if he can't leave the mountain. He could just stay with his master in the valley for the rest of his life. That's better than living at home. 。He has never been able to get his way with this child, a...Quán Qīngchéng was about to pull his hair out. He called several times but no one listened to him.
"The Third Prince, Qing Yun, snorted coldly and shouted loudly, "Stop it all! This is the court hall. Look at how you all behave!" He then looked at the two Chief Ministers, "Shouldn't the two ministers set an example Just standing here watching the commotion isn't very good, is it Are you watching the officials make a spectacle of themselves, or are you watching the Emperor's joke"
Both prime ministers felt embarrassed, so they quickly joined in. The left prime minister said: "Night Four Sister has done her duty to the country and benefited the people. In the future, she will definitely be rewarded for her merits. But the most urgent task is how to appease her anger and get her to offer the second pill to cure those who have not been cured of their root causes."
The Right Minister said, "The Li family has made contributions to the country but committed crimes against the people. Their merits and demerits balance out, so they should not be put to death. Moreover, they are the maternal family of the Empress Dowager of the Western Palace. It would be better to have them return double the silver earned from selling the pills and compensate every household that bought the medicine."
Quan Qingyun added, "Let's just take over Li family's clinic!"
There is no doubt about this.
Then Quan Qingyun added: “After receiving it, I’ll give it to Ye Si.”
As soon as this was said, people began to discuss why the Third Prince had repeatedly spoken up for the Fourth Miss that night. The two were not on good terms, weren't they They didn't seem to get along at all. How could he be so proactive in arranging a medical clinic for the Fourth Miss Could it be that the Third Prince was interested in her too Just because she was beautiful That shouldn't be right! The Third Prince was with the Second Young Master of the Ye family...
This morning's court session was somewhat chaotic but still maintained a semblance of order. Although Qingcheng wasn't in control, he managed to get things done and found a way to address the issue with the Li family.
Actually, Qingcheng knew deep down that the officials were right. The Li family was the mother's family of the Empress Dowager Xi, and it wouldn't do to completely disregard them. To do so would mean openly declaring that the Emperor had fallen out with Empress Dowager Li. In this situation, it would be unwise.
But he also couldn't let it go too easily, because that would not only embarrass him but also his sister Wen Yan. Moreover, he wouldn't be able to explain himself to the people in the inner city.
Fortunately, his third older brother pressured the Left and Right Ministers to declare their stance, so the matter was settled.
But he also had guesses like the courtiers, why did his third brother suddenly speak up for Sister Wen Yan The two didn't have much of a relationship, did they Could it be that he was really taken with Sister Wen Yan That would be courting death!
After court, Quan Qingcheng, remembering last night's conversation with Ye Wenyuan, swaggered to the mansion of the first rank general and met Ye Wenyuan who had already returned. Then, he swaggered away. Soon after, a second batch of pills was sent from the palace to every resident in the inner city who was suffering from a relapse of their old ailment.
It is rumored that this medicine was personally obtained by the Emperor from the residence of a first-rank general. It shows the Emperor's deep care for his people, that he would even set aside his imperial status and personally request it to gain Ye Si Jie's forgiveness.
Night Sister Four was also a good person, not holding grudges. She took out the pills and didn't ask for a single copper coin. These pills were all bought by Night Sister Four herself with her own money, and after being improved and processed, they became effective medicines.
Here, both the Emperor and Ye Sijie are benefactors. Everyone should be grateful to both parties and never show favoritism.
Some people also point out another rhythm, that since the new emperor ascended the throne, it has always been the regent who assisted in government. However, things have happened one after another. Now that the regent is seriously injured at home recovering from illness, the imperial court affairs are all handled by the emperor himself. Not only has there not been chaos, but things have been getting better and better. Regarding this matter of medicine, the regent didn't even bother with us, but instead the emperor personally left the palace to seek medicine for us. This shows that the regent's regency hasn't played any real role, it's better if the emperor handles things himself!
This wave of momentum, in just a couple of days, pushed Quan Qingcheng's prestige and authority to its peak, while simultaneously dragging the once-celebrated Regent down to the lowest point.
When this news reached the Prince Regent's Mansion, Quan Ji didn't eat a single bite of his meal out of anger.
Every night, Ye Wen went into the palace to see Shi Lifen. Bai stayed at home waiting. The news that the Li family father and daughter had been released was brought back by Ji Mama. The above rumors circulating in the market were told to her by Zhuier. Xiangdong and she were both listeners. After hearing all this, Xiangdong asked: "The Li family father and daughter were just released like this, can Jie's anger subside"
Ye Wen looked at the deed to Li's clinic and land deeds handed over by Ji Mama, smiled: "There is nothing to gain or lose. There was no much anger in the first place. In my view, those methods of the Li family are nothing but vulgar tricks, not surprising at all."
Although some people outside are thanking her, this credit ultimately goes to the Emperor. Xiangdong sighed, “I don’t mind not getting credit for it, but I’m afraid that people might think Sister did this out of pressure. It’s fine if they aren’t grateful, but if they turn around and resent us, that wouldn’t be good.”
Ye Wen, hearing this, simply said: "If going through this ordeal can allow that child to grow, then I am willing to exchange some of my own gains and losses for his growth. Besides, those things were never really important to me anyway."
She didn't want to discuss the topic any further. She was tired and just wanted to rest, so she excused herself from the group and slumped back in a soft armchair.
With a thought, a flower was summoned from the storage bracelet. She held it in her palm, gently lifted it upward, and the flower floated up, unfolding a veil before her eyes.
The screen is filled with the atmosphere of the Ye family's former home, where everyone lived in the large house, coming and going, stopping and walking.
