The three of them talked for a long time, and Ye Xiaoxiao analyzed the pros and cons with Mrs. Ye.
"Mother, marrying a princess for a peace agreement is the same as marrying a princess. You will not be able to hold real power in the court in the future."
"Although Fourth Brother is not in the court now, there will inevitably be changes in the future, so you must consider it carefully."
Madam Ye nodded. After all, she was the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Huguo, so she understood these principles.
"Don't worry, mother will have a good talk with your fourth brother."
As they were talking, Ye Sheng and Ye Rong walked in from outside.
"What does mother want to say to her son?"
Hearing the sound, Mrs. Ye looked up hurriedly.
"Why did you come with your second brother?"
"We met him on the way back. We heard that Xiaoxiao was back, so we came to see him."
Madam Ye understood, "Then have you ever been to the front yard to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
The two shook their heads. As soon as they returned to the mansion, they heard the servants say that Ye Xiaoxiao was back, so they went straight to the backyard and forgot about Shangguan Lingyun.
Mrs. Ye looked at them with a hint of reproach.
"Then why don't you go quickly."
Ye Rong scratched his head, Li Jingjing smiled faintly, and Ye Xiaoxiao waved her hand.
"Mother, there's no need to blame the second and fourth brothers. We've been talking for a long time. Why don't we go together?"
Mrs. Ye and Li Jingjing stood up, and Ye Sheng was a little confused.
"Mom, you haven't answered your son's question yet."
Mrs. Ye glared at Ye Sheng unhappily.
"No wonder Xiaoxiao said you were a straight man. You really don't know how to adapt at all."
Ye Sheng was confused by what was said, while Ye Xiaoxiao came to his side with a smile.
"Fourth brother, what do you think of Princess Xinya?"
Ye Sheng became furious when Princess Xinya was mentioned.
"I've never seen such an arrogant and domineering woman. She's a princess, but she has no manners at all."
Ye Xiaoxiao smiled faintly, "Fourth brother, speaking ill of others behind their backs doesn't make you a gentleman."
Ye Sheng snorted coldly, "That's what I said when I met her."
Mrs. Ye held her forehead with her hand, her son was really hopeless.
Ye Xiaoxiao felt amused.
[It seems that there is more trouble going on between Fourth Brother and Princess Xinya.]
Ye Sheng: ???
He didn't want to see Princess Xinya at all. What was he making such a fuss about? It was simply unreasonable.
Mrs. Ye couldn't bear to watch it and quickly changed the subject.
"Alright, alright, it's getting late. After you go see His Highness, they should go back."
As they were talking, they came to the front hall, and Shangguan Lingyun and Ye Pengcheng had almost finished their conversation.
Ye Fan and Ye Chang were also there, and it seemed that they had just returned.
They all saluted Ye Xiaoxiao, and Ye Xiaoxiao waved her hand quickly.
"We are all family, no need to be polite."
Ye Pengcheng was very happy to see everyone present.
"Your Highness, why don't you have dinner at Ye Mansion before going back today?"
Shangguan Lingyun looked at Ye Xiaoxiao, and Ye Xiaoxiao quickly shook her head.
"Dad, there are a lot of things going on in the palace. It's not easy for me to come out today. I won't have dinner."
Ye Pengcheng knew that they were busy, so he didn't force them.
After they talked for a few more words, Shangguan Lingyun took Ye Xiaoxiao back to the palace.
After the two left, Ye Sheng still looked at Mrs. Ye with hope.
"Mother, what about Princess Xinya that Xiaoxiao just mentioned?"
Mrs. Ye didn't know how to answer for a moment, so Li Jingjing had to stand up.
"Fourth brother, what happened between you and Princess Xinya today?"
Ye Sheng got angry when he heard this, but seeing everyone's curiosity, he had to say it briefly.
Mrs. Ye and Li Jingjing, who had experienced this before, immediately agreed with Ye Xiaoxiao's idea after hearing his story.
"Fourth brother, if it's really as you said, then Princess Xinya is probably interested in you."
"The Dayu envoy won't be here for long. When the time comes, let Princess Xinya choose a husband. Fourth brother will be the one with the best chance."
Ye Sheng was a little disdainful, "Who wants to marry that unruly princess?"
"Even if I, Ye Sheng, remain single for the rest of my life, I will never marry her."
Everyone in the Ye family felt helpless. At the same time, Dugu Xin was talking about the same thing with Princess Xinya.
"Xinya, I advise you not to waste your time on Shangguan Lingyun anymore. He will never marry you."
Princess Xinya was a little dissatisfied, but after two days of understanding, she also knew that what Dugu Xin said was true.
"Royal brother, why are you all so supportive of Ye Xiaoxiao?"
Dugu Xin didn't want to dwell on Ye Xiaoxiao's affairs, so he turned the topic back to Princess Xinya.
"Xinya, I have been here for some time. Although Dayu is still under control, I cannot stay here for long."
Princess Xinya was feeling a little depressed.
"Royal brother, what should I do? You can't just let me marry any man I choose."
Dugu Xin looked at Princess Xinya patiently.
"Xinya, the marriage is imperative. As for the choice of the bride, you must make a decision as soon as possible."
"Three days later, the Great Xia Palace will hold a coronation ceremony, and after the grand ceremony, there will be a palace banquet."
"By then, all the young masters of the noble families will be here. This will be your last chance."
Princess Xinya closed her eyes weakly, then looked at Dugu Xin helplessly.
"I wonder which young master my royal brother thinks is more suitable?"
Dugu Xin sighed and looked at Princess Xinya lovingly.
"Liu Yunting, the legitimate grandson of the Grand Tutor, Wang Muzhe, the legitimate son of the Prime Minister, Qin Lei, the legitimate grandson of the Duke's Mansion, as well as Ye Fan, the eldest son of the Ye family, and Ye Sheng, the fourth son."
