Chapter 365 Li Yuyi

The carriage stopped in front of the villa.

There are ten servants in Zhuangzi arranged by Xie Suzhi.

They had just arrived at the Villa not long ago.

After entering Zhuangzi with Shen Ningning and the others, the housekeeper had to pause for a moment when encountering a fork in the road and think about it before knowing which direction to continue.

"My surname is Wu. I am the housekeeper arranged by my master to come to Zhuangzi. I learned that the princess and His Royal Highness are coming, so the rooms have been tidied up."

In order to ease the embarrassment, Butler Wu led them to a quiet and elegant garden while talking.

The garden is divided into four courtyards, east, west, north and south.

The scenery in each courtyard is different.

The best east courtyard was reserved for Mo Lingwei.

But Mo Lingwei asked Shen Ningning to choose first.

The little guy thought about it and felt that the North Courtyard was cold and not suitable for anyone to live there.

He said, "Shang Yi lives with me in the south courtyard. My brother still lives in the east courtyard. How about Lu Shaoyuan going to the west courtyard?"

Everyone naturally has no opinion.

Only the smile on Ye Changyi's lips could not be suppressed.

He also pretended to be calm and said: "Ah? Are you inviting me? That's fine, I'll just listen to you."

With that said, she couldn't wait to let the maid follow her and ran forward.

He did not forget to turn around and urge Shen Ningning: "Follow me quickly, why are you walking so slowly?"

Shen Ningning chuckled.

We made an agreement with Mo Lingwei and Lu Shaoyuan: "Let's take a rest and let Butler Wu come and take us to the dining room for dinner at noon."

Lu Shaoyuan nodded: "I have to take a good rest."

Watching him rub his shoulders and leave, Shen Ningning looked at Mo Lingwei with watery eyes.

But I found that from the time Mo Lingwei came out until now, there always seemed to be a coldness between his eyebrows.

He seems to be in a bad mood.

"Brother, are you worried about something?" the little guy Nuo Nuo asked.

Looking into Shen Ningning's caring black eyes, Mo Lingwei finally shook his head.

He pursed his thin lips into a faint smile: "It's okay, I'm going to rest. I'll see you later."

When Shen Ningning went to the south courtyard, Ye Changyi had already diligently laid out the bedding for her.

"I made three soft mattresses, and they were soft to sleep on." Ye Changyi couldn't wait to walk up to the little guy to take credit.

However, Shen Ningning put her small hand on her chin, seeming to be thinking about something.

Ye Changyi patted her: "What are you thinking about?"

Shen Ningning muttered: "It's nothing, I just feel that my brother seems a little unhappy. He has been a little absent-minded all the way."

Upon hearing this, Ye Changyi sneered in understanding.

"Of course I'm not happy. I heard from my grandfather that he quarreled with the emperor every day."

As she said that, Ye Changyi saw Shen Ningning's face turned pink by the cold wind.

She took the little guy's hand and said, "Let's go into the house before we talk, or I'll freeze you. I don't know how to take care of people."

When they arrived at the house, Ye Changyi took the initiative to pour a cup of hot tea for Shen Ningning.

Afterwards, the two little girls sat on the low couch under the window.

The snow scenery outside is exquisite and the pines and cypresses are crisp.

They sat by the window, with a bottle of bubbling tea on the table in front of them.

"You must have heard about the daughter of the Nanzhou magistrate, right?" Ye Changyi asked with an intriguing look.

Shen Ningning held the tea cup in her small hands, with big dark eyes on her milky white face.

Like a little white cat keeping warm.

She blinked curiously: "The prefect's daughter? I don't know her."

"Tsk!" Ye Changyi frowned: "Li Yuyi, haven't you heard of it?"

Looking at Shen Ningning's ignorant little face, Ye Changyi was convinced that Shen Ningning didn't care about this person at all.

She explained patiently: "It was Miss Li who used to open a tent to give porridge with Xie Yuanjiu in Nanzhou and also happened to put out fires." "She is eight years old this year. There have been rumors in Nanzhou that there were purple clouds in the sky on the day she was born. It's called auspiciousness when it comes, but I guess it's mostly fake."

Speaking of this, Ye Changyi obviously didn't believe it, curled his lips, and looked down upon these people who were making lies.

Shen Ningning took a sip of tea and blinked her slender eyelashes.

"But you still didn't tell me what this has to do with my brother's quarrel with the emperor's uncle."

Ye Changyi patted the table lightly: "I'm not done yet."

"This Li Yuyi also took the lead in donating a lot of things during droughts and cold disasters, especially recently."

"She heard that there was still a war on the border, so she went to her aunt who was married to a distant Mongolian vassal, bought fifty strong and strong red horses, and donated them to the court."

"My grandfather said that the emperor was very happy and praised the Li family for being kind-hearted and caring for the people."

"It just so happened that Li Yuyi's father, Magistrate Li, had made outstanding political achievements in Nanzhou in recent years, so the emperor ordered him to be transferred back to Beijing to take up his post and made him the second-rank minister!"

Shen Ningning listened with gusto, as if she was listening to a story.

She stretched out her little hand and picked up the jujube paste cake prepared on the table.

He took a bite and asked vaguely: "Then what?"

Ye Changyi said vividly: "Then? Then is where His Highness the Crown Prince becomes angry."

"I heard that the emperor admired Li Yuyi very much and said that she was brave and resourceful. He plans to wait for Mr. Li to come to Beijing after the spring of next year and then make Li Yuyi the crown prince's official."

"Do you think His Highness the Crown Prince can't be angry? He only thinks about you. How can he accept Li Yuyi?"

Shen Ningning swallowed the jujube cake in her mouth and opened her big, watery eyes.

"Wow~" she said in amazement.

Ye Changyi saw that Shen Ningning was neither nervous nor angry.

She leaned over and sat down next to the little guy.

"You don't care? If this Li Yuyi comes to Beijing, he will definitely steal your limelight."

"I think you should take action now and give her a blow."

"Didn't she donate horses? Just donate...military rations! Let her retreat in spite of the difficulties."

Shen Ningning picked up the honey-pickled green plum next to her and ate it.

The two pink cheeks were bulging.

Her waxy voice was full of childlike innocence: "But I have already donated a lot."

"Next time when there is a need, I will donate again. I don't want to waste my supplies just to compete with her."

Ye Changyi shook his head after hearing the words.

"You really do whatever you want with His Highness the Crown Prince's favor."

"But yes, you are a lucky girl, blessed by the gods, how can she win over you?"

"Then I won't take her seriously either. Anyway, my grandfather said that the Li family is just a new wealthy family that has only been rich for two generations. My grandfather's grandfather is the chief minister."

After Ye Changyi said that, she took Shen Ningning's little hand.

"Stop eating, let's go and see how soft the three quilts I made for you are!"

At noon, the four of them finished lunch together and discussed where to go to play later.

Shen Ningning proposed happily: "Butler Wu just said that there is a large field of wild plums in the back mountain, both red and green. Let's go and have a look, okay?"

Mo Lingwei nodded towards her.

Only Lu Shaoyuan hesitated: "If we go, how many people will we bring?"

Ye Changyi chuckled and raised her delicate eyebrows: "What? Are you scared?"

From the corner of his eye, Lu Shaoyuan saw Shen Ningning's round black eyes looking at him.

He straightened his back immediately: "Who is scared? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Shen Ningning have noble status. Calling more people is also to protect their safety."

In the end, he himself had no confidence.

He reminded: "But do we really want to go?"

"I just heard something strange. If I tell you, I'm afraid you won't dare to go."

He lowered his voice mysteriously: "Do you know what's behind Zhuangzi?"
