Chapter 238 - Undercurrent

Chapter 238: Undercurrent

” Sister Yaoyao, look, that’s brother Chunyu.Brother Chunyu looks handsome in his safeguard uniform ...” Ruan pulled Xia Chunyu’s Ye Jiayao’s sleeve quickly.

Women were vain, more or less. Such a handsome man was her husband. She was very happy, and inevitably she was a little proud.

Soon Ye Jiayao saw the crown prince again. There were several other people wearing embroidered robes beside the prince, presumably the princes.

Ruan whispered in her ear: ” Look at the highness Yu over there, who is wearing a purple and gold embroidered robe and has an ice-like face. Every time I see serious face, I hate him.”

Highness Yu was also the third prince. The title of the prince was given together with the imperial decree of marriage.

Heard that it was Highness Yu, Ye Jiayao couldn’t help looking at a few more eyes. The Highness Yu and?crown prince were not of the same type at all. The crown prince was warm and easy-going. He was gentle and approachable from inside to outside.Highness Yu, however, was born with handsome eyebrows, but was unsmiling. The appearance is more royal and strong. He was even more like a crown prince than the crown prince.

Listen from Chunyu, Highness Yu had accumulated a lot of military accomplishments, had some prestige in the minds of military attache and politics officers. There was also an?minister who supported him and gradually drew closer to the crown prince’s power.

Ah, the imperial checks and balances let the princes consume each other. Support the weak prince, press that strong prince,?which is a torture of the government officers. They had tried their best to guess the emperor’s meaning, racking their brains and trying their best to support the people who finally won the battle for power.

Think like this, Jing’ an marquis house’s impartiality was simple. No matter who sat on the dragon chair in the future, he would not suffer if he did not get the favour of the dragon chair, but ... pure ministers were not suitable either. Especially, Chunyu and Helian Xuan had a deep friendship, and she was also the adoptive daughter of Helian Mansion. Once the crown prince was weak and involved Helian Mansion, can Chunyu just sit back and ignore?If it was she,she can’t do it .

Xia Chunyu seemed to find the special look upstairs and looked up and smiled, saying hello.

Immediately, the emperor queen got off and moved in, crowding into the Wanghu building. Soon, the Wanghu building was packed to people.

Little Jing and Yide princess royal came late, Ye Jiayao discovered them at the first time. When she looked back, she saw the sad look in Ruan’s eyes and was looking at little Jing. Ye Jiayao had to swallow the words reached her mouth abruptly.

Little Jing looked up and looked at her.He did nothing but send his mother to the fifth floor.He didn’t mean to come over to say hello. Ruan had already made a engagement. He must avoid suspicion. If he didn’t say hello, he just took a second look. It was a sin in the eyes of those bad person.

Ye Jiayao looked Ruan was even more lonely, so she had to coax her to divert her attention.

” Ruan, there will be betting later, oh, you can bet the you think will win.”

” Ah? But I don’t even know. ” Ruan’s response was somewhat slow.

” You could bet with me later.” Ye Jiayao laughed. Deng Haichuan had already collected intelligence. Which teams were the strongest and they knew best.

Ye Jiayao couldn’t help thinking of Zhao Qixuan and Su Yi again. Zhao Qixuan liked this kind of excitement best. I didn’t know if they also have dragon boat races at the south Yue border.

” Ruan, in your hometown, how did you spend the dragon boat festival?”

” We had the dragon boat festival there too, but it wasn’t so grand ...” Ruan introduced the custom of her hometown, and the melancholy gradually faded away.

” Princess Ruan, Mrs Xia.” Suddenly there was a slightly chilly voice in her ear, interrupting the conversation between the two.

Ye Jiayao and Ruan turned their heads and looked. The interrupter?turned out to be Highness Yu. Ye Jiayao hastily stand up and saluted: “My royal highness Yu.”

The title of this highness Yu,

king Yu smiled: ” Mrs. Xia does not need to be courteous. This king has given orders to invite princess Ruan and Mrs. Xia.”

” Order?” Ye Jiayao slightly stunned.

Highness Yu said: ” The empress tasted the cakes sent by lady Xia and praised them. Knowing that princess Ruan was also helped, he asked the you two to go upstairs and have a talk.”

Queen had invited, naturally, she want to go.

The two immediately followed Highness Yu to the fifth floor.

The emperor’s queen was presented first, followed by concubine Shu from the other side.

The emperor also took care of the Ruan before he said to Ye Jiayao with mirth: ” Jinxuan, I haven’t seen you for a while, produced so many delicious food.”

Ye Jiayao said with a smile: ” You know, the emperor, the only skill of me was this.”

The emperor smiled: ” If you can use this skill to the fullest, it will be extremely great.”

The queen smiled slightly: ” This fresh cake was unique, tender and refreshing, full of fragrant flowers. I never knew that this petal could be used to make food.”

Ye Jiayao replied, ” This is a snack from princess Ruan’s hometown. Hearing it fresh, I asked the princess how she made and studied that. It was now the season of roses. Therefore, we use rose petals as filling. This fresh cake is not only delicious, but also has the efficiency of promoting blood circulation and regulating vital essence, calming the liver and detoxifying. It was a good beauty product.”

What women care about most was beauty. After hearing what Ye Jiayao said, everyone was paying more and more attention to this little flower cake.

