Chapter 101 Undercurrent Surge

Two more days later, an autumn rain and a cooler one, and the temperature today dropped again than yesterday. The people passing by the streets had already put on thin cotton coats. Although this place was in the south, the temperature would not be as dry and cold as the northern ones, but the wet and coldness was also annoying.

After two days of rest, the first thing Hua Yinger had to do when she got up was to meet Jiang Yuyan. She had to go to the palace to find out what was going on in the palace no matter what.

Hua Ying'er put on a plain white robe and walked towards Zijin Pavilion. As soon as she left the door, the spy told Ye Wuyue the news.

When I heard the servant report that Ye Wuyue, who was in the elegant Zijin Pavilion, paused, and a painting of Jiangshan ink painting was naturally not in the mood to continue painting.

The scandal of the Prime Minister's Mansion that night was well known to everyone in the capital, and became a topic on the streets and alleys, after dinner.

Ye Wuyue took the warm towel handed over by the servant, wiped the hand holding the pen just now, picked up a cup of steaming tea and took a sip, "Uncle, she will definitely ask Jiang Yuyan to talk about how to enter the palace today."

Yang Qi, who was standing in front of the window, coughed a few times, "You really don't plan to go into the palace to see him."

Here he refers to Yue Tianyuan, whose life is hanging on the line.

No matter what, he is Ye Wuyue's father.

"When he had ever thought of seeing me?" Ye Wuyue smiled bitterly: "My mother is seriously ill. When I fell outside and was discriminated against and bullied, where was he? He was in the arms of that woman who was neither human nor evil!"

He turned slowly, and hatred appeared on his pale face.

Hundreds of years ago, the Tuoba tribe in northern Xinjiang gradually grew from a small herdsman nation, gradually dominated the six tribes of the grassland, established countries, and established friendly neighboring relations with Vietnam, and the two countries communicated with business and travel.

Many Tuoba people intermarried with Yue Kingdom and gradually accepted the etiquette language here, and Tuoba people had always had the custom of marrying Yue Kingdom.

Ye Wuyue's mother Princess Anji was appointed as a concubine. Tuoba State planned to marry Yueguo. At that time, the candidate for marriage was the sixth prince Yuetianyuan. The other princes already had families, and he was the only one who had not yet married.

The matchmaker said that the emperor gave the marriage to his parents' orders. Yue Tianyuan dared not refuse to obey, but just postponed the marriage for one year on the grounds that he was going to go out for study.

During this year, wars broke out among ethnic minorities in the northern border, and the Tuoba State continued to expand its territory in a series of wars, gradually becoming a small country affiliated to the Yue Kingdom to a big country whose territory could be compared with it.

The wedding date is imminent, and the marriage between the two countries is imminent. At that time, Yue King Yue-yi used the marriage and used a delayed strategy. However, after Princess Anji married into Yue, less than half a year, Yue-guo sent troops to attack Tuoba.

Tuoba Kingdom, which had just been war for several years, was no match for Yue Kingdom at all and was defeated continuously.

Prince Tuoba knew that the situation was over, so he launched a rebellion, forcing his father to commit suicide, and opened the city to surrender to Yueji.

Yueji accepted his surrender and appointed Prince Tuoba as the new king. Xinwang was Prince Anji's brother Tuoba Tao. On the surface, he vowed to heaven to be filial to the Yue Dynasty, but behind his back threatened Princess Anji to return to China with his mother's life.

Because he knew that Anji was pregnant at this time, leaving a pregnant Princess of Yue in Tuoba Kingdom can ensure that the Yue Dynasty will not provoke wars within at least the next year.

At that time, Yue Tianyuan was just a Buddhist prince. He didn't even think about fighting for the throne, but just wanted to be a free and easy prince.

He and Anji only had close contact once on the night of their wedding, and the two had no relationship. After that night, he embarked on the road of study tour again.

Princess Anji, who is already pregnant with Liujia, learned that a major change occurred in her mother country. Her father died under the sword of her brother, and her mother was in danger and she had to return to her country.

Later, Tuoba Tao's treacherous plan succeeded, and Anji gave birth to a prince, which was equivalent to the prince of Yue who was hostage in Tuoba.

This hostage is Ye Wuyue!

Princess Anji died of wind and cold just after Ye Wuyue was full. In the following twenty-five years, Ye Wuyue was equivalent to an unnecessary person. He was regarded as a hostage in Tuoba Country and restricted his movements everywhere.

After Yue Tianyuan ascended the throne, he seemed to have forgotten that he had such a son, and Yue Tianyuan's heart was completely on Queen Xiaolan.

Ye Wuyue and his mother are two political abandoned sons.

Why did Yue Tianyuan never think of calling him back? Since he never regarded himself as his son, why should he regard him as his father?

All the humiliation of more than 20 years have been remembered clearly in all the details of the night and the moon.

He bit his lip and stood by the window, his whole body stiffened, and the blood of hatred rushed straight from the soles of his feet to his forehead. The past scenes appeared involuntarily until the white figure downstairs came into his eyes.

The two clusters of flames in his eyes slowly extinguished until they returned to their usual coldness, "She is here!"

Since the moon-watching banquet in the palace and the first time he saw Hua Ying'er, he felt that Hua Ying'er was different from an ordinary woman. At present, he couldn't tell the difference, but it was a damn intuition.

If she is brave and dares to contradict the empress dowager, this is not enough to attract Ye Wuyue's attention. In Tuoba, the woman's courage is no less than that of a man.

