Rebirth's Charm

Chapter 150

In the afternoon, Jia Nian went to the main room because of the four maids that Ye Xihan and Ye Xilang sent to the Hou's Mansion, "In the first month, the four of them came to the Hou's Mansion with a group of maids. It's suspicious. It's just that two of them are slightly older, over twenty, and sent to work outside the mansion, and the other two are outside the hospital."

After Xiao Xun and Yu Shaoheng successively ordered people to investigate carefully and found no suspicious people, then they can indeed be kept for their own use.

Ye Xizhao ordered Jianian to call him to the hall.

After a while, two young girls came in, with handsome looks, quick eyes and quick manners, respectful and respectful when saluting.

After Ye Xizhao looked them over, he asked them their ages and names in a harmonious voice.

Two people answered respectfully, one named Shen Xing, 17 years old, and the other named Luo Yue, 16 years old.

"Would you like to stay in my room as an errand?" Ye Xizhao asked, "On weekdays you have to do some trivial things in the house, so think about it clearly."

Shen Xing replied in a respectful voice: "The two slaves and servants were fortunately rescued by the two masters of Ye, so they survived. I swore to repay the servant for the rest of my life, but the two masters of Ye once ordered that if the two slaves sincerely repay, they will be saved." Do your best to serve Mrs.

Luoyue added from the side: "The servants and servants have learned the rules of the rich family these days, and I hope Madam will not dislike the stupidity of the servants and servants."

Ye Xizhao nodded slightly, thought for a moment, called Hsinchu and Xia He, and said to Shen Xing and Luoyue: "In the future, you will each follow Hsinchu and Xia He as errands, and take the monthly order of second-class maids. If there is something to do in the future, I will call Come talk."

Shen Xing and Luo Yueqi claimed to be thankful, with gratitude and joy in their voices.

Afterwards, Ye Xizhao asked Hsinchu and Xia He to arrange housing and clothing for the two of them.

Hsinchu and Xiahe's wedding is scheduled for this autumn. If the two newcomers are smart, they can stay for a long time in the future, otherwise they will have to find someone else.

In the evening, after a break, Ye Xizhao and Yu Shaoheng talked about the emperor's absurd behavior, and she also confided in him all the guesses she had secretly made, and finally asked: "What do you think about this matter?"

Yu Shaoheng pondered for a moment, then said: "That woman possesses unique skills."

This answer, of course, affirmed her guess.

Ye Xizhao asked again: "Do Xiao Xun and Qiao An know about this?"

"I have informed Xiao Xun."

Ye Xizhao couldn't hide his apprehension, and grabbed his arm, "I just know that precautions are not enough, how to deal with the emperor is the most important thing. Why is the emperor suspicious of Xiao Xun?"

"Don't worry about it, it's fine with us." Yu Shaoheng kissed her lips reassuringly, and said, "Xiao Xun, this man, even for my brother who has died, occasionally makes me fall into mist. The same is true for the emperor. After being rebelled, and now he is stable, the emperor will not rest easy from this, but will only become more and more suspicious of important ministers. Besides, Xiao Xun now has too many people coming and going, and because of family affairs, he is not concerned about official affairs. Slacking off and falling into the eyes of the emperor means not reporting what you know."

Ye Xizhao listened quietly, nodded in agreement, and then remembered what he had said about Xiao Xun's slacking off, and even remembered that he said that he would do his best to help, and after thinking it over, he said: "You will do your best to help Xiao Xun, Or did something like this happen -- did you not expect it, or was it unavoidable, or was it due to the emperor's suspicion?"

Yu Shaoheng smiled, "It's so easy for the emperor to send a person to the courtier's mansion. There are too many ways. Instead of taking precautions, it's better to accept it calmly. Just wait and see what happens in the future."

"Xiao Xun and Qiao An know it well."

After saying this, the two hugged each other and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Ye Xizhao woke up, feeling thirsty, went outside to pour a glass of water, and when he finished drinking and turned back to the dormitory, he heard Yu Shaoheng's anxious low voice calling: "Xizhao!"

