At this moment, the eunuch Qi Rong in the palace sat on the chair in the hall of the Marquis of Jinyang, crossed Erlang's legs, tasted famous tea in his mouth, and chatted with the Hou Ye and his wife.

"Master Hou, the tea in our stomach is full, why hasn't this eldest lady come back yet?"

"It's almost there," Hou Ye laughed alongside. "That girl is very naughty, she can't stay in the house, maybe she went out to visit the temple fair......"

"Visiting a temple fair?"

"Yes, yes," Wen interjected, "Father-in-law doesn't know, our family is cute and lively, doesn't like restraint, and likes free days......"

Hou Ye couldn't help but touch his wife's arm, and Wen realized that he was speechless and hurriedly stopped.

Gonggong Qi touched his chin and said with a meaningful smile: "Our family is also in a hurry to enter the palace after announcing the decree to the emperor and Niangniang, don't blame Mrs. Hou."

"Don't dare, don't dare," Hou Ye smiled anxiously at the door. I thought, why haven't these two siblings come back?

Just when Father-in-law Qi was waiting impatiently, a subordinate hurriedly rushed in.

"Master, madam, the eldest prince and the eldest lady are back......"

Hou Ye was overjoyed and got up suddenly. "Hurry, hurry, hurry up and take the incense case!"

"Wait—" A soft voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

As soon as the words fell, two figures appeared at the door. One person is tall and thin, handsome and elegant, the eldest son Ye Chengxuan, and the other is a beautiful girl, with red clothes and ribbons, graceful and graceful, born with bright eyes and bright teeth, but her demeanor is gentle, her eyebrows are slightly frowned, and there is an indescribable morbid beauty in her demeanor. It was Ye Mengmeng, the eldest lady of the Ye family.

The Hou Ye and his wife were full of joy, and they didn't pay close attention to their daughter's expression for a while, and Wen ran over happily to hold her daughter's hand.

"Mengmeng, are you back? Now it's okay, hurry up and prepare to receive the order, the emperor agrees that you will marry into the East Palace. ”

"Mother, don't worry, listen to me first......"

Ye Mengmeng was about to speak, but Father-in-law Qi walked over and looked her up and down.

"You're the eldest lady?"

Ye Mengmeng stood still, first stroked his chest, and then blessed his father-in-law Qi, and said softly: "Let my father-in-law wait for a long time, Mengmeng's body has been slightly ill in the past two days, so the carriage drove slowly...... I hope my father-in-law forgive me! ”

As soon as she heard that her daughter was sick, Wen suddenly became nervous, pulled her daughter up and down, left and right, and asked worriedly: "Daughter, what's wrong?" What's uncomfortable? ”

"Mother, I ......"

Her throat was itchy for a while, and before she could answer her mother's words, Ye Mengmeng hurriedly covered her mouth with a brocade and lowered her head and coughed violently.

Gonggong Qi frowned slightly, and subconsciously took a few steps back.

Wen patted her daughter on the back while ordering the girl to pour tea, and asked worriedly, "Why do you cough so badly?" Is it cold? I'll just say that you can't go to the countryside when it's cold, you don't believe it......"

Hou Ye coughed a few times at the right time, and Wen paused.

Hou Ye lowered his head and asked the son next to him, "What's wrong with your sister?" ”

Ye Chengxuan was also confused, shook his head and said, "I don't know, she was fine when she came out." ”

Ye Mengmeng finally stopped coughing, and when she looked up again, her face was already red, and a trace of sweat was soaked on her forehead. took the hot tea handed over by Yundie and drank two sips to get better.

Father-in-law Qi was a little surprised, carefully examined her face, and asked cautiously: "Ouch, the eldest lady's face doesn't look very good, could it be that she really has a cold?" ”

Ye Mengmeng sighed and said: "I don't know if it's cold, anyway, it's an itchy throat, I want to cough, and I can't stop coughing, and I can't stop coughing, my intestines, liver, stomach and lungs have to be pulled out, it's very uncomfortable......"

Wen asked worriedly, "How long have you been coughing like this?" ”

"It's been four or five days, right?"

"Has the eldest lady seen the doctor?" Father-in-law Qi hurriedly asked.

"No, isn't it just a little problem, where is the need to see a doctor?" As soon as the words fell, Ye Mengmeng couldn't help but pick up Jinpa again and cover her mouth and coughed violently, she really coughed so much that she only looked dumbfounded at the people in the hall.

Gonggong Qi rolled his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Hou Ye and Wen were so anxious that their hearts were on fire. At this juncture, Meng Meng can't get sick......

Finally stopped coughing, Ye Mengmeng gasped and raised her head, handed the Jinpa to the girl next to her, Yundie, and then smiled weakly at everyone.

"I'm sorry Father-in-law Qi, I'm sick like a mountain, and I don't have the strength to do it, it seems that I really have to go back to the house to rest and rest......" After speaking, he said goodbye to Father-in-law Qi, turned around and staggered away.

"Slow, daughter, take the holy decree and leave......" Wen was busy grabbing his daughter, but who knew that her daughter was like a ghost, floating out of the hall lightly, and she couldn't even hear the sound of footsteps. Wen was stunned.

Yun Die secretly unfolded the Jinpa and glanced at it, and suddenly it was like thunder, and her eyes were straight.

Wen sensed that something was wrong with the girl and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" ”

Yun Die held back her tears and shook her head in disguise: "No, it's nothing ......"

It's nothing? Wen snatched the Jinpa, unfolded it, and suddenly petrified, his eyes stared straight at the handkerchief, as if he had been pointed.

Hou Ye and Ye Chengxuan, father and son, also felt strange, and when they looked over, they were immediately as stupid as Wen.

Gonggong Qi was suspicious, stretched his neck to look over, but saw that there were dots of blood on the snow-white brocade handkerchief......

He chuckled in his heart, this Miss Ye saw that she was not lightly ill, and she actually coughed up blood?

His mind turned, and he immediately thought of something, and his eyes widened at once, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes.

My God, this Miss Ye can't be ...... It won't be ......

He bounced back a few steps like a grasshopper and stammered, "Master Hou, let's ...... Our family still wants to go back to the palace, so let's ...... first Say goodbye first......" After speaking, he didn't wait for the Hou Ye and his wife to respond, turned around and fled.

Only then did the Hou Ye couple come back to their senses and hurriedly chased after them.

"Father-in-law, don't go, the holy decree hasn't been received yet...... Father-in-law? ”

"Don't, don't come here......"

Father-in-law Qi was so frightened that he didn't even dare to turn his head back, he only hated that his legs were running too slowly, and he ran to the door in a panic.

"Ouch-" Father-in-law Qi grinned in pain, but he couldn't take care of it, gritted his teeth and got up in pain, and limped out of the hall, as if there was a ghost behind him.

The hall was quiet, and the Hou Ye and Ye Chengxuan couldn't help but look at each other.

The air was dead silent. The masters don't speak, and the minions naturally don't dare to speak.

After a while, Hou Ye came to his senses and turned his head to look at his wife, just as Wen was also looking at him.

The two shouted in unison: "Meng Meng! ”
