Headache, head ache. Ye Xiaoyan woke up and felt a tearing pain in her head.

She closed her eyes and frowned, remembering last night's party.

She went abroad to participate in international medical support for a year in a war-torn area. Just returned to China, and her friends picked up the wind and washed the dust for her. Eating, drinking, KTV, Ye Xiaoyan drank too much, and she didn't know how to go home. When she woke up, she wondered if she had drunk fake wine last night. Why does my head hurt so much.

Ye Xiaoyan closed her eyes and thought, raising her hand to rub her temples. But when his hand was raised, it touched his head as if there was some ornament. She touched it, as if it was Zhu Hai.

Hey? Ye Xiaoyan wondered, how could she have such a thing on her head? I touched it again, and my hair seemed to be coiled up in some kind of hairstyle, full of hairpins.

She opened her eyes in surprise to find herself lying on a delicately carved wooden bed. The red brocade quilt, the red curtain, the furniture in the house, antique. On a high desk, a pair of arm-thick red candles are lit, and the word "Xi" is pasted on the wall.

Is this a wedding room?

Ye Xiaoyan got up from the bed and wanted to get off the ground, but she felt weak.

Where is this? What's the situation? Could it be that those "fox friends and dog friends" knew that she "hated to marry" and engaged in pranks?

Just as he was thinking, the door opened, and a little maid in ancient costume pushed the door in.

The little maid saw that Ye Xiaoyan had woken up, and hurriedly turned around and ran out, shouting: "The princess is awake!" The princess is awake! ”

"Princess?" Ye Xiaoyan squinted, full of suspicion.

After a while, there was the sound of wooden wheels rolling.

The little maid opened the curtain, and a wooden wheelchair cart pushed in.

In a wheelchair, a young man of twenty-one or twelve years old sits. Dressed in a red wedding dress, with handsome eyebrows and well-defined silhouettes.

At this time, the handsome man's face was neither happy nor angry, and there was no expression.

Ye Xiaoyan looked at the man in front of her, and then looked down at the red wedding dress on her body.

Could it be that they are a couple?

Stunned for a moment. Ye Xiaoyan felt: She hasn't woken up yet!

Thinking about it, she lay down again and closed her eyes. Keep sleeping.

The maid who came in saw that the princess was lying back again, looking at each other, not knowing what to do.

At this time, the man in the wheelchair waved his hand and ordered them to go down. The two of them were the only ones left in the room.

"You're not Ye Wanting?" The man spoke slowly, his tone calm, questioning, but sure.

Ye Xiaoyan, who was originally going to sleep and then sleep back to reality, heard the man speak, sat up slowly, and replied, "No, I'm Ye Xiaoyan." ”

The man asked, "Did you do this?" Or is it the arrangement of the Ye family? ”

Ye Xiaoyan frowned, not understanding what he was talking about.

Seeing that Ye Xiaoyan didn't speak, the man continued: "Aren't you afraid of committing the crime of defrauding the king?" ”

Bully?

Ye Xiaoyan asked puzzledly, "What did I do?" ”

"For, sister, generation, marry." A few words slowly came out of the man's mouth.

"What?" Ye Xiaoyan was surprised.

was surprised for a moment, and then she couldn't help but laugh again: she had always wanted to find a man to marry, but she didn't expect to dream of such a scene as "marrying for her sister".

Ye Xiaoyan lowered her head and smiled.

The man looked at her oddly and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Ye Xiaoyan raised her head and asked him with a smile, "Am I married to you?" ”

The man nodded slightly.

Ye Xiaoyan continued: "Which sister did I marry you instead?" ”

The man frowned.

After thinking about it, the man shouted outside the door:

"Bring in Spring Peach!"

After a while, two grandmothers came in with a little maid.

The maid Chun Tao, as soon as she came in, knelt beside Ye Xiaoyan's bed, whining and crying, and kept kowtowing.

"Second Miss, save the slave! The slave doesn't know anything! ”

Ye Xiaoyan looked at the little maid in front of her. I saw her in a pink dress, and it could be seen from her dress that this was a decent maid.

Ye Xiaoyan twisted her eyebrows and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Chun Tao's crying stopped abruptly, and she looked up in disbelief: "Second Miss, you, what's wrong with you?" ”

Ye Xiaoyan still wrinkled her eyebrows and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Chun Tao was so frightened that she couldn't speak.

Four years ago, Ye Wanting, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, made a marriage contract with the third prince Nangong You, and the next year Nangong You was ordered to go to the north to quell the rebellion in the Northern Regions.

After two years, the rebellion in the Northern Regions was put down. Nangong Youyou returned to Beijing, and on the way he was seriously injured when he was seriously injured when he fell from a mountain boulder, but his legs could no longer stand up and became a cripple.

The emperor appeased the three princes, named Nangong You as the first-class prince "King Xuan", and urged the Prime Minister's Mansion to marry his daughter as soon as possible.

If Nangong You is intact, Ye Wanting will also marry, after all, "King Xuan" is a first-class prince with a noble status. However, Nangong is crippled, I heard that it is not humane, even if she has the status of a prince and princess, but she has no future, Ye Wanting is unwilling to marry.

Prime Minister Ye Cheng drew from the camp. dedicated her sister to the emperor back then, and now she has become a concubine. When I attached myself to the three princes, I saw that the three princes were deeply loved by the emperor, and it was hard to say that they would be established as princes in the future. But now, the third prince is crippled, and it is impossible to be the crown prince. Prime Minister Ye didn't want to marry Ye Wanting, the only eldest daughter of the Ye family, to a wasted person.

However, this was a royal marriage contract, and he did not dare to regret the marriage. So, he ran to the emperor and cried, saying that his second daughter had admired the third prince since she was a child, and begged to marry her sister instead, otherwise the second daughter would die with her will, and asked the emperor to see that her daughter was infatuated and begged the emperor to fulfill it.

The emperor was moved by Ye Cheng's love for his daughter, but he was also very hesitant, after all, it was the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion who was originally married, and now he wants to marry the second daughter, he doesn't care, as long as he is worried about Nangong's tryst.

At this time, the concubine Niangniang persuaded her, and finally the emperor acquiesced. As long as King Xuan accepts it.

So, Prime Minister Ye Cheng returned home and arranged for his second daughter Ye Wanyan to marry on behalf of his sister.

It is said that the second young lady Ye Wanyan has no status in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she is not favored by Prime Minister Ye. First, her mother, Liu, was from a humble background and had a beautiful appearance, but she had no family background. Second, Ye Wanyan has a cowardly personality, and when she sees her father, she is like a mouse seeing a cat, and Prime Minister Ye Cheng doesn't like her character very much, so she can't talk about pampering.

Prime Minister Ye returned to the mansion and immediately promoted the Liu family from a concubine to a second wife. Her daughter wants to marry the prince, so the identity of the biological mother can't be too low.

When Liu learned that he was raised to be a wife for this reason, he cried and begged the lord not to send his daughter into the fire pit.

Where would Prime Minister Ye listen to her crying and begging, and ordered someone to lock up the Liu family, and was afraid that Ye Wanyan would make trouble when the time came, so before she got married, she asked someone to feed her a lot of drugs.

Chun Tao was originally the personal maid of the eldest lady Ye Wanting, in order to make the Xuanwang Mansion not find out so quickly that the bride was not Ye Wanting, Prime Minister Ye Cheng ordered Chun Tao to marry with Ye Wanyan. In this way, when the time comes, they have already visited the church and entered the cave room, and they want to send people back again, and they can not agree.

Chun Tao knows all these things.
