Early in the morning, the town of the state of the mansion.

Ye Zhiwei got up early in the morning and sat there, letting Xiaolian and others take care of her makeup.

Today is the day when she enters the palace to thank the emperor, so she gets up early in the morning to freshen up, looks at her complicated outfit from the mirror, and feels a headache just by looking at it.

Wearing a crown of pearls and clouds on his head, he was dressed in purple clothes, although the grade was not determined, but the clothes and accessories that the emperor rewarded were all customized according to the decree of the first product.

Ye Zhiwei knew in her heart, knowing that even if the emperor was impulsive, it was impossible for him to really regard himself as the heir who could inherit the position of the Duke of Zhenguo, and her current existence was just enough to block those who tried to contaminate this position behind.

If the emperor doesn't like it, it will be impossible for them to snatch this son even if they break their heads.

Mama Mi came in from outside and said, "Miss, the eldest lady has arrived in the front yard, and the carriage is ready." ”

Ye Zhiwei said "um", and Xiaolian and the others sped up the movements in their hands.

"Don't go out of the yard while I'm away." Ye Zhiwei told everyone in her courtyard that Ye Yaoqin had never shown up since the night before yesterday, and heard the news from the gold steward that the prince of Zhenguo called Ye Dongzhou and the Li family to the front hall, and scolded them for half an hour, and when they came out, the Li family's legs were weak, and they were still carried back by their mother-in-law.

Ye Yaoqin was originally going to be punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, but the Li family begged bitterly, and finally the Zhenguo Gong fined Ye Yaoqin twenty bamboo boards and slapped his palms.

"The eldest lady cried from morning to night yesterday, and I heard that it was useless even for dinner." Mama Mi told Ye Zhiwei about the side courtyard.

The palm of the twenty bamboo board is said to be light or not, and it is not heavy, but in the short term, Ye Yaoqin's hand will not be able to move.

"It's the right hand." Mama Mi lowered her voice.

Ye Zhiwei sneered, "She still has to copy the family motto a hundred times, why did her grandfather hit her right hand?" ”

Xiaolian said with a smile, "It must be that the eldest lady thought that after hitting her right hand, Grandpa Guo would be soft-hearted, and she would not punish the eldest lady for copying again." ”

Ye Zhiwei sneered, it's really better to be a human being, it should be yours, and you can't run away.

Everyone packed up and went out of Jufang Garden.

There were two carriages parked outside the Zhenguo Mansion, and the eldest lady had been waiting impatiently, and when Ye Zhiwei came out, she saw that her face was black as if it was about to rain.

The two greeted each other perfunctorily, and Ye Zhiwei got into the carriage, and the two carriages went straight to the palace.

The Imperial Palace, in the palace of Concubine Li.

Incense curls up from the incense burner, and the hall is extremely dark.

King Feng Minghao was wearing a purple python robe, standing in front of the flower window, looking at the white hosta flower under the window.

"Minghao." Concubine Li entered the main hall at some point and saw King Ying standing there with a gentle smile on her face.

"Say hello to my mother." The King of England stepped forward to salute.

Concubine Li smiled, "It's getting harder and harder to invite you to come here, isn't it really hard to forget the concubine?" ”

The king hurriedly arched his hand: "The concubine laughed, how dare the sons...... I don't know what the mother concubine called her sons into the palace today? ”

Concubine Li sat down on the chair and stared at her most beloved son with a smile, "You are not young, you should quickly establish the position of concubine, the emperor mentioned this matter to the palace a few days ago, and the palace wants to ask you about your plans." ”

The King of England's expression froze, and for some reason, he suddenly remembered that the hosta flower he had just seen was here, which seemed to be plain, but it had a refreshing fragrance, just like ...... The little guy in his memory always loves to cry, and when he sees him, he will clamoring for him to hug him, and she will keep everything he gives her......

The hosta flower has grown up quietly, but it has become a stranger to him.

Although he was puzzled by this, it was undeniable that he was also amused, wondering what kind of woman she would eventually become.

"Don't worry, the concubine, the son doesn't want to be a concubine too early." The King smiled apologetically.

"Why not rush?" Concubine Li was dissatisfied, "Now that the daughters of many ministers in the court are at the right age, if you don't pick now, you will be picked by others." ”

The king of England was helpless, "Have you forgotten the concubine, the son has already been selected for the concubine." ”

"You mean the granddaughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, Ye Zhiwei." Concubine Li sighed and said quietly: "I'm afraid that this girl will not be successful." ”

"Why?" The King was surprised.

"Don't look at that girl is now under the protection of the emperor, but how long can she last alone in the Zhenguo Mansion? I'm afraid that it won't be long before she, like Ye Huai'an, will die of an inexplicable illness. ”

"Isn't Ye Huai'an's illness because Min has been overthinking since he hanged himself?" King Ying was stunned, in fact, since the death of Ye Zhiwei's biological mother Min, he rarely paid attention to the Zhenguo Mansion, one was because he moved out of the palace when he became an adult, set up his own mansion outside, and many things had to be taken care of, and the other was because he was busy expanding his own power, cultivating cronies, and winning over his ministers, so for a long time after Ye Zhiwei went to the south, he didn't pay attention to these things at all.

Concubine Li's eyes darkened, "Anyway, so many years have passed since this matter, don't mention it, it's just that you can't put your whole heart on that girl, Gu Xiuting in this palace looks at Prime Minister Zuo's Mansion well, and her age is also suitable, you can take the time to go to Prime Minister Zuo's Mansion to pay a visit in a few days, and Nangong Yan, the concubine of General Nangong's Mansion, is also very suitable for your concubine, I heard that the prince seems to be interested in her......" Concubine Li chattered a lot.

King Ying pondered: "What about Sister Wei'er?" ”

"If you can't bear her, you can leave the position of the side concubine to her." Concubine Li said, "But the premise is that she can live in Nafu until she is married." ”

"Concubine ......" He couldn't help but think of her breezy face in front of the palace gate that day.

The courtier is an ominous person, not worthy of His Royal Highness, and please don't come to me again in the future......

Could it be ...... She said this because she knew she couldn't survive those guns and arrows?

King Ying only felt a certain part of her heart, suddenly softened, she was worried about affecting herself, she said this, from childhood to adulthood, she liked herself the most, such a deep feeling, how could she suddenly say that it would change.

It must be so!

At the same time, outside the palace.

"Ahh Ye Zhiwei, who was sitting in the carriage and was about to enter the palace, suddenly sneezed loudly.

"Miss, are you alright?" Xiaolian said worriedly.

Ye Zhiwei rubbed her nose, just now she only felt cold behind her back.

"It's fine." She got out of the carriage and told Xiaolian to tell the groom, "You wait here first, if I don't come back, you don't go back." ”

"Got it." Xiaolian replied, now even the groom is their own person, so Ye Zhiwei is not very worried.

She followed the eldest lady Li and the two into the palace gate.
