atypical prostitute

Chapter 117

Since Xiao Zhiqian had promised Ye Wurong, he would definitely fulfill Ye Chuan and Fu Li's resignation, and naturally he did what he said.

The next day, after the early morning break, someone from the palace asked Ye Chuan to stay for a while, and His Majesty summoned him.

……

……

Under the guidance of the attendant, Ye Chuan entered the stiff Lingyun Pavilion. He knelt down on the steps, waiting for the sovereign to speak.

Not far away, there is a pair of three-foot-high gold-plated brass crane incense burners. The long beaks of the cranes spit out a dark fragrance of bitterness, which evaporates in the air and entangles on the veils, making the already dull air even more boring.

Xiao Zhiqian was obviously in a bad mood today, he reviewed the memorial with a livid face, made insulting voices from time to time, and sometimes even threw the ink pen, the palace people were terrified, and the leader Liu Changshi was even more pale.

Ye Chuan waited calmly with his head down, without making a sound.

In the end, even Liu Changshi felt that His Majesty's deliberate snubbing of General Xiaoye was too much. He reminded him repeatedly, implying that General Xiaoye had been waiting for a long time, so Xiao Zhiqian put down the memorial, raised his head, and said kindly, "Brother, are you getting impatient?"

Ye Chuan knew that although they were related by marriage, they were still in the relationship between monarch and minister. The so-called monarch's heart is unpredictable, so he naturally wouldn't get carried away because of being favored for a while, and said with a smile: "Recently, there have been continuous torrential rains in the south of the Yangtze River, and officials are pushing each other. Your Majesty is inevitably depressed. Ye Chuan Chuan only hates himself for being incompetent and unable to share the country's worries."

Xiao Zhiqian was surprised to see him say such a big truth, he was stunned, and said with a smile: "My brother is getting more and more calm."

Ye Chuan respectfully said: "Sister is a queen, if a younger brother doesn't know how to be calm and self-respecting, wouldn't it embarrass my sister?"

Xiao Zhiqian nodded, and said, "Brother has indeed grown up. Since ancient times, male college students should get married and female college students should get married. It's time for you... to start a family and start a career."

Ye Chuan was overjoyed when he heard that.

After receiving the wind banquet, he felt uneasy, for fear that the emperor's brother-in-law would really give him Princess Kanghui.Therefore, every move in the palace recently has been pricked up to listen.Knowing that the Fourth Lady had repeatedly entered the palace to beg to see the Queen's sister, she felt even more uneasy when she was overjoyed.

Until now, hearing the emperor's brother-in-law's intention of letting go, he finally let go of his suspended heart, and immediately said with a smile: "The matter of marriage is entirely up to the brother-in-law."

Xiao Zhiqian stretched his waist, and said: "In fact, three years ago, I fell in love with the fourth lady of the Fu family for my younger brother. Unexpectedly, that farmer Fu Zhu didn't know how to flatter him, so he refused! So this marriage, I It is true that Si Niangzi was not considered at first. If brother has any complaints, don't take it to heart."

Ye Chuan said: "My brother dare not."

Xiao Zhiqian said again: "I heard from Uncle Yan that you became attached to the fourth lady of the Fu family because of him?"

Ye Chuan reported: "What King Yan said is true, but the first time I met Si Niangzi was at the Princess's Mansion. That day I went to pay my respects at the Princess's Mansion through the Bai family's relationship, and happened to meet at the Ningbi Pond. I fell in love with the fourth lady. At that time, I thought this lady was good-looking, and she was funny...memory..."

As he spoke, his cheeks blushed and his tongue became dull.

"That is to say, when Brother saw her for the first time, he—"

Ye Chuan's face was already hot at the moment, and he muttered: "...Brother-in-law, don't make fun of brother."

Seeing his shyness, Xiao Zhiqian became more provocative, and said with a smile: "Thanks to you being the youngest and most promising general in this dynasty, thousands of troops treat you like nothing, how could a woman scare you away?"

Ye Chuan immediately showed embarrassment, and said at a loss, "Brother-in-law, this... this... these two things can't... can't be confused."

"Why can't you make love with Si Niangzi, you are in the midst of thousands of troops."

Xiao Zhiqian simply pushed aside the hill-like memorial, and said enthusiastically: "Brother, tell my brother-in-law, how did you behave in the grove that day?"

