Quick Wear: Host, please be more restrained

The side courtyard was already quiet, and after the man in black left, it returned to its previous quietness.

Xu Yu'an didn't know why, but he used to think that this kind of silence was very relaxing, but now he felt that this small courtyard was too deserted for no reason.

The blue-clothed man's jade-like hand unconsciously touched his cherry-like lips. Thinking of the softness of those lips today, a hint of tenderness flashed across the man's beautiful eyes.

This princess is still very interesting.

Xu Yu'an suddenly thought of the woman who always dressed boldly and warmly, his nominal wife.

Meanwhile, Ye Qiao, dressed in plain clothes, sat at the table, the abacus in his hand ticking non-stop.

According to her current plan, she has almost owned all kinds of shops in the capital, and the next step is to start making profits.

Once you have money, you can then ask for power. The woman frowned, the road ahead is really long.

She also has to compete with Ye Yi, the nominal heir. At the same time, she has to guard against Xu Yu'an, who is pretending to be harmless in front of her.

Ye Qiao really got a headache just thinking about it. In the next world, she would ask Tongzi to transfer her to a simple world where she could live comfortably as a parasite. Ye Qiao thought to herself while calculating on the abacus.

The next day, Xu Yu'an happily went to the main courtyard to find Ye Qiao early in the morning.

"My dear Prince Consort, the princess has been summoned to the palace by His Majesty."

Su Su suppressed her rapidly beating heart and spoke in a low voice.

Xu Yu'an came back empty-handed, so he was naturally not in a very good mood. He frowned and said, "Then I'll come back later."

The man in blue left after saying this, his back looking tall and handsome.

Only then did Su Su dare to raise her head, looking at the back with a hint of fascination in her eyes.

If she were a princess, she would never be so cold...

The next second, a trace of panic flashed across the woman's round eyes. How could she dare to make such an assumption?

She was just a servant girl of lowly status, and was picked up on the roadside by the princess out of kindness.

How dare she have such thoughts? Su Su slapped her head hard. She must be crazy.

Ye Qiao, who was left alone by Xu Yu'an early in the morning, was standing in the imperial study in a red dress.

"I wonder why my father called his daughter here?" Ye Qiao bent down and respectfully faced Emperor Ye, who was wearing bright yellow clothes.

"Your mother is always talking about you, why don't you come to the palace more often?" Although Emperor Ye is over a hundred years old, he is still in good spirits.

When Ye Qiao heard this, she knew that Emperor Ye was madly testing her. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that although she was the Queen's biological daughter, she was not really loved by the Queen.

"It's my daughter's fault for not thinking it through." The woman lowered her eyebrows.

"I made you wander among the people for ten years. Don't you feel resentful?" Ye Di said casually.

"My daughter dare not complain."

The woman was very sincere.

Only then did a hint of satisfaction flash across Ye Di's eyes.

The next second, an exquisite and intricate small wooden box appeared in front of Ye Qiao.

"Father, what is this?"

"Open it and take a look. You have what you want."

The woman in red took the small wooden box respectfully.

Ye Qiao opened it carefully.

The small wooden box was filled to the brim with piles of silver bills.

Just by looking at the thickness, Ye Qiao knew that this was not a small amount.

What is Ye Di doing? The woman couldn't figure out Ye Di's thoughts and looked at him with doubtful eyes.

"Isn't Qiao Qiao short of money recently?" The middle-aged man in bright yellow clothes asked in a slightly loving voice, as if he just mentioned it casually.

But Ye Qiao suddenly understood. He knew that she was frantically buying up shops, and Ye Di obviously supported her approach.

Did he know that she wanted that position?

Ye Qiao didn't show it on his face, but his mind was thinking frantically.

"Thank you, father." The woman in red was about to kneel down to express her gratitude according to etiquette.

Ye Di helped Ye Qiao up and said, "Okay, I'm going to review the memorials."

After saying this, the emperor in bright yellow clothes stepped away.

Ye Qiao couldn't figure out his thoughts. What kind of existence did the original owner's daughter hold in his heart? In the original book, didn't he deeply love Chu Xiyao?

He even only had one son and one daughter with her, and no more offspring. But when I saw the emperor and the empress that day, they didn't seem to be in love?

Forget it, don't think about it anymore, she will just take the money he gave her.

Ye Qiao was thinking about what to do with the money when he bumped into a hard shoulder without paying attention.

Feeling a pain on his forehead, Ye Qiao looked up and saw a man with sharp eyebrows.

The man was wearing black soft armor, so Ye Qiao's forehead hurt so much.

"Your Highness, could you please be a little more careful when you walk?"

Shen Yi didn't expect that when he saw the woman in red from afar, he somehow came in front of her, and the woman was thinking about something.

I didn't notice him at all and bumped into his shoulder.

Ye Qiao felt a little sorry for being distracted, but when she looked up and saw Shen Yi again, she suddenly didn't want to apologize anymore.

"When this princess walks, she can usually only see people. General Shen, shouldn't you reflect on yourself?" The woman in red showed no sign of weakness.

Shen Yi, who was originally joking, realized in a moment that the woman in front of him was saying that he was not a human.

"Ye Qiao!" Upon hearing this, Shen Yi's originally handsome face turned slightly red, and his tone was no longer as calm as before.

When Ye Qiao saw him like that, he was really an elementary school kid, so green and inexperienced.

"General Shen, do you know what crime you will be punished for calling the princess by her name?"

Shen Yi felt that he was sick. When he saw her from a distance, he didn't avoid her, but bumped into her and suffered her anger in vain.

"Hmm?" The woman with fair skin and red clothes fluttering in the wind was very arrogant.

"Princess... Princess, I... admit my mistake." Shen Yi lowered his head with great difficulty.

Ye Qiao was very happy to see the man who was always so imposing lower his head in front of her.

"This princess is in a good mood today, so I will forgive you for now." Ye Qiao said generously.

Shen Yi's face became even darker.

Unlike Shen Yi, Ye Qiao was happier.

"Brother Shen~" The girl's voice was as clear and pleasant as the melodious song of an oriole.

Ye Qiao turned his head and saw Pan Yunxuan, dressed in goose yellow clothes, running out of the pavilion with her skirt lifted.

The woman frowned. This Pan Yunxuan had stayed in the palace longer than she, a real princess. Otherwise, how come she could meet her every time she entered the palace?

Pan Yunxuan ran closer and saw Ye Qiao and Shen Yi standing together. Her bright smile suddenly disappeared.

"Your Highness, best wishes!" The proper etiquette cannot be abolished. Although Pan Yunxuan was unwilling in her heart, Ye Qiao was looking at her straight, so she could only perform the etiquette obediently.

"Get up." Ye Qiao was happy now. She liked watching them being humiliated in front of her.

"Yunxuan, why are you in the palace too?" Shen Yi changed his elementary school look in front of Ye Qiao and asked the girl in a very steady manner.
