The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife
Chapter 445: Unexplained Promotion
Ouyang Miaoling was busy in the kitchen. She prepared a table full of delicious dishes for her son that did not belong to this era.
Then the mother and son sat together, warmed up a pot of wine made in this era, and for the first time in their lives, they sat down and drank and chatted happily!
The mother and son had a pleasant conversation and time passed quickly. When they were both drunk, Ouyang Miaoling took the opportunity to bring up Ouyang Yi's marriage to see what he thought.
Under the influence of alcohol, Ouyang Yi spoke out the secret buried in his heart.
He said with a dazed look in his eyes: "Mother, do you know? I have a woman I like, but just when I was thinking of asking you to help me propose marriage, I discovered her secret..."
"It turns out that she has been lying to me and concealed her true identity from me. Her intention is to deal with our Regent's Palace. Although we have different positions, my son will not allow anyone to hurt you. Even if it is a girl my son likes, as long as she does something to hurt you, my son is willing to bear the pain and leave her..." After he finished speaking, he seemed to be in great pain, with helplessness and sadness on his face.
Ouyang Miaoling looked at her son in such pain and hugged him distressedly. She said softly: "Son, mother understands your feelings. But sometimes, life is full of helplessness and choices. If that woman really has feelings for you, maybe you can give her a chance to explain?"
Ouyang Yi shook his head, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. "Mother, I can't take the risk. Her deception has made me unable to trust her anymore. Even if she has her reasons, I can't accept it. I would rather bear this pain alone than let her hurt us again."
Ouyang Miaoling sighed and gently stroked her son's hair. "Okay, son, if you have made up your mind, then mother respects your choice. But no matter what, mother will always support you."
Ouyang Yi looked at his mother gratefully and held her hand tightly. "Thank you, mother. You always understand me the best. I will slowly let go of this relationship and start my life again."
As the night deepened, the mother and son continued to drink and chat, enjoying this rare warm time. Although Ouyang Yi still felt pain in his heart, he gradually found peace and strength with his mother's company.
In this way, the mother and son talked freely at the wine table, and the atmosphere was warm and cozy. As time went by, the warm wine on the table gradually ran out, and their conversation gradually came to an end. This pleasant gathering made them feel very satisfied and happy.
The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone through the window onto the bed, the handsome man on the bed, still with a hint of sleepiness on his face, slowly opened his eyes.
It turned out that he woke up because of thirst. He called out to the attendant beside him softly: "Come here, I'm thirsty, pour me a glass of water..." The attendant who was guarding outside the door heard his master's call, pushed the door open and quickly poured him a cup of hot tea.
Ouyang Yi took the teacup, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, as if he wanted to drink up the coolness. After drinking it, he took a deep breath, felt refreshed, and felt much more awake. He yawned lazily, rubbed his eyes, and then turned to the entourage beside him and asked, "What time is it now?"
When the attendant heard this, he quickly replied, "My Lord, it's already past noon..."
When he heard the time announced by the servant, he suddenly jumped off the bed, his face anxious, and said hurriedly: "Why didn't you wake me up earlier? If this delays my going to the palace for the court meeting, the emperor will definitely blame me..." After saying that, he hurriedly put on his clothes.
The servant was not in a hurry, with a faint smile on his face, and said softly: "My lord, please don't be too anxious. The princess sent someone to the palace early in the morning to submit your resignation. From now on, you no longer need to get up early every morning to attend court..."
Ouyang Yi heard the servant's words and showed an expression of disbelief on his face. He asked anxiously, "What did you say? You said that mother handed me a letter of resignation early in the morning?"
"Yes... the princess did order that. She told the servants not to wake you up so that you can sleep until noon."
Ouyang Yi suddenly remembered the complaints and narrations he had made to his mother last night. Perhaps his mother took these words to heart and submitted a letter of resignation to the emperor early in the morning in order to prevent him from being wronged in the future. Thinking of this, Ouyang Yi was moved.
However, he also felt somewhat helpless, after all, this meant that he lost an important position in the court.
However, since his mother had already made this decision for him, why should he worry about it? It would be better to let nature take its course and use this time to have a good rest and enjoy some leisure time.
After he figured it out, his mood gradually calmed down. With the help of his entourage, he dressed neatly and went to his mother's yard to pay his respects to her.
When he first stepped into Ouyang Miaoling's garden, a fresh floral scent filled his nose. The garden was full of colorful flowers, blooming in competition, and the beauty was breathtaking.
Ouyang Yi couldn't help but be attracted by the beautiful scenery before him and stopped to appreciate it.
At this time, Xiaoyue opened the door and walked out of the room. Seeing Ouyang Yi standing in the yard, she walked over, bowed, and made a gesture of invitation with her hand, saying, "The princess is already waiting for the prince in the room..."
Ouyang Yi glanced at the maid and said, "I understand. Let's go..." Then he followed the maid into the room.
As soon as he stepped into the room, he saw Ouyang Li running towards him in high spirits, and said happily: "Brother... Congratulations, brother..."
Ouyang Yi was confused by what Ouyang Li said. His mother had just handed in his resignation today and he had already lost his official position. How could there be any happy event?
He said with a depressed look: "Sister, after you got married, you didn't miss me as your brother that much, and you didn't even come back to see me. Now that you finally came back, how come you've learned to tease me? What good news can there be for me?"
Seeing that Ouyang Yi seemed very disappointed, Ouyang Li continued, "Brother... I'm not teasing you. The emperor has issued an order today, declaring you innocent. Not only are you innocent, but you have also saved the emperor. The emperor has appointed you as the Grand Marshal of the Northern Qi Army. You will be in charge of the entire Northern Qi Army in the future. Isn't it worth congratulating?"
Ouyang Yi was even more confused after hearing this. How did Ouyang Li know something that he didn't even know?
He looked puzzled and asked, "Little sister, where did you hear that? I haven't even received the imperial edict yet, how do you know about it?"
Seeing that Ouyang Yi was still in the dark, Ouyang Li simply explained: "Brother...you don't know, now the entire imperial capital is full of government notices that you have been appointed as the Grand Marshal of the Army by the Emperor. This is an indisputable fact. As for why you don't know, I don't know..."