Ye Chuan has always been thin-skinned, and being teased by him, he already has the intention of digging a hole to bury him.It's a pity that no matter how shy he is, he is still the king, Ye Chuanwei insisted, and replied hesitantly: "...Brother-in-law...I...I really..."

"If you can't say it, I won't agree to your marriage with Fourth Lady!"

Xiao Zhiqian smiled viciously, teasing this uncle who was similar in appearance to his wife but extremely shy, actually brought him a strange pleasure.

Ye Chuan didn't know that he was narrow-minded, and after several times of questioning, he had already squeezed out what he shouldn't have said, and now he became angry from embarrassment, and was about to explode.

But he knew that the person sitting at the top couldn't just be treated as a brother-in-law.

When he was amiable, Ye Chuan could chat and laugh with him freely without any taboos; but he was a monarch after all, as long as he showed a little sternness, Ye Chuan had to abide by his duty as a monarch and minister.

A companion is like a tiger, the person who holds the power over your life and death will never be your friend or relative.

This is the teaching that Ye Ziyun left to his descendants.

He was born in a side branch of the Ye family, and he accompanied the palace as a prince's attendant when he was young. Because he was cautious, considerate and delicate, he was born in a modest family, and finally gradually became the indispensable right-hand man of Emperor Xuan.

However, the view of family background is too heavy, Ye Ziyun is restricted by his family background, has no ambitions for Ling Yun, and has accompanied him in the palace for more than ten years, doing nothing.Until the 16th year of Pingkang, it was born, and the Northern Expedition was created.

It's a pity that this glory came too late and too bright. When he lit up the sky like a shooting star, the empire was shocked.

That was the only time in Ye Ziyun's life that he showed his sharpness, and when good news spread frequently, he also became the target of public criticism.Therefore, shortly after the Northern Expedition ended, Emperor Xuan chose to compromise with the wealthy giants due to the situation. From then on, the general disarmed and had no merits of any size, and died in depression five years later.

Everyone in the world thinks that Ye Jungong's lineage of three generations is favored by God because of the blessing of the Ye family.In fact, these favors are man-made after all: in the last five years of his life, Jungong Ye recorded all the things he learned and realized in his life in detail, and left them for future generations, so that they can avoid detours.

Therefore, Ye Chuan's mood is simple and honest, and he is not good at playing tricks, but who is really stupid in commanding the three armies?
When he realized the maliciousness in Xiao Zhiqian's smile, his expression changed accordingly.

Blushing, half shy and half sincere, said: "Si Niangzi and I first met in the eldest princess's mansion. At that time, I only thought that this lady was born well, and had no other intentions. I didn't see her until the suburbs to welcome His Highness King Yan. A weak woman, she was able to be calm and composed without any timidity in the Shura field. Only then did she truly realize that she is different from others. She looks smooth, but she has her own persistence in her heart and refuses to follow the trend. Unlike those masters in Beijing A lady who is a lady, who is full of flattery and flattery, actually looks down on me as a reckless man. Especially Princess Kanghui, I really don't know what she likes about me! Perhaps, what she likes is the status and future that my brother-in-law bestowed on me. "

Since he was outspoken, Xiao Zhiqian didn't tact with him, he said: "How do you know that the woman next to you is affectionate for other purposes, and Fourth Lady is sincere?"

Ye Chuan smiled frankly, and said: "Because I like her, everything about her is good in my eyes. Even if her liking for me has a fake part, I believe that as long as I treat her sincerely, I will always return my sincerity." return."

"You really are an idiot."

Ye Chuan shyly said: "The Ye family has always been infatuated."

Xiao Zhiqian was startled when he heard the words, and then he smiled and said: "Since my brother is thinking like this, my brother-in-law will naturally not wrong you."

"Is this true?"

Xiao Zhiqian said harmoniously: "Your marriage must be the best."

Hearing this, Ye Chuan knew that the matter was already half over, and said with a smile on his face, "Then... when is my brother-in-law going to make an official decree for the marriage? I'm ready to prepare the betrothal gift."

Xiao Zhiqian smiled and said: "I will prepare the dowry for you. After all, you are marrying two at a time. Your meager salary alone is not enough!"

"two?"

Ye Chuan looked at the monarch with a flat face in astonishment, and said in disbelief: "Your Majesty means—"

Xiao Zhiqian said with a smile: "I am indeed wrong about this matter. But Princess Kanghui has a deep affection for you, which is rare. Since she misses you in her heart and is a daughter of the clan, why do you reject people thousands of miles away?"