She quickly walked to the bed and held his hand that was looking for her, "I'm here, I'm here. What's the matter?"

Yu Shaoheng, who was trapped in a dream, suddenly woke up at this time, sat up, and after a short period of confusion, he took her into his arms and said in a low voice, "I was in a dream just now, and you abandoned me." He exhaled, "Fortunately, it's just a dream."

Ye Xizhao's body froze, and then, the arm that called his shoulder and neck increased strength, and buried his cheek on his shoulder, "No, no."

This situation is no surprise to her.Twice, he anxiously called her name in his sleep, ordered her not to leave if something happened, and held her tighter in his arms.

And these things all happened after she had a happy pulse.

She had been unable to walk out of some shadows before.After he was happy with her, her difficult childbirth last time became his shadow. He didn't dare to reveal anything during the day, but it became a nightmare at night.

She endured the soreness in her eyes, took a slow breath, and said softly, "Go to sleep."

"Ah."

She went back to lie down beside him.

He put one arm through her neck and took her hand with the other.

The next day, Mother Yao came to send an interrogation, and the second aunt died of illness early in the morning, and then said: "The second aunt told my wife yesterday evening: The eldest lady took care of her in every possible way during her life, and her kindness is the most important. The aunt also said that the eldest lady can do whatever she wants." Don't worry, she and the second master belong to the Ye family, and they will never do anything to betray the Ye family." Speaking of this, the corners of his eyes were slightly wet because of all kinds of emotions, "Before the servant comes, the second master told the slave to tell: please Miss is resting at home, he is fine and will be fine."

Ye Xizhao was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Understood."

Yao's mother said again: "Master Xiang and Madam also said that they should bury Second Aunt as generously as possible."

"That's good." Ye Xizhao urged, "Tell Madam, don't worry about this matter, there are Prime Ministers and uncles in the outer courtyard."

"Slaves, please remember."

After Yao's mother left, Ye Xizhao fell into a daze, and before he had time to express his true feelings, he heard about the affairs of the court——the emperor deposed the right of the five armies' governor's office to take charge of military orders and dispatch troops. The emperor himself is in charge.

If Ye Xizhao remembers correctly, Qiao Yunian and Yu Shaoheng recommended the left and right governors of the five armies to the emperor together.

It happened yesterday that Xiao Xun was given a concubine, and this happened again today...

It seems that they are all aimed at Xiao Xun, but when the emperor made these decisions, was he really just a little jealous of Yu Shaoheng?
At noon, Yu Shaoheng came back.

At the dinner table, the husband and wife took turns feeding Miss Xin.After the meal, he coaxed Sister Xin to take a nap.Afterwards, Ye Xizhao took Yu Shaoheng's hand, "Come with me for a walk in the back garden?"

"No shortage?"

"Go to bed later."

"it is good."

It's another spring, and the peach blossoms in the back garden are still blooming softly and pleasing to the eye.

When passing by the lotus, Ye Xizhao smiled and said, "This year...."

Yu Shaoheng took the words in a soft voice: "I won't come to live here this year. Sister Xin is just being mischievous and ignorant, so she shouldn't get too close to the water."

Ye Xizhao's eyes were filled with endless tenderness, "Looking at you, I only need to start my conversation in the future."

Yu Shaoheng gave a faint smile, and then asked: "Do you know about the Prime Minister's Mansion and the court?"

"En." Ye Xizhao stared sideways at him.

Yu Shaoheng met her gaze, "I don't need to say anything about the matter of the Prime Minister's mansion. I actually don't want you to know about the affairs of the court, but now I can't hide anything from you."

Ye Xizhao smiled softly: "Who told you to teach me so much?"

"How did I know you would have learned everything."

Ye Xizhao ordered the maid who accompanied him to stop, walked with him for a while, and then asked the most important thing: "Tell me, does the emperor suspect you as well?" He had already answered her vaguely, but She still needs a definite answer.

Yu Shaoheng nodded slightly.

