Chapter 154: The Brain is Got Mad by Maggots

The emperor looked as if he had drunk a tonic soup and instantly became radiant.

When he went to the Imperial Study, he said to Eunuch De, "Go and tell the Imperial Observatory."

It is better to get married as soon as possible to avoid unexpected events.

When they arrived at the Imperial Study, the Emperor said to Ye Jingchuan, "Lord Ye, go back home immediately and bring Ye Chutang into the palace."

"I accept your order."

As soon as Ye Jingchuan turned around, the emperor remembered something.

"Lord Ye, please leave Ye Chutang's birthday."

Only if you have a birthday can you calculate the days.

After Ye Jingchuan wrote down Ye Chutang’s birthday, he left the palace with brisk steps.

Sitting in the carriage, he said happily: "I have tolerated that damn girl for so long, and finally I see the results."

He seemed to see the throne of marquis beckoning to him.

As a result, the good mood only lasted until I returned home and then disappeared.

Ye Jingchuan saw the officials from the Dali Temple arrest Ye Siyin.

Ye Siyin struggled so hard that her clothes became messed up.

"Let me go, you caught the wrong person. I wasn't the one who spread the rumor that Ye Chutang was pregnant!"

The officer snorted disdainfully, "What do you think our Dali Temple is? Would you come to an official's house to arrest someone without evidence? Not to mention you, even Miss Zhao has been put in jail!"

Hearing this, Ye Siyin's face turned pale and she didn't even have the strength to struggle.

how so?

Zhao Simin is the daughter of a wealthy family after all. How could she be thrown into prison just for saying a few half-truths?

After hearing the conversation, Ye Jingchuan was too embarrassed to get off the carriage.

How come he gave birth to a bunch of idiots? They can't survive without committing suicide, right?

Ye Siyin saw the carriage from the Shangshu Mansion.

She didn’t want to be caught, so she shouted, “Dad, save me!”

Seeing that the carriage curtain had no intention of being opened, the officer took the unwilling Ye Siyin away.

Ye Jingchuan would certainly not offend Ye Chutang and save a confused concubine's daughter!

Fortunately, the pregnancy rumor was false, otherwise Ye Chutang and Prince Chen’s marriage would have been called off, and he would have had no chance of becoming a marquis!

Ye Jingchuan got off the carriage only after he was sure that the officials had gone far away.

Some people were watching the excitement not far away and pointing at the Shangshu Mansion.

"In just two days, the legal wife died, the eldest son was imprisoned, and the concubine's daughter was also arrested. How weird!"

"What's so weird? I think he deserves it. He who does evil will eventually suffer the consequences."

"That's right, Miss Ye is such a good person, but everyone wants to harm and bully her. They are really inhuman!"

"I'm just curious about one thing. When the mistress of the house died, why didn't they hang a white banner?"

Ye Jingchuan glanced around with a warning look in his eyes.

Those who talk about things should leave tactfully.

As soon as he entered the Shangshu Mansion, the housekeeper asked, "Master, what should we do with the lady's body?"

The weather is hot, and even if it is kept in ice, it will still have a taste.

Ye Jingchuan was in a state of panic. "I still have to go to the palace. I'll talk about it when I come back."

After saying that, he quickly went to Ningchuyuan.

Ye Chutang lay on the chaise longue, thinking about exile.

Half of the time in the northwest is winter, so you need to prepare more warm clothes, bedding and food.

"Historically, cotton was introduced from the Western Regions a long time ago. Why doesn't Beichen have it?"

Although this dynasty does not appear in books, its territory is similar to that of China, and its development is equivalent to that of the Song and Ming dynasties.

In the present Beichen Kingdom, the rich use animal fur and silk to keep warm, while the poor use reed catkins and linen.

The middle layer is generally made of kapok flowers.

Although kapok is light, thin and soft, it is not as warm or fluffy as cotton, and its price is not cheap.

“The first thing to do when going to the northwest is to plant Xinjiang long-staple cotton!”

At the end of the world, Ye Chutang emptied a seed warehouse of crops by chance.

There are all kinds of seeds, filling several containers.

