Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time
Chapter 240 Preparing to Leave for the Fiefdom
As soon as the princess returned, the palace became lively again.
General Liu's clan was executed, and except for Ren Qicheng's family who escaped by chance, all other members of Ren Qishan's clan were executed. The empress dowager did not have to move to the cold palace. The emperor, considering their mother-son relationship, would not treat her differently and let her die of old age in her own palace!
Not to mention those who stood on the wrong side and were exiled, demoted, beheaded, or had their property confiscated.
There are rewards for every punishment, and those who support the emperor received different rewards.
This time, the Seventh Prince still refused. He proposed to take Ye Youlan and the child to the fiefdom.
The emperor was puzzled: "I used to be wary of you, but now I trust you completely. Why are you leaving?"
The Seventh Prince told the Emperor, "I'm leaving not because I'm afraid of you, but because I want to make the Great Chu Kingdom stronger. The Northern Desert has always been a treacherous place. Although my fiefdom is poor, it serves as a barrier to protect the northern part of Chu. I'm going there to protect the Great Chu Kingdom from the enemy. You're working hard in the capital to make the Great Chu Kingdom prosperous and the people live and work in peace. I believe you can do it and even better."
"Then I order you to return to the capital and live there for a while every three years."
"Okay, I promise you."
"when are we leaving?"
"It will probably be half a year later, after drinking the full moon wine for Li Chuang and Zhang Liang's child."
Mrs. Ye had just recovered from the joy of Youlan's resurrection. When she heard that her daughter and her family were going to the fiefdom, which was so remote and the environment was so poor, she felt sorry for her daughter.
"Master, can you persuade your son-in-law and Youlan to stay in the capital?"
Prime Minister Ye understood the Seventh Prince's choice. He comforted his wife: "They can come back once every three years. It's not like they won't come back."
After hearing about it, Chen Xiaoling came uninvited and asked Ye Youlan why she wanted to leave?
Ye Youlan smiled: "I want to do something big, to turn the barren mountains and wilderness into green waters and lush mountains, and to make this bitter cold land a paradise on earth."
"What you said makes me a little moved."
"You'd better stay. Your parents and your husband's family both need you."
"I have a younger brother who can support the Chen family when he grows up. I have to persuade my mother-in-law to give birth quickly so that Chen Su and I can take the child with us to help you benefit the people. Chen Su is the Minister of Works and can play a big role there."
"Okay, the prince and I will go first."
Ye Youlan took the time to have a serious talk with Xiaomei. She hoped that Xiaomei and Li Yi would stay in the capital to protect the prince and Rongji's business. Although the names of some shop owners had changed, the largest shareholder of the shops was still the prince's palace.
"Xiaomei, you and Li Yi have a heavy responsibility. Not only do you have to look after the palace, but you also have to help me take care of the Prime Minister's Mansion and manage Rongji's business in the capital. The prince and I come back once every three years to check on the work."
Xiaomei pouted: "Princess, I want to go with you."
"No, I don't trust others with such a big business like the capital. Do you understand?"
"Okay, I'll take care of everything, you can go without worry!"
"In the next six months, I will help you train more people who can do things."
Xiaomei suddenly remembered something: "Xiaohong, the maidservant next to Miss Qin, fell into the water and died."
"What a pity. Such a beautiful girl is gone just like that."
Ye Youlan said this, and then she remembered that she hadn't seen Qin Yurou for a while. Last time, Li Zong was smart enough not to choose the wrong side, and he received the emperor's praise, which was very glorious.
The news that he was going to the fiefdom should have spread throughout the capital, but Qin Yurou didn't send anyone over to show concern. This didn't fit Qin Yurou's character. Although she was very stubborn, she still cared about etiquette.
She had to ask the Seventh Prince.
The Seventh Prince has been busy outside recently and comes back very late at night. Ye Youlan waited until he finished taking a bath before asking him what news there was from the Li Mansion recently?
The Seventh Prince slapped his head and said, "It's all my fault. I originally wanted to find an informant to enter the Li Mansion, but later I felt that there was no value, so I didn't arrange it anymore. Whatever the princess wants to know, I will send someone to inquire."
"Help me find out what Qin Yurou has been doing recently? I don't think I've seen her since her father left the capital. I'm a little worried."
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
The Seventh Prince went to the door and asked the secret guard to run to the Li Mansion, instructing him to wait until tomorrow to report any news he heard. He didn't want to be disturbed when he was doing good things.
The Seventh Prince walked into the inner room and saw Ye Youlan lying on the bed still flipping through the account book. He took it and threw it aside: "Don't read these at night, it hurts your eyes."
"Time is tight and the workload is heavy. There's a lot to do in six months. I wish I could live one day like two."
The Seventh Prince asked aggrievedly, "Can the time in bed be doubled?"
"No."
But her words were useless, someone didn't give her a chance to speak. Because they were too busy recently, the two of them hadn't been so affectionate for a long time.
In the morning, the Seventh Prince nudged Ye Youlan: "Didn't you say you had a lot of things to do?"
Ye Youlan snuggled into his arms, mumbling, "I'm sleepy."
The Seventh Prince was held in her arms and unable to get up, so he asked the secret guard to come in and talk to him through the tent.
The secret guard dared not go inside, so he said outside the inner room, "Miss Qin seems to be ill. Concubine Lan of the Li Mansion gave birth to a girl five days ago. Miss Qin's personal maid Xiaohong fell into the water and died not long ago. It seems that a servant in the mansion named Xiaobao wanted to marry her, but she refused. She fell into the water while walking by the lake at night and died. The maid who replaced her was called Chunni, and she is now Li Zong's concubine."
After the secret guard finished speaking, Ye Youlan lost all sleepiness. Out of resentment, she couldn't help but dig her fingers into the Seventh Prince's flesh. Only when the Seventh Prince said it hurt did she let go, repeatedly saying sorry.
Ye Youlan stood up and put on her clothes. She scolded Li Zong, "Shameless, pervert. I'll make sure he dies a miserable death before I leave."
"Then Qin Yurou will become a widow."
Ye Youlan looked at the Seventh Prince helplessly like a deflated ball: "What do you say we should do?"
"Let's see Qin Yurou's attitude first before making a decision. They are husband and wife, and they quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed."
"But I don't want to go to the Li Mansion. I think it's dirty there."
"Let Xiaomei go over with some supplements."
Xiaomei came back from Li's house an hour later, her face flushed with anger.
Ye Youlan asked her to drink some water and speak slowly.
The Seventh Prince looked at her and said, "Go ahead."
"Miss Qin is sick and looks terrible. Li Zong took leave to stay home and take care of her. He fed her medicine right in front of me, but when he put down the medicine bowl, I saw a look of disgust on his face. He even flirted with that girl Chunni, thinking I didn't know! I wanted to talk to Miss Qin alone, but they wouldn't leave. It pissed me off."
"Forget it, I'll ask Xiaoling to go to Qin Yurou's house together tomorrow." Ye Youlan made up her mind.
"I'll have the secret guards follow."
The next morning, Chen Xiaoling arrived at the palace in a carriage, and then took the same carriage with Ye Youlan to the Li residence. The gatekeeper said that the lady was not feeling well and could not receive guests.
