This question made Ye Shihan frown. He turned around, raised his hand and pinched the tip of Doudou's nose.
"Then do you want dad to leave you?"
"No." Doudou shook his head without thinking, "I want my father and mother to be with Doudou, so Doudou will be very happy."
"Okay, then daddy will go and beg mommy to let me stay with Doudou. I don't want to leave you either. I won't be happy at all without you."
After saying that, he held Doudou in his arms and looked at Doudou's sleeping face. He suddenly felt like he had regained something. He secretly swore in his heart that no matter what the reason, he would never leave their mother and son. He would owe all these years to
Hers will be replenished together.
In the Imperial City of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the annual Lantern Festival was held as scheduled. All the wives and ladies of the official family came to accompany the Queen Mother to enjoy the lanterns. Because the Queen Mother lost Princess Jiaoyue this year, she was in a bad mood, so the Emperor ordered this
According to the decree, everyone is invited to come to the palace to lively and lively, so as to prevent the Queen Mother from being too sad.
Ye Shihan left a farewell letter to the concubine and disappeared.
This New Year, the concubine was extremely annoyed, and Sun Mengmeng was also restless at home these days.
In order to appease her, the Dowager invited her into the palace and asked her to accompany herself and the Queen Mother to enjoy the lanterns, but she was not happy at all.
"Taifei, where has Your Highness gone?"
She pouted, looking unhappy.
When this issue was mentioned, the concubine's face became a little ugly, because Ye Shihan didn't mention where he was going in the letter. He just said that he was going to find Doudou and that witch, and that he would no longer be the prince, but this call her
How should I tell Mengmeng?
"He has carried out the secret mission assigned to him by the emperor. He will be back soon."
Now she could only make up a lie to deceive Sun Mengmeng. She also believed that Ye Shihan would be back soon.
Sun Mengmeng still grabbed the handkerchief in dissatisfaction, "But the sixth day of the lunar month is the day set by the concubine to get married. If he doesn't come back, then I will become a laughing stock among the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty."
Speaking of this, she actually started crying.
Seeing this, the concubine quickly took her hand and comforted her.
"Don't worry, Mengmeng. As long as I live, I will let him marry you. He won't be away for too long this time. When he comes back, I will let you get married. Don't worry, I only recognize you as my daughter-in-law."
.”
While the two were talking, Xiao Yuanyuan walked towards this side with small steps, accompanied by the girl. When she came to the concubine, she bowed politely.
"Good luck to the concubine, I wish her long happiness and good health."
"Yuanyuan, please forgive me. Why did I just come after seeing you?"
Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes and nodded, "Yes, I didn't plan to come originally. My brother said that all the official ladies are here, so he asked me to join in the fun."
"Yes, it's time to come and join in the fun. It's quite boring for you to be alone. Get to know a few more official ladies here and move around more to kill the boring time."
"What the concubine said is that I just met Miss Sun, so I came over to say hello."
After saying that, she raised her eyes and glanced at Sun Mengmeng, then suddenly looked at her in surprise,
"By the way, the marriage ceremony between Miss Sun and His Highness has been postponed to the sixth day of the lunar month. I would like to congratulate Miss Sun for finally getting her wish."
Hearing this, Sun Mengmeng's face turned red. The two of them had lived in the palace for two months for Ye Shihan. Just when she thought she had finally won, Ye Shihan kept letting her go.
.
It seems that Xiao Yuanyuan came to see her laugh today.
Thinking of this, she reluctantly smiled,
"Thank you, Miss Xiao. Your Highness is busy with official duties. I am about to become his princess, so I will naturally understand him. The last time he went to the mountains to suppress bandits, it was for the imperial court. Even if it delayed the marriage, I will not blame him. I will be his
A woman must understand him."
Although she said it was righteous, in fact she was gnashing her teeth with hatred.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuanyuan showed a look of approval.
"Miss Sun is a righteous person, and I admire Yuanyuan. By the way, why didn't His Highness enter the palace today? I just heard someone said that he went out again?"
Hearing her ask this, the concubine coughed slightly displeasedly,
"Yuanyuan, the queen just came to see you, please go and accompany her."
It seemed that the concubine did not want her to mention this matter, so Xiao Yuanyuan wisely said goodbye to the concubine and went to find the queen.
She left, and Sun Mengmeng's tears began to fall.
"Taifei, what should I do? If His Highness Chu Liu doesn't come back, then I won't be able to live anymore."
After saying that, she waved her handkerchief, covered her face and ran away.
Looking at her back, the concubine let out a long sigh of relief. She wanted to go to the emperor and ask him to issue an order to search for people throughout the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The emperor was also quite annoyed with Ye Shihan's sudden departure, but today was the New Year, so he didn't show it.
When the concubine came to see him, he was drinking and having fun with the concubines. Seeing that the concubine looked ugly, he stopped and asked everyone to retreat.
"What's wrong with Auntie Huang? If you're not happy in the New Year, you won't be in a good mood this year."
The concubine sat down in front of him and waved her sleeves angrily.
"Humph, Han'er has gone too far. Please make an order from the emperor to search for him throughout the country."
The emperor sighed, pondered for a while, shook his head lightly,
"No, if I issue an imperial edict to find Han'er, then the Eastern Jin Kingdom will explode?"
"What should we do?"
The concubine suddenly became a little anxious, "He can't just disappear into thin air as a living person, right? Besides, how can I explain to the Sun family that this is the imperial aunt?"
"Auntie, don't worry." The emperor waved his hand, stood up and walked two steps with his hands behind his back.
"Since he said in his letter that he was looking for Su Mu'er and his son, I will issue another imperial edict offering a reward. If I only find this mother and son, I will naturally find him."
"But the mother and son have been wanted before, but nothing was found."
"Your Majesty's words are wrong. Han'er is missing this time. Unlike last time, I have offered a reward of ten thousand taels. There will always be someone who will help me find him for the reward."
"But even if we find them, what should we do if he refuses to come back? Or what should we do if he hasn't found the mother and son yet and they don't know where they went?"
Hearing the concubine's question, the emperor suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at her,
"Auntie Huang would really rather lose her son than accept that Su Mu'er? Has Auntie Huang forgotten Princess Jiaoyue's lesson?"
Speaking of Princess Jiaoyue, the emperor sighed helplessly and said:
"I just came from my mother. She was crying when she looked at Jiaoyue's relics alone. I think she should regret it. If I had known this earlier, why not agree to her and Su Yuanmin's permission? Isn't it inevitable that something like this would happen?
"
The emperor's words made the concubine's heart sink. If her son committed suicide because of this incident, she would not be able to survive.
But from the bottom of her heart, she still wouldn't accept Su Mu'er.
So she waved her hand and gently rubbed her forehead,
"Let's find someone first and then talk about it. I don't know how to explain it to Miss Sun. How can I consider that witch?"
