The reborn prince's wife

Chapter 225 Dongfang Hou Mansion

In the lobby of the front courtyard of the Dongfang Marquis Mansion, a handsome middle-aged man sat on the main seat, with a stern face and wisdom in his brows.

The woman sitting next to him is also extremely beautiful and well-maintained. Although she is not as beautiful as the young and beautiful woman, she is also extremely elegant. She is dressed in a luxurious lilac-colored silk sash with crane patterns, which makes her look even more beautiful. Extravagance.

On the two sides of the leaning down, sat two women in the same gorgeous clothes, and on the other side were two handsome young men, but one was smiling, and the other had deep eyebrows.

"Jing'er, go and see if your eldest brother is here." The middle-aged man is the late emperor's favorite minister Dongfang Yuan, and is also the current Lord Dongfang.

Just as Dongfang Jing was about to get up, he saw Dongfang Ye coming quickly, his face pale, his right hand habitually clenched into a fist against the corner of his mouth, and he coughed lightly, as if he was walking in a hurry, and the coughing sound also became rapid.

"You child... Didn't I tell you not to worry, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Before Dongfang Yuan could speak, the woman beside him hurried down to help Dongfang Ye sit down, Looking at his pale complexion worriedly, "Didn't you eat the snow ginseng that your father asked to bring you? Why is your complexion still so bad?"

This person is Ling Lan, the continuation of Lord Hou of the East. She is the twin sister of Lord Hou's wife Ling Yue. She became Dongfang Yuan's main wife when she was only [-] years old, so her status in the Hou's mansion is unmatched.

"Aunt Lan, I'm fine..." Dongfang Ye patted the back of her hand reassuringly. He was raised by Ling Lan since he was a child. If his father didn't want him to forget his mother, he would have called Ling Lan Aunt Lan since he was a child. Perhaps no one would believe that Mrs. Hou would treat her sister's son like her own.

"Didn't it get better a while ago? Why have you been coughing so badly recently? Didn't you get busy with getting married? Didn't you tell Aunt Lan to take care of it? Just take care of yourself." Ling Lan's eyes were filled with tears. She blushed slightly, originally she also had a child, but it died before full term, she couldn't bear the blow, and suffered a serious illness during confinement that made him infertile, so she wholeheartedly raised Dongfang Ye aldult.

"Aunt Lan, I should naturally handle my own marriage. I know my body, so it's fine." Dongfang Ye shook his head with a gentle attitude.

Seeing that he didn't cough anymore, Ling Lan sat back at Lord Hou's side in peace, but still focused on Dongfang Ye, for fear that he would feel uncomfortable again.

"Okay, Ye'er has his own measure, so don't worry about it." Dongfang Yuan said in a deep voice, and then looked at Dongfang Ye. The eldest son was weak and sick from the urine since he was a child. I don't know if it was because he lost his mother. He grew up in a medicine jar, but later he always lived in seclusion because of his poor health. His temperament was gentle and refined, but he was always less popular. He looked cool and cold with everyone, not to mention his father. He will always be gentle and distant towards Ling Lan.

Dongfang Yuan has an indescribably complex emotion towards this son. If it weren't for his birth, his mother would not have died of dystocia, but her mother would keep this son even if she died. Dongfang Ye is very like her mother, not only Their appearances are somewhat alike, and even their expressions and temperaments are extremely similar, making Dongfang Yuan not sure whether to get close or stay away.

"That's right, sister, only the young master has such a blessing that the emperor personally bestows a marriage. This is a blessing that many people can't ask for." The other woman who spoke was only about 35 or [-]. The silk gown on her body revealed a bit of beauty, which is a kind of beauty that women of this age seldom possess.

Ling Lan's eyes darkened, and her displeasure flashed across her heart. These words seemed to be flattering, but in fact they were actually belittling Dongfang Ye with his marriage partner.

That was Bai Ruoyan, the concubine of Lord Dongfang. Back then, the Bai family was also a well-known family in the capital. Bai Ruoyan had worked hard to marry Dongfang Yuan. Originally, the previous emperor had promised her to be the wife of Lord Dongfang. Unexpectedly, Dongfang Yuan was unwilling to fight against the decree. The first emperor changed the imperial decree and gave him a concubine. This matter made Bai Ruoyan brood for many years until Ling Yue passed away.

"What my sister said is true. If it weren't for the Eldest Young Master's poor health, she and the Second Young Master would be able to serve the court together. I heard that the emperor appreciates the Eldest Young Master very much. What a pity." It was Dongfang Hou who spoke at this moment. The Lord's other concubine, Shangguan Lurong, has many generals from the Shangguan family. Shangguan Lurong's father was the master who taught Dongfang Marquis martial arts. Shangguan Lurong fell in love with Dongfang Marquis at first sight. After growing up, she married Dongfang Yuan as a concubine, and later gave birth to Dongfang Jing before she was raised as a concubine.

Smart men would not participate in a war between women, especially the men in the Dongfang Hou Mansion. The four men sitting there all moved in unison, holding up their teacups and drinking tea like no one else was there.

There was no one to watch the show, and no one to join in. The three ladies stopped after saying a few words.

"How long will the second brother stay in Linyang City this time?" Dongfang Ye tilted his head and looked at Dongfang Lin who was sitting beside him.

Dongfang Lin is the most like Lord Hou. He has a kind of indifference in the officialdom, which is completely different from Dongfang Ye's indifference. He always looks like a torch, and his ice eyes are dark and deep, and it is especially frightening when he narrows his eyes slightly.

"Well, the emperor knew that my elder brother was going to get married, so he specially asked me to come back to Linyang to deal with the affairs here, and I can attend the elder brother's wedding by the way." As the servant of the Ministry of Industry, Dongfang Lin was naturally extremely busy, and it was rare for him to go home. Running around without a fixed place.

"Aren't you busy with the river repair project in Liangzhou? How is it going?" Dongfang Ye asked casually, but immediately noticed Dongfang Lin's glance, and sighed inwardly. , extremely sensitive, but one sentence has already aroused his suspicion.

"Brother doesn't care about these things." Dongfang Lin pursed his lips, seemingly puzzled.

Now it's Dongfang Jing's turn to speak: "Second brother, you don't know. The elder brother didn't care about it in the past, but it doesn't mean he won't care about it in the future. The river repair project in Liangzhou, the sister-in-law's family has spent a lot of manpower and material resources, even the emperor. Appreciation is added."

Dongfang Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, and glanced at the third younger brother beside him. He was very handsome, so it was rare for him to guess what he meant.

"Oh? The Mu family also contributed?" Dongfang Yuan suddenly asked. He has a very deep affection for Liangzhou. Liangzhou is located in a remote place, and Qingyan City stands on the south and the north. When he led the troops there When Liangzhou City drove the enemy away, when their army was besieged, it was the people of Liangzhou City who sent them life-saving food regardless of the danger. The subsequent great victory was inseparable from the people of Liangzhou City.
