My bad words were heard by all the civil and military officials in the court
Chapter 166 Confirming Identity
Thinking of his own identity, Emperor Jingming looked at Zhang Liang, and saw that Zhang Liang was drinking tea in a very good mood. When he saw him looking at him, he gave him an incomprehensible smile in return.
Emperor Jingming: ...
This old guy, did he expect this or is he really unaware of the situation?
Emperor Jingming suspected it was the former.
Ye Xingxin didn't know what his companions were thinking. When he heard the familiar name, he stood up suddenly. When Old Lady Ye looked over, he asked blankly:
"Master Ye, are you asking for peace of mind?"
Old Madam Ye nodded and smiled as she explained the origin of the name: "This name was given by the child's long-passed mother, who hoped that the child would not be entangled in the trivialities of the world and would be able to live a carefree life."
After saying that, he looked at Ye Xingxin in confusion, "Da Ya, is there something wrong with this name?"
Ye Xingxin shook his head, and asked with a forced smile, "I wonder when this Lord Ye went out on business."
"It was the end of May. The child left in a hurry. I didn't know until someone from His Majesty's side came to inform me."
Ye Shengxin's heart was beating fast. The time was almost right. She suppressed her doubts and asked again, "When will Lord Ye come back? Is there any letter?"
Ye Xingxin asked too many questions, which made Old Lady Ye suspicious. She only replied with the first sentence: "That, an old woman like me doesn't know either."
Ye Shengxin was about to ask more questions when she suddenly found that a group of people in the Ye Mansion were looking at her as if they were guarding against thieves, especially Dong Shi, who looked at her unfriendlyly.
Ye Shengxin still understood the principle that too much is as bad as too little, so he could only shut up.
It doesn’t matter, it will be the same if she goes back to check.
Ye Shengxin became suspicious of the second young master of the Ye family who had the same name and surname. When she returned to Zhang Liang's residence as the Minister of Justice, she asked about Ye Shengxin almost as soon as she entered the room.
Zhang Liang coughed, knowing that he could not hide it any longer, so he could only say: "That Lord Ye does look somewhat similar to you, Xiaoya. As for whether you are her or not, I do not know."
"If you want to know your past, you can go to Ye Mansion to look for clues."
Zhang Liang's words made Ye Shengxin think of Dong Shi, the servant of Lord Ye, with whom she had worked before.
Maybe she could let Hao Duanzhuang restore her real face, and then walk around in front of Dongshi, and she would know the answer.
But after knowing this, if she and Lord Ye had opposite personalities and people close to her noticed it, especially Old Lady Ye who was looking forward to her grandson's return, Ye Shengxin would find it difficult to explain.
But nothing is absolute. Ye Xingxin raised his eyes and asked again, "Master Zhang, what is Master Ye's personality like? Has he caused any trouble in the court? Or has he fallen out with any official?"
Facing the burning gaze of Emperor Jingming, Zhang Liang calmly poured himself a cup of tea, "Lady Ye is calm and steady, and acts cautiously. She is not an unreasonable person. She has been in the court for a short time, so she has not caused any trouble. As for which official she has fallen out with..."
Zhang Liang thought again and again. Ye Shengxin was protected by His Majesty. Even if some secrets were revealed in her heart, no one would dare to provoke her. So he said:
"That's not the case."
Ye Xingxin breathed a sigh of relief, "Does she have anyone in the court that she gets along well with?"
"Of course. The daughter of Pingqing Marquis's mansion, Rong Anle, has been close to Lord Ye. She is also somewhat close to Xu Changyu, the grandson of Censor Xu."
"Besides that, I haven't heard of her having any contact with any adults."
Ye Shengxin had seen the two people Zhang Liang mentioned before, and thought he had a little understanding of them. He felt that if his original identity was really Lord Ye, he should be able to handle it.
"Big Duck, what are you going to do?" Emperor Jingming concluded that Ye Shengxin was the Lord Ye, so he asked with some interest.
Ye Xingxin bit her lip, feeling a little conflicted, and finally decided, "Let's just follow what Master Zhang said. I will go to the courtyard where Master Ye lives in the Ye Mansion tonight."
Emperor Jingming nodded: "I will accompany you."
Zhang Liang thought for a moment and asked, "Do you need me to come over?"
Zhang Xiangyun raised his hand: "You agreed to take mine with you."
Ye Xingxin had a blank face: "... go, everyone go."
Under the canopy, the prince was somewhat expectant, wondering if Lord Ye would find clues to his identity there?
-
Night came quickly, and Ye Shengxin and his three companions landed in the courtyard where the second young master of the Ye family lived. Unfortunately, Dong Shi got up at night and came out of the next room holding a lantern.
