Spring Courtyard Forbidden Pet
Chapter 26 Ye Xue Almost Killed the Marquis
Li Chengge's pupils constricted. If people knew about his relationship with Ye Xue now, it would undoubtedly be digging his own grave.
He immediately walked over and stared at Ye Zhen fiercely, "Ladies, don't waste your time here and cause me any more trouble."
The second half of the sentence was almost squeezed out from between his teeth. He wanted to touch Ye Zhen, but she dodged him skillfully.
Li Chengge had no choice but to hold the white jade teacup on the small table and threatened in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "If you dare to make me unhappy now, this general will not let you have your way."
After saying this, he felt a little regretful. Given her personality, she would definitely be angry with him again.
However, Ye Zhen didn't even frown, and said calmly, "In terms of meanness, I'm naturally not as good as the general."
"you···"
Li Chengge was rebuked by her. He saw her turn around and walk to the screen. Her slender fingers gently stroked the pattern. Her shiny nails shone slightly in the light, which was very beautiful.
She pushed hard, and the screen tilted in front of people, and the light shone on the water ripples at the foot of the mountain. The black shadow lost its horns and whiskers and looked like a python as thick as an arm.
The crane on the left is standing on one leg, looking up at the sky, like an immortal creature about to ejaculate, or a fairy creature staying in the human world.
Look at the tiger on the right. Because of the angle and light changes, it looks more like it is resting by the water, with its eyes narrowed.
Everyone was so shocked by the change that they were speechless. Ye Zhen said softly, "This double-sided embroidery thread uses Qingzhou Boguanglin. It changes position every morning, noon, and evening depending on the light. There are at least three different pictures to enjoy."
“That’s the real reason why it’s so valuable.”
"As for the latter part, it can't be considered a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix, because the big bird on the top of the mountain looks like a phoenix, but it doesn't have a crown or tail. It should be a legend about a mythical bird in Kiyosu."
"This screen is a good thing, but it is indeed not suitable to be displayed here today. Third sister was probably afraid of neglecting the ladies, so she wanted to find something rare and interesting, so she was deceived by the shop."
Ye Zhen half-said and half-smiled, without showing any blame or sarcasm.
As she looked up at the screen and explained to everyone, the light shone on her snow-white dress. Coupled with her clear voice, she exuded an inexplicable sense of calmness from head to toe, just like the way she looked when she was reading the military book in Li Chengge's study that day.
"And this teacup, I think it was a birthday gift from my eldest sister to my third sister. Although it is valuable, my third sister is aware of her low status and dares not use her own things to serve the ladies."
"Third sister can do this for the general. I am really ashamed of myself."
She nodded and smiled self-deprecatingly, and the smile spread like ripples through Li Chengge's heart. He suddenly had the idea of hiding the person.
But Ye Zhen did not give him any chance. After explaining clearly, she went to Madam Chen and bowed to everyone. "Ye Zhen was not able to greet you in time, causing Madam to be exposed to the sun. This is an unforgivable sin."
"Please, Madam, for the sake of me making the pear blossom pastry myself, let me serve you and take a rest."
Mrs. Chen has always liked her. Seeing her approaching her and hooking her sleeves to apologize, which was more like acting like a spoiled child, she immediately smiled and said to the other ladies behind her, "This girl's cooking skills are good. Let's all go in and try some."
A serious crime against superiors was resolved invisibly, and the white jade teacup also gave them enough face. A group of people followed her into the back hall, talking and laughing.
Li Chengge and Zheng were ignored, and watched helplessly as everyone else tried to save Ye Zhen's face. They couldn't tell whether they felt disappointed or envious.
Zheng gritted her teeth and said, "She is waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves!"
"If they really wanted to help us, they wouldn't have let this thing into the mansion! When I asked Mrs. Lai to monitor the accounts, her people always reminded me that the quality of the goods was not good."
"Didn't her people stop him from entering the mansion with such a large screen?"
Li Chengge suddenly lost some strength, "She asked someone to remind Ye Xue, and also asked the housekeeper to inform me."
He felt a headache when he thought about what Ye Xue said last night.
Zheng was so full of swear words that she couldn't say anything. Finally, she rolled her eyes at Li Chengge and said, "How could you let Ye Xue buy something like this? She almost killed the entire mansion."
Li Chengge looked down and said, "Mother, go back and change your clothes."
Zheng herself felt uneasy, and seeing that those ladies only cared about Ye Zhen's face, she had no say here, so she might as well go back and live in peace!
At the same time, Li Xuan witnessed everything in Baoyue Tower. Lian Yunzhui was amazed, "The Second Miss is really amazing."
"The general will have plenty of time to regret later."
