ēizhōu. He heard Yè Fēizhōu say: "I'm not one of the women in your household, stop this quickly!"He was so angry he could barely speak, “I just wanted to see the wound on your knee. What do you want”Y...Xiao saw that the old lady wanted to speak but hesitated, and couldn't help but ask, "Mother, what is it" The old lady thought for a while: "I'm just afraid she'll go find Hongzhuang to..." 。You don't know, on the night of the palace banquet, Sixth Highness wasn't wearing red makeup, was he Now, Sixth Highness is truly...truly becoming more and more like the Regent King. 。every single aspect of his behavior and mannerisms is different, he's like a completely new person. 。But he was clearly a person, so that's what changed. 。Sixth Prince's change of heart must have been instigated by Empress Dowager Li and the Regent King. With his injuries healed, this could be a turning point in the court situation. Therefore, we can't let up on Red Makeup's side yet. 。“Mother means, Hong Zhuang still has a chance”The old lady said to her, “Whether there is hope depends on whether she herself fights for it, whether our Ye family is willing to cooperate, and whether Ye Wenyan is willing to let her go.” 。"If he's willing to let it go, everything will be fine. But if he doesn't..." The old matriarch sighed, "Before, I only knew that child was willful and spoiled by his grandfather, but now it seems like it's not the case." 。She is independent, has a grudge against others, and most importantly, she must have a powerful backer. 。So I'm afraid she'll cause a scene at the Red Bridal House, and that His Royal Highness's hard-earned plans for a fresh start will be ruined. 。For the idiom "功虧一簣" (to fall short at the last moment), Ye Wan and Sheng really felt deeply touched, so much so that just mentioning these four words made the two of them shiver collectively. 。What a brilliant plan it was, so close to success, just one step away! But then Ye Wenyan returned, and shattered everything we had within our grasp. 。Sometimes they would think, on the second day of the first lunar month, even if Ye Wen returned an hour or even half an hour later, as long as she came back after the previous emperor's death, then everything would be set in stone. No matter how much trouble she caused, she wouldn't be able to enter the palace. 。It's a pity, there aren't that many assumptions. A failure is a failure, there's no going back. 。But now things have taken a turn for the better. His Highness, Sixth Prince, has actually recovered! He's even changed for the better. This is truly good news. 。Then Xiao said, "I'll have someone sent to Duke Su's residence right away to send a message and let them prepare beforehand." 。Well, I could just shut the door or move to some place nobody knows about. 。In short, you absolutely must not confront Fourth Miss. As long as you don't meet her face-to-face, things won't escalate too much. 。" The night scene was not optimistic, "Her mother has a powerful backer, do you have any guesses" The old lady's heart pounded, a name almost blurted out, but she swallowed it back. 。Then shook his head: "No, but left and right are nothing but Yunchen." 。“

Xi Chun, who had been sitting silently on the side all this time, suddenly spoke up: "What about that arrow The red one, what was it Why did it suddenly appear in front of us and pierce our shoulders Is it a ghost" She grew increasingly panicked, finally kneeling down to the old mistress, “I have a guess, Madam. I have a guess...” 。You, aren't you actually saying that Fourth Sister died on the second day of the first lunar month and what came back later wasn't a living person but a ghost 。Otherwise, how could her face be so pale Yes, not only is her face white, but her body is also cold. I was her first-class maid before, and I have touched her, so I know that she is particularly cold, and it's not the temperature a living person should have. 。So, you're saying she's a ghost”

This made Lady Liu almost cry in fright. She shrank into her chair, trembling uncontrollably.

