Ye Qi checked them out, confirmed that they were all right and in good spirits, so he was relieved.

Xi Ran was in high spirits, "Guess who we saw when we went out today?"

Ye Qiwei thought for a while, and said, "Boss and them?" It has been almost a month since they came to the capital, although they came here in the name of Ye Boss and Ye Lao Er's family, but in fact, after arriving here, the two sides have no relationship. have met before.

In the entire capital, apart from these two families, do they have any other acquaintances, so Ye Qi thought, Xi Ran should be talking about Boss Ye and the others.

"What happened to them?" he asked.

With He Mingyi's help, Boss Ye and the others shouldn't have any problems. He knows how much He Mingyi's younger sister is favored in the palace. Correspondingly, the status of the He family has also risen. With a few people, it's a breeze.

Under the background of today's emperor's bewilderment, even people with a higher status than the He family dare not be too arrogant, for fear that the next moment, they will be the ones who will be liquidated.

"Oh, it's not them." Xi Ran pouted, even if it had nothing to do with the grievances in the previous life, but the previous boss Ye's calculations against him were quite ruthless, but it was unsuccessful.

Ye Lao Er is actually relatively fine, but he doesn't like the other party's temperament a little bit, and he says that he is very filial, and it is good to have two points when it is related to interests.Xi Ran can understand, after all, he was really bad-tempered in the past, if you just look at it from his standpoint, it is impossible for him to like it.

Everyone can't please everyone, and that's not a big deal.

Simply mentioning it, Xi Ran didn't take this to heart, but showed a little interested expression: "It was the little brother we rescued the day we came to the capital."

"Didn't he be kidnapped by the robbers that day? In fact, it was planned by his stepmother. The time was relatively short that day, and Wan Le didn't get it out of the robbers' mouths, but that little brother already knew it in his heart." Afterwards, it was found out by the yamen that it was indeed done by his family."

"I heard people say that when he went back that day, he immediately took revenge and turned the troublemakers in that family upside down. Now the stepmother is talking bad things about him every day."

After participating in so many gatherings, although I know some gossip about various families in the capital, the little brother's family they saved, that is, the Jiang family, is well-known in the capital.

Jiang's father, that is, the little brother's father, was originally from a family, but the family declined when he was young, but this man and Jiang's mother, the Chen family, were unmarried couples who were married by the belly.Compared with the decline of the Jiang family, the Chen family is still prosperous, and there is only one daughter in the Chen family. One can imagine how easy the life of the Chen family will be.

Because the Jiang family was gone, the Chen family took Father Jiang's child into their own family to raise.

Thinking about growing up with my daughter's childhood sweetheart, and cultivating some relationships.

Jiang's father himself is indeed a bit capable, and he is very talented in reading. With the help of the Chen family, he walked quickly along the way. When he was old, Jiang's father married the Chen family.But within a few years, Chen's parents passed away one after another.

And the cousin who also lived in Chen's family since she was a child suddenly became pregnant. No matter how much she cried bitterly, she refused to tell who the child belonged to, looking for death and life all day long.

In the end, for the sake of the cousin, the family decided to accept the cousin as a concubine.

Chen grew up with her cousin, who has always been very kind to her, and the two have a deep relationship, so she didn't suspect anything at the time, and it was she who asked Jiang's father to accept her cousin.But gradually, Mrs. Chen realized that something was wrong. First, Jiang’s father had an affair with his cousin because of drunkenness. It's a family, so maybe it's not a bad thing.

But after that, the relationship between Jiang's father and his cousin became better and better. The cousin refused to tell who the father was. After the child was born, since he was somewhat similar to Jiang's father.

No matter how much Mrs. Chen trusted these two people, she should feel that something was wrong. After many investigations, she discovered that the two of them had already gotten along well. wealth.

In a fit of anger, Mrs. Chen fell ill in bed, and after a few years of lingering on the sick bed, she went away.

Only one younger brother, Jiang Zhuqiu, was left behind.

When the Chen family was gone, Jiang's father hurriedly helped his beloved cousin into the main room. The cousin lived in the Chen family since she was a child. If she wanted to please the Chen family, she had long held a grudge against the Chen family. Room, of course it would be bad for the little brother Jiang Zhuqiu who stayed behind.