Li Xuan'an frowned slightly. Li Chengge stood in the yard, his eyes lingering on Ye Zhen's back for a long time. He had a bad feeling.
Yun Zhui felt that his aura was somewhat fluctuating, and thought that there was something unclean among the guests who came today, so he asked, "Second Master, do you want me to bring a few Taoist children to guard the mourning hall?"
Before Ye Rong died, she wanted to poison Ye Xue. Now that she has passed away, seeing Ye Xue pestering Li Chengge every day and causing such a thing on the day of her funeral, one can imagine how resentful she is.
Among the guests who come to pay their respects, anyone who is weak or sympathetic and pitiful towards her is very likely to be borrowed by her.
Li Xuan said, "Brother himself is not afraid of retribution, why should I worry about it?"
"Besides, I'm not a wizard who can catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits. Even if I am, my brother is such an unfaithful man. If there is anything wrong, he deserves it."
He looked very serious, "Understanding the Tao and following it, and respecting the Way of Heaven, is the ultimate meaning of practicing Taoism."
Yun Zhui bowed and saluted, "I will learn from you."
"But, but the second young lady is ill, and I'm afraid she is weak..."
Li Xuan did not shy away from saying, "She was wearing my tourmaline rosary, there would be no..."
Before he even uttered the word “thing”, his expression stiffened, and the calmness he had shown before suddenly disappeared.
Yun Zhui hadn't recovered from the fact that his master had given the rosary he had raised since childhood to the Second Miss. And because of his sudden change, his face was filled with the expression "The Second Miss is indeed the Second Master's outsider!"
The reason why Li Xuan'an looked uneasy was that Ye Zhen did not carry his rosary with her!
Of course, how could Ye Zhen openly show off the imperial master's things in front of others!
At this moment, Dong Yuan was pulling her to a shady place in the backyard and asking her all sorts of questions. She had no idea that she had made Li Xuan unhappy again.
Dong Yuan and Ye Zhen are the same age. It was she who was attracted by Ye Zhen's juggling on the street. After they met, she helped Ye Zhen find his father, and the wandering life of the three of them finally came to an end.
Perhaps it was for this reason that her stepmother recognized her and her younger brother.
However, Dong Yuan had always disagreed with her testing Li Chengge, and she had repeatedly said that she could help Ye Zhen solve her brother's medicinal material problem, but Ye Zhen didn't want to trouble her.
In the previous life, Prince Yu rebelled and the situation in the Great Zhou was initially settled. The Turks began to cause friction and trouble on the border, and the Great Zhou did not have the ability to fight. In the end, Dong Yuan married into the Turks, and Ye Zhen never heard from her again until her death.
Looking at the lively Dong Yuan in front of him, Ye Zhen was deeply moved and simply told him about Ye Xue and Li Chengge's advance plans.
Dong Yuan stamped her feet in anger, "I told you long ago that Li Chengge is not a good person. How dare he let you down like this! I asked my second sister to persuade His Majesty and take away his title."
"No! Send him to the border and never let him come back!"
Ye Zhen felt warm in her heart and couldn't help laughing, "Don't be angry. I am not so incapable of solving this problem. I was stupid before, but now I see his true colors, so I will no longer be his concubine."
Dong Yuan didn't expect that she had this awareness. No matter how he persuaded her in the past, she was determined to stay in the Marquis' Mansion for the rest of her life.
At this moment, he was extremely excited. "You finally got it. What are you going to do now?"
Ye Zhen didn't hide it from her, "I have already proposed to withdraw from him..."
"Ye Zhen!"
Li Chengge's voice suddenly came from behind her, and both of them trembled with fear.
When Li Chengge was in the front hall, Cai Ling and others praised Ye Zhen many times, but he felt uneasy when he thought of Ye Zhen. When he didn't see her in the back hall, the feeling became even stronger. He came all the way here and heard that she was planning to tell Dong Yuan about the breakup! His anger suddenly surged, and he was scared.
Seeing him walking towards her with big strides, Ye Zhen said unhappily, "General, if you have anything to say, just let the maid tell me. You don't have to come in person..."
Li Chengge grabbed her wrist angrily, not giving her a chance to struggle, "I have something to discuss with you, come with me."
Seeing him being so rude in front of her, Dong Yuan immediately stopped him with a stern voice, "Let go of Ah Zhen!"
Li Chengge seemed to have not heard anything. Ye Zhen was afraid that she would worry, so she turned back to comfort her, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon. If I'm not back in a cup of tea, send someone to look for me."
When Li Chengge heard the second half of her sentence, his eyes were filled with anger, and he strangled Ye Zhen with such force that Ye Zhen could not help but turn pale.