If she is outstanding in appearance, it is indeed a bit eye-catching, but Ye Wuyue has never been attracted to the woman's appearance. He is like a piece of ice, and no matter how beautiful a woman is, she cannot arouse her interest at all.

After analyzing various factors, Ye Wuyue didn't think that Hua Ying'er had anything special. If she had to find something special, it might be that her unique temperament was not very similar to those who lived in this world, and she felt that she did not belong here.

Hua Ying'er seemed to have come here for a trip. She had the courage to be unafraid of anything, and would not shrink her hands and feet. She took this into consideration and that. Speaking of this, Ye Wuyue automatically took the seat himself.

For twenty-five years, he has been like a bird with wings tied up by people. Even if the blue sky is in front of him, he dare not spread his wings and fly high. He is careful every step he takes. There are countless pairs of eyes behind him looking at him, waiting for him to make mistakes, waiting to peel his skin, eat his flesh, and drink his blood.

Ye Wuyue is a person who has no control over himself!

Perhaps it was Hua Ying'er's fearless and unscrupulous temperament that made him feel that this woman was unusual.

If Hua Ying'er can become the person around him and use it for him, why worry about not being able to show off her skills in the future? In Ye Wuyue's cognition, in troubled times, women must rely on men to survive and achieve something.

Now he thought Hua Ying'er was dependent on the Yue Palace, so he had the intention to dig her over.

"Is there any movement in the palace these days?"

"There is no movement, but it's more like the tranquility before the storm."

"If we can use her, or even the power of the Yue Palace, in the future, in Yue, or even Tuoba,..." Yang Qi raised his head and shut up after facing Ye Wuyue's eyes because he knew that Ye Wuyue would not agree to his plan.

Ye Wuyue walked back from the window, picked up the handwarmer, and put it in her hand, "Not to mention that Hua Ying'er will not accept the benefits we give, the more one person can achieve, the more she will not easily accept the olive branch extended by strangers. The higher the person is at the upper level, the more she understands the disadvantages of owing favors to everyone."

They wanted to win over Yueda, but they had to create opportunities slowly and refused to use bad tricks that could be seen at a glance to win over talents.

Water drips through the stone, slowly, little by little, give it a little at a time, without too much, and it will naturally take effect after a long time.

***

Today, Hua Ying'er was wearing a plain white peach spotted robe. When she walked around, the robe was gently rippling, with a faint peach blossom scent, giving people a lively and beautiful feeling. With her sweet and cute face, a hint of arrogance was gently outlined by the corners of her lips, as if the lotus fairy who can be seen from afar and cannot be played with.

As soon as she walked out of the carriage, she arrived at the gate of Zijin Pavilion. The moment the pedestrians who were passing by could not help but look back and take a few more glances when they saw her.

However, many servants in the Zijin Pavilion recognized Hua Ying'er.

"Isn't she the last time she came to compete with Yue Sen for the Crimson Pearl Grass?"

"Yes, she still has a storage bracelet in her hand."

Several guards from Zijin Pavilion looked at Hua Ying'er's wrist and exclaimed, "It's her, it's her!"

"Why is she here again? Oh my God, Princess Jiang Yuyan came here just now, wouldn't they come here to make a big fuss again, right?"

"I heard that she is now the adopted daughter of Prince Yue. She is different from the past and has already flown to the branch to be a phoenix!"

"What, and such a good thing, it must be some unknown means!" Someone said contemptuously.

Hua Ying'er thought that these noisy sounds were all wild cats on the roadside screaming, and she didn't want to worry about them, let alone ask!

She looked up and saw the three big gilded words "Purple Gold Pavilion", and the boy with blue eyes rang out. I wonder if he was still in the Purple Gold Pavilion after that incident.

The reason why I chose to meet Jiang Yuyan in Zijin Pavilion today is that because of the special identity of Zijin Pavilion, no matter which faction, the forces in this faction dare not act rashly.

The guards at the gate of Zijin Pavilion were all sharp-eyed. Seeing Hua Ying'er's excellent temperament, she guessed that she had a noble daughter or a cultivator from a certain sect in the world.

"Cheer, please come in." The young doorman smiled and greeted Hua Ying'er.

Hua Ying'er glanced inside and didn't notice Aze's figure. She responded lightly and walked in.

Zijin Pavilion is still as usual, not very lively. It is not like an ordinary restaurant. If you want to come in, you need to make an appointment in advance.

The private room must be booked one month in advance before you can have a seat, and you cannot get in without a certain identity.

Of course, no one thinks this setting is bloody or unreasonable, because the entire Kyoto City can take into account both the elixir auction houses and the elixirs, and the ability to suppress the style of all forces. Apart from Zijin Pavilion, there is no second place.

Moreover, the highest floor of Zijin Pavilion is aligned with the imperial palace in the ground, forming a pattern of facing each other from afar. Standing on the top floor of Zijin Pavilion, you can see the treasure building of the palace. This geographical location, as long as you stand on it, your identity is self-evident.

Hua Ying'er was able to come in because when she first came to Zijin Pavilion, she got a special card given by Elder Ouyang because of the storage bracelet, and she could enter and exit at any time.

"Is the reception called Aze here still here?" Hua Ying'er thought for a while but stopped and asked the doorman standing beside her softly.

When he heard Aze, the doorman's originally rosy cheeks turned extremely pale when he heard this name.
