Mama Lu also heard the movement, glanced at Mrs. Sun, the gloomy look on her face could not be concealed, she hung her head and got up and went out to the door of the upper room, under the corridor of the east wing, Ye Lihai, the king of Dongyang County, rushed to the front, and the front of the long shirt was raised, and she rushed into the upper room, and saw the old lady Sun who was half leaning on the kang and looking peaceful, like a baby seeing her mother, her eyes were red, and she knelt down on the kang with soft knees. Behind the king of Dongyang County, the prince Ye Shusheng, the princess of Liu County, the wife of the prince Yao, the second grandmother Lin Wen, the second Mrs. Chen, the third master Ye Shuyu and others followed and knelt on the ground.

"Get up." Old Madam Sun's calm voice was full of dissatisfaction: "Why is this so?!" ”

"Yes!" The king of Dongyang County hurriedly stood up, stood in front of the kang with his hands down, and looked at Mrs. Sun with anxious eyes and eagerness: "A-Niang, the official family has established a prince, this matter is ......."

"I already know." Old Madam Sun's gaze crossed her son, fell on Ye Shusheng and asked, "Is the fourth brother okay?" ”

"Since I heard the letter from Prince Li, I haven't seen the fourth master yet." Ye Shusheng replied with sadness and self-blame, and Mrs. Sun said softly: "I'll ask, if you can't see it, it doesn't matter, you sit." Old Madam Sun pointed to the edge of the kang and motioned to her son Dongyang County King: "Since this is here, this mansion and the Ye family should also be arranged, and the people have arrived, so you can say it first." Mrs. Sun motioned to the king of Dongyang County, and the king of Dongyang County looked dazed: "A-Niang, this thing is so sudden, how can there be any arrangement?" ”

Old Madam Sun looked at her son with cold eyes, she was not even disappointed in him, Ye Shusheng moved half a step uncomfortably, and said with a slight bow: "The matter of establishing the prince is indeed sudden, old ancestor, you still arrange it, you are the backbone of our Ye family." Old Madam Sun sighed: "At my age, can I still be the backbone of you for a few days?" After I die, this family," Old Madam Sun looked around at everyone, and her eyes fell on the king of Dongyang County: "You are also old, let Da Lang worry about these idle things." ”

The king of Dongyang County nodded with a somewhat embarrassed face, Princess Liu Jun's expression remained unchanged, compared to her husband, she preferred her son to take on the responsibility of the family as soon as possible, Ye Shusheng was stunned, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked straight at Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Sun met his gaze, with a slight smile on her face, this time for a while, this grandson has grown a lot, Mrs. Sun is pleased with her grandson's growth, and she doesn't bother to pay attention to her son's stupidity, it is already a critical moment for the survival of the family, and he only cares about his face!

"After I died, I left my daughter-in-law to watch the house in the capital, and everyone else went back to the old house to keep filial piety." Old Madam Sun then explained, Ye Shusheng opened his mouth, tears came out of his eyes, and the king of Dongyang County frowned and said, "Auntie, it's still early to ...... your death."

"Wife!" Ye Shusheng interrupted his father's words, and knelt down in front of the kang with tears in everyone's confusion or stunned, looked up at Mrs. Sun and mourned: "You can't do this, this is the catastrophe of our Ye family, if the prince can't tolerate the Ye family, this family will not be able to escape because of filial piety, if the prince is willing to let the Ye family live, the wife is like this, isn't it in vain to lose the number of life?" How can children and grandchildren have peace of mind? Woman, you can't do this! Only then did everyone understand the meaning of Mrs. Sun's explanation, and the king of Dongyang County stood up 'huh', and knelt beside Ye Shusheng with a plop, tears like rain: "My son is not filial, A-Niang must not be like this...... So ......" The king of Dongyang couldn't go on, crying and kowtowing. Princess Liu Jun and the others hurriedly followed and knelt together, crying high and low.

"Get up! I'm not dead yet! Mrs. Sun said angrily, Ye Shusheng hurriedly got up, wiped his tears with one hand, and went to help his father Dongyang County King with the other, Mrs. Sun leaned back, half-closed her eyes, and listened to the crying stopped, then opened her eyes and confessed: "My dowry has been divided, half of it is added to the daughter-in-law's dowry, and half is added to the twelve girls." ”

"Add to the daughter-in-law's dowry?" Mrs. Ye Shusheng's Mrs. Yao was shocked and angry, and blurted out, and Mrs. Chen, Ye Twelve Niang's A-Niang, followed closely: "A-Niang just hurts the twelfth sister again, and it's not this pain, she added makeup, so don't you have to take it to Yao's house?" This has to be left to Brother Yu'er! Ye Shuyu, the eldest son of the second room, and his daughter-in-law Liu stood behind Mrs. Chen and nodded like pounded garlic.

