77 A wave of ups and downs and another wave(1/2)
Yulan could only stay in the room and worry, but she still had to act like she had a well-thought-out plan. She took a book and pretended to read it. The slaves and women below were already panicking. If she messed up, the people below would have to follow suit.
It's incredible.
After almost an hour, the good news finally came. The eldest young master and the third young master picked up the eighth girl and quietly sent her back to the main courtyard. After a while, Chengzong walked into the green quiet room, maybe it was too late.
This time, Chengzu did not follow him in. The two siblings dismissed the maids and servants. Yulan stopped pretending to be serious in front of her younger brother and asked hurriedly: "How is it?"
Chengzong sat down next to the Kang table, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said calmly: "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life! The eighth sister didn't have a car to sit in, and she didn't go far. My eldest brother and I followed the direction designated by my sister and chased her quickly.
, it only took a quarter of an hour to catch up with him. But..." Chengzong paused, a trace of anger flashed on his face: "She was walking alone on the street, not even a maid, but she met her.
A few scoundrels almost caused serious trouble. It was Mr. Feng from Jing Zhaoyin who passed by and rescued him! Eighth sister, you are really fooling around!" Chengzong has disliked Yu Xin since he was a child.
Xin caused such a treacherous act, of course he hated iron very much!
"Fortunately, fortunately!" Yulan patted her chest. Why did another Mr. Feng appear on the way? Yulan was a little worried again. Don't let others see anything.
Chengzong saw her worry and said harmoniously: "My eldest brother and I only said that the eighth sister was just a maid who went out to do things. Mr. Feng thought that even if he had suspicions, he would not suspect the eighth sister. Besides, Mr. Feng is my supervisor in the Imperial College."
Classmate, I will handle this matter myself, sister, don’t worry!” Think about it, who would have thought that the lady from the prime minister’s house would run out of the house in the middle of the night without even taking a maid, this is a bit too shocking!
Seeing that his words were full of confidence, Yulan felt relieved. Having such a young and mature brother really made her worry a lot less. She called Xiaoyu in again, gave her ten taels of silver, and told her to go
He rewarded the woman guarding the second door as hush money, and told them not to go out and talk nonsense. It was not convenient for the third young master to handle the matter, so Yu Lan had to take action himself.
Xiaoyu was a steady person to begin with, and after following her through these days of experience, she improved even more in her worldly skills, and she naturally knew what to say and what to do.
It was almost the second watch after Chengzong was sent away. Yulan wanted to go see the eighth sister, but it was so late to go there and tell the eldest lady that something was going on. Yulan thought about it and fell asleep.
After the eldest wife sent away the last official lady who was trying to get close to her, she was so tired that she could hardly stand up straight. Mother Wu helped her back to the yard, changed her clothes, and left the doorkeeper, Mother Li, to come over.
thing.
Since Mother Wu became the right-hand man of the eldest wife, Mother Li has taken a back seat, and the eldest wife will leave her at home to watch over such big things. Mother Li picked up a few important things and told the eldest wife. The eldest wife's body
I'm tired, but I can't help but feel happy. At today's banquet, a lot of ladies and officials came to flatter me. They slapped the eldest lady so happily that all 48,000 pores cheered together. Now I am also facing Mother Li.
He became more and more amiable.
After hearing what happened to Mother Li, she didn't say anything else and asked Miss Eight: "Xin'er came back early, has she been resettled?"
Mother Li originally wanted to tell the eldest lady that there was something wrong with the eighth girl's yard, but seeing that the eldest lady was in such a good mood, she opened her mouth and swallowed the words that came to her lips. Seeing that the eighth girl was also going to be the princess, she
There is no need to make a snitch in front of the eldest lady, as it will not offend the future nobleman.
The next day, Yulan went to greet the eldest wife early in the morning, and heard that Yuxin was ill. The eldest wife only briefly met with a few children, and then went to Yuxin's yard to visit the imperial doctor and get medicinal materials. At noon
Only then did Yulan find an excuse to see Yuxin.
Yuxin was lying on the bed, her face was sallow, her expression was weak, and the room was filled with a strong smell of medicine. But it was Yuxin who lost her temper and knocked over the medicine bowl. She refused to drink the medicine and would not listen to anyone's advice. The eldest lady
It didn't work, she was robbed by Yuxin with a gun and a stick. The eldest lady was so angry that she was shaking all over. Yuxin even brought up the old things again and refused to marry the prince!
