Chapter 053 Lifting the Lockdown
You must know that Cen Yu's current status is not as good as before. In the past, Cen Yuan, as a steward, could still take care of Cen Yu openly and secretly, but now Cen Yuan's death has made Cen Yu lose his reliance.
Ye Yushan, who was originally single-minded, was also an impenetrable stone, so incomprehensible.
All the rampant capital has come to naught, how dare Cen Yu continue to be presumptuous?
Regarding Cen Yu's performance in front of her, Ye Wanruo just smiled, did not let Cen Yu get up, but just made her still kneel on the ground, with a hint of warning in her tone:
"If you know that you are a slave and a slave, you must keep your duty as a slave and a slave, and do not do anything that is transgressive! This is the princess's mansion, even if the mother is not there, the majesty of the royal family is still there, and it is better to do it yourself! ”
"Slaves and maids must remember the teachings of the eldest lady, and they must abide by the rules and know their duties!"
Cen Yu's kneeling body seemed to be trembling a little, I don't know if it was because of panic? Or is it because of the flames of rage, because of the anxiety in the heart? The head hung down and made a dull sound.
Whether it is sincere or fake, Ye Wanruo doesn't care.
The cancer can only be relieved after it is completely eradicated, and since the meaning of the other party is unclear, Ye Wanruo doesn't mind watching a good show with her.
"It's the best! I'm tired, go back! ”
"Yes, Miss!"
There was a hint of fatigue in her tone, and Ye Wanruo then ordered Qiu to help Ye Wanruo walk towards Tingyu Pavilion.
Only the figure behind him still knelt on the corridor in a regular manner, and it was not until Ye Wanruo's figure walked away that Cen Yu raised his head and stood up. Although Ye Wanruo was no longer visible, Cen Yu was still looking in the same direction vaguely, the light in his eyes was replaced by a raging fire, and his hatred was self-evident.
Ye Wanruo, I, Cen Yu, swore that no matter what means I used, I would definitely turn over and become the master of this princess's mansion. I want to see, when that day comes, how can you Ye Wanruo grovel in front of me and call me aunt?
You and your mother have caused me to spend my whole life prosperous in the princess's mansion, like falling flowers withering for nothing, nothing, I will also let your descendants be lonely to death!
Even though he was unwilling, Cen Yu still returned to his room, changed into plain clothes, and waited for the time to come.
Ye Yushan did not return to his home for the next few days, and the people of Longmen were seriously affected, and there was only a flood at first, but he did not expect that this flood would bring plague to Longmen. After many people were infected, they suffered from headache and fever, coughing and vomiting blood, and their skin was ulcerated and itchy. Eventually, as the skin ulcers get bigger and bigger, the skin decays to death.
Due to the rapid spread of the virus, many people have died of plague. The locals in Longmen are in danger, forcing many people to leave their hometowns and live a life of displacement.
The hospital is dispensing medicine for this plague, but it has not been able to deliver a satisfactory answer for a long time. Many officials were also unfortunately infected to death in the process of burning their bodies, and Ye Yushan was urgently transferred back to the army, hoping to draw a group of men and horses from the army to support Longmen.
Kyoto has naturally become a warning area, and ordinary people are only allowed to go out, not enter.
The entrenchment of the Southern Qin Emperor, if the plague was brought back to Kyoto by those who had a heart, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Seeing that the epidemic was not under control, the Southern Qin Emperor was furious, just when the whole court was immersed in an atmosphere of panic and unease. However, there was good news from the Prince's Courtyard, saying that during the lockdown, the Prince and the Imperial Physician of the Prince's Mansion searched the medical books day and night, and after unremitting efforts, finally developed a formula to cure the plague.
The formula was transmitted to Longmen as soon as possible, and after three days of drug testing and observation, it was proved that the formula could indeed cure the plague. The hospital did not dare to be ambiguous, and immediately sent people to assist in the disaster area of Longmen to treat the victims, so that the disaster situation in Longmen could be effectively controlled.
