Early the next morning, Ye Yuqing sent her son to Mrs. Hou.
She took the exquisite gifts prepared by the Hou Mansion and went to the place where Ye Yutong stayed with the Ye family.
Ye Yuqing thought they had arrived early enough.
But when they arrived, several luxurious carriages were already parked at the entrance of the alley.
Several wives and young ladies from official families were waiting to be summoned there.
Seeing the carriage of Marquis Pingyuan's Mansion approaching, there were two ladies who were familiar with Mrs. Marquis Pingyuan, so they were ready to come over and say hello.
But when they walked up to them, they saw the people getting off the carriage and they didn't recognize them at all.
"Are you from Pingyuan Houfu? Why didn't Mrs. Han come?" The younger lady asked Ye Yuqing in surprise.
For such an important occasion, even if Mrs. Han comes by herself, the Crown Princess may not see her.
Why did you send a junior here? This is too imprudent and completely inconsistent with Mrs. Pingyuan's all-round and exquisite character.
Ye Yuqing did not introduce herself. If they knew that she was just a concubine, they would definitely look down on her.
She smiled and curtsied to the two of them, "I have met the two ladies. I am from the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion. I came here to see my cousin and cousin."
When the older lady heard that she was here to find her cousin, her mind changed and she asked with a smile:
"I often go to Pingyuan Houfu, but why haven't I seen you? Does your cousin live here too?"
Ye Yuqing smiled and nodded, "Yes."
The lady wanted to ask again, so Ye Daqing and Ye Mingxiang came over with smiles.
"Qing'er, let's go and take a look first. Your grandpa and grandma are still waiting at home. The second brother hasn't seen his grandkids in several years, so he is very anxious. He didn't sleep all night last night."
"It's uncle."
Ye Yuqing smiled apologetically at the two ladies and followed Ye Daqing and Ye Mingxiang into the alley.
The two ladies looked at each other and followed them with their maid and grandma.
The old ladies in the car in front were also a little anxious, but they maintained their identities and did not get off the carriage. They only asked the boy to go over and ask.
But as soon as they reached the entrance of the alley, they were stopped by guards.
At this time, a guard came out and said to the people waiting there:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Crown Princess has been overworked over the past few years and her health has not been very good. The doctor asked her to rest for a while. His Highness asked you to go back first and then summon you after entering the palace."
The wives of each government came to visit as usual today, just to pay a courtesy.
Everyone had guessed when they arrived that they would not be able to see the Crown Princess today, but they still had to leave this time.
Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has spoken. Everyone said a few greetings with concern and prepared to go back home.
But at this time, Ye Yuqing stepped forward eagerly and asked the guard who came to deliver the message, "Is the Crown Princess okay? Can you let me go and see her? I am her cousin."
The ladies from each mansion looked at her in surprise.
Ye Yuqing achieved her goal and ignored those people. She only pretended to look at the guard anxiously, showing she was very worried about Ye Yutong.
The guard didn't know whether what she said was true or not, so he looked her over and said, "Madam, please wait a moment. I'll go back and report."
People looking at each house also stopped, and the guards handed the guests off, "Everyone, please go back."
The ladies glanced at Ye Yuqing before leaving.
The young guard went in to report. Apart from the guards standing guard at the entrance of the alley, only Ye Yuqing, Ye Daqing and Ye Mingxiang were left.
Ye Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that all the ladies were gone. Then she sent the maids and servants she brought to a distant place to wait.
It's still not sure whether Ye Yutong will see them or not. It would be better if these people are not here, otherwise they will make a fool of themselves in public.
Ye Yutong got up a little late today. He had just had breakfast and was preparing to go around the palace with Li Yunze.
Then I heard the maid coming over to report that there was a lady outside who called herself her cousin.
Li Yutong listened to the great music and talked about the people in the old house with his eldest and second brothers last night.
I didn't expect that he would come to my door so soon. He is really thick-skinned.
She went out and told the commander of the guard, "I don't have any cousins, cousins, or uncles. If these people come here to try to get relatives in the future, there is no need to report them, they will be kicked out!"
"yes."
The three of them stood outside, feeling a little uneasy. When they saw a group of guards approaching, they immediately stepped forward to ask.
But before they could speak, the person at the front pulled out his sword, pointed at Ye Yuqing at the front and said:
"You guys are so brave. You dare to pretend to be relatives of the Crown Princess. You are simply seeking death."
Ye Yuqing's face turned pale with fright, and she took two steps back. Ye Mingxiang wanted to step forward to argue, but she stopped him.
Ye Daqing quickly smiled and said: "Brother, guard, maybe we recognized the wrong person. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we'll leave right away."
Seeing them running away in despair, several guards put away their swords and sneered at their backs.
Ye Yuqing was still in shock until she got on the carriage. She asked the coachman to go to Ye's house first, and planned to ask her grandpa what to do next.
Judging from Ye Yutong's attitude today, he definitely didn't want to recognize them.
But who could be willing to give up such incredible wealth?
Old Man Ye and Mrs. Ye Zhang were waiting at home eagerly.
Hearing the sound of a carriage approaching from a distance, he immediately opened the courtyard door.
When he saw the faces of the three people, Old Ye's heart sank to the bottom.
Ye Daqing said solemnly: "Dad, let's talk after we enter the house."
Ye Yuqing asked her servants to wait outside, and the family closed the door and talked inside.
Old Man Ye heard that they didn't even see Ye Yutong's face, so he was kicked back with a very ugly look on his face.
Mrs. Ye Zhang cursed viciously: "That damn girl has been difficult to deal with since she was a child. She is inhumane and just like that bitch Li Wenxiu. If I had known that, I should have found a way to kill her when I was a child."
"mother."
Ye Daqing quickly stopped her from cursing, and reminded her in a low voice, "Mom, please be careful what you say in the future, this is not Yejia Village.
That girl is the princess now. If what you just said reaches her ears, our whole family will die without even knowing it. "
Mrs. Ye Zhang immediately covered her mouth, "No way, does she really dare to kill us? She is not afraid of others saying that she is ruthless, even her own elders will not be spared. This is extremely unfilial."
Several people were silent after hearing her words.
Now they are not sure, if Ye Yutong really offends Ye Yutong, how will the damn girl deal with them?
Old Man Ye took a puff of dry cigarette and looked at his proudest son, "Daqing, what do you think we should do now? So that the girl can recognize us."
Ye Daqing lowered his eyes and thought for a while and said: "Dad, let's wait first, and don't go looking for her during this time.
After the prince succeeds to the throne, he will definitely have a wide selection of girls, and the ministers will definitely find ways to send their daughters to the palace.
If Ye Yutong wants to be the queen, she will definitely not dare to break up with us and let those cunning ministers catch her.
So we don't have to worry, it won't be too late to show up when the emperor wants to seal the queen. "
Old Man Ye nodded, "Okay, let's do this. Do whatever you need to do during this period. After the prince ascends the throne, your mother and I will go find Tong Yatou and the two boys Mingxuan Mingzhe in person."
He looked at Ye Yuqing again and said, "Girl Qing, don't tell your husband's family about today in advance. If they ask, just say that Tong girl is sick. We haven't seen her today. We'll wait until she recovers."
"I understand, grandpa."