The eldest lady was so angry that she almost fainted on the spot, and was forcefully pulled out of the room by Mother Wu. Green eyes with red branches burst into tears when she saw Yulan coming in. After the eighth girl was sent back, she contacted her back and forth, so she naturally knew who had made the complaint.
Secretly, Luzhi was not afraid of being beaten or scolded by her, but Miss Eight became cold and refused to say a word to her. Luzhi had grown up with Yuxin since she was a child and knew her temper, so of course she understood that Miss Eight was treating her.
I was completely heartbroken, feeling aggrieved and sad for a while.
"Quickly advise our girl!" Luzhi said, blessing his body and retreating with the little maids. Yulan found a chair to sit down by herself, but Yuxin just turned her face away when she saw her coming in.
, without saying a word.
After not seeing each other for a night, Yuxin’s face was almost haggard and out of shape. Yulan sighed, not knowing what to say. He advised her to accept the situation with humiliation and accept her fate like this? The emperor also proposed marriage, and the prince Xiaoding
It seems that there is only one way left. Don't say that Yuxin is unwilling, even Yulan does not want to see such an ending. As the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, Yuxin has a distinguished status. She and King Zhao
Although they are not in love, they both have some friendship for each other, so why did they break up after a fight?
It was not easy for women in ancient times!
"This, maybe it's God's will..." Yulan held it in for a long time, and then this sentence came out of nowhere.
Yuxin turned her face and looked at her with dull eyes, without any trace of expression, as if the eighth girl of the Yang family, who was once domineering and brilliant and did not take everything into consideration, died just like that. She already understood that everything about her
All her efforts and resistance were in vain. Her fate was already determined. No matter how unwilling she was, she had to be the princess! She rolled her eyes and said bitterly for a long time: "Traitors, you are all traitors!
"
Yulan understood that for Yuxin, betrayal was the greatest hurt. She was silent for a while, and finally spoke. Some of the words were unpleasant, but she still said: "It doesn't matter whether it's Green Branch, third brother, or me.
Our starting points are all good. Our only purpose is for your own good!"
Yuxin sneered: "For my own good? You are all doing it for yourselves!"
Yu Lan felt a surge of anger in her heart and said coldly: "I don't care what you think of me! But Yang Yuxin, please think about it with your own conscience! Luzhi Lurui and the others have served you conscientiously for more than ten years.
If you don't try your best at all, have you ever thought about it for them? If your wife finds out about what happened yesterday, you will be grounded for a few days and scolded at most! But Luzhi and the others may be beaten to death! Don't you think so?
You are such a selfish person? Can you really bear it? To be honest, you are happy to leave now, but what do you want the entire Yang family to do? If you lose the princess, who can bear this crime? Even grandpa
You have to be implicated and suffer! Let me make another assumption for you. Even if you meet King Zhao, he is really interested in you. He has accepted all the marriage proposals. He will abandon his great future for you and do whatever you want.
Elope together?"
Yu Xin's hands gripped the quilt so tightly that her knuckles turned white. She wanted to refute, but everything Yulan said made sense. She really couldn't think of anything to refute. She could only stare fiercely like this.
Yulan. Slowly, the harsh look in her eyes faded away. She was not the kind of unreasonable person. Her biggest problem was that she was too impulsive in doing things.
Finally, Yuxin lowered her head.
During this period, Yulan had helped her a lot. She had long thought that Yulan was the only person in the house who could talk to her sincerely, so she still believed in this sister. After a long silence, Yuxin finally raised her head slowly, with a smile on her cheek.
Two tears hung down: "What should I do?"
"Everything... let it take its course! The Yang family has supported us to such a great extent and given us wealth, honor and favor. It's time for us to do something for the Yang family!"
When she came out of the main courtyard, snowflakes were floating in the sky. Yulan tightened her cloak tightly, and her heart felt like a stone was stuck in her heart. Yuxin's future was bleak, how could she be better off? In this era, we really cannot tolerate two minds.
Does love like this exist?
That night, Luzhi came to Lujingzhai to see Yulan. When he saw her, he knelt down and kowtowed. Not long after Yulan left, Yuxin's attitude slowly softened and he no longer treated her and Lurui's maids.
The alienated indifference, the green branches are extremely grateful.
Yulan pulled her up and asked her about Miss Eight's current situation. Luzhi said that she was taking medicine and eating food, but she didn't talk much and looked very gloomy.
