Ye Qiu and Ye Heng's backs walked away, Ye Ling and Ye Ming's white and tender little faces also became extremely lost, Lin Jingxian secretly hated in her heart, but there was nothing she could do.

"Mother, I don't want to go to my uncle's place to study, I want to be with my brother." Ye Ming coquettishly pleaded to Lin Jingxian.

"Ming'er is good." She lovingly hugged the two children into her arms, "Your eldest brother is older than you, you can't study together, everyone lives in the house, and there will be a lot of time to see each other in the future." ”

She actually wished that her children and Ye Heng would draw a line, but she was reluctant to make them sad and disappointed, so she could only say so.

After comforting her two children and returning to Luoxia Courtyard, she began to write letters to people, so that the people in the capital knew that she was back.

When Xia Yixiao read the letter, the seventh prince Ye Kai happened to be on the side, and he said in surprise: "The fifth sister-in-law is finally willing to come back?" She is really strange, even if she is recuperating, she can't go for three years without returning, no wonder the fifth brother hasn't mentioned her in the past two years. ”

"The fifth brother doesn't like the fifth sister-in-law?" Xia Yixiao asked.

"How strange! Although the fifth sister-in-law is beautiful and virtuous, but the fifth brother is too ruthless, the fifth brother told me that he has been to the hot spring village several times, but every time the fifth sister-in-law is sick and can't serve him, even the child does not let the fifth brother see. Ye Kai sneered, feeling that Lin Jingxian was relying on some of her talents to be pretentious.

How good is the fifth brother, how much has he done for Lin Jingxian? It's just that she looks the most considerate on the outside, but in fact she is cold, if it weren't for the fifth brother who was drunk and said it nonsense, he wouldn't know that his fifth brother hadn't opened meat for four years, a dignified prince, is this like a word?

"It's no wonder," Xia Yixiao shook her head.

"What? What do you seem to know? ”

"It's not that I know anything, it's just some speculation, women's intuition is the most sensitive, when the fifth sister-in-law didn't go to the hot spring Zhuangzi, I vaguely felt that the fifth sister-in-law didn't seem to be as considerate as the rumored ones, and now the fifth brother can let go, which is also a good thing."

"Put down a fart." Ye Kai was indignant, "How many beauties have I given to the fifth brother, but I haven't seen him enjoy one!" ”

"Beauty?" Xia Yixiao raised her eyebrows and looked at him, "Or did you send it?" Where did you get the beauty to give away? How did I not know? ”

Ye Kai intuitively sensed the danger, and immediately licked his face and smiled: "It's all sent by the people below, don't worry, I haven't touched any of them, and I've sent them out again." ”

Xia Yixiao frowned when she heard this: "In the future, you will touch these things less, and those girls will be pitiful." ”

"Lady, you don't pity them, most of them are voluntary, and some officialdom contacts, sometimes you can't accept them." Ye Kai explained.

"You are the dignified Seventh Prince, and others dare to force you?"

"But can we refuse what the prince sent?"

"Prince?" Xia Yixiao was taken aback, "Why did he do all this?" ”

"What else? Isn't that the stand-in about to threaten him? Ye Kai pouted, "The mother concubine said that there must be a master around Concubine Hui, and her words and deeds are exactly the same as those of the first queen." ”

"She's so bold? Aren't you afraid that your father will dislike her? ”

"Disgusted?" Ye Kai sneered, "Now my father treats her like a baby!" Determined that she is the reincarnation of the first queen, why do you think the second brother of the crown prince has been getting bigger and bigger recently? This is in a hurry, when the fifteenth brother grows up, I really don't know what the future will be. ”

Xia Yixiao was also embarrassed when she heard this, thinking that the crown prince's scenery at the beginning was that the other princes together could not overshadow his brilliance, but now he was made miserable by a civilian woman who appeared out of thin air, it is really impermanent.

"But no matter how much my father likes Concubine Hui, she also occupies the light of the first queen, after all, the prince is the son of the first queen, and Concubine Hui should not be able to shake his status."

"It's not up to us to shake it or not, anyway, it's only been three years, the second brother of the prince is already panicking, and the father looks young and strong, who knows what else Concubine Hui will do?"

Ye Kai's rational analysis was completely free of the ignorance he usually had when he played with Ye Qiu: "After all, the first queen is dead, and now it is Concubine Hui who is with her father, although she is a stand-in for a while, but after being favored for a long time, my father must have a sincere heart in his heart, how should he choose when the time comes?" ”

"You're right." Xia Yixiao nodded when she heard this, "But Concubine Hui is helpless, who do you say is helping her behind her back?" ”

This time, Ye Kai also made a difficulty, and shook his head silently.

"I'm just poor queen mother, when the queen was there, she was not favored, and finally got out of it, and there was another concubine, she has been closed for two months, and I heard that even the hospital is very perfunctory."

"How dare they be so bold?"

"Haven't people in the palace always been like this? has always stepped on the low and praised the high, the eldest prince went to the border, and Hui Guifei is a favorite, who dares to touch Hui Guifei's moldy head? I heard that the military department and the household department have refuted the eldest brother's distribution of military funds in the past two days, and I don't know if the eldest brother can survive this bitter cold weather. Ye Kai said worriedly.

Xia Yixiao's father is a general, and he can't listen to the suffering of the soldiers the most, so he was furious when he heard this: "If you want to win a big battle, and you refuse to give military funds, how can there be such a cheap thing?" ”

Ye Kai's eyebrows were full of exhaustion: "But what can I do?" When the eldest brother re-led the army, his father was reluctant in every way, and the second brother of the prince was also afraid of the eldest brother, and now there is another concubine Hui who is ready to move on the queen's position, who dares to speak for the eldest brother at this time? ”

"Really, I want to curse!" Xia Yixiao was so angry that she couldn't wait to rush out and beat people now.

"Regardless of whether the fifth sister-in-law is sincere to the fifth brother or not, she has not returned to the capital for three years, she will definitely go to the palace to greet the queen mother, and when the time comes, we will go together and comfort the queen mother, the eldest brother, I will think of some way."

"Okay, I got it."

The purpose of Lin Jingxian's letter to Xia Yixiao here is to invite her to go to the palace to greet the queen and Concubine Hui, she was not in the capital when Concubine Hui was favored, she really didn't know how to deal with it, and it was best to have Xia Yixiao by her side.

"Fifth sister-in-law, why didn't you bring Ling'er and Ming'er?" At the gate of the palace, Xia Yixiao hugged her son and smiled at Lin Jingxian.

Lin Jingxian looked at the radiant Xia Yixiao, and then thought of the clothes and jewelry she had selected for a long time before going out this morning, and felt a little more indignant in her heart.

Obviously, Ye Qiu is the richest of the princes, but Xia Yixiao's clothes are more luxurious than her.

However, she herself forgot that Ye Qiu had given her supreme favor in the past, which she didn't want.

"Ling'er and Ming'er's illness is just right, so don't be sick and give it to the queen mother." Lin Jingxian smiled lightly, but she was afraid that the two children would be found to be abnormal if they brought it out, after all, not everyone is as easy to fool as Ye Qiu.