Suddenly seeing four people appear, he was so scared that the lantern in his hand fell to the ground, pointing at them and shouting.
Hao Duanzhuang knocked him out with quick movements.
"Just put this in, forget about the stinky socks." Ye Shengxin stepped forward and replaced the thing that Hao Duanzhuang took out.
There is an 80% chance that he is the original owner's servant. We have worked together before. He cannot be so deceiving.
Hao Duanzhuang threw away his socks, blocked Dongshi's mouth with the handkerchief given by Ye Shengxin, and tied him tightly to the pillar next to him. Then he followed the others into Lord Ye's room.
The furnishings in the room were relatively simple. Apart from a cabinet for hiding some things and a dressing table for men, all other objects could be seen at a glance.
Ye Shengxin opened the nearest cabinet and searched inside, but didn't find anything of special meaning. Before closing the cabinet door, Ye Shengxin politely rearranged the quilt and clothes inside before putting them back.
Then he turned to the items that Emperor Jingming had found from the men's dressing table.
Some small change, a wooden hairpin, a purse, a jade pendant of not much value, a round and plump pearl and a hair comb.
It couldn’t be simpler.
Seeing this, Ye Shengxin would be lying if he said he wasn't disappointed. He put the things back in place and suggested, "Let's go to the study and take a look. If we don't find anything there, let's go to Jingzhao Yin again."
The four of them went to the study again.
The study was next door. After Ye Shengxin went out, he found that Dongshi had woken up at some point.
At this moment, his eyes were glaring at me fiercely, his body was struggling violently, and his whole body was silently expressing the words "What are you going to do? You know, this is the territory of Lord Jingzhao Yin."
Before he figured out the matter, Ye Shengxin chose to ignore him. After entering the study, he quickly started searching, completely ignoring the silly boy who was groaning in anger outside.
The commonly used desk in the study was in full view. Ye Shengxin opened the drawer and saw a thick stack of manuscripts inside.
The three words "Hua Mulan" on the first page of the manuscript made her pupils tremble violently.
"Duanzhu, bring in the lantern outside. I can't see clearly."
Hao Duanzhuang did as he was told, and as expected, he saw Ye Shengxin looking shocked and incredulous, with a dazed and slightly confused expression.
Finally, a big question mark appeared above Ye Shengxin’s head.
The manuscript contains three stories, all of which are familiar to modern children.
Ye Shengxin is now certain that he is the second son of the Ye family who concealed his real gender, passed the imperial examination and became the Jingzhao Yin, not to mention that he has invisibly solved a big trouble and a big enemy for himself.
Now Ye Shengxin wanted to know when she came here.
One year ago? Two years ago? Or a puncture?
Ye Xingxin shook his head.
Although she had done well in her studies in her previous life, she still had some self-awareness. She knew that even if she studied hard for ten years, she would definitely not be able to pass the exam to obtain this extremely valuable top spot.
Therefore, Ye Xingxin speculated that she should have come to this world after her original body finished the palace examination, but the specific time and reason for coming here...
Ye Shengxin ignored Emperor Jingming's gaze waiting for her answer and turned to leave the study.
Standing in front of Dong Shi, Ye Shengxin took the initiative to crush a black mass the size of a grain of rice behind his ear, revealing his original face.
Dongshi:!!!
Dongshi went from being full of resentment and anxiety to standing there in a daze.
"woo woo woo woo……"
He gestured to Ye Shengxin to take the handkerchief out of his mouth. Ye Shengxin did so and untied the rope on his body.
As soon as he was freed, Dong Shi knelt on the ground, grabbed Ye Xingxin's hand and said excitedly: "Master, you are finally back. Where have you been for more than three months? How come you didn't send any letters back?"
"Since you returned to the Ye Mansion a few days ago, why didn't you recognize Dong Shi? You know, a lot of things happened in the mansion during the time you were away, and it was the old lady who supported it. Madam Sanchun said that if the old lady was overworked due to her heartache, she might fall seriously ill."
Dongshi started talking a lot, and Ye Shengxin took the opportunity to reply: "Dongshi, I hurt my brain while on a business trip, and I forgot about the past."
Dongshi: ...
Dong Shi looked at the somewhat embarrassed Ye Xingxin and asked foolishly, "Master, are you coming to the Ye Mansion now to steal your own things?"
Ye Xingxin: ...
Ye Shengxin slapped the boy on the shoulder and said angrily, "What are you talking about? I just suddenly found that I have some connection with the Ye Mansion and I doubt my identity, so I came here to look for clues."
Dongshi blinked: "Did you find the master?"
