Chapter 550: Father Might Be the One Who Killed Her

d not let him run around outside recklessly. 。But will you listen to my advice For so many years, have you been able to control him” “I’m in the palace and he’s outside. How can I truly control him”“...The soul orb shattered. Even though Shi Li-yuan used magic to gather the soul, after Quan Qian-luo truly let go, it still turned into a wisp of smoke. 。Ye Wen sighed softly, "Go! It's a pity I'm not Jingyu, unable to give you a better afterlife." 。But Princess, I will bless you, may you be happy and fulfilled in your next life. May you never encounter familiar faces from this life again. 。The smoke dissipated, leaving only a thank you. 。There is no more Princess Qian Luo in this world. 。Zhua'er instinctively reached forward, but unfortunately grabbed nothing. 。She was unwilling to give up, and ran a few more steps forward. However, she only felt the cool breeze sweep past her. When she touched her face, she realized that at some point, tears had already streamed down her cheeks. 。"Miss, why am I crying" she asked Ye Wenyan.Ye Wenyan said, "Perhaps you are crying for your former mistress! Are you feeling sorry for her"Zhai'er nodded. "Although the maidservant only wiped dust in Madam's room before, Madam was kind and never treated her servants harshly..." 。I have served in Huayu Courtyard for many years, ever since I was a child. 。So I know how much the Madam loves the General, because even when he's not home, she still keeps his armor at home polished and clean, doing it all herself and never asking for help. 。The mistress said, the general was not only her husband but also a great hero of Bei Qi, a man who shed blood on the battlefield for peace in the world. 。She must have cultivated good fortune over many lifetimes to be able to marry into the Ye family. Therefore, even though her husband is away for most of the year, she never complains and instead takes care of the household and attends to her in-laws with care, so that the general can defend the border without any worry. 。"Miss, can you really trust what the princess says Is she telling the truth All these years have passed, General has come back fewer times, but he does still return. I've spoken to General myself, he's not the way the princess describes him! Except...except..." Dui'er paused, taking a long moment before continuing, "Except that every time he goes to see Grandmother he comes back very irritable, other than that, he's fine." 。" "Why would you become irritable after seeing the old madam" 。"The maid nodded, “I’ve encountered this a few times. It seemed like the mistress and the general discussed something, then the general went to speak with the old lady. After returning, he would get angry, argue with the mistress, drink heavily, and scold himself.” 。She reminisced about the past, and this recollection brought back many memories. 。"Madam and the General never seem to fight about their own matters. Every argument always seems to be because of Old Madam " 。One time, the mistress cried while saying, "You only came back once this year. I waited and waited, hoping for your return. But now you're leaving again because of a dispute between the old mistress and me." 。Can't we ever stop making everything about her She doesn't really care that much about you. 。Then the general said, no matter if she cared about me or not, she was still my mother. I did this just to make her care about me a little bit, so that she would be happy in her heart. 。A thousand years, why can't you understand us mother and son It's not easy for me, nor is it easy for my mother. I and your father are never home all year round, leaving her alone at home. How much pain must she be in 。You always say she's good to the second brother, but that's also understandable. After all, it's because the second brother diligently serves our mother and shows filial piety, so it's only natural that he is favored. 。" At this point, Zhu'er took a deep breath and said, "In the General’s eyes, there is only his mother. He has never had a wife at all." 。I hadn't thought about it so much before, but now that I know so much, I can't help but wonder if the General married for the sake of staying at home and attending to his mother Or perhaps to ensure the continuation of the Ye family line In reality, he probably doesn't care who he marries. He just needs a virtuous wife to stay at home. 。As for his own inner affections, he left them all to the outside world. 。"Ye Wen thought that the little girl's analysis was right, she even wanted to clap for her, "I always felt that the father wasn't quite right, now it seems, this man is too wrong." 。She told Daiyu about the story of the concubine from the border that Xiao Shuwai had told her, and also about how Xichun had administered the medicine. 。Xiao Shubi's meaning is that at the time, because her mother suddenly learned about this matter, she became very depressed and thus negligent in her defense, giving Xichun an opportunity. 。But just now I heard about the Long Princess's affair, Zhu'er, do you still believe that Mother was negligent and therefore fell for Xi Chun's trap

Zhu'er turned pale with fright, "Miss, what...what do you mean"

She let out a long sigh, stood up, "Between us, we say what we say. Once you leave this room, pretend you never heard any of this>>> 。"My dear, Mother isn't negligent in her defenses. It might be your father who killed her!"

The gate to the Xuming Hall was opened and Chi Hongfang was still waiting outside.

As soon as she came out, he rushed to meet her. Looking at the empty box in her hand, he understood everything. 。Chi Hongfang took the box and said to Ye Wenyan, "Jiang Shusheng went to the Prince Consort's residence. After this, I ask Your Highness to take care of it." 。Feifei and Wanting also went home. Before leaving, they asked Weichen to tell the Empress that they would come back to visit her in a few days. 。"Besides, there are some other things here."