At the same time, the side concubine of the prince's mansion gave birth to a baby boy for the prince, and the Southern Qin Emperor was happy with his eldest grandson, and the dragon face was happy. And because the prince contributed to the disaster relief, he relieved the prince and the queen of the responsibility of grounding, and chose another auspicious day five days later to hold a banquet in the prince's mansion to celebrate the birthday of the eldest grandson. and allowed all officials to bring their female dependents to attend, which flattered the civil and military officials.
The reason why he was flattered was undoubtedly to give the officials the opportunity to climb the dragon and the phoenix, if his daughter was treated differently by the Southern Qin Emperor, it would be an honor that could not be exchanged for several lifetimes. Even if you cling to any prince, you can enjoy endless glory and wealth.
Becoming a relative of the emperor, even the ministers of the DPRK and the central government have to look up to show respect.
All of a sudden, Kyoto's jewelry stores, cloth shops, and ready-to-wear shops were broken through the threshold by the ladies of the major families, all of whom wanted to design unique dresses to prepare for the banquet in the prince's mansion.
Only Ye Wanruo still does yoga comfortably every day, copying calligraphy and paintings, and occasionally teasing Yingxiang's little girls, as if the so-called banquet in the prince's mansion has nothing to do with her.
After recuperation, Yingxiang's shoulder puncture injury has been healed, but it still itches when it rains on a cloudy day. But Ye Wanruo still insisted, and it was not too late to recuperate for a while, and then come to serve herself.
On this day, there was a whisper outside, Ye Wanruo stood in front of the proposal and copied Liu Yong's "Jade Butterfly: Looking at the Rain and Clouds", she has been here for a while, and she inevitably misses her parents in another world.
can only do the same thing as that world, so that Ye Wanruo can feel a little close.
"Miss, it's lively outside, there is no place to park the carriage on the official road, there are young ladies from all provinces everywhere, it seems that they are all ready to make a name for themselves at the banquet in the prince's mansion!"
Far away, before I saw anyone, I heard the crisp sound of Lingxiang who went out of the house to grab the tonic herbs for Yingxiang. Walking to the door, Lingxiang handed the tung oil cloth umbrella in her hand to the rough girl on the side, and walked in with a smile on her face.
Ye Wanruo didn't seem to hear it, she gently put the brush in her hand aside, looked at her increasingly progressive words, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Lingxiang, how about looking at my handwriting?"
I have long known that my young lady has nothing to do with the character that has been hung high, but how can this time the prince's mansion hold a banquet? Looking at Ye Wanruo's indifferent look when answering the question, Ling Xiang put the decoction that Ying Xiang grabbed back on the table, and stepped forward and asked puzzledly:
"Miss, no matter how you look at it, you can't be too shabby at the banquet of the Prince's Mansion, and you can't be compared to the young ladies of other families, right? Other people's young ladies are eager to show their most beautiful side, but the young lady doesn't seem to care at all? ”
"Shabby? Even if the young lady is wearing coarse linen clothes, she is more than a hundred times better looking than those pretentious and pretentious daughters, where does it come from? ”
Ye Wanruo still looked at her own work on the proposal, and didn't seem to intend to answer Ling Xiang's seemingly idiotic question.
At this moment, a colder voice sounded outside the door.
Ling Xiang immediately turned her head when she heard this voice, and she didn't see a look of appreciation in Ye Wanruo's eyes behind her. Although Qiu Qiu only came to his side recently, he knew Ye Wanruo the best.
Lingxiang's processing ability is not bad, and her mind is transparent, but she is too flamboyant and does not know how to be low-key; Yingxiang is honest and honest, absolutely loyal, but her personality causes her to be too dull.
I saw Qiu Qiu walking in from outside the door, and the long sword behind his back seemed to be extremely powerful, which added a touch of cold aura to Qiu Qiu's already cold little face.
