The prince's poisoning couldn't be hidden in the palace if he wanted to, and the East Palace, which was already full of people, became more and more lively, and the gatekeeper would receive many greetings every day. It's just that no matter who comes, Yu Wenye will not see anything, so that those who want to take the opportunity to flatter and stammer will be dusty.

On this day, Mrs. Ye Taifu sent a message of worship and came to the door in person, and the porter knew that Mrs. Ye was the prince's father-in-law, and Mrs. Ye was obviously coming for the crown princess, so she didn't dare to stop her from hurrying to Qiushui Pavilion to communicate.

Xing'er, the maid next to Ye Shiying, led Mrs. Ye straight to Qiushui Pavilion, Xing'er looked delicate and upright but silent. When Mrs. Ye asked, she answered truthfully, never saying more.

In the small flower hall of Qiushui Pavilion, Ye Shiying wore a home-style lotus-colored Suzhou embroidered lily dress, twisted the green silk into a snail bun with a red gold step, and flipped through a book of poetry in her hand, with an elegant and picturesque temperament.

As soon as I heard it, I knew that it was Qing'er's crisp voice: "Princess, Mrs. Ye is here." ”

Ye Shiying hurriedly put down the Book of Poetry, and a long-lost smile appeared on her lips, from the bottom of her heart. Try your best to hide the bitterness that lingers in your heart all day long, and put on a happy appearance.

Before Mrs. Ye knelt down to salute her, Ye Shiying had already stepped forward to hug her and stopped: "There are no outsiders here, and mother doesn't need to be polite." ”

Mrs. Ye was overjoyed when she saw her daughter, whom she had not seen for many days, and tears of excitement were clearly rolling in her eyes, but she said calmly: "You are now the crown princess, and the national gift cannot be abolished." ”

Haoyue knew that their mother and daughter must have something to say when they saw each other, so after serving melon, fruit and tea, she led Qing'er and Xing'er and other maids to retreat quietly.

Mrs. Ye Li Zhi has just reached her forties this year, and her appearance has not faded, and the charm of her eyebrows and eyes has not diminished. I think that when Li Zhi was not out of the cabinet, the eldest lady of the Rongguo Mansion was famous in the capital, and it is no wonder that now her daughter Ye Shiying's appearance is better than blue.

It's wonderful to say that Ye Shiying and Bai Muguan's mother-in-law are sisters of the same mother, and the faces of the sisters are seven points similar. But the two daughters they gave birth to are completely different in appearance and temperament. It turned out that Ye Shiying inherited her mother's unparalleled beauty, and Bai Muguan's eyebrows and eyes were very similar to her father Bai Zhanyi.

"Mother, my daughter went to visit her grandmother in the Rongguo Mansion a few days ago, and she wanted to go back to the Taifu Mansion to visit her mother, but she couldn't bear the cold halfway." Speaking of this, Ye Shiying couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly.

When Mrs. Ye was pregnant with her, she was repeatedly bumped by Ye Hong's concubine and almost lost her pregnancy. Although the fetus was carefully cared for, it was born prematurely in less than eight months. In Ye Shiying's memory, she began to take medicine since she was three years old.

In fact, she was extremely envious of the sisters of the same clan in her family who could run freely when they were children, and could play polo with a bow, and even more envious of her cousin Bai Muguan's fresh clothes and angry horses. And she can only read quietly or practice calligraphy, even if she plays the piano for a while, her body will not be able to bear it.

With such a sick and weak body, not to mention that Yu Wenye's heart is not here with her, even if he is willing to pamper her, can she be happy and flattering?

"Niangniang should cherish her body, there is always a chance for our mother and daughter to see each other." Mrs. Ye seemed to think of something, and suddenly frowned and asked, "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was killed by an adulterer and was sick in bed, why didn't Niangniang go to serve the sick?" ”

Ye Shiying's heart was filled with indescribable sourness, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she said in disguise: "I said that I didn't go to the sick, and Your Highness will not blame you." ”

She also got in the way of his eyes when she went, and they were uncomfortable with each other.

Yu Wenye should be accompanied by Bai Muguan at this moment, right? She just stood there without saying or moving, and she could amaze him. What's more, with Bai Muguan's cleverness, they must be laughing and talking about the past and the present.

"Ying'er, I'm sorry for you." Calling back to the old title, Mrs. Ye was very reluctant.

How could she not know her daughter's beauty on the outside but bitterness on the inside? Mrs. Ye is gentle and introverted, and her heart is bright, let alone knowing her daughter Mo Ruomu, how can she escape her eyes?

Ye Shiying reached out to hold her mother's hand, and said with a light smile: "Mother doesn't have to worry, His Royal Highness treats me badly." ”

Yes, Yu Wenye really didn't treat her badly! All the food and clothing are the best, and she doesn't need to worry about the size of the house. It's just that he has a cold attitude towards her, since Bai Muguan lived in Qingyun Pavilion, he has never set foot in Qiushui Pavilion for half a step. Which girl has never fantasized about her husband singing with her wife after marriage when she was pregnant with spring? Ye Shiying is no exception. But between her and Yu Wenye, she couldn't even talk about raising her eyebrows.

