Chapter 87

Mei hurriedly went to Jiping Houfu, did not go to Siyuan Hall, but went directly to Ye Qian's courtyard.

She has lived in the Hou Mansion for more than ten years, and she is very familiar with everything here, and Ye Qian's courtyard has also been here many times, but this time, her mood is very different from the past.

"Sister Qian'er, the third aunt is here to ask for your help." The matter was urgent, Mei didn't care about the detours, and immediately told her father about being imprisoned in the criminal department.

"Third aunt, don't worry, sit down first." Ye Qian poured Mei a cup of tea, "I understand what the third aunt means, but I don't understand the affairs of the criminal department at all." The third aunt's father was originally a member of King Rui's faction, and being imprisoned in the Criminal Department at this time was definitely not a simple crime, she couldn't just agree to come down.

Mei Shi held Ye Qian's hand tightly, "Sister Qian, my father was wronged, he has always been upright, how can he be careless of human life and greedy for ink and silver, to put it bluntly, this is just a factional fight, a discerning person can know at a glance, Isn't it possible for His Royal Highness King Yu to interfere in the affairs of this criminal department, Sister Qian'er will lead a line for me and ask His Royal Highness King Yu to save my father, no matter how much silver you want, I am willing." Although the Mei Mansion was seized, when she got married, her father bought her a lot of dowry, which could be used to save her father.

"It's not about money." Ye Qian wanted to pull his hand out, but was firmly held by the Mei family, "His Royal Highness King Yu ...... The third aunt also knew that His Royal Highness had never been involved in this. "Although King Yu occasionally interferes in the affairs of the six departments, it is not much, and he will only take care of it when he is interested.

"Sister Qian'er, you can help the third aunt, if Sister Qian'er doesn't agree, the third aunt will kneel down for you." Mei gestured to get up.

"Hey, don't," Ye Qian hurriedly stopped her, "I can send a message to His Royal Highness King Yu, but what His Highness thinks and does, it's not up to me to decide." "King Yu has already told her that if someone asks her to do something, if she can't shirk it, she just needs to come down and push it on herself, after all, no one dares to embarrass a prince.

Mei's eyes were full of gratitude, "As long as Sister Qian is willing to speak, it will be enough." ”

Ye Qian wanted to send Mei away first, and then leave for Yuwangfu, but Mei had to go out with her, Ye Qian knew that she was afraid of her delay, so she simply followed her.

Riding the carriage to the palace, Ye Qian went to King Yu's study with ease.

"Brother Yan." Since the New Year, Ye Qian has gradually gained the consciousness of a big girl, and no longer climbs on Xiao Yanfeng, she used to come, and she sat directly on his lap, but this time she sat on the soft couch under the window in a regular manner, "Are you busy?" ”

"Not busy. Is there something wrong with Qianqian? Xiao Yanfeng looked at Ye Qian, the little girl was twelve years old, her body had signs of drawing, her eyebrows and eyes slowly grew, and her round face began to change.

"Hmm. It's the matter of the third aunt's family, her father was imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, and asked me to bring a message to Brother Yan, hoping that Brother Yan could help, and she was willing to give money. ”

Xiao Yanfeng stood up from the big circle chair of rosewood, walked to the soft couch and sat down, pulled her hand and held it in his palm, the little girl refused to go over, he came over, he didn't like the two to talk so far apart, "What does Qianqian think about this matter?" "This kind of thing will be indispensable in the future, and when she becomes the queen, I don't know how many women will want to ask her, what things can be done and what can't, and she has to slowly get used to it.

On the way over in the carriage, Ye Qian had already thought about this problem, "Whether or not to save Master Mei is not based on the relationship between me and the third aunt, but on the layout of Brother Yan in the court." Although Brother Yan was ordered by the emperor to walk in the six departments, he rarely interfered in the affairs of the six departments, he definitely didn't want to follow the old path of King Rui, and I didn't want to watch Brother Yan take risks, this matter, if I let me say, I can't help. ”

"Qianqian is so smart, I really don't want to fight the prince right now." King Yu reached out and touched Ye Qian's head, Ye Qian hurriedly avoided his hand, "This is Bai Zhen's new hairstyle that Bai Zhen has worked so hard to comb for me, Brother Yan, don't mess it up." ”

Little girl, this is beauty. Xiao Yanfeng smiled and pinched her little nose, "There will be no chaos here, right?" ”

Ye Qian slapped his hand away and wrinkled his nose, "It won't be messy, but if you pinch it all the time, it will become ugly." ”

Xiao Yanfeng smiled, his hand went to her ear, and pinched the fleshy little earlobe, "What about here?" ”

Ye Qian gave him a blank look, every time he always had to do it, he couldn't stop it.

"Master Mei, I won't save it, if the third lady goes to find Qianqian again, Qianqian will push it on my head." It's not that he really can't manage the affairs of the six departments, this year, although he doesn't interfere in many things on the surface, but there are people in the six departments, not to mention, long before this, he already has a lot of loyal subordinates. King Yu thought for a while, "Don't talk about it, a while ago, King Pingjun added a son, and the day after tomorrow will be the full moon, Qianqian and I will go to see it." ”

"The full moon banquet of the son of the king of Pingjun?" Ye Qian was a little puzzled, the three princes who were older than King Yu all had children, and he didn't see who he took him to see, this King Pingjun was just his cousin, why did he want to go?

