Chapter 230: See the move and break it
Although Ye Jintang did not go to Prince Qi's Mansion, he was very concerned about the news there.
"My lady, the maid from the front yard just came over and said that although Princess Qi saved her life, she may not have children in the future because she took the poisonous drug."
"Well, he has a son to live with, that's all."
In the original novel, Ye Yanran did have only one son. Later, Xiao Yi was killed by a vassal king who seized power, and Ye Yanran followed Xiao Qing.
She did not give birth to a son or daughter for Xiao Qing, but instead adopted a son and a daughter from Xiao Qing's harem and raised them by her side since childhood.
It can be said that in the original novel, Ye Yanran lived a smooth life and served as queen to two emperors. Not everyone has this ability.
Che Xiang waited at Prince Qi's mansion from morning till afternoon, but did not see Ye Jintang and Xiao Yi.
In the end, she had no choice but to return to the palace to report.
"If you can't even do such a small thing, what's the use of you?"
When Imperial Noble Consort Dehui learned that Che Xiang had failed twice and invited Ye Jintang to Prince Qi's mansion, she didn't know what to say to her.
She was the only imperial concubine of the Tianqin Kingdom. How could Ye Jintang, a princess, dare to disobey her orders?
"Whoever went to the Qin Palace to deliver the imperial edict will be dragged out and beaten to death by me now."
The female official who went to deliver the imperial edict was truly in unprovoked disaster. How could she lose her life just by delivering an imperial edict?
Che Xiang was young after all, and her heart was pounding with fear. She fell to her knees at the feet of Imperial Noble Consort Dehui.
"My Lady Imperial Concubine, I was originally able to invite the Princess of Qin to the Prince of Qi's residence today, but Madam Gan repeatedly obstructed us along the way, which wasted our time. Please calm down, Your Majesty."
"If the job is not done well, it is not done well. I don't care about the process, as long as the result satisfies me."
"You have been with me for some time, so you naturally know my temper. Go and receive ten punishments. You should also remember this lesson. When you work for me in the future, you must pay full attention and don't try to get away with it."
Che Xiang didn't dare to plead for mercy and hurried to receive the caning.
Noble Consort Dehui was the only one left in the hall. She sighed imperceptibly and thought that if today's matter was handed over to Nanny Hua, she would definitely find a way to invite Ye Jintang to Prince Qi's Mansion.
It's not like today, where there was a great opportunity right in front of her, but she missed it.
It makes me angry just thinking about it.
This matter cannot be let go. She must let Ye Jintang stay in the capital to take care of Ye Yanran's health.
On the other side, it was already dark when Xiao Yi returned to the palace.
As soon as he returned to the palace, he did not go to see Ye Yanran first, but went to see his son who had just been born not long ago.
After looking after the child, he walked slowly to Ye Yanran's yard.
Ye Yanran, who had slept for a whole day, had just woken up. She had lost too much blood and looked extremely weak.
Ye Yanran leaned on the soft pillow and had just drunk a bowl of blood-replenishing medicine when she saw Xiao Yi lift the curtain and enter the room.
She didn't say anything, but just looked at Xiao Yi calmly.
"Yanran, don't be angry. I just happened to have something to do today. I was held up outside, so I came back late."
As he spoke, Xiao Yi sat next to Ye Yanran. He approached her intimately and wanted to kiss her, but she dodged him.
"Your Highness has a strange smell of powder on his body, which makes me feel uncomfortable."
"Really? I guess I accidentally rubbed it against you outside."
Faced with Xiao Yi's nonsense, Ye Yanran was too lazy to listen to his explanation.
"Your Majesty, I have been through the gates of hell today and am extremely tired. I want to rest early."
"Okay, then I won't disturb your rest."
Xiao Yi didn't want to bother coaxing Ye Yanran, so he just found an excuse to leave.
Seeing the person she once liked being so indifferent to her, Ye Yanran felt a chill in her heart.
From today on, she and Xiao Yi are no longer related, and from now on, Ye Yanran will only live for herself.
The Qin Prince's mansion was massacred and the Qin Prince almost lost his life.
The Prince of Qi's Palace was holding a lively banquet to celebrate the birth of Emperor Jing's eldest grandson.
On one side was a cold house where one could faintly smell a strange bloody smell, while on the other side it was bustling with firecrackers and banquets.
Comparing the two, although they are both sons of Emperor Jing, the difference in their treatment is huge.
In Huayu Palace, Emperor Jing had just woken up from a nap, and Concubine Song, who had just gained favor, helped him change his clothes.
Zheng Hai, who had been waiting outside, brought in some memorials.
"Your Majesty, recently many people in the court have written to the emperor, hoping that the King of Qin can go to his fiefdom as soon as possible."
"Hasn't it been agreed long ago that the King of Qin will go to the fiefdom in September?"
"The King of Qin was almost assassinated, and the target was pointed directly at the Imperial Concubine. Some conservative old officials wanted the King of Qin to leave the capital as soon as possible."
Emperor Jing sat down, took the memorial and glanced through it. The content implicitly expressed the fear that Xiao Mo was assassinated. It also pointed out directly that if Xiao Mo continued to live in the capital, he was afraid that something would involve Emperor Jing in the future.
Emperor Jing has always been a benevolent monarch in the eyes of the common people. The court officials do not want Emperor Jing to sacrifice his reputation because of Xiao Mo.
"This is really ridiculous. Is there anyone who will try to assassinate the King of Qin again and put the blame on me?"
"I just want to ask, who is so brave?"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Regarding the assassination of the King of Qin, all kinds of rumors are spreading in the capital. There are all kinds of rumors."
"Rumors stop at wise people, but fools don't think about the truth. Some rumors spread for a long time, and even if they are false, they will be believed to be true."
"It makes no difference to the emperor whether he lets the king of Qin leave in September or in August."
"It would be better to let the King of Qin go to his fiefdom earlier, so that the Emperor can save some trouble."
Emperor Jing responded, neither saying yes nor no.
But Zhenghai knew that he had listened to him.
"In the next two days, Imperial Noble Consort Dehui will hold a banquet for the little grandson. After the banquet, if the King of Qin wants to leave the capital early, let him leave early."
"That's perfect."
Zheng Hai came to ask Emperor Jing today, and he also took a lot of risks. Now that he got a definite answer, he quickly sent the news out of the palace to let Xiao Mo feel at ease.
"Zheng Hai, that old bastard, I don't know how many benefits he has received from Xiao Mo. It's a pity that he actually speaks for him like this."
When Consort Dehui received the news, she was not angry because she had already come up with a new way to deal with it.
No matter how many people pleaded for him, it was absolutely impossible for him to leave the capital in August.
"Che Xiang, there will be a banquet in the palace. You must invite the Princess of Qin to come. If you don't get a definite reply from the Princess of Qin, then you can just hang yourself at the gate of the Prince of Qin's mansion."
"I will definitely not let the Imperial Concubine down again this time."
"hope so."
Noble Consort Dehui took one look at Che Xiang and felt somewhat disgusted. There was a huge difference between her and Nanny Hua in the way they handled things.
