Chapter 178: Relic
"You two had a nice conversation." Ye Shi looked at Ye Liuli and spoke softly. Ye Liuli looked up at the Ye family and showed a light smile: "Imperial sister-in-law, I grew up with Brother Che since childhood, and we have a deep relationship, so I want to help Brother Che."
"You're a sweet girl." Ye nodded.
"Liuli ......" Su Che couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Ye Liuli had a very good relationship with his imperial sister-in-law, and then hugged Ye Liuli tightly in his arms.
"Ruri, let's go over there." Su Che looked at Ye Liuli, who frowned slightly: "Brother Che, it's inconvenient now." Su Che was slightly stunned: "Are you uncomfortable?" After finishing speaking, he hurriedly ordered the people next to him to call the imperial doctor.
"Ruri, how are you? Does it matter?" Seeing Su Che's nervous inquiry, Ye Shi hurriedly held her hand comfortingly: "Don't worry, you stupid boy, Liuli is just hungry and wants to eat something to cushion her stomach."
Su Che nodded suddenly in understanding, and then looked at her apologetically: "Liuli, I'm sorry. Just ......"
"What are you doing with me apologizing? It's not your fault, and I'm sitting here today thanks to Brother Che's blessing, so I should thank Brother Che." Ye Liuli glanced at Su Che, and when she saw that the sadness between his eyebrows had subsided, she couldn't help but smile. When Su Che heard this, a warm current surged in his heart: "Liuli, thank you, thank you for being willing to be by my side."
"What stupid thing Brother Che said, you are the person I love the most, shouldn't I be by your side!"
"Well, yes, yes." Su Che's gaze became softer and softer as he looked at Ye Liuli, and then looked at the people at the banquet and said, "Everyone, tonight is the marriage banquet of the son of this world, everyone, please have fun, I will miss the company first!" After Su Che finished speaking, he left the hall with his arms around Ye Liuli's waist.
After Su Che hugged her waist and left, Su Che whispered in her ear: "This is the third uncle's birthday banquet, you should be patient, and when my father and mother and concubine come back, I will immediately take you into the palace to meet my father and mother."
"Brother Che, don't worry, I just want to test it."
"Well, I'm sure you won't mess around. Let's go, I'll take you to something delicious." Su Che took Ye Liuli towards the kitchen, and the chef had already laid out the dishes as instructed. Su Che beckoned Ye Liuli to sit down, and then put a dish with chopsticks into her bowl: "Eat more, look at you thin."
"Okay, I've got it all down." Ye Liuli ate obediently, Su Che looked at her with a smile, her eyes were full of tenderness and sweetness.
At the banquet
"Master, the relationship between this Prince Chen and this Princess Li is really good, envy the slave." The grandmother beside Aunt Liu approached Aunt Liu and whispered. Aunt Liu raised her head when she heard this, and her eyes fell on the two of them. At this moment, Su Che and Ye Liuli were talking and laughing, and their smiles were extremely bright. Su Che saw Aunt Liu looking over, raised his wine glass and toasted Aunt Liu.
"I wish the master and the third brother and sister a hundred years of happiness!" Su Che raised the wine glass, Ye Shi also raised the wine glass in response, and the two simply drank the wine in their hands.
"Daughter-in-law Che, you are weak, and the third aunt will drink this glass of wine for you." Su Che's third aunt said with a smile, and Ye Liuli didn't shirk it, and drank the wine.
"Liuli likes to eat fish, and Che'er specially explained the steamed sea bass and sweet and sour fish prepared by the kitchen, which are personally handled by the husband." The third aunt smiled and filled Ye Liuli with a bowl of fish soup and handed it to Ye Liuli.
"Thank you, Aunt San!" Ye Ruri took the fish soup with a sweet smile.
Aunt Liu looked at the happy picture in front of her, her face was a little stiff, but she quickly returned to normal. He took a sip of the teacup in his hand, with a gentle smile on his face.