Xiao Yanfeng wrapped his arms around her in his arms, and his chin rested on her slender shoulder, "I want Qianqian to accompany me." There was an inexplicable depression in his voice, and Ye Qian's heart softened suddenly, "Okay, then I'll come over early the day after tomorrow and accompany Brother Yan." ”

The next day, Mei came to the Hou Mansion again, and Ye Qian told her that she had told King Yu, but King Yu said that he couldn't do it.

Mei was disappointed, but she couldn't force King Yu, so she had to go home to discuss with Ye Chengshu.

As soon as Ye Chengshu heard that King Yu didn't plan to take care of this matter, he knew in his heart, in this way, it would be impossible for his father-in-law to come out of the criminal department, after all, who could still go against the prince? He was ready to give up, it didn't matter if his father-in-law couldn't come out, as long as he didn't affect himself, but at this time he pretended to be worried, "I have a few friends, maybe I can give it a try, it's just ...... As you know, it was the crown prince who sent his father-in-law to the Ministry of Punishment, and we can do our best, but we can't guarantee success, and it may cost a lot of money. ”

"Don't be afraid to spend money!" Mei Shi stood up excitedly, turned out the key to the treasury where he stored his dowry and handed it to Ye Chengshu, "How much does the master need, just take it, as long as he can save his father." She thought about it, and turned out more than a dozen land deeds and handed them to Ye Chengshu, "These are some shops and houses, if they are not enough, the master will sell these." ”

Ye Chengshu felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, how rich Mei's dowry was, he knew, but there was a father-in-law before, he didn't dare to fight the idea of these dowries, at most, he got a jade pendant or inkstone or other small things from here, and now, all the dowries are in his hands.

He tried his best to control his expression so that Mei Shi could not see the clues, "Don't worry, I will definitely do my best to rescue my father-in-law." ”

Another day later, Ye Qian went to King Yu's Mansion early and accompanied him to attend the full moon banquet of King Pingjun's son.

King Pingjun is the cousin of King Yu, six years older than King Yu, he is a gentle and elegant person, he didn't expect King Yu to come, he was very enthusiastic, Ye Qian went to the inner courtyard, and saw the chubby little doll.

"This kid is so cute." Ye Qian smiled and praised, she just looked at it from the side, but she didn't reach out to hug it, since she had a younger brother, she knew that she didn't want to hug children if they didn't look at their cuteness. For example, sometimes someone from the family wants to hug her younger brother, but she is afraid that others will not be skilled and make her younger brother uncomfortable.

Princess Ping was in her twenties, born gentle and dignified, wearing a red peony pattern silk jacket skirt, the bright red lining her face was excellent, and the jade pendant hanging on her ears was refreshingly green. This is already her second son, she didn't rush at all to deal with it, and greeted Ye Qian with a smile elegantly to drink tea, "Don't look at this kid is honest now, it's when he is asleep, if he is hungry, he can cry on the roof." ”

Ye Qian smiled: "Children are like this, and my younger brother is just born, as long as he is hungry, he will cry, and he will not stop if he doesn't eat." ”

"No, so is our eldest family."

After gossiping for a while, other people came one after another, after all, they were not very familiar, Ye Qianluo sat down, and left with King Yu.

"Did Qianqian see that child?" In the carriage, King Yu held Ye Qian's hand and looked at her carefully, as if he wanted to know if she liked the child or not.

Ye Qian felt that something seemed wrong with him, and he couldn't see anything, so he nodded, "See, he was sleeping when I went, he was very honest, he looked cute, he didn't look like Princess Ping, he should look like King Ping, I think he and Brother Yan are also a little similar." "After all, they are all from the royal family, and it's normal to look like them.

King Yu naturally knew what the child looked like, in his previous life, the child became the son of him and Qianqian, and he didn't know how many years he spent with the two of them in the palace. However, in his previous life, when he succeeded the child, the children were ten years old, because Qianqian was born infertile and couldn't have a child after trying for a long time, and he didn't want to take a concubine, so he simply succeeded a son. In this life, he wants to let Qianqian know that child as soon as possible, meet with that child often, maybe he can cultivate feelings earlier, and when the time comes, he can also pass on early, so that Qianqian and the child are like real mothers and sons.

"Does Qianqian like him?" King Yu asked.

Ye Qian always felt that he had a sense of caution, and seemed to be worried that he didn't like it, "I like it, children are very cute, but he is still not as cute as Brother Shuo." In her eyes, her younger brother is the cutest child.

"I'll bring Qianqian more in the future, and when I get along, Qianqian will definitely like it more." It's a pity that Brother Shuo'er is not a royal child after all, and there is no way to pass it, even if he does, he can't stop the mouths of those ministers. In his previous life, he didn't want to succeed the children of his three elder brothers, so he chose King Pingjun.

Although he was a little puzzled why he wanted to let him like that little child, Ye Qian still nodded and agreed, after all, she had always trusted him.