Chi Hongfang handed her a stack of papers. Ye Wenyan took a glance and saw they were all sorts of house deeds and the like.

These are mostly famous for their night views, some are in the inner city, some are in the outer city, and some are in the suburbs. 。 。There is also a small portion that belongs to Lady Xiao, the head of the Ningguo Hou Mansion. These are things that have been moved by Madam Ye Er over the years, and I have retrieved them all. 。The Imperial Lord has spoken, these things are to be returned to Lady Ye. 。" Night Wenyan nodded, "Put it there first. Wait until my mother returns home, and then you come over again to give it to her personally." 。Thank you, Master Chi. Please tell Madam Chi and Fei Fei that the jewelry store recently received a new shipment. I have reserved some for Empress Yu, Madam Chi, and Mrs. Jiang. I will send them over in two days. 。"Chi Hongfang was so moved that he almost knelt down to show his gratitude. Ye Wen reached out and stopped him, "Uncle Chi, we're not strangers to the point of this." 。It's fine if you act this way around other people, but when we're alone, all this formality and politeness makes me uncomfortable. 。No matter what happens, let's stay true to our bond as sisters and because I call you Uncle Chi. You shouldn't be so distant. 。"You can still call me Miss Four. Empress Dowager would find 'Empress' too formal." 。“

Chi Hongfang’s old face burst into a wide smile. At this moment, he truly adored his daughter. How could she be so competitive Among all the official daughters in Lin'an Inner City, she chose to play with Ye Wenyan.” >>> 。Look, he's riding on the coattails of fame now, isn't that nice 。If the future Emperor calls him uncle, wouldn't the Emperor also call him uncle

After sending off Chi Hongfang, Zhuier asked, “Miss, are you staying at home today or going out”

Ye Wenyan said, “Going out, to take a look at the jewelry shops in the outer city.” 。And also, please remember to leave a share of the jewelry for the Right Minister's wife. 。 is recommended by Lin Dongjia.

This favor must be reciprocated.

"

The little girl nodded, but couldn't help asking, “Miss, what are you going to do about General Da”

Ye Wenyan waved her hand, “Let me think…” 。The two walked to the front yard and called Zhou Shang to prepare a carriage. Before they could even leave the mansion, Ye Chu Lian stopped them. 。

Night Wenyan turned back to ask her, "You didn't sleep all night last night, and at this time you are not in the room to make up for your sleep, what did you come out to do"

"I'm not sleepy!" Ye Chu replied crisply, "Sister Four, where are you going I'll go too, take me with you!"

Night Wenyan nodded, "I'm just going to the jewelry shop in the outer city to have a look. If you want to follow, just follow! It's also good to see the shop facade. The incense business also needs to be prepared as soon as possible. When it's ready, you will still need to go and find Empress Yu to talk about it in detail..."

The two of them chatted as they got into the car, and Zhuai'er and Sui Xi followed suit. 。Zhou Shang shouted — "The two young ladies, please sit down!" Then he raised his whip and rode his horse out of the city. 。

Since we're talking about the incense business, Ye Chu Lian asked another question: "Fourth Sister, why do you have to involve Empress Dowager Yu Also, why did you entrust this matter to me and my elder sister We actually don't know anything, we're all here to learn from you">

Since you're the one teaching us, wouldn't it be better if you opened this shop yourself Big sister has a clinic, and I can brew medicinal wine. This kind of life already satisfies me; I don't mind earning a little more silver from incense. 。“ Ye Wen smiled, “The reason I brought you into this incense business isn’t to let you earn more silver, but to give you a chance to get closer to Empress Yu.” 。Now that the political situation is settled, Quan Qingcheng's position as emperor is secure. Even with a regent king still in power, he is only seventeen years old, and assuming full control of the government is only a matter of time. 。From the front and back palaces, it was Empress Li's world. Now, things have changed. More and more people are starting to accept this reality, beginning to distance themselves from Empress Li and draw closer to Empress Yu. 。Moreover, with Shi Liyuan's punishment of Li Yanran, the Li family's downfall is a foregone conclusion. Therefore, the rise of the Yu family is also inevitable. 。I don't know much about the Yu family, but from a few interactions, Empress Dowager Yu seems like a good person. 。Besides, with my and Shili Yuan's connection, she won't mistreat you. 。" You're scaring me, sister! What do you mean by "treating her favorably" or "unfavorably" I and elder sister aren't going to marry her as our daughter-in-law, why should she treat us unfairly Please be straight with me. Tell me what you're thinking because I need to be prepared. After all...I'm still thinking about someone else! But sister, I promise I'll be obedient. If you have other arrangements, I'll definitely follow your lead. Just tell me how to marry and I will." 。As for who I have in mind, rest assured, I'll keep him tucked away in my belly. Not even in my dreams will I reveal a word. 。Ye Wen thought she was overthinking it... >as a little confused, because the dream felt so real. It seemed like she had lived two lives: one in the dream and one in reality. 。She could remember the beautiful girl who had accompanied her ice f...
