The story of Princess Xiatang's counterattack

Chapter 529 Ye Lanzhen

Chapter 529 Ye Lanzhen

In the northwest corner of Prince Ning's Mansion, there is a dilapidated small courtyard. There is a copper lock on the rusty courtyard door, which locks the courtyard door tightly.

Not far away, Yinquan approached the yard slowly, went up the steps, picked out a key from a bunch of keys in his hand, and opened the copper lock.

'嗞, 嗞, 嗞acridine——'

The courtyard door was pushed open, and it could be heard from the sound that the bearings of the courtyard door had rusted.

Yinquan opened the door and walked into the courtyard. Autumn had just arrived, and the fallen leaves in the small courtyard were already thick, and the boots creaked on them.

The door of the main room in the courtyard was ajar, and the sound of chanting could be heard faintly inside, Yinquan raised his hand and knocked on the door lightly, the sound of chanting suddenly stopped.

After a while, a hoarse voice sounded from the room, as if sighing tiredly, "Come in."

Leading the spring into the interior, in the flower hall next to the main hall, in a specially opened Buddhist hall, a woman kneels on the futon, her eyes slightly closed, and her hands are twisting Buddhist beads.

"My subordinates see the princess."

'Heh' If there was a faint laugh, the corners of the woman's lips on the futon raised slightly, revealing a rather ironic smile, "Master Yinquan, you've broken the old lady."

Yinquan sighed in his heart, he was not surprised that the princess would speak like this, but he could not bear it slightly, he said softly, "Your Majesty, please go over."

Even though he deliberately lowered his tone, Yinquan could still see that after he uttered these words, the princess's body became stiff for a moment, her fingertips tightly choked on the Buddhist beads, and her whole body trembled slightly.

This is the most real fear left in a person's heart, even if it is deliberately controlled, it will still be revealed unconsciously, no matter what form it is in.

Yin Quanhou stood aside and said nothing, he was waiting for the princess to calm down, the prince had to obey orders, let alone this poor woman.

After a long while, the woman kneeling on the futon took a deep breath, and slowly opened her eyes. The almond-shaped eyes were once radiant, and she lowered her brows and smiled slightly.

However, in just five years, these eyes have no brilliance other than gray and despair, and the whole person looks lifeless and lifeless.

"Tell the prince, I only go to the living room to meet him, if not, I will kowtow to death in this Buddhist hall." Princess Ning said slowly, looking at the statue opposite, her words were full of determination.

"This subordinate, go back to the lord." Yinquan said quickly, fearing that if he slowed down, a life would be lost here.

Princess Ning closed her eyes and said nothing, still holding the Buddhist beads in her hands.

Yinquan left quickly, and locked the door when he went out. This is the death order from the prince.

After Yinquan left, Concubine Ning's eyes, which had been closed tightly, opened again, and at this moment, the apricot eyes were filled with tears.

Concubine Ning's boudoir name is Ye Lanzhen, she is the youngest daughter of Zhan Shifu Ye Binglin, and she was once a talented woman who was famous all over the capital.

Ye Lanzhen has been well-behaved and sensible since she was a child, and she is even more glamorous and charming when she grows up.

As the saying goes, there are hundreds of women in a family, let alone such a beautiful and clever woman.

The threshold of the Ye family was almost broken by the proposers.

However, Ye Lanzhen has her own ideas. If she marries someone, she should also marry someone she admires. How can she marry herself just because of a few words from a matchmaker?
Therefore, Ye Lanzhen himself made a rule that anyone who proposes a marriage must bring the portrait of the man. If it is a crooked person, stop thinking about marrying her as soon as possible.

Mother Ye pointed her forehead angrily, how can a big girl be so picky about her husband?Spread the word and still not be laughed at?
But Ye Lanzhen is eloquent, as the saying goes: A relationship is born from the heart.

If the appearance is ugly, doesn't it mean that the person's mind is not right?What's wrong with making such a choice?

Anyway, Ye Lanzhen is determined to choose her husband and son-in-law in this way. Ye's father and Ye's mother have a certain preference for this little daughter. Hearing her threaten that if she doesn't, she will never marry for the rest of her life and stay in her boudoir as an old girl all her life. Parents and mothers have to follow if they don't.

It's just that in this way, people with high family status don't have to think about it. Their status is already a bit higher than theirs, so can they use their son's portrait to let their daughters choose?

It's simply a fantasy.

But Mother Ye thought, it doesn't matter if the family is high or low, those who are lower can still treat their daughters as treasures in their hands, and she won't be offended when she gets married and has the support of her natal family.

In this way, the man's portrait entered Ye Lanzhen's boudoir like flowing water. Ye Lanzhen picked and picked in the room every day, and he couldn't pick any one pleasing to the eye from the pile of portraits.

Ye Lanzhen herself was also depressed, obviously she didn't have high demands, but why did she always feel that there was something strange about these men, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Mother Ye had to ask every day if she had seen it, and if so, she would answer it quickly to the matchmaker, otherwise it would be shameful to make people wait.

Ye Lanzhen shook her head with a bitter face, all of them were dissatisfied, and always felt that something was wrong with the people in the painting.

At this time, Ye Lanzhen's elder brother Ye Yunqing came up with an idea. Since the portrait is not eye-catching, let's meet the real person.

Mother Ye was shocked, and Ye Lanzhen was overjoyed, this is the best.

Ye Yunqing comforted his mother, he found an excuse to have a party at home, drinking tea and wine in the garden, reciting poems to fight against each other, it is a matter of elegance.

The younger sister didn't need to show up, she just took a peek at the flower window outside the courtyard, and it would not be too late to make a conclusion when someone caught her eye.

In addition, in this way, you can also test the talents of the young masters, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?
Ye Lanzhen nodded after hearing this. It's a good idea to call everyone so that she can see her face to face.

Mother Ye was a little hesitant after hearing this, is it reasonable to act like this?

However, I still tend to agree in my heart, I didn't give a definitive answer, I just asked the master.

In the end, the party for reciting poems and making pairs was held. Ye Yun Qingguang posted a famous post, calling all the sons who came to propose marriage, and the Ye family was very lively for a while.

According to the position given by Ye Yunqing, Ye Lanzhen took a look at the flower window in the garden, and instantly understood why some of the paintings faintly felt that something was wrong. Everyone is handsome and mighty, but a little fake, so she just said it's strange.

Ye Lanzhen was angry. She didn't expect that the painter had no professional ethics at all, and would paint blindly after receiving money. This was related to her marriage, how could she be so harmful? !
She angrily took the girl to find Mother Ye, and told what she saw with her own eyes, Mother Ye was also unhappy, but she still said that the appearance of a person is not important, the key is to look at the inside.

When Ye Yunqing came to report what he had heard during the day at night, it was obvious that the inside was not good.

Now Father Ye and Mother Ye are in trouble, it's fine if they didn't know before, but now that they know, naturally they can't just marry their daughter off casually.

As a result, Ye Lanzhen's marriage was delayed.