"But why does he suspect you and Xiao Xun? If you..." She lowered her voice when she said this, "If you have the intention to be courtiers, you still have to wait until now?"

"One moment and another moment." Yu Shaoheng still had a smile on his lips, but his eyes became cold because of the words, "The so-called companionship is like companionship with a tiger, that's what it is." Afterwards, a little bit of embarrassment appeared, "How to plan in the future... .”

"We want to see Shaoyun." Ye Xizhao spoke out for him, "Shaoyun entered the palace for the sake of the Marquis, and we should plan for her heart."

Yu Shaoheng's eyes were touched by her understanding and support, and also apologetic, "I always want you to be carefree, but I can't always do it."

Ye Xizhao sighed sincerely: "If there is no trouble in the world, it would not be called the world."

"Indeed."

Walking to the bamboo forest, Ye Xizhao walked slowly to the seat next to the round table by the forest.

The little maid who was in charge of taking care of the bamboo grove saw her, and hurried over. After saluting, she asked if she wanted some refreshments. Seeing the two of them waved their hands at the same time, she quietly retreated to a distance.

Yu Shaoheng leisurely watched the winding scenery of the bamboo forest for a moment, and asked her, "Do you have something to say to me?"

Ye Xizhao smiled and asked back: "You can see it? Then you can't see it, what do I want to tell you?"

"Don't ask if you can tell." Yu Shaoheng spread his hands on the round table.

Ye Xizhao put his hand in his, and then said: "I have had joy twice, but you have mixed joy and sorrow."

"..." Yu Shaoheng was a little at a loss for a moment, and lowered his eyelids before saying, "How could that be?"

Ye Xizhao scratched his palm with his fingers, and his expression became a little mischievous, "Actually, I also get upset occasionally——what if this child in my stomach is born as a daughter? What's more, this child is I forced it, and my body became weak again, so what, do I have to repeat this experience."

Following her words, Yu Shaoheng's eyes darkened.What he was most afraid of was that these assumptions of hers would become reality, that she would still be unwilling and unable to bear this shortcoming.

He stared at her.

For the first time, she saw fragility and helplessness in his eyes.

"Xi Zhao," his clear voice was filled with too much worry and sentimentality, "on Mu Mu Island, I may have taught you many things, but the most important point, I failed to let you understand... .”

Ye Xizhao smiled at him, "I already understand that the most important thing is to care for those who care for me and live a safe and happy life."

She understands this... Yu Shaoheng doesn't know what to say.

Ye Xizhao's voice became very calm and slow, "For me, not being able to conceive any more children is different from not being able to conceive a man. They are two different things." She told him frankly, "The former is a glimmer of hope. Don’t you know? I’m not reconciled. Sister Xin is a boy, and I’m not reconciled. I don’t want my child to grow up alone, and I won’t have a single mother to support me in the future—you should be better than me I understand how important brotherhood is.”

Hearing this, Yu Shaoheng vaguely guessed her heart, his starry eyes were brightened, and there was a little hope in his eyes.

Ye Xizhao was infected by his change, and the corners of his lips rose slightly, "It's been so long, how have you treated me? If I still have a little disbelief, I really don't deserve your treatment like this. But I can't treat you like this because of your attitude. Just give up fighting for that glimmer of hope, I will always give it a try. I also know that my health is not good, so I won’t take risks over and over again for the sake of my heirs, causing you to worry and even have nightmares.”

It turned out that she knew everything, she understood what his fear was, and that was why she had talked to him about it openly.

Ye Xizhao's voice became very soft and soft: "I know enough is enough. After the second child is born, whether it is a son or a daughter, it will be your last child. As for the others, you need to plan. I have tried my best. , Heaven fails to fulfill one's wishes, and no one can do anything about it. But if I don't try my best, I can't forgive myself."

A relieved and moved smile spread across his lips.He wanted to hug her very much, but now he could only hold her hand tightly. When he asked, his voice was a little hoarse: "The truth?"

