, Chapter 29(1/2)
Mrs. Han's face turned ugly almost instantly.
She was a little embarrassed and a little ashamed and said to Ye Qing: "The concubine in the house is ignorant and asked the nobleman to laugh at him."
After saying this, she gave a wink to the nanny beside her, and the nanny immediately stepped down.
Ye Qing is a guest, and she doesn't care about other people's private affairs, so she just said "no obstacle".
The old lady quickly stopped when she went out: "Auntie Liu, there are distinguished guests in the mansion to visit, this is not a place where you can make trouble."
The charming voice quickly rang out again: "Dear Guest, what kind of distinguished guests came to the house at this moment? On weekdays, my husband always asks me to receive guests. I want to see what kind of distinguished guests are, and I can actually let the wife receive them on her back."
There was another push and shoving outside.
In the room, Mrs. Han's face was frighteningly cold.
Ye Qing was a little surprised. Mrs. Han didn't look like a witty person. She could actually make an aunt in the mansion dance so hard?
As soon as she thought about it, she never thought that the door would be knocked open. Two thick women made the woman open the way. One of them was wearing a pink skirt and a short cover of water red collars and walked over with her slender waist.
The nanny whom Mrs. Han had just sent out was pressed aside by several little maids.
The woman's face was very charming, and she was born with a seductive spirit.
"Sister, you are in broad daylight and you are still secretly receiving a guest. If you let your husband know, you may think you were stealing someone behind your back." The woman covered her mouth and smiled, looking at Ye Qing with her eyes dripping toward Ye Qing, but Ye Qing was standing sideways to her, and she did not see Ye Qing's appearance clearly.
"Bold!" Zi Zhu's eyes widened. Although the woman said that she was embarrassing Mrs. Han, she also scolded Ye Qing in.
Mrs. Han's face turned pale and she quickly apologized: "Stop the anger of a noble man, it is because the wife of the minister is not strict in discipline on weekdays, so she has hit the noble man."
The concubine named Liu was probably so spoiled by lawlessness on weekdays. Governor Han was one of the best officials in Jiangnan. In addition to Yangzhou Prefect Sun Mingyi, he could also suppress him. Governor Han was basically the only one in Yangzhou City. Liu was very favored by Governor Han and was always held everywhere. Naturally, she developed a arrogant and extravagant temper and was even more arrogant than Mrs. Han.
She thought Ye Qing was Mrs. Han’s guest. She relied on the favor of Governor Han and caused trouble to Mrs. Han a lot. Now she asked arrogantly: “I wonder which wife is this?”
Her reputation outside is naturally not good, but Liu doesn't care about these things. As long as Mrs. Han is still here, she will be a concubine for the whole day. What kind of reputation do the concubine want? Those noble ladies should come to her for being more comfortable in the officialdom in order to make their men easier in the officialdom, and those who should come to her to beg her to plead with her in front of the governor of Han will also come.
Mrs. Liu knew very well what she wanted. She wanted to be angry with Mrs. Han every day, and it would be better to make her angry and she went directly to the position. So Mrs. Liu would not miss any chance to make things difficult for Mrs. Han.
Mrs. Han has been completely indifferent to Governor Han over the years. Even if Liu is so lawless on weekdays, she turns a blind eye. But today she can't help but Liu is so rude. She shouted sternly: "Come on, drag me down this ignorant concubine who is ignorant and take care of me!"
The servants who were waiting outside the door looked at each other for a moment. No matter how long Mrs. Han has been in charge, the entire Han Mansion was almost the final decision. Liu's family was always favored, so they really didn't dare to take action.
Several loyal servants around Mrs. Han wanted to go forward, but there were two big-skinned and round-waisted women around Liu, and they couldn't do anything to Liu for a moment.
Ye Qing, who was sitting in the inner room, whispered: "The people in the Han Mansion are too ignorant of the rules."
As soon as she finished speaking, two maids immediately came out of the inner room. Both maids were royal secret guards who had just been transferred to Xiao Jue this morning. They each held Liu's hand and carried the person out.
The two mothers around Liu wanted to come forward to help, but the two martial maids stretched out their legs and kicked them skillfully, which made the mother kneel and wail.
Wu Maid threw Liu out of the door, and one of the Wu Maids with a small mole on the corner of his mouth said, "I heard that you are the concubine of the Han Mansion. If you dare to come here to make trouble again, I can guarantee that Lord Han will not be able to protect you."
