The third prince, Ye Huahan, sat in the carriage and twitched the corner of his mouth. He was the most disdainful towards Ye Shihan. If he had not repeatedly stopped him in the court, the eldest prince would have already taken the position of prince. Where would the mute child born to the queen be?
What are the qualifications to be a prince?
Therefore, Ye Shihan is a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh. He wants to find a way to eradicate him, but he has not yet found a handle on him.
Ye Junhan in the other carriage looked very contented. As for the position of prince, his nephew Ye Yunzhe, the third prince of the current emperor, vowed to win it, because his cousin Concubine Shu was currently the most favored by the emperor.
However, Ye Shihan and Ye Huahan were bound together, otherwise why would he go to all this trouble.
Now the imperial court has naturally formed a three-legged posture. What they are most worried about right now is that Ye Shihan will marry the family of General Xiao or the family of Grand Master Sun. No matter which one, his power in the court will be more stable.
When the Meridian Gate opened, the sky was already glowing with light, and the sun was slowly rising from the east.
Liu Hai opened the sedan curtain door, leaned over and said to Ye Shihan: "Your Highness, the time has come."
Ye Shihan frowned, stretched out his hand to straighten his court clothes, stood up and got out of the carriage.
A crowd of people followed his footsteps into the Meridian Gate and went straight to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Su Mu'er stayed in Sujiazhuang yesterday, and she and Dazhou each rode a horse straight to the capital early in the morning.
In order to prevent too many people from knowing about this matter, Su Mu'er and Uncle Hong Shan finally agreed to send the document from Dazhou, which was relatively safer.
In order not to attract other people's attention, she did not enter the government office together with Da Zhou. After the explanation was made, she returned to the shop alone to wait for news.
Bai Chen was a little surprised when he received the obituary document. He frowned and looked at Su Dazhou.
"This Su Riqing is your brother?"
Su Dazhou nodded, "Yes, I was lucky enough to win the Ya Yuan. Maybe I was too happy, so I ran to the village's reservoir to take a bath, and the result... the result..."
Su Dazhou actually choked up when he said this, and Bai Chen couldn't help but marvel at his acting skills.
But Su Mu'er really thought of a way. Looking at the official stamp of Sujiazhuang on the document, Bai Chen pretended to be helpless and nodded.
"Sorry, if that's the case, then the title of Yayuan will have to be filled by the next one."
If Bai Chen hadn't known about this matter for a long time, Su Mu'er wouldn't have dared to do this. If the officials really investigated, the secret would definitely be exposed.
So after this incident, everyone became a grasshopper on a rope.
Ye Shihan left the morning court and followed the emperor directly to the imperial study. The emperor was a little surprised by this.
"Old Qi, you usually avoid me. What happened today? You took the initiative to come to me?"
"Your Majesty, my brother is not hiding from the Emperor. It's just that the Emperor granted me leave recently, so I was lazy and didn't go into the palace to pay his respects to the Emperor. That's why I came here to apologize."
"Oh? I don't think so. Tell me what it is."
The emperor understands him best, and they have had the best relationship since they were young. This may be because their mothers are biological sisters.
Ye Shihan couldn't help but pursed his lips, "I can't do anything unruly to the Emperor. I'm here today to ask the Emperor for a favor."
"Oh?" The emperor suddenly sat up straight with excitement, "Which young lady from the Xiao family and Sun family does Lao Qi like? Can we finally make a conclusion?"
Ye Shihan shook his head helplessly, "I was just about to say this, can the emperor take back my life? I can't control these two women, and they are fighting back and forth in my house all day long. It's really unbearable."
.”
Unbearable to be disturbed?
The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at him, "These two women are the most talented and beautiful women in the capital. I carefully selected them for you. Of course, they also proposed it, but this is something that no one else can ask for.
But you say you can’t bear to be bothered?”
Ye Shihan was a little helpless, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid I'm going to ruin your good intentions. These two women have been quarreling in the house all day long. The emperor even asked me to choose one of them. How can I choose?"
This is simply harder than going to the battlefield to fight."
"Hahaha, you, you, are you not aware of the blessings in the midst of blessings? Well, since you don't know how to choose, I can't arbitrarily issue this imperial edict of marriage. Neither the Xiao family nor the Sun family can
It chills my heart."
The emperor's words were obviously telling him that the emperor was afraid of hurting the hearts of these two loyal ministers, so he pushed the ball to Ye Shihan and asked him to take the lead?
The emperor is really smart.
"But the emperor..."
The emperor waved his hand and did not let him continue, "Well, since you don't know how to choose, let the concubine and the queen mother choose for you. It just so happens that the concubine is thinking about you these days, and the queen mother is also thinking about you."
What?
Ye Shihan suddenly had a bad feeling.
There are two young women in the family. If two old men come here, what will happen?
"Your Majesty, you don't have to. I'd better make my own choice."
"What? You don't want the Queen Mother to stay in your house for a while? The Queen Mother heard that the Queen Mother came back and said that a unique braised egg shop had opened in the capital, so she also thought about it and insisted on staying out of the palace for a few days.
She doesn't want to stay in any other palace, so she has no choice but to go to your palace."
Ye Shihan took a deep breath. The Queen Mother went to stay for a while. How could he say she was not welcome?
"I don't dare. I'm afraid that the Queen Mother won't be used to living there. Since the Queen Mother wants to go, I'll go back to the house and make preparations."
"No need, the Queen Mother and the Dowager Princess have already been prepared and are probably waiting for you. You should hurry up and go."
The emperor looked at him with gloating eyes as he spoke.
Ye Shihan knew that the emperor knew his character best. He was used to living alone outside the palace. He would be very embarrassed if so many people were suddenly placed in the palace.
However, it was difficult to disobey the holy order, so Ye Shihan had no choice but to accept the order and go to the Queen Mother's Shouxian Palace to pick him up.
Sure enough, the Queen Mother and the Dowager Princess had already packed their luggage and were waiting for him to arrive.
Ye Shihan entered the house and was frightened by the battle in front of him before waiting for Tiankou.
"Mother, imperial aunt, who are you?" He pointed at the items placed on the floor in the hall of Shouxian Palace with some surprise.
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at him, "I heard that living in your palace is very comfortable, and you can also eat food that is not available in the palace, so the emperor's aunt is going to live in your palace for a while."
"Then this is too much, isn't it? I don't lack anything in my house. Auntie Huang doesn't need to bring so many things."
Ye Shihan saw that there were two large carriages in this thing, and he couldn't help but worry secretly, where was the Empress Dowager going to stay for a short time? She obviously wanted to stay for a long time?
The concubine took two steps forward happily and said, "Han'er, your imperial aunt has lived in the palace for a long time and is tired of the scenery in the palace, so she wants to live out of the palace for a while. Because she doesn't know how long she will live there, she
She has everything she needs to bring with her, that’s just her habit.”