"To be honest." Ye Xizhao was teasing him, and he was also laughing at himself, "Is it because I was frightened when your teacher arrived in the capital? At that time, I was depressed and negative, and my body was uncomfortable. You got into a dead end. Since you came back, the knot in your heart has been slowly opened, and now, if you do everything with your heart and no regrets, you will feel at ease."

Yu Shaoheng really relaxed, "That's right."

"Actually, it's enough to be with you safely and not to worry you." Ye Xizhao spoke very softly.

A few days later, Yu Shaoheng told Ye Xizhao that the Yu Mansion and Xiao Mansion would be as close as before.

What happened at the same time was that Xiao Xun changed back to the unkind leader of the secret guards, excluding Yu Shaoheng, Ye Shuxuan, and father-in-law Qiao Yunian, and refused anyone to come to the door.

What happened next was that Yu Shaoheng and Qiao Yunian began to communicate frequently, exchanging letters with the big officials and generals who held heavy troops in various places.

In the end, it was counted as an abnormal thing, that King Kang had occasional contacts with Qin Anhuai and Luo Yuanhua.

Therefore, in the eyes of the emperor, none of these important court officials could be trusted.

Ye Xizhao knew that when Yu Shaoheng and Xiao Xun made these decisions, they must have asked Yu Shaoyun.Needless to say Yu Shaoyun's attitude, the successive turmoil in the court has already explained everything.

Ye Xizhao's only worry was one thing - because the first three months were crucial, Mrs. Tai didn't want her to go anywhere except to walk around in the courtyard.

This is the kindness of the old man, Ye Xizhao is naturally full of gratitude, but just in time like this, he misses Qiao An, and even more misses Yu Shaoyun who is in the palace.

It is impossible to enter the palace in the short term, and I can only order someone to invite Qiao An to speak.

After Qiao An heard the news, she came over that day, and said with an apologetic smile as soon as she entered the door: "I should have come here a long time ago, but I have been busy with arranging the newcomer, so it is only now that I am at ease."

Ye Xizhao nodded understandingly and smiled, "I know that too, otherwise I wouldn't have waited until now before ordering someone to invite you."

Qiao An sat next to Ye Xizhao, patted her abdomen, and said with a smile: "I listen to the chatter of the stable woman and the doctor woman on weekdays, and I know a lot of things. Your child must be a son. Think about your mother Or Mrs. Tai will know. Many of these sons and daughters follow the previous generation, but the order is different."

"It's not in shape." Ye Xizhao was provoked into a straight smile, "Don't talk about these useless things, tell me how your day is going. Didn't you get upset because of that concubine?"

"No. At the beginning, my jaw dropped in shock. I couldn't figure out how the emperor would do such absurd things. Afterwards, I discussed with Xiao Xun how to get that woman out of the house. It was interesting."

Qiao An took a sip of tea, moistened her throat before continuing, "Fortunately, my sister believes in Buddhism, and I also go to the temple on the first and fifteenth day of every lunar month. It’s useful. Today I invited a teacher to go to my house to look at Feng Shui, and showed Brother Yu’s horoscope. The teacher said that the woman and Brother Yu’s horoscope are incompatible. gone."

Ye Xizhao couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Qiao An also smiled all over her face, "The life of the person bestowed by the emperor is precious; our brother Yu's safety must also be taken into account—that's how it is, today I sent the woman to another hospital, and gave her rich clothes and food , a down-to-earth and diligent servant, so that no one can say that we have treated her badly."

Ye Xizhao breathed a sigh of relief for her, "It's good to send someone out, otherwise you won't have a peaceful life."

Qiao An nodded, and then his smile gradually slowed down, "This matter is now a small matter. The big thing is that these men are at odds with the emperor. Although Qin Anhuai and Luo Yuanhua were dragged into the water, I still don't know what to do. Practical."

Ye Xizhao sighed, "Who isn't?"

Don't even think about it, the emperor must hate Yu Shaoheng and Xiao Xun now.

If Yu Shaoheng hadn't told her that Yu Shaoyun was safe and sound in the palace, and even lived a more comfortable life than before, she would have been in fear every day.
