Chapter 48: New Year (1)

The complete opposite of the joy of King An's Mansion and King Che's Mansion is General Ye's Mansion.

Since Ye Ziru was deposed, there has been a dark cloud in General Ye's mansion, and the people dare not breathe, for fear of being punished for saying the wrong thing or doing the wrong thing.

The Empress and General Ye's Mansion have used all their strength to search for Mr. Miaoshou's whereabouts on the rivers and lakes.

It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that the queen of Tianhe Kingdom bid 10,000 taels of gold, and asked Mr. Miaoshou to come forward to treat Ye Ziru. Regardless of whether it is cured well or not, ten thousand taels of gold will be paid. If Ye Ziru's roots can be cured, an additional 10,000 taels of gold will be added. If there is anyone in the rivers and lakes who can provide valuable information about the whereabouts of Mr. Miaoshou, the queen is willing to pay a hundred taels of silver as a reward.

For a time, people from all walks of life were looking for Mr. Miaoshou's traces. However, Mr. Miaoshou is elusive, and most of the people on the rivers and lakes have never even seen Mr. Miaoshou's appearance, so where can they find Mr. Miaoshou?!

Chu Yunxi listened to Xiaoqing's report in the Yuelai Inn and sneered.

The queen of Tianhe is really naΓ―ve, Ye Ziru tried to defile Chu Yunxi's most precious Ling Xi disciple, how could Chu Yunxi come forward to treat Ye Ziru? What is 10,000 taels of gold, the last thing he lacks in Yunxizhuang is silver.

The Empress and the people of General Ye's Mansion must never have dreamed that they had searched through the three kingdoms of Tianhe, Shengning, and Jun'an, and could not find the mysterious Mr. Miaoshou was in the capital of Tianhe Country at this time, and it was Ye Lingxi's master Chu Yunxi.

The poor Ye family still has illusions, counting on finding Mr. Miaoshou to restore Ye Ziru's ability to continue the Ye family's incense!

King An's mansion seems to always maintain the most cheerful and warm atmosphere, a naughty Murong Cheng'an, plus a naughty Ye Lingxi. The two laughed and played during the day, hugged each other and slept at night, and their relationship quickly warmed up. Ye Lingxi liked Murong Cheng'an's cute and well-behaved appearance more and more, and Murong Chengan became more and more greedy for Ye Lingxi's favor for him.

During the period approaching the New Year, Ye Lingxi's days can be described as leisurely, sometimes learning martial arts with Chu Yunxi, and sometimes learning embroidery with Xiaolian. It's just that I don't know why, Murong Cheng'an was relatively quiet during this time, often sitting quietly beside Ye Lingxi and watching her embroidery, without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking, as if he had something on his mind.

"What is Xiao An'an thinking?"

Ye Lingxi was concentrating on embroidering the red cloth on his hand while caring about Murong Cheng'an.

"Lady, what will happen to you if someone cheats on you?"

In fact, Murong Chengan did have something on her mind, and she didn't know what threat the queen had encountered, so that her movements gradually accelerated, and she had reached the point where she had to send an arrow. If it goes on like this, it won't take two years, and maybe soon after this New Year, the queen will be impatient. In other words, the time has come for him to lie dormant for many years and fight back.

Murong Chengan was looking forward to that day, and he was suddenly a little afraid of that day. Ye Lingxi once said that he was not satisfied with his identity. So, when he becomes famous, will she be very satisfied with her? If she was happy, would she look at him differently? In Murong Chengan's heart, Ye Lingxi is indeed worthy of the best and the most noble.

However, after all, pretending to be stupid and deceiving Ye Lingxi for such a long time, Murong Cheng was still a little vain.

"Well...... It depends. If it is a malicious deception, I will definitely not easily spare the person who deceived me, and I will make him pay for what he has done! But if it's a white lie...... Then let's analyze the specific problems in detail! ”

Ye Lingxi concentrated on the embroidery in his hand, and did not think much about Murong Chengan's problem.

"How do you analyze it?"

"Specific...... For example, if there is something unspeakable, or it involves other people's privacy, or the person who lied to me had to lie to me in order not to make me sad, these situations are understandable. ”

"Then will you forgive the person who deceived you because of the unspeakable secret?"

Ye Lingxi stopped the embroidery movement, tilted his head and thought for a while before replying: "It should be, I am such an easy-going person!" ”

After speaking, Ye Lingxi continued to immerse herself in the embroidery in her hand. Murong Cheng'an licked his lips and swallowed again.

"Lady, actually, ......"

"Ahh

Ye Lingxi was distracted to answer Murong Cheng'an's question, and his already unskilled embroidery skills became even weaker, and if he was not careful, he was actually pierced by an embroidery needle on the pad of his right index finger. Although the wound was very small and did not leave a lot of blood, the ten fingers were connected to the heart, and the pain was still extremely strong. Ye Lingxi was already very afraid of pain, and after this needle, the pain was so painful that tears were about to come out.

Murong Cheng'an's confession, which had been brewing for a long time, was interrupted again, and he was about to suffocate his internal injuries.

Ye Lingxi's screams attracted Xiaolian, and Xiaolian hurriedly took the embroidery in Ye Lingxi's hand.

