Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time

The prime minister asked his daughter how many times she had met the Seventh Prince?

Youlan counted on her fingers and said, "I've only seen him today. I've only heard of him before, but never seen him in person."

The prime minister finally put his heart at ease: "From now on, learn needlework from your sister-in-law and stay out of the house less. Girls should be more cautious."

The eldest brother laughed heartily: "Seventh Prince, I have met him a few times. He is a good-looking man, but he is a playboy. He spends every day in brothels and never wants to leave."

The Prime Minister's wife shook her head when she heard this. "The Seventh Prince should be twenty-five now. Why is the Emperor not arranging his marriage and just letting him do whatever he wants?"

Ye Youlan yawned and the prime minister asked her to go back and rest.

After Ye Youlan left, the Prime Minister's wife was very moved that she never expected her youngest daughter to give her pocket money.

The eldest brother was embarrassed: "Mom, it's all my son's fault."

The Prime Minister's wife realized that she had spoken out of turn.

She smiled apologetically: "My son is great, and my daughter-in-law is also good. The greatest achievement is to give me a fat grandson next year."

My sister-in-law is shy.

The eldest brother and his wife returned to their yard, and the eldest sister-in-law handed the silver to the eldest brother and asked him to use it.

"No need, this is yours because your sister gave it to you. You can spend it however you want."

"My sister-in-law is so brave. I really envy her."

The eldest brother disagreed: "Why envy her? Don't try to imitate her. We have only one person like her in our Ye family, and we can't have more."

"why?"

"Fearful, the whole family is worried."

The elder sister-in-law smiled and asked her younger sister-in-law if she would not have to worry anymore after she got married.

The eldest brother shook his head: "When she gets married, she's worried that the man she finds won't be good enough, and that her mother-in-law will make her angry. When she has children, she's worried that she won't be able to educate them."

The eldest sister-in-law shook her head speechlessly: "Aren't you afraid of spoiling her?"

The eldest brother looked at his sister-in-law and asked, "Are you jealous?"

The eldest sister-in-law shook her head: "I will spoil her with you."

In the Shangshu's study, Shangshu Li asked Li Zong if he had ever mentioned marriage to Ye Youlan?

Li Zong didn't dare look his father in the eye. He said reluctantly, "Father, I don't like Li Youlan. The Prime Minister's Mansion is ruined. Why should we use Ye Youlan to whitewash the family?"

Minister Li was so angry that he shook his head and pointed at him, "You're just an idiot. I'm on good terms with the Prime Minister, and everyone knows it. It's a done deal for our children to marry each other, and everyone in the court knows it. If the Prime Minister falls from power one day, we'll break off your marriage with Youlan. Others will only think we're kicking someone when they're down, and trying to win them over. They'll have to think twice. If you marry Ye Youlan, our Li family's reputation for loyalty and righteousness will spread, and those who are waiting will naturally know which side to take."

"Then try harder, son!"

Li Zong asked his father what to do next. The prime minister must have been suspicious during the last banquet at Full Moon Tower.

Minister Li said impatiently, "I will take care of this matter. You will be responsible for taking Ye Youlan down and trying to finalize the marriage first."

Li Zong returned to his room, feeling unhappy when he thought about how the Seventh Prince had stolen all the limelight at the farm today.

His little follower Xiao Bao gave him an idea. Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon, so he could ask Miss Ye to go to the night market. After all, she would be wearing a mask, and everything would fall into place if they held hands.

Li Zong smiled. He planned to ask Ye Youlan out tomorrow.

Ye Youlan asked Xiaomei to tell the people in Li's house that she would be waiting for Li Zong at the night market entrance two days later wearing a ghost mask.

In the afternoon, Ye Youlan went to have tea with her sisters, and they talked about what kind of mask would be better to wear when visiting the night market.

Qin Yurou said unhappily, "Why are there so many rules for visiting a night market?"

Chen Xiaoling disagreed: "Of course I have to wear a mask I like when I go to the night market. How happy it would be if I could wear the same mask as the guy I like!"

Ye Youlan asked Xiaomei to bring the masks over. There were five masks in the bundle, including doll masks, facial masks, and ghost masks.

"The day after tomorrow, let's go to the night market and see if we can find our own people."

Li Miaoyu laughed. This was funny. "The person who gets found loses and has to treat everyone to a meal."

So everyone started choosing masks.

Jin Ruoyun chose a doll mask, while Chen Xiaoling and Li Miaoyu chose facial masks, one was red and the other was blue.

Ye Youlan reached out to take the ghost mask, but Qin Yurou snatched it away.

"Ye Youlan, this ghost mask doesn't suit you. Why don't you wear this doll mask?"

Ye Youlan was not convinced: "But I like this ghost mask."

Qin Yurou was very proud: "But your hands are not as fast as mine."

"Qin Yurou, be careful. I'm going to find you tomorrow and you'll have to treat us at the Yuxianglou."

"Okay, find me first."

When Ye Youlan returned home, she saw a servant in the garden carrying a box towards her father's study. Ye Youlan stopped him and said that she had something to do in her father's study and could just bring it with her.

Ye Youlan took it and weighed it, feeling it was very light. After the servant left, she walked to the stone bench beside her and opened the box. Inside were several letters and a jade pendant. The jade was of high quality, but the workmanship was average.

Ye Youlan took it out and looked at it from left to right. The envelope was rough and there was no words on it. She suddenly had a bad feeling. She quickly packed up her things, carried it, and walked towards the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

She knew that if she went out the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion and passed through an alley, there would be an inn called Tongfu Inn. It was the property of the Seventh Prince, and the owner and the clerks in the inn were all his men.

Ye Youlan went out the back door, crossed the alley, and soon saw Tongfu Inn. As soon as she stepped in, she heard the waiter enthusiastically ask her if she wanted to stay at the hotel.

Ye Youlan lowered her voice and said, "Open a good room for me, and then find someone to go to the Seventh Prince's Mansion and tell him that Ye Youlan wants to see him."

The waiter was stunned for a moment. He saw Ye Youlan dressed in luxurious clothes, with a fair face and jade-like figure. She was holding a box in her hand and nothing else. She didn't look like someone who was staying in the hotel.

The clerk whispered a few words to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper took Ye Youlan upstairs while the clerk went out.

Ye Youlan didn't expect that the shopkeeper would take her to a particularly luxurious room. She calculated in her mind that it would cost ten taels of silver to stay there for one night.

The shopkeeper left without saying much, and a waiter brought in tea and snacks.

Less than an incense stick's time passed before the Seventh Prince arrived. His sky-blue brocade robe was resplendent and dazzling, and his handsome features were beaded with sweat. He had arrived in such a hurry.

Ye Youlan gestured for him to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.

Seeing Ye Youlan's calm expression, the Seventh Prince couldn't help but complain: "Do you know that it's dangerous for you to do this?"

Ye Youlan smiled sweetly at the Seventh Prince: "I know this is your family's inn, and it is also the fastest way to see you."

The Seventh Prince glared: "How did you know?"

Ye Youlan opened the box and pushed it in front of him: "Take a look at this first."

The Seventh Prince took out the letter, put it under his nose and smelled it, then looked at the jade pendant.

"The jade for this jade pendant is from Beimo, and this envelope is also made of Beimo paper. Their craftsmanship is not good, and it looks very rough. Where did you get these things?"
