Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time

As everyone was talking, they suddenly heard a voice saying that the Seventh Prince had arrived. Ye Youlan and the others looked in the direction of the voice, but could not see anything clearly. They only saw many men standing by the lake in the distance.

It looked like they were playing a skipping stone game. Ye Youlan said that men were so childish.

Chen Xiaoling envies how good it is to be a man.

Suddenly, there was a splash and someone shouted, "General Ye fell into the water, hurry up and save him."

Yuhua was so frightened that her face turned pale. She pulled Ye Youlan and ran towards the lake. Chen Xiaoling and others followed.

The lake water was cold in autumn, and the lake in the palace was very deep. Many people stood by the lake anxiously, but no one went into the water to save people.

Ye Youlan ran to the lake, pulled away from everyone else, and jumped in, swimming towards the person whose head was sticking out of the lake.

"Ye Youlan, you're going to die."

"Youlan, be careful."

Yuhua looked nervously at the two people in the lake who were getting closer and closer. Her heart was in a knot. Chen Xiaoling supported her and advised her not to panic. She wondered when Ye Youlan would learn to swim and how come she didn't know?

A man came over and supported Yuhua. Yuhua looked up and saw that it was Ye Qingchen. She was a little confused. Who was the person in the water?

Ye Qingchen was chatting with an acquaintance just now. When he heard someone fell into the water, he hurried over.

"It was the Seventh Prince who fell into the water."

"Then who just shouted that General Ye fell into the water?"

General Ye was also puzzled, but at this moment he was only concerned about Youlan. He stood by the lake and shouted, "Youlan, come back, I didn't fall into the water."

But Youlan seemed not to hear. She approached the man in the lake, reached out and grabbed his upper body and swam across the lake.

General Ye supported Yuhua and walked over there, and the people next to him wanted to follow.

General Ye paused and said, "It's better for everyone to stay here."

Everyone understood that Miss Ye sacrificed herself to save someone, thinking she was saving her own brother, but ended up saving the Seventh Prince. The man and woman's clothes were soaked, so it was indeed inappropriate for them to go there.

Li Zhi ran towards the lake with clothes in his hands, shouting, "Prince, your wounds haven't healed yet. What should I do?"

When General Ye rushed over, Ye Youlan had already climbed ashore. Xiaomei wrapped her in clothes and was helping her to go to the side hall to change clothes.

Seeing that her elder brother was safe and sound, Ye Youlan looked at him in surprise: "Brother, you didn't fall into the water. Then who did I save just now?"

"You saved me." The Seventh Prince said, enduring the pain all over his body, "Thank you, Miss Ye, for saving me."

Ye Youlan stamped her feet in anger. "Hate it! Why would I save you if I had nothing to do? Who was it that just shouted that my eldest brother fell into the water?"

Ye Youlan was sneezing, and Xiaomei urged her to change her clothes quickly.

"Go home quickly."

General Ye carried Ye Youlan outside, and Yuhua and Xiaomei followed behind. There were water marks on their clothes along the way.

Li Zhi helped the Seventh Prince to change his clothes and then consult the imperial physician.

The banquet ended in such a strange way, but the story of Ye Youlan bravely saving the prince who fell into the water spread.

The emperor had no choice but to summon the prime minister into the palace to arrange a marriage for Ye Youlan.

The prime minister disagreed. Youlan thought that Ye Qingchen had rescued someone because he fell into the water, and her original intention was not to save the Seventh Prince, so she did not need the Seventh Prince to marry her.

Seeing the Prime Minister's indignant expression, the Emperor quickly tried to persuade him, "I know the Prime Minister is unhappy with my brother, but this matter concerns Youlan's reputation. I hope the Prime Minister will give it some consideration. You, the Ye family, can make any demands, and I will agree to them on my brother's behalf."

The prime minister didn't consider it at all. He said, "I will send Youlan away and change her name. I won't let my daughter marry someone with grievance."

The emperor cursed the prime minister in his heart for being stubborn. He asked the prime minister to go back and think about it again and not to rush to reply.

The emperor came to the empress dowager, who was talking to the seventh prince. The imperial physician had just diagnosed that he had caught a cold and needed more rest.

The emperor asked him how he fell into the lake?

The Seventh Prince said weakly, "We were having a water skipping game, and when I tried to push, someone next to me bumped into me, causing me to lose my balance and fall into the lake. The more I struggled, the further I got from the edge. Thanks to Miss Ye for saving me, how can I thank her?"

"How can you thank her? The only way you can do this is to marry her."

Upon hearing this, the Seventh Prince quickly waved his hands: "That Ye Youlan is sharp-tongued, I don't like her. I can't marry her just because she saved someone, right?"

The emperor wanted to laugh when he saw his disgusted expression: "The Prime Minister doesn't like you either. The Prime Minister said that he would rather Ye Youlan change her name than marry you."

"That's perfect, I couldn't ask for more."

"Nonsense, Miss Ye saved you and the news spread all over the capital. It will be difficult for Miss Ye to get married in the future. If you don't marry her, you will be ungrateful. You have to marry her whether you like it or not."

The Seventh Prince looked at the Queen Mother and said, "Mother, please help me persuade my brother. I don't want to marry Ye Youlan."

The Queen Mother winked at the Emperor: "Go and do your work. I will come and persuade him."

After the Emperor left, the Queen Mother advised, "You are too inhumane now. It doesn't matter who you marry. It's better to marry Ye Youlan. It will show that you are grateful."

"Okay, I'll listen to my mother, but what should I do if the Prime Minister's family doesn't like me?"

The Queen Mother said confidently, "I'll talk to the old Prime Minister. If that doesn't work, I'll talk to Ye Youlan."

Ye Youlan returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, took a hot bath and lay comfortably on the bed. Xiaomei brought her ginger tea to warm her body.

After drinking the ginger tea, her whole body was sweating and she felt comfortable. When she was about to have a good sleep, her family members lined up to come and show their concern for her. The most important thing they wanted to know was when did she learn to swim?

Ye Youlan would not tell her that she learned it in the swimming pool. She told everyone who came to care about her: "I can't swim. I just heard that my eldest brother fell into the water, so I jumped into the lake without thinking, and then I just paddled with my hands and learned it. It's amazing, don't you think?

Everyone laughed, it was indeed magical, but apart from this explanation, they couldn't guess a better reason.

The prime minister told Ye Youlan that the emperor intended to grant her a marriage, and he would not force her to marry if she did not want to.

"I just jumped into the lake to save someone, and why did you have to sacrifice me? What kind of justice is this? Is there any law?"

Ye Youlan exclaimed, and Xiaomei tugged at her clothes, hinting that it was enough.

General Ye looked ashamed and said, "Youlan, if you don't want to marry me, then don't marry me. No matter what others say, I can support you in my Prime Minister's Mansion."

Chen Xiaoling, Miaoyu, and Ruoyun also came to see her. When there were only four of them in the room, Chen Xiaoling was curious about how she could hold such a large man in the lake. Their bodies would have to be pressed against each other.

Ye Youlan rolled her eyes at Chen Xiaoling: "Sister, I'm just saving people, I don't think too much."

Miaoyu looked at her worriedly: "What should I do? There are rumors outside that you are going to marry the Seventh Prince."

Chen Xiaoling said angrily, "I heard that the Seventh Prince didn't want to marry, but the Emperor and the Queen Mother insisted that the Seventh Prince take responsibility. What kind of responsibility is that? He's just marrying her home as a decoration! This is such a hateful world. We're always talking about reputation, but why doesn't anyone require men to have a chastity archway?"
