Chapter 72 Preparing to Attend the Palace Banquet



Upon hearing this, Ye Pengcheng shook his head.

"Logically speaking, given His Majesty's love for Prince Yu, he would definitely take the opportunity to tie the Ye family and Prince Yu together."

"In this case, Xinxin's identity shouldn't be what it is now."

"But His Majesty only gave me the status of a concubine. This is quite intriguing."

Ye Pengcheng sighed, but Ye Chang suddenly spoke.

"Dad, could it be related to the prince?"

"As you know, recently because of the Tianquan Book Club incident, many people have suspected that I am on good terms with my elder brother and the crown prince."

"Although my eldest brother and I planned a farce, as long as my eldest brother is at the Tianquan Book Club, the connection between the Ye family and the prince will be inseparable."

Ye Fan frowned, "But we have never met the prince."

Ye Sheng had been listening quietly to his father and brother's conversation. Seeing them guessing to each other, he couldn't help but remind them.

"Is it possible that His Majesty also wants to know if there is any relationship between the Ye family and the Crown Prince, so he deliberately wants to use Xinxin's matter to test it?"

Ye Pengcheng frowned, "You mean, if we don't stand up for Xinxin, we'll be tacitly accepting our relationship with the Crown Prince?"

Ye Sheng nodded, "It's not impossible."

"The marriage between the Ye family and the Li family is likely to arouse your majesty's suspicion."

"If we help Xinxin, it means we have feelings for Prince Yu."

"On the contrary, if we ignore Xinxin, His Majesty will think that we might be involved with the Crown Prince."

"Given the extent of His Majesty's partiality towards Prince Yu, if he knew that the Ye family had pledged allegiance to the Crown Prince, I'm afraid he would take action against the Ye family."

Ye Fan frowned, but he also agreed with Ye Sheng's statement.

"Fourth brother is right, but Xinxin is in this state now. If we fight for her, I'm afraid it will be our Ye family that suffers."

Upon hearing this, Ye Pengcheng sighed deeply.

"Your Majesty's thoughts are becoming increasingly difficult to guess. I have a feeling that something is about to happen."

The four sons of the Ye family immediately became worried. After a long time, Ye Fan spoke.

"Dad, we definitely can't help Xinxin right now."

"However, we can take the opportunity to contact the Crown Prince during the palace banquet in a few days."

Ye Pengcheng's heart skipped a beat. "Fan'er, are you really planning to let the Ye family join the Crown Prince?"

Ye Fan sighed, "Knowing that Prince Yu is not a good leader, we definitely cannot choose him."

"As for the Crown Prince, let's get in touch with him first and see what happens. If he's really as bad as people say, then our Ye family will only have one last resort."

Ye Pengcheng narrowed his eyes slightly, "If it's really as Fan'er said, then the only option left is to hand over military power."

"But fortunately, now that you four have your own careers, I am relieved."

"But if this happens, Xiaoxiao will probably have to suffer with us."

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan spoke immediately.

"Don't worry, Dad. I have already accumulated a lot of private property. If the Ye family really gives up their current rights in the future, I will also support Xiaoxiao."

Ye Chang also echoed.

"Yeah, Dad, you don't have to worry about that. With four of us brothers, raising a sister and a child is not a problem."

Ye Xiaoxiao didn't know that everyone in the Ye family was discussing how to support her in the future. If she knew, she would probably be even more unable to sleep.

The Ye family members were so engrossed in their discussion that they forgot the time. Meanwhile, Ye Xinxin was extremely anxious in her room.

"Qiuping, what did big brother say? Why hasn't he come yet?"

Qiu Ping was also a little anxious, "Miss, the eldest master said he was going to talk to the master, but he didn't say when he would come."

Ye Xinxin clenched her hands and waited for a long time, but Ye Fan did not come.

"It seems that Big Brother may not come today. What should I do?"

Qiuping was also a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, she felt relieved.

"Miss, perhaps the eldest master was delayed by something, but it doesn't matter. The Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet will be held in a few days."

"By then, even if the master doesn't want you to go out, I'm afraid it won't be possible."

"Then you will not only be able to go out freely, but you will also be able to meet His Royal Highness Prince Yu. If there is anything you want to know, just ask and you will know."

Ye Xinxin had no other choice but to pin her hopes on the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.

However, since this incident, she has harbored even deeper resentment towards the Ye family.

Time flies, and in everyone's anticipation, the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet finally arrived.

Mrs. Ye prepared several sets of clothes for Ye Xiaoxiao and Ye Xinxin early in the morning.

Mrs. Ye asked Guizhi to deliver it to Ye Xinxin and pass a message to her at the same time.

"Miss, this is the dress that Madam prepared for you to enter the palace. Madam has instructed that you must follow Madam today and remember not to wander around casually."

Ye Xinxin nodded in agreement on the surface, but she already had her own ideas in her mind.

After Guizhi finished speaking, she left, and Mrs. Ye took the clothes to the backyard herself.

Seeing that Mrs. Ye looked exhausted, Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask a few questions out of concern.

"Mom, have you been too tired recently? Why do you look so haggard?"

Madam Ye smiled faintly, "Xiaoxiao, don't worry. I've been taking care of your second brother's wedding these past few days, and I'm a little tired, but everything is basically ready, and mother can take a break now."

Seeing that Mrs. Ye was unwilling to say more, Ye Xiaoxiao did not ask any more questions.

"Mother, this dress is too bright. I'd rather wear this white dress."

Ye Xiaoxiao refused the bright clothes sent by Mrs. Ye and pointed to the white dress in Tianxuan's hand.

Seeing this, Mrs. Ye frowned slightly.