Yulan felt a dull pain in her heart when she heard it, but there was nothing she could do.
The eldest lady came over to see Yuxin again after dinner. She saw that although she looked like she was giving up on herself, she finally stopped making troubles, so she temporarily relaxed and felt that Yuxin's little friendship for King Zhao was just a little girl.
The children were messing around. After this period of time, after marrying into the East Palace, and tasting the power of the Crown Princess, they would naturally forget about King Zhao. Ask the maid and mother-in-law to take good care of her, and report to her immediately if there are any problems.
That's why the matter was brought to light.
Because she was young and in good health, after a few days, Yuxin's health was almost better, but she became silent and listless all day long. Yuxin recovered from her illness, but the old lady was infected with the cold again.
Because she is older, she is more likely to get sick in winter, and it is difficult to recover once she gets sick. The eldest lady quickly asked the palace doctor to take the old lady's pulse. Now the old lady is relieved about Yu Xin's marriage, as
In order to gain a good reputation, the eldest daughter-in-law and the eldest wife also have to wait in front of the old lady.
Unexpectedly, within two days, news came from the palace that the Queen Mother was suddenly seriously ill and in a coma. When the eldest lady heard the message from the eunuch reporting the incident, she was so frightened that her legs became weak. Even she could see that the Queen Mother was exhausted.
I have been holding on for the prince's marriage, but now I'm afraid I can't hold on anymore. But the prince hasn't got married yet...
The eldest lady immediately went to the palace.
The Yuqing Palace in the Forbidden City is the prince's bedroom. At this moment, the prince Ye Minshu, who is wearing court clothes, is sitting on the throne. This is the prince's inner chamber. He can change into loose and comfortable casual clothes, but the prince likes to always wear apricot yellow.
court attire.
The color of the prince's court uniform is strictly different from that of the princes. There is no problem for the prince to wear apricot yellow. If the prince wears it, it is over the limit. And this apricot yellow also symbolizes the noble status of the crown prince of the prince's country. The prince enjoys this respect very much.
a feeling of.
At this time, the prince's personal guard Fu Jie was kneeling at the prince's feet. He had just finished reporting the news obtained from the investigation of Yu Xin. The prince had personally ordered him that day, so of course he did not dare to neglect! After hearing this, the prince was already furious. He stretched out his hand and slammed the table.
The cups and plates on the table were all dancing wildly: "This bitch! Did she really say that at that time? How dare she question the imperial edict?"
Fu Jie's head almost touched the ground and he whispered: "Yes!"
The prince jumped down from the throne and ran around the room angrily. "This bitch, the fourth emperor didn't choose a girl from the Xiao family that day, but only gave Ruyi to her. I thought something was wrong..." He still had half a son left.
No words were said: Why, why did she fall in love with Ye Minyu?
Since his birth, Ye Minyu has challenged him everywhere. His position as the prince has never been stable for a day. His hatred for Ye Minyu is like a torrential river. Now Ye Minyu has almost snatched his concubine away.
How can he not be annoyed or angry?
After much deliberation, I put the blame on Yang Peishi again: "How did this old man Yang Peishi educate his children and grandchildren? When I get to the throne, I will never let them off lightly, never let them off lightly!"
Fu Jie secretly thought to my master, Yang Peishi, the elder of the three dynasties, is your father. Even the current emperor is respectful to the chief assistant. There is nothing you can do to get the chief assistant. You are a generation lower than your father, and your foundation is worse than your father.
What can you do to that old man? What's more, you can't even decide whether you can sit on the throne. Instead of trying to win over people's hearts, you just rage and curse at people who refuse to surrender to you. If you have this time, you might as well think about it.
How do you want to deal with King Zhao?
The prince was furious now, and he didn't dare to persuade him. At this time, a young eunuch hurried in and saw the prince like this. He stood there and could neither advance nor retreat. The prince, who was not angry, came over and kicked him.
He kicked him to the ground: "Slave dog, you want to see your master suffer, don't you? I'll kick you to death, I'll kick you to death!" He kicked the eunuch in the face several times, looking at the little eunuch's face.
Blood flowed from the top.
The little eunuch was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word. He just knelt there and let the prince kick and beat him. If the master is willing to beat you, it's to give you face. How could they dare to complain! Fu Jie knew that the little eunuch was usually just a reply.
To be continued...
