Lucky Star Little Maid - C225

Because of this matter, the Fifth Prince Palace and the Xu Family had been discussing for a long time.

The most direct person to do this was the Madame Ye in the Xu Family Room.

If this was according to Madame Ye’s usual personality, she really wouldn’t bother about this matter.

But who told him to marry into the Ye Family? Ye Jingxing, who was about to ascend to the throne, was not only his cousin, but also his husband’s sister and uncle’s son.

Although Madame Ye had a cold personality, she treated her children sincerely.

She knew that her own children could have relied on her father to promote them. However, in the future, they could only count on Ye Jingxing, her uncle.

Thus, on the fifteenth day of the first month of the Lantern Festival, she took the opportunity to visit her own father in the Prince Duan Palace and brought up this matter.

In terms of Xu Family, other than the Xu Shiqiu couple, there was also Xu Nuanwen and Ye Jingxing. Most probably, only she guessed that the man who lived in Xu Yanzhu’s courtyard was her son, the eldest son, Ye Yan, from the Crown Prince’s Cousin.

Although this matter was kept from the family, Madame Ye was, after all, the eldest wife of the Xu Family. There were some things that could be kept from others, but it might not be able to keep from her.

Hence, after leaving the Xu Family house, she pondered for a while, and then took the chance to see the Prince Duan tonight.

After seeing Prince Duan, he naturally did not mention anything about Yan Ye. He only spoke about the hatred between and his Xu Family seriously.

“Father, what exactly happened that year, others may not be clear about it, but you definitely know about it. Xu Family has suffered for so many years, and this time, you can clearly see your enemies getting their retribution, but now, there’s another rumor. ” In the entire Prince Duan Palace, he was the only one who dared to call the Prince Duan ‘father’, and not ‘father’.

It just so happened that Prince Duan liked her as an eldest daughter. It was not only because she was her first child, but also because Madame Ye had lost her mother since she was young, and was sensible enough to take care of her sister-in-law.

Hearing Madame Ye’s words, Prince Duan also let out a long sigh.

The news had already reached outside the palace, so how could he not know?

He didn’t want to guess whether this was true or false, but hearing his eldest daughter’s words, he also understood the meaning of Xu Family.

Xu Family, Ye Jingche and the Liu Family, the current situation was’ if you don’t die, then I die ‘. And it just so happened that on this matter, he did not manage to find any traces of Xu Family trying to scheme against Ye Jingche, so the current situation that Ye Jingche was in, was precisely because he himself had the Liu Family as well as the Zheng Family.

Xu Family could choose not to take the initiative to plot against the prince because of his loyalty to the monarch, but if the prince really did do something wrong, Xu Family would definitely add insult to injury and seek revenge.

In this matter, the Prince Duan really could not say that his Xu Family was wrong.

If it were him, he probably wouldn’t be better off than Xu Family, and might even take the initiative to extend his hand and do something.

It was because he had these thoughts in his heart, in the end, under the expectant gaze of his eldest daughter, he nodded and said, “Don’t worry, father is not a fool. No matter what your royal uncle thinks, father will definitely act according to the law.”

After receiving her own father’s promise, Madame Ye could be considered to be half relieved.

Since they had come to the Prince Duan Palace, the Madame Ye would naturally not only mention this one thing, she had also casually mentioned the matter of’s marriage.

“Father, uncle Huang’s body …” Speaking to here, the Madame Ye paused for a moment, then continued: “I am not speaking nonsense, but Yanhao is not small, and the engagement was delayed for a long time. The date of the marriage was long discussed with the Zhang Family, please do not …”

Madame Ye had not finished speaking, but Prince Duan understood her meaning.

His eldest daughter’s character was very clear to him, and he knew that she viewed his children as important. Thus, in the end, he looked at her and nodded, “The day you have chosen is very good, so just wait for your wife to drink her tea in peace.”

With her father’s words, Madame Ye could finally heave a sigh of relief.

However, the Madame Ye did not know that there were some things that were unexpected.

The Madame Ye took advantage of the Spring Lantern Festival to visit their parents’ home. The other women were not idle either, and as for the men, they naturally contacted many people tonight.

However, because it was the Spring Lantern Festival, the capital city was already bustling with noise and excitement. The commotion caused by them did not attract too much attention.

After all, after today, the new year would be over. Taking advantage of this last day, it was very normal for people to become more lively.

Therefore, no matter how much commotion there was outside the palace, the palace did not receive any news.

Of course, the most important reason was that Prince Duan, who was in charge of this matter, pretended to be mute.

16th of January

The first meeting of the Grand Examination after the opening of the year was just as everyone had predicted. Not only did they discuss a few major matters, they even discussed them from the beginning of the morning until the end of the evening.

Even though he had already prepared himself in advance, the women who were waiting at home for their men to arrive were still anxious, afraid that something would happen to their man during today’s assembly.

Dong Shu was also one of them.

Although she had Old Madame Xu’s advice, Dong Shu could feel that Old Madame Xu was similarly worried. How could she possibly relax?

When it was almost noon, before the palace had even dispersed, Dong Shu looked at Old Madame Xu and asked worriedly: Mother, do you think that we can fulfill our wish in today’s assembly?

Old Madame Xu’s heart was in a mess right now. She had wanted to console Dong Shu, but when she didn’t have her son and didn’t hear any news, she knew that she was in a really bad mood today.