Liu sat blankly on the dam outside the house, still a little confused. She had never been so angry since she became the concubine of Governor Han, but the techniques of the two maids made her feel scared and dared not cause trouble again.
Liu's maid ran over to help her up, cursed and said, "Did they eat the courage of the bear heart and the leopard? How dare they treat you like this..."
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Han's wet nurse brought someone over to tie Liu's house and pushed her to go to the ancestral hall to kneel down first.
Liu was shocked and angry, and cursed: "Song Wanqing, you poisonous woman! Who can you blame yourself for your son? You are just jealous of me and gave birth to the eldest son for your husband! If you dare to touch me, not only will your husband not spare you, but your mother and father-in-law cannot spare you!"
Mrs. Han's wet nurse looked hatred, she covered Liu's mouth and dragged the person away, and then she calmed down.
In the room, Mrs. Han listened to the words Liu scolded, and a few traces of mourning flashed in her eyes. She knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed to Ye Qing deeply: "Good man forgive me..."
Ye Qing didn't say anything. Zi Zhu had been with her for so long, and could guess what she was thinking, so she said to Mrs. Han: "Madam, get up, my master just likes Jing."
Mrs. Han stood up, and Ye Qing was not interested in the conflicts between their concubines' rooms, and said directly: "I heard that my father is in the palace, and I want to see him."
Mrs. Han glanced at the people around her and confirmed that they were all her confidants. Then she lowered her head and said, "My wife will arrange it now."
When she noticed that when she mentioned Ye Shangshu, Mrs. Han seemed to be a little secretive in her words, and Ye Qing couldn't help but think a little more. Xiao Jue told her that Ye Shangshu was recuperating in the Han Mansion, but when she asked about this, Mrs. Han's attitude was obviously a bit concealed.
It is obvious that not everyone knows Ye Shangshu in the Han Mansion, and even Lord Han and his wife are trying to hide it.
Thinking of Chen Mi who heard in the Liu Mansion that the imperial court came to provide disaster relief, Ye Qing immediately guessed that perhaps someone wanted to harm Ye Shangshu, after all, they all met a wave of assassins last night.
As long as Ye Shangshu died, he could be punished for any crime.
So now, Shangshu Ye’s whereabouts cannot be revealed, otherwise those people would not have done anything for the sake of their interests.
Thinking of this, Ye Qing's blood all over his body became cold.
Her eyes fell on the two martial maids and said, "Your Majesty just said to give me two maids this morning. I didn't have time to ask you in the car before, what are your names?"
The two martial maids knelt in front of Ye Qing, and when asked about their names, they looked at each other in a slightest look.
The maid with a small mole on the corner of her mouth replied, "If you go back to the queen, we... don't have a name."
They are secret guards trained by the royal family since childhood, with only code names and no names.
When Ye Qing heard this, his thoughts turned around, he thought of this and said, "How about the name given to you by this palace?"
When the two maids heard this, they were a little happy and kowtowed, "Thank you, Empress!"
As a despicable name, Ye Qing couldn't think of any good name for a moment. After thinking for a moment, he said, "The big palace maids around me have the word bamboo. You will continue to use the word bamboo in your name, calling it Mo Zhu, how about Wen Zhu?"
"Thank you for your name!" The two maids said in unison, and the maid who was named Mo Zhu was the one with a small mole on his lips.
"This time, Your Majesty is visiting privately. You can call me my wife outside." Ye Qing pointed out.
Both maids should be.
"If you don't understand anything, you can ask Zizhu." Ye Qing said.
Zi Zhu is her great palace maid. Although she is not very smart, she is very loyal. When she encounters danger, she can sacrifice her life for her. Ye Qing cannot make Zi Zhu feel that she doesn't value her anymore, which makes her heart cold.
This time he left the palace for a hurry, Xiao Jue also saw that there was not enough staff around her. After experiencing the assassination last night, he felt relieved to let two martial maids beside her.
Since these two martial maids were from royal secret guards, they were absolutely loyal to Xiao Jue and might not be so loyal to him. Ye Qing understood this very well.
She would reuse these two maids, but she would not let them go over Zizhu. Zizhu was not smart, but she could teach her.
The same thing is said, only those who can truly trust are those who are loyal to themselves.
The Han Mansion split a small courtyard for Ye Shangshu. There were guards outside the courtyard, so ordinary people were not allowed to approach the courtyard.
Mrs. Han went to the study to get the private seal of the governor of Han, and led the generals who guarded the courtyard to let Ye Qing go in.
