poken understanding and actually saying it out loud. 。Given Ye Wen's current arrogance, if he admitted it, she could directly attack him right here and now. 。Back then, if he wanted to fight, he'd ju...No one knew what was going on, just as no one knew that moments ago, Ye Wen's hand had been hidden in his sleeve, secretly crushing a piece of candied plum. 。Neither Ye Chulian nor Lady Ye, nor any of the onlookers, knew 。People just thought Old Madam Ye had gone mad, confirming what Ye Wenyan had just said: Grandmother didn't take her medicine today, and her mind is unclear. 。It's understandable, after all, husband and son passed away one after another, who could withstand such a blow 。Even though Lady Ye managed to make it through this, if she hadn't been so strong, she would have gone with them. 。Then people began to sympathize with the Old Lady of the Night, and even some people stepped forward to advise: "You shouldn't be too angry. The dead cannot be brought back to life, so those who are alive should always live a good life." 。Look, your granddaughters are so filial. One of them endured your slander without getting angry, and the other endured being scolded publicly and gritted her teeth to endure it. What more could you possibly want with such good granddaughters Today is New Year's Eve, a time for family togetherness which is stronger than anything else. It’s also a comfort for those who have passed away. 。“ Lady Ye stood there, bearing the pain throughout her body. She couldn't understand why all of this was happening. Her mind raced back and forth, trying to make sense of it all. At that moment, someone came out from the door of the Chaofeng Palace. It was a high-ranking court lady, followed by two eunuchs. 。People only found this palace maid unfamiliar, almost no one knew which palace she was from. 。But no matter which palace or court, they all come from the imperial palace. At this moment, either they are starting to check the invitations and let people into the palace, or they are looking for someone. 。Then he automatically made way, watching as the three of them walked step by step from Zhaofeng Gate to the Ye Family. 。"I, Wen, respectfully request permission from Miss Fourth to meet with you tonight." 。“The woman from the palace introduced herself as Congwen. Someone recalled, wasn’t this the handmaiden who served by Empress Yu’s side” 。She can no longer be addressed as Lady Consort Yu, she must now be called Empress Dowager. 。Yè Wēn Yán had an impression of Cóng Wén. The first night she came to this world, she went into the palace to treat Quán Qīngchéng's throat. 。Outside the Immortal's Hall, this palace maid had always been by Empress Yu's side, never leaving her. 。Then she smiled and nodded: "No need for formalities, but what is the Empress Dowager's command"From Wen stood up, smiling brightly, "Dare not to command, Empress Dowager please have Sister Night Four enter the palace first and visit Changxin Palace." 。"and to Mrs. Mu and Ye Qingmei, he continued, “Madam Night and Big Sister, please accompany us as well. The Empress Dowager has prepared some fine tea for you both to try.” 。Then, everyone's attention once again focused on Ye Wenyan. They quickly remembered that the night the previous emperor passed away, Ye Wenyan had cured the current emperor's voice, allowing the man who had been mute for over a decade to speak again. 。I think good fortune began from that moment. 。But, are you only inviting the Ye Sijie family of three What about Old MadamSomeone quick-witted asked, "Isn't Old Madam Ye coming too"From Wen turned his head and followed the sound, his smile still present on his face, but it was no longer so endearing. 。The Empress Dowager has prepared only three cups of tea, and it is not up to you to decide who receives them. I suggest this lady show some respect for herself. 。After finishing her words, she said to Ye Wen again, “Sister Four, please!”
Ye Wen nodded and, taking Mu Shi and Ye Qingmei’s hands, walked forward. After only two steps, she seemed to remember something and stopped to tell Jiang Wanting: “My grandmother probably fell ill today, you just keep an eye on her for me, and don't let her cause any more trouble.” 。At the palace gate, it's just embarrassing. If you make a scene inside the palace, then it'll be something that the royal family will hold against you. 。“ Jiang Wanting could certainly understand this meaning, so she immediately replied: “Wen Yan, you can rest assured, I will definitely take good care of Madam Ye and won't let anything happen to her.” 。Just remember to give the old lady her medicine when you turn back. Who can stand this kind of commotion 。“Come here quickly, Fifth Sister. Let's get away before Grandmother finds us again.” 。Mu then recalled Liu Yan's entrustment before leaving, and said to Jiang Madam: "Please take care of this child a bit, and don't let her grandmother beat her anymore." 。He finished, then glanced at Ye Chulian's face. Because she had been slapped at the gate of the mansion, her face was now completely swollen, and her hair couldn't even cover it. 。I couldn't help but sigh, but I didn't say anything more. 。Yè Wényán on this side thanked Jiang Wanting and also thanked Madam Jiang, and then followed Mrs. Mu's gaze and glanced at Yè Chúlǐn
Three people rushed towards the Phoenix Gate. As a scent of flowers blew past, Ye Chu'lian felt that the burning pain on her face suddenly subsided, and even the bruises from being pinched by the old lady seemed to be healing much better... This walk, coupled with the previous commotion, was all witnessed by Li Yanran. At first, she had just been watching the show, but seeing the personal maidservant of Empress Yu personally come out to invite Ye Wenyan into the palace made her feel a little uncomfortable. 。Just now she refused her aunt's invitation and instead spoke to Empress Yu, but unfortunately, Empress Yu didn't even look at her, nor did she know who she was. 。There were also some gossipy people muttering on the side, "Sigh, you don't even know who your own family is, which relatives to fawn over and which not to. You have to go out of your way to flatter those who are completely unrelated. I really wonder what you're trying to achieve." 。She glanced over and saw a girl standing with Jiang Wanting. She looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, not as pretty as Jiang Wanting, but very cute. 。Round and plump, it's not quite obese but rather the type of fullness that resembles a baby's innocent charm, making one want to steal another glance. 。
Such a lovely girl, yet she speaks just as harshly and unpleasantly as Jiang Wanting. Those last few sentences were clearly directed at her. She is Li Taizi's relative, yet she turns around to flatter Yu Taizi. Anyone watching would have to think twice about her intentions.
