Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 448: Seen (Update )
Xiao Lanxi's expression froze.

Of course she didn't dare to go.

The eldest princess will definitely be displeased when she sees her.

If I go over now, wouldn't I be asking for trouble?
"This... forget it. If I go now, I will just cause trouble. I will go and pay my respects to my father when he is well again."

After saying that, without waiting for Ye Chutang's reply, she continued, "I won't delay Miss Ye Er any longer. Mother is still waiting for me in the palace, so I'll go back first."

He came and went in a hurry, seemingly only out of concern for Emperor Mu Wu.

Looking at the figure gradually going away, Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows slightly.

To outsiders, Princess Yuhe is truly a woman of affection and righteousness. She is closely tied to Concubine Ru and her son Xiao Chengxuan, and even in this situation, she still sticks with them.

But she had no one to rely on in the first place, and now that she has this support, how could she give it up easily?

Ye Chutang sighed softly: "It's not easy for Princess Yuhe either."

The young eunuch leading the way sighed, "Isn't it? After all, he is old enough to discuss marriage. Who wouldn't be anxious when this happens? What a pity... He has to run into this kind of trouble!"

Ye Chutang pulled his cloak closer.

Xiao Lanxi returned to Beijing this time, actually for the matter of her in-laws.

Although her biological mother was of humble origin and she had not been favored by Emperor Mu Wu since childhood, with the support of the imperial concubine, she could at least gain a place among the children of aristocratic families.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chengxuan suddenly fell from power, implicating everyone, and even Xiao Lanxi was not immune.

For a powerless princess, this is indeed a very troublesome thing.

but……

Ye Chutang inexplicably felt that Princess Yuhe didn't seem to care as much about her marriage as outsiders imagined.

This isn't quite right.

A cowardly and unfavored princess who has struggled to survive in the harem since childhood and is extremely insecure is actually very likely to regard getting married as her life-saving straw.

But Xiao Lanxi is not like that.

It seems that she doesn't care whether she marries or not, and she doesn't even care who she marries.

On the surface, it seemed like everything was decided by others. Even if a person had no backbone, it seemed that he shouldn't have such an attitude towards this matter...

"Miss Ye Er, we're just ahead." The eunuch's reminder brought Ye Chutang back to her senses.

She raised her eyes and looked forward.

The majestic palace stood quietly, with strict security and a solemn atmosphere.

As soon as she arrived at the door, palace servants came out to greet her.

"Miss Ye Er, you are here!"

Ye Chutang looked inside: "Where's the eldest princess?"

The palace maid hurriedly explained, "Oh, what a coincidence! The princess is discussing matters with several ministers in the side hall! Please go into the hall first! Concubine Rong is here too!"

Having said that, the palace maid led Ye Chutang inside.

Ye Chutang glanced in the direction of the side hall and quickly looked away.

Although the harem is not allowed to interfere in political affairs, the eldest princess's status is different.

This was a powerful figure who had once accompanied Taizu in conquering the world on horseback and had great prestige in the court. When Emperor Muwu suddenly fell ill, of course someone had to come out to take charge of the situation.

The eldest princess is the most suitable candidate for this position.

Ye Chutang nodded slightly, then followed him into the hall.

Walking around the screen, a bitter and sultry smell of medicine hits your nose.

Ye Chutang frowned slightly.

Suddenly, a figure in front of me came into view, and a gentle but enthusiastic voice came -

"This is Miss Ye Er, right?"

Ye Chutang looked carefully and guessed the other person's identity almost instantly.

She stood still, knelt and saluted:

"Your humble servant Ye Chutang greets Her Majesty Rong Fei."
