ike water.""Then wouldn't that be a situation where there's no rice to cook Just calling a butcher isn't enough, you'll also need to buy rice. Wait here, I'll go call a rice merchant over. We can weig...Feng Zhaolian was still chattering with Ye Wenyan, "After the palace banquet is over, let's go eat some delicious food. You treat me!" 。"I don't ask, I have no money." 。She firmly declined. 。Feng Zhaolian didn't mind, and she had a solution— "I'll take you to steal!" Ye Wenyan was dumbfounded again, "Steal""Yes, the North Qi palace has money, just taking away a brick would be enough for several meals..." 。"I'm not going to be a thief" 。"Then we'll just have someone pay for it!" Feng Zhaolian said with a smile, "Let your man come along..." 。"Get out! Get as far away from me as possible!" Ye Wenyan was truly furious, "Don't even think about touching my man!" 。"Then tell me, who is your man" Feng Zhao Lian leaned closer, "Tell me quickly." 。For a moment, Ye Wenjian almost thought that this Lady Guiyue was working with her mother, Mu Shi. 。This routine is so familiar, isn't it

Seeing Ye Wen speak with a wary face and remain silent, Feng Zhaolian laughed, “A-Yan, look at your expression. Am I robbing you of something”

Tell me the truth, is your husband really a painter named Qu Qinghua I've heard some things, like how people in both Jing are saying that you went drinking with Qu Qinghua on the fifteenth night of the twelfth lunar month and didn't come home afterwards, staying at the Chen Wangfu instead. 。"

Ye Wenyan ground his teeth, "Do you believe this"

"Master, of course I don't believe it. You didn't go home is true, but you definitely didn't stay at Chen Wangfu"

After all, we met in the palace. So you live there, right 。“Done, she looked again at Quan Qingcheng’s direction, “Could your husband be that emperor who hasn’t even grown his hair No wonder he’s so nervous about me taking interest in him, are you two actually together” 。"If you can't speak, just shut your mouth!" Ye Wenyan was so enraged he wanted to silence the person forever. "It wasn't Quan Qinghua, nor was it Quan Qingcheng..." 。I don't have a boyfriend, so stop gossiping about me. 。"If you don't chew, don't chew. Chewing your tongue is something only women would do. I, grandpa, disdain that kind of thing." Let me know if you have any other translations you'd like me to help with!。However, Ah-Yan, I have to remind you, if you've fallen for that young emperor who hasn't even grown his hair properly, then that's fine. But if you've developed feelings for someone like the power-hungry Qing painter, well, that's not okay. 。That person's mind is too heavy, no one knows what he thinks about all day long. 。When we returned to the moon before, there was someone else. He was the Fourth Prince of Northern Qi. You can't look into his eyes, if you don't look into his eyes, you might think this person is quite good, with a kind of ethereal aura surrounding him. 。But you mustn't ever look into his eyes, because they're like ice holes. One glance and you could fall right in and freeze to death. 。" After saying that, he shivered quite appropriately. " 。After trembling, he still felt unsatisfied and pointed at Ye Chu Lian again, "That's your family's daughter, right Look, her eyes are about to fall onto Quan Qing Hua's paintings. This isn't good..." 。If you're still on good terms with that sister, try to convince her to stay away from Quan Qinghua. He's a bad influence. 。" " Night Wen analyzed: “Didn’t you guys mess with Gui Yue How did such a good person become like this after you sent him away” “No, don’t be ridiculous!” Feng Zhao Lian said that Gui Yue wasn't to blame for this, “Gui Yue was really good to him, I don't know where he got the idea to do this. Anyway, he just gets worse year by year.” 。"Are you worrying about the Fourth Prince being remembered by me and my sister Could it be that you, Fei Zhaolian, have a liking for him""Me" Fei Zhaolian looked as if she had seen a ghost. "I like him In my life, even if I shaved my head to become a Buddhist monk, I would never look at that ice cube!" Even if you shaved your head, you wouldn't become a monk, you'd have to be a nun" 。"Ye Wen corrected her, "Also, don't always call me 'grandfather.' Don't you know if you're male or female"

"I really don't know..." Feng Zhaolian sighed, "I have a woman's body but a man's heart, Grandpa. It's truly agonizing..." 。“

Yè Wēn Yán’s gossipy heart was instantly piqued: “That being the case, you should like girls, right Why do you still like guys What's your psychology Come out, I won't discriminate against you” 。" You've been bad, Ayan. I don't want to talk to you anymore. 。Anyway, I'm asking you to keep this in mind and help me find out. 。Besides, don't leave after the palace banquet ends, let's go eat some good food. I'm going back to my seat now!"

Feng Zhaolian was about to leave but hadn't even gotten up when she heard the envoy from Guiyue at the opposite end of the banquet table speak – "Your Majesty, to be honest, this time our Guiyue nation came for the Sixth Palace..." 。At the crucial moment, Emperor Gao of Northern Qi was still alive. We all believed that the crown prince would be the sixth prince in the future, but we never expected that Emperor Gao of Northern Qi would suddenly pass away, and it turned out to be the seventh prince you who ascended the throne. 。So our family ties can only change along with the times, from Your Highness to You. 。“

Ye Wenyan frowned, “How much fake wine did your emissary drink! He’s only danced three or four dances on stage and already started rambling”

Feng Zhaolian expressed her helplessness and directly shouted, "What's all the fuss about When he came, he was just here to send greetings for his brother emperor. It was you guys who decided to come to the capital and changed your mind, making up this marriage arrangement.”