"Princess, why don't Xiaolian help you embroider! Xiaolian is embroidered, and the princess will take it to Xiao Shizi again, which is also a piece of the princess's heart. ”

Xiaolian felt sorry for Ye Lingxi, and she couldn't bear to continue to embroider hard. But Ye Lingxi insisted on embroidering this gift himself. Rubbing his fingers, Ye Lingxi picked up the red cloth and continued to embroider. Xiaolian had no choice but to continue to guide on the side.

Murong Cheng'an, who was suffocated from internal injuries, silently withdrew from the room.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's the New Year. On the day of the New Year, the emperor held a banquet in the palace, and ministers above the fourth rank were also eligible to bring their families to the palace for a banquet. Six people came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, namely the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister's wife, Aunt Lan, Ye Zhuangfei, Ye Yuzhu and Ye Yuxiang.

The emperor, the queen, and the queen mother sat on the main seat of the hall, and the prince, King An, King Che and a number of high-ranking concubines were lined up in order, and then there were ministers.

No matter what mood everyone present was in their hearts, they all showed a beaming look on the surface. After all, it is the new year, and no one dares to show any unpleasant emotions, so as not to displease the people in high places.

Of the people present, I'm afraid that only Ye Lingxi is really celebrating the New Year's Festival! After all, eating delicious food and watching beauties dance, because of Murong Chengan's stupidity, no one came forward to toast and disturb him, Ye Lingxi felt very comfortable.

Murong Cheng'an and Ye Lingxi were feasting on the food on the table on the surface, but in fact, they secretly observed the performance of everyone in the hall, no matter who had any small actions in private, they couldn't escape Murong Cheng'an's eyes. Among them, Aunt Lan of the Prime Minister's Mansion attracted Murong Cheng'an's attention.

If Murong Chengan is not mistaken, Aunt Lan should have attended a banquet in the palace for the first time. As a concubine, Aunt Lan was not qualified to participate in the palace banquet, but I don't know why the prime minister brought her this time. If it is said that because of Ye Yuzhen's death, the personnel of the Prime Minister's Mansion are relatively thin, it can also be explained. However, what attracted Murong Chengan's attention was not that Aunt Lan could enter the palace to participate in the banquet as a concubine, but that Aunt Lan herself.

On the day he returned from the wedding, Murong Chengan's attention was all attracted by the domineering Ye Lingxi, and he did not observe other people in the Prime Minister's Mansion. It's just a concubine of the prime minister, and he doesn't have any sense of existence. However, when he saw him in the palace today, Murong Chengan immediately felt that Aunt Lan was unusual.

Although Aunt Lan was humble and cowardly on the surface, Murong Cheng'an could clearly feel that there was a cold aura on Aunt Lan's body, which made people feel frightened, and this kind of aura was definitely not something that an ordinary official concubine would have! An Aunt Mei is already mysterious, and now there is another Aunt Lan who is so treacherous, and the prime minister's concubines are all so not simple, what cards is still hidden in this prime minister? !

There is also the most mysterious Ye Lingxi...... Murong Cheng'an prayed secretly while eating the pastries that Ye Lingxi fed to his mouth.

Xi'er ...... You will not be my enemy...... I prefer to believe that you are an unfavored concubine of the Prime Minister, so I was drugged by the Prime Minister and lost her memory and married me......

Now that there is tension in the court, there are still so many secrets hidden in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which makes Murong Cheng feel uneasy. It seems that the secrets in the Prime Minister's Mansion must be clarified as soon as possible!

At the banquet, the singing and dancing continued, and everyone pushed the cups and changed the lamps. At this time, Murong Lang got up and left the hall alone, without calling the eunuch to follow, it looked like he was going to the toilet.

Immediately after, Aunt Lan also got up and left the hall.

Originally, Murong Lang got up and left, which did not arouse Murong Chengan's doubts, but Aunt Lan actually left the hall after him! If this is just a coincidence, I am afraid it is difficult to justify.

Although Murong Chengan wanted to go out to find out the situation, reason told him that at this moment, he should stand still and wait and see what happened.

Murong Lang did go to the latrine, he walked to the latrine alone, and after releasing his suffocating body, he comfortably planned to return to the hall the same way. Unexpectedly, just when he walked out of the door of the latrine, the moment he looked up, he suddenly saw a pair of breathtaking eyes. Those eyes were like a whirlpool, and he was drowning in them in an instant.

Murong Lang only felt as if he had fallen into a ball of cotton, and the soft touch around him made him extremely relaxed, as if all his troubles had disappeared. The striking eyes blurred and were replaced by a familiar face.

Murong Lang thought about it carefully, it was the face of Ye Yuzhen's third sister, Ye Yuxiang. Ye Yuxiang was born much more beautiful than Ye Yuzhen, but unfortunately she is a concubine. When choosing a concubine for him, the queen chose her daughter Ye Yuzhen, which made Murong Lang depressed for a long time. But the queen comforted him and said that when he won the throne, any kind of beauty could be found for him.

The two concubines of the Prime Minister's Mansion are ugly, but one of them is more beautiful than the other. Especially Ye Lingxi, the number one beauty in the capital, was picked up by a fool, which made Murong Lang very depressed. Now the queen has privately ordered that no one is allowed to provoke Ye Lingxi. Murong Lang could only watch dryly.

Now that Ye Yuxiang is still unmarried, Murong Lang covets Ye Yuxiang's beauty very much, and Ye Yuxiang in front of him happened to say something to him with a smile. Murong Lang listened carefully, but he couldn't hear what Ye Yuxiang said.