A place is poor and backward because it has no economy to develop.

"It's not bad to go to the northwest to build infrastructure and be a local emperor."

As soon as Ye Chutang finished speaking, he saw Ye Jingchuan entering Ningchuyuan.

He was sweating and panting because he walked too fast.

"Chu'er, the emperor summons you to the palace for an audience."

Ye Chutang waved lazily, "Dad, here."

Ye Jingchuan walked quickly to the window sill and said, "Don't dawdle, hurry up and get dressed."

"The man I'm going to marry isn't an emperor, so there's no need to dress up for him, right?"

"It's okay if you don't dress up, just come out quickly."

Ye Chutang asked: "What does the emperor want to see me about?"

Ye Jingchuan looked at her calm demeanor and became extremely anxious.

"The Emperor is urgently summoning you. Don't dawdle. I'll tell you on the way."

Ye Chutang knew why the emperor summoned her, and she got up and left her boudoir.

She followed Ye Jingchuan in a carriage straight to the palace.

"Dad, you are too anxious. You actually came to the palace to ask for a marriage. Aren't you afraid that Prince Chen will suspect something?"

Ye Jingchuan was so happy that he forgot this detail.

"Chu'er, since you can get King Chen to marry you, you can dispel his suspicions, right?"

Ye Chutang did not answer. She just wanted to make Ye Jingchuan feel anxious.

She asked, "The emperor summoned me to the palace to discuss the extermination of the Qi family, right? When will he give me the antidote?"

"As long as you help the emperor get rid of his greatest worry, you will not only get the antidote, but also become a royal concubine."

Hearing this, Ye Chutang chuckled.

"Your Majesty is inhumane. Being a concubine means being a widow. What is there to be happy about?"

Ye Jingchuan was so scared that he tried to cover Ye Chutang's mouth, but she dodged him.

"You're asking for your life, don't say that again!"

After giving the warning, he comforted her, "The emperor has asked Dr. Xue to treat you, and he will definitely be able to cure you. If you can give birth to a son, he will have the opportunity to become emperor in the future!"

Ye Chutang really wanted to cut open Ye Jingchuan's head to see if his brain was eaten by maggots.

How dare you draw such an outrageous pie!

She rolled her eyes, "It's broad daylight, stop dreaming."

After a while, the carriage arrived at the palace gate.

In order to see Ye Chutang earlier, the emperor sent a sedan chair to pick him up at the palace gate.

The father and daughter were soon carried to the Qinzheng Hall.

The emperor gave Ye Chutang the drafted imperial decree granting marriage.

"I asked the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to compare your birth dates with those of Prince Chen, and the auspicious day will be in five days."

Ye Chutang glanced at the imperial edict, which praised her and Qi Yanzhou to the skies, raising their matching value to the maximum.

"Your Majesty, with such a tight wedding date, Prince Chen will surely become suspicious."

Of course the emperor knew that Qi Yanzhou would be suspicious, but he didn't want to wait any longer.

"Miss Ye was able to get King Chen to agree to marry you in such a short time, and you will definitely be able to dispel his suspicions."

Ye Chutang looked at the emperor's ugly face and lowered his eyes to hide his disgust.

"I will do my best. The emperor summoned me to the palace, not just to receive the emperor's order, right?"

"You should be very clear about the purpose of me asking you to marry Prince Chen."

"Your Highness knows that Prince Chen is harboring evil intentions. Your Majesty wants to eliminate the treacherous ministers and restore order in the court."

When the emperor heard these words, he felt relieved both physically and mentally.

I have the illusion that I'm finally recognized.

But he did not trust Ye Chutang and ordered, "Raise your head."

Ye Chutang raised his head and looked calmly into the emperor's eyes, allowing him to stare at her aggressively.

"Miss Ye has been in contact with Prince Chen a lot recently. Are you attracted to him?"

"I cherish my life and only want to be a concubine."

"As expected of the person I chose, you have courage and resolution."

After the emperor finished speaking, he asked Ye Chutang to sit down.

"I have a method that can make the entire Chen Palace be executed, but I need Miss Ye's cooperation."

"Your Majesty, please speak."
