Chapter 495 How about we three form a family tree 13

The incident of beheading Madam made her understand some things in an instant. They might not be able to understand or bear what she wanted to do. In the future, she would not tell them about things unless it was necessary, so as not to upset them too much.

Ye Qianning went straight back to Yuehua Cottage. Not long after, Luo Wen came to report that Prime Minister Gao and Prince Xiyan had left the general's mansion.

Xiliuyuan and Xifengying met, probably to discuss leaving the capital.

After leaving the General's Mansion, there was nothing left to do with the General's Mansion. The only thing left was the cooperation with Nanyuan, because it would take Nanyuan at least half a month to deliver a message.

Upon hearing that Helian Chen was ill, Prince Yu asked the Emperor to delay his departure from the capital.

Nan Yuan did not reply to the letter. Before the contract was signed, they could not take the seeds away.

There is also the matter of Dongwei. Ye Qianning has never been able to let it go. She doesn't believe that Dongwei will leave Kyoto so easily. But now Princess Dongwei went to see Sang Zhi and didn't mention anything else except Sang Zhi's grandmother.

There are only a few days left before they leave Kyoto City, so we must keep a close eye on them during these few days.

The next day was the ninth day of the fifth month.

Today is the wedding day of Gao Yunyue and Gu Yuan. Mrs. Gao was divorced and could not personally send her daughter to the wedding. She stood outside the door and cried her heart out.

The Gu family's wedding was very simple. Gu Yuan was dressed in red and riding a tall horse, followed by a beautiful woman and a group of people playing music.

The Gao family's place was also very simple, with just a few red lanterns hung up. Gu Yuan dismounted and went in, holding Gao Yunyue in his arms and getting into the bridal sedan, then hurried back.

The Gu family was dividing their property. Although some of the property could not be moved, Gao Yunyue could get a share of it if she married into the family now.

Although Gao Yunyue was very dissatisfied with the lack of a grand wedding, she did not say anything. The extra property of the Gu family was many times more than the betrothal gift.

There were no guests or wedding banquets at the wedding, and the ceremony was completed by simply worshipping in the hall.

Except for the fourth branch of the Gu family, no one else was present. They were all busy checking the account books with the prefect, fearing that others might have secretly hidden some money.

Of course, the other families were very dissatisfied with Gu Yuan getting married when the family property was divided. If it had been divided earlier, they could have gotten more, but now they want an extra share.

While feeling dissatisfied, he was also worried that if his son got married or had more children, there would be more family property.

Oh, I really didn’t expect that the old man would suddenly propose to divide the family!

May 15th

The Dongyi envoy left Kyoto City on time. Ye Qianning stood on the city gate and watched Dongyi leave with his own eyes.

During this period, Chu Yue went to the palace to see Sang Zhi once, and asked him for a portrait and a token, saying that they were to be taken to Sang Zhi's grandmother to ease her homesickness.

Some people from Dongyi secretly approached Xiyan, and the process of contact had too many twists and turns.

Some birds simply don't have much intelligence. After several turns and many changes of people, they finally become confused and don't catch much useful information.

Dongyi and Xiyan didn't know what conditions were exchanged.

Moreover, Ye Qianning did not believe that Dong Yi would really leave, so she secretly sent people to follow him. She did not feel at ease until Dong Yi left the territory of Beili.

On May 18, the King of Xiyan sent two letters, one to the Emperor of Beili and the other to the Crown Prince.

The letter to the Emperor of Beili stated that the eldest princess was seriously ill and temporarily unable to travel a long distance to Beili to get married. The wedding date would be discussed after the eldest princess recovered.

Xiliuyuan's letter was from Emperor Xiyan urging him to return home.
