In the evening, Lin Yuehong came back from outside. After seeing Jiang Qiuning, he went to find Nian Nian and Wei Wencong.
"Brother! You're back?" Nian Nian excitedly came over to greet Lin Yuehong when she saw him.
Lin Yuehong smiled indulgently, "Have you rested enough? Let's go out for dinner. Your sister-in-law has asked someone to make you something delicious."
"Thank you, brother! Brother, I haven't seen you for many years. You have become much more handsome." Nian Nian joked.
Lin Yuehong grinned, "Don't worry! I can't compare to your future husband! Your future husband is the most handsome man in Kyoto, as selected by the noble ladies!"
Although he is not bad looking, they have already started a family and their children are already grown up, so they are naturally not eligible to participate in the "handsome man" contest.
But he didn't care about these gimmicks, whether it was a handsome man or a talented man! It was just a gimmick that had no use.
Nian Nian curled her lips, "Brother! What do you think of Ye Taoan? Is he a good man worth marrying?"
She has been in Youzhou these years and doesn't know the situation in Kyoto.
But Lin Yuehong is different. He has been in Kyoto City. He should be clear about what Ye Taoan has done over the years.
"I don't have much in common with Master Ye, but he has a good reputation! Other men in Kyoto are already married at his age and have many wives and concubines, but he is very chaste and doesn't even have a concubine.
Although many women in Kyoto admire him, he remains unmoved, just to wait for you! With this determination, I think he should be quite good. "Lin Yuehong commented truthfully.
He and Ye Taoan had no interaction, but he would occasionally pay attention to Ye Taoan's every move.
Ye Taoan has indeed performed well over the years and has not been like other young masters from aristocratic families who frequent places of entertainment.
Apart from working in the Ministry of Personnel, he would usually invite a few good friends to have tea and talk about poetry. He is a pretty good man!
Moreover, he was a man of integrity and had no concubines or maids in his house.
Although he was not sure that Ye Taoan would not take a concubine in the future, based on the current situation, Ye Taoan was qualified.
Hearing this, Nian Nian smiled with satisfaction, "That's good! I believe in big brother's vision!"
"No! Nian Nian, you can't listen to others. When it comes to love, you have to follow your heart! What you like is the most important! What others say is useless." Lin Yuehong taught.
She can't listen to other people's opinions! She has to listen to her own heart.
No matter how many thoughts others have, they are their own. No one can help her with matters of the heart.
She has to listen to her inner voice!
"Okay! There's no need to rush about this. The marriage hasn't been finalized yet! The Ye family hasn't come to propose marriage yet, so let's not talk about this for now." Nian Nian didn't want to continue chatting.
She will feel it carefully. It is only March now. The Ye family means to set the wedding at the end of the year, and there are still several months left.
She can develop a good relationship with Ye Taoan.
…
Nian Nian stayed in the Lin Mansion for two days, and she received a message from Ye Taoan inviting her to go for an outing.
Wei Wen Chong was unwilling to let Nian Nian go to the appointment.
"Sister! It's not safe for you two to go alone! Let me go with you." Wei Wen Chong wanted to follow. He wanted to protect his sister.
Nian Nian rubbed his head: "No need! With your mediocre skills, you are not as good as your sister! I can just wear the tassel."
Liusu is her personal maid. Her martial arts skills are good enough to protect her.
And Ye Taoan shouldn't dare to be so bold as to do anything beyond the line, right?
"Okay, you just study hard at home, I'll be back soon." After Nian Nian said this, she took Liusu out.
As soon as she went out, she saw Ye Taoan waiting for her. She got on the carriage directly and left the city with Ye Taoan.
"My princess, aren't you afraid that I might be plotting something bad?" Ye Taoan said with a smile.
Nian Nian raised an eyebrow, "Then would you have any ill intentions towards this princess?"
Unless Ye Taoan is a fool, he would not do this.
Ye Taoan flirted with her, which did her no good at all, only harm.
He shouldn't be that stupid!
"Of course not! Princess, don't worry. I will never dare to be presumptuous." Ye Taoan said with a smile.
He and Nian Nian are going to get married, how could he bear to bully her?
Besides, Nian Nian is his anyway, so why should he be in a hurry?
If he bullied Nian Nian, the duck in his mouth would fly away.
Several people were about to leave the city in a carriage, but as soon as they arrived at the city gate, they were stopped by someone.
Nian Nian lifted the curtain and saw a young woman leading a child of three or four years old stopping their carriage.
Nian Nian got off the carriage directly and asked, "Who are you? Why are you stopping our carriage?"
The young woman didn't answer Nian Nian's question, but knelt down in front of her. "You are the princess of the Regent Palace, right? I ask the princess to make the decision!"
Nian Nian was startled. "What's your grievance? Tell me what you have. My cousin is the Minister of Justice. He will redress your grievance."
Wei Chen is the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple, whose job is to investigate cases and redress grievances for the innocent.
Wei Chen is not afraid of offending powerful officials. When a case comes to his hands, no matter how high the official position of the offender is, he will investigate it thoroughly.
When he encountered someone who resisted during an investigation, he would execute them first and report to the police later.
Therefore, he was dubbed the "Living King of Hell" at a young age.
"Princess, this child is Mr. Ye's flesh and blood. I hope you can make the decision and let the child recognize his ancestors!" The young woman said with tears in her eyes.
Hearing this, Nian Nian looked at Ye Taoan. Ye Taoan's face was as pale as paper at this moment, without any blood.
Nian Nian: ...
Is this child Ye Taoan’s?
The child looks like he's already three or four years old. You're such a good person, Ye Taoan! You actually hid the fact that you have a three or four-year-old child from her?
Since he already has a child, why does he still want to marry her?
There was no other emotion in Nian Nian's heart except anger.
"Ye Taoan! What's going on?" Nian Nian asked Ye Taoan directly.
Ye Taoan stood there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.
How did he...how did Yanhong come here? She even...secretly gave birth to his child?
