Chapter 302: Exploring the Wind
"Grievance?" Dugushuang muttered, glanced at the little palace maid, already had a calculation in her heart, and said gloomily, "We as palace maids should serve the master, if the master is unhappy, it is common to be beaten and scolded, so why should we be wronged."

After speaking, Dugushuang sighed faintly.
"Sister, I have wronged you, in fact, ......" The little palace maid shook her head helplessly.
Dugushuang interrupted her in time, "Okay, I should take the things back, otherwise I will be scolded again." We'll talk about that later. β
After speaking, Dugushuang broke free of her hand and walked out.
"Sister." The little palace maid called out and stomped her feet depressedly.
Then, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he looked at Dugushuang's back and sneered.

"General, Prime Minister Yuan just sent someone to spread the word, saying that he wants you to go to Yuanfu."
"Father-in-law?" Ye Lan frowned, and then responded, "Uncle Ye, help me prepare a carriage, I'll go to the Yuan Mansion later." β
"Yes." Steward Ye answered the call and went down to arrange things.
"Father-in-law." Ye Lan arched his hand.
Prime Minister Yuan, who was standing in the room, turned around and smiled, "Lan'er, you are here, you are all your own family, you don't have to be so polite." β
Ye Lan raised his head and responded, "Yes." β
"Have you had dinner? Uncle Yuan, go see if the meal in the kitchen is ready? Yuan Cheng instructed the butler of the Yuan Mansion next to him.
"Yes." Steward Yuan glanced at Ye Lan, nodded, and went down with a smile.
"Come, come over here and sit down first, what are you doing there." Prime Minister Yuan greeted with a smile and sat down on the chair.
Ye Lan walked over and sat down next to him.
Prime Minister Yuan was about to pour tea, Ye Lan took the teapot and said, "Let Lan'er come." β
Prime Minister Yuan did not refuse, stroked his beard, and looked at him with a smile.
"Father-in-law, please drink tea." Ye Lan respectfully handed over a cup of tea.
Prime Minister Yuan Cheng took it, just put the tea to his mouth, put it down again, and asked, "I heard that you have been packing up your things these days, but you are going to go far away?" β
Ye Lan was slightly stunned for a while, and responded: "Father-in-law, the child is indeed going to go on a long trip, and he has been packing up his things in the house for the past few days, and he hasn't had time to tell his father-in-law." The emperor assigned some tasks to the child, and the child had to go out for about a month. β
"A month." Prime Minister Yuan frowned slightly, looked at Ye Lan, and then said with a smile, "Since it is a task assigned by the emperor, it is appropriate to go out, but I don't know where you are going this time." β
"The child is going to the Yueling area this time." Ye Lan bowed his head lightly.
A strange look appeared on Prime Minister Yuan's face, and he was a little surprised, "Yueling area? β
"Father-in-law, I heard that you have been feeling unwell again recently, are you feeling better now?" Ye Lan asked with concern, and successfully changed the topic in one sentence.
Prime Minister Yuan was like a mirror in his heart, knowing that Ye Lan didn't want to talk about this matter more, so he didn't want to ask more, so he responded: "It's all an old disease, and it will recur for a few days every winter, but after taking the medicine prescribed by Chang Taiyi, it's almost better." Do not worry. β
"That's good, the child has asked people to find some medicine from outside these days, and I heard that it is especially useful for treating wind and cold. It has been handed over to the people of the Yuan Mansion, and the father-in-law has time to give it a try. β
Prime Minister Yuan Cheng nagged: "I'm tired of worrying about you." Are you all ready? It's cold now, but don't miss something. Although it is your honor that the emperor takes a fancy to you, after all, you are going far away, and you can't wronged yourself. β
After saying that, he sighed again and again.
"What's wrong with my father-in-law today? It looks like there's something on the mind. Ye Lan noticed Prime Minister Yuan's abnormality, raised his eyebrows, and asked worriedly.
"Hey." Prime Minister Yuan stroked his beard again, and sighed, "You are a worry-free person, but you don't need me to worry about you." Just seeing you, I think of the other children who don't make it. Finally, a few years ago, Tianyi High School, thanks to the emperor's favor, went to the Yueling area to do the county order, but now it is good, the Yueling area was originally a rich place, and I don't know what happened in the past two years, there will be people fleeing everywhere. β
"Originally, Tianyi was the most reassuring child for me, but now it is ...... Hey, it's really more worry-free than the other. If I let the emperor know that Tianyi is not properly governed, I can't hang up my old face, and I really have no shame to face the emperor. The more Prime Minister Yuan said, the more depressed his face became, showing the helplessness of a father.
Ye Lan comforted loudly: "Father-in-law doesn't have to worry, the eldest brother is young and promising, and he has managed properly, and he has already made many political achievements at a young age, and these emperors see it in their eyes." Although there are a large number of displaced people in the Yueling area, it is also caused by natural disasters, and I believe that the eldest brother will be able to settle those displaced people with some time. β
"I hope so. I have been sleeping unsteadily these days, and if the displaced people do not solve the problem, it will not only implicate Tianyi, but also make the people complain, which is not good for the country and the people. β
As he spoke, Prime Minister Yuan suddenly raised his head and said, "By the way, Lan'er, aren't you just going to the Yueling area?" If you see Tianyi, help your father give him a few words, and let him think of solving the affairs of the homeless people. β
"Father-in-law, don't worry, if Lan'er sees the eldest brother, she will tell him." Ye Lan replied with a light smile.
Prime Minister Yuan patted Ye Lan's shoulder with relief: "I'm sorry for you, among these children, you are the only one who doesn't need to worry about your father." Although you are not your father's biological child, in your father's heart, you and Tianyi are the same. β
As soon as the words fell, Steward Yuan walked in and replied, "Master, the meal is ready, you and the third prince should move to the main house." β
Although Ye Lan was adopted by Prime Minister Yuan, Prime Minister Yuan has always regarded him as his own, and he has been living in Yuanfu until he was sixteen years old, and the descendants of Yuanfu have long regarded him as the son of Yuanfu, because he is the third in age, and everyone is used to calling him the third son. Even if he now goes to live in the mansion rewarded by Emperor Yan, he is still the third son of the Yuan Mansion in the eyes of the people of the Yuan Mansion.
Prime Minister Yuan stood up and said with a smile: "Look at me, I haven't seen you for many days, and when I saw you, I couldn't help but nag a few more words, and I forgot to eat." Now that the meal is ready, come with me, for the two of us haven't eaten together for a long time. β
"Yes." Ye Lan also stood up and did not refuse.
In the evening, after the meal, Ye Lan and Prime Minister Yuan exchanged a few words and prepared to leave the Yuan Mansion.
"Third brother, are you leaving?" A flirtatious voice sounded behind Ye Lan.
Ye Lan looked back and saw that the person who came was dressed in green clothes, with a flirtatious smile on his face, and he looked like a hanger, smiling a little obscenely.
He is the second child of Prime Minister Yuan, Yuan Tianyun.
"Second brother." Ye Lan arched his hand expressionlessly, with a hint of alienation in his respect.
