Sure enough, when he heard that the prime minister wanted to recruit him, Fang Tuo lowered his eyes. His voice was rigid and distant. He always hated this kind of arrangement the most.
Moreover, he had already given his heart to others: "Thanks to Daren's care, but this lowly official has no intention of getting married for the time being."
Prime minister Ye appreciated Fang Tuo. He felt that this young man was a promising talent. His appearance, character, and appearance were not bad.
But he was too poor.
His daughter had always been pampered at home. He also did not want his daughter to marry Fang Tuo and live a poor life. Hearing this, his expression did not change. He just nodded slightly. "A man should have this kind of thinking."
Behind the screen, Madam Ye's complexion was a little bad, but in the end she did not say anything.
She just waved her hand to let Ye Shaohua leave first.
When Ye Huaijin heard the news of her return, he specially rushed back from the Ministry of Works.
"Why so early?" Ye Shaohua leaned on the side of the corridor. Seeing Ye Huaijin come and go so freely, she was a little surprised.
Her heart also sank slightly. It seemed that Ye mansion had not been good in recent years. That Bai Zhenzhen still secretly made her move.
"Let's go in first and talk." Ye Huaijin looked at Ye Shaohua from top to bottom. Seeing that she had become more and more beautiful in these three years, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The two people met Fang Tuo on the way to the study. Ye Huaijin only slightly nodded to him and did not say much.
On the contrary, when Fang Tuo saw the brilliant and threatening Ye Shaohua, his footsteps paused until the other party passed by him without looking sideways. She did not even look at him.
Before this, Fang Tuo also thought about how graceful Ye Shaohua was. However, when he really saw her, he knew that person's graceful bearing was difficult to paint.
Fang Tuo glanced at her and turned his gaze away. Compared to Ye Shaohua's gorgeous and eye-catching beauty, he liked Bai Zhenzhen's aloof character more. He was just used to seeing Bai Zhenzhen's pure and beautiful appearance in white clothes. This touch of gorgeous color almost made his heart jump out of his chest.
However, thinking that that person was Ye Shaohua, he quickly calmed down.
"So our family has been forgotten by the emperor and the third prince?" When Ye Shaohua and her sister entered the study, prime minister Ye and his wife were talking.
Prime minister Ye slightly nodded. "I'm afraid that the third prince wants to marry Bai family."
Hearing this, Ye Huaijin subconsciously glanced at Ye Shaohua. He remembered that three years ago, Ye Shaohua and the Third Prince were very close.
When he saw that there was nothing unusual on Ye Shaohua's face, he let out a sigh of relief.
He took out a piece of paper. "Father, look at this."
"What is this?" Prime minister Ye looked at it for a long time.
"The new weapon in the Third Prince's hands is well-formed and powerful." Ye Huaijin pondered for a moment. "Father, you've barely cared about politics these past two years. It's time for you to take a side."
Ye Huaijin had sent this piece of paper to Ye Shaohua. It was a picture of a gun.
In the past few years, the Bai family united with the Third Prince to deprive the Prime Minister Fu of all the real power. Bai Zhenzhen offered many proposals to the Emperor. She also moved out a cabinet setting, letting the Emperor reduce the Prime Minister's power. The Prime Minister, who was below one person but above ten thousand people, gradually became powerless.
This was especially so for this incomparably powerful spear. The Emperor had always wanted to reclaim the world. With this weapon, he would be able to achieve half the results with twice the effort, so he attached great importance to it.
Ye Shaohua did not care about their dialogue. She was thinking about the original plot, and the original plot almost developed like this.
Later, there was still one last step left in the production of the gun. Ye Huaijin was framed for stealing the blueprint of the gun production and was imprisoned by the Emperor.
Then Bai Zhenzhen confessed to the Third Prince that she was the person who drew the gun picture, which made the Third Prince shocked. After knowing that the Second Young Master was also Bai Zhenzhen, he went through untold hardships to obtain a beautiful woman's heart. Finally, he smoothly seized the throne with a huge amount of wealth.
Bai Zhenzhen felt that Ye Shaohua only had Ye family as her backer. Without Ye family, Ye Shaohua was just a jumping clown.
Sure enough, three days later, the news that Ye Huaijin was imprisoned came. Ye family turned pale with fright, and Ye mother directly fainted.
Ye Shaohua grasped Ye mother's pulse. In the past three years, she read a lot of books in the valley of Tianjizi, including medical books.
Although she couldn't, she could still remember them with her photographic memory.
Mother's body is too poor, she needs acupuncture. I can't do this, "Ye Shaohua calmly instructed. Everything was orderly." Mo Hen, you take father's invitation and go find the imperial doctor. Housekeeper, you go find father and come back. "
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Mo Hen was the first to come back. Her face was full of anger. "Miss, no one in the Imperial Hospital is free."
Ye Shaohua pursed her lips and her complexion sank. How was this not free? It was clear that Ye family had fallen and didn't want to get into trouble.
The people in the capital, one after another, saw the wind and set the helm.
"What should we do now?" Madam fell, Ye Huaijin was in prison, and the master was not at home. Everything could only be decided by Ye Shaohua.
"Nothing." Ye Shaohua spread out a piece of paper, wrote a sentence on it, and stood by the window.
After a few breaths, a white carrier pigeon landed on her shoulder. She tied the paper to the pigeon's leg and watched its back disappear before turning around.
Mo Hen had never seen her family's miss's face so cold.
At the same time, prime minister Ye and the housekeeper were in the Third Prince's residence.
The two people waited for a long time and only saw a guard come out: "Prime minister Ye, I'm sorry, our Third Prince is meeting a distinguished guest. He doesn't have time, please go back."
Hearing this, the housekeeper Ye was disappointed. "Prime minister, this Third Prince … doesn't care about the young master? How can he be so heartless? "
Three years ago, they were standing in the Third Prince's team. Only, in recent years, because of Bai family, the Third Prince and them had become estranged.
When prime minister Ye heard what was said, he paused for a while before turning around and leaving. "People don't look out for themselves, heaven and earth destroy them. Our Ye family already has no value to be used. We also provoked a fishy smell. The Third Prince will naturally not risk offending the Emperor to help us."
At this time, the Third Prince was in Fengya Lou. When Bai Zhenzhen, who was sitting opposite him, heard the Third Prince's servant's words, she raised her eyes and asked: "Ye family's matter, does the Third Prince not care?"
"The most important thing for me now is to find the gongzi who gave me the design of the gun. Father Emperor attaches great importance to this matter. Ye Huaijin did this kind of treacherous thing, I have no way to save him. "The Third Prince carelessly said.
Nowadays, the prime minister's residence had long lost its real power. Now that this kind of thing happened, how could it turn over again? There was no need to save him.
When Bai Zhenzhen heard what was said, she felt at ease and picked up the teacup, covering the sneer in the bottom of her eyes.
