atypical prostitute

Chapter 109

Li Ci wanted to calm down and think about countermeasures, but the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind kept going.

Many aristocrats in the capital were already eyeing Mr. Ye family, but within three or two days, the news that Ye Chuan refused to marry Princess Liang Wang just to marry the fourth lady of the Fu family spread all over the city.

Those who knew something about the first five years of Chengshi said that it was the couple who finally got married, while those who only knew about the dispute at the hunting ground last year said sarcastically that Princess Kanghui was their great matchmaker.But more dignitaries chose to stand on the sidelines, trying to figure out the future political structure from the marriages of the sons and daughters of the three noble families.

With the status of Princess Kanghui, even if she fell into a horse and broke her leg and lived in seclusion, she would never bear the shame of being rejected for marriage.

However, Mr. Ye family is proud of his youth, and he has the support of the queen and sister, so it is not easy for him to compromise.

As for the fourth lady of the Fu family, who in the capital does not know that she is the illegitimate daughter of the eldest princess and Duke Zhongsu?
On the surface, it is just a marriage between children and daughters, but behind the scenes, it is a contest between the King of Liang, the eldest princess and the queen. Today, it is inevitable to participate in it, but the name of the saint is taboo, so it is inconvenient to mention it.

In an instant, the city was full of wind and rain.

……

……

Li Ci was sitting in the carriage.

It is not the first time that the eldest princess has set foot on this imperial city covered with glazed tiles and painted with deep red lacquer. It is different from the uneasiness of the past, but now Lici's status can be described as earth-shaking, and there are countless female officials and eunuchs by her side. , the momentum is more powerful than before, but she no longer has the slightest interest in this resplendent imperial heart that imprisons the youth and dreams of countless women.

The rest is nothing but helplessness, and...a touch of sadness...

The eldest princess sat cross-legged in front of the white jade censer without saying a word, pinching a rosary in her hand, reciting Buddhist scriptures in a low voice, praying for the souls of the dead who sank deep into the vermilion wall...

……

After listening to the rattling sound of wheels rolling over stone slabs for more than half an hour, Li Ci and the eldest princess arrived at their destination.

Surrounded by a group of female officials, the two nobles stepped out of the carriage, walked through the long corridor, bypassed a rockery and bamboo forest, and finally saw the smiling beauties in men's clothing.

Ye Wurong.

Just like two years ago, she is still heroic and has a domineering temperament. Although her appearance is not average, she can't be considered good-looking. Standing among the beautiful women, she has her own resplendent and resplendent, just like a green bamboo.

Looking at her, Li Ci, who was used to plotting and calculating, even felt ashamed of himself. Her body flowed with the arrogance and majesty of a king, the grandeur and naturalness of a domineering one.

This woman is born to stand above all people.

While thinking about it, Ye Wurong had already seen them, smiled softly, and said, "His Royal Highness, how are you?"

The eldest princess smiled and said: "I'm already at this age, how can I feel safe and uneasy, but I'm so cruel, you are too polite."

Li Ci also stepped forward and saluted: "My daughter pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen."

Ye Wurong looked at Li Ci meaningfully, and didn't order her to get up immediately. She looked at her with a smile, until Li Ci felt a little uncomfortable, and then smiled, and said: "After three years of separation, the fourth lady is especially charming. It's better than the past, no wonder my little brother who is incompetent has been obsessed with it."

Ye Wurong smiled extremely beautifully, charming and heroic coexisted, but in Li Ci's eyes, what splashed was coldness and sadness.

The imperial palace is not suitable for Ye Wurong, the gloom is turning into a tangible entity and gradually eroding her.

Every splendor here is to cover up the darkness behind the shadows, and Chinese clothes cannot cover up decay.

She is still the old her, but the brows are vaguely covered with dust.

Just as she was feeling emotional, the Eldest Princess nudged her with an elbow, and Li Ci immediately put away her wandering thoughts, made a shy gesture, and replied: "Your Highness, don't make fun of your servant."

Ye Wurong glanced at the Eldest Princess who seemed to be smiling, but the Eldest Princess didn't care, and said gently: "Si Niangzi, can you believe that this is true?"

They didn't want to hide the meaning of their relationship.

