Ye Yutong knew that Zhuang Zichen and the others were going to follow, so he asked Han Zhen to help arrange a carriage.
Then he told Han Zhen, "Brother Han, I'll go back and make arrangements first. You guys keep an eye on the people of Prince Liang and serve them with delicious food and drinks. I'll come back to deal with it after a while."
Han Zhen said with some worry: "Madam, if these people are detained for a long time, will Prince Liang become suspicious? If he sends people over again, we may not be able to find out."
This is what Ye Yutong is worried about.
Unexpectedly, at this juncture, people from King Liang and King Xia would come to Qingzhou City.
If they don't deal with all these people, they may have a bad start in the first battle.
Ye Yutong calculated the time and found that Song Jingyan should have received the letter long ago. She must also know what this matter will involve?
It should take a few days to receive her reply, or how many days should I wait in Qingzhou City?
She immediately went back to her room and wrote a letter to Ding Yi, "Brother Ding, I'm waiting here for news from the mountain. You can give this letter to Uncle Lin Zhong and ask him to notify Ping An as soon as possible."
"Yes, ma'am."
Seeing that Ding Yi was about to go out with the letter, she hurriedly shouted: "Brother Ding, it's a bit late today. Let's leave early tomorrow morning and take Zhuang Zichen and others back."
Ding Yi looked at the sky and saw that it was only half afternoon. He said to Ye Yutong: "Madam, I will pick up Zhuang Zichen and the others now and set off overnight today."
Ye Yutong nodded, "That's fine, it's all thanks to you."
Ding hugged her fists and went out immediately.
At this time, Song Jingyan and Ye Mingzhe were also on their way in a hurry.
There were twenty people in their group, including ten guards arranged by Xie Dong, plus six maids and two boys.
Ye Mingzhe was afraid that Song Jingyan wouldn't be able to bear it, so he planned to walk slower and rest for an hour.
But Song Jingyan was afraid that it would take too long and affect Li Yunze and Ye Yutong's plans, so she didn't agree.
In addition to eating and sleeping, I am always on the road.
She has been in the mountains for almost a year. She usually goes to the fields with Li Wenxiu and Qiaoer to do farm work and pick wild vegetables. She is already used to walking on the mountain roads.
Every morning when I wake up, I still practice boxing with the children in the valley. Now my health is much better than before.
She felt in better shape than before she got married, and she didn't feel tired at all while walking these mountainous roads.
Those six maids have been practicing martial arts for two years, and the Tianshan Road is no problem for them.
When they arrived at Qingshan Town and went to the factory to say hello, Song Jingyan urged Ye Mingzhe to continue on their way before they even had time to take a bite.
Seeing how anxious they were, Yan San didn't dare to ask any more questions.
He quickly asked the kitchen to prepare dry food for them, and changed horses and carriages for them.
When they were on the mountain, Song Jingyan had already told Ye Mingzhe the matter and expressed her worries.
Tongtong and Ping An are her saviors, no, they should be the benefactors of their whole family.
Although she can't repay the favor of saving her life now, she will definitely not hold them back.
She didn't know if Li Yunhang was still as indifferent as before and had no interest in rights. I just hope to take his mother to find a quiet place and live a life without fighting against the world.
If he still thinks so, that's for the best.
If not, then she... can only stand with Tongtong and Ping An.
It was already evening when they arrived at Qingzhou City.
Ye Yutong had just had dinner and was walking in the courtyard when he heard Ye Mingzhe's voice next door.
She quickly opened the courtyard door and saw Song Jingyan and Ye Mingzhe walking from the next door, followed by her six maids.
Ye Yutong called people to the small courtyard where she lived, "Sister Jingyan, why are you down here?"
She thought Song Jingyan would send a message, but she didn't expect that she would come in person and come so quickly?
Did he set off immediately after receiving her letter, or did he rush on non-stop to reach Qingzhou City in such a short time?
"Tongtong, such a big thing happened, how could I not come?"
Ye Yutong did not answer her words, but smiled at the maids: "You guys have been traveling for so long, and you are all tired.
Go wash up first and have a good night's rest. I will arrange tasks for you tomorrow. "
"Yes, ma'am."
The maids took a few steps back, then turned around and left gently.
Ye Yutong waited for them to retreat, then took Song Jingyan's hand and said:
"Sister Jingyan, I don't know the past between you and Prince Liang, and I don't know how to handle this matter properly? After discussing with Ping An, I decided to ask you what you mean."
Song Jingyan sighed and told Ye Yutong all the past events of the two of them.
"Tongtong, Li Yunhang and I grew up together. At first, I never had any other thoughts about him.
A few months before I got my hairpin, he gave me a hairpin and a pair of jade bracelets.
When I was a child, he often gave me some toys. I thought it was a birthday gift from him, so I accepted it without thinking twice.
He was very happy at the time, expressed his feelings to me, and said he would go to my house to propose marriage. I just knew he meant that.
I was so frightened by him at that time that I quickly returned the things to him and clearly refused.
But that person was very shameless, and even after being rejected by me, he kept pestering me. Later, I was so pestered by him that I had no choice but to think about it. "
When Song Jingyan said this, her face turned red and she was a little embarrassed. She glanced at Ye Yutong secretly.
Seeing that she was drinking tea from a teacup, there was no abnormal color on her face, as if this was a normal thing.
Song Jingyan took a breath and continued the topic, "But two days before I was born, someone from the Fang family came. Only then did I know that my grandfather had arranged a marriage for me when I was just born."
Speaking of this, Song Jingyan's tone became much lower.
When she spoke again, her voice was full of sadness, "I told Li Yunhang about this that night, but he acted like crazy and wanted to find my grandfather, but I stopped him.
I told him that I didn't mean anything to him. I said I would consider it some time ago, but I was annoyed by his pestering, and I said that deliberately to perfunctory him. "
Seeing that her eyes were a little red, Ye Yutong quickly lowered his head and refilled her tea.
Song Jingyan picked up the tea cup and took a sip, calmed down her mood, and continued to reminisce.
"A few days before I got married, he went to Fengcheng to find me again and said that if I didn't want to get married, he would go to my father to propose marriage now.
When I heard it, I was a little moved, but I couldn't agree to him. In order to make him give up, I rejected him ruthlessly. "
Ye Yutong glanced at her and asked tentatively: "Sister Jingyan, I see that you are also interested in him, why didn't you fight for it then?"
Song Jingyan paused for a while and then said calmly: "Actually, when I knew about this marriage, I tested my grandparents.
My grandmother told me that if the Fang family had not canceled the marriage, our family would never regret it.
When my grandfather was young, he was favored by the old man of the Fang family. The two of them had arranged this marriage a few years ago.
If I regret it now, others will say that our Song family is treacherous and unfaithful, so I must get married. "
Ye Yutong sighed, not knowing how to comfort her.
She is a modern person, and she is very disdainful of the kindness of the previous generation, but the marriage of future generations.
But there was nothing she could do to change that.
Song Jingyan put down her teacup, "Tongtong, where are the people sent by Li Yunhang? I'm going to meet them."
Ye Yutong stood up and said, "It's in the courtyard next door. Sister Jingyan, I'll take you there."