Everyone often talks about Qiu Qiu in private, as if they can't laugh, except for Ye Wanruo, who puts on a cold face to everyone, and looks like no one is close. In fact, the girls who listened to the rain pavilion were secretly a little afraid of autumn, and even Lingxiang was no exception.
"Miss, it's done!"
Ye Wanruo raised her head and handed over an appreciative expression, and said without hesitation:
"You do things, I don't worry!"
"Miss, Lingxiang didn't mean that, it's just that Miss is also about to reach the age of Jilu, maybe she can find a wishful husband through the feast of the prince's mansion, isn't that good?"
Until Ye Wanruo's words fell, Ling Xiang hurriedly explained.
"Ruyi Langjun? If it weren't for Lingxiang's age, she wanted to get married, right? Miss Ben has decided, the prince's mansion will hold a banquet, and she will take Lingxiang to go, and when the time comes, I will personally go to the matchmaker for you! ”
"Miss will make fun of Lingxiang, and waste Lingxiang's mind in vain, Lingxiang will go to Yingxiang to decoct the medicine, and ignore Miss!"
Hearing that Ye Wanruo began to make fun of herself again, Ling Xiang's face flushed a little, picked up the medicinal herbs on the table, and walked out quickly.
"Hehehehe...."
Watching Lingxiang flee in the wilderness, Ye Wanruo couldn't help laughing for a while, Lingxiang's face is getting thinner and thinner, teasing Lingxiang during this time has become Ye Wanruo's pastime after tea. Even Qiu Qiu felt helpless about such a low-interest prank as his own lady.
If it weren't for the banquet in the prince's mansion, Ye Wanruo would almost be immersed in such a leisurely life and couldn't extricate herself, and it was expected that Emperor Nanqin would lift the ban on the prince and the queen.
The reason why this was done was just to warn the queen mother and son, who is the real monarch of this country? was hunted down by Yu Chi Jingyao for a thorough investigation on the day, and it was therefore over. With the prince's behavior, Emperor Nanqin just had enough reason to complete the grounding that day.
The days were too calm, which almost made Ye Wanruo have a delusion about the dangerous situation.
Now that the queen has been lifted, it seems that her good days are coming to an end.
Shaking her head helplessly, Ye Wanruo picked up the teacup on the table and drank it all, for Ye Wanruo's fugue state, Qiu Qiu was no longer surprised, and still stood aside expressionlessly.
The five-day period passed quickly, and Ye Yushan entered the palace as in the morning as before, and after the next court, he and the ministers would go to the prince's mansion with the Southern Qin Emperor and the empress, celebrating the birthday of the eldest grandson of the Southern Qin Emperor.
The family had to go on their own, and Ye Wanruo really brought Lingxiang to attend the banquet in the prince's mansion.
First, Yingxiang's injury is not healed, and secondly, Qiuqiu is responsible for protecting Ye Wanruo's safety, so she must have the ability to see the six ways and listen to the eight directions. And, sometimes, it's more advantageous to protect in the dark than in the open.
At this time, Lingxiang, who is smart and flexible, is the best candidate.
Compared with the ladies of other family mansions, getting up early to dress themselves is bound to show their otherworldly side at today's feast.
And Ye Wanruo still slept until the third watch in the sun, and then she got up unsatisfied. It was as if today's banquet had nothing to do with her.
After washing up, she simply drank some porridge, Ye Wanruo changed into the plain cyan smoke Luo Zi light silk Wangxian skirt that had been prepared long ago, and Ling Xiang pulled a nine-bearded fairy bun for Ye Wanruo, with a simple hosta diagonally inserted in the bun, and there were no other ornaments on her body.
Although no rouge gouache was applied, the white skin and the natural pink of the lip flap, coupled with the Wangxian skirt, made it more gentle and dignified.
Qiu Qiu brought the congratulatory gifts that had been prepared a long time ago, and followed Ye Wanruo into the carriage of the princess's mansion and set off towards the prince's mansion....
