Chapter 447 Not a Proper Master >

entire face burned with shame, but there was nothing he could do about it. 。Today, Old Madam didn't come. She seemed to have suddenly become a lonely person. Xiao Shi didn't bring her along. Could i...Empress Dowager Yu's calculations were exceptionally clear; her intentions were unambiguous, she wanted to cling tightly to Ye Wenyan. 。As long as the night temperature words are liked, whether it is a commoner woman or a maid, she can do whatever it takes to welcome them. 。Moreover, it seemed like the son was quite fond of this young maid. Wouldn't that be a win-win situation!This seed was planted in her heart, and Empress Yu laughed heartily as she invited Quan Qingcheng to share breakfast together. She even had someone add a chair for Yingpeng. 。But where would Deng Peng dare to eat He just sat on the side listening to the young girls gossip, and also heard the Emperor bicker with Zhuier. 。The Ying family has been renowned for generations of skilled artisans, working at Qichaogong for many years. They've served everyone from the Empress Dowager to palace ladies and concubines – they've seen all sorts of important people. Yet, they've never witnessed such a lively and harmonious gathering like this before. Nor have they ever seen a servant girl so favored by the Emperor. 。 No, Empress Yu was not spoiling Ye Wenyan; she was fawning over him. To flatter this Miss Ye Si, she even used her own son's marriage as a bargaining chip. 。Who is her son He is the current emperor, the Emperor of Beiqi. Why would Empress Yu go to such great lengthsYing Peng felt that he was increasingly unable to understand Ye Wenyan, and he didn't understand why Ye Wenyan had called him into the palace in the first place. 。Originally, it was said that he would send pearl flowers to Empress Yu and take a look at the expression of Empress Li. But he came directly to Changxin Palace, his pearl flowers were still tucked away in his pocket, when would he send themFinally, this early meal was over, people sat back in the front hall of Changxin Palace, maidservants brought up tea, Ye Wenyan drank a few sips and told Quan Qingcheng: "You didn't send that good tea from your place to Empress" Quan Qingcheng shook his head, “I couldn’t bear to…” 。" She laughed, "You child, this is your mother. You're not even willing to give your own mother some tea leaves" "It's only a little..." 。"Qian Qingcheng gestured with his hand, "Packing it up wouldn't even fill this small box. I can't bear to drink it myself, only had a sip once!" Yu Taizu was very curious, "What kind of tea leaves are so precious"Qian Qingcheng said mysteriously, "The tea..." 。" Lady Yu suddenly realized. 。In the palace, the only tea that could be called "mountain tea" was Yanhuashan. 。It seems that Miss Four is indeed closely connected to Yanhuagong this night, and her son has also benefited a lot from it. 。When the previous emperor was alive, he often reminisced about how the esteemed Lord of the Imperial Court had cultivated a spiritual field on Mount Yanghua, planting many crops, including tea trees. 。All of those were raised with immortal arts, imbued with spiritual energy. If he were fortunate enough to take a sip, it would be worth dying for. 。It's a pity he never got to drink tea from Yanhua Mountain before he died. Unexpectedly, his son began drinking it as soon as he ascended the throne. What a good turn of events! 。"Keep these valuables for yourself, I don't need them." 。"The Empress Dowager gazed at her son with a smile, he was such a delight to behold." 。Now that I look at Ye Wen again, he seems much more agreeable. 。Soon, another idea began to form in her mind. She had heard that Miss Ye Si had three maidservants by her side. If Ye Qingmei, Ye Chu Lian, and Zhuier weren't suitable, then it wouldn't be a bad idea for her son to marry a girl from the Ji family. 。As for whether he is a slave or not, it doesn't matter. Ye Family's slaves, she has taken them all out to marry, let alone counting slaves. 。How can someone like that be called a slave She's serving the immortals. If she could bring back a servant like that, her son would truly be successful. 。 The Empress Dowager Yu pondered to herself, and so did Ye Wenxin. As she thought, she turned to the palace maid, Congwen, by the Empress Dowager's side and said, "Trouble Auntie, go to Yong'an Palace and invite Empress Dowager Li." As soon as these words were uttered, everyone in the hall except Yingpeng was stunned. Empress Dowager Yu was even more puzzled, "What does Fourth Miss mean" Ye Wenxin squinted her eyes and smiled, "We are all empresses dowagers, although we live separately in the East Palace and West Palace, but we should visit each other more often." 。As you are the Emperor's biological mother, your status is noble. Therefore, since it is necessary to move about, it should be her who comes to Changxin Palace. 。" The Empress Dowager was even more confused, "Fourth Miss, the Empress and I don't get along very well. I'm afraid that if we meet, it will be unpleasant. Perhaps we should just forget about it! She definitely won't want to come this way." 。Let's talk, don't let her get upset. 。"How could you be in a bad mood!" Ye Wen smiled even more beautifully, "Don't worry, it won't." 。Besides, I still have something here that I want to show Empress Dowager Li. Let her come over and take a look so I don't have to go all the way to Yong'an Palace again, it's tiring enough. 。Ying Peng straightened his waist, knowing that the main task of his visit to the palace today was about to begin. He couldn't help but feel a little nervous. 。But amidst the tension, years of suppressed anger also arose, and his entire emotional state plunged into grief. Even Empress Yu sensed something was amiss with him. 。Today, why did Yingpeng follow into the palace Empress Dowager Yu has never asked. Although a clever craftsman suddenly appeared, he was still a craftsman who had already left the palace. This is quite strange. 。But since humans are brought by Ye Wen of the Night, she felt she shouldn't speak out. 。Seeing Yingpeng's obvious emotional change, Ye Wenyan must have a reason for asking Empress Dowager Li to come over. Thus, he stopped objecting and only told Congwen: "Go quickly and bring her here no matter what." 。" Night Wen said "um" and replied, "If she refuses to come, Auntie can just say that I'm here. If she doesn't come to Changxin Palace, then I'll have to take her up the mountain." 。"Let her choose where she wants to go!" From Wen took a deep breath and suddenly understood why Zhuai'er had such confidence. 。With such a master, how could one possibly lack confidence! She quickly exited Changxin Palace. Zhuai pondered for a moment, then whispered a few words in Ye Wenyan's ear before also chasing after her. 。After reading the letter, he politely bowed and said, "I'll go with my aunt to avoid the Empress Dowager from bullying her." 。" From Wen thought for a moment, then decisively took Zhuier's sleeve warmly. The two of them, like sisters, chatted and went about their business together. "

