Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time

Chapter 101: Send one away and another comes

The two of them fled back to the room and laughed.

"Now your prince has lost all his dignity. You won't fire that secret guard, will you?"

The Seventh Prince said, "No."

"It's a pity I didn't hear anything."

The Seventh Prince carried Ye Youlan to the bed and said, "The moon is beautiful today. It's a beautiful day. We can't waste it."

The next day, Ye Youlan woke up and saw Xiaomei coming to serve her with a blushing face. Her curiosity was piqued, and she quickly got up and asked Xiaomei to tell her how she felt last night. Was there enough hot water?

Xiaomei hesitated and said, "It's not interesting at all."

"why?"

"He wasn't paying attention at all. He kept pricking up his ears and saying there was noise outside. He got up several times to check, which made me so angry that I kicked him off the bed. But he said he wasn't used to sleeping in a bed and was more used to sleeping in a cat tree or on the roof. Oh my God, am I going to have my wedding night with him on the roof? I'm speechless."

Ye Youlan suppressed her laughter and asked her whether she had a bridal chamber.

"Because of his good looks, I finally gave in and pulled him back to bed. Now he's probably catching up on some tree!"

Ye Youlan couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into laughter. The sound of her laughter spread through the house and even to the yard outside. The Seventh Prince was practicing sword and was distracted by her laughter.

On the seventh prince's birthday, someone came from the palace and said that the Queen Mother invited them to the palace to celebrate her birthday.

Ye Youlan asked the Seventh Prince curiously, "How does the Queen Mother celebrate your birthday every year?"

The Seventh Prince frowned slightly and said, "Just have a meal together and then get the gifts."

"Then let's go to the palace for dinner first, and I'll celebrate your birthday when we get back in the evening."

Both of them wore new clothes and entered the palace in their best attire.

There were many concubines paying their respects to the Queen Mother. When they heard that the Seventh Prince and the Princess had entered the palace, they did not leave, saying that they wanted to join in the fun. The women in the palace were just too lonely.

The Queen Mother didn't say anything, which was considered as her tacit consent.

Ye Youlan came in to pay her respects to the Queen Mother, and then, under the introduction of the Seventh Prince, she greeted each of the concubines one by one. She returned to her seat, a smile on her face.

The Queen Mother asked the Seventh Prince to go to the next room to rest for a while, as the room was full of women and it was inconvenient for him to talk.

Ye Youlan gave the Seventh Prince a reassuring look, and then the Seventh Prince left.

One concubine said enviously, "The prince and princess have such a good relationship."

Ye Youlan said modestly: "It's just average, third in the country."

Is anyone curious about who came first and second?

"The first is of course the late emperor and the empress dowager. Otherwise, how could they have given birth to such an outstanding emperor and prince?"

"What about number two?"

"The second should be the Emperor and all the sisters-in-law. I see you all have rosy complexions. The Emperor must treat everyone equally, which is why the harem is so harmonious."

The concubines were a little embarrassed, and the smiles on their faces froze, not knowing whether to continue or retract them.

The empress dowager smiled. She and the late emperor were indeed very affectionate in the past, but since the birth of their second child, the late emperor had not been the same to her as before.

The Queen Mother changed the subject and asked about the flower viewing festival a few days ago, and asked Ye Youlan to talk about it.

So Ye Youlan opened up and described the excitement of the flower viewing festival in vivid detail. The concubines were very eager to hear it, but it was a pity that they had no chance to participate.

"There's no one in the Ye family who knows how to do business. Where did you learn all this?"

"I've been interested in eating, drinking, and having fun since I was a kid, so I'm very familiar with all the shops in the capital, big and small. I've also gotten a glimpse into the business practices of the shopkeepers, and over time, that's become my own experience."

"I heard that Rongji's purses, sachets, and jewelry are selling well. I guess the princess is making a lot of money, right?"

"Rongji is the palace's business. I just follow it to earn some pocket money."

"I used to worry about the relationship between the prince and the princess, but now it seems that you two are really a perfect match."

Ye Youlan smiled: "We used to dislike each other, but now it seems like the melon has been forced to become sweet."

Everyone was amused by her vivid and interesting metaphor. Ye Youlan is really an interesting person.

At this time, a palace maid came in and whispered something. The empress dowager smiled calmly, then signaled all the concubines to go back first!

What did Ye Youlan think? If everyone left, wouldn't the prince have fewer birthday gifts?

The concubines left tactfully, leaving only the empress dowager and Ye Youlan in the room.

"Today is Ke'er's birthday. We can't let them make noise here."

Did Ye Youlan think they were noisy? Who could be noisier than herself? If anyone was, it would be Chen Xiaoling.

Ye Youlan followed the Queen Mother to the dining hall. The Emperor and the Seventh Prince were there. Ye Youlan discovered that there was another woman there. Judging from the style of her clothes, she seemed not to be the Queen. She wondered and looked at the Seventh Prince. Seeing that he looked peaceful, she felt relieved.

"This is Ren Yue, my niece. When she was little, she often came to the palace to accompany me. She is very familiar with the emperor and Ke'er. It's such a coincidence that Ke'er's birthday happened right after she entered the palace, so she decided to stay and celebrate it together."

So everyone took their seats, the Queen Mother and the Emperor sat at the top, with the Seventh Prince on their right. Ye Youlan walked towards the Seventh Prince as usual, but Ren Yue actually sat down. Ye Youlan was stunned for a moment, then sat opposite, with the Emperor above her.

The Seventh Prince stood up, and Ye Youlan smiled: "Just sit there! We are all family."

The Queen Mother laughed, "Youlan is right. We are all family. When you were little, Ke'er, you often ran around after Ren Yue and even said you wanted to marry her when you grew up! Have you forgotten all that?"

Ye Youlan looked at the Seventh Prince with a smile. The Seventh Prince looked helpless, and the Emperor was laughing beside him.

"Aunt, that was a long time ago. I'm married now, and the prince is married too. Let's not talk about the past."

The Queen Mother still had a smile on her face: "Didn't I tell you that we are all family? Besides, your husband has been dead for three years, so you might as well consider remarrying."

Ye Youlan cursed the Queen Mother a hundred and eight times in her heart, saying that she had bad intentions. She sent away one niece and now another one came, and she was a widow. In her heart, was the prince so bad?

"Sister is such a kindhearted person. She remained faithful to her husband for three years after he died. If it were someone else, they would have found a new husband before he was even buried."

Ren Yue raised her almond-shaped eyes and looked at Ye Youlan in confusion: "Is there such a woman in the world?"

"Yes, Pan Jinlian."

"Who is Pan Jinlian?"

"A woman with a very bad reputation, let's not talk about her. What kind of man are you looking for, sister? My prince knows many young talents and can introduce one to you."

Ren Yue blushed: "How can I say such a thing?"

The Queen Mother coughed lightly and said, "Today is Ke'er's birthday. Let's eat first."

The palace maids served the dishes one after another, and soon the table was filled with delicious food.

Ren Yue picked up some food for the Seventh Prince: "This is your favorite stir-fried wild rice stem."

Ye Youlan smiled: "Sister, tell me, what does my prince like to eat? I still don't know."
