It was already late at night when Mo Rongzhan left the Ye residence. He wanted to ask Ye Zhen about Zhao Yang, so he arrived at the Lu residence in the dark. Just as he appeared in Ye Zhen's courtyard, a wolf's howl was heard.
Did the little wolf really come back? Mo Rongzhan's face darkened. Looking at the golden eyes flashing in the darkness, he knew that he would not be able to see Ye Zhen today.
He looked at the huge wolf shadow that appeared under the moonlight. Fearing that it would alarm Lu Shiming and his wife, he had to leave here first. He had to find a way to lead the wolf away. Would Ye Zhen still take it with her when she married into the palace in the future?
It seemed that it was better to find a female wolf.
The next day, Ye Zhen originally wanted to go to Zhao Yang. Unexpectedly, Ye Yiqing came early and seemed to have come to discuss something with Lu Shiming.
Pei Shi came to see Ye Zhen, saying that they were discussing where to marry her.
Both Lu Xiangzhi and Ye Chunnan were on their way back. At that time, one of them would have to carry Ye Zhen to the palanquin and escort her to the palace.
These things must be discussed, otherwise, it would be a mess.
In Pei Shi's mind, she thought that her daughter should naturally marry from the Lu family and let Lu Xiangzhi carry her to the palanquin. But Ye Yiqing was Yao Yao's biological father. Although they had been separated for so many years, blood was still thicker than water.
"I can't get a word in anyway. Let your father discuss it with your father." Pei Shi said in a low voice.
How could Ye Zhen not know what Pei Shi was thinking? It didn't matter whether she was married to the Lu family or the Ye family, but she hoped that Ye Chunnan would carry her to the palanquin. It was not that she didn't regard Lu Xiangzhi as her brother, but she was more partial to the brother she grew up with.
"Is the mandarin duck pillow handkerchief I told you to embroider? Let me see it. "Pei Shi found that it was not appropriate to talk about it in front of her daughter, so she smiled and changed the subject.
"That …" The smile on Ye Zhen's mouth froze. "Mother, you know I'm not good at needlework."
Pei Shi gave her a look. "I know you're not good at needlework, that's why you only embroidered a pair of pillow handkerchiefs."
Ye Zhen looked helpless. She took out a pair of pillow handkerchiefs from the cabinet next to her and handed them to Pei Shi. "Mother, I really tried my best."
"As long as you try your best." Pei shi said with a smile. She opened the pillow handkerchief to take a look, and her face turned green. "Are you embroidering mandarin ducks? I think it's more like two wild ducks. No matter how bad your needlework is, it shouldn't be like this. You definitely didn't put in any effort. "
"Mother, I really put in a lot of effort. Look, a few of my fingers have been pricked." Ye Zhen stretched out her ten fingers and showed them to Pei Shi. "Everyone has their own field of expertise. Anyway, needlework is the worst for me. No matter how much I embroider a mandarin duck, it will still be a wild duck. This is what I do with my heart. If I don't, it will be a pheasant."
Pei Shi glared at her. "You still have the cheek to say that! You're about to get married, but you don't even know how to do pillow handkerchief. I've spoiled you too much in the past, that's why your needlework is so bad. "
Ye Zhen said confidently, "In the future, there will be many palace maids around me who can do needlework. I don't need to sew and mend at all. Mother, even if I don't know how to do needlework, it doesn't matter."
"It's all because of you!" Pei Shi tapped her forehead. "Why do you have to embroider this pillow handkerchief yourself? Which married girl doesn't embroider something by herself?"
"Mother …" Ye Zhen cried sadly, "I can't embroider mandarin ducks even if my fingers are swollen."
Several maids next to her covered their mouths and laughed.
Pei Shi was about to scold her when a maid outside hurriedly came in to report, "Madam, Miss, there is an aunt from the palace coming outside, saying that there is an imperial edict from the Empress Dowager."
Empress Dowager's imperial edict? Ye Zhen and Pei Shi looked at each other. Pei Shi frowned and asked, "Why does the Empress Dowager have an imperial edict?"
Since returning from Hu Guo Temple, Ye Zhen knew that the Empress Dowager did not like to see her, so she no longer went to the palace to pay her respects. But at this time, the Empress Dowager had an imperial edict. Why did she feel a bad premonition?
"Mother, go to the front to receive the imperial edict first." Ye Zhen whispered.
Ye Zhen thought that the person who delivered the imperial edict would be Aunt Cheng. After all, she was the most important person around the Empress Dowager. However, the aunt who came to deliver the Empress Dowager's imperial edict was a new face. Ye Zhen had never seen her before.
"Greetings to the Princess. This slave is an aunt in the palace. In the name of the Empress Dowager, I came to teach the princess a few words. If there is anything unpleasant to hear, please do not be angry. This slave is also following orders." The aunt said expressionlessly.
Just a few words, how can it be said to be an imperial edict?
"Before these words are spoken, this slave still has an imperial edict from the Empress Dowager to pass on to the princess." The aunt said expressionlessly.
"This official's daughter receives the Empress Dowager's imperial edict." Ye Zhen bowed her head and accepted the edict. The bad premonition in her heart grew stronger and stronger.
Ye Zhen bowed her head and listened to the aunt's long speech. There was only one meaning in her words.
"Although you were born in the Lu family, you have the blood of the Ye family flowing in your body. The sins of the Ye family are too deep. If she wants to enter the palace to become the Empress, she must first copy the scriptures for the ancestors of the Mo family behind closed doors to wash away the sins of the Ye family. Otherwise, the ancestors of the Mo family will not accept her as the Empress."
"Princess, do you understand?" The aunt read the imperial edict in one breath, her voice a little hoarse.
Oh, of course she understood. She couldn't have understood more.
"This servant understands." Ye Zhen stood up slowly, "Aunt, although this is the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager, I still want to ask, what are the rules?"
"The Empress Dowager's imperial edict is the rule." The aunt said in a deep voice, "The Empress Dowager also asked this slave to bring a few words to you."
Ye Zhen had no expectations and said faintly, "Oh? What else is there? "
"Pass on the Empress Dowager's words. You are the Empress who is going to be the mother of the world. You should beware of sexual jealousy and beauty. You should not spoil the arrogant and jealous. You should be gentle and virtuous, elegant and dignified. You should rely on Roujia and think of the Emperor …"
Oh, the Empress Dowager is really considerate to me. I haven't entered the palace yet. I'm afraid that the Empress Dowager will be jealous.
"Aunt, I remember the Empress Dowager's teachings, and I have also received the imperial edict. However, since ancient times, there has been no such thing as copying scriptures for the ancestors of the husband's family before marriage. Also, the sinful people of the Ye family have already …