Li Ci was stunned for a moment, but fortunately she was quick-witted, seeing the Eldest Princess covering her mouth and smiling, she knew she wanted to protect herself, so she smiled and said: "The matter of marriage is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, as a child, just follow the orders. "

Ye Wurong nodded, and said: "My brother and I have been lonely since we were young. Although uncles and elders are here, they are not parents after all. Youdao is that the elder brother is the father, and my brother has no elder brother. The marriage has to be done by my elder sister." It's the cook."

When Li Ci heard this, she knew that Ye Wurong wanted to help herself, but now that she is a queen, Li Ci did not dare to presume.

Sui said: "Under the whole world, is it the king's land; on the shore of the land, is it the king's ministers. Your Highness is the mother of all people in the world, and Lici's marriage should be decided by His Highness."

What she said originally meant that the marriage was entirely up to Ye Wurong to decide, but a wise man may have a lot of worries or mistakes. She pets the special room alone, but there is no sign of pregnancy.

Immediately, before Ye Wurong said anything, the eldest princess had already stared at her.

Li Ci realized her mistake and was about to make amends, but saw Ye Wurong pass Li Ci and look behind her.

——Bai Yinmei is still dressed in men's clothing and female officials today. Although he has a charming appearance like a woman, he is still a man's skeleton. At this time, his body has begun to develop, standing in the palace, quite conspicuous.

Realizing that it was Bai Yinmei that Ye Wurong was paying attention to, Li Ci couldn't help but shudder in his heart: Ye Wurong killed Bai Yinmei's entire family, it can be said that they are irreconcilable.She instinctively wanted to stop her, but then she thought that Bai Yinmei was obtained by Jun Fengxi from Xiao Zhiqian, and that she and Ye Wurong had probably seen each other before, and she was so warm, but she wanted to cover it up.

Only pretending to step aside casually, watching the situation nervously.

Ye Wurong looked at Bai Yinmei with a smile, the spring breeze blowing on his face suddenly turned into snow outside the Great Wall, and in an instant, Her Highness the Queen who was chatting and laughing was gone, standing in front of them was a decisive warrior.

Under the sharp gaze, Bai Yinmei knelt down calmly, and said: "My servant pays homage to Your Highness the Queen."

"Slave?"

Ye Wurong repeated these three words meaningfully, before saying for a long time: "Get up."

He paused again: "You look quite like an old friend."

Li Ci dug his nails into the meat nervously, but Bai Yinmei stood up calmly, and said: "The servant girl is lowly, it is really an honor to be similar to your Highness's old friend."

Ye Wurong smiled, and said: "It's just that the appearance is somewhat similar, once you speak, you don't look like him anymore."

Immediately, he ordered the female officer to take Bai Yinmei down to receive the reward. Bai Yinmei thanked him humbly, as if he was born with a servile face.

Only Li Ci saw that there were a few drops of crystals in his long eyelashes, and before they dripped, they had been dried by the sun.

……

After Bai Yinmei withdrew, Ye Wurong looked at Li Ci more playfully. Before she could make trouble, the eldest princess took a step forward and said, "A Mei is a very good child who saved Li Ci's life. .”

Ye Wurong heard the words, his face was a little gentle, and he said: "Since you are a benefactor, treat him well."

The eldest princess shook her fan and said, "I have already asked Mrs. Wu Dehou to accept her as a righteous daughter. Unfortunately, this girl is devoted to the fourth wife. She only stays at Wudehou's mansion for a few days during the festivals. She usually follows the fourth lady. By the lady's side, she calls herself a slave."

Ye Wurong nodded, and said, "He knows how to repay his kindness."

Li Ci didn't understand the meaning of Ye Wurong's words, she felt embarrassed, decided to drag the eldest princess into the water, and said, "It's the eldest princess's house who trained well."

Ye Wurong glanced at the eldest princess, smiled tacitly, casually picked off a blooming hibiscus, and said, "I thought that the eldest princess was the most beautiful and unparalleled in the world, but I didn't expect to find out that the fourth lady was born today." With such a sign, standing side by side with the eldest princess is not inferior. No wonder my younger brother wants to marry you even if he contradicts His Majesty."

contradict?

There was a trace of guilt in Li Ci's heart.

She did have some affection for Ye Chuan, but her decision to marry him was a conclusion drawn after scheming, and the influence of her own emotions on the conclusion was almost negligible.It wasn't until this moment that she finally realized that maybe... she should be sincere.

So he said softly: "He is an idiot."

