The slave family is not a disaster

Chapter 326 Where to Go
Ye Anran smiled awkwardly: "Miss He, you're welcome."

"Oh, yes, that's right. Since the queen mother has issued an imperial decree saying that you will be cut off from the position of princess, there is no need for me to greet you? You are not a relative of the royal family anymore." Miss He smiled, with a smile on her face. Satire.

Ye Anran was dumbfounded: "What imperial decree?"

In order not to hurt her, Xi Gongjue did not tell her about the imperial decree. If Ye Anran wanted to know that he was demoted to a concubine, he would definitely not be able to bear it.

Seeing He Jinzhu talking nonsense here, Meng Zhaoyang immediately got up, a little displeased: "Miss He, this...is my home, and Ye Anran is my friend, what do you have to say to me first? Disturb my friend directly , don't you think it's presumptuous?"

"Mr. Meng, I didn't do it on purpose. I think the princess... oh no, Miss Ye doesn't seem to know about it, but it's such a big thing that the princess is demoted to a concubine. If she doesn't know, it's not good for herself. Well, of course, as a native of Gusu, I very much welcome Miss Ye to come here as a guest, but I don’t know if she plans to stay and live now, or just stay for a while?” He Jinzhu’s words were leaking inside and out. What is Meng Zhaoyang's attitude towards Ye Anran?

Meng Zhaoyang's face darkened suddenly: "Miss He, how long does my friend live, there is no need to tell you? Please ask Miss He to recognize your identity."

"Oh, yes, I don't mean anything else. I just heard that Mr. Meng and Miss Ye were unmarried couples. Later, she got married. Now she was divorced and came back to you. It's not fair to you. I also want to You're just complaining." He Jinzhu said with a smile.

"You don't need to complain about injustice, I thank you for your kindness." Meng Zhaoyang deliberately bit the word thank you very hard.

"My lord didn't divorce me. Ms. He probably heard me wrong." Hearing this woman spreading rumors here, Ye Anran couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and retorted.

"If I didn't divorce you, [-]% would be soon. Otherwise, why would I allow the queen mother to degrade you into a concubine? Speaking of which, Miss Ye, you are quite wronged. The dignified Ye family in Yangzhou has now become someone else's concubine. , It's really pitiful." He Jinzhu seemed to have come prepared, just to stimulate Ye Anran.

Ye Anran was really a little excited: "You are talking nonsense, I won't believe it. Of course, I know better than you about our husband and wife."

"Hehe, don't believe me? Then you can just ask Mr. Meng? See what he says?" He Jinzhu seemed unwilling to give up, and said emphatically.

"Shut up, don't talk anymore." A gentle and refined person like Meng Zhaoyang was completely angered.

"Brother Meng, what she...is saying is true?" Ye Anran turned around and asked seriously.

"This...?" For a moment, Meng Zhaoyang didn't know how to answer, because if the answer was no, he was obviously deceiving An Ran, and the imperial edict had indeed been issued, but An Ran didn't know about it.

But if she answered yes directly, then she must be very sad, so Meng Zhaoyang was in a dilemma...

At this time, Mrs. Meng stood up and said, "Xiaomei, Miss He is leaving, see off the guests."

"Yes, ma'am." The maid named Xiaomei came over immediately, made a gesture of please to He Jinzhu, and then said bluntly: "Miss He, please?"

He Jinzhu saw that Mr. Meng's mother didn't want to see him, so he didn't stay any longer. He turned around, turned and walked out.

Afterwards, Mrs. Meng came over and said with a kind smile: "An Ran, don't be such a crazy girl. This daughter of Master He has a bad reputation in Gusu. She is spoiled and spoiled. Not many people like her, so her words are naturally untrustworthy." of."

But Ye Anran can feel that this matter may not be fake...

"Auntie, you don't need to comfort me, I can tell the truth from the fake." Then, she asked Meng Zhaoyang seriously again: "Brother Meng, what are you saying, is it true or not?"

Although Ye Anran didn't know Meng Zhaoyang for a long time, she understood Meng Zhaoyang's temperament quite well. He was the kind of person who never said anything different and would never lie to himself.

Meng Zhaoyang thought about it, gritted his teeth, and said word by word: "An Ran, what she said is true, the queen mother...has indeed issued an imperial edict."

Ye Anran staggered and took two steps back, her face was a bit embarrassed: "But why didn't anyone tell me? Why didn't the prince tell me?"

Meng Zhaoyang said slowly: "Perhaps... the prince is afraid of your sadness, so he can't bear to say, this time the prince called you here, probably to deal with this matter, and then take you back. I believe that King Rui'an is an upright man , I will not wrong you."

"Having said that, but... we are a husband and wife, and now I have become a concubine, I really..." Ye Anran didn't finish the following words, but anyone could see that she was extremely sad .

"Anran, don't think so much, I've heard from Zhaoyang that Lord Rui'an treats you well, you have to trust him." Because Mrs. Meng has a good relationship with Ye Anran's mother, she loves her house and comforts Ye Anran.

"Auntie, Brother Meng, I... feel a little uncomfortable, I'll step back and rest for a while, excuse me." Ye Anran's complexion was not very good, and after saying hello, she left the front hall.

