Chapter 050 Dowry Maid

The next day, just after dawn, Sun, who had accompanied Ouyang Xiu all night, washed up in a hurry, dressed up, and hurried into the palace. This was what she had thought of all night. Now her two daughters have been killed by Ouyang Wu one after another. After Ouyang Xuan was released from the woodshed, he was assigned to Western Xinjiang by Ouyang Liu. Ouyang Liu now looks at Ouyang Wu differently. He can't help but be reluctant to punish her, and even sent a lot of servants around her.

Sun has always understood Ouyang Liu. This person loves himself more. He only does things that benefit himself. Since Ouyang Liu doesn't care about this matter, after thinking about it, only Princess Yaohua and the Queen can deal with that little bitch!

After all, Ouyang Wu robbed Princess Yaohua of Ye Feibai, which brought shame to the entire royal family. If she provokes a few words, the entire royal family will definitely be enemies with Ouyang Wu!

Princess Yaohua was a little uneasy today, and she came to the Queen to pay her respects early in the morning. Princess Yaohua was beside the Queen, and the two were chatting about some trivial matters when they heard a report from outside: "The wife of the Left Prime Minister, Sun, wants to see you!"

The Queen looked at the princess and smiled, "Jin'er hasn't been to the palace for a long time. How come she has time to come to see me today? Announce!"

After a while, Sun came in from outside the palace. The Queen found that although she had a thick layer of powder on her face, it could not cover up her pale face and the blue under her eyes. She seemed to have suddenly aged ten years, with a dull and sad look in her eyes. Sun has always paid attention to her appearance and takes good care of herself on weekdays. She would never be like this. The queen's eyebrows jumped: "Jin'er, what's wrong with you?"

Sun wailed as soon as she saw the queen and Princess Yaohua. Her tears washed away the powder on her face. The queen was confused: "What's wrong with you?"

Princess Yaohua was also very surprised. She stepped forward to help Sun up: "But what happened?"

Sun cried even harder: "Your Majesty and Princess, you must avenge Xiu'er!"

"What happened to Xiu'er? Yesterday I invited Xiu'er and Wu'er to participate in my flower viewing meeting. Why didn't they come?" Princess Yaohua's eyes flashed with pride. She was not concerned about Ouyang Xiu now, but wanted to hear the tragic news of Ouyang Wu.

"Xiu'er...Xiu'er...It's all because of that little bitch Ouyang Wu. Yesterday...Yesterday...They were supposed to attend the princess' flower-viewing party, but after Xiu'er got on Ouyang Wu's carriage, she didn't expect that the carriage took Xiu'er to the suburbs. Xiu'er, Xiu'er was...This must be a trap set by Ouyang Wu. She harmed Xiu'er!"

After hearing the news, Princess Yaohua's beautiful face showed a ferocious face without any concealment, as deep and bottomless as a dark forest, which was frightening. Her watery eyes seemed to be the ice that had not melted for thousands of years under the cold pond, with a strong sense of hostility. This was a trap she had dug with great difficulty. She thought that Ouyang Wu did not appear at the flower-viewing party yesterday, so she was sure that she had been abused, but she didn't expect it! Thinking of this, Princess Yaohua stamped her feet angrily, and kept blaming Ouyang Xiu in her heart. This idiot, how could he be so brainless, causing her to fail to overthrow Ouyang Wu, and deserved to be insulted.

The Queen was extremely shocked when she heard what Sun said. Seeing Yaohua's abnormal expression, she knew her daughter better than her mother. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Princess Yaohua coldly. The Queen spoke slowly and comforted Sun: "This Xiu'er is really pitiful. How could a good girl encounter such a thing? Have you checked it out? Is it really Ouyang Wu who did it?"

Sun sobbed more and more, and her eyes burst with strong hatred: "That Ouyang Wu, since being chosen as the princess by the second prince Ye, has been unscrupulous. Not only does she act arbitrarily in the Prime Minister's Mansion and ignore us, but also... even more..."

"Oh? Even more?" Yaohua saw that Sun couldn't say it, so she continued.

"Even more, she doesn't take the royal family into her eyes!"

"How unbridled!" The Queen's face darkened, and there was a strong anger between her delicate eyebrows. She was already very troubled by the fact that Ye Feibai rejected the princess and brought shame to the royal family. Now this Ouyang Wu has challenged her bottom line again and again, and now she doesn't even take the royal family seriously! The queen's hand was on the armrest, and the armor inlaid with rubies and jade made a low "click" sound!

