Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time

"Youlan, please listen to my explanation."

"No, I believe you. I want to eat mutton now. You won't stop me from eating it, right?"

"No, I can eat now. I'll eat with you."

"Don't explain. The Queen Mother's plan is just that. Send women to the palace. This time, it's buy one, get one free. Even a son is prepared for you."

"Then do you know why she did this?"

Ye Youlan said proudly, "It's related to that imperial decree. If there's another woman in the palace, you'll be demoted to a commoner and all your wealth will be confiscated. She's such a vicious woman. She seems to care about you, but she's actually disgusting."

"I'll have Li Zhi investigate Liu E's background. We should have some clues soon."

Ye Youlan stared at the Seventh Prince with a smile on her face: "If I didn't trust you, I would really suspect that it was your child. They look so much like each other."

"In fact, the emperor's seven sons all look quite similar."

Madam Ye and Yuhua did not attend the banquet hosted by the Empress Dowager, and they did not care about it at first. Later, after learning that the Empress Dowager had caused such a scene at the banquet, the Ye family finally realized that the Empress Dowager's Hongmen Banquet was aimed at Youlan, so she sent invitations to the wives of the fifth-rank officials in the capital and deliberately ignored the Ye family.

Madam Ye asked the Prime Minister if the child really looked like her son-in-law?

"Like the late emperor."

"The late emperor has been dead for ten years. How is this possible?"

"The late emperor had seven sons who all looked alike, understand? Why are you still blaming your own family for the mess?"

"Yes, yes, I believe Youlan."

There are many versions of the story about the Seventh Prince's son who inexplicably appeared, and the stories become more and more mysterious as they spread. Ye Youlan asked the Seventh Prince to clarify the matter in the Beijing Evening News: the overbearing prince was inexplicably blamed, and the clever princess cleverly solved the problem.

As soon as the Beijing Evening News came out, the rumors were quickly put to rest. Ye Youlan, not one to be taken advantage of, immediately wrote a joke and gave it to the teahouse owner, asking the storyteller to embellish it and tell it as he pleased.

So the drama of the cat replacing the prince was performed by a storyteller in a teahouse and immediately became the biggest topic of conversation on the streets.

The Queen Mother was so angry that she sent people to destroy the teahouse, forgetting whose property it was. The Seventh Prince quickly traced the clues from these people to the Queen Mother.

The Seventh Prince went to the palace to meet the Queen Mother. No one knew what he said to the Queen Mother. All we heard was that the Queen Mother fell ill after the Seventh Prince left.

The capital seemed to calm down all of a sudden, and everyone felt that this calmness was rare and strange.

Ye Youlan received news that Jingnan Kingdom's second prince Jingwu had successfully seized power and the business could continue, but Jingwu demanded a 70:30 profit split. Ye Youlan agreed. After all, Jingwu had ascended the throne and branches could be opened all over Jingnan Kingdom.

However, this time, all the goods she delivered were sent from the shops in the fiefdom. The distance was shorter and the profit was greater. She could also take the opportunity to develop and expand the business in the fiefdom.

Qin Yurou had recently been concentrating on making friends with noble ladies. Although she'd been tired at the summer garden party at the farmhouse, she'd still made a small profit. She was now confident and wanted to continue using her business to entice those noble ladies. So, after hearing that the situation in Jingnan had stabilized, she didn't rush to contact Rongji. When her subordinates reported that Rongji was no longer doing business in Jingnan, she stopped worrying and focused on what she wanted to do.

When the ladies were chatting together, some of them would ask her about the Princess of Yong'an and the Seventh Princess, wanting to make friends with them, while others would think about how to make money and what kind of store to invest in to be profitable.

After spending a long time together, the women became very familiar with each other and no longer restrained their words. Some ladies scolded their husbands as old perverts and said that they slept with the maids in the mansion. They would talk about such things without hesitation. Other ladies would share their own experiences and teach her how to fight those women who wanted to get to the top.

One lady envied him: "Look at the Seventh Prince, he is powerful, handsome and loyal."

Qin Yurou said lightly: "Men are like that. Being loyal at this time does not mean being loyal forever."

"Yes, a man who is too outstanding will have many women who will come to him. Once he has sex with her once, he will become addicted and will do it countless times."

Qin Yurou's expression was calm: "Men are like this, if it happens once, there will be countless times."

The ladies exchanged glances with each other, because they knew that there was a concubine in the Li Mansion, but they knew it but did not say anything. What was the point of laughing at others when there were a bunch of women in their own backyard.

At this time, Xiaohong came over and whispered something in Qin Yurou's ear. Qin Yurou's face changed, and she left in a hurry without even saying a word of courtesy.

"What's wrong with her? Has something happened to her family?"

"Look, she's turned pale."

Qin Yurou went straight to her parents' home after leaving Qingfeng Teahouse, and Xiaohong shouted at her to slow down from behind.

There were many people surrounding the Qin Mansion, and the door was heavily guarded by soldiers. Qin Yurou was stopped outside the door when she tried to go in. She was so anxious that she was running around in circles. Xiaohong came over to support her, fearing that she would faint from anxiety.

The things in the Qin Mansion were carried out box by box by officers and soldiers. The last person to be escorted out was the lady of the mansion. Qin Yurou went over, pulled her arm and asked what was going on?

Mrs. Qin didn't dare to look at her and was pushed forward by the officers and soldiers behind her. Qin Yurou looked towards the Qin Mansion. It was not until the door was finally closed and sealed that she seemed to realize that something had happened.

Master Qin Wu drove over in a carriage, and Xiaohong helped her get on the carriage and returned to the Li Mansion.

Qin Yurou recovered and called Qin Wuye to ask her father what was going on.

Master Qin Wu's face was filled with anger. He angrily said, "It's all Madam Qin's fault. After she became the legitimate wife, she associated with some ladies and took advantage of them. Now they're in trouble, and Master is also in trouble. Now Master is in prison for investigation. Young lady, you have to ask your son-in-law to help smooth things over. Master is old, how can he withstand the torture?"

Qin Yurou's eyes were blank, tears streaming down her face. She told Master Qin Wu to quickly go to the palace to fetch her husband: "Tell my husband that no matter how much it costs, he must protect my father from harm."

Something happened in the Qin Mansion, and everyone soon knew about it.

The Prime Minister, the Grand Tutor and others went to the Emperor to plead for Minister Qin.

The emperor is angry and won't see anyone.

The prime minister and others came out and saw Li Zong and three or five other people gathered together to discuss something.

"You said Lao Qin lost his position. Who is most likely to take over that position?"

The Grand Tutor also noticed those people and was startled: "Are you suspicious?"

The Prime Minister nodded. "You can only know a person's face, not his heart. Old Qin is in trouble, and Lord Luo is the most likely successor. Lord Luo used to have a good relationship with Li Da, and they are birds of a feather. When his father-in-law is in trouble, his good son-in-law is chatting and laughing with Lord Luo. Don't you find it strange?"

"This frame-up method is similar to the last time I investigated your house. It seems you inherited it from me."

"The emperor is very suspicious. Let's talk to Lao Chen and the others. We can't let Lao Qin die in prison before the truth comes out."