Ye Xingxin shook the manuscript in his hand and said, "I have confirmed my identity through this. However, after I won the first place in the imperial examination, have I ever been sick? Or have any strange things happened to me?"
She touched her nose and said, "You know, Madam has bad intentions towards me. Although she is...missing now, who knows if she has any tricks up her sleeve on me?"
Ye Shengxin asked this because he wanted to know whether the original body’s death was related to Madam Ye.
Dong Shi shook his head and said, "My Lord, nothing strange happened to you after you became the top scholar. It was just that for half a month, you suddenly spoke less and became a little cautious. Once when you met the housekeeper, you almost didn't recognize him."
Ye Shengxin frowned. It seemed that she had occupied the original body unknowingly during that period of time, and had not yet taken over the original body's memory.
I’m so unlucky!
But now Ye Wanqiu is dead. No matter what she had done to the original body before, dying at her own hands under the scheme of her and her friends can be considered revenge for the original body.
"Master, you are back in the capital now. When will you return to the Ye Mansion?" Dong Shi asked with concern. "The old lady misses you very much. As for the master... Master, you are the only son in the mansion now. He should not scold you anymore."
Ye Xingxin had thought about this question before she came. She turned to look at Emperor Jingming and invited him with a smile: "Little Duck, how about you move in with me tomorrow?"
Having my own home is always more comfortable than staying at Lord Zhang's house.
Emperor Jingming had no objection to moving, so he nodded.
Zhang Xiangyun jumped over and said, "I want one too. Come live here."
Zhang Liang had a headache: "Ancestor, you have your own yard, you can't live in it."
Zhang Xiangyun couldn't bear it anymore, and he put his hands on his hips and shouted, "I want to stop!"
The loud noise directly alarmed the other people in the yard. The lights in the house lit up one after another, and they were about to put on their clothes and come out to investigate the situation.
Ye Shengxin had no choice but to whisper to Dong Shi to take care of the aftermath, and then let Hao Duanzhuang take the others away.
The master and his entourage suddenly disappeared in front of him. Dong Shi covered his mouth tightly to prevent himself from screaming. This, this, this... The master went out for a while, did he meet some god?
He can even perform invisibility technique?
"Dongshi, who was talking outside just now?"
A familiar servant came over and asked, and when he saw the study door open with his dazed eyes, he was puzzled: "Who opened the door?"
Dongshi went over ahead of his companions and closed the door, waving his hand and saying, "What are you talking about? There is no one to talk to. You must have been confused from sleep."
"How is that possible? My ears are very sensitive, and this door..."
"The door was blown open by the wind. Hurry up, go back to sleep. You won't have to work tomorrow."
Dongshi drove the people back, and secretly buried the smelly socks and hemp rope that fell in the grass in the soil. He went back to the room to rest only after making sure that everything was safe.
Before he closed his eyes, he suddenly thought of something.
The sudden discovery that the master mentioned, could it be the master's name that the old lady suddenly called out today?
Thinking about the time when the master, who had changed his appearance, chased after him and asked about Lord Ye, Dongshi nodded affirmatively.
He laughed again. Hehe, hehe, he had rushed there in time which led to the subsequent events. He was really the master's lucky star.
-
Early the next morning, Old Lady Ye received news from Dong Shi that her little grandson would be back today. Because of Ye Shengqing's death and Mrs. Ye's disappearance, the sadness and melancholy in her heart dissipated a lot, and a smile appeared on her face again.
He even ate an extra bowl of rice with the help of the nanny beside him.
After the meal, she was still in good spirits and hurried to Ye Shengxin's yard. She directed the housekeeper and servants to quickly renovate the yard. She also asked people to move several pots of flowers that she had carefully cared for from her own yard, preparing to add some joy to the yard.
"Oh, by the way, we can't forget about Shengxin's favorite pancakes. Quick, ask someone to go to Meng's Pancake Shop and buy some more pancakes. They need to be hot."
"Also, send someone to inform the master not to go out and fool around today, to dress smartly, and to go to the gate in person to pick up Sheng Xin."
"Wait." Old Madam Ye stopped the maid who was about to leave, "Remember to remind him not to show disrespect to Sheng Xin, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
The maid responded and left.
-
The one hundred old hens that Zhang Xiangyun asked the market vendor to deliver arrived at Ye Mansion before Ye Shengxin.
A group of chirping hens were hung by their legs at the gate of the Ye Mansion. As they flapped their wings, chicken feathers fell to the ground.
It was such a nice day, but Mrs. Ye couldn't hold back her expression as she looked at the noisy chickens.
"Old farmer, why do you put these chickens at the gate of my Ye Mansion? If you can't sell them, you can go to the back door. I will ask the housekeeper to buy all your chickens. You can take the money and leave early."
