The official road of the farmer

Li Yu enjoyed Empress Li's concern for a long time, and noticed the unresolved sadness between Empress Li's brows, so she asked, "Ma'am, what are you worrying about?"

"It's nothing." Empress Li didn't want to annoy Brother Yu with bad things, "Is the meal ready? Shall I ask someone to get some more?"

Brother Yu eats three portions for one person, and Empress Li thinks that Brother Yu's appetite is too small!

He carefully looked at Li Yu's state.

Although Jing'er came back and told him about Brother Yu's situation in detail, after all, she didn't see it with her own eyes, and Empress Li always felt a little worried.

I want to call people into the palace, but I feel that the journey is exhausting, brother Yu.

This delay means that Li Yu took the initiative to enter the palace today.

When Queen Li got the news, she has been excited until now, and now she has slowed down a bit.

Li Yu shook his head, not allowing Queen Li to perfunctory, and then asked directly, "But because of His Royal Highness?"

Brother Yu asked about this so bluntly, obviously he knew it, so Empress Li nodded and sighed: "I never thought that Lao Wu, looking at his honest and responsible temperament, would make a private life-long decision." Nonsense."

The Fourth Highness Xia Houjue is so delicate, rebellious and arrogant, even though he wanted to find it by himself at first, in the end he complied with the wishes of Concubine Ming and the Ming family, and formed a contract with Deng Hongyuan.

Speaking of which, Concubine Ming had a heart for His Highness the Fourth Highness, and did not use him to win over the nobles of the family.

However, it is also very possible that the Fourth Highness has long since given up on him, and correcting his temper several times has no effect, so he can only try to make him not hold back his own people.

With the character of the Fourth Highness, forming a pact with an aristocratic family is an enmity rather than a marriage.

But in the end, the Fourth Highness did not turn upside down and refused to form a contract, but obediently accepted the result.

On the contrary, he didn't expect that His Royal Highness Fifth, who seemed shy and introverted, was the most rebellious and worst one.

Sure enough, people can't be seen.

Li Yu's expression moved, and His Royal Highness actually said it out.

Li Yu thought that it was not easy for the Fifth Highness to follow behind him like a doormat since childhood, not to live as well in the palace as those respectable palace people.

He has also come into contact with Wen Bihua, regardless of other things, his own words are indeed worth entrusting for life.

Speaking of which, the few friends who have a good relationship with Ye Junshu have excellent personalities.

Empress Li had already investigated the person Xiahou Bing wanted to form a bond with because of the New Year's Day event, so she naturally knew about his relationship with the Ye family.

Of course, Empress Li would not be angry because of this, thinking that Ye Junshu and the others had ulterior motives and deliberately seduced the royal brother.

As far as he knew, although the two met because of Ye Junshu and Li Yu, they didn't even know that they were still in touch afterwards.

Queen Li was extremely angry.

Although for a moment he considered this person in the range of choices for His Highness Fifth Highness's husband, but he put this thought aside afterwards.

Even if there is a life-saving grace, but that kind of family background wants to be with His Royal Highness, it is like a toad wanting to eat swan meat.

If the other party really wants to get good grades in the exam next year, then he still has reason to make up.

But now, Xiahou Bing came to tell him that he would not form a bond unless he was Wen Bihua.

This is what makes Queen Li most angry.

How shameless is His Royal Highness for saying such shameless words?

Li Yu understood Empress Li's mood, but said without saying anything, "I want to see His Royal Highness Fifth."

Queen Li frowned slightly, but he never refused Li Yu's request, "I'll let someone call me here."

Saying that, let the palace attendant bring people over.

Empress Li was not stupid, she guessed after a little thought that Li Yu's entry into the palace at this moment, apart from coming to see him, was the business of the Fifth Highness.

Empress Li said, "For the time being, you can just leave the messy things outside and give birth to the child with peace of mind."

Although I was pregnant in October, I heard that the twins would be born prematurely. Counting the days, it was less than three months.

"It's not that I don't want to fulfill the matter of the fifth child, it's just that the status difference is too great." Empress Li is only a first-in-law, not a relative, and it is often difficult to do it.