She couldn't help it either. Before, the sixth prince was fine, and everyone thought that the sixth prince would inherit the throne in the future, so the Li family didn't have any other plans. They just wanted to do a good job outside and rely on the sixth prince for a living. 。But I didn't expect that the wind would change overnight, and the Seventh Prince ascended the throne. 。Although the Empress Dowager was still the Empress Dowager, although the Regent King was also leaning towards the side of the Empress Dowager, 。Li's family believed that all of this was merely temporary, and once the emperor came of age, the Regent King would cease to exist. 。Without the Regent's deterrence, who would care about an Empress Dowager who wasn't the biological mother of the Emperor The Li family wanted to remain powerful; they had to make a choice. 。
Now, given this situation, it would be better to take a different path, one that is relatively stable and carries little risk, than to follow Empress Li in attempting to overturn the new policies.
It's too dangerous to follow Empress Li. If things go wrong, it could lead to the destruction of our family and everything we have. 。...and let Li Yanran get close to the new emperor. At worst, the new emperor wouldn't look favorably upon her and dismiss her. For the Li family, there would be no significant loss... 。As for whether Empress Li would be angry, the Li family couldn't care less. 。Moreover, Li Xiaohan also relies on the Li family. Without the Li family, that Empress Dowager would be a toothless tiger, lacking in stature. 。Li Yanran calmed her mood and didn't want to bother with the pretty and cute girl. 。She had already recognized her; it was Chi Hongfang's daughter, the magistrate of Lin'an Prefecture. She had always been close to Jiang Wanting and Ye Wenyan. It was normal for her to sneer at them during this time. 。Mrs. Li, seeing her daughter's emotional changes, was quite pleased. 。This is the daughter she raised, capable of anger and sadness, but everything remains hidden beneath the surface. 。No matter how turbulent her heart may be, to outsiders, she remains the elegant and dignified eldest daughter of the Li family, still the renowned royal relative known throughout Lin'an City. 。Just one thing... Tao looked toward the direction of the Phoenix Gate and happened to see Ye Wenyan's group enter the palace gates. 。The Imperial Palace banquet invited officials and their families to enter the palace. It is not allowed to bring subordinates. 。None of them brought maidservants, all the servants were waiting in their own carriages. 。Yet why is there a granny following him at night And how did he enter the palace without anyone stopping him As they walked towards Changxin Palace, Wen repeatedly reminded the three of them that they could walk slower. Snowflakes were falling continuously, making the path slippery. 。The Ye family were not newcomers to the palace. Even Ye Qingmei, who was usually low-key, was the eldest daughter of General Ye, and a guest the royal family always invited to every palace banquet. 。Therefore, everything in the palace was familiar and commonplace to them. The only thing that was new was Changxin Palace. Empress Dowager Yu had never been here privately before either. 。Mu Shi clutched Ye Wen Yan's hand all the way, afraid she would lose her again. 。Ye Wen could understand her feelings, and he also felt a little guilty in his heart. 。No matter what, she should go back to Ye Mansion in person and have a clear talk with her mother about the situation. 。Instead of just letting Grandma take care of the baby, allowing the Mu family to not see her for half a month. 。This mother has had such a hard time. First she lost her husband, then her daughter, and later, knowing she was a fake soul living in a real body, she still welcomed her with open arms. 。For this reason alone, she has to be filial all her life, and has to be good to her mother. 。Then she gently patted Mu Shi's hand, and in a hushed voice said, "Mother, rest assured. I am blessed with good fortune and will not be lost or die." 。On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, that was an accident, I assure you, such an accident will never happen again. 。" Mu shi inhaled deeply. These past few days, she had imagined countless times what manner her daughter would return in. 。...but she never expected to be directly sent into her carriage by a red light, as if it had descended from the sky, mysterious and magical... 。At that time, Ye Qingmei was so frightened that she almost screamed. Even she was terrified enough. 。To be honest, Granny was very calm. For them, this was just a common trick used by that woman from Yan Hua Palace, nothing to be surprised about. 。Then she listened to her words, it was Yun Chen, Lord Yun, who begged the Emperor to send her back and accompany the Ye family in putting on a good show. 。It was indeed a good show, directly driving the old madam mad at the palace gate. 。As for the matter of Lady Dust King, even if a crazy grandmother proposed to the emperor for marriage, how could she possibly succeed Mu thought wildly in her mind, and as she thought, she laughed, "As long as you are by my side, as long as you are with me, I feel secure." 。e you! Stop waiting around, Ye Chulian has already been taken back by Jiang Wanting and the others. If you don't do something about it right now, we're going home. 。I won't be able to stay in Beizhi f...