In Changxin Palace, the maids had refilled the tea. Zhuai'er was no longer in the room, and with no one to spar wits with, Quan Qingcheng remembered that Ye Chulian had once injured her leg and he had even gotten a physician to treat it. 。Then he asked, "How's your leg, Chu Lian, all better"

Night Chu Lian was taken aback, “What’s wrong with my leg”

“Isn't it that you went to the Palace of Immortals to find me once and injured your leg”

Hearing this, Night Chu Lian was furious——"That was ages ago! Besides, we've met several times since then. Why are you suddenly bringing it up now Does that mean all our previous encounters were pointless Or are you just bored and trying to find something to talk about with me" She became increasingly angry, "I had completely forgotten about the leg pain, and you bring it up again out of the blue! You're just looking for trouble!"

Quan Qingcheng’s face darkened. “What’s gotten into you today Pei Er is scolding me, and now Chu Lian is too I am still the Emperor, but you both treat me like this! If it were any other man outside, wouldn't you just go ahead and hit him Chu Lian, you weren't always like this. What happened to you You’ve changed! Take my advice, be more patient, don't become like Pei Er, or you might not find a husband when you grow up..."

" Then Empress Dowager Yu's eyes crinkled into a smile, and she immediately expressed her opinion: "It doesn't matter if she doesn't get married. The Emperor can just marry her into the palace." 。>> 。Everyone in the hall was chattering idly, seeming relaxed. But Ye Wen knew that Empress Yu's heart must be filled with anxiety at this moment. She must be somewhat apprehensive about the arrival of Dowager Empress Li at Changxin Palace. 。After all, she had been suppressed by the Empress for so long when she was a concubine. Over time, it became a habit. Even though she was now able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the former Empress, she still felt half a step behind. 。But it's okay, habits can be changed. This time she entered the palace to present that pearl flower to Empress Yu in front of Empress Li. 。The purpose of giving gifts is not the final goal; it's still about what I promised Yingpeng before. 。To be precise, she used Empress Dowager Yu, although Empress Dowager Yu wouldn't have any doubts. She wasn't an unreasonable person, so after using someone, one had to give back a corresponding reward, at least to make the other party feel comfortable. 。So she brought Ye Qingmei and Ye Chulian together, with the intention that after resolving the matter of Zhuhua, the two of them would negotiate a deal for incense with Empress Yu. 。This transaction is taught by her, mainly executed by Ye Qingmei and Ye Chulian, while Empress Yu can introduce things into the palace and be responsible for promoting them among the noble circles in the capital. 。Thus, starting with Lin'an as the base, gradually expanding outwards, if she could leverage Empress Dowager's influence to have shops throughout Beiqi, it would not only be a very substantial income, but also something akin to her jewelry shop in its own way. 。Ye Wen calculated these things in his heart. He calculated how many types of perfumes and scented candles he could still remember, as well as their production methods. He also calculated how much profit he should give Empress Yu to make her cooperate more happily. 。At this time, Empress Li arrived 。With a shout from the palace attendants of Changxin Palace, "Empress Dowager Yong'an is here!"People all turned their heads to look out, only to see Empress Dowager Li Xiaohan in fine clothes, slightly raising her head and walking towards the main hall. 。In the courtyard, the servants knelt in a proper line, yet they were still reprimanded by Baocham, a maidservant of Empress Li: "You all look like fools! You don't resemble attendants serving the Empress at all. You are not even as well-mannered as the servants in the outer courtyards. It is clear you have never served a proper master before." 。The common people dared not speak, but Quan Qingcheng heard it and frowned. 。This is the palace of his biological mother. As soon as the maidservants around Empress Li entered, they spoke like this, slapping whose face He was about to stand up to seek justice for his mother, but Ye Wenyan glared at him fiercely and sternly rebuked: "Sit down! You are the emperor, the Son of Heaven, it is not something you should do to argue with servants!" Speaking of which, he gave a glance to Zhuier. Zhuier understood and immediately opened her mouth: "To reprimand someone else's servant on their own territory, it doesn't seem like something a maidservant around the Empress would do! It's not even as good as the maid in an ordinary household, it looks like she has never served a proper master!"nting was also helpless, “If you can persuade the princess to go back, we will naturally follow suit.” 。But if she won't leave, who do you think of us will be able to leave 。"He pointed to the arm th...
