The final result of the discussion was that Ye Yichen went to the Bai family in person to deliver New Year's gifts.

This was Yulan's first Spring Festival after marrying into the palace. She had been busy until New Year's Eve and could not take a day off. On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, the yamen was sealed, but Ye Yichen had no time to rest. Even if he stayed in the palace,

Every day, countless dignitaries and dignitaries come forward to give gifts or pay New Year greetings.

On New Year's Eve, the family of three sat across from each other and had a reunion dinner. Although Yulan didn't want to let Qi out to eat together, she prepared the banquet and sent it to the small Buddhist hall.

Every once in a while, she would always hit the maids and women who were waiting in the small Buddhist hall. Otherwise, these people who were trying to flatter and disdain her would have to deduct her share when they saw Qi's downfall.

After all, Qi was also the prince's concubine. If word spread outside, it would be easy for someone to judge her harshly, jealously and intolerantly. It would be even worse if over time the prince misunderstood that he was deliberately abusing Qi.

What surprised her was that Ye Minwen came in early in the morning and told her that he wanted to see Qi. Ye Yichen's face immediately turned ugly.

Now seeing that Yulan has raised his son to be healthy and sensible, Ye Yichen feels even more disgusted with Qi. Back then, Qi often spoke ill of Yulan in front of his son. Yulan knew about this, and so did Ye Yichen. So he did not

I don’t want my son to see that woman again.

Ye Minwen had already learned to observe words and expressions. When he saw his father's expression was not good, he lowered his head in fear. He whispered: "My mother and concubine told me to be grateful and to repay kindness. I pray that my aunt will treat me well. It's Chinese New Year.

I should go see her!"

Yu Lan was very happy when he heard what he said seemed to be relevant. "My brother Wen has grown up and is sensible!" He pulled him over and touched his head.

Ye Minwen said happily, "Did the mother-in-law agree that I should go?"

Yu Lan smiled and said: "What's wrong with that? If you want to see her, you can go anytime!"

Looking back at the prince, he saw Ye Yichen's lips twitching, but he did not refute her decision. Yulan was slightly relieved and called Xiaoyu in: "Accompany the eldest young master to the small Buddhist hall to meet Concubine Qi.

!”

Xiaoyu knelt down and agreed. Ye Minwen went down happily.

Yulan watched Ye Minwen go down and explained to Ye Yichen: "After all, I have raised Brother Wen for so many years, so it is right to go see her. I arranged for Xiaoyu to follow her, and my personal eldest girl was present, Qi Shi

You must not dare to sow discord between our mother and son again!"

Ye Yichen nodded, and suddenly reminded her: "Check this, is there anyone who has any suggestions?" After all, Ye Minwen is only a five-year-old child, and he may not be able to think of this, so there may be someone.

Fanning the flames around Ye Minwen.

Yu Lan frowned and thought for a moment. She had already checked the people around Ye Minwen many times. There should be no problem. For these maids and women who were serving Ye Minwen, Ye Minwen was their real master.

The treatment given to them is good and they are treated leniently, so what reason do they have to burn Qi's cold stove again?

But Ye Yichen is right, we still need to check it out. If there is such a thing, staying with Ye Minwen will be a hidden danger, and he must be fired immediately.

Yu Lan smiled and said, "I listen to you!" After a pause, he added, "This year I asked someone to buy some firecrackers. I heard from Manager Mada that there are some types of fireworks that are particularly beautiful when set off!

When you watch the New Year's Eve tonight, you and Wen'er can set off firecrackers together!"

Now Yulan encourages Ye Yichen to play with his children whenever he has free time. Ye Yichen also knows that he is easing the relationship between him and his son. Ye Minwen is now five years old. When Bai was just pregnant with Ye Minwen,

Ye Yichen was sent to the northwest to fight against the barbarians. He was not even present when Ye Minwen was born.

Later, there were 365 days a year, and Ye Yichen spent 364 days at the border. For Ye Minwen, his father was more like an abstract symbol. Yulan only took him to his side for a few days.

Yue, Ye Minwen is closer to her than to Ye Yichen.

Yulan has always felt that the lack of either father's love or mother's love in life is a huge loss. So she tried to find ways to bring the father and son together.

Ye Yichen couldn't help but dumbfounded. "How old am I, and I still set off fireworks like a child?"

Yulan tugged on his sleeve and said coquettishly: "My lord, will you let it go just once? I want to see it!"

Ye Yichen was softened by her. He naturally understood that Yulan was doing it for his and Ye Minwen's good, so he smiled and nodded her nose and said, "I'll do it this time. Don't do these tricks again in the future."

.Your prince’s dignity has been completely ruined by you!”

Yulan immediately agreed with a smile, but Ye Yichen knew from her expression that she didn't take it seriously at all.

When Ye Minwen came back from Qi's place, Yu Lan saw that his face was still stained with tears, and there was a worried expression in the corners of his eyes. Yulan asked Xiaoyu to follow her to the inner room and asked, "Did Qi have anything to say?"

What?"

Xiaoyu said: "I have been following the eldest young master. Concubine Qi didn't say anything. She just asked about the eldest young master's food and daily life and asked him how he was doing. The eldest young master also gave you the nest silk you gave him.

Give candy to Qi Shi and say

It's because I didn't want to eat it, so I reserved it for Concubine Qi..." Xiaoyu was a little angry when she said this, "...You are so kind to the eldest young master, and you have spent so much effort to teach him, but you haven't seen him take the candy.

Bring it to you to eat!”

Yulan didn't mind much: "After all, the time we spent together with Brother Wen was shorter, and the relationship between Qi and him was not as deep as that between Qi Shi and him! Brother Wen is a filial man, so that's good." At three years old, he looks eighty, so at least that's what he looks like

Ye Minwen is not a careless person. If Ye Minwen had forgotten all about Qi Shi just a few months after arriving, Yulan would have had a headache.

