Pearl in the Palm - Chapter 65
Ye Lizhu followed Tixiao, and she thought to herself, “What kind of sika deer is it?”
Tixiao felt that she was walking too slowly, and no one could see him behind him. He directly hugged Ye Lizhu and said, “What can a sika deer look like?”
Ye Lizhu kicked: “I can walk by myself.”
Ti Xiao glanced at her faintly: “The leg doesn’t hurt anymore? Let’s go on the boat to continue.”
Ye Lizhu remembered how pitiful he was when he was bent into various poses just now, and suddenly closed his mouth obediently.
No matter what the posture, it is uncomfortable.
It hurts too much.
She did not want to try again in a short time.
Ti Xiao said: “You can’t see the sika deer today.”
Ye Lizhu was stupid and didn’t understand Tixiao’s meaning: “Why?”
Naturally, it was the excuse that Ti Xiao found.
Ye Lizhu and these ladies came out together. If she sleeps in the cabin and can’t come out, or is taken away directly by Tixiao, Tao Meiwen and others will definitely tell Ye Mansion if they can’t see Ye Lizhu.
Right now, Ye Lizhu followed Ti Xiao in front of them, and they knew Ye Lizhu’s whereabouts clearly, so they would not notify Ye Mansion separately.
As for Ye Mansion’s side, Ye Lizhu must still be with Tao Meiwen and others in Chen Wang’s Mansion.
Ye Lizhu said, “There is no sika deer…”
Her tone was disappointing.
Ti Xiao said: “Take you to eat delicious food.”
Ye Lizhu’s eyes lit up again: “What’s delicious?”
Ti Xiao hugged her into the carriage and took her out with him.
There is an inch of gold in the middle of Beijing, some of the larger restaurants, if they can eat well in the capital, they must have a backing.
Tixiao’s subordinates are all over the capital, and there are many industries belonging to Tixiao in central Beijing. Most outsiders in these industries don’t know, and even the prince and queen don’t know it clearly.
The restaurant that Tixiao brought Ye Lizhu to is called “Tingyulou”, which is on the same scale as the restaurant of the Jiang family. Most people don’t have money to come in, and the contacts are mostly wealthy people.
Ye Lizhu was sitting in the warm wing, she was indeed hungry. Haven’t eaten much for a day.
First served a soup, Ye Lizhu took a sip and said, “It’s delicious, is it made of orange flesh and white fungus lotus seeds? It’s sour and sweet.”
The soup is clear and melts in the mouth.
After that, a lot of dishes were delivered. Seeing that there was a lot of meat, Ye Lizhu frowned and said, “I don’t like meat.”
Ti Xiao peeled off a shrimp and brought it to Ye Lizhu’s lips: “Do you not like to eat meat, or have you not eaten it for a long time?”
She has been a vegetarian for many years, even when she returned to the capital, she ate very lightly.
Ye Lizhu turned his head too far: “Don’t eat.”
After all, she was too thin and thin, and Tixiao felt distressed when she looked at it, so she couldn’t eat it.
To replenish the body well.
Ti Xiao said: “Ye Lizhu, obedient.”
Ye Lizhu can reject others, but it is difficult for her to refuse to mention Xiao, she has broken too many rules for mentioning Xiao.
After hesitating for a long time, Ye Lizhu opened her mouth obediently.
The tip of her tongue is blushing, and her lips are soft and moist, which can be seen clearly from the perspective of Tiao Xiao.
Tixiao fed her shrimp.
The chef’s craftsmanship is particularly good, almost as superb as the ones in the palace, and because it was Tixiao who brought people over, a meal was prepared with great care, and each dish was carefully prepared.
The shrimp meat is sweet, not fishy or greasy, and the taste of the mouth is just right.
Another black-bone chicken soup was served, and Tixiao served Ye Lizhu a bowl of soup, and Ye Lizhu held the small bowl and drank two sips of the soup.
After eating a full meal, Ye Lizhu’s whole body was warm, and she felt much better.
