Chapter 369: An Emperor's Word is His Bond
me, one day I will make sure you have no children left, and one day I will make sure your grandson dies too. 。Only when they are all dead can I feel at ease. 。 The old general was trembling now, hi...This is a very proactive approach, constantly leaving clues. That way, there will always be someone who can follow the clues to find what they are looking for and see the person they want to see. 。Aren't you already holding two things in your hands This shows the method is useful. 。Therefore, she had to emulate Feng Qingqing and could no longer stay in Lin'an City waiting listlessly. 。She had to do something to prove her existence, to send a signal to those who could understand: "I, Ye Wen, have arrived." 。Even if it can't convey "Ye Wen came," at least convey "people from the future have arrived." 。This is why she opened the jewelry shop, and also why she wasn't afraid that Yingnan and Shangguan Xiaoya would betray her. 。Anyway, betrayal is also for using such means to earn more money and sell more things. Then betrayal is fine, just let them take this craft and leave far away, go to places she can't reach, and spread these ornaments. 。Due to Ye Wen's insistence, Yingnan and the two others were also embarrassed to bring up the matter of the body contract. 。But they all swore, this life they would never betray, and this life they would never leave their master's side. 。If I break this oath, may all that I have learned throughout my life be erased, leaving only a dream. 。This vow was surprisingly similar to the vows made by Bai Chuxiao and Xiao Jue. Ye Wen thought, perhaps this was fate!Back at the General's Mansion, Jie MaMa pulled her aside, saying she had been keeping a close eye on the situation with the old Madam and the Second House these past few days... 。The old woman's illness has recovered, and she can torment her family again, morning and night. 。...only because the second mistress was upset after her aunt, Grandma Tang, brought up the matter of raising her to be a wife last time. She quarreled with the old mistress and they haven't reconciled yet... 。So, what they call "morning and evening rituals" are nothing more than a formality. While the second mistress arrived promptly to pay her respects, she didn't stay for long after the greeting. 。They've got people here watching day and night. They can keep track of everything Second Mistress, Xi Chun, Old Madam, and Jun Tao say, but they haven't found anything useful. 。There's just one thing... Granny told her: "Second Master still has to marry a concubine, and he already has someone in mind. It's the mistress who was raised outside the city many years ago by Second Master." 。The couple had a daughter, reportedly the same age as their third sister. The reason why they hadn't brought the woman into the household all these years and now suddenly brought it up again is because she was pregnant. 。"
Ye Wen said with a laugh, "Could Naijing Sheng still hide this big business deal from Xiao Shuwai Their daughter is about the same age as Ye Hongzhuang. It seems that Xiao Shuwai is just a showman, looking impressive but not really capable of handling serious matters>>>" 。As she spoke, she suddenly thought of someone. 。That was the young woman Ye Chu Lian met while treating the wounded in the outer city. At that time, Ye Chu Lian thought the girl looked a bit like her. 。Looking back now, maybe it wasn't a coincidence after all. It wasn't that Ye Chu Lian was mistaken, perhaps... it really was true. 。 “This is not the main point” 。“Grandma, whether the second master marries a concubine or not, and whether he has other children, it doesn't concern us much.” 。The old slave did this because he was watching the reports from Xi Chun's guards. After hearing about this, Xi Chun made a big scene, smashing a lot of things and threatening the second master's wife that only she could be the one in charge. If anyone else took over, she would tell everyone about it, and then no one would have a good time. 。“ Ye Wen frowned, that matter Which matter "The old slave can't figure out which matter it is, but the second master seems to be very afraid of this matter, constantly soothing Xi Chun, and promising to make her a noble concubine, just half a step behind the main wife. Only then did Xi Chun stop making a fuss. " 。"Sister, Xi Chun used to be in our courtyard. Could her situation have something to do with us" Of course it's related, Ye Wenyan could almost be certain that when Ye Ye Sheng and Xiao Shu Bai agreed to take in Xi Chun, there must have been some hidden story behind it, and this hidden story was most likely connected to our big house. 。It's a pity, she had so many people watching closely, but still couldn't figure it out. 。"He must have been aware of something, so he wouldn't say anything behind the scenes. " 。She murmured to herself, “Blame me. If I had taken such measures sooner, perhaps the truth behind my grandfather and father's deaths could have been uncovered long ago.” 。"Grandma, Grandma heard this and comforted her, "After all, no one expected it earlier, in the end, it was the old mistress who made the move." 。But now it's settled, only our Big Master is left. 。" Night Wen Yan's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, is the old general's matter considered settled It probably hasn't been. " 。The person mentioned by the Tang family was just a guess, nobody had any concrete evidence. 。including why the old General only favored his eldest son and disliked his second son, all of these were her speculations. 。What exactly killed the old general Was it the truth about his son not being biologically his, or the news that even his biological son wouldn't live longAll of this remains unconfirmed, and she hasn't even figured out how to seek revenge even if the evidence were laid bare before her eyes. 。Whether the matter is handled publicly or privately, this is a question. 。“Keep watching!” she sighed. “Maybe I should take a trip to Xiushan County, you never know what I might find.” 。This night, Ye Wen, as expected, couldn't sleep. 。Lately, I don't know if it's because I've been thinking about opening a jewelry store, but my sleep has always been bad. Sometimes, when I finally fall asleep, I have dreams where her jewelry is everywhere, and finally, Ah Heng, Ah Ran, and Qing Qing find it, then follow the clues to find her. 。At first, such a dream would feel wonderful. But as time goes by, it will make people feel restless. 。Because everything is an illusion, the real world is far less beautiful than in dreams. 。Therefore, she hasn't been liking to sleep lately and instead chooses to pinch flowers and recite incantations to keep herself energized. 。In recent days, I have often stayed up late in Shilifeng's workshop, learning from him how to make the intricate gears used in clocks. 。Now that the watch and clock are finished, I feel like there's nothing to do, and my mind is bored. 。When the old woman saw that she couldn't sleep, she told her another story: "The fifth sister went to find the second young master to help her brew wine. The second young master took her to the Prince Ren's Mansion..." 。Every day she walked at night and returned in the early morning. After Bai Wu quickly greeted her grandmother, she spent the whole day resting in her room. 。“When she’s done, she suggested to Ye Wen, “If sister really doesn’t want to sleep, why don’t we go to the mansion of Prince Ren It’ll also give us a chance to see how Fifth Sister’s winemaking is going.” 。"
Ye Wen thought this proposal was very good.