When today's son was young, although he fell in love with Concubine Chen, and he was forced to marry the queen, they were at least a respectful husband and wife, and they had a pair of children. And what about Yu Wenye? Will he give Ye Shiying a chance to have children for him?

Mrs. Ye patted the back of her daughter's smooth and delicate hand, frowned tighter, hesitated for a moment and decided to ask: "There are only you and my mother and daughter in this house, you tell Wei Niang the truth, does His Royal Highness really fall in love with Mu Guan?" ”

There have been rumors outside for a long time, and Mrs. Ye listened to it in her ears and felt bitter in her heart. Bai Muguan is the daughter of her sister, and Mrs. Ye has always regarded her as her own, and every time she thinks of her suffering.

Sure enough, Ye Shiying's beautiful eyes became more and more dim, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and the corners of her mouth curved hard: "Mother has never seen them standing side by side, just like beautiful people." ”

A handsome and graceful son, the pride of the sky.

One has a bright complexion and a bright look.

It's a match made in heaven.

Madame Ye's expression was complicated, as if there was anger but it quickly disappeared. Then she let out a long sigh, and the gaze that looked at her daughter became more and more pitying and distressed.

"With Mu Wan's heart, I'm afraid that he is unwilling to be a side room, and he is not suitable to be a royal wife." As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Ye felt that something was slightly inappropriate, and after a pause, she added, "But it seems that ordinary men still have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that Your Highness is the prince, and sooner or later he will win the world." Mu Wan is your cousin after all, you have a deep affection for different others, and you have to look away when it comes to that day. ”

"Mother rest assured, I don't mind." Ye Shiying comforted her in turn.

"That's it, don't mention Mu Guan." Mrs. Ye couldn't bear to sigh, and said earnestly, "Ying'er, I know that you have a modest temperament, and you are the pearl of your palm when you are at home, but now that you are a royal daughter-in-law, you can't be blindly lenient and tolerant, you should also show the courage of the crown princess!" You are the wife of Your Highness, and no matter who marries Your Highness again in the future, they should always respect you. ”

Ye Shiying nodded, signaling her mother to feel at ease.

Seeing her daughter being so delicate, Mrs. Ye couldn't help but feel annoyed that the Hundred Flowers Banquet last year really shouldn't have made Ye Shiying show off, so that she was caught by Queen Tong. The Ye family never thought of letting their only beloved daughter marry into the royal family, and they only hoped that she would be safe and smooth in her life, but they didn't expect that the sky would not help her.

Regret is useless, Mrs. Ye picked up the teacup and took a sip of Lao Jun's eyebrows, and suddenly said: "I haven't seen Mu Wan for a long time, you send someone to call her over, and my aunt also has something to tell her." ”

Ye Shiying's eyes flashed, and she deliberately diverted the topic: "Mother must be hungry after coming for a long time, I told Haoyue to bring some snacks." ”

"Ying'er!" What a shrewd person Mrs. Ye was, she realized that she had already guessed five points, and she couldn't help frowning and raising her voice.

Ye Shiying knew that she couldn't hide it from her mother, so she simply smiled and said, "Mu Wan is accompanying His Highness in the study." ”

After saying just that, Mrs. Ye's face had changed and changed.

"Nonsense! Not only is His Royal Highness messing around, but Mu Wan is even more ridiculous! She is a girl who has not left the cabinet, and she actually went to His Royal Highness's study, if there is a little rumor, what face will she have? Mrs. Ye snorted coldly, and said sharply, "It's a shame that your aunt Baba wrote a letter asking me to help take care of Mu Guan, where does she still need me to take care of her!" ”

The Ye family is a scholarly family that pays the most attention to etiquette, and the same is true of the Rongguo Mansion. Although Mrs. Ye and her husband were not blind and dumb in marriage, they were limited to a glimpse of the boudoir and appreciated each other's literary brilliance.

If Yu Wenye has a little favor for Bai Muguan, Mrs. Ye can barely accept it. But she couldn't imagine that they had developed to the point of being alone! Mrs. Ye knew Bai Muguan's temperament very well, if she was not willing, the king of heaven would not be afraid of disobedience. Not to mention anything else, now they are nameless and pointless, once they are rumored to be rumors, it is equivalent to confirming that Bai Muguan shamelessly seduces the prince.

Ye Shiying lowered her head helplessly and smiled: "Mother, don't be angry, Your Majesty admires Muguan's women for not letting her shave her eyebrows, not only making an exception to canonize her as an official of the court, but also praising her." Now Her Highness is the only one in her eyes, I have no intention of His Highness, if Mu Wan can marry into the East Palace, our cousins will also take care of each other. ”

These words are her sincere words. Although no woman really wants her husband to take a concubine, most of them are powerless to restrain her. If you don't look down, you can only increase your distress. What's more, Ye Shiying really hopes that Bai Muguan will marry Langjun as she wishes, if she recognizes the prince, Ye Shiying will not say much.

Hearing her daughter say this, Mrs. Ye could only keep her mouth shut, for fear of making Ye Shiying even more sad. Originally, the joy of seeing each other when the mother and daughter faded away, and Mrs. Ye stayed in Qiushui Pavilion for lunch and went home.