"Che'er, this princess of Li has a noble status, our Su Mansion is not worthy of her identity, if this spreads, I am afraid it will affect your reputation."
Su Che listened to Aunt Liu's words, his face was slightly gloomy, he snorted coldly, and then grabbed Ye Liuli's wrist: "Third aunt, don't forget, Liuli is the righteous daughter recognized by Prince Chen, this generation is noble, how can you ordinary people talk about it?"
"Che'er, I don't mean anything else. It's just ......."
"Okay, don't talk about it, it's not your turn to worry about my marriage, I'll talk to him when the third uncle comes back."
Su Che finished speaking
, directly took Ye Liuli and left from the sight of Aunt Liu and everyone.
"Dad, look at this ......" The third prince frowned and looked at Su Che's departing back, his face was ugly: "This evil obstacle is really confused by this little cheap hoof."
"Your Royal Highness, don't be impatient, since the old minister has already proposed it, he must have a plan, and he will never let him mess around."
When the third prince heard what Su Tao said, he was relieved: "Third uncle, my nephew has not congratulated you on your promotion."
"Haha, how can the third uncle, He De, still bother the third prince to go and congratulate him in person? If the Taifu hears about it, he will definitely feel that the third uncle is proud and complacent, hehe......
"The third uncle is serious, the third uncle is the pillar of the country, and the nephew should go to congratulate him."
"If it weren't for my body and bones dragging down your third uncle's career, the third uncle would have already become an official and a savior." Su Tao sighed, quite helpless.
"The third uncle doesn't have to worry, the nephew believes that the third uncle will have a prosperous official fortune sooner or later." When Su Tao heard the words of the third prince, his heart became even more ironed, and he shook his head again and again.
"Third Uncle, do you know why my father asked Third Uncle to go to the frontier this time?" Su Tao looked at the third prince suspiciously: "Could it be that the emperor wants the third uncle to go through the training?"
"That's not it, the third uncle might as well think about it carefully, there may be some deep meaning hidden in this." Su Che reminded. When Su Tao heard this, he fell into deep thought, and after a long time, his eyes suddenly widened: "Could it be that my father is deliberately tempering me?"
"The third uncle is wise." Su Che smiled faintly.
"Third prince, I'm afraid this matter is a bit tricky."
"Oh? Did the third uncle think of anything?" Su Che raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Tao when he heard this, and Su Tao hesitated slightly.
"If the third uncle believes in his nephew, he will tell him something."
"Okay, the third uncle will tell you the truth, your father and father were sworn brothers at the beginning, and they have been mutually beneficial and supportive of each other over the years. The prince born to the queen was not the crown prince, but the third prince. It was only later that the queen died of illness, and your father replaced the crown prince with the fourth prince in order to protect the three princes and the royal bloodline. But who knew that the ambition of the four princes and wolves assassinated the prince, and after your father was injured, he was sent to the fief to recuperate, but he didn't expect that the queen actually set up a bureau to kill the prince and the four princes when she was dying, and blamed our Su family! Only then did the third uncle take advantage of the opportunity to seize the crown prince, and at the same time marry your mother and become the new crown prince."
"Third Uncle is saying that the queen killed the crown prince?"
"That's right, when I was looking for evidence in the capital with your father, I didn't know who was behind the trouble, and I actually blamed our Su family for the death of the prince. Although the queen is deceased, the emperor has been haunted by us all these years and is quite suspicious of us."
"I see! It's no wonder that our Su family's situation has become more and more difficult over the years, and even almost broke its foundation!"
"Yes, fortunately, there is a virtuous son-in-law who is helping to let the Su family get through this difficulty."
"Father, the child thinks that his father has arranged it like this, and there must be something else to it. After all, the crown prince has just ascended the throne, and the court is still unstable, so how can the emperor easily move the Su family." Su Che shook his head and said that he did not agree with Su Tao's words.
Su Tao also nodded, and then asked, "Then Che'er, do you know how to choose the heir of this prince?"
