Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

The shopkeeper was well versed in the ways of the world. He knew that giving Miss Ye a few pieces of jewelry would not only not be a loss, but would be a good thing.

Ye Yunzi did not refuse and selected a few pieces of jewelry, and picked out an emerald green bracelet for her mother.

Just as she was concentrating on choosing, a woman appeared next to her. The woman's eyes scanned her back and forth, sizing her up and down.

Leng Xue, who was standing aside, changed her expression slightly and lowered her head.

When the shop owner saw the lady, he immediately greeted her warmly: "Mrs. Shen."

Hearing the name Mrs. Shen, Ye Yunzi turned around involuntarily and saw a graceful middle-aged woman. Although she was nearly forty years old, her skin was still fair and tender and she was beautiful.

Ye Yunzi was surprised, not because of the lady's beauty, but because she was called Madam Shen.

Speaking of Mrs. Shen, could it be Shen Siyan’s mother?

Ye Yunzi stared at her and couldn't help but feel nervous, and even forgot to speak for a moment.

Mrs. Shen smiled slightly and said gently, "I guess you are the young lady of the Su family?"

She mentioned the Su family, not the Ye family. Ye Yunzi came back to her senses and nodded: "That's right."

Madam Shen looked at her carefully, with appreciation and satisfaction in her eyes. Although she was young, Ye Yunzi's eyes were very calm. After experiencing many twists and turns, she still had a proud air, and she seemed smart and knowledgeable, which was just right for Si Yan.

Ye Yunzi didn't understand why Mrs. Shen looked at her like that, but when she thought that the other person was Shen Siyan's mother, she clenched her fists in her sleeves.

"Miss Ye is both smart and beautiful, I like her very much. Since we are so destined to meet, why not invite you to the Shen Mansion for tea next time? I hope you won't refuse my kindness." Mrs. Shen chuckled.

Ye Yunzi suppressed her inner uneasiness and agreed.

She didn't feel relieved until Mrs. Shen left.

"Miss." Leng Xue frowned slightly, as if she wanted to say something.

Ye Yunzi's ears turned red due to nervousness, but now she finally relaxed a little.

Leng Xue looked at Mrs. Shen's receding back, and secretly formed an idea in her mind, and clenched her fists.

Ye Yunzi was feeling nervous. She hadn't felt this nervous in a long time. She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until Mrs. Shen walked away.

She didn't expect to meet Mrs. Shen here. She didn't know much about the Shen family. She only remembered that the most profound scene in her previous life was that Shen Siyan personally wiped out the entire Shen family, thus earning the name of King of Hell.

As for why Shen Siyan acted this way and what happened in the Shen family, she knew nothing.

Her mood gradually calmed down, Ye Yunzi lowered her head, and a trace of solemnity flashed in her eyes.

Will the grudges of the past repeat themselves today? Will Shen Siyan plunge the Shen Mansion into a bloody storm once again?

Ye Yunzi felt nervous, her mind was full of thoughts, and she could no longer treat the Shen family's affairs as unimportant.

Shen Siyan's figure always made her think about it.

Leng Xue's expression also became serious, but she said nothing and no one knew what she was thinking.

Just as they were lost in thought, the street suddenly became bustling with people.

The shop owner took a look outside and said with sudden enlightenment: "Today is the day when General Rong returns home in glory!"

This sentence immediately drew Ye Yunzi's attention back, "General Rong?"

She remembered that General Ronghe had been stationed at the border all year round to protect the country's peace. He had a large number of troops under his command and had a very high reputation among the people. Even the emperor had to show him courtesy.

Shortly after General Rong returned this time, the Emperor announced the marriage between Baili Ye and Rong Lingya, the daughter of the Rong family. This was obviously an attempt to win over the Rong family and to prevent them from having any ulterior motives, but the one who had the real ambition was Baili Ye.

With the support of General Rong, Baili Ye took control of the military power and became even more unstoppable and invincible.

Ye Yunzi's eyes were determined. She and Shen Siyan had decided to help Baili Yan. This matter would definitely be noticed by Baili Ye. If he gained power, the Su family would undoubtedly become a thorn in his side. This wedding must be stopped.

"Miss." Leng Xue reminded, "The streets are too chaotic. Let's go home early."

"Yeah." Ye Yunzi nodded in agreement.

The streets were crowded with people, and everyone was looking forward to catching a glimpse of the general.

When Ye Yunzi was returning to the Su Mansion in a carriage, outside the city gate, the city gate was wide open and a group of people were marching into the city in a majestic manner. Riding on the horse was the general Rong He with a resolute face.

"General Rong!"

"General Rong..."

Rong He stood tall and straight, looking straight ahead, towards the direction of the imperial palace.

After thirteen years of war, he had not set foot on this peaceful land for thirteen years. Now the country is peaceful and the people are safe, all thanks to his meritorious service in defending the border.

In a trance, he seemed to see a gentle and virtuous woman, standing under the corridor in the deep palace, feeding the fish in the pond. The water was clear and the fish were jumping, and her smile was as bright as the sun.

"I will pray to the Buddha for the soldiers' safe return."

Rong He gripped the reins tightly, and the calluses on his hands bore witness to his tenacity and perseverance.

Wei Yang, I will never let you encounter any danger.

Even if it costs me my life, I will protect this land and everything you cherish.

"Go to the palace!" As Rong He gave the order, everyone in the Rong family responded in unison, their morale was high, and the fierce momentum made people dare not approach easily. The people in the capital consciously made way for them, raised their heads and looked at them with full respect.

The news of General Ronghe's triumphant return spread quickly throughout the capital, and the emperor had prepared a banquet to welcome him in the palace. Ronghe deserved a title for his meritorious service in guarding the border, but the emperor was hesitant about this reward.

The emperor frowned and felt heavy-hearted.

The Rong family's power was growing day by day, which brought pressure to the royal family. If the Rong family had any plans, the consequences would be disastrous. However, if Rong He hadn't been stationed at the border, there would have been wars long ago. It was his reputation that made all parties dare not act rashly.

The emperor felt both admiration and concerns.

Thinking of this, his eyes changed slightly, and after a slight hesitation, he asked the eunuch beside him: "How is Princess Wei Yang's condition?"

"His Highness has been cured of the poison and his complexion has improved significantly. He even went for a walk in the Imperial Garden recently."

After hearing this, the emperor looked solemn and frowned slightly, "Tell her the good news that General Ronghe has returned."

"Yes, sir." The steward understood the emperor's intention and knew the emperor's dilemma. He could only sigh secretly and sent someone to inform Wei Yang*** of the matter.

After everything was arranged, the emperor looked at the clear and cloudless sky, but his heart was filled with gloom.

"Fude, is this the right thing for me to do..."

The steward remained silent and waited.

General Ronghe has not married yet. The late emperor wanted to arrange a marriage for him, but he declined. He claimed that he did not want to delay women and was willing to guard the border alone. But in fact, everyone knew it in their hearts.

The one he admires in his heart is the woman Wei Yang.

When he was young, Ronghe entered the palace as the prince's military companion and met the equally young Princess Weiyang.
