After the divorce, the reborn emperor seduced me into his arms

Yan Qing asked Qingluan and Luzhi to take people to pawn the things of Marquis Wu'an to the pawnshop, while she accompanied her grandmother back to the general's mansion.

When passing by Wufangzhai, Yan Qing remembered that the old lady liked to eat the rose cake from Wufangzhai, so she stopped and said, "Grandma, please wait for me."

Old Madam Ye scolded her, "When you were little, you couldn't walk every time you passed by here. Are you feeling hungry again? Tell me, what do you want to eat this time? I'll buy it for you!"

Yan Qing smiled mischievously: "I'll buy it myself."

After asking Nanny Fang to look after her grandmother, Yan Qing turned and headed towards Wufangzhai. As a result, she ran into an acquaintance as soon as she entered the door.

"Gu...cousin?"

Yan Qing looked at the man in surprise.

"cousin."

Gu Huaizhou smiled at her, walked sideways out of the door, walked in front of Old Madam Ye, and said respectfully: "Madam Ye."

Madam Ye smiled and said, "Ziyuan, why are you here? Didn't I tell you to wait for me at the General's Mansion?"

Yan Qing returned to the two of them with a confused look on his face.

"Ziyuan?"

Yan Qing looked at Old Madam Ye blankly: "Grandma, how do you know Cousin Gu? And..." So familiar?

Madam Ye glanced at her and said, "If it weren't for Ziyuan, I wouldn't have known that your dowry was sold by that little bitch!"

Gu Huaizhou said at the right moment: "I'm worried about my cousin too."

"I'm so worried!"

Old Lady Ye patted Gu Huaizhou on the shoulder with a kind look on her face: "I didn't expect Ziyuan to be such a kind boy."

Yan Qing: “?”

Kind? Could the emperor who had frightened countless people in his previous life be kind?

At this time, Gu Huaizhou handed the package of oil-paper in his hand to Madam Ye and said shyly, "I heard from the people in the General's Mansion that the old lady has had a poor appetite recently, so I came to Wufangzhai to buy some cakes, hoping to stimulate the old lady's appetite."

Madam Ye nodded repeatedly: "Good, not only kind, but also very filial!"

Yan Qing: “???”

The acting is so obvious, can’t my grandmother notice?

Gu Huaizhou turned around and handed another packet of oil paper to Yan Qing, his handsome face shy: "Cousin, this is your favorite preserved flower fruit..."

Yan Qing: “???”

No, why are you shy?

Madam Ye smiled brightly: "Great, great! Not only is he filial but he's also very considerate. He's a good boy!"

Yan Qing had no idea what was going on.

She suddenly pulled Gu Huaizhou aside and asked in a low voice: "Gu Huaizhou, what are you doing?"

Gu Huaizhou: "To please you."

Yan Qing: “…”

Ever since Gu Huaizhou said those ambiguous words to her that day, she has become more and more unscrupulous.

I met her by chance in the mansion.

Even if she stayed in Qingyi Courtyard and didn't go out, he would pass by it again and again. Obviously, his Qingzhu Courtyard and her Qingyi Courtyard were in two completely different directions.

Now he's running to the General's Mansion to look for his grandmother?!

The man's eyes were dark, but full of affection.

Yan Qing turned her head and said, "I don't need you to please me."

"need."

Gu Huaizhou suddenly said, "Open your mouth."

"Wha...ah?"

As Yan Qing opened her mouth, a sweet candied fruit was suddenly stuffed into her mouth.

Gu Huaizhou said softly, "Is it delicious?"

Yan Qing chewed it subconsciously twice: "Delicious..."

The man looked at her with a smile on his face.

Yan Qing blushed instantly.

What was she doing just now...

ashamed!

Over there, Old Madam Ye was grinning from ear to ear, and said to Aunt Fang beside her, "I think this kid from the Gu family is pretty good, much better than that kid Lu!"

Nanny Fang also smiled and said, "Mr. Gu is a handsome man, indeed a good person, but his family background is..."

"Humph!"

Madam Ye snorted, "Is there any family more prominent than our Ye family?"

Nanny Fang nodded: "That's true. At worst, we can let Master Gu marry into our family..."

-

Over there, Yan Qing swallowed the candied fruit and hurried to Old Lady Ye: "Grandma, I'll take you back to the General's Mansion."

Old Madam Ye waved her hand: "No need, I have legs and can go back by myself, you and the boy from the Gu family can go."

Yan Qing: "Let me take you there..."

Old Mrs. Ye glanced at her.

Seeing her insistence, he nodded and said, "Alright, then let's ask the kid from the Gu family to go to the General's Mansion for lunch together."

Yan Qing: “!”

She insisted on sending her grandmother back to the general's mansion just to escape Gu Huaizhou, but her grandmother called Gu Huaizhou instead. What was going on?

Without waiting for Yan Qing to say anything, Gu Huaizhou stepped forward and said, "Thank you, Madam. I would be very sorry to refuse your offer."

Yan Qing glared at him: You can be polite!

Gu Huaizhou looked at her lovingly: Qingqing, I will depend on you for the rest of my life.

