Jiaochu

Chapter 485 Think it through
The next morning, Lin Heng wandered outside the yard for a long time, plucked up the courage and walked over. He told two dragon shadow guards that he wanted to see Ye Lingxi. One of the dragon shadow guards walked to the door and reported, then came back and let Lin Heng in. .

Seeing Ye Lingxi, Lin Heng hesitated again, not knowing whether to say anything. She waited patiently for a while, and Lin Heng said, "Second sister is missing." She asked, "Did aunt send someone away secretly? Lin Heng quickly shook his head and denied, "It's not my mother. My mother was worried that it was my father who sent someone away." She asked, "What did uncle say?" Lin Heng shook his head again and asked worriedly, "Could it be... "Being taken away?" She said, "Isn't it good to be taken away? You don't have to be a slave." Lin Heng said angrily, "After all, she is my second sister. It's okay if the princess doesn't want to help." ” He turned away angrily.

Ye Lingxi kicked the door frame and took a deep breath silently. After calming down, she thought of Murong Ze and asked a Long Shadow Guard to ask. Then the Long Shadow Guard came back and reported, "The Crown Prince wants to invite the princess over for tea." She said. After thinking about it, he took a Dragon Shadow Guard with him.

Murongze had already made tea and was waiting for her to come to the door. Jingzhe brought Ye Lingxi into the house.

"What about people?"

Murong Ze asked her to sit down and taste the tea he brewed first. Ye Lingxi said she would not drink tea that was unclear. He took a sip of the tea slowly and said, "It's not poisonous." He added, "The princess doesn't dare to drink it. Could it be that she doesn't want to drink it?" I'm afraid that after drinking my tea, I won't be able to drink other people's tea." She picked up the tea cup and took a sip. "It's bland." Murong Ze curled his lips and smiled, "Then let the princess drink." She said again. As for the questioner, Murong Ze said, "It's very cold in the north. Being a slave there can make people remember better. What does the princess think?" She said, "I thought the prince had taken a liking to my cousin and wanted to act in it. The hero saves the beauty."

"Princess, does she know there is a custom in the north?" Murong Ze asked.

Ye Lingxi said: "I don't know."

"In the north, if a man likes a woman, he will give her a purple hibiscus flower to show that he will not marry her unless she is your queen." Murong Ze said, "And the woman will give back a mandarin duck handkerchief embroidered by herself to show that she will not marry her unless she is your queen. marry."

Ye Lingxi wondered why this was happening, it was a bit strange.

Murong Ze saw that she seemed to have forgotten, so he called Jing Zhe in and asked him what gift he had given to Ye Lingxi when he came to give gifts to the fourth prince. Jing Zhe replied that it was a box. Murong Ze looked at Ye Lingxi playfully and asked Jingzhe replied that he didn't know what was inside.

But Ye Lingxi remembered what was in the box, and her expression suddenly changed. It was a purple hibiscus flower. She was confused at the time and didn't know what it meant to send this. Now that she knew, she felt embarrassed for a moment. Not wanting to stay any longer, he got up and left. In his haste, he accidentally tripped over the threshold. He didn't waste a second and left as fast as he could.

nonsense! It must be nonsense! Why don't you marry me? There must be something wrong with your brain...

When it got dark, Yanfei came back and saw Ye Lingxi sitting on the doorstep looking at the stars. He asked her if she couldn't sleep. She pulled him to sit next to her and looked at the stars together. She asked him where he had been when he left early and returned late these two days. Why, he said he was moving rocks, she asked how long it would take, and he said it was almost done.

The next day, King Pingnan rushed over in a hurry, and Meng Jingxiu and Mu Qi also came. Seeing Meng Tianlan, King Pingnan yelled at him to kneel down, and drew out his sword to kill, but Meng Jingxiu and Ye Lingxi... After being stopped, Ye Yuyao also knelt on the ground to plead for Meng Tianlan. King Pingnan immediately asked Meng Jingxiu to help him up. Ye Xingye told King Pingnan a good news, saying that he was going to be a grandfather. King Pingnan was stunned. Meng Jingxiu was extremely pleasantly surprised and asked her if she was going to be an aunt. Ye Yuyao nodded shyly. For the sake of his little grandson, King Pingnan put away the sword first. Ye Lingxi told the story of the incident. King Pingnan wanted to take Meng Tianlan to the capital to plead guilty, and asked Meng Jingxiu to stay and take care of Ye Yuyao without even tea. Take a sip and leave.

Ye Xingye wanted to find a chance to talk to Meng Jingxiu alone, but the other party followed Ye Yuyao closely, and he really couldn't find any chance.

Finally, in the evening, he saw Meng Jingxiu coming out of the house alone. He immediately waved to say hello to her. Meng Jingxiu looked around. After walking over, he asked her if she had received the two letters she had written before. She was silent for a few seconds and said yes. After thinking about it carefully, he turned around and left. Ye Xingye was confused and very uneasy, feeling bad.

A few minutes later, he appeared in front of Ye Lingxi. After taking a breath, he told her what Meng Jingxiu said and asked her to help analyze what it meant. Ye Lingxi thought about it and said she would go over to him tomorrow to find out.

The next day, Ye Lingxi found Meng Jingxiu and asked her indirectly if her third brother had made her angry. Meng Jingxiu said no, saying that Ye Xingye was very good, but now she didn't know if the two could get together. She knew that the emperor wanted to Asking Ye Xingye to marry King Jin's sister later failed. She didn't think much about it at the time, thinking that as long as her father mentioned it to the emperor later, the emperor would agree to their marriage. But now, she already knows that it is not the case. It's so simple. The emperor will have all kinds of worries and considerations. If the two of them can't be together in the end, it's better to cut the mess quickly so as not to delay each other.

Ye Lingxi said that she would explore her father's intentions when she returned, and would do her best if she could help. Meng Jingxiu was very grateful and said to let nature take its course. Hit someone.

After Ye Lingxi came back, Ye Xingye couldn't wait to ask her what she meant. Ye Lingxi said that such a big change had happened recently and that he really needed time to think about it. He asked him not to disturb the other party for the time being and give the other party some time to recover. Think about it.

The next day, Meng Jingxiu came to say goodbye to Ye Lingxi, and she and Ye Yuyao were preparing to return to the southern border. Ye Xingye happened to be there too. When she heard that they were leaving, she immediately turned red in the face. Meng Jingxiu said that her mother-in-law was very concerned about her and wanted to go back early. , Ye Xingye wanted to escort him personally. Meng Jingxiu said that he would be escorted by the Red Armor Army and nothing would happen. She also asked him not to write to her for the time being. She would write to him when she thought about it clearly, and then left.

Ye Xingye was stunned for a long time, and when he came to his senses, he was even more wilted than an eggplant beaten by frost, and his face was ashen. Ye Lingxi pulled him into the room, poured him a glass of water, and listened to him sigh. After a long while and another long while of persuasion, he finally cheered up a bit.

As a result, Murong Ze came over again and asked, "Why don't Your Highness send the princess off?", which made her lose all her efforts and wanted to sew her mouth shut with a needle.

Until the evening, Ye Xingye was still listless. When it was getting dark, he suddenly wanted to go back to the capital. He asked Ye Lingxi if she would go back with him. She asked him to stay here and wait for his father's order. As soon as King Pingnan left, he So he hurried back, and the gossips in the court would gossip again.

Ye Xingye gave up and could only silently reflect on whether he had done something wrong in front of the stars in the night sky.