Thinking up to here, the Old Madame Xu looked directly at Dong Shu and said, “It’s good that we did our best in this matter.

Although Old Madame Xu said this, she understood in her heart that with Emperor Ruikang’s personality, as long as no one supported him on this matter, he would not be so persistent.

After all, what Ye Jingche and the Liu Family had done almost shook the country.

The Old Madame Xu had some understanding of the Emperor Ruikang. At the beginning of the morning assembly today, the Emperor Ruikang asked him about her age and didn’t want to see her son walk in front of him again.

But when he said that, before anyone else could say anything, Prince Duan took a step forward, looked at him and said: “I can understand why royal brother can’t bear to part with his own son. However, the laws of the country, as well as the imperial court, Ye Jingche, the Liu family, and the Zheng family, all of these things that they had done nearly shook the country. royal brother, you are not only my father, but also my dynasty’s emperor.

Only Empress Hu would dare to say such words that didn’t give face to the Emperor Ruikang. And only Prince Duan, His Majesty’s younger brother, would dare to say such words in front of all the subjects in the imperial court.

Since the Emperor Ruikang had recognized one thing, it was hard to change it.

Just like how he felt guilty towards Empress Hu because of the previous crown prince, and as a result, no matter how disrespectful the Empress Hu felt towards him, he was not angry. It was because he felt that he had let down the Empress Hu and should not be angry.

Towards the Prince Duan, the Emperor Ruikang had long recognized that this was his own little brother. Back then, he had helped him to ascend to the throne, and it was even his little brother who had helped him a lot over the years.

His own little brother did not intend to take the throne, so he would not harm him. What he said must be for his own good, for the sake of the Madame Ye.

Because he knew this, when he heard Prince Duan’s words, Emperor Ruikang did not get angry. He only sighed, looked at Prince Duan, and said: “Prince Duan, how do you feel about Ye Jingche’s matter, and how should we deal with it?”

With Emperor Ruikang’s words, the originally apprehensive crowd heaved a sigh of relief.

Even the ministers who were not from Ye Jingxing’s faction heaved a sigh of relief.

It was true that they and Ye Jingche had not reached a situation where they did not want to stop until their deaths, but with the incident on New Year’s Eve, they did not dare to let Ye Jingche out.

What if he gave it again next time?

Thinking up to here, the ministers all steeled their hearts. No matter what, they couldn’t let His Majesty let go of Ye Jingche this time.

As for the Liu and Zheng Families …

Since Ye Jingche was the main culprit behind the crime, how could they possibly escape?

Emperor Ruikang would definitely not show mercy to these people if he dealt with his own son.

With this thought in their minds, when the Prince Duan opened his mouth and said that he wanted Ye Jingche to be removed from the Imperial Family and be confined for a lifetime, many people couldn’t help but nod their heads in agreement.

Everyone knows that Emperor Ruikang is unwilling to see his own son die in front of them, so let’s let Ye Jingche live for a while longer. After all, everyone knows that Emperor Ruikang’s health is not good.

And the reason why Prince Duan proposed to remove Ye Jingche from the royal family was to prevent Emperor Ruikang from regretting it in the future, or maybe Ye Jingche was just trying to cause trouble from the back of his mind.

After the Emperor Ruikang heard what the Prince Duan had to say, he fell into silence.

He had to admit that the punishment proposed by the Prince Duan was very good. Let his son be an ordinary person, as long as he obediently did not cause trouble, even if he was encircled, his life would be saved.

The most important thing was that Emperor Ruikang understood that he was still alive. After he had gone, if Ye Jingche was still a prince, he might really be able to do something else.

At that time, even if the Prince Duan was still here, once the heavens are in his court, Ye Jingxing might just directly take his life.

The more he thought about it, the more Emperor Ruikang felt that it was possible.

Thinking about that, Emperor Ruikang nodded at Prince Duan, then looked at Ye Jingxing who was standing below him.

“Fine, you have to promise Royal Father to leave him with a bloodline.”

Emperor Ruikang’s request was not considered excessive. In Ye Jingxing’s opinion, even if it was Ye Jingche’s direct son, didn’t he still have a concubine son that had already been sent to the northern border?

That bastard would definitely survive, so it wouldn’t be hard for Royal Father to agree to his request.

Only, Ye Jingxing also understood that he could not agree directly. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Emperor Ruikang and said: “Why not invite Master Xuan Ling to the palace to calculate?”

The reason why Ye Jingxing said that was only to calm Emperor Ruikang. After all, Master Xuan Ling had secretly left a message for Dong Shu after he saw that Yuanxi had caught up with him.

Only four people knew about this.

Dong Shu, Xu Shiqiu, him and Xu Nuanwen.

Therefore, what Ye Jingxing said now was only to tell Emperor Ruikang that not only was the Prince Duan watching him, but the Master Xuan Ling was also watching him.

Emperor Ruikang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Ye Jingxing’s words.

He had also just thought of the Master Xuan Ling, so no matter what battles existed between them, at least their hearts would always be the same.

The Madame Ye was a place that could not be lost!

Only, the Emperor Ruikang did not expect that after he had just agreed to lock Ye Jingche up, and after the person who passed down the decree had left the Ye Residence, Ye Jingche killed a whole bunch of women and then personally ended his own life.