” I didn’t expect south Yue has such delicious snacks,” said the queen.

Ruan smiled and said, ” Empress, there were many delicious things over there, but there were still not more than Jinling. Otherwise, I will write to my father and ask him to send a chef?However, it seems that sister Jinxuan?can do anything. If she was told how to do that, she can do even more truly than south Yue. ”

” I’m not that great,” said Ye Jiayao with a smile and modesty.

Concubine Shu looked at Ye Jiayao quickly, and her eyes flashed a vague look.

I heard that Ruan and Chunyu’s wife Ye Jinxuan had made good friends. I didn’t think they had been so good that they all called each other sisters. The attitude of the Helian family had always been clear, but Jing’ an marquis house never said anything. However, Xia Chunyu and Helian Xuan were brothers and sisters. It was known to all that Ye Jinxuan was regarded as a granddaughter by the old princess. It was very difficult to guarantee whether Xia Chunyu would fall to the crown prince as a result.

But now that Highness Yu was employing people, it was inevitable that Xia Chunyu, such a talented person, will give a fight , and Ruan will soon become princess Yu. It was a good thing that she and Ye Jinxuan make good friends, even if they cannot fight for it, it was also good to keep Xia Chunyu neutral.

The queen’s eyebrows puckered slightly and in her mind naturally gave some thought.

She didn’t mind Ye Jinxuan making good friends with Ruan, and Ye Jinxuan also had friendship with her crown princess. In addition, Ye Jinxuan was also the adopted granddaughter of the old princess. It was absolutely impossible for Ye Jinxuan to fall back to Highness Yu’s side. Perhaps, her relationship with Ruan could be used in the future.

At this moment, the two most distinguished women in Huaisong had their own thoughts, which other people did not know. Ye Jiayao also didn’t expect that at the moment just now, her weight in the hearts of the queen and concubine Shu had changed.

The emperor said happily, ” Today you have offered so many snacks. Besides, how can I reward you since everyone is happy?”

” The emperor, this is a little gift of me. As long as the emperor queen and the ladies like it, it is the highest reward for me,” Ye Jiayao said with a smile.

Ye Jiayao was really not humble. Her aim was this. Although she spent a lot of money today, it was simply not worth mentioning compared with the resulting income.

” What I admire is your intention, do you want me to eat you for free?” Wei Zhong, write it down. After returning to the palace, rewarded the second mistress of Jing’ an marquis house with five dou?pearl and three hundred gold .”

Ye Jiayao half jokingly said, ” Emperor, if you really want to reward me, it would be nice of a little. If you give them such a generous reward, they will feel guilty and have to make more delicious food to honor the emperor.”

The emperor burst out laughing: ” That’s what I meant.”

The queen smiled: ” The emperor’s grace is counted. I like these cakes you made very much, and I value your minds more.”

As she spoke, the queen took off a pair of jade bracelets on her wrist and gave them to Ruan and Ye Jiayao.

The jade bracelet was full-bodied with water embellish and emerald green, and its tentacles were slightly cool. It was the finest jade and was extremely precious. So long, Ye Jiayao was really a little uneasy, but she dared not refuse to accept it. She could only kneel down with Ruan and gave thanks.

Concubine Shu chuckled gently: ” Since the queen has all given her rewards, the servants and concubines cannot be stingy.”

Concubine Shu also took off the two rings on her finger, one ruby to Ruan, and one emerald to Ye Jiayao.

Ye Jiayao was not happy when she received the two gifts. She felt very hot. This show of kindness always felt that there were subtle factors in it and there was a surge of undercurrent.

Eunuch asked if the dragon boat raced could begin or not.

The emperor gave a slight nodding: ” Let the crown prince beat the drum.”

He also said to Ye Jiayao and Ruan, ” You also go back to watch the dragon boat race!There will be a good show later. ”

The two retreated. When they passed the seat of Yide princess royal, Ye Jiayao specially pulled Ruan to come forward to see her.

Just now, the queen’s imperial concubine was vying for rewards. Yide already knew that. The third prince was titled with Highness Yu, and many people began to take actions, the officers also couldn’t sit, and concubine Shu was uneasy too. Jinling city had been peaceful for too long, and it was going to start to windy and rainy again.

Because Ye Jiayao was a member of her family, Yide should be polite to Ruan: ” Ruan, my ancestors often miss you and want you to come and sit in the mansion whenever you are free.”

Ruan smiled somewhat unnaturally. She liked princess royal and her ancestors very much. They were different from other people in treating her, they treating her well and always felt very kind. However, now that her identity had changed, she would soon become princess Yu. She can no longer be as casual as before.

” Well, I will come.”

Thud, thud ... the deafening sound of the drums indicated the dragon boat race was about to begin.

Ye Jiayao hurried to leave, and the two returned to their seats, staring straight ahead.

A dragon boat flew like an arrow towards the starting point.

Ruan looked at it with wide eyes and tugged at Ye Jiayao’s sleeve: “Sister Yaoyao, seriously? Was brother Chunyu standing at the head of the dragon boat?”

Ye Jiayao’s eyeball was bigger than that?Ruan’s, full of incredible expression. It was Chunyu who stood up against the wind. Although she could not see his face clearly, she could recognize his shape with one glance.

It was no wonder that the emperor said that there will be a good show later, smelly donkey, hide it so secretly!