He can forget how well Qi Shi treated him today, and he can forget Yulan tomorrow.

Xiaoyu said: "Qi started crying after saying a few words, which made the eldest young master cry with her. I was afraid that the eldest young master might cry something bad, so I took him back!"

Yu Lan was a little silent after hearing this.

After asking, Yulan returned to the hall, and Ye Minwen came over and pulled Yulan's sleeve: "Concubine, can't we ask Aunt Qi to celebrate the New Year together? She is alone in that small Buddhist hall, so pitiful

!”

Ye Minwen looked up at her, her beautiful phoenix eyes were like stars in the summer night, and there seemed to be a little tears in her eyes.

Ye Minwen was naturally beautiful, and making such an expression almost melted Yulan's heart. She picked up Ye Minwen and kissed him on the face.

"Now is not the time! You will understand when you grow up. Your Aunt Qi made a mistake, which is why your father was banned from the small Buddhist hall. Have you forgotten what your mother and concubine told you?

Everyone has responsibilities to bear, and if they make a mistake, they must be punished!"

Ye Minwen seemed to understand: "Then I will definitely not make mistakes in the future!"

Ye Minwen's mood was a little low all afternoon. It wasn't until Yu Lan told him that his father would take him to set off firecrackers with him in the evening that he became happy. He had never set off firecrackers in his whole life! He had never set off firecrackers before.

The servants let him go, and he watched on the sidelines.

After dinner in the evening, Ye Yichen kept his promise and took Ye Minwen to the garden to set off fireworks. Yulan and his maidservant followed them to join in the fun. The child's mood came and went quickly, and Ye Minwen quickly

The unhappiness of the morning was forgotten, and he ran around behind Ye Yichen, leaving behind a string of laughter like silver bells.

Yu Lan could still follow behind them at first, just to join in the fun, but by the second watch, she was too sleepy to open her eyes. Her head was moving there little by little. She saw Ye Yichen and his son setting off fireworks.

I fell asleep watching it.

Xiaoyue hurriedly pushed her: "Princess, you can't sleep here! It's terrible if you catch a cold!"

When Ye Yichen saw this, he also came over. This year, Yulan had arranged the New Year matters in an orderly manner. He did not need to interfere with the affairs of the inner house at all. In addition, the family of three was enjoying themselves. Ye Yichen felt very satisfied. He took his son to have a blast tonight.

He also found some childishness in setting off fireworks. After all, he was only less than thirty years old. In order to lead the troops to suppress his subordinates, he had to pretend to be calm and composed. In his heart, he may not have wanted to have fun like young people.

Thoughts.

Ye Yichen saw Yu Lan's sleepy appearance and couldn't open his eyes, and asked with concern: "Is it okay? Is there anything wrong with me?"

Yulan said: "I'm fine, Prince, don't worry about me, you father and son can continue to play with you!"

Seeing that she was still holding on like this, Ye Yichen ordered Xiaoyue and Xiaoyu: "Take your princess back to rest!"

Yulan hurriedly objected: "How can that be done? Today is New Year's Eve, and we have to stay up late!"

Ye Yichen said: "You are too tired from taking care of the New Year these days. When I come back from the palace tomorrow, I will ask an imperial doctor to come and take a look at you. If something is not right, I will quickly prescribe a prescription to recuperate you! As for keeping up with the New Year,

You're here with me, so just go and have a rest!"

Yulan really wanted to persist, but she couldn't hold on anymore, so she had to lean down and said: "It's because my body is weak..."

Ye Yichen tidied the messy hair on her temples and said with a smile: "What's the matter? Just rest and go. Tomorrow, you have to go to the palace to pay your respects."

Yulan then led the girl back to the main room to rest. Xiaoyue made a bed for her, Xiaoyu brought hot water, washed her face, hands, and soaked her feet. As soon as she took off her clothes, Yulan almost touched the pillow.

Fell asleep.

The two maids turned off the lights in the room and exited the room feeling a little worried.

Xiaoyue couldn't help but said to Xiaoyu: "The princess is like this...she really should find an imperial doctor to take a look at her!"

Xiaoyu said: "Just hope that this new year will be over as soon as possible. Tomorrow I have to go to the palace to congratulate you. It will be another day of suffering!"

When Yu Lan opened her eyes the next morning, she saw Ye Yichen standing in front of her and looking at her. The distance between the two faces was no more than ten centimeters.

Seeing her open her eyes, Ye Yichen quickly asked: "Do you feel better? Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Yulan slept soundly. She had no idea when Ye Yichen came back. She was confused when she woke up. Yulan blinked her eyes before she remembered to reply: "I'm fine."

, I don’t know why these days, I just want to sleep all day long. After sleeping, nothing will happen to me." He gave Ye Yichen a comforting look.

Ye Yichen saw that she looked very good and was in good spirits, so he felt relieved. "If you feel uncomfortable in any way, don't go into the palace. I'll find someone to inform the queen in advance. It's just that you are unwell."

!”

Yulan shook his head quickly: "No, no! Why bother with so many troubles, and I'm not really sick!" It's not impossible to go to the palace to congratulate you, but usually you have to propose marriage and say hello to the queen. The queen only agrees.

You don't have to go into the palace.

If you make your own decision not to enter the palace like this, it would be considered a serious crime of disrespect.

Ye Yichen still wanted to talk, but Yu Lan saw that it was getting late, so he called the girl in, freshened up casually, and then went to the west room to eat.

After eating, she started to put on makeup. With the equipment weighing more than 20 kilograms hanging on her body, Yu Lan immediately felt her body weighing down, and she seemed to be shorter.
