Chapter 453: The Imperial Palace (1)
Ye Cheng took out a waist card, which the crown prince gave to the Ye family along with the dowry.
With this token, as long as it is not at night, you can enter and exit the palace at any time, and no one dares to stop you.
This is the crown prince's only token, and he gave it away like this, which shows his sincerity.
Ye Cheng had come in many times before, but there were too many houses here, and he would get lost, so in desperation, he could only ask the guard at the door to report and call someone to pick up the two of them, so as not to get lost when he got there.
After a while, a little eunuch hurriedly ran over, saluted the two men, and led them to the crown prince's palace with a smile.
Ye Tong's face was very gloomy, she had never been so unhappy.
"If you don't agree to this marriage, just refuse, what do you bring me to do? If you agree to this marriage, what do you bring me to do, I don't know if couples before marriage can't meet?"
Ye Tong's voice was very small, as if she was talking to herself, but she was saying it to Ye Cheng, she knew that Ye Cheng could hear and understand.
Ye Cheng sighed, feeling how well-behaved the little things were before, how could they be more and more rebellious now, and how could they dare to say anything.
And it was the first time he had seen a woman with a character like Ye Tong.
Innocent, kind, tenacious, knows how to advance and retreat, and knows right from wrong.
Ye Cheng was silent, silent all the way, and followed the little eunuch to the crown prince's bedroom.
Entering the lobby, the crown prince had already prepared dishes and chopsticks and invited the two to lunch together.
The crown prince has faded from the casual clothes at the time of the poetry appreciation conference, and at this time he is dressed gorgeously and wears a golden crown, which makes the yellow prince look very princely and imposing.
He looks very ordinary, the kind that no one will notice if he is placed in the crowd.
The crown prince saw Ye Cheng and his sister coming over, and hurriedly got up to greet him.
"Brother Ye, long time no see. The crown prince said happily.
Ye Cheng also returned the salute, but Ye Tong beside him did not move.
"Bold! I don't give a salute when I see the prince!
A voice came from behind the crown prince, full of energy.
"In the future, they will all be their own family, and any etiquette can be exempted. The crown prince turned and said with a smile.
I saw that behind the crown prince, there was a figure, graceful and luxurious, with a beautiful appearance.
Ye Cheng and Ye Tong both stared at it, and found that they were not familiar, it was not the woman Ye Cheng saved at the poetry appreciation conference before.
At that time, Ye Cheng also told Ye Tong that the one who went with the crown prince was a woman, and after thinking about it, it should be the crown princess of the crown prince.
But today, it doesn't look like it.
Especially those eyes, there is a world of difference.
The eyes on the poetry appreciation conference are very smart, and they can be compassionate when they listen to the poems.
And this person's eyes are very cold, making people feel a chill at a glance.
The crown prince introduced: "This is my wife. ”
The crown prince's introduction was casual, as if he didn't want to add too many titles to the woman.
Ye Cheng and Ye Tong didn't say anything, they just looked at her lightly.
Ye Cheng taught Ye Tong a long time ago, if others are polite to you, you have to remember to return it.
If someone is rude to you, you have to remember to return it.
Seeing Ye Cheng and Ye Tong's attitude, this woman's eyes moved slightly, and there was already anger in her eyes, waiting to erupt.
"If that's what you're going to marry...... In the people, this is called a concubine, right, I think I, as his wife in the main palace, need to discipline you well, what is called a qualified royal person. ”
This woman's cold words resounded in this hall, making the already cold and silent hall even colder.
"Can't you say two words less?" said the crown prince with a frown, he didn't want the woman to say that, but he couldn't make any moves, which made him very helpless.
Ye Cheng felt that these things were a little complicated, and said lightly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, since you are eating, we will retire first, there is nothing to do this time, I just want to see you, and now that the time is up, there is nothing to do." ”
After speaking, Ye Cheng turned around and walked out, and Ye Tong also walked up.
"After all, it is a mountain villager, and it is impossible to go to the palace. ”
After Ye Cheng and Ye Tong left, that cold voice sounded in this hall.
When the crown prince's concubine saw those two people, she didn't even have the desire to eat.
The crown prince looked at her lightly and walked away.
He has lived under the arrangement of others all his life, his father arranged the throne for him, his mother arranged the crown princess for him, his teacher taught him to read and write all his life, and now he has grown up, if he meets a woman he likes and wants to take a concubine, he has to arrange it with his own crown princess, which is not free for him.
At the poetry appreciation conference, he heard Ye Tong say a word, which made him unforgettable, and he still felt that the aftermath was lingering.
"It is better to die alone than to live without freedom. ”
This sentence was like a hammer to the crown prince, who was not deeply involved in the world, and it hit him hard in the heart.
Since then, he has known that there is another word in his world called freedom.
He felt that this woman was the woman he wanted to marry the most in his life.
Especially when he learned that the man next to Ye Tong was not her father-in-law, he confirmed this idea even more, it was like it was destined.
But no matter what you do, someone will arrange you.
……
……
Ye Cheng and the little thing left the palace and walked towards the gate of the palace, and the two of them were a little silent along the way.
The little thing kept secretly looking at Ye Cheng, she knew that Ye Cheng was a little angry, and even said that she was a little worried.
No one can understand Ye Cheng so well, Ye Cheng's words and deeds, every move, Ye Tong only needs to look at it to know.
Ye Cheng also felt that this was a very magical thing, but there were many things in this world that could not be explained clearly.
Suddenly, a maidservant came and stopped them.
"Princess, please. ”
The maidservant said four words very monotonously, then raised her head and turned away proudly, in her eyes, except for the people in the palace, she looked down on anyone, this is the superiority that the palace brings.
The eunuch who led the way for them was a little embarrassed, and said, "Since the princess is invited, the two of you should follow her, and I will wait for the two of you outside the princess's dormitory." ”
Ye Cheng and Ye Tong could only continue to walk towards another palace.
"Which princess is it?" Ye Cheng asked.
"Naturally, she is His Majesty the Emperor's favorite princess Pingrou. The little maid said without replying.
"Big brother, you said, at the poetry appreciation meeting that day, was the woman you saved Princess Pingrou?" the little thing tilted his head and looked up at Ye Cheng and said.