"But... I only like the fourth wife of the Fu family!"

Ye Chuan's hand hidden in his sleeve was clenched into a fist, and he was trembling with anger.

Xiao Zhiqian said leisurely: "I didn't say I won't let you marry her. It's just that Liang Wang's face must be taken care of."

This is Xiao Zhiqian's biggest concession.

Ye Chuan knew that the person sitting at the top was his brother-in-law, and even the king of a country, so he had his own considerations.

After all, King Liang is an elder with a prominent status. If even such trivial matters as marrying a daughter can't do what he wants, what will the clan and vassals think of Jinshang?

It can be said that it is magnanimous for the emperor's brother-in-law to withstand the pressure and let the fourth lady of the Fu family and Princess Kanghui marry him together.

It is even more special to allow equal wives.

But accepting this blessing——

But Ye Chuan couldn't do it.

Rejecting means giving up the bright future, but accepting means giving up the sincerity.

Which is more important, no need to think about it.

In an instant, Ye Chuan had made a decision.

He took a deep breath, raised his head, and said proudly: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law has one thing that I don't understand. Brother-in-law, as the king of a country, can still only love sister, why does brother-in-law marry Princess Kanghui and Princess Kanghui at the same time?" Four ladies?"

"Brother, you are not young anymore, you should know many things about the military and the country, which can't be explained by words of love."

Xiao Zhiqian said indifferently, Princess Kanghui has a reckless and domineering personality, and this time she insisted on marrying Ye Chuan, it was probably instigated by someone behind her.Xiao Zhiqian knew who that person was and his purpose, but he was willing to be a deceived monarch.

Because he likes Ye Chuan.

I like Ye Chuan's innocence and simplicity, and I like the benefits that the Ye family behind him brings to the empire.

Because I like it so much, I feel that it is very inappropriate for an overly naive and simple man to be matched with a woman who is too thoughtful, especially since countless power groups are involved behind this woman.

He must leave the force of coercion from the beginning.

Although he liked that woman quite a bit in his bones.

It's only God's will to blame, if Fu Lici was not the daughter of Changsha King, her fate would really be different.

However, Ye Chuan didn't understand, so he raised his head and promised earnestly: "Your Majesty, Grandpa once had a legacy, to keep it with the descendants of the Ye family, and to be devoted to it. Your Majesty has always liked Grandpa, so I really don't know how helpless these six words are! Could it be that Your Majesty wants to be like Emperor Xuan, to be a ruthless and loveless person for thousands of miles of rivers and mountains!"

...with one mind and one mind...

The simple six words exploded like a thunder the moment they fell into my ears.

How could Xiao Zhiqian not know what Emperor Xuan had done to balance the political situation!
Ye Ziyun was sacrificed again and again like this, half his life was depressed, and finally died young.

Ye Ziyun's three concubine sons were not born of concubine, but Emperor Xuan forbade him to marry that woman.

Even, that miserable woman was killed by Emperor Xuan personally.

People all over the world lamented the benevolence of Emperor Xuan, who allowed his concubine son to inherit the title. Who knows how much bitterness there is behind this glory.

So when he heard Ye Ziyun's last words to his children and grandchildren, "One mind should be one mind", his heart was touched.

"Brother, Ye Jungong's predicament back then is not the situation you are facing now. Since you know the twists and turns, why did you bring it up again?"

There was even resentment in the words.

But Ye Chuan pretended not to hear the implication, and continued to speak calmly.

"Ye Chuan is not talented, but he also knows where the true love lies. What he wants to do with his heart, he should be single-minded. My grandfather has encountered a rough situation, and I hope that future generations can keep their sincerity, and only treat one person sincerely from beginning to end. The world thinks that it is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but Since His Majesty has already achieved the love of one heart, why did he force Ye Chuan to share his heart with two people?"

"I didn't ask you to like Kang Hui. What I meant was that, if Kang Hui insisted on marrying, you married her. Just treat her as a reward and treat her well."

"Reward? She is the enemy of the fourth lady. I can treat her calmly. Can she not cause trouble! Even if it is to balance the military and political affairs, I... can't do it!"

After finishing speaking, Ye Chuan stood up, walked into the hall, shook his clothes, and bowed again: "The words of the offender are all from the bottom of my heart. If there is any offense, please allow me to shut myself up and think about my mistakes."

Without waiting for a reply, he stood up and left respectfully.
