Chapter 650: The Wheel of Fortune
As soon as Marshal Ye's voice fell, there was silence in the imperial study, and the atmosphere was gradually depressed to the extreme, and everyone's breathing involuntarily slowed down a lot.
An imperceptible cold light flashed in the depths of the second prince's eyes, although the old marshal Ye said politely, but the attitude was obvious that he chose to refuse, and he chose to refuse when he shouldn't have refused, he undoubtedly looked down on himself at all, otherwise he wouldn't have been so simple.
What a ...... An old fellow who doesn't know how to lift!
"Father-in-law......" The second prince was interrupted by a wave of Marshal Ye as soon as he spoke.
I only heard him say lightly: "Second prince, please respect yourself, you and I are not a son-in-law, these four words the old minister can't afford it." ”
The second prince's eyes were full of coldness, but he squeezed out a smile on his face and said: "Okay, Marshal Ye, you said that Ning'er is still young, this prince can wait, she wants to pursue martial arts, and this prince can also accompany her, when does she want to get married and then get married, but today there happens to be a father and the emperor and all the important ministers and fathers to testify, how about setting down the family affairs first?"
Everyone looked at Marshal Ye, the second prince had already taken a step back, and did not ask to marry the county lord of Changle now, and at the same time faintly used the Yang Emperor to put pressure on him, only asking for engagement, would he still choose to refuse?
Old Marshal Ye sneered in his heart, if he made a family appointment, how could there be room for change in the future, for the second prince, what he wanted was not Ning Er's body at all, but the entire Ye family, it didn't matter if he couldn't get the marriage, of course, if he could get Ning Er's body, he would be very happy, but if he couldn't get it, he could also achieve his goal, it seemed that he had taken a step back, but in fact, he took retreat as advance, and even implied threats and was aggressive!
Although the cold of the second prince is very hidden, Marshal Ye has heard that the second prince is arrogant, indifferent, and broad-minded, not to mention that he is a generation of military gods, a ruthless man who fights and crawls on the battlefield, and his perception of danger is extremely keen, and he clearly feels a faint chill in the back of his head, and it is very likely that the second prince has killed him!
Such a person, not only is his mind not broad-minded enough, he is simply narrow-minded and flawed, even if he follows him, he will not have a good life, how could Marshal Ye let Ning'er jump into the fire pit?
Even if it is Emperor Yang's decree today, don't blame him, an old guy, for resisting the decree once!
Old Marshal Ye's eyes were cold, and he was about to speak, but Emperor Yang suddenly interrupted this strange silent atmosphere, and said: "Okay, this is a lifelong event, you can't be sloppy, the old marshal feels sorry for his granddaughter, and it is normal to have concerns, and the second marshal also understands his intentions, I will discuss this matter with the old marshal, you all retreat first." ”
"Yes!
After everyone saluted, they slowly retreated, and the second prince still had an unwilling look on his face, but he also knew that if he continued to entangle, he was afraid that he would tear his face, so Emperor Yang would stop it in time, and let everyone retreat, leaving only Marshal Ye alone.
Thinking of this, the second prince retreated indifferently, and the fourth prince caught up from behind and said with relief: "The second emperor brother doesn't have to be discouraged, the father will definitely stand on the side of the imperial brother, with his old man as the matchmaker, the old marshal Ye is just a symbolic resignation, after all, the Ye family has been passed down from generation to generation, just such a granddaughter, can't it be sent out so easily, right?"
At this point, he said as if unintentionally: "What's more, there is no grass at the end of the world, as the second emperor's brother, the beauty who wants to be the second princess is afraid that she can go around the border, and the Ye family has always ranked first in the family by virtue of her previous meritorious talents, in terms of strength, the other nine families will not be inferior to the Ye family, and there are more ladies in the country than the Ye family, this woman is actually the same, as long as the raw rice is cooked and matured, it is best to let her get pregnant again, and she is not dead to you?"
The second prince paused, and said indifferently: "Where did you hear about these messy things, the dignified son, you know that you are fooling around with indiscriminate women, and if you want your father to know, the court staff is indispensable." ”
"Hey, the little brother just said casually, let the royal brother not be too persistent, since the imperial brother doesn't like to listen, the younger brother won't say it in the future. The four princes smiled and left.
The second prince stopped in place, his face calm, not knowing what he was thinking, and after a while, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, but it was only a moment, and he strode away.
In the imperial study, only Emperor Yang and Marshal Ye were left, and the oppressive atmosphere before no longer existed, and Emperor Yang even stepped down from the dragon chair and looked at Marshal Ye three steps away.
The ancients had a cloud: when the husband is angry, blood is splashed five steps.
Therefore, the distance between the emperor and others is generally maintained at a distance of more than five steps, which is the same in the martial arts world and the secular world, as a qualified emperor can not always be high, there is always a need to show closeness to people, once someone approaches the distance within five steps without permission, they will immediately be regarded as assassins, and the head will fall to the ground in an instant.
Although Marshal Ye's cultivation realm is impossible to threaten him no matter how close he gets, Emperor Yang's move undoubtedly shows his great trust in Marshal Ye.
"The second child is too reckless, I will make amends to you for him. Yang Huang said.
Marshal Ye was flattered and hurriedly said: "Don't dare, the second prince also wants to spread the branches for the royal family, so he was in a hurry, and the old minister didn't take it to heart." ”
"That's good. ”
Emperor Yang nodded, and said: "There is no one else here, so I will not shy away from it, I want to know, why do you refuse to agree to this marriage? You should know that the Ye family is now difficult to support alone, and marrying the royal family is a good choice." ”
"As for the problem of the Ye family's incense, the second child also proposed a solution, and I can also agree. ”
Old Marshal Ye thought for a while and said: "Don't hide it from the emperor, if you change it to the eldest prince or the third prince to make this request, even if they already have a princess, Ning Er can only marry as a concubine, and the old minister is willing to agree to this family business, but the second prince, the emperor should feel it, after the old minister refused him, he actually had murderous intentions towards the old minister, such a person, how to teach the old man to marry Ning Er with confidence?"