Old Madam Sun snorted angrily, her fingers trembled slightly, and she nodded Ye Shusheng and ordered, "You tell them!" Ye Shusheng was glaring angrily at Mrs. Yao, and when he heard Mrs. Sun's order, he hurriedly agreed, turned his head and stared at Mrs. Yao word by word: "Confused! The Ye family has reached a life-and-death juncture, and you are so confused that you only care about the silver! If the house is raided, only if the money is placed in the dowry of the daughter-in-law and the twelve sisters, can there be any hope of keeping a few points! ”

Mrs. Yao lowered her head and looked at Lin Wen with no anger, but she didn't dare to make any more sounds. Lin Wen stood sadly on the corner of the kang, her mind was on Mrs. Sun. Mrs. Chen rolled her eyes and said with a dry smile: "Since it is a deposit, this person is a lot of mouthful, it is better to have a charter first, so as not to be unclear in the future......

"It's not a deposit, it's my dowry, I can give it to whoever I want," Mrs. Sun interrupted Mrs. Chen's words in a faint tone, but she didn't look at her, just looked at Ye Shusheng and ordered: "Brother Sheng, listen, what you said is right, this is a catastrophe for the Ye family, whether the Ye family can survive it, it only depends on how much blessing the ancestors of the Ye family have left, after I die, you will divide the family, and immediately divide it, and in the future, everyone in the Ye family will take care of each person, you remember, you just need to keep your own branch is enough, and don't care about the rest of the rest, Life and death are up to them. Mrs. Sun's words were extremely straightforward, and the people in the room understood it, but their expressions were different.

"Alas!" Old Madam Sun sighed: "I'm old, I only think about the good in everything, the Ye family has been too glorious over the years, and it has exhausted the blessings, and this catastrophe ......" Old Madam Sun looked discouraged, closed her eyes and stopped for a while, opened her eyes, turned her head, and looked at Lin Wen with a fixed voice: "Sister Wen, I just ask you to protect the two children, don't break the roots of the Ye family." ”

"Well, ma'am...... Don't worry, it's my flesh and blood, unless I die, ......" Lin Wen choked up and couldn't make a sentence, Mrs. Sun breathed a sigh of relief, glanced around at everyone, and suddenly felt extremely tasteless, this big family, none of them made her look at it and left hope!

"Don't worry about the money, think about the Ye family first, and think about whether the Yao family can live out the New Year." Old Madam Sun suddenly stared at Mrs. Yao and sneered: "Your Yao family is really a great ancestor who has accumulated great virtue, and the bastard like the fourteenth brother has actually married the twelfth sister, and thanks to the blessing of the twelfth sister, your Yao family can also be regarded as able to leave a root." Mrs. Yao's face turned purple, and Mrs. Sun tilted her head back, and she laughed, and the whole room was stunned and stunned.

In the palace of Jian'an County, in the warm pavilion near the lake in the back garden, Zhu Mingyan, who had just come out of the full moon for a few days, bowed his head and played the piano with a solemn expression, and the four princes had one foot on the pedal and one foot on the ground, and his head was half lying on a wide armchair behind his head, half-closed, listening to the sound of the piano leisurely and calmly.

"I must see the prince!" Mrs. Sun's sharp voice suddenly sounded outside the warm pavilion, Zhu Mingyan's piano sound was slightly condensed, and it was soon as smooth as ever, and the fourth prince ordered without opening his eyes: "If she wants to see her, let her in." ”

"Master! What shall we do? There is also the Dingguo Mansion...... And the Ye family! Master, what should I do? Mrs. Sun's hair was scattered, as if she was about to scream and shatter into a pile of rubble at the touch of panic, the fourth prince opened one eye and squinted at her, closed her eyes and said, "What to do?" What's wrong? ”

"Master? You don't know yet? Mrs. Sun was stunned and forgot to be frightened: "The official family has established a prince!" King Shou has set up a prince! ”

"Prince Shou Li, what is the matter with us?" The four princes replied slowly, Mrs. Sun was stupid, staring at the four princes for a long time, her neck twisted as if she could hear the sound of 'gurgling', turned her head and stared at Zhu Mingyan, who was still playing the piano smoothly.

"Compared with the Zhu family, the Sun family and the Ye family should indeed be defeated." Looking at Mrs. Sun who fled in the wilderness, the four princes commented idly, Zhu Mingyan's hand trembled, the sound of the piano was broken, Zhu Mingyan simply pushed the piano and stood up, walked in front of the four princes, looked down at him for a long time before speaking: "What are your plans?" ”

"Plans? I didn't intend to. The fourth prince turned his head to look at the bleak lake in winter: "The eldest brother has always flaunted tolerance, he will not treat you well, besides, you gave birth to a daughter, the eldest brother will definitely treat your mother and daughter well, so that the world can see how tolerant and kind he is." ”

"What about you? I'm asking you, what are your plans? What do you want? Zhu Mingyan listened to the creepy hair, her eyes involuntarily widened and asked urgently, the depression on the face of the fourth prince was like a winter day outside the window, his two hands slowly put on his chest, lowered his eyes and said: "I'm like this, the road is set, but some people are willing to go, and some people are reluctant to go, I am looking forward to it." ”

"Let's go overseas! Let's go! You, me, and our daughter, we don't want anything, let's leave tonight, I just want you...... As long as...... We're in this together! You have to live......" Zhu Mingyan squatted down, stretched out her hand to clasp the hands of the four princes, and shouted in a mournful voice, the four princes were slightly stunned, looked at her gently, and asked softly: "The steward in the morning is the shopkeeper under the princess of Jinning County?" This must be the back road she prepared for herself, she just thinks about it. ”