"Anran...?" Meng Zhaoyang wanted to stop her, but he never had the courage to speak. He only muttered to himself after Anran had left.

After Ye Anran left, only mother and son were left in the front hall, Madam Meng suddenly asked, "Zhaoyang, have you never forgotten Anran?"

"Mother, why do you ask like that?" Meng Zhaoyang looked back at his mother in astonishment.

"From the way you looked at her, mother saw a special feeling. When the Ye family broke the engagement, you, who never drank, got drunk. I knew there was something in it. This time, after An Ran came, look at her. Your eyes are full of tenderness, silly child, you are mother's son, how can mother not understand you?" Mrs. Meng said with a sigh.

Meng Zhaoyang lowered his head slowly: "Mother, I like An Ran...it's been a long time."

"Hey...God's will trick people, you should be a couple, An Ran's mother and I love sisters, we have already agreed, but we didn't expect so many accidents to happen, An Ran is indeed a good boy, and you It's a good match too, but you don't have that fate." Madam Meng also seemed to feel very sorry.

"Mom, you and dad don't want me to get married, okay? I have my own ideas. Fate is not something I asked for, but it didn't come by looking for it. It was met, so please give me time. I believe it." If one day I can forget about An Ran, then I can accept other women calmly." Meng Zhaoyang knew that his parents had never persecuted him in marriage, but he also knew that they were anxious, and now they are talking ugly words in the lead , just because they are afraid that they will be forced to marry like other parents.

"Don't worry, you're old, we won't interfere with your marriage." Mrs. Meng walked out after she finished speaking. When she reached the door, she stopped suddenly and said without turning her head: "If An Ran really comes back If we don’t go to Bianjing anymore, then...you may be able to continue your relationship.”

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Meng disappeared at the door, and Meng Zhaoyang's eyes lit up with hope. He is not a villain, and he will not intentionally destroy Ye Anran's current relationship between husband and wife, but if there is any change in Bianjing, Xi Gongjue cannot come to pick Anran up Then he might really have a chance to reconnect with Ye Anran.

Meng Zhaoyang suddenly felt that his future seemed bright...

In the West Wing
Ye Anran played the piano lightly, but the sound of the piano seemed to be very chaotic, and there was no master...

"Master, stop playing and take a rest when you're tired." Xiao Rong said distressedly.

"Xiao Rong, will the lord come to pick me up?" Ye Anran stopped and couldn't help asking.

Xiao Rong smiled confidently: "Don't worry, when we leave, the prince will know from your reluctant eyes that he cares about you, so the prince will definitely come."

"But I'm very uneasy, I always feel that he won't come." Maybe it was He Jinzhu's words today that stimulated Ye Anran, so she lost her confidence.

Although the queen mother's decree demoted her to be a concubine, Jue Xigong never told her. This proves that in Jue Xigong's heart, she is not a concubine, she is still his wife.

However, now that the two are thousands of miles apart, no matter how much they miss, they can't tell...

"Master, why have you become sentimental recently? Do you miss our Rui'an Palace?" Seeing that the master's expression was not right, Xiao Rong immediately asked.

"Xiao Rong, do you know the imperial decree of the Queen Mother?" Ye Anran asked lonely.

Sure enough, Xiao Rong's eyes changed, and then he shook his head: "I don't know, what imperial decree?"

"Xiao Rong, don't lie to me, your eyes can't deceive anyone, you really know, but you never told me." Ye Anran blamed sadly.

"Master, it's not the slaves who don't tell, it's... the prince doesn't let us tell, and the prince is for your own good." Xiaorong and Xiaoguang knew about it a long time ago, but the prince leaked the news. Anyone who leaked the news to the princess will be killed. No pardon.

"Hehe, it's for my own good, isn't it?" Ye Anran felt like crying, looking at the strings of the zither, only to feel another burst of pain in his heart.

East Wing

Meng Zhaoyang was just about to change clothes and rest when he heard a knock on the door...

"Who?" Meng Zhaoyang asked alertly.

"Master, I am Songbai."

"Oh, come in." Song Bai was Meng Zhaoyang's more capable subordinate, so he must have something to do when he came so late.

"Young master, you asked me to investigate the affairs in Bianjing, and I have found out." Songbai said with a solemn expression.

"Well, what's the situation?" Meng Zhaoyang has always been a careful person. After Ye Anran came, he must investigate Xi Gongjue, otherwise Anran would come so suddenly. He was still quite worried, afraid that something would happen to Bianjing. Sure enough, his hunch was right.

"My subordinates have found out that Prince Ruian... is going to marry a new princess in seven days." Song Bai hesitated for a moment, and said slowly.

"What? Want to marry a new concubine?" Meng Zhaoyang was stunned. It's only been a few days, how come Xi Gongjue has a new love, so... what is Ye Anran?
"Yes." Songbai replied.

"Is the news accurate?" Meng Zhaoyang asked with a frown.

"Well, it's absolutely true. The imperial decree has been announced in Bianjing. I heard that the new princess is the niece of Lord Liu, Shangshu of the Ministry of War. The subordinates really haven't found out the exact name." Songbai said firmly.