Ye Lizhu drank the soup and looked up at Tixiao: “His Royal Highness, don’t you eat anything?”
Tixiao didn’t feel hungry, he figured out Ye Lizhu’s preferences and ordered people to do it.
He said: “I have no appetite for the time being, you eat.”
Ye Lizhu took a small spoon, took a sip of lotus seed soup, and went to dig a spoonful of fruit. Seeing that she was almost eating, he snatched the spoon from her hand: “If you eat it any more, you will be held up. digestion.”
Ye Lizhu was so satisfied that he completely forgot the indispensable sika deer: “Your Majesty, you are so kind.”
Ti Xiao wiped the corners of her mouth: “Then would you like to be with me?”
Ye Lizhu: “Yes, so, your Royal Highness has to look for me a lot these days in the capital. When you go to Xianzhou, we won’t see you.”
After all, she still didn’t consider going back with him.
The sky was getting dark, and Ti Xiao was about to send Ye Lizhu back.
She is still a member of the Ye family, not his.
The door was knocked twice, and Tixiao’s men suddenly sent a secret letter. After Ti Xiao watched, Ye Lizhu stretched his head curiously: “What is it?”
Tixiao put it on the fire and burned it: “You don’t understand these things.”
His fingers are slender and his wrists are wrapped in luxurious clothing. Looking up, Ti Xiao’s eyes are faintly cold.
Ye Lizhu held the tea that was digested after a meal, and took two sips.
The next day, Tixiao asked the emperor to give him a marriage, and he wanted to marry Ye Lizhu.
Afterwards, the emperor and Concubine Sheng also realized that the marriage with the four princesses of Xia was not a good marriage. I don’t want the prince to be involved with Xia Guo. It is possible to let the third princes and the fourth princes marry the fourth princesses, but there are other children of the clan.
As the emperor grew older, he was not entirely concerned about his children. He also wanted to firmly hold the power in his hands. The prince threatened him, so he targeted the prince everywhere. If one day the prince is gone, he will also be afraid of the second prince. This time he married Xia Guo, the emperor also worried that the second prince would get too close to Xia Guoren.
In any case, this incident was facilitated by Ye Fuan. Reminiscent of Ye Lizhu and the queen getting so close, the emperor also had a little distrust of Ye Fuan.
Tixiao suddenly proposed to Ye Lizhu, but the emperor refused directly. He just said that this matter was not good for him. He still depends on the prime minister’s opinion.
Ye Fuan used the marriage of the second prince and the fourth princess of Xia Guo to repay Tixiao’s kindness to save Ye Lizhu. Now seeing that Tixiao hadn’t changed his heart, and even mentioned it in front of the emperor, I felt even more dissatisfied, and it was impossible to agree to this marriage.
Ye Fuan is a lonely and arbitrary person, and that’s how it was in the dynasty. He has never liked other people’s criticism of his family’s affairs. This time Tixiao asked the emperor to give him a marriage. Although the matter didn’t happen, Ye Fuan didn’t have a good face when he saw Tixiao for several days. Even when the queen invited Ye Lizhu into the palace again, Ye Fuan found an excuse not to let anyone in.
The emperor inquired about the follow-up of this incident in private. After all, after working with Ye Fu’an for many years, the emperor still knew Ye Fu’an.
Seeing that Ye Fuan was wary of Ti Xiao, and didn’t pretend it. Think about Ye Fuan’s jewel in the palm of his hand, so far from Xianzhou, how can parents want their children to marry away.
The original guard against Ye Fuan gradually relaxed.
Ye Fuan is a prime minister with outstanding ability. He has not done anything wrong in his hands for so many years, and he is impartial and does not participate in party struggles. The emperor calmed down, still as before.
When Princess Sirou was born, Ye Lizhu still entered the palace once.
Although Princess Sirou was raised in the imperial concubine’s palace, she was not half domineering as the imperial concubine.