"I see."

"It's best if you can persuade me."

"Ah."

Although Empress Li was dissatisfied with His Royal Highness Fifth Highness's rebellion, but because Xiahou Bin told him in private, Empress Li had no intention of making matters worse for the sake of Xia Houbin's reputation, and did not punish him wantonly. Things don't need to come out.

Xiahou Bin usually stays in his bedroom when he has nothing to do, and doesn't come out until he can, but it doesn't affect him much.

It's just that he made the greatest determination and took a lot of courage to fight for his own happiness once. For him, he has exhausted all his courage.

Even though the queen did not punish him, for him, failing to fulfill them was the greatest punishment.

Why is it so difficult to want a home, a husband who will love and put himself at ease?

Xiahou Bin couldn't eat anything during this time, and the sadness between his brows couldn't be dispelled, and he became so thin that he could be blown away by a gust of wind.

When someone came to summon him, Xiahou Bin was both surprised and delighted.

What surprised him was that he was afraid that he would pass this time, so the empress had directly decided on someone for him, this time notifying him directly.

Happily, he also hoped that there might be a turning point for this matter.

In this uneasy mood, Xiahou Bing followed the palace servants to the Queen's main hall.

"Greetings, my son-in-law, to my mother."

Xiahou Bin saluted respectfully.

"You don't need to be too polite." Although he was dissatisfied with Xiahou Bingbu in his heart, he was a brother after all, and he got along well with the Seventh Prince in the past few years. Empress Li didn't have a calm face, but she didn't have a smile either.

After Xiahou Bin finished the salute, he stepped back to the side, ready to listen to the instruction, but when he saw Li Yu beside him, his eyes lit up instantly, "Brother Yu! You are here!"

"Your Majesty, I want to take a walk around." Li Yu said to Empress Li.

Queen Li did not refuse, "Let Shang Lan follow you."

Li Yu is not light, and Queen Li is worried that he will go out alone.

Li Yu nodded without refusing.

Xiahou Bin hurriedly said: "I'll go out with Brother Yu." His face flushed with excitement.

Empress Li looked at Xia Houbin, thinking that the young people had something to talk to, she said, "Don't go too far, just take a walk outside in the courtyard."

Empress Li reckoned that if she went out for a stroll, she would be hungry when she came back. He was going to cook for Li Yu himself in the kitchen, so that he could make up for it.

Xia Houbin and Li Yu went for a walk in the yard outside.

Li Yu didn't go out of the scope of the Queen's main hall. The Queen's bedroom is so big, the courtyard outside is enough for him to walk around.

Shang Lan and other attendants were a little farther away, so they could reach the other side in time and keep a distance for Li Yu to talk to His Highness the Fifth Highness.

"Brother Yu, are you here to help me?"

When there were only two people left, Xia Houbin asked expectantly.

"How is he?"

Li Yu did not answer yes or no.

He said: "If you are really determined, you should ask His Majesty to grant you." Instead of asking the queen to embarrass him.

"Even if the empress agrees to your matter, don't you know what he will face?"

Xia Houbin bit her lower lip.

This is something he didn't think about.

He just thought that Empress Mu had the right to decide his marriage, but he didn't expect it would make him difficult.

If he formed a contract with a family member, it would be fine, but he had a private life with someone, and the other party had nothing in the Queen's eyes.

It's just that he had exhausted all his courage when he came to the Empress to express his feelings, and if he was asked to say it again, he really couldn't express it.

Let alone looking for the father.

Xiahou Bing grew up so big, and the number of times he talked to Tai'an Emperor can be counted on the fingers.

"Bi Hua is worried about you, please come to us, I will come to see you, but that's all."

From the standpoint of Li Yu and Ye Junshu, it is really not easy for them to intervene in this matter. If they intervene, they will easily cause troubles.

Li Yu was able to go through this game and raise some points, but it was for Ye Junshu's sake, otherwise, based on the friendship between the two of them, Li Yu would at most just say something nice.

