Chapter 354
"Even if you are the emperor's own brother, it is impossible to influence his thoughts, not to mention that now that the queen mother is suppressing him, it is not up to the emperor alone to decide. I appreciate your kindness, will it work?" Ye Anran sighed , Sometimes Nishinomiya Nishiki's thinking is too naive, so thinking about problems is so simple.

"That's right, it's really troublesome, and my second brother is too. Wouldn't it be good to be with you? Why did you suddenly marry that Liu Qingqing? I'm so mad." From Nishinomiya Jin's point of view, he is already used to Nishinomiya. Jue and Ye Anran were together, so after the two of them separated, Xi Gongjin was still not used to it, and she still called Ye Anran's second sister-in-law.

"I'm afraid only Xi Gongjue is clear about this matter. Let go of the past. I won't be obsessed with him. Well, if you have nothing to do, go back early. This is not the palace after all. The harem Importantly, you are a prince, so it is inconvenient to stay here for a long time." Ye Anran has always been more considerate, but he has not mentioned a word about the grievances between himself and Jue Xigong.

"Alright, then I'll go first, sister-in-law, take care of yourself." Nishinomiya Jin got up and said.

"Well, Xiao Rong, send King Heng off." Ye Anran then ordered.

Xiao Rong walked in shyly, nodded: "Yes."

"Let's go, sister Rong'er, take me out." Nishinomiya Jin said jokingly.

Xiao Rong immediately blushed half of his face, Ye Anran looked at the backs of them both going out, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.

However, this idea is still very vague and has not yet taken shape, so I don't plan to consider it for the time being.

Imperial study room

Looking at the whole game of Go, the emperor praised: "Gao Feng, do you know? She is really a rare and strange woman, who can solve the puzzle set by me. That's not to mention, and she even knows how to play the game of Qimen Dunjia." .”

"Your Majesty, sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing for a woman to be too perfect. Ye Anran took the initiative to enter the palace and approach you. You are the most aware of this matter. My subordinates advise the Emperor to keep calm, otherwise I am afraid that in the future, I will become more and more serious." It gets deeper and deeper." Haifeng has followed the emperor for many years, so naturally he doesn't want to see the emperor sink to this point because of a woman.

"Hifeng, I understand everything you told me now, and I understand everything, but it's a pity...it's too late, I've already pulled myself out for no reason, now as long as I think of her every frown and smile, I feel that I have no regrets in this life." The emperor sighed.

Gale was silent...

He knew that what the emperor said was the truth, and that the emperor's love for Ye Anran was almost lawless.

He was about to go to the sky and pick off the stars and the moon for her. This kind of thought was something that the emperor had never done to any woman before.

Tingfeng Pavilion

Ye Anran was dressed in lavender tulle, sitting here enjoying the beautiful scenery of the back garden. Although she is only a small noble person now, she made all the eunuchs and maids in the harem talk about it, because everyone was afraid of accidentally offending Ye Anran , will suffer.

"Xiao Rong, go and see what the lady in the palace below is holding?" Ye Anran saw a lady in the palace walking by, holding a teapot in her hand.

"it is good."

Xiao Rong nodded her head, walked down the stairs, and called the little maid up to question Ye Anran.

"Slave, please...greetings, nobleman." The little maid seemed to be very afraid of Ye Anran, she was too frightened to raise her head, and her voice trembled incomparably.

"Which palace are you from?" Ye Anran asked casually.

"In the case of the nobleman, the servant... the servant is a maid from Qixia Palace." The little maid replied stammeringly.

"Oh, Qixia Palace, Wang Guifei's people." Ye Anran sighed while fiddling with her fingers.

"Returning to the nobleman, the slaves are the ones serving by the concubine Wang Guifei's side."

"Well, okay, what are you carrying? Is it medicine for Concubine Wang?" Ye Anran asked because the entire harem knew that Concubine Wang was in poor health and was taking herbal medicine all year round.

"Returning to the nobleman, no, this is not herbal medicine, but tea."

"Oh? Tea? Has your concubine changed her taste? She even started drinking tea?" Ye Anran asked curiously.

"No, Your Majesty, this tea was brought from Luoyang and arrived in Bianjing this morning. It is the tea that Master Wang gave our master to taste."

"The Wang family in Luoyang? Why is the Wang family also in the tea business? Aren't they in the drugstore?" Ye Anran seemed to vaguely remember that the Wang family was not in this business. Except for the Ye family, it seemed that no one in the other three big families did it. Tea, the reason why the four major families are prosperous is because each family has its own huge family business. The Ye family in Yangzhou is in tea, the Wang family in Luoyang is in medicine, the Li family in Shangdu is in jewelry, and the Meng family in Gusu is in money. , the four families did not conflict at all, but now, the Luoyang Wang family suddenly intervened in tea, which made Ye Anran feel extremely uncomfortable listening.

"Yes, I heard from the master that Master Wang has started to cultivate many new varieties of tea, so I gave it to the master to taste." The little maid said her heart out, she didn't think so much, and said everything that came to her mind.

Unexpectedly, when Ye Anran heard this, his face changed drastically, and he said word by word: "Hehe, it really seems that there is no one in our Ye family, right? The Wang family moved so fast that they even wanted to take over our family's tea business, but it's a pity ... I don't know if you have such a big appetite?"

"Your Majesty, please calm down." Seeing that Ye Anran was a little angry, the little maid naturally didn't dare to say any more.

Ye Anran smiled slightly: "Your tea, pour some tea for Ben Gong to taste, is that okay?"

"Of course, I'm grateful that you don't dislike it." After saying that, the little maid got up and immediately poured a little from the teapot into the teacup.