The old madam was also afraid, but she wasn't afraid of ghosts or anything like that. What she feared was that she might be wrong. What if Ye Wenyan's backer wasn't Yun Chen Then this matter would be difficult to handle. If she continued to oppose Ye Wenyan, it would truly be courting death. 。For a moment, the house fell silent. Xichun wanted to say something, but this silence made her hesitate. 。After who knows how long, finally heard Ye Jing Sheng say: "What the hell, where did this ghost come from Don't you all know that on that night, Wen Yan relied on Yun Chen, and Yun Chen served... " 。Having heard that he is most protective of his own, it must be Yun Chen who has asked for this, so these things have happened. There's nothing surprising about it. 。“ Yes,” the old madam replied immediately, scolding Xichun: “A maidservant is just a maidservant, she has no manners.” 。We, the Northern Qi dynasty, are not without figures as godly as deities. Thus, such events are to be expected. 。Who made Yun Chen fall for Ye Wenyan So from now on, you all need to restrain yourselves. At least on the surface, don't make her feel too much pressure, otherwise if she comes back again, your lives will be over. 。" Xi Chun listened to this explanation, and she no longer thought about ghosts. But she didn't understand, "I haven't done anything, why did you take me along too" Looking at Liu Shi again, her heart was even more unfair, "Why is Sister Liu fine If the whole family was affected, shouldn't Sister Liu be like us too Why only let her go No, there's also Fifth Sister, both of them were spared. What does this mean Could it be that you are with Fourth Sister" The old lady was so angry that she slapped the table again, "What time is it now, are you still fighting for favor Why don't you understand why you were taken along Where did you crawl out from You forgot so quickly Hmph! You abandoned your old master, do you expect her to let you go" Ye Sheng looked at Xi Chun and took the initiative to smooth things over: "Mother, don't be angry. Let's think about what we should do next…" 。“What's to be done Didn't I tell you all, how to live one must continue to live just as before.” 。Yesterday I was with you all for so long, you should keep it in your heart. 。Your father is gone, but our family still needs to hold strong. Otherwise, we'll be driven out of Lin'an City sooner or later, and then things will get ugly. 。" She glanced at Xiao again. The mistress of the household was still sitting on the ground, and she couldn't help but feel both angry that Ye Sheng didn't value the Xiao family, and angry at Xiao herself for not fighting back. " 。"Quick, help your wife up! She is the mistress of this General's manor, your rightful wife. Think carefully about what you want, and live well with your wife!" 。Only when husband and wife are united can they withstand external enemies, otherwise you will only have to wait for death. 。Don't blame me for scaring you, these days you should have experienced it yourselves. 。"

The night scene was obedient this time, not only helping Xiao Shi up, but also tugging at her clothes and even wiping away her tears. " 。Xiao shi felt a wave of injustice and was about to cry again. He quickly soothed her with gentle words, looking like a truly loving couple. 。The old lady was very pleased and nodded: “Go back, I’m tired too.” 。The husband and wife paid their respects to the elderly woman, then walked out of the room first. 。The old lady glanced at Xichun and said coldly, "Don't you hurry to follow up! A concubine is a slave girl, and a slave girl must serve her master. Both the master and madam are your masters, so cheer up! The Ye family doesn't keep useless people. Since you followed your master, you have to give birth to children for him. If you can't even give birth to children, then what's the point of being a concubine" 。Though it wasn't pleasant to hear, Xichun also understood that the old madam was warning her to work hard too. 。Though Xiao Shi is the mistress of this household, she is getting on in years. She certainly cannot compare to her daughter-in-law in vigor. 。Now the second young master is out of favor and might even be dealt with by his father. If she could give birth to a son, perhaps in the future she would rise to power through her child and push the second mistress aside. 。She was so happy and ran after Ye Jing Sheng immediately. 。Mrs. Liu also stood up to take her leave. The old lady suddenly remembered that she seemed to have seen Ye Chulian at the door just now. She wanted to ask her where she had gone and how she came, but when she looked towards the door, she found that the person was gone again. She couldn't help but get angry. 。“The son is useless, and neither is the daughter of a concubine!” The old lady sighed repeatedly. 。Jun Tao quickly comforted, "My son is still useful. The second master and second mistress still need a legitimate heir, at least someone who can inherit the family business in the future." 。"What do you understand " 。"The old madam waved her hand impatiently. 'The Ye family is a martial arts clan, having produced two great generals in a row. Such a family is bound to be feared by the imperial family.'" 。The more military power one holds, the more important it is to avoid suspicion. That's why the leader had Feiyu study literature and calligraphy but never martial arts. That was the reason. 。

It's impossible for the Ye family to produce a third generation of generals. Otherwise, three generations of the military would all be under the Ye family's command. How could the royal family feel at ease That's why this old woman thinks her eldest son is useless. A useful one has to be her daughter, because a daughter can enter the palace and use the Ye family's power to secure her position in the inner court and protect the status of her children.

Then, if her child were to become emperor in the future, it would be a result that both the royal family and the Ye family would welcome. 。“ Jun Tao nodded in agreement, “The old madam is right, it was I who thought too little.” 。on always had two guards stationed here to attend to their master's needs at any time, this place became even safer.When he arrived, the guards immediately appeared, ready to ask Ye Fei Zhou why he wa...