When Xia Houbin heard that Wen Bihua cared about him so much, his heart warmed, letting him know that he was not alone.

There seemed to be infinite courage rising from the bottom of my heart.

Xia Houbin said gratefully: "Brother Yu, thank you." He was already very happy to hear the news about Brother Wen.

After a moment of silence, Xia Houbin said firmly, "I'll tell my father right now!"

"Brother Yu, please reassure Brother Wen that I'm fine, I'm fine."

After a pause, he said shyly, "You tell him to wait for me."

With a word, Li Yu can still do it.

So he complied.

In fact, as long as Emperor Tai'an nodded, it would be easy to handle this matter, but it was not suitable for Queen Li to export it. Li Yu could only persuade Queen Li to give them a chance.

What's more, they still have to work hard on their own.

If Wen Bihua can achieve good results next year, it is very likely that he will be nominated for the gold list in the bridal chamber wedding night.

The two of them walked around outside before wandering back into the hall.

Xia Houbin returned to her bedroom not long after.

Then let people dig out the silk and satin that I have been reluctant to use, and prepare to make some small clothes and shoes.

In any case, Brother Yu also helped him, no matter whether he succeeds or not in the future, Xiahou Bin also wants to express his gratitude.

Brother Yu is so lucky that he is pregnant with twins. He plans to make some small clothes and shoes for the children by himself, which is also a part of his heart. .

Li Yu stayed in the palace until evening and was about to leave.

He just brought a few words and said a few words by the way, and he will not care about what will happen next.

Queen Li asked Shang Lan to personally send Li Yu to the door, making sure to hand him over to Ye Junshu.

Li Yu just walked out of the palace gate, Ye Junshu was already waiting outside, seeing Li Yu, he shouted happily, "Ah Yu."

Ye Junshu was afraid that Li Yu would wait for a long time, so he said hello before it was time to pay off, and left a little earlier.

Not long after he arrived, Li Yu came out.

Ye Junshu hurriedly stepped forward to support Li Yu, putting his hands on Li Yu's waist.

Li Yu felt much more comfortable in an instant, so he didn't refuse.

"How is life in the palace? Has anyone made things difficult for you?"

Ye Junshu was very concerned.

In Ye Junshu's view, the imperial palace is a dangerous place where one must be vigilant all the time.

Li Yu stayed inside for a day, and Ye Junshu was worried for a day.

Li Yu said: "In the palace, no one dares to bully me."

Li Yu stayed in the palace for a day, and the Big Three had seen each other.

Not everyone has this honor.

Even for His Royal Highness, it is not easy to see Emperor Tai'an, the Empress Dowager and the Empress all in one day.

Li Yu stayed in the Queen's bedroom for a long time, and at noon Emperor Tai'an came to the Queen's side to meet Li Yu and had a meal together.

In the afternoon, the Empress Dowager asked Li Yu to visit her palace in person, and the Empress Dowager met in person.

Li Yu left the palace at this time, and behind him were all the nutritional supplements and precious medicinal materials rewarded by his superiors.

For a while, the concubines in the palace could be envied, but there was nothing they could do.

They couldn't figure out what charm Li Yu had that he was even more beloved than His Royal Highness, the fact was right in front of them, and they couldn't admit it or not.

Ye Junshu heard that Li Yu was fine, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Now that I'm outside, it's hard to talk about some things outside.

It's not too late to ask when I get home.

However, not long after they got into the carriage, they met a carriage.

Ye Junshu was stroking Li Yu's belly and exchanging feelings with the two children, when he suddenly felt that the carriage stopped and did not move, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Master, there is a carriage blocking the way ahead."

When Ye Junshu heard this, his eyebrows moved, and then he opened the door, and saw a luxurious carriage standing carelessly in the middle of the road, followed by guards on both sides on horseback, directly occupying the road.

They just wanted to go around, and the gap between the two was not enough for a carriage to pass.

This road leads to the palace, and Ye Junshu immediately thought of someone.

Not long after, the door curtain of the other party's carriage was opened, revealing the true face of the owner of the carriage.

"Master Ye, what a coincidence!"

really!