Hearing this, Emperor Yang smiled slightly bitterly: "What you said didn't save me face at all." ”
"This matter is not negotiable! You just killed the old minister, and the old minister will not let Ning Er jump into the fire pit!" Old Marshal Ye said resolutely, that posture was like hob meat, and oil and salt did not enter.
"Okay, you don't want to, can I force you to fail?" Emperor Yang said helplessly, "But don't say that to the outside world, if the second child does something extreme, I will still have a headache." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Old Marshal Ye hurriedly thanked him as if he was afraid that he would regret it, leaving Emperor Deyang speechless for a while.
"I'm going to review the recital, you can wait for an hour before you go out. Emperor Yang walked up to the high platform again, sat back on the dragon chair, picked up the fold on the dragon case, opened it and looked at it.
Old Marshal Ye did not refuse, the longer he stayed, the more they discussed, creating a false impression that the negotiations might be completed, if he left after a while and a half, people would definitely think that the talks had collapsed.
No matter how unbearable the second prince is, he is also the heir of the Yang Emperor, and he is also one of the most influential princes of the dynasty, the Yang Emperor is willing to understand the difficulties of the Ye family, so he naturally can't make it difficult for the Yang Emperor, and the conflict with the second prince can be avoided.
I hope that kid is interesting, don't touch his bottom line, otherwise......
......
"Here's for you!"
Shui Nianyu handed a jade box to Yang Yan, he stretched out his hand to take it, and there were mysterious runes around the jade box that sealed all the breath, but he could faintly feel that there was an extremely amazing energy contained in it, and couldn't help asking, "What is this?"
"The Yin and Yang Creation Pill you wanted, grandpa asked me to give it to you, I almost forgot it before. Shui Nianyu said lightly.
"Yin Yang Creation Pill!" Yang Yan's eyes were shocked, looking at the jade box in his hand, there was no trace of gravity, but he felt that it was as heavy as ten thousand pounds, Yin and Yang Creation Pill, the legendary six-grade spirit pill, Tian Lao gave it to himself.
Tian Lao is also from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the Six-Rank Spirit Pill is a legendary thing in the Qianyu, but it may not be anything to the Heavens, but the value of the Six-Rank Spirit Pill is real, and this Yin and Yang Creation Pill is extremely important to Yang Yan, this is a supreme treasure that can save lives, and he owes Heaven too much......
"What are you still doing in a daze, isn't your elder still waiting for it to save his life?" Shui Nianyu pushed him and urged.
"Hmm. ”
Yang Yan nodded, put the jade box into the Sumeru ring, carried the long sword on his back and changed into a green long skirt, and walked out of the courtyard side by side, and gently closed the courtyard door.
The moment the courtyard door closed, an unprecedented emotion surged into her heart, Shui Nianyu looked at the house in a daze, she had lived here for hundreds of years, brick by brick, and even a speck of dust, she was extremely familiar, but now she wanted to say goodbye to everything that was familiar, and rushed to a new strange and mysterious world full of unknowns, and she didn't know if there would be a chance to return here in the future......
"There will be a chance. Yang Yan seemed to know what she was thinking, and said lightly but firmly: "It has always been here, when we all become strong, and when we find Tianlao, we will come back." ”
Because, for him, this is also a very special existence, is the only pure land in his heart, only here, his heart can really settle down, unrestrained, only be himself, and only need to be himself.
"I've never left here, and I've always thought that having this place is enough, but grandpa is gone, and I'm leaving, everything in the outside world is so strange, and I don't even have the courage to go out without you. ”
Shui Nianyu whispered, suddenly turned his head, stared at Yang Yan's eyes with clear eyes and said: "The most important person in this life, I only know grandpa and you, grandpa is not here, I can only rely on you, you will always be there, right?"
Yang Yan stared at her bright eyes, his shining eyes were full of expectation, he seemed to feel the dazedness and uneasiness in Shui Nianyu's heart in a trance, and felt the weakness of her who was still strong at this moment after suffering from the torture of the origin of the ghost qi, a ripple was set off in his heart, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and his gaze was unprecedentedly gentle.
The ghost makes the god bad, usually dislikes others to touch his Yang Yan, took the initiative to reach out and hold the pair of soft and boneless jade hands, held them tightly, looked at her delicate and flawless face seriously, and said solemnly: "Until I find Tianlao, I will always be by your side!"
When Yang Yan's warm hands held herself, Shui Nianyu's anxious heart instantly settled down, her bright eyes seemed to melt into water, and asked, "Then what about after finding grandpa, will you still be there?"
"Let's go. Yang Yan didn't answer this question, maybe he couldn't answer it himself, everyone has their own way to go, his way, Shui Nianyu's road, because of the existence of Tian Lao, intersected or even coincided, but in the end, it always coincided, or gradually drifted apart, and finally parted ways, who can know?
But at least, they are inseparable until they find the old man, and their fates are inextricably linked.
Yang Yan and Shui Nianyu walked on the grass, each of them let go of one hand, but the two hands that were close to each other between them were still holding tightly, and no one let go.
The glowing sun reflected on the golden boy and girl holding hands, and two long shadows were drawn on the grass behind them, leaning on each other, walking across the meadow, over the bridge, across the river, through the mountain path, and walking farther and farther until the small courtyard farmhouse was no longer visible......
