When Minister Ye heard this, he looked at her in surprise, "What? What happened to Ying 'er? "
Wang Shi pulled Ye Ying and told her everything that happened in Prince Li's Mansion in detail. Hearing this, Minister Ye couldn't help but get angry. Ye Ying might not see that Concubine Xian Zhao deliberately wanted to take away her right to be the housekeeper, but how could Wang Shi and Minister Ye not see it? Who has ever heard of a new daughter-in-law being in charge of the household on the first day? And she directly concluded that Ye Ying was not suitable to be the housekeeper after two days? Even the harshest evil mother-in-law didn't do this.
"This is too much! I'll go to Prince Li and ask him to give my Ye family an explanation! "Minister Ye said angrily.
Ye Ying quickly pulled Minister Ye and didn't let him go. Minister Ye frowned and said, "Ying 'er, what are you doing?" Ye Ying whispered, "Father, let's put this matter aside first. Prince has already promised the old concubine. Even if I say it now, it will only make the Prince unhappy. " After crying, and with Wang Shi's consolation, Ye Ying was very clear that her only support now was Mo Jingli, so she must not make him unhappy.
"Are we just going to let it go like this?" Minister Ye said. Comparing the gentle and polite Mo Xiuyao and the arrogant Mo Jingli, Minister Ye was even more dissatisfied with this son-in-law. Why did Prince Ding have such an identity and situation? Minister Ye thought with regret.
"Ying 'er will think of a way. If it still doesn't work, I'll ask father to make the decision."
Minister Ye sighed softly and said to his daughter with pity, "Well, although Prince Li is the son of the Empress Dowager, we don't have to be so afraid of him. The Emperor is not an unreasonable person. If it really doesn't work, we'll ask the Emperor to make the decision. Go back and prepare some silver for Ying 'er. "
"Yes, I thank Master on behalf of Ying 'er."
Mo Xiuyao's guess was not wrong. Less than two days after the betrothal gifts were sent, someone from the palace came to pass Ye Zhaoyi's decree, saying that she missed the Third Miss and invited the Third Miss to the palace to meet her. Ye Li knew very well who wanted to see her. When Ye Yue was at home, her relationship with her was not so bad that everyone knew about it, but it was definitely not better than her relationship with Ye Ying. Unfortunately, although Ye Li was only a Zhaoyi, she had not officially become Princess Ding. Ye Li had no right to refuse her. Therefore, she had no choice but to accept the decree and return to her courtyard to change into a decent set of clothes. Then, she brought Qing Luan and Qing Yu with her and followed the eunuch who came to deliver the message into the palace.
The Chu capital was located in the north of Da Chu State. Most of the palaces there were lofty and majestic. As soon as they got off the carriage, they were greeted by the majestic aura of the royal family. Unlike the elaborate decorations of ordinary nobles, the Imperial City was more prominent in its grandeur and majesty. The five-clawed golden dragon on the huge stone pillar seemed to be warning the world that imperial power was inviolable. Those who came here for the first time would definitely be awed by its magnificence, but Ye Li, who had long been accustomed to seeing hundred-foot tall buildings, scenic spots, and historical sites, could only give it faint praise. After getting off the carriage at the gate of the palace, Ye Li followed the eunuch who led the way and entered the inner palace. While walking, she looked at the environment of the palace without leaving a trace and memorized her location.
After passing through layers of palace gates, she finally stopped in front of a gorgeous palace. Ye Li looked up – Yaohua Palace. Ye Li remembered that Ye Yue was granted to live in Yaohua Palace.
"Third Miss Ye, please wait for a moment. I'll go in and report." The eunuch who led the way said in a sharp voice.
Ye Li nodded and said, "Eunuch, please go ahead."
After the eunuch went in to report, he did not come out quickly. Ye Li stood there for nearly an incense stick's worth of time, but no one came out. Qing Yu whispered, "Miss, what does Zhaoyi Niang mean by this?!" Qing Luan reprimanded in a low voice, "Don't talk too much. Miss didn't say anything, why are you talking too much?" Qing Yu also understood that the imperial palace was not a place where one could talk at will at home. She blinked her eyes in shame and kept silent. Ye Li said with a smile, "Don't be impatient." Qing Luan hesitated for a moment, looked around, and whispered, "Miss, could it be that Zhaoyi Niang …" Ye Li shook her head and said with a smile, "Zhaoyi Niang will not use such a dirty method." Qing Yu and Qing Luan were both very intelligent. After hearing Ye Li's words, they immediately understood. They shut their mouths and stopped talking. Wasn't it just standing there and waiting? One of them was a martial artist, and the other had studied medicine since childhood. Neither of them was a weak person.
After another quarter of an hour, no one came out of Yaohua Palace. Instead, a group of people came over shakily not far away. Looking at the extravagance, it must be a noble coming out. Ye Li and the other two stepped aside to avoid bumping into the other party. Soon, the group of people had walked to the gate of Yaohua Palace. A group of palace maids and eunuchs surrounded two women in palace attire. They stopped not far from Ye Li. One of the women in blue looked at Ye Li curiously and said, "Hey? This Miss looks unfamiliar. Why are you standing here? "Ye Li had to step forward and bow," Ye Li, the third daughter of the Ministry of Revenue, greets the two noble ladies. "
"It turned out to be the future Princess Ding. We don't dare to accept it. "The woman in pink quickly moved aside and covered her mouth to laugh." Third Miss Ye, why are you standing here? Are you here to visit Zhaoyi Niang? "
Ye Li nodded and smiled, "It is Zhaoyi Niang's order to have an audience."
"In that case, let's go in together." The woman in blue pulled Ye Li. Ye Li smiled and said, "Ye Li entered the palace for the first time and didn't know the rules. I didn't dare to enter without being summoned by Zhaoyi. I won't waste the two noble ladies' time. Ye Li thanks again. "The two women looked at each other. The woman in pink smiled and said," In that case, let's go in first. Sister Zhaoyi is pregnant now and easily tired. She must have fallen asleep and the people below don't dare to disturb her. Third Miss Ye, please wait a moment. "
"Thank you."
"Miss, why don't we go in with them?" Qing Yu asked softly. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but there seemed to be more people passing by on this road than when they first came.
Ye Li looked back at her and asked with a smile, "Do you think we will be driven out if we go in?"
"It shouldn't be … right?" Qing Yu said with some uncertainty. Ye family's Miss was driven out. Her Miss would lose face, but Zhaoyi Niang wouldn't be any better.
"Hey … over here, over here …"
Ye Li looked back and saw a small head under a flowering tree in the corner of the hall not far away. The head was smiling and waving at her. Ye Li looked around and then raised her hand to point at herself. The child, whose body was half hidden in the flowering tree, nodded at her, "Come here."
"Miss?"
Ye Li waved her hand and slowly walked over, "You are Prince Ding's uncle's future princess?" There was a delicate and cute little girl squatting in the bushes. She was about seven or eight years old and had a cute bun on her head. There were two strings of sparkling pearls in the bun. Her exquisite clothes were embroidered with golden phoenix patterns. It was obvious that this child's identity was not ordinary.
"I am. Who are you?"
"I won't tell you." The little girl opened her big bright eyes and looked at her with a smile.
