Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time

The next day, twenty stamps and a bundle of coupons were delivered to various stores. Xiaomei and Li Yi went from store to store explaining how to use them.

After running for a whole day, the two finally completed the task. Xiaomei was so tired that she didn't want to speak and her face felt stiff.

Li Yi pointed to the wonton stand in front and said, "Let's have a bowl of wontons before we leave!"

"All right!"

Xiaomei sat down listlessly, and Li Yi ordered two bowls of wontons.

"Boss, please put more dried shrimp and seaweed."

"Ok."

The boss quickly brought out two bowls of steaming hot and fragrant wontons, and Li Yi asked Xiaomei to eat them quickly.

At this time, Xiaomei was attracted by the conversation between two old women at the next table. She turned around and saw Li Yi kicking her under the table. She turned around and continued eating wontons.

"Have you heard? After the Shangshu of the Li Mansion died, his wife went to a nunnery."

"I heard a little bit that some people say that his young mistress is very powerful and can't tolerate her mother-in-law. She took charge of the household affairs on the first day she came into the house."

"Her father is the Minister of War. She is no ordinary woman and is very scheming."

"No wonder her husband has other women outside. I heard there's more than one. One of them pretends to be Mr. Ren's daughter and is good friends with him."

The old woman sighed: "There were two women who were close to him, one died and the other disappeared. Don't you think it's strange?"

Another woman curled her lips and shook her head: "That's unacceptable. That young mistress has too much power behind her. The princess of the Seventh Prince's family is all her close friends."

The old woman said angrily, "That princess is so overbearing that she doesn't even allow the prince to have other women. It's really funny that she can let her know that a man has a woman outside. What's more, he is the Seventh Prince, and I heard that he is as handsome as a god."

Xiaomei couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to argue, but Li stopped her with a glance.

Xiaomei was so angry that she left ten cents and left.

Li Yi quickly drank the last mouthful of soup and chased after him.

"What's so worth worrying about this old woman's gossip?"

"But they are saying bad things about the princess."

Xiaomei glared at Li Yida and said, "You are the most heartless. The princess treats you so well, letting you marry a wife and manage the business. You earn more money than your brothers, but your attitude is really sad."

Li Yi held Xiaomei and said, "Just watch, I will seek justice for the princess."

Xiaomei saw him pick a leaf from a branch and throw it over. Then she heard a clang and the bowl in front of the old woman broke. The soup spilled all over the table and even got on the old woman's clothes. The old woman quickly moved away and shouted, "Boss, what kind of bowl is this?"

The shopkeeper took one look and said with a smile, "Sorry, I'll make you another bowl."

Xiaomei smiled, but she felt a little sympathy for the shopkeeper, as he shouldn't bear the loss.

Li Yi walked quickly over to the shopkeeper and stuffed ten coins into his hand: "I'll pay for it."

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood and said thank you several times.

"Are you happy?"

"Not very happy either."

Xiaomei went back and told the princess about it. Ye Youlan smiled and said, "Everyone talks behind others' backs, and everyone is talked about behind their backs."

"Princess, aren't you curious about where that Lancome went?"

Ye Youlan raised her eyebrows: "Do you think I am someone who has the time to be curious about these things?"

Xiaomei looked at the design drafts made by the princess and said with a smile, "You are busy, you are busy."

Ye Youlan looked up at the opposite side. As for where Lancome had gone, she just needed to ask the Seventh Prince. He should be able to find out, but what was the point of knowing this?

Someone came from the palace and said that the queen wanted to see the princess and talk in the palace.

Ye Youlan went to prepare, and the Seventh Prince accompanied her. She felt much more at ease. To be honest, based on her previous experience of reading books and watching TV dramas, there would be no good things in entering the palace, and there would be trouble again.

The Seventh Prince saw Ye Youlan taking a moment to adjust her breathing and said, "You weren't nervous about meeting the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, so why are you so concerned about meeting the Empress?"

Ye Youlan held the Seventh Prince's hand. His hands were so beautiful, with distinct joints, slender and white, warm and powerful.

"I have a bad feeling that the Queen is not simple." Ye Youlan remembered that there was not much description of the Queen in the book, but that didn't mean she didn't have a sense of existence. "Tell me about the Queen. If I remember correctly, she should also be a girl from the Ren family."

The Seventh Prince nodded. "The Empress' maiden name is Ren Yunxiu. She is the daughter of Ren Qishan's half-brother, Ren Qifeng. Ren Qifeng is the governor of the Chudong region. He has always kept a low profile, but he has been cultivating his own power in the Chudong region, so he cannot be ignored. This is also the reason why Ren Qishan has a strong backer and the Emperor is wary of him."

Ye Youlan understood: "That's why the Emperor won't let the Empress have her own children. The Crown Prince was born to another concubine, and his biological mother might no longer be around. He wants to stop the Ren family from wanting to continue to control the government."

Ye Youlan looked at the Seventh Prince and said, "The royal family is truly cruel. Everything is calculated. The word 'love' is too extravagant. You should thank me for helping you avoid a dispute. Otherwise, your princess's family would be one force, and your two concubines would be two forces. Fighting openly and secretly, you wouldn't be able to live the carefree life you do now."

The Seventh Prince's eyes were as dark as lacquer. He smiled and said, "Thank you. Of course, there's something I'm saying now that might seem hypocritical to you, but if I hadn't married you, I wouldn't have planned to marry anyone else."

Ye Youlan beamed with joy: "I know that if you wanted to marry me, you wouldn't wait until you were twenty-five. If you didn't marry me, you would end up alone for the rest of your life. That's why even God couldn't bear to see you like that and sent me to be with you."

The Seventh Prince laughed dumbly: "I am very grateful that you came to see me on that rainy night. If you hadn't come, we might never have met."

Ye Youlan's eyes sparkled, and she said proudly, "That's why I'm braver than you."

The two entered the palace, and the Seventh Prince went to see the Emperor. He told Ye Youlan not to worry, and that he would bring the Emperor to the rescue in an incense stick of time at most.

Ye Youlan came to the Queen's palace and saw that the Queen's face was pale, and the little bit of lip balm on her lips looked particularly abrupt.

The Queen told Youlan not to bow and to sit down quickly.

Ye Youlan sat down and looked at the queen with a smile. She did not ask why she was invited. She was waiting for the queen to tell her.

The queen held Ye Youlan's hand, and Ye Youlan found that her hands were very thin and bony, which made them feel a little tight.

"Today we are talking as sisters-in-law. I want you to do me a favor?"

"Please tell me, sister-in-law. If I can help, I will definitely not refuse."

"Can you go to Xiangguo Temple and pray for me? Please hang this on the big tree next to the big bell in the temple." The queen stuffed a blessing plaque into Ye Youlan's hand.

Ye Youlan took a look and saw that the red blessing card only had the words "health and safety" written on it.

"No, you can definitely ask someone in the palace to do this for the Imperial Sister-in-law."

The Queen looked troubled. "Because I heard that when asking someone for help in praying for blessings, you must find someone with good luck, so that you can also share some good luck. My sister's family is still alive and well, and they are harmonious and friendly. The prince also treats my sister with great love, which is enviable. My sister is also healthy and has a rosy complexion. She looks like a blessed person. But I am really worried whether I can live to the end of the year."