But Jiang Zhuqiu was not a person who resigned himself to fate. Although Mrs. Chen was confused earlier, during the two years she was lying on the hospital bed, she was able to see clearly no matter what, so she gave everything she could give to the child.

After the death of the Chen family, part of the Chen family's property fell into the hands of Jiang's father and cousin without accident, but the other part was in the hands of Jiang Zhuqiu.

Jiang Zhuqiu didn't say anything about it.

Jiang's father and cousin are both vain and extravagant characters. When they were in the Chen family, they were controlled by the master of the Chen family and did not dare to show it. But after everyone in the Chen family was gone, a large amount of wealth fell to In their hands, they instantly lost control.

In the atmosphere of extravagance in the increasingly troubled times of the capital, the two of them have almost given the wealth in their hands to Huo Huo for so many years.

At the same time, Jiang Zhuqiu knew how his mother got there, and he was unwilling to let his family's property fall into the hands of these two people. When he was young, he couldn't compete, but when he grew up, he took part of it into his own hands.

After all, Jiang's father and cousin are not people who can run the business, let alone Jiang Zhuqiu who is secretly making trouble.Back then, Father Jiang gave so many things to his beloved cousin, but suddenly found that there was no money in the family, and he was furious. Seeing that Jiang Zhuqiu was able to do something, Father Jiang decided to call the shots and handed over some shops to him. hands.

The housekeeper of the Jiang family was given to Jiang Zhuqiu, and the Jiang family had to rely on Jiang Zhuqiu for food. Jiang's father couldn't do too much. After all, he was not good at these things, let alone his cousin. Everything is gone.No matter how affectionate he was at the beginning, after so many years, Father Jiang is no longer that passionate person.

If he was really a person who is full of love and drinking water, he would not have married the Chen family for the sake of the Chen family's family property.

In this way, Jiang Zhuqiu's status in the Jiang family continued to improve, and he was very capable of dealing with his cousin, mother and daughter.

This family is in the middle of the capital, and there is a lot of commotion.

As a stepmother, the cousin kept ruining Jiang Zhuqiu's reputation outside, and the reputation was gone anyway. Jiang Zhuqiu probably broke the jar and was too lazy to care about these things. No matter how these external things are, they can't let him life is better.He dealt with his stepmother, mother and daughter even more blatantly. If these two people refused to let him be well, he would have to take revenge.

Everyone in their family has a bad reputation outside. Jiang Zhuqiu's strong character is not a good thing for a brother. Although many people know that he is doing the right thing, but I don't want to marry such a daughter-in-law back.Therefore, Jiang Zhuqiu's reputation in Beijing is not good, but Jiang's father and cousin have not had a good time. They ruined Jiang Zhuqiu's reputation, and Jiang Zhuqiu did not save them face. The matter of property was also exposed.

Jiang's father was raised by the Chen family, so there is no need to say anything about his reputation outside the world for treating the other's only daughter like this.

But there are old emperors who are fatuous and absurd, and there are quite a few high-ranking families in the mediocre harem. In this capital, there are not a few families who have a lot of absurd things.

So these things about Jiang's father, apart from causing some excitement, did not have any other major impact.

Seeing what he said with relish, Ye Qi couldn't help asking: "It sounds like you really like this person?"

Xi Ran nodded: "We rescued him, so naturally we should pay more attention to him. Besides, I like good-looking people, and that little brother is very good-looking." He looks a little cold, but he is acting Being a pie is not clean, and it is quite comfortable to get along with.

A few days before they sent it back, they even sent a thank you gift.

Everything was done properly, and he naturally liked it.

"And I also want to explore and show Wan Sheng whether it is suitable."

He didn't count on his own daughter, so he simply shifted his thoughts to his son.

Speaking of Ye Wansheng, Ye Qi thought about it, but felt that the two of them seemed pretty good together.

This little brother relies entirely on himself, and does not cling to the influence of others every step of the way. He seems to be very assertive and clear-headed. He is not a person with bad ideas. If his stupid son rations such a Smart man, Ye Wansheng took advantage of that.

