C224 (1/2)

Today, Yuanxi had captured Zhou, and because the Mama Su and the Master Xuan Ling by the empress dowager's side had arrived personally, their Xu Family was lively for several hours.

The last to leave was naturally Xu Nuanwen's family. If it wasn't for Ye Jingxing who had gone through great difficulties to beg the Emperor Ruikang and said that they had entered the palace for many days and missed their sons, hoping to stay in the Fifth Prince Palace outside the palace for the night, they might not be able to come out today.

Seeing that her wife was not willing to leave, Ye Jingxing knew in his heart that she was thinking of him in case they meet again.

At that time, even if Old Madame Xu is the wife's own mother, he would have to pay her respects.

No matter how hard Xu Nuanwen tried, the Old Madame Xu was still unmoved, and did not mention anything about leaving her family to eat dinner.

Therefore, Xu Nuanwen could only leave the Xu Family in the end under the urging of her husband and her sons.

After sending off all the guests, Old Madame Xu said that she was tired, and let Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu bring him back to the Shihuan Courtyard to rest. There was no need for him to come to her place to eat dinner.

The reason why Old Madame Xu said this was because of the liveliness that had already passed. Secondly, Old Madame Xu was indeed tired, and secondly, Old Madame Xu felt that it was better to let her family of three have a good time since she was an old lady.

Xu Shiqiu was very clear about Old Madame Xu's personality, there were many female members of the Palace that had come today. Although Eldest Sister-in-Law, Second Sister-in-law and Eldest Nephew were here to receive them, Mother and Young Girl were indeed very tired.

Furthermore, Xu Shiqiu also had something to say to his Young Girl, so after his Old Madame Xu said it, he did not decline.

When Xu Shiqiu carried Yuanxi in one hand and brought Dong Shu with the other to the Shihuan Courtyard, they saw that Wang's Disease had already prepared hot water with Ling Xiang and the others.

Xu Shiqiu wanted to bathe together with Dong Shu, but Dong Shu directly carried Yuanxi and left first, ignoring Xu Shiqiu's fiery gaze.

Looking at Young Girl's back, Xu Shiqiu raised his eyebrows and smiled.

He had a premonition that from tomorrow onwards, the capital would be in chaos for a while longer. Thus, tonight, no matter what, he would have to cause a ruckus at the Young Girl twice.

After the family took a bath and changed their clothes, the sky gradually darkened.

However, because they had eaten too much today, the whole family was not very hungry. Receiving the instructions from their masters, Wang's Disease decided to heat up a pot of broth in Shihuan Courtyard's small kitchen, and also took out the large kitchen noodle roll, wonton, dumplings and other ingredients that were specially wrapped and placed in the small kitchen.

Tonight was the Chinese New Year's Eve, and even if she did not go out to enjoy the lanterns, she would not have gone to bed so early. Thus, she had prepared some food, which she arranged very well.

After confirming that the Wang's Disease had well arranged everything in the courtyard, Dong Shu then let the Mama Yan rest. She took the soft cloth and started to wipe Yuanxi's hair bit by bit.

Xu Shiqiu looked at Young Girl who was wiping Yuanxi's hair carefully, thought for a moment, and spoke: ”Today, we discussed a bit, and then Brother-in-law and I went to see Yan Ye alone, and felt that this matter was not simple.”

Dong Shu didn't understand these things initially, but because she had a lot of things to do in the past few months and Xu Shiqiu wasn't home before, she gradually understood a lot of things that she didn't understand before.

Now that he heard Xu Shiqiu's words, he knew that there was something big going on.

”What do you mean?” Dong Shu stopped rubbing his hair. Without waiting for Yuanxi to raise her head in doubt, she continued to wipe his hair. She only looked at him without moving her eyes away.

Seeing that Dong Shu had revealed such an expression, Xu Shiqiu immediately spoke: ”We discussed this matter with the others first, although they all felt that it was not simple, they did not guess anything. I only saw that brother-in-law's expression was a little strange, but since there were so many people, I did not ask, but everyone had agreed that no matter what His Majesty said tomorrow morning, as well as what the others said, they would all end up biting Ye Jingche and the Liu Family. ”

Saying up to here, Xu Shiqiu paused for a bit. Seeing that Yuanxi had dried the hair on hherhead, she reached out and hugged Yuanxi in his arms, then continued: ”Later on, I thought that brother-in-law's expression was a little strange. I was just about to speak privately with him, but who knew that he actually took the initiative to ask to see Yan Ye. When the two of us see Yan Ye, Brother-in-law finally revealed his guess. ”

Dong Shu saw Xu Shiqiu carrying Yuanxi away, so she stood up and walked to the side, and poured herself a cup of warm water to drink. She did not wait for Xu Shiqiu to speak, and turned to look at him: ”Continue.”

Upon hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Shiqiu smiled at her ingratiatingly: ”I'll have to trouble your wife to get a cup of warm water for your husband.” After saying that, he hurriedly explained, ”After taking a bath and talking so much, I feel like my mouth is very dry.”

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Shu stared at him helplessly. Then she carefully poured herself half a cup of warm water and placed it near his lips.

After Xu Shiqiu drank half a cup of warm water, he then looked at Dong Shu and continued, ”Brother-in-law said that this matter, from the very beginning to the end, seemed to have a special style of doing things for the Seventh Prince's Ye Jingde. He even asked Yan Ye if he had met Ye Jingde after entering the capital.”

”Ye Jingde? Seventh Prince? ”

Dong Shu did not have a deep impression of the Seventh Prince, but because of the matter regarding his Crown Princess's production, she came into contact with the Sixth Prince Ye Jinghui.

The most important reason was that she had met the Madame Liu at that time, and because of what happened at the palace's New Year's Eve banquet, she had a deep impression of the Madame Liu.

On the other hand, Seventh Prince Ye Jingde, whom she could only recall seeing before, but he could not recall any more.

Looking at Dong Shu's expression, Xu Shiqiu could guess that she probably had no impression of Ye Jingde.

”I didn't know much about Seventh Prince at first, but because of the relationship between the two of them, as well as the matter of Seventh Prince's mother plotting against the Consort De's Empress, Brother-in-law always paid attention to him. Since Brother-in-law is able to say that it's him, it is not without reason. Merely, I did not expect that after taking care of one Ye Jingche, another Ye Jingde would emerge. ”

Dong Shu could understand Xu Shiqiu's words.

He originally thought that after taking care of Ye Jingche, after his brother-in-law ascended the throne, his family would be able to live a peaceful life. However, now that Ye Jingde appeared again, this person wasn't as direct as Ye Jingche.
