Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time
Chapter 41 The Prince Wants to Choose a Concubine
The Seventh Prince stroked Ye Youlan's delicate and smooth face and said, "I'm thinking about how to deal with the matchmaker who might come knocking on my door next time."
Ye Youlan smiled and said, "How about you throw the embroidery ball? Stand on the city wall, look at the pretty girls below, and throw the embroidery ball to whoever you like?"
"Be serious."
"Just keep pretending to be sick."
"What do you mean?"
"Have all the matchmakers come, and have the servants spread the word that you've been injured in your vital organs and can't have sex."
The Seventh Prince's smile faded and he stared at Ye Youlan: "Do you doubt me?"
Ye Youlan blushed: "Be serious."
The Seventh Prince knew what Ye Youlan meant, but seeing her blushing with embarrassment, he was still very happy: "What if this gets to the Prime Minister's Mansion, then wouldn't it be even more difficult for me to marry you?"
"Let's pass it one level at a time!"
Li Zhi stood outside the door and reminded the prince that it was time to take his medicine.
The Seventh Prince frowned slightly. Ye Youlan went outside and brought in the medicine for him to drink.
"too bitter."
"drink."
The Seventh Prince took it and drank it all in one gulp. Ye Youlan wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and kissed him.
"Is it still bitter?"
"bitter."
The Seventh Prince put his arm around Ye Youlan's waist, holding her in his arms. He pressed her head with his other hand, locking his lips with hers affectionately and domineeringly. He pried open her lips with the tip of his tongue, wrapped it around her tongue, and entangled with her wildly, confused and happy.
Ye Youlan struggled to get up and hurriedly fixed her hair.
"I have to go back." Ye Youlan's face turned red, and she didn't dare to look at the Seventh Prince.
The Seventh Prince was feeling hot and restless. He said with a guilty conscience, "Let Li Yi take you back."
Xiaomei sat across from the young lady. Seeing her blushing, affectionate eyes, and covering her face, Xiaomei asked curiously, "Are you acting strange today?"
Ye Youlan covered it up: "How could I have that?"
"You used to be so excited to see the Seventh Prince and would even joke with me, but you're acting weird today. Did the Seventh Prince bully you?"
Ye Youlan tried to calm down and glared at Xiaomei: "He's already injured, how could he bully me? Can you use your brain when you speak?"
Xiaomei wanted to ask more, but Ye Youlan stopped her.
She was shocked today. A desire suddenly rose from her heart and spread to her entire body. She knew that it was the desire that was aroused by the kiss of the Seventh Prince. She lay on top of him and clearly felt the changes in his body, which made her very flustered.
Although she was a modern person and had only talked about it before, she was still very panicked when she really felt it. After all, she still had to consider the dignity of the ancients, so she could only choose to escape.
The Seventh Prince was savoring the passionate kiss just now, feeling a little unsatisfied.
He called Li Zhi in and said he wanted to go to the palace to see the emperor.
"My Lord, your injury hasn't healed yet?"
"I can not wait anymore."
The atmosphere in the Imperial Palace's study was oppressive. A disagreement arose over how to reward the Seventh Prince. The Prime Minister and the Imperial Tutor both believed in rewarding according to merit. The Seventh Prince had spent two years painstakingly planning and strategizing, resolving a potential threat to the court. If he hadn't been rewarded for his military exploits two years prior, it would be unconscionable not to reward him two years later.
Minister Li and others firmly opposed it. The truth of the Liangcheng ambush two years ago has not been revealed yet. The Seventh Prince has indeed uncovered the truth of some things during his two years in brothels and mansions, but who can guarantee that he is not directing and acting in it himself?
The Prime Minister looked at Li Da with disdain. "You are judging others by your own standards. Many of the officials implicated in this investigation into corruption and bribery are close to you. I hope the Dali Temple will conduct a thorough investigation of you."
The emperor was very annoyed and asked them to stop arguing.
The palace maid came in to report that the Seventh Prince had entered the palace and was waiting to be summoned by the Emperor.
The emperor asked them to leave and invited the Seventh Prince in.
When the Prime Minister came out, he warned Li Shangshu: "You have set up a trap to frame me twice in Full Moon Tower, and once investigated my Prime Minister's Mansion. I will settle all these new and old accounts with you. You'd better hide your fox tail well."
Minister Li blushed and said, "Prime Minister, please do not slander someone innocent with empty words. If you can't provide evidence, I will sue you for defamation."
The prime minister said disdainfully: "I will find the evidence, just wait."
When the emperor saw that the Seventh Prince was supported by someone and came in, he asked him not to be polite and blamed him for not moving around until he had recovered.
"I'm worried that the Emperor is worried about rewarding me, so I've come here to tell you that it's my duty to serve the court and protect the safety of Great Chu. However, there are still some culprits who haven't been caught, so I won't mention the reward for now. It won't be too late to reward them once the truth is truly revealed and the culprits are caught."
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief. With your words, things would be much easier for him.
"Recently, many ministers have been very concerned about your marriage. The memorials submitted are almost piling up on the desk. What do you think we should do? You had excuses before, but now you have no reason to refuse, right? If we wait for our mother to personally choose a concubine for you, I'm afraid you won't even have the right to choose."
The Seventh Prince coughed lightly, and the palace servants hurriedly brought him tea.
"Brother, how about this? You ask the ministers who wish to marry me to send matchmakers to the palace the day after tomorrow, bringing the young lady's portrait, so that I can carefully choose."
The emperor was very satisfied and asked him if he wanted to go to his mother.
"No, my mother will be distressed to see me like this."
The news that the Seventh Prince was selecting a concubine had spread like wildfire throughout the capital. The myth that the Seventh Prince was a playboy turned out to be false. He had endured hardships for the sake of the Great Chu. He braved the stigma, unraveled the mysteries, and in one fell swoop, he busted the lair of spies in the Northern Desert. He also uncovered a case of corruption at court, recovering a large amount of silver to replenish the treasury. He was a truly meritorious official of the Great Chu!
The reputation of the Seventh Prince changed overnight, and the wealthy and powerful families in the capital who had daughters all asked painters to paint their daughters' portraits and asked matchmakers to propose marriages. Overnight, the prices of painters and matchmakers in the capital skyrocketed.
The Prime Minister and General Ye also discussed this matter when they returned home. They asked Ye Youlan if she wanted to send a portrait to the Seventh Prince's Palace as well.
Ye Youlan laughed. "What about Zhang Liang? I have a good impression of him."
General Ye's face darkened: "He is not suitable."
It turned out that Zhang Liang told him that he had someone he liked, but General Ye scolded him: "If you have someone you like, why did you follow me back to the mansion for dinner?"
Zhang Liang looked aggrieved: "I thought it was just a simple meal."
Ye Youlan asked, "Brother, do you think the Seventh Prince will be interested in me? Don't forget that you all used to dislike the Seventh Prince."
General Ye smiled: "I also dislike him now. I just said this on purpose. My sister, Ye Qingchen, can only choose others, and it is not her turn to be chosen by others."
Ye Youlan asked her father if they still wanted to eat tea eggs?
"I'm not eating it anymore. Except for the first time, the ones after that weren't tasty. Is it because the tea leaves are different?"
The Prime Minister looked at his son and then at his daughter. "The first time we used it, we used Snow Mist Tea. That tea is so precious, you can't buy it even if you have money. How can it not be delicious?"
Ye Youlan chuckled and said nothing more.