Entering from the gate is a bluestone corridor, which leads to a hanging flower arch. The arch and the stone wall next to it are covered with dense creepers.
When he arrived in front of the arch of the flowers, Ye Qing saw a man putting a chair in the courtyard inside, holding a book in his hand and flipping through it.
"You are waiting here." Ye Qing whispered to Zi Zhu and Mo Zhu who followed in, both of them nodded obediently.
Then Ye Qing walked into the courtyard and called out: "Father."
The original owner was not very close to Mrs. Ye, so it goes without saying how unfamiliar he had with Ye Shangshu, his father. I remember that they had never met many times.
Hearing the call, Ye Shangshu turned around and looked a little stunned.
Obviously he only knew that he had a daughter who was the queen in the palace, but he had no impression of her daughter's voice, appearance and appearance.
"Sister Qing... Queen?" He called Ye Qing, realizing that Ye Qing was now the queen, and that it was so inconsistent with etiquette, he immediately changed his words.
Shangshu Ye is more than seven feet tall and has a dignified appearance. Now he has long beards and has a bit of the elegant demeanor of a scholar.
"Why are you here in Jiangnan?" Ye Shangshu was very shocked.
Ye Qing said: "The flood in Jiangnan shocked the court and the people, and His Majesty has visited Jiangnan in person."
What she said was half true and half false. After all, Xiao Jue went south secretly. She said this to scare Ye Shangshu and wanted to know if he was greedy during this flood control.
After hearing her words, Ye Shangshu looked more and more shocked, but she had come to Jiangnan. It can be seen that the emperor she said just now came to Jiangnan in person, and this is true.
Ye Qing hit the railway while the heat was hot: "My father also knew that the flood in Jiangnan was in great trouble. He learned that you were swept away by the flood before, and his grandmother personally came to the palace to ask me and the queen mother, and his brother also brought the man in the clan to find you."
"Was that gangster Jiannan coming to Jiangnan?" I wonder what kind of brains Ye Shangshu was, Ye Qing said so much that he only caught this sentence.
Shangshu Ye asked, "Where is Jiansong? Does Jiansong go with him?"
Ye Jiansong was the concubine son of Shangshu Ye who entered the court as an official.
At this moment, Ye Qing suddenly understood why Mrs. Ye was so extreme and unreasonable. Shangshu Ye disappeared, and the first person to come to find him was Ye Jiannan, but the first sentence he was concerned about was his treasure son Ye Jiansong.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Ye Shangshu realized that what he said just now was inappropriate and said embarrassedly: "That boy Jiannan would cause trouble on weekdays. I'm afraid that after he went to Jiangnan, he would cause something to happen at this critical moment..."
He added: "Jiansong is steady and sensible. If Jiansong is together, he will definitely not let that kid do whatever he wants."
Ye Qing had a slightly unwarranted smile on his lips: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint my father. This time, only the elder brothers and no concubines."
Seeing Ye Qing's attitude was subtle, Ye Shangshu was a little embarrassed, but he still said, "Why are the gangsters who are not gangsters? Are they all your brothers?"
Ye Qing closed his eyes and didn't want to talk about this topic with Shangshu Ye anymore. He said straight to the point: "I remember, before my father took this job, I told him what he told him to you to reject him, why did his father take it again?"
Thinking of the agreement he reached with Xiao Jue, Ye Shangshu said: "Being a father will naturally have a consideration for being a father. You are a woman, what do you care about?"
Ye Qing was suffocated by what Ye Shangshu said, and she laughed angryly: "Your consideration, your consideration is to make the Ye family greedy for enjoying the official silver for water control? Let my grandfather be ridiculed by the world in the nine springs? Let my grandmother enter the palace late at night and be poked at the back and mocked by someone?"
"I greedy for water control official silver? All the official silver is not even my hand!" After hearing Ye Qing say this, Shangshu Ye was a little anxious.
Ye Qing was relieved when Shangshu Ye said this. He was fine if he was not greedy.
However, Ye Qing's tone was still not very good: "But this water treatment errand fell on you. Now that the flood in Jiangnan has caused such a great disaster, who will repay this crime?"
Seeing that Ye Shangshu was silent, Ye Qing continued: "As soon as the flood occurred, my aunt asked the clan to present the rice shop to the court, but the disaster relief grain sent from the Ye family rice shop to Jiangnan was all moldy rice."
To be continued...
