Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Power of Motherhood

It took Ye Lan'er another whole day to rush to Yunshui City.

The prosperity of Yunshui City is no worse than the capital of the Great Xia Kingdom. But it is said that it is full of traffic, and it is flat.

But Ye Lan'er didn't have time to appreciate the customs here, she casually grabbed a passer-by and inquired, and found the most expensive inn in Yunshui City, Yuelai Inn.

She was still wearing the same dirty homespun clothes, so as soon as she stepped through the door, she was immediately met with white eyes.

Ye Lan'er raised her eyebrows and shouted at the little er who looked down on herself: "The dog's eyes look down on people!" Ben Gongzi was a bad robber on the road, so he had to dress up like this! Do you think I can't afford to stay in a hotel? It's a joke! Even if the property is robbed, the remaining money is enough! Believe it or not, I'll buy your inn and be the first to kick you out! ”

Xiao Er was frightened by her high-spirited momentum.

Ye Lan'er scolded angrily: "What are you doing in a daze!" You guys here, the best upper room, don't take me there yet! ”

With that, she took out a silver ticket worth five hundred taels from her bosom and slapped it on the table.

The shopkeeper picked up the large silver ticket and looked at it, and his face was immediately full of flattery.

"Tianzi No. 1 room, little Dengzi, take this son quickly! Good life! ”

Ye Lan'er's movement just now was not small, causing onlookers.

She specially took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from her bosom and slapped it on the table of the shopkeeper: "Take it!" Give me a table of the most expensive food in Yunshui City and send it to me! ”

Then, under the attention of everyone, he swaggered upstairs, instructed the little Deng Zi to send someone to prepare a bath bucket of hot water, and stuffed him with two silver tickets of five hundred taels: "Go, I will buy three sets of ready-to-wear clothes for the master." Remember, it must be the best shop in Quanyun Water City, and the clothes with the highest price, understand? ”

Xiao Er nodded: "Understood!" Got it! ”

"The silver is easy to say, as long as you do things to my satisfaction, the rest is the reward for your errands, go!"

Ye Lan'er paid a high price of two thousand taels and asked the inn to be responsible for getting herself the most gorgeous incense car, and equipped it with a coachman.

By the time everything was in order, Ye Lan'er had already washed it and put on silk and satin, which was unspeakably expensive.

With an expression of dismay, she lifted her chin and boarded the carriage that had been waiting for a long time.

At this time, the rumors of a burgeoning noble son in Yunshui City also spread.

Ye Lan'er was very satisfied with the inquisitive curiosity and the admiration of money on the street.

The carriage traveled all the way and finally stopped in front of the Prince's Mansion.

Ye Lan'er stepped out of the carriage, with a smile on her face, and said to the porter: "In the spring of the Ten Thousand Families of the Xia Kingdom, I came to visit His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the order of my father. ”

With that, he took out a silver ingot with a full weight from his sleeve pocket and stuffed it into the porter's hand.

The porter took the money very calmly, nodded, and walked in.

After a while, the porter came out and invited Ye Lan'er in.

Ye Lan'er changed into a polite expression and respectfully followed the house.

Jing Haoyang's Prince's Mansion is much inferior to Murong Yan's Prince's Mansion. First of all, it is inferior from the floor area, and the decoration design of the house is also ordinary, and the owner did not put much thought into it.

Ye Lan'er said that it was understandable, firstly, there was no woman in this Jinghao Yang's mansion, and the princess was the number one to handle it, so naturally she couldn't be exquisite. Second, Jing Haoyang's guy only cares about his own stinky beauty, how can he have the heart to give his house stinky and beautiful.

She followed the servant, turned three corners along the verandah, and came to a side hall.

In front of the hall, an old man with a long beard and quite elegant had been waiting for a long time.

"Under Liu Kaizhi, he was ordered by the prince to manage the affairs of the prince's mansion. Wan Gongzi has worked hard all the way, please come in, please come in! The old man gave Ye Lan'er a salute first, and asked her to come in sideways.

He was very respectful and did not doubt Ye Lan'er's identity. Ye Lan'er was very proud in her heart, knowing that the image of the fallen son who had spent thousands of dollars to create had probably spread here. Sure enough, the money is in place, and the effect is good.

But Ye Lan'er didn't know what the origin of this person was, and said that he should be similar to a staff member or a housekeeper or something. But it is not ruled out that Xiao Qian sent to control the Prince's Mansion. So he just smiled and walked into the temple.

After sitting down, the maid served fragrant tea.

Ye Lan'er took a sip gently: "Well, good tea!" ”

Liu Kaizhi smiled: "This is my Yunwu tea from Yunlan Country, this year's new product, thank you Gongzi for your praise." I had made a special trip to Wanjia to send some before, I don't know if the son can remember. ”

Ye Lan'er also smiled back, knowing in her heart that he was tempting: "It is indeed good tea, and I haven't seen the ones sent to Wanjia." After all, for the sake of business, I have been running around all the year round, and my father has good tea, so he will share it all if he doesn't care about me.

However, this time, my father sent me to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and one of the important tasks was to bring this cloud tea from Yunlan Kingdom to the Great Xia Kingdom to promote it. It's just that I don't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is suitable to meet with him. ”

This is all in Ye Lan'er's heart. But fortunately, it is high-sounding and troublesome.