A person should be honest, but Hu Badao is not a good example. 。She didn't seem to be thinking much at this point, perhaps finding that sitting with one leg crossed for too long was tiring. So she simply lifted one foot and stepped onto Ye Wenyan's chair. 。Ye Wen moved to the side, making room for her. At the same time, he had to admire this Princess Zhaolian, because he also wanted to put his feet up and take a rest. That posture was really comfortable. 。 But she still didn't restrain Zhao Lian! The words of the envoy of Guiyue also came back: "Your Highness, this is the meaning of the Lord." 。" Whatever he means, I don't feel like it. You can get married if you want to, but I won't. " 。” The envoy returning to the moon almost ran out of breath. What a grown man, marrying what Empress Yu looked at this scene and also had some thoughts. She remembered that Ye Wen had reminded her earlier that Gu Yue's mind was not very good, so she should never agree to this marriage. 。It seems like Night Four Sister really wasn't lying. This Lady Gui Yue's brain is indeed a bit off, or else she wouldn't first be squatting on the ground studying bricks and now even offending her own people. If she had a decent head on her shoulders, she wouldn't do such things. 。Yes, there's also a grandfather who calls himself "grandfather" all the time. What's the point of a handsome girl saying thatSo Empress Yu spoke up: “A marriage alliance between two countries also depends on fate. Since Princess Zhaolian has no fate with the emperor, then we shouldn't force it anymore!”Her words made many people below murmur in agreement. 。Because Empress Dowager Yu has always been low-key and never expressed her opinion on anything, what's going on todayEven Empress Dowager Li looked over at her, slightly frowning, wondering what she was thinking. 。The Imperial Consort returning to the moon was somewhat awkward and unwilling, because the Empress who rejected them had once only been a concubine. 。The royal family ranks by seniority. Although she is now the Empress Dowager, she has been a concubine for many years. How can she defy the arranged marriage just because she's turned over a new leafSo the envoy went to see the Regent King. After some thought, he said: “Marriage between two countries is a national matter, and national matters are the concern of the previous dynasty. The Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace should understand that concubines cannot participate in politics.” 。" The Empress Dowager frowned and replied, "The Emperor taking a concubine is also a family matter. Even if it's just taking a concubine, even if it's crowning an empress, as the Emperor's biological mother, I have the right to inquire about it." 。Furthermore, throughout history, emperors have always chosen their consorts through the management of the imperial harem. There has never been a precedent of previous dynasties interfering in this matter. How could the regent possibly claim that the Empress was usurping power

"That is not true..."

"Qian sighed, “If it's only a selection of wives within the capital, then it would be a family affair. The Empress Dowager would naturally be in charge.” 。Since this involves two countries and their families, it's beyond the Empress Dowager's jurisdiction to interfere. 。Empress Dowager Yu said no more, for the Crown Prince was right. The alliance between the two countries was a matter of state, and she could not say too much about it. 。

Surely he can't marry a princess who's mentally unstable...

She turned her gaze to Ye Wenyan, but saw him leaning back in his chair, head tilted upward, legs crossed. While not as blatant as Princess Zhaolian, who had one foot practically on top of a man, her demeanor was also quite unrestrained, nothing to write home about.

Then she thought that maybe Princess Zhaolian was intelligent, just a bit too straightforward. But this straightforwardness was somewhat similar to Ye Wenyan's, so in this regard, it wouldn't be bad if her son took this princess as his wife. 。Ye Wen didn't know what Empress Yu was thinking. She felt a bit tired after sitting for so long, and with Feng Zhaolian beside her, always affecting her, she forgot about the strict etiquette of ancient times, that women should stand properly and sit gracefully. 。She was wondering, what were the Moon Returning Envoy and the Regent King playing at Was the Regent King really so eager to make this marriage happen If it did, it would mean that Quan Qingcheng had Moon Returning as a backer. If he wanted to depose the new Emperor and reinstate the Sixth Prince in the future, Moon Returning wouldn't allow it. 。What are the benefits of this in terms of power

Just as he was thinking, the emissary from Guiyue spoke again: “May I ask the Empress Dowager Xi, if it were Sixth Prince sitting on the Dragon Throne this time, would you be willing to facilitate a marriage alliance between Guiyue and Beqi”

Empress Dowager Li smiled: “An alliance between two countries has been a tradition for centuries, naturally, I am agreeable” 。“Alas, it's a pity,” sighed the Envoy to the Moon. “If Your Majesty’s birth mother were you, you would be in charge now.” 。However, it was widely known that the previous emperor of Northern Qi had always wished to emulate his predecessor and pass the throne to his eldest son. 。"But His Highness the Sixth Prince was seriously injured at that time." 。"Now isn't it better" "It's too late even if it is good now." 。"I don't know what kind of rules you Northern Qi people have, but in our Gu Yue, matters as important as the throne are extremely particular. 。Generally, after passing the age of knowing their destiny, emperors would write a decree of succession and place it in a secret location. 。This way, even if I suddenly pass away, there won't be any trouble. 。Just like the current monarch of our country, who is the designated successor as specified in the imperial edict. 。"I wonder if there's an imperial edict about the succession in Northern Qi" Ye Wen smiled, "So you were waiting here all along!"ll him, so after beating him for a while, she stopped and went back to standing behind Ye Wen. 。 Quan Qingcheng sidled up to her and whispered, “Pei’er, you did a great job!” Zhuier gave him a si...
