Spring Courtyard Forbidden Pet

Ye Yunsheng is back!

The servants said that the master was carried back to his room by two servants. He looked exhausted and as if he had fainted.

Ye Zhen waited for half an hour, and estimated that Cui had washed and cleaned up Ye Yunsheng before going to Cui's courtyard with the ginseng soup.

Ye Yunsheng felt like he had finally come back to his senses after being comforted by Cui. When he heard that Ye Zhen was coming, his face immediately fell.

Cui guessed the reason why he was kept in the palace. Just then, Wang Ma opened the curtain and Ye Zhen walked in.

Cui said coldly, "If the palace continues to embarrass the master, he may not be able to come back in one piece next time."

Ye Yunsheng was timid to begin with, and shuddered when he heard this, "Do you dare to do it again?"

"This matter must be resolved. His Majesty is only giving us a warning now. If we remain indifferent, are we forcing His Majesty to take action?"

"I have seen how much hard work you have put in to get to this position. After all, she is your daughter. I have no right to force you to do anything. You can make the decision yourself, Master."

Cui threw Ye Yunsheng's changed clothes to the servants and sat aside in a huff.

Ye Yunsheng had a severe headache. When he looked up and saw Ye Zhen, a fierce light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Ye Zhen bowed and said, "I made a bowl of ginseng soup for father. Thank you for your help."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Yunsheng slapped the table and said, "It is better to suffer than to die."

He was about to burst out with all the grievance and anger, but he held back the words.

His Majesty can't afford to offend him, and he doesn't dare to offend the Imperial Master either.

After a pause, he said, "You saved the Imperial Master, and the Ye family received rewards from His Majesty because of you, but it also caused a lot of criticism."

"Your reputation has been damaged by breaking off the engagement with the Marquis' Mansion, and now you have stayed in Baiyun Temple with the Imperial Master for a few days. Although you are recovering from your injuries, you are afraid of what people say."

"Your Majesty loves and respects the Imperial Master, and it is destined that the Imperial Master cannot get close to any courtiers or princes. At the Spring Festival Banquet, Fang Jing framed you, and it was the Imperial Master who stood up for you. Later, Feng Ting assassinated the Imperial Master to avenge Fang Jing... You are responsible for everything."

The more Ye Yunsheng spoke, the more he lost control of his temper, and his rage kept rising to his head.

"If it weren't for the fact that Minister Fang was exposed for reselling disaster relief grains and angered His Majesty, do you think His Majesty would have allowed the Imperial Master to continue to be talked about because of you?"

Ye Yunsheng was telling the truth.

But one thing is that Ye Zhen arranged for someone to expose the matter of disaster relief grain in order to help Li Xuan'an out of trouble. She was not sure whether Li Xuan'an was kept in the palace because of her, but since Ye Yunsheng hadn't returned, it was almost certain.

Ye Zhen was calm in the face of the accusation, "My father taught me a lesson, but what you said is beyond my control."

"I have been tolerant of Fang Jing in every way. She was the one who refused to forgive me. I was willing to let her vent her anger. I didn't know that the Imperial Master would appear."

"It was a coincidence that I met the Imperial Master in the suburbs. I was unconscious at the time, and the Imperial Master went to the nearby Baiyun Temple to save my life."

"Shut up!" Ye Yunsheng was angry to begin with. Seeing her refusing to admit her mistakes and being aggressive, he raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "Didn't you deliberately wait on the official road to ask about the state master's marriage?"

Ask about marriage?

Ye Zhen didn't know that this was Li Xuan's explanation and was stunned for a moment.

Ye Yunsheng didn't even think about it, "You're still pretending!"

"Listen to me today and don't have any thoughts about the Imperial Master."

"Let Madam find a suitable family to arrange a marriage for you in the next one or two days, so that you won't get into trouble again."

After returning from Cui's house, Ye Zhen could still hear her father nagging. Even though she knew that he was cold and indifferent and didn't expect him to protect her, these complaints were really uncomfortable to hear.

Ye Yunsheng was full of impatience, "I said she took after her mother. Her mother was scheming and threatened to kill herself to force me. She has been following Rong'er for so many years and she is not really honest!"

"And Jing Lan, who was raised by her mother and has a weird temperament, won't get close to you and me. Humph, I will be destroyed by the hands of those three mothers sooner or later!"