"According to my nephew, the current eldest grandson of the emperor is the most suitable to be the crown prince. It's just ......" Su Che's voice paused, Su Tao listened, his eyes flashed for a moment, and after looking around, he lowered his voice and said, "Do you know who the biological mother of the emperor's eldest grandson is?"
"What does the third uncle mean?" Su Che's eyes showed a look of doubt. Su Tao looked at Su Che like this, and sighed slightly: "The identity of this crown princess should not be known to outsiders."
"Nephew understood! Third uncle, rest assured, Che'er will be tight-lipped!"
Su Che and Su Tao talked for a long time, and only when it was time to eat did they disperse. Su Che sat on the main seat with Ye Liuli and looked at a group of warblers and warblers below.
"Che'er, why are you so late, this Yao girl is hungry." Ning looked at the two of them belatedly and worriedly asked.
"Third uncle, don't worry, I'm just delayed on the road." Su Che looked at Ye Liuli, reached out to clasp her little hand, and explained softly. Ye Liuli smiled lightly at Ning's family, obediently
Qiao said: "Third aunt, I am indeed a little hungry."
"The third aunt ordered someone to put the meal on the table quickly." Su Che listened, and a doting smile appeared on his face: "Okay, listen to the third aunt's orders."
The grandmother who was standing on the side heard Su Che's address to Ning's family, her expression changed slightly, and when she looked at Ning's family, her face was a little more cautious.
This Su Che seems to be even more powerful than they expected! Dare to call the old lady's maiden name, this is an disrespectful crime.
Su Che noticed Mama's strange appearance, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a faint sarcasm. How Mrs. Su treated her and the Ning family is obvious to all.
Ning looked at Mama's expression, and secretly hated in his heart, this old thing is really bullying the soft and afraid of the hard.
"Che'er, why don't you eat it?" After Su Che came back to his senses, he looked at his empty plate: "Hey, why don't you have mine?" Su Che looked at Ning in surprise and then at Ye Liuli.
"Neither do I." Ye Liuli glanced at the food on the table: "These are all prepared by your third aunt?"
"Well, the third aunt personally cooked today and personally made a bowl of mutton potstickers for you." Su Che picked up the potsticker and handed it to Ye Liuli, Ye Liuli was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "The third aunt did it? The mutton potstickers made by the third aunt taste the best, you can taste it!"
"Okay." Su Che took a bite of the potsticker, and looked at Ning with sparkling eyes: "Third aunt, it's so fragrant!"
"Huh...... If you like it, eat more, the potstickers are easy to digest."
"Thank you, Aunt San." Su Che said gratefully again, and then buried his head in eating the potstickers in the bowl. Su Che's actions attracted everyone's attention, this era is extremely harsh on women, unless it is a woman with a particularly prominent family background can enter the palace as a lady, but such a woman also needs to learn the rules of the palace, and is only allowed to stay in the palace for one month a month.
And like Ning's family, he can be in charge of the internal affairs of a mansion independently, and there are no rules, which makes all the young ladies envious. And Ning's craftsmanship is really good, people who are usually used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas can't help but praise a few words when they eat what Ning's makes.
Su Che and Ye Liuli ate with relish, and Ning, who was sitting at the top, also smiled, looking at the two of them with a loving gaze.
After finishing the meal, Ye Liuli pulled Su Che out of the main hall and walked around the outer courtyard before returning to the room.
"Third prince, third young master, this is what the lady asked the slave to hand over to the third young grandmother."
Ye Liuli took the box and opened it, looking at the pair of jade bracelets placed inside, she was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Su Che: "Third prince, this is the only relic left to me by my mother."
"If you like it." Su Che touched Ye Liuli's head: "When you return to the imperial capital, I will accompany you back to Su Mansion."
Ye Liuli was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then nodded with red eyes: "Thank you, Third Prince."
"Silly girl, we don't need to say thank you, you take it first, I'll ask my father for instructions in the evening, and try to leave for back as soon as possible."
