e Northern Qi Dynasty had a law stating that men could only marry when they turned eighteen, so you'll have to wait! Besides, even though the new emperor is young, he's also a determined man. With his...Without using any magic, Zhu'er woke Ye Wenyan up with just one sentence.
Is something wrong with Princess Guiyue Didn't Feng Zhaolian plan to leave soon How could she cause such a commotion before leavingShe quickly got up and started tidying, while also asking Zhuier: "What exactly happened Who brought the message"Zhuier: "It was Yu, the maid of Miss Jiang, who brought the message. Princess Guiyue was having dinner at a restaurant when she got into a fight with someone, and she almost turned the whole place upside down." 。 "That winehouse did something to her Why is she so angry Is Wan Ting there too" Zhuai'er frowned, "Fish went to eat with Jiang Jie and Chi Jie. When they arrived, the restaurant had just opened. They ordered a whole table of dishes and several jugs of wine..." 。After just a few bites, the county princess of Yue returned her plate, complaining about the food and wine. She then began to argue with the staff at the restaurant. 。But none of that is the most important thing. The most important thing is that the restaurant belongs to our family. It has always been run by the mistress, but when we moved yards, it was taken over by the old madam. 。Yè Wēn Yán thought about it, back when the first and second houses switched places, many things from their side were taken away. 。Later on, although it returned, one shop was missing. 。"According to what that shop was taken by the old mistress, is that right" she asked Zhuier. 。The girl remembered these things very clearly and immediately said: "That's right, it was taken by the old mistress." 。Back then, things were really chaotic on our end, and my sister just didn't have the time to deal with it. 。But you can't just give that shop away to the old lady for nothing, you'll have to get it back eventually. 。" Night Wen nodded, "Well, it's bound to come back sooner or later, but things shouldn't happen before they need to. We can't take this lightly." 。Whoever runs the shop is responsible. Our matriarch can't be at the forefront when it comes to spending money, and then retreat when things go wrong. 。She ordered Zhu'er, “Find a clever maid to inform Old Madam and ask her to prepare herself. Go to the restaurant as soon as possible and handle the dispute in person.” 。The other party is the county princess of Gu Yue, and it's definitely not appropriate for the host to stay out of this. Moreover, if this matter isn't handled quickly, it might even escalate to the emperor's court. 。" Then, she immediately instructed a maid named Ali to take care of it. Back in the room, she asked Ye Wen, "Since we've let Grand Matriarch handle it, do we need to go" Ye Wen shook her head. "We still have to go, besides, you wouldn't want to miss this, would you" Zhu'er instantly thought of the Lunar New Year palace banquet that night and the strange Princess in the red silk dress. She couldn't help but get excited. "I want to see it, I really do! Princess Guiyue definitely won't hold back, right"Ye Wen only smiled and didn't say much." 。After dressing neatly, she went out with her pendant, but left the old nanny behind. 。Though she's perfectly capable of taking care of herself when she's out, she always worries about what might happen at home. 。Shi Liyuan brought Ji Mamā to her side, but in reality, Ji Mamā took care of Mu Shi and Ye Qingmei the most. 。As the two servants approached the front gate of the manor, they encountered the elderly mistress. Compared to Ye Wen's calm and composed demeanor, the elderly mistress appeared anxious and flustered. 。Although the letter was received later than the night-time, she had already arrived ahead of her and prepared to board the carriage with Jun Tao's assistance when Ye Wen Yan saw her. 。Just as they were about to go up, Jun Tao turned her head and saw Ye Wenyan walking towards them. 。
The old lady saw that Jun Tao's movements were slow and reluctantly said, "Hurry up, what are you doing standing there like a fool"
Jun Tao replied something to her, and the old lady turned around. At a glance, she saw Ye Wenyan smiling at her!
She hated this fourth granddaughter's smile the most because her previous smiles could please the old general, but now the more she looked at it, the less funny it seemed, and the more she smiled, the more frightened she felt.