Ye Lizhu played with Tao Meiwen, and occasionally she also played with Princess Sirou. Most of the ladies had gone. If she didn’t go, she wouldn’t be able to make it through.
As for some things about her in the DPRK, Ye Fuan controlled the news very well, and never let anyone tell Ye Lizhu casually.
Ye Lizhu’s health is not good at all. Ye Fuan is afraid that it will affect her mood.
The weather was fine today, Ye Lizhu was wearing a little less, and she and Tao Meiwen and others entered the palace together.
Tao Meiwen deliberately attached to Ye Lizhu’s ear and said: “General Xuanwei and the second prince have a good relationship, so Zheng Yiner will definitely go to the third princess’s birthday. Zheng Yiner has a bad temper recently. I guess I will target you, so be careful. “
Ye Lizhu has never dealt with Zheng Yin’er, and she doesn’t know why she wants to target herself, so she inevitably asks a few more questions: “Is it only for me, or is it not good for everyone?”
“It’s just you.” Tao Meiwen said, “you’ll know it then.”
Ye Lizhu nodded, and didn’t ask much.
After entering the palace with Tao Meiwen, she went to the concubine Sheng, first saluted with concubine Sheng, and then went to the side hall of the third princess.
Concubine Sheng Gui sat aloft, the capital is so big in total, there is only a small circle in this circle, whether it is enemies or benefactors, they have to deal with each other.
Ye Lizhu’s use of Concubine Sheng is of little value. However, Concubine Sheng didn’t expect that the cold-faced and cold-hearted Iceberg of Ti Xiao wanted to marry Ye Lizhu.
One is indifferent and ruthless, the other is fragile to death.
No matter what you think, these two people don’t seem to get along well.
Concubine Sheng Gui was not happy recently, and only briefly said a few words.
Princess Sirou doesn’t always like to laugh. Today is her birthday, and it is also a happy day. Sitting among the noble ladies, she smiles a little bit more than usual.
Ye Lizhu was sitting while drinking tea, and a court lady came in again and said: “The third princess, the fourth princess of Xia Guo is also here, and she is with the empress now.”
Princess Sirou and the four princesses of Xia are not familiar, probably because of the marriage of the two, and the four princesses of Xia have also come here.
Within a moment, the fourth princess Lu Caichi arrived.
She was taller than other women, and her appearance and makeup were very different from that of Yan Guo. As soon as she came in, Lu Caichi’s deep and big eyes scanned everyone, and she said a few words to Princess Sirou and sat down in Ye Lizhu’s. Around.
Ye Lizhu nodded and smiled slightly.
Lu Caichi unceremoniously grabbed a handful of dried fruits and ate them. She peeled the dried fruits and said casually: “My emperor brother is still thinking of you these days, and I found some girls from the country of Yan, who look three-way like you. It’s a pity, my emperor brother said, no one can be as good-looking as you.”
Ye Lizhu’s smile has completely faded.
Lu Caichi stared at Ye Lizhu with deep and big eyes: “Even when you went to the country of Xia, people won’t admire you and you will fall as soon as the wind blows, and they will grab you. My emperor said that you and King Qin are good, but your father is the best. Tian refused King Qin’s proposal, you two can’t be together anymore, your hopes will come to nothing.”
Ye Lizhu’s eyes narrowed slightly: “What do you mean?”
“It doesn’t mean anything. Be a lobbyist for my emperor brother. He wants to see you, but he can’t see you.” Lu Caichi said, “Xia Guo doesn’t care about her daughter’s chastity. What do you think of my emperor brother?
Ye Lizhu had long forgotten what Lu Xuantian’s nose and eyes looked like. She would definitely not look as good as Tixiao. She supported her chin in one hand and pinched a hazelnut in the other: “Not very good.”
Lu Caichi sneered: “Fool, King Qin has a concubine long ago. He is not as clean and self-conscious as others said. He hid people in the mansion. The other day my emperor saw him wearing a veil. King Qin also wants to compete with others.”