"Queen, calm down. I have met this Ouyang Wu a few times, but she is arrogant. She seduced Ye Feibai with her foxy skills. After she thought she was the princess of Ye, she didn't take anyone seriously. With her around, this Xiangfu has suffered so many misfortunes. I think she is the ominous person. If Ye Feibai knew, I'm afraid..."

Princess Yaohua glanced at the queen and continued to add fuel to the fire. She stopped talking here and just picked up the handkerchief in her hand to gently cover the smile at the corner of her lips.

"Such an ominous person should be known to everyone in the world!" The queen replied lightly.

Oh, Ouyang Wu, the majesty of the royal family, how can you, a woman, challenge it?

Ye Chonghua was sitting in the hall, and the emperor was sitting in the hall drinking tea leisurely. Ouyang Wu's bad reputation and broken fate have spread quickly in Dongjin recently. I believe that soon everyone in the world will know that the fifth lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion is not only a nymphomaniac, but also an ominous person. Whoever gets involved will be unlucky.

The emperor of Dongjin invited him here today, probably for this matter. A subtle sneer appeared on Ye Chonghua's face.

The emperor put down the teacup and cleared his throat, "Have you heard anything recently?"

"What does the emperor think I should hear?"

Ye Chonghua's question made the emperor's face slightly gloomy. If it weren't for Yaohua, the girl, pestering him early in the morning, he would not be willing to wade into this muddy water. After relaxing his expression, the emperor continued, "I have heard a lot about... the fifth lady of the Xiangfu recently."

Ye Zhonghua sat calmly, his eyebrows were as dark as the thick ink in the ink painting, his eyes were as bright as precious obsidian, and his black vertical hair was shining with a faint luster, with a hint of loneliness and indifference. He casually played with the smooth jade porcelain cup in his hand, and his every move showed his elegance and grace.

He slowly moved the jade cup filled with tea closer to his cold lips, took a sip, and then slowly said, "Oh? What did the emperor hear about my princess?"

The word princess was deliberately emphasized. Ye Chonghua's deep eyes were cold and ruthless. He glanced at the emperor inadvertently, with a look of contempt for everything, revealing a noble and arrogant arrogance. Even the emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, who was used to being calm and arrogant, couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

"Recently, there are rumors that the fifth lady of the Ouyang family has a hard fate and will bring a lot of trouble to the people around her. It is said that it is because of her that the prime minister's mansion has been in turmoil recently. If this is true, Prince, if you marry her, I'm afraid it will affect the country's destiny!"

With a "pop", the jade porcelain cup was pressed heavily on the sandalwood table by Ye Chonghua. In just a moment, countless cracks appeared on the jade cup, and then it turned into a pool of fragments. He frowned slightly, which made him look even more arrogant and sinister: "I never thought that the great Eastern Jin would be afraid of a weak woman. It's ridiculous. I never believe in fate. Besides, if it is true, if I marry her, wouldn't it just solve a problem for the Eastern Jin?"

The emperor originally intended to win over Ye Chonghua, and hoped that he could marry Yaohua, but when he saw Ye Chonghua's wild look, he regretted listening to the queen's pillow talk.

"Haha, Your Highness is joking. Your Highness has come all the way to my Eastern Jin Dynasty to marry a wonderful woman. How can I promise such a woman to Your Highness?" The Emperor smiled indifferently, "Ouyang Wu is indeed beautiful, but such a woman is really not worth six cities. In terms of beauty, I think my Yaohua is better. She is not only the most beautiful woman in my Eastern Jin Dynasty, but also the most noble woman in my Eastern Jin Dynasty. If you marry her, it will definitely bring good luck to Xiling Country. What do you think?"

Ye Chonghua just curled his lips slightly, with a stronger sense of sarcasm, but did not respond.

The emperor saw that Ye Chonghua didn't say anything, but just looked at him quietly. He thought that his words had moved Ye Chonghua. He thought for a moment, frowned slightly, and thought of a plan. He suggested: "If the prince really likes Ouyang Wu, then let her be a maidservant for Yaohua. But this woman must not be married. She has a bad reputation and is not worthy of being the Ye King's Concubine."