The shyness and gentleness of this little girl fell into Ye Wurong's eyes, and finally she smiled knowingly, and said: "What kind of person does Si Niangzi think Brother is?"

Li Ci said: "Everyone says that he is a young hero with a bright future, but... I think he is...a stupid person who stammers!"

"how do I say this?"

Li Ci's cheeks were flushed, and she half-heartedly and half-schemingly told about the encounter in Meiyuan.

The day they met in Meiyuan happened to be the eve of the army's expedition, and Ye Chuan, who had already received an imperial edict, specially met her in Meiyuan. Even if Li Ci didn't mention the friendship, Ye Wurong could understand it.

So after listening to the narration, Ye Wurong also sighed.

"What an idiot."

Li Ci shyly said: "General Xiaoye is not good at words, but I know how he treats my courtiers. What's more - the life of my courtiers was saved by him, so I should promise him with my body. I also... don't talk about marriage for a day."

There is no lack of firmness in gentleness, and when it comes to this point, there is no need to further clarify, Ye Wurong looked at Li Ci with a lot of intimacy.

She stood up, took Li Ci's hand, and said: "When I was in Yueyang Tower, I had a good impression of you, thinking that it would be great if you could be my sister-in-law. It's a pity that things are unpredictable, and one after another A big change came one after another, and I was overwhelmed, and I never found a chance to match you up. Fortunately, there is a will in the dark, and it is such a mistake."

Li Ci blushed again, and said, "Your Highness means—"

"I like you very much."

Ye Wurong spoke bluntly, but the next sentence caused Lici to fall from heaven to hell again.

"It's a pity that His Majesty is determined not to allow it."

"why?"

Li Ci couldn't help feeling panic.

Before he died, the king of Changsha warned her to beware of the king of Liang and to be careful about the future.Before she is strong, she must not let Konjo know that she has known her life experience, and must not let the majestic and powerful monarch be wary of her and... have the heart to eradicate the weeds!
And the best way to gain Jinshang's trust is to marry Ye Chuan!
With Ye Chuan's contributions to the empire and Imakami's affection for the Ye family, the emperor's doubts were completely dispelled.

So when he found out that Ye Chuan had been in love with her for a long time, Li Ci knew that the sky was also on his side.

Not allowed?What the hell is he trying to do!
A trace of cruelty flashed across Li Ci's heart.

After experiencing several lives and deaths in the first five years, she vowed that in order to live with dignity and not to become anyone's pawn, anyone who tried to stand in her way would be killed!

Fortunately, Ye Wurong really liked Li Ci very much. When Li Ci was still thinking about how to ask the reason without losing his grace and a little aggrieved, he took the initiative to explain: "This involves a past event. Cheng Shi Five years ago, when His Majesty was still the King of Yuzhang, in order to ease the situation in the court, he proposed marriage to Duke Zhongsu. His Majesty wanted Duke Zhongsu to marry a woman from the Fu family to his younger brother. But Duke Zhongsu is worthy of the name of integrity. It is unavoidable that the suspicion of selling a girl for glory and being the first rat has flatly rejected His Majesty's request. You all know His Majesty's temperament. He was favored by the late emperor since he was a child, and he was always invincible on the battlefield when he grew up. Duke Zhongsu flatly refused , it is a great shame and humiliation for him, it is inevitable—"

Li Ci understood.

The reason why Xiao Zhiqian refused Ye Chuan to marry her was not as complicated as she thought.

It's just a battle of faces between men.

But if you can't pass this hurdle smoothly, I'm afraid in the future——

Thinking of this, Li Ci said: "I don't know the many reasons behind this, and think that Your Majesty has long preferred Princess Kanghui."

Ye Wurong heard the words and snorted coldly: "That domineering woman also wants to enter my Ye family?! My sister-in-law is supposed to be as virtuous, gentle, considerate and generous as you are!"

Li Ci blushed again.

The eldest princess was also joking, talking and laughing when a female official came to report that His Majesty had arrived.

Li Ci wanted to avoid it, but Ye Wurong grabbed her and said, "Sooner or later we are a family, so there is nothing to avoid."

And Xiao Zhiqian also heard it, walked out of the rockery, and said with a smile: "Wurong is joking again."

"His Majesty!"

　Hehe, sister Ye Wurong is getting mad, poor Princess Kanghui, please mourn for 3 minutes