Yet, Ye Wen simply didn't care if she was wet or not. Not only did he smile, but he also quickened his pace to get in front of her, pushing Jun Tao aside, and personally helped the old lady onto the carriage. Then, he got into the carriage himself. 。When Zhu'er saw her master get in the carriage, she immediately followed without saying a word. Jun Tao was left behind for a moment but managed to squeeze in as well. 。The coachman wasn't very pleased. He wished he had taken a larger carriage knowing so many people were going to ride in it. The masters weren't comfortable being squeezed either. 。The carriage was indeed quite crowded, barely enough room for four people to sit, and any large movements would be impossible. 。The old lady didn't understand what she meant, furrowed her brows and asked, "What are you doing I'm going out and didn't invite you. Why did you just squeeze into my carriage Don't you think you're a child anymore If a young lady doesn't even have this kind of upbringing when she grows up, it will be the face of our Ye family that will be lost when she goes out. " 。"
Ye Wen smiled, "Grandmother, rest assured, the reputation of the Ye family doesn't depend on me." 。Besides, I am the granddaughter of the eldest son. Being willing to sit in a carriage with my grandmother and mother would only make people think that our bond is deep, and they wouldn't dare to comment on my upbringing at all. 。As for what I was going to do, that's a no-brainer. Naturally, I would accompany my grandmother on a trip down Shun Da Street to see what had happened at the wine house she had worked so hard to establish, provoking such a furious outburst from the renowned Lady Gui Yue. 。“
The old madam actually really wanted to ask if this was something the two of you had conspired together. After all, everyone knows about the relationship between Junzhu Guiyue and Ye Wenyan. The two were very familiar with each other at the New Year's Eve Palace Banquet, and today after this incident happened, she couldn't tell if it was an accident or if someone had plotted against her. " 。She didn't dare ask because she wasn't sure herself. She knew what was going on at that tavern, and if Gu Yue County Princess found out, even if it was a conspiracy, she would have to take the blame. 。Ye Wen was still chuckling and talking: "Get up, Grandmother. You're the mistress of a first-rank general's mansion. Even if things outside collapse, you don't need to come out personally." 。But today, this matter is truly unavoidable. She is the Princess of Guiyue, and being bullied by businessmen in our Beiqi territory sets a bad precedent. If we don't handle this properly, it could escalate into an international diplomatic incident. Then Beiqi will go to war with Guiyue, and Grandma, would you even survive In the past, when your grandfather and father were alive, they were the ones who fought in wars. Now that they are gone, instead of showing restraint, you're bringing trouble upon Beiqi. Your awareness is simply too low! 。“Don’t be alarmist. Gui Yue Ren caused the Emperor to rage at the palace banquet, even killing the envoys. What face do they still have in Bei Qi” 。"A minister is a minister, and a princess is a princess. Can a subject be treated the same as their lord" She told the old madam, "The Emperor has always taken good care of the Princess, and these days she has been staying at Prince Chen's mansion. The palace even bestowed many fine things to ensure her comfort." 。It seems the court doesn't intend to immediately turn against Guiyue, and is doing its best to appease the princess's emotions. 。But I didn't expect that while the imperial court was busy appeasing, you were busy offending! What are you doing Aren't you causing trouble for the imperial court! Does Grandmother look down on the new emperor On purpose" "Silence!" The old lady glared angrily, "Don't talk nonsense. You're also a member of the Ye family. If this gets out, it will be a disaster. What good is it for you" The old lady had a lot of teachings she wanted to give Ye Wenyan, but seeing that the conversation was getting out of hand, Jun Tao quickly tugged at her sleeve. 。The elderly lady took a deep breath, trying her best to suppress her anger. Her tone softened considerably. 。"Wen Yan! We're all family, no matter how much we argue at home, once we're outside we have to stick together, or else people will laugh at us! 。Your grandmother didn't mean to scold you. She just hopes our family can be as harmonious as before, living together peacefully. She wants people outside to still regard the General's Mansion with the same respect they used to. 。"You're being quite wishful, Grandmother," Ye Wen said with a chuckle. "Inside the house, you relentlessly suppress our first branch, but outside, you want us to put on a show of harmony and prosperity There's no such thing as easy happiness! People revered your grandfather and my father because of their military achievements. If they still want to be respected in the future, then Grandmother, you must set an example. At least, whether inside or outside the house, your attitude towards your descendants should be the same." 。But Grandmother, can you do it”
The old matriarch remained silent, only to hear Ye Wen say again: "I know you always have a lot to say when you see me, and not a single nice word.” 。Similarly, I see you also have a lot to say, and not a single word is pleasant. 。So let's just stop pretending, we're exhausted. 。The mask has already been torn off, what's the point of talking about family and harmony 。"That tavern we're going to now, if my memory serves me right, should have belonged to my mother. How did it end up in the old madam's hands You stole so many things from us back then. I even held onto the deeds, demanding you return everything, yet this deed is missing. How do you explain that" The old madam's face shifted through a thousand expressions, but she remained silent. 。"If you don't want to explain, then just don't! Now that something has happened at the restaurant, I only hope that Grandmother, as the owner, can take full responsibility and not get there and find that things can't be resolved, and then blame us again." 。I would like to remind Grandmother once more: the emissary from Guiyue is different from a county princess. They wouldn't go to Northern Qi to demand laws for an emissary, but they would very well flip their faces at any moment for this county princess. 。After all, the father of Lady Zhao Lian is also a skilled warrior. You bullied his daughter, even if she's miles away, she will come to settle the score with you!At this point, the carriage stopped, and the coachman said from behind the curtain: "Old Madam, Fourth Sister, we've arrived at the tavern." 。" Night Wenyan came down first, and as soon as his feet touched the ground, he heard the sound of Feng Zhaolian's voice coming from the wine shop——“You Northern Qi people are too arrogant. You pass off inferior goods as good, and you even dare to poison this county princess” This sentence was also heard by the old lady. She was getting out of the carriage when she heard it, and her legs went numb, directly sliding down from the carriage…… What does "the more the better" mean Did this girl give silver The shopkeeper went home last night and hasn't shown his face yet. We don't even know if he's alive or dead. 。Even the attending doctor...
