Ye Chutang shook his head gently, with a gentle voice: "Second uncle is devoted to me. He only said that he would choose it himself, but the details... haven't been decided yet."
The eldest princess chuckled: "So, he is really interested in you."
Ye Heng has a daughter, and the reputation of this daughter's beauty has long spread throughout the capital. When many people mention the Ye family, they know that they have a beautiful daughter.
I also know that the Ye family must have put in a lot of effort behind this.
Ye Heng's official position was not high before, but now he was finally promoted to the rank of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, so he tried to send his daughter to the court flower banquet. What was in his mind was clear to anyone with a discerning eye.
He simply wanted to send this daughter to marry into a high family and ensure prosperity and wealth for the rest of her life.
Now that his own daughter has not yet been found, how can he think about Ye Chutang?
As long as he truly loved his niece, he would not be able to occupy his brother's house and not leave. On the contrary, it would make Ye Chutang and the others feel like they were living under someone else's roof!
Princess Qinyang sneered: "He chooses for you? What good one can he choose?"
With her status, she was indeed qualified to look down on Ye Heng.
Ye Chutang didn't seem to care: "My father and brother are no longer here, and they have been away from home for the past three years. It is normal for the marriage to be difficult. It is hard to live up to my second uncle's intentions."
Princess Qinyang simply couldn't stand listening: "Did you make a mistake? You! Are you still afraid that you won't find a good family?"
Just her appearance and demeanor alone are enough to impress countless noble ladies in the capital, not to mention such good medical skills!
Ye Chutang shook his head: "What I care about is not this, but Ayan Afeng and Xiaowu. After all, they are still children."
The eldest princess looked at Ye Chutang. It was obvious that she was only a seventeen-year-old girl, but she was calm, restrained, calm and peaceful beyond her age.
I don’t know how much hardship I have endured in the past to develop such a magnanimous temperament.
She patted Ye Chutang's hand, stretched her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Marriage is a major event in life, there is no need to rush it, and you have just returned to the capital, so why not spend more time walking around and having fun. Don't worry, I am here, I will choose a good match for you from now on."
These words hold great weight.
The eldest princess has a distinguished status. If she is willing to propose Ye Chutang's hand in marriage, I don't know how many high-ranking families will be lining up to wait.
A rising tide lifts all boats, and with the support of the eldest princess, Ye Chutang naturally has more confidence.
No matter how Ye Heng chooses, can he be higher than the eldest princess?
Ye Chutang's lips curved slightly, and he knelt down to salute. His long eyelashes cast a faint shadow under his eyes.
"Thank you, Princess."
The eldest princess smiled and said: "You saved my life. There is no need to be polite here. By the way, there happens to be a polo match held in the palace next month. How about you come and enjoy it too?"
…
Dali Temple.
Ye Heng sat behind the desk with the open file in his hand.
There have been a lot of cases recently and he is a new official. He is eager to make some achievements and spends most of his time on this.
However, as he watched, his eyelids gradually became heavy and his consciousness gradually drifted away.
The words in front of me seemed to be shaking, and I was dazzled.
"Master Ye? Master Ye?"
Someone next to him called him several times, and Ye Heng suddenly hit his head and almost fell off the chair.
He hurriedly grabbed the armrest of the chair, shook his head, and looked up.
When he saw the person coming, he trembled and stood up quickly:
"Master Su, why are you here?"
The person who came was none other than Su Wei, the minister of Dali Temple.
Su Wei looked at him for a few times and shook his head: "Master Ye, have you not slept well these days?"
This was not the first time Ye Heng fell asleep while reading the dossier.
Su Wei didn't pay much attention to it the previous two times, but this frequency was really a bit high, and he was already very dissatisfied.
Of course Ye Heng knew what he meant, and looked ashamed: "Forgive me, Mr. Su, I, I just felt a little sleepy suddenly, just... don't worry, I will finish reviewing this file as soon as possible!"
Su Wei said: "No need, you can leave this to others. You go back early today and have a good rest."
Ye Heng's heart sank, and finally he could only say: "...Yes."
As he walked out, many of his colleagues gave him various looks, which made Ye Heng feel like he had a ray of light on his back.
Faintly, some low voices can be heard.
"He left early again today?"
"That's Master Su's idea. Who can bear to sit here and not work but just sleep?"
"He wasn't like this before. I really don't know what's going on..."
"Haven't you heard? There's been a lot going on in the Ye family recently, it's very strange!"
Ye Heng quickened his pace and left quickly with a sullen face.
There really hasn’t been anything happy lately!
Gao was ill, and the rash on his face and body would not go away for a long time. He would feel horrified if he looked at it more than once.
Ye Shixian attended the Chaohua Banquet, hoping that she would show off her talent and be the most beautiful, but unexpectedly she fell into the lake and lost her face.
What upset him the most was Ye Mingze.
He was actually called out by the sacrificial wine and rushed home... He has been laughed to death these days!
There are so many children in the Imperial College, but only his son Ye Heng has caused such a big trouble!
What's more, because of this incident, rumors that Ye Mingze was ill became more and more intense.
And himself! I don’t know what’s going on lately. I always feel like sleeping. It’s hard to concentrate when I’m at work, and my efficiency is low.
If this continues...
Ye Heng shuddered.
Could it be...that there was really something wrong with that house?
"Master Ye!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice broke Ye Heng's thoughts, and he looked back.
"Master Han? Why are you here?"
Han Tong smiled and said, "Isn't the polo match about to start? I'm very busy preparing for the palace banquet."
Ye Heng understood: "That's it."
Today's Holy Emperor conquers the world on horseback, so every year at this time, a polo match is organized in the palace, and all the princes and many children from aristocratic families will also take the field to compete.
Grand and lively.
Ye Heng said: "No wonder you have been so busy recently that I haven't seen you much."
Han Tong laughed: "But I want to see you!"
"What?" Ye Heng was a little strange, "You... have something to do with me?"
Han Tong looked around, then lowered his voice and said with a smile: "Oh, it's not all that boy from our family! I've fallen in love with a girl recently and I've been urging her!"
"oh?"
Han Yao and Ye Mingze always hang out together. Ye Heng knows very well that this is a romantic young man who hates the idea of marrying a wife and having children. Why has he suddenly changed his gender now?
Han Tong laughed at him.
"Actually, you also know this person, Mr. Ye - your niece, Ye Chutang!"
…
Dingbeihou Mansion.
The night is dark and the willow branches are above the moon.
The candlelight swayed gently, outlining a cold figure.
Lian Zhou lowered his head: "Your Majesty, the three files on General Huo's case are all here."
Shen Yanchuan raised his eyes and scanned the three files that were supposed to be sealed in Dali Temple.
Lian Zhou hesitated for a long time and couldn't help but ask:
"This case has been reviewed by the three divisions and has been concluded. Do you...really want to re-investigate?"
My dears, we have to go to the hospital early tomorrow morning. It may still be very late before we can go home for updates. Don’t wait.
