma that is not greasy and not lacking in fragrance. The meat is not so soft that it can't be picked up, but it melts in your mouth. 。She instantly fell into it. 。What kind of Celestial Emperor shouldn't stoop to the kitchen, what kind of noble and refined person shouldn't be dragged into the mortal world 。The smoke from cooking oil couldn't cover the fragrance of his true nature. It felt awkward for someone as ethereal as him to cook for me. 。At this moment, Ye Wen thought of only one thing: how could she coax Shi Liyuan into cooking for herSeeing the girl eat a piece of meat and then ignore him completely, focusing all her attention on the dishes on the table, even standing up to circle the table as she ate. 。He seemed satisfied and pulled up a chair to sit beside her, watching her eat. 。Even though that little girl was covered in oil and looked messy, in his eyes she was the most beautiful sight in the world. 。When he stood beside her, he also witnessed this scene with his own eyes. He was so moved that tears streamed down his face. 。For how many years has Yanhuagong finally had a worldly look 。This meal lasted for two hours, and even though there were sixteen dishes, by the end, there wasn't much left. 。Shi Liyuan was stunned. How could this girl eat so much by herself He blurted out, “Aren’t you afraid of bursting” Ye Wenyan smiled sheepishly, “I am a little full, so I used a few spells in between to digest what I ate.” 。He felt that his daughter was truly a talented person...expect the old lady to be so angry. 。She's about to attend the palace banquet, but with her face beaten like this, how could she possibly enter the palace Or perhaps…She looked at the old lady who had...