" 。He only ran into the red-clothed Emperor who was leaning against the gate when he went out. 。The little girl bounced over and grabbed the Red Emperor's large sleeve, giggling and shaking it. "Shi Lifan, how did you get here Are you here to see me"Shi Lifan rolled his eyes! Wasn't this a given He wasn't here to see the head of the First Rank General's Mansion. "I'm going to Renwangfu, why don't you come with me!"Shi Lifan frowned upon hearing this, "Going to Renwangfu in the middle of the night" Didn't his young lady know what was proper between men and women"To see Chu Lian brewing..." 。She spoke plainly, "Chu Lian borrowed the place in Prince Ren's Mansion to brew medicine wine for me. My second brother is there too. With them around, I couldn't sleep anyway, so I wanted to take a look. Come with me!" She tugged at his arm, "Come on, come on, let's walk there. It'll be good exercise." 。You've spent years and months within the Yanhuagong, venturing out only with spells. You must be so stiff from lack of exercise! 。From now on, you should go out more often. That's the only way to have a human touch. 。"Shi Lifen felt this was right, after four hundred years, it was indeed time to polish and improve. " 。But that was in the past. Ever since he met this girl, he seems to be moving around the mortal city frequently. Didn't he just go climbing a mountain the other day Now that spring is warming and flowers are blooming, why not put planting flowers on the agenda 。So, while being pulled away by the girl, he negotiated with her: "If you're really bored, why not go find some flower seeds We need to plant them all over the hills outside Beijing." 。You relying on flowers to cast spells really worries me. 。"
He squeezed the storage bracelet on the girl's wrist, "There aren't many flowers in here, are there"
Ye Wenyan nodded, "There aren't many. "
While they seem plentiful, those cultivated on Mount Yan Hua are insufficient when large amounts of spiritual energy are needed. 。I always think about planting all the mountains and putting all the flowers into bracelets. By then, even if the earth changes drastically, I will have the ability to protect myself and also help others. 。"Tomorrow, I will have Lian Shi send someone out of the palace to purchase flower seeds. As for the mountainous terrain outside the city, you need not worry about that. I will personally level the mountain and make it ready for you to plant. Furthermore, I will establish a prohibition at the foot of the mountain to prevent people from freely collecting flowers there." 。I also want to take a trip to Xiushan County recently. 。"Ye Wen grasped his arm, "I've gotten a general idea of what happened at home. There are still some things that need to be confirmed." 。But this matter cannot be done openly, it still has to be done quietly, so as not to startle the snake. 。So when you have some free time, let's go for a quick trip at night. 。" Shi Liyuan glanced at her, "This deity is always free. It's just that if you want to go tonight, you can reach it in a blink of an eye." 。" Let's just call it a night. I still want to go check out the medicinal wine." 。Now that the clinics in the outer city have gotten back on track, the ones here in the inner city need to catch up quickly. 。Now, I'm just waiting for this batch of medicinal wine. Once the medicinal wine is ready and the clinic opens, I'll consider it another big accomplishment. 。As for jewelry stores, I believe with the help of family, you can quickly find a suitable place. 。She touched her earrings again here, then whispered to him, "Shi Li Yuan, if there's a clue about the companion I'm looking for, will you accompany me to find them You don't care about mountains or distances. Wherever I want to go, you'll follow me there, right Don't break your promise." 。The girl was leaning on his arm, her whole body hanging on him. 。Shi Liyuan looked at him and wanted to laugh, "The words of this deity are naturally divination, let alone you want to go yourself, I wouldn't allow you to go." 。"It's just me, Ayan. There is one thing this deity hasn't told you yet..." my hands, and there are also estates outside the city. It's better to settle down in the estate. There's no point in living in this inner city. 。"The household registrar was embarrassed. A respected...