Old Madam Ye watched the interaction between the two, suddenly poked Madam Fang's armpit, and whispered, "How am I?"

Aunt Su immediately gave a thumbs up: "Old Madam is awesome!"

Old Mrs. Ye suddenly couldn't stop smiling.

"grandmother!"

Just as Yan Qing and Gu Huaizhou were about to help Old Madam Ye onto the carriage, a surprised voice suddenly rang out.

A few people turned around and saw Ye Chunan standing not far away, with the haggard-looking Wei Yanyan beside him.

Ye Chunan went forward to pay his respects to Old Madam Ye, then looked at Gu Huaizhou in surprise: "Brother Gu, you're here? I've been looking for you these past few days, but Lai Fu always said you weren't there. Last time, after listening to Brother Gu's insights on the Book of Music, I couldn't sleep after returning home. Why don't we find a place to talk more?"

Gu Huaizhou looked at him and said, "I'm about to accompany the old lady back to the mansion. How about Brother Chun'an come with us?"

"Yeah!"

Ye Chunan hasn't been home for a long time: "I miss my mother and grandmother very much. Can I go back with Brother Gu?"

Old Madam Ye snorted, "How could you still remember your mother?"

Ye Chunan immediately admitted his mistake: "Grandma, it was my fault last time. I will kowtow to you and admit my mistake when I get back."

Old Mrs. Ye said nothing.

Wei Yanyan had been following Ye Chunan with a tired look on her face, but when she heard that Ye Chunan was going back to the general's mansion, she immediately looked happy.

God knows how she spent these days.

She originally thought that she could follow Ye Chunan to the general's mansion to enjoy a good life, but who would have thought that he would be kicked out of the house. These days, she had wanted to whisper in Ye Chunan's ear, asking him to admit his mistake to his family and return to the general's mansion, so that she could complete her mission.

As a result, Ye Chunan seemed to be possessed by a demon and insisted on relying on his own abilities to make her live a good life.

I even go out early in the morning and come home very late.

All the household affairs, big or small, were thrown to her.

If she didn't have some pocket money, she would have starved to death long ago. However, the hard work over the past few days had made Wei Yanyan mentally exhausted, and she no longer had the glory of being a top courtesan.

When she heard that Ye Chunan was going back to the General's Mansion, she immediately smiled happily and stepped forward to greet Old Madam Ye, saying, "I also think it's feasible. The eldest lady fainted, and the eldest son has lost his appetite these past few days. I am willing to go with the eldest son to kowtow to the eldest lady and admit my fault."

Ye Chunan was deeply moved: "Yanyan, I'm sorry for wronging you."

Wei Yanyan's eyes were blurred with tears: "I'm not wronged. For the eldest master, Yanyan is willing to do anything."

"Boom boom boom!"

Madam Ye slammed her dragon-headed crutch to the ground, interrupting the two people's exchange of glances: "How can you behave in broad daylight?"

Ye Chunan immediately withdrew his gaze.

He looked at Old Lady Ye expectantly: "Grandma, let Yanyan accompany your grandson back..."

"no!"

Old Madam Ye simply refused: "If you hadn't said you were going to apologize to your mother, I wouldn't have allowed you to go back. As for her—"

The old man looked at Wei Yanyan with his shrewd eyes.

The cold and substantial eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. Wei Yanyan subconsciously lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

Old Madam Ye snorted coldly: "Without my permission, you are not allowed to set foot in the General's Mansion!"

Wei Yanyan lowered her eyes with a slightly cold look.

I didn’t expect this old guy to be so vigilant.

She immediately looked up at Ye Chunan with grievance. Ye Chunan's heart was immediately scratched by a cat. He looked up and was about to plead with Old Lady Ye when Yan Qing suddenly said, "Brother, if that's the case, you should stay with Miss Wei. I will speak for you to my aunt."

Gu Huaizhou also nodded: "The same will happen next time we discuss the Book of Music."

Ye Chunan was immediately confused.

He really wanted to go back and apologize to his mother.

But he wanted to talk about scriptures and stories with Gu Huaizhou even more. Although Gu Huaizhou had no family background, Ye Chunan found that his conversation and knowledge were very rich, even more insightful than many great scholars and teachers he had met. Every time he talked to Gu Huaizhou, Ye Chunan felt like a new person.

Even when I get home I still savor it.

I can't sleep every night.

He had never seen such a knowledgeable person.

Unfortunately, every time he went to the Yan Mansion these days, Lai Fu said that Brother Gu was not there. This time he finally met him. If he missed this opportunity, Ye Chunan didn’t know when he would meet Gu Huaizhou again.

So Ye Chunan looked at Gu Huaizhou, then at Wei Yanyan, and finally said with pain: "Yanyan, since grandma doesn't agree with you going to the general's mansion, why don't you go back first? I will go and apologize to my mother, and then I will go back to accompany you."

Wei Yanyan opened her eyes slightly.

Ye Chunan, this fool, actually asked her to go back?

A line of tears rolled down Wei Yanyan's cheeks. She looked at Ye Chunan with red eyes: "Master, are you going to abandon Yanyan?"