The old man heard Ye Lan'er's answer, stood up and bowed his hand: "Thank you to the head of the Wan family for your support to the prince, and even more so to the prince Wan for his tireless work and thousands of miles to come to my Yunlan." It's just unfortunate that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already gotten up and gone to Great Xia to marry the tenth princess of your country, and he won't be able to come back for a while.

Ten thousand families have been in business for generations, and Ling Zun has been away all the year round, so he must have not received a letter from our prince.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince attaches great importance to your visit, and before leaving, he instructed him that if Prince Wan has arrived in Yunshui City, he must be entertained well. It will take more than ten days for the prince to welcome his relatives, so you might as well play in my Yunshui City for a while, learn more about the customs and customs here, and better cooperate with the prince. ”

Ye Lan'er thought for a while and nodded: "Steward Liu, what you said makes sense." ”

Liu Kaizhi smiled and said, "Then I'll arrange it later." For the sake of the safety of the prince, you will live in the prince's mansion first, and I will pick a few capable guards and take you around the Yunlan country, how about it? ”

Ye Lan'er smiled: "That's naturally excellent. However, speaking of guards, I was more familiar with one of the guards in your house at that time, so I wonder if Steward Liu can arrange him for me? ”

Liu Kaizhi's face was surprised: "Oh? I don't know, Wan Gongzi knows which guard in my house. ”

Ye Lan'er looked at Liu Kaizhi's eyes: "I remember, his name is Friday." ”

As soon as the words came out, Ye Lan'er saw Liu Kaizhi's face change slightly. Although he tried his best to cover it up, he still couldn't escape Ye Lan'er's eyes.

"I don't have a good memory, maybe it's wrong. In our house, there is a guard called Friday, right? Is he in the house now? Ye Lan'er deliberately said again.

Friday was one of the four guards he had seen in the house when he fled with him, and Ye Lan'er was the only one who knew his name.

She knew that Friday was not only Jing Haoyang's guard, but also Jing Haoyang's secret guard. The Dark Guard, a hidden power in the shadows. It is impossible for an ordinary steward to know that this person exists.

But just now Liu Kaizhi told himself with his expression that he knew about Friday, and it was very likely that Friday had risked his life to rush back and communicate a message to him.

Then, Ye Lan'er has reason to believe that this Liu Kaizhi is not a person sent by Xiao Qian, but should be Jing Haoyang's henchman.

A trace of suspicion flashed on Liu Kaizhi's face: "There are many guards in the house, and I can't even remember if there is such a person as Friday at the next moment, I don't know when Gongzi Wan got acquainted with this Friday?" ”

Ye Lan'er knew that Liu Kaizhi was testing herself.

But she couldn't bear the back and forth.

With a judgment in his heart, he simply picked it out, Ye Lan'er reached out and took out something from his sleeve pocket and put it in front of Liu Kaizhi: "To be honest, I didn't just know Friday, I also saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the way here. This object was given by the crown prince. ”

Liu Kaizhi's body shook slightly.

This is the prince's personal belongings, and it is also a secret weapon for his self-defense, which has never left his body for more than 20 years, but now it has appeared in the hands of this person who calls himself Wan Gongzi!

"Who the hell are you!"

Ye Lan'er: "Steward Liu, I'm not the son of a family of ten thousand. I came here in his capacity to deliver the news to you, sir, as soon as possible. The prince is in trouble! ”

Liu Kaizhi had already gotten Friday's information before, and quickly contacted Wei Sikong. Wei Sikong suppressed Xiao Qian above the court, and at the same time arranged people to closely monitor Yunshui City on the one hand, and sent a master on the other hand, Huang Que was behind.

But what exactly happened ahead and what the prince's current situation was, it was impossible for them to know from far away in Yunlan Kingdom.

"What the hell is the prince!"

Ye Lan'er thought about it, and replied according to the words she had designed before: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been captured by Xiao Gan's people and secretly sneaked back to Yunlan Kingdom. What is certain is that the crown prince's life is not in danger at the moment, otherwise Xiao Qian must have begun to usurp the country. I don't know exactly what his plot is, but the only thing I know for sure is that we don't have much time left, and I must meet the queen! ”

If Ye Lan'er wants to see the queen, she must convince the guy in front of her, and the only thing that can move him is probably Jing Haoyang's life. So, she lied.

"Xiao Qian's old thief!" Liu Kaizhi was so angry that the green tendons on his forehead burst out.

Ye Lan'er added fuel to the fire: "This ring was given to me by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before he was captured. He told me that it was ostensibly a ring, but it was actually a secret weapon for self-defense. He knew that I didn't know martial arts, so he gave it to me to defend myself.

At the same time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also knew that they had already fought with Xiao Qian's people on Friday, and it was extremely dangerous to sneak back to Yunshui City. And I'm a fresh-faced, powerless, least likely to arouse suspicion. So he told me that I must go to the prince's mansion and find a way to meet the queen. ”

Liu Kaizhi was a little sad and indignant: "The prince of a dignified country has fallen into such a situation. Treacherous and misguided country! Treacherous and misleading the country!

"Mr. Liu," Ye Lan'er changed her title: "You have a way, I have to meet the queen, the sooner the better!" ”

Liu Kaizhi came back to his senses: "Yes, yes, but the queen has been worshipping the Buddha for a long time, and she doesn't even ask about the affairs of the harem anymore, how can she have a way to save His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

Ye Lan'er couldn't explain it, and only said a politically correct sentence vaguely, and successfully persuaded Liu Kaizhi: "The queen is the mother of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Never underestimate the power of a mother! ”