Then he picked up the teacup and handed it to Ye Anran. Unexpectedly, Ye Anran let go of his hand, and a cup of tea was spilled on the ground, which also wet Ye Anran's skirt.

The little maid suddenly knelt on the ground with a plop, begging for mercy: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, this servant did not do it on purpose."

"Well, you really didn't mean it, you did it on purpose." Ye Anran said with a cold face.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. This servant really didn't do it on purpose. I beg you to forgive me." The little maid didn't understand how she had offended this noble man, why she was walking down there with a teapot, and was caught by the noble lady's maid. To be watched.

Then this scene happened...

Ye Anran ignored the little maid's begging, and gave Xiao Rong a cold look, and Xiao Rong immediately understood.

"Come on, this maid of honor has frightened the noble lady, if you drag it down, you will be punished thirty times with a stick." Xiao Rong yelled sharply.

"Yes." Afterwards, the two guards dragged the little palace lady down and started fighting beside them.

Ye Anran stared intently at the teapot held by the little maid on the table, thoughtfully...

"Second Miss, would you like some tea? How about this servant pouring you another cup?" Seeing Ye Anran staring at the teapot, Xiao Rong immediately asked what the master meant.

Unexpectedly, Ye Anran reached out and knocked over the teapot, and the tea flowed all over the floor. Ye Anran snorted coldly: "How can I drink such tea? Tianmu Kingdom, tea can only be produced by our Ye family, even if There is no one in the Ye family, and it is not their turn to do it for the Wang family, what are they? Taking advantage of the fire to rob, or adding trouble to others, a villain."

After hearing these words, Xiao Rong completely understood that the master was angry, and was angry with the Luoyang Wang family.

The same goes for the Wang family, isn't it obvious that they want to grab business?Did you even bring the tea into the palace?Do you still want to win the emperor's promise to openly sell tea?

"Second Miss, what do you think the Wang family is planning? Do you really want to replace our Ye family's previous business?" Xiao Rong asked cautiously.

Ye Anran slowly raised the corners of her mouth, and smiled indifferently: "I don't care what they think, but... as long as I, Ye Anran, are around for a day, their Luoyang Wang family will not be able to touch the tea business. Our Ye family is not dead yet. Woolen cloth?"

After finishing speaking, Ye Anran got up and left... her face was a little embarrassed.

Xiao Rong knew that the second lady was also suffering, as long as she encountered something related to the Ye family, it would be like a volcanic eruption, this little maid is really out of luck.

Qixia Palace

Concubine Wang Guifei was wearing a plain skirt, kneeling in front of the Buddha statue and chanting Buddha's name. Suddenly, she heard someone limping in, and Concubine Wang Guifei immediately turned around.

"Xiu'er, why did you come back, where's my tea?" Wang Yu asked suspiciously.

"Imperial concubine, maidservant... I am sorry that I did not keep your tea." After finishing speaking, the maid named Xiu'er burst into tears.

"What's wrong? What happened? Xiu'er?" Wang Yu looked at Xiu'er in astonishment.

Then the maid named Xiu'er told the whole story to Wang Guifei.

Concubine Wang thought for a while and said: "Xiu'er, you should go down to recover from your injuries first, and then...see Ye Anran, hide and run away."

"Your concubine, you are a dignified concubine, I don't know how many levels are higher than her, how can you be so tolerant, it's nothing to be beaten by a servant, but it's a pity that the master's tone is hard to swallow. If we bear it today After all, she will still bully us in the future." Xiu'er said a little dissatisfied.

"Xiu'er, you have known for so many years that even though I am an imperial concubine, I am in name only. The emperor doesn't even look at me seriously. I am just like the empress, but a lonely imperial concubine who stays in her boudoir. An Ran is deeply loved by the emperor, although her status is not high, she has a lot of power, and I don't want to conflict with her because of this matter." Although Wang Guifei lives in the deep palace, she still knows more or less about the rumors outside.

Ye Anran is now the most favored in the harem, no one knows who doesn't know, how dare she go up against the wind?
"Imperial concubine, what about the tea...?" Xiu'er hesitated to speak.

"I don't want the tea. In fact, it's no wonder that she is angry about it. After all, tea is the Ye family's business. Now my father insists on taking over the Ye family's business for profit. I'm afraid it will not be an easy task." Wang Yu sighed.

"That's right, Master Wang's family letter still wants you to help him speak well in front of the emperor, trying to take over the Ye family's tea house?" Xiu'er said, recalling the family letter.

"Well, this matter, although I know that I can't help you, I still have to go. After all, he is my father." Wang Yu seemed to have made up her mind. Although she knew that the emperor might not agree, she still wanted to Go fight for her daddy.

"Xiu'er, you should go to rest first. I will go to the imperial study to meet the emperor." After finishing speaking, Wang Yu changed into a fine attire, got up and went to the imperial study.

"Yes, imperial concubine, that servant will leave first." Xiu'er limped back.

As she walked, Wang Yu showed a sad expression. It was like this in the harem. If she is popular, she will be popular. Without the emperor's favor, even if she is a noble concubine, she can't protect her slaves. This is something no one can control .

Xiu'er was beaten, although she was wronged, but she had no way to seek justice for Xiu'er, just because that woman was the emperor's favorite.

Inside the imperial study
Ye Anran was researching ink for the emperor, but she seemed to be distracted, and didn't even realize that the ink was sticking to her hands.

"Anran, why are you in a daze? What are you thinking?" Seeing that Ye Anran was distracted, the emperor looked at her amusedly and asked.