However, "It also depends on the opinions of the two of them. It is a good thing to be together, but let's observe and observe first."

Xi Ran nodded, he originally thought so too.

Now I just have a good impression of the other party, and I haven't had much contact with him, so there is no need to make sure all of a sudden, after all, the child is not too old, even if we get married in a few years, it is not a big deal.

……

After Ye Qi left, the old emperor fell ill. He lay in bed for several days, coughing up blood and being unconscious. He would only wake up occasionally. This was not the first time for the old emperor.

He used to be like this too.

His body is weak, and he still likes sex. From time to time, he comes to swim with a few people, takes various medicines, and he also takes the pills practiced by the Taoist priests in the palace.

In this way, it is no wonder that he is not sick.

But this time, after he woke up during the coma, he has been sending people to Ye Qi's mansion, offering various conditions, hoping that Ye Qi can restore him to health, of course, if he can directly restore him to his youth state, it is even better.

Ye Qi ignored all these requests.

He just needs to confirm that the old emperor will not die for the time being. For him, the old emperor is more useful alive than dead.

On the contrary, the old emperor's critical illness this time made the struggle between the several princes more vigorous, and they even recruited influence, and even recruited him.

Ye Qi couldn't laugh or cry at this.

However, he didn't take these promises of the princes seriously, saying that he would never be embarrassed in the future, he would be promoted to a noble, etc., and there was such a big power in the southwest, no matter who became the emperor, he would not turn a blind eye to it.Especially with the loyalty of those people, which has not changed for more than ten years, he does not believe that any emperor will be willing to give them a good result.

Even if it is himself, if he looks at it from another standpoint, he may not be so tolerant.

He laughed directly, and said amusedly: "After so many years, could it be that the third prince thinks that I am only satisfied with this?"

The other party looked embarrassed.

I understood what he meant.

This is trying to go one step further.

They are not allies that can be connected, on the contrary, the other party should be more vigilant against him.

But even if these princes knew it, it would be of no use. The most powerful leaders in the southwest were indeed all here, but they couldn't be killed, and there was nothing they could do about them.Even if something happened to these people, they were still afraid of riots in the southwest.

There was no way, things froze here, instead, a group of people who had been working hard on the emperor turned into worrying about whether the forces in the Southwest would rebel immediately.

Let the old emperor's side be quieter, and there are not so many troublemakers every day.

Ye Qi and Xi Ran didn't go to see Ye Boss and Ye Lao Er, but the post from the He family was sent to their house.

The old lady of the He family held a banquet and invited everyone to come over.

With their current status, no matter whether they go or not, those who invite will still be invited.

Ye Qi looked at the post and asked, "How is He Mingyi doing now?"

After he came here, he didn't deliberately pay attention to these people's affairs.

But Xi Ran should understand something.

Sure enough, Xi Ran replied: "I heard that they took a concubine, that is, the girl named Qiuyun who accompanied them in the town for a while. It is said that they were assassinated by someone on the way back. That girl Protecting each other with their lives, the two of them hid under the cliff for a while, and He Mingyi said that they had lost their memory, and after getting along for a long time, they fell in love with each other for a long time, and they got together."

"Originally, He Mingyi wanted to marry her as his wife, but the He family disagreed, but because of the grace of saving his life, he let him take her as a concubine."

Ye Qi nodded, he didn't know exactly what kind of couple He Mingyi and Qiu Yun were, anyway, he only remembered that they were a couple and they were Ye Xiaoqing's backer.

Xi Ran said again: "The He family held this banquet this time, probably because they wanted to find a concubine for He Mingyi."

This made Ye Qi a little surprised, "How could this happen?"

Xi Ran said: "I also listened to the gossip, I heard that Qiu Yun was pregnant, and the He family was very dissatisfied with He Mingyi's desperate decision to take Qiu Yun as the main wife before. After the child is born, I'm afraid no daughter of a good family will be willing to marry He Mingyi." A more particular family will definitely not be willing to let Mr. Concubine have a child.

Let's not talk about other things, at least the main wife will marry in first, and other things can be discussed later.

But they haven't married yet, so of course it won't work.

In a few days, the He family's banquet officially started, and Ye Qi took Xi Ran and the two children to join in the fun.