She saw a young man who looked just like Quan Qingcheng. It was her cousin, Ye Qingcheng, when he was younger.
The Ye family had a private school, exclusively for Ye's children, but most of those who went to school were girls, with very few boys.
The screen only showed images, no sound. She saw Ye Qingcheng standing in front of her, opening and closing his mouth as if talking. Although she couldn't hear the words, she knew that Qingcheng was asking her: Why are there so few boys from your circle
What was her answer back then I think it was something like: Maybe they think girls are easier to raise and can wear pretty clothes, so they prefer having daughters.
At that time, the night belonged to the city, where no one understood the difference between boys and girls, let alone that they weren't entirely in control of their destinies. He didn't even know that his family followed a lineage of single heirs for generations, his father merely an adopted son brought home by his grandfather. Believing her words, he thought everyone loved obedient and well-behaved children, so he stopped being mischievous. He diligently studied, walked properly, and always kept his clothes clean. He never played in the mud again on rainy days, nor rolled in the snow during winter.
A boy, through hard work, trained himself to be as graceful as a young woman.
She missed her past life dearly, longing for the grand Night family estate and the ever-present Night Qingcheng who trailed behind her. That's why when facing Quan Qincheng, she couldn't help but want to lend a hand.
There are countless coincidences in life. She knew the young emperor of Northern Qi wasn't the child from her past life, but what if What if he forgot everything Otherwise, how could they possibly coincidentally resemble each other so much, with such similar names She didn't expect him to ever remember anything, best if he forgot everything. That way, it would truly be a new beginning.
Unlike her, with two lifetimes of experience and memories, everyone knows Night Four Sister as domineering and unrestrained. Yet, they don't know that now, within her recollections, there is endless pain, the deafening sound of gunfire, and blood staining the ground...
With a bang! The door was suddenly burst open. The spirit-formed screen dissipated in an instant with the impact, revealing Ye Qingcheng who was gazing at her with a pair of peach blossom eyes and a dazzling smile.
The more she longed for that smile, the more she hated the person who had barged in. Her fists clenched tightly, fighting desperately to control the urge to strangle him. And as if on purpose, the intruder enraged her further with his first words: "You bitch!"
It was a long, dark night.
Behind them, Ji MuMu, Zhu'er, and Xiangdong arrived. Ji MuMu immediately asked, "Master, do you want to throw the person out"
It's a habit of Zhuai'er to immediately go for the brick: “If you dare scold my elder sister, I’ll beat you to death.”
Yet Wen did not respond to anyone's words, only shook his head and waved his hand, ordering everyone else to retreat. He then glanced at Ye Lianmian and, suppressing his anger, asked, "What on earth are you doing"
Night has been relentless, truly driving him mad. His features are contorting, his eyes bulging nearly out of their sockets.
She pointed at Ye Wenyan: “It’s all your fault! You’ve repeatedly annoyed Second Uncle’s family and even Grandma. Now I have to suffer because of you too! I was living comfortably with Grandma, I've always lived by her side since I was young, but because of your mistakes, Grandma drove me back here as well. Ye Wenyan, you wretch! You don't want to improve and yet you drag me down. Why Why don’t you just die Why does this family even have someone like you”
Ye Lianmian almost roared, her face flushed red, "Don't think everyone is afraid of you, I'm not! Ye Wenyan, from the moment you were born, you've received the most love. You have it better than all of us. Why Is it because you're good-looking Is it because your grandfather won a great victory when you were born But you've already received the most love from your grandfather, why do you still fight us for our parents Why does everyone only favor you and neglect others What kind of magic did you use Are you a monster"
"Everyone says Elder Sister is gentle and virtuous, Third Sister is stunningly beautiful, and Fourth Sister is the most beloved. As for me, this legitimate second sister, no one even mentions me. I'm like that fleeting red makeup, invisible. Why Night Wenyan, did you absorb all the good fortune of this family into yourself"
Ye Wen was starting to not understand. Memories of the original owner flooded his mind, everything from beginning to end.
She was the darling daughter, favored by everyone. Whether it was General Ye Lao or General Ye Da, anything good they had was always given to her in abundance. But in the original owner's memories, things weren't like that, at least not with General Ye Da.
After a long silence, she said: "The night is long and perhaps Grandfather spoils me a little more, but what did my father and mother give me that you haven't had Are you lacking in clothing or jewelry The household provisions are allocated per person, so from the very beginning, you and I, as legitimate daughters, received almost the same things. What do you have to be unfair about I distinctly remember three years ago when my father returned to Beijing from a provincial tour, bringing back some rare items from Lin'an City. When I took two, you insisted on taking three; when I took three, you had to take five. In the end, I was left with only one. Even elder sister's share was given to you. So tell me, who do they favor more"
"That's mine! If I hadn't taken it, would they have given me more"
"Why should I give you more One for each person. Why do you insist on taking more than others" Ye Wenyan's anger had subsided considerably, these words were spoken with a blank expression, and there was not even the slightest fluctuation in his eyes.
Because this wasn't something she had experienced, it was a feud between Ye Si and Ye Lianmian. She was just a spectator after all. If she was truly unhappy about anything, it was Ye Lianmian's sudden intrusion that shattered the illusion of the Ye family from her past life and ruined her cousin's dazzling smile.
It was as if a film one was watching had suddenly been cut off, like an uninvited guest had suddenly appeared in the cinema, disrupting the screening.
Interrupting someone while they are watching a movie is really not a pleasant thing to do…
This is a comment." 。"There are no ghosts in this world," said Ye Fei Zhou, frowning. Quan Qingyun: "The ones making trouble are ghosts." 。"What's on your mind, Ye Fei Zhou" Ye Fei Zhou lowered his head and didn't s...