Ye Jun wrote with a smile on his face, and greeted the eldest prince without delay, "I will see the King Dai."

Although the eldest prince has not been officially canonized yet, the imperial decree has been announced to the world, and others have also changed their names to the prince.

The prince's mansion is under construction, and Xiahou Xuandai returns to the palace from outside at this time.

When the palace is completed a few years ago and it is formally conferred, it will be moved out of the palace.

"Master Ye is exempt."

"It's the first time we've seen each other since we left Huaichuan. I know you're safe, so I feel relieved."

Xiahou Xuandai didn't get out of the carriage, but sat inside, talking condescendingly.

Ye Junshu said with a sincere smile: "Thank you for your concern, the lower officials also wept with joy when they learned that your lord is safe and sound."

"This king wanted to find Lord Ye's whereabouts together before leaving, but my father was worried about this king, so I had no choice but to leave first."

This is to explain to him that he left before getting Ye Junshu's whereabouts.

Ye Junshu said gratefully: "Lord Lao misses you, I am very kind, Your Majesty's love for your son is really touching, I understand."

Better to leave early!

Otherwise, maybe they will confront them head-on, or they may find something wrong with Li Yu.

In short, Xiahou Xuandai's departure is a good thing for them.

Ye Junshu was dealing with Xiahou Xuandai, and Li Yu also came out.

"Meet the Dai King."

Li Yu saluted briefly, and then said lightly: "I'm inconvenient, I hope I forgive you for being rude."

Xiahou Xuandai really couldn't care about his faux pas.

Otherwise, if word spread that he was embarrassing a pregnant brother, he would lose face.

However, Xiahou Xuandai was also anxious, if he knew that Li Yu was pregnant at the time, most of the people would stay and wait for the opportunity to intercept him if he said anything.

At that time, it will be made to meet rogues.

No matter how declining the Li family is now, it is still a serious problem for the First Prince.

If Li Yu and his wife can be dealt with, it will undoubtedly make the Li family collapse.

In order not to shake the mighty army, Li Changchuan took the initiative to give up the position of Marshal. Now he is just a powerless Marquis, and he doesn't know where he is. Now he is nothing to be afraid of.

Seeing Xiahou Xuandai staring at Li Yu's stomach with a slightly cold look in his eyes, Ye Junshu felt displeased, took a step forward, and pretended to block Li Yu inadvertently.

He cupped his hands and said: "I haven't thanked the lord for saving my life. In order to save the official, the lord accidentally fell into the flood. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm. Otherwise, the official would be Vance, and he could hardly escape the blame."

Anyway, the superficial facts of the publicity are like this.Ye Junshu fell into the water to save the people, and Xiahou Xuandai fell into the water to save Ye Junshu and the people.

No matter what other people think in their hearts, everyone believes it anyway.

Xiahou Xuandai's face froze when he thought of the suffocation feeling of being surrounded by icy water in the flood.

Knowing that he was dragged down by Ye Junshu, Xiahou Xuandai couldn't tell.

He chuckled, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that I still couldn't save people. I have caused Lord Ye to suffer so much. I heard that Lord Ye was unfortunately injured by bandits. I want to visit you, but it's a pity that your house is closed to thank you." .”

This Ye Junshu knew that the second day after they came back, many people posted messages wanting to visit them.

But they were busy recuperating their injuries and raising their babies, and they all wanted to be clean, so they closed the door and thanked guests.

The only ones who received him were the Seventh Prince and Yun Xiaoshi.

And Dai Wang's greeting card was naturally returned.

Ye Junshu cupped his hands and said, "My Lord, I am concerned..." Before Ye Junshu finished speaking, Li Yu reminded him from the side: "My lord, the key to the palace gate is about to be released."

Xiahou Xuandai smiled and said, "This king is going ahead, let's talk another day."

Ye Junshu and Li Yu backed away to let Xiahou Xuandai and his party pass.

"Congratulations to the lord."

Xiahou Xuandai's car left quickly, and Ye Junshu helped Li Yu get into the carriage after he could no longer see anyone.

"Let's go."