The spring night was actually very warm, but Ye Zhen felt cold in her heart.

Back in the house, Liuxia was even more anxious and sad than Ye Zhen.

Yu Lu said in a trembling voice, "Let my brother take the second young lady and run away!"

"The Second Miss can't marry just anyone."

When she said this, Liuxia also thought it was an idea, and the two of them hit it off and prepared to pack their bags and flee overnight.

Ye Zhen laughed, "Why do you think the family Madam found for me is not good? What if it is more noble than the Marquis' Mansion? I will lose out if I leave."

Liuxia knew she was joking, but Yulu took it seriously and said seriously, "Second Miss. Madam hoped that you would fulfill the eldest miss's last wish. Now, it's not possible. She is not happy. How can she find a better family for you?"

Ye Zhen looked at Yu Lu carefully. This little girl had curved eyes and two dimples which made her look childish, but her mind was as clear as her older brother Rong Fei.

In her previous life, she married into the Marquis' Mansion and thought Yu Lu was too young to bring her along. Unexpectedly, she was underestimated.

Ye Zhen asked, "If I leave, what will happen to Jing Lan?"

Liuxia and Yulu stopped what they were doing and looked at each other. Yes, how could they forget about the young master?

The young master has a disability, so they can't run far. Even if they succeed, where can they buy medicine for the young master if they hide in the countryside?

At this moment, Xiaonian came in and said, "Second Miss, the Imperial Master has returned to the Marquis' Mansion!"

Ye Zhen was shocked, and then he continued, "Princess Pingyang sent him out of the palace. I didn't have the chance to get too close. I only heard the Imperial Master cough a few times on the way."

Ye Zhen couldn't help but think of his pale face when he sent her back. Even so, he still teased her when they were in the sedan chair.

This guy.

"Liuxia, please make some date cakes tomorrow..." She felt troubled as soon as she opened her mouth. If she directly sent a letter to the Marquis' Mansion, it would not be appropriate under the current circumstances.

And Ye Yunsheng would not let himself meet Li Xuan.

Ye Zhen rubbed his brows, unable to think of a good idea for a moment.

Ye Jinglan said outside the door, "Give a note to Taoist Master Yu Chenzi and tell him that my feet are uncomfortable and ask him to come and see me."

"Or it would be best to wait for the Taoist boy to come the day after tomorrow and ask him to help deliver the message."

Ye Zhen's eyes lit up, she put down the teacup and went to push the wooden chair herself, "Why is my brother here?"

The wooden chair was not light, so she had to push it from behind and Yuanbao had to carry it from the front to get through the door. Every time this happened, Ye Jinglan felt very useless, but he didn't want Ye Zhen to worry, so he quietly hid that emotion.

"I heard that my father asked her to arrange a marriage for my elder sister."

Ye Zhen smiled and said, "It's okay. Sister has a way to deal with it. Don't worry."

The phrase Ye Jinglan heard most from childhood to adulthood was that she had a way. When he was young, he was stupid and believed it. But now he is not a child anymore. How can his sister have a way to solve everything? It is all with her flesh and blood that he can live a life of luxury in the Ye Mansion.

"I've also heard the gossip outside." Ye Jinglan held Ye Zhen's hand tightly, his handsome face full of worry, "Father wants to report to the palace, how can I refuse?"

Ye Zhen couldn't refute, "No hurry, let's see what kind of people Madam has found."

Everyone has weaknesses, and weaknesses are easy to exploit, either for fame or gain.

Ye Zhen didn't want her brother to worry, and was even more afraid that he would blame himself and drag her down, so she hurriedly changed the subject and talked about Li Xuan again.

Ye Jinglan's face was brighter than ever before, "The Imperial Master said that I have a chance to attain enlightenment, and he will come to see me when he is free."

Ye Zhen's brows twitched slightly, "Did the Imperial Master really say that?"

"Of course. The Imperial Master is really kind. When he sent my sister back that day, he even took the time to check my pulse. He joked that if his Taoist boy's kung fu wasn't good enough, he would go back to the mountains to retreat."

Ye Zhen hadn't heard him mention anyone else for a long time, yet he still looked so vivid. She felt deeply moved and couldn't help wanting to see Li Xuan even more.
