55 gloat

Ren Wanyun said so. Old Madam Ye wasn't so stupid as not to understand the meaning beyond Ren Wanyun's words.

Hearing Ren Wanyun's tone, that Prince Yu was like a devil.

If Ye Lily fell into his hands, it was just a nice title.

The real beneficiary was still the Ye family.

As for Ye Yuanbai, he was indeed Old Madam Ye's precious.

Using Ye Lily to pave the way for Ye Yuanbai was a very good idea for Old Madam Ye.

"Since this is the case, both of you say it's good.

Then it seems that Prince Yu is indeed a good match for Fifth Girl."

Old Madam Ye was very thick-skinned.

Saying such words solemnly like this made Chen Ruoqiu's eyes flash with disdain.

"Mother also thinks it's good," Ren Wanyun was also good at telling lies and immediately said,

"When I choose a husband for Fifth Girl, I certainly can't choose someone of low status.

A prince's mansion, that's really climbing a high branch."

Old Madam Ye nodded upon hearing this and then remembered something and said,

"Has the prince's mansion sent someone to propose?"

Ren Wanyun's face twitched.

Even she wasn't an easy person, but she didn't expect this old woman to be so impatient and was eager to decide Ye Lily's marriage.

Of course, the sooner this marriage was settled, the better.

Otherwise, it would be bad when Ye Xin came back.

But even if it was settled, Ye Xin might not allow Ye Lily to marry into the prince's mansion.

Therefore, some extraordinary means must be used.

Fortunately, it seemed that the people from the prince's mansion didn't intend to marry her formally.

The way that Prince Yu liked was really something.

Of course, it had to be kept secret.

"Mother, it's too early now," Ren Wanyun smiled and said,

"Fifth Girl is still young and not in a hurry.

Deciding like this will inevitably be talked about.

Let them get along first.

When they fall in love with each other and Fifth Girl is willing herself, we'll mention the marriage.

In this way, no one will say that we forced Fifth Girl."

Even if Ye Lily was a fool, it was impossible for her to fall in love with Prince Yu.

Such words were just covering up those ugly intentions with nice words.

What kind of result would come in the middle was unknown.

Chen Ruoqiu smiled quietly but didn't speak.

Although she also wanted to see Ye Lily have bad luck in her heart, she was cautious by nature.

Such a prominent thing, it was better to leave it to Ren Wanyun.

If Ye Xin pursued it in the future, it wouldn't be traced to her anyway.

Watching the fight from the mountain was what Chen Ruoqiu was best at.

Behind the screen, both Ye Amy and Ye Cindy were a little scared in their hearts.

They didn't expect that in just a few words, Ye Lily's lifelong event was decided.

For girls, the husband meant the happiness of the second half of life, and Ye Lily was destined to be unhappy.

But Ye Amy and Ye Cindy didn't have a shred of sympathy for Ye Lily.

In the officialdom, Ye Xin suppressed their father.

In terms of status, Ye Lily suppressed their sisters.

Plus the influence of Old Madam Ye, the eldest branch was just a thorn in their hearts.

Seeing Ye Lily have bad luck, they only had the share of gloat.

Although Old Madam Ye knew nothing about managing the household, she was very proficient in the battles among the women in the backyard.

Especially these underhanded means.

She was able to become the mistress of the general's mansion from a small singer in the beginning.

It wasn't just by a charming face. The means were naturally ruthless.

Therefore, after hearing Ren Wanyun's words, she also understood the meaning and smiled,

"Oh, well, then let Fifth Girl get close to Prince Yu more.

Indeed, in this kind of thing, if we really forced Fifth Girl and made the eldest son angry later, it wouldn't be good."

Her current appearance was already mean.

Making this kind of loving gesture only made people feel like a weasel squeezing a smiling face, extremely ill-intentioned.

Ye Amy and Ye Cindy shivered together and quickly moved far away from the screen.

...

In the west courtyard, under the oil lamp, Ye Lily sat quietly.

In front of her was a snow-white sheepskin paper.

There was nothing on it and the ink was already ground.

It seemed that she wanted to write but after a moment, she gently sighed and put the sheepskin paper away.

It's good to plan ahead for some things.

But now she is just a girl in the boudoir.

What she can rely on is nothing but the many pieces of information she has mastered.

But these things can't exert their maximum effect on her now.

Sure enough, the road still has to be walked step by step.

Seeing her sigh, Gu Yu and Jing Zhe thought she was thinking about Prince Yu.

Gu Yu stepped forward to comfort, "Miss, please be relieved.

If there is really any evil intention over there, even at the cost of our lives, we servants will protect Miss.

If it really doesn't work, in the capital, there are also families that are on good terms with the master. At worst..."

Ye Lily shook her head,

"The prince's mansion is powerful and has the protection of the royal family.

Even if the friendship between father and others is good, he won't risk making enemies with the royal family to protect me."

Not only that, the royal family was eyeing the Ye family.

If they acted rashly, it would make the suspicious royal family of Ming Qi suspect that Ye Xin was colluding with others.

After all, if one's ministers were too close, it wasn't a good thing for any emperor.

"Otherwise, let's write a letter to the master," Jing Zhe said,

"Although the master is busy with military affairs, the eldest young master is just attached to the army and has no transfer order.

If he returns to Dingjing, he won't be punished by the superiors.

With the eldest young master here, he can always protect Miss."

"Even if my elder brother rushes back from the northwest, it will take more than a month even by galloping horses.

How can he make it in time? Do you think they will be patient for so long?" Ye Lily said calmly.

The deterrence of Ye Xin would make them act in the shortest time.

Thinking that the raw rice was cooked and saying a few scary words could make her obediently follow their arrangement.

Ye Lily might, but the Empress Ye who had suffered blood and tears in the harem would never!

"Then what can we do?" The faces of Gu Yu and Jing Zhe changed greatly at the same time.

Although they knew this matter was bad, they didn't expect it to be so serious.

The methods of Prince Yu, in Dingjing City, any girl he took a fancy to, even if she was from a high official's family, would be spoiled if she was spoiled.

In the end, the royal family came out to pacify a few words, but there was nothing they could do.

Just because this person's methods were evil and partial.

There was nothing obvious on the surface.

In the end, it was still those girls who suffered.

"What to do? Others are unreliable." Ye Lily looked at the flickering flame,

"It's better to rely on ourselves."

"But Miss..." Gu Yu was a little anxious.

How could Ye Lily protect herself?

For others, the family might be able to resist a little.

But the people from the second and third rooms might have even formed an alliance with the other side!

"I have my own way." Ye Lily played with the paperweight in her hand.

The Yu Prince's Mansion relied only on the emperor's kindness and the protection of the royal family.

What if the royal family was unwilling to protect him and just happened to have enemies coming?

Tsk, without the protection of the royal family, the prince's mansion was just a pile of mud.

Prince, prince. After all, there is some blood relation with the royal family.

Let's start with him.

By the way, she looked outside.

There were faintly figures moving outside the window.

The fat figure, wasn't it Granny Gui?

By the way, clean up the unclear scum in this west courtyard together.