Ye Chunan's eyes instantly turned red: "No, Yanyan, how could I abandon you, I just..."

"Grandma, let's go."

Yan Qing didn't want to watch this woman's performance, so he helped Old Lady Ye into the carriage.

Seeing Gu Huaizhou still standing there.

Yan Qing paused and said reluctantly, "Cousin, come up too..."

"it is good."

Someone instantly smiled like a flower.

Seeing Gu Huaizhou about to leave, Ye Chunan said anxiously, "Brother Gu, wait for me..."

"Master, please don't abandon me..."

But Wei Yanyan kept pulling Ye Chunan's sleeve and crying bitterly.

Ye Chunan felt like he was split in two, one half was his love for Wei Yanyan, the other half was his thirst for knowledge. Seeing Gu Huaizhou also got on the carriage and the driver was about to drive away, he suddenly said urgently: "Yanyan, it's too late, you go back and wait for me first..."

After saying that, he broke Wei Yanbing's hand and ran towards the carriage: "Brother Gu, wait for me!"

He completely ignored the woman behind him.

Wei Yanyan stared at her hands in disbelief. This was the first time Ye Chunan rejected her!

The man who listened to her in everything, who even contradicted his mother for her and made Madam Ye faint from anger, actually left her alone on the street!

For him, she had lived in a shabby house, eaten coarse food, worn old clothes, and done housework these days... She had become a common woman for him, and he had actually left her all alone! !

Wei Yanyan's face twisted instantly.

She suddenly turned around and stared at Ye Chunan's departing back, her eyes gloomy.

Until Ye Chunan and the general's carriage disappeared in the crowd, Wei Yanyan suddenly turned around and entered an inconspicuous shop.

The shop owner saw her and looked behind her. Seeing that she came here alone, he suddenly hurried forward and welcomed her to the back hall.

A handsome man was standing in the back hall, seemingly waiting for Wei Yanyan's arrival.

Wei Yanyan stepped forward excitedly.

But she stopped when she was five steps away from the man. She stared at his back in fascination and knelt down to salute: "Yan Yan greets His Majesty."

The man turned around and it turned out to be King Ying Zhu of Qi.

Ying Zhu stepped forward and helped Wei Yanyan up, his expression gentle: "You have worked hard."

Wei Yanyan burst into tears: "It's not hard, for the prince... Yanyan is willing to die!"

Ying Zhu nodded: "How is Ye Chunan? Can I take you to the general's mansion?"

"It would have been possible, but..."

Wei Yanyan immediately recounted what happened on Ye Chunan's first day back in Kyoto, and angrily said, "If it weren't for Second Miss Yan's sudden appearance, the Ye family would definitely have compromised under the circumstances..."

"Yan Er..."

Ying Zhu thought of Yan Qing's face and squinted his eyes and said, "It's you again!"

These days, he was also implicated because of the affairs of the Princess's Mansion. Many officials in the court were fence-sitters. Seeing that he was in decline, they began to turn to Prince Ning. Some even sided with Prince Jing, who never cared about court affairs!

All this is Yan Qing’s fault!

If she had not brought Gongsun Zhi to the princess's mansion, Lu Mingyue would not have died, and the old case in Fan Yang would not have been implicated. It would not have attracted the attention of her father, allowing her father to take this opportunity to place her mother under house arrest and demote several core officials of the Wang family.

It's obviously just a small matter.

But he didn't know why it caused such a huge uproar, almost everyone fell to the ground and he suffered losses continuously, and he couldn't control it at all!

"Yan Qing!"

Ying Zhu chewed on her name and suddenly called out, "Mo Dao."

The secret guard Mo Dao appeared in front of Ying Zhu, and Ying Zhu asked, "What has been going on in the Yan Mansion these days?"

Mo Dao lowered his head and said, "Second Miss Yan has been staying at the mansion these past few days. This morning, she suddenly took her maid to the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion to ask for her dowry. She happened to run into Master Lu and the others returning home, and then..."

Mo Dao thought of the scene he had just witnessed, and said strangely, "Then Miss Yan emptied the Marquis' Mansion."

Ying Zhu sneered: "It seems that she has completely given up on Lu Qiaonan."

Mo Dao said bewilderedly, "If the prince lets Master Lu out, won't that be a waste of chess?"

"Humph!"

Ying Zhu suddenly thought of Gu Huaizhou, whom he had seen at the princess's residence. He said with an inexplicable expression, "I don't think so..."

Yan Qing gave up on Lu Qiaonan, but Lu Qiaonan may not have given up on her.

A useless chess piece is still a chess piece, who says it can’t be used?

"Go and bring Lu Qiaonan over..."

"Yes."

After Mo Dao left, Ying Zhu said to Wei Yanyan, "You should go too. Remember, break into the Ye Mansion as soon as possible."

Wei Yanyan looked at him aggrievedly.

The King of Qi sneered and suddenly stepped forward to hold her waist. He hooked his arm around Wei Yanyan's chin and said, "Don't worry, as long as you can enter the Ye Mansion and help me eliminate that old scoundrel Ye Zhennan, I will definitely reward you..."
