Chapter 238 I'm Coming to Marry You
Li Runrun still found out who the current queen was from Ye Qiaoqiao.
It turned out to be Chen Jiaojiao, the legitimate daughter of Chen Yuanpan, who had saved her and her child.
Li Ruanruan was shocked: "Aren't she and Xu Yangxi in love? How could it be..."
Ye Qiaoqiao sighed and lowered her voice to Li Ruanruan, "Yes, it is said that Chen Jiaojiao got married despite being ill. She must have a knot in her heart."
Li Ruanruan immediately understood. Xiao Jing had said that he needed a queen without power. Chen Jiaojiao was beautiful and indeed the most suitable candidate for a vase display.
Therefore, Xiao Jing still likes to steal someone's love.
Is this a habit of his?
Li Runrun looked at Ye Qiaoqiao. Fortunately, Qiaoqiao was very happy now.
Li Ruanruan smiled with relief.
Then I heard Ye Qiaoqiao gossiping about Xu Wan and learned the reasons and consequences of her divorce.
"Xu Wan's reputation is rotten now. People say she appears to be noble on the surface, but is actually the most promiscuous at heart."
Ye Qiaoqiao continued, "I heard from Shan Cheng that because of Xu Wan's incident, Lord Xu has resigned from his post, and the emperor has approved it."
"Lord Xu's resignation is probably not related to Xu Wan's affairs. It should be..."
"ah?"
Although Ye Qiaoqiao has become much more mature in matters concerning the harem, she still has only a vague understanding of the political situation.
Li Ruanruan whispered to Ye Qiaoqiao, "The emperor wants to move on from the powerful ministers of the previous dynasty and install a new person. I'm afraid Minister Xu has been caught by the emperor, so he was forced to resign. He's also using this resignation as an excuse to gain some favor."
"Is there such a thing? Ruanruan, did big brother tell you?"
"Um."
In fact, it was her own guess, but it doesn’t matter. The truth should be pretty close.
Li Ruanruan added, "Even a centipede is still alive after death. The Xu family is a family of officials, and it won't fall that easily."
"I don't quite understand this. Do you mean that Xu Wan won't be miserable?"
"That depends on her."
"Ah, what does this mean? Why don't I understand what you said? Just tell me briefly."
"If Xu Wan is tolerant and doesn't care about this matter, she can go back to a place where no one knows her and change her appearance. She will still be able to live a good life. But if Xu Wan is arrogant and resentful, unable to move on, and lets this matter become her inner demon, she will not be able to get along with herself. She will not have many years to live."
Ye Qiaoqiao understood now, and then she said, "After something like this happened, Xu Wan didn't bash her head against the wall out of shame and anger. I think she has a thick skin. She's really lucky. Ruanruan, go back and talk to big brother. Don't let Xu Wan live such a comfortable life. Big brother will definitely listen to you."
Ye Qiaoqiao then said, "Now that Lord Xu has come down, who else in the court is more qualified than Big Brother and has the status to be the new Prime Minister?"
Ye Qiaoqiao looked at Li Ruanruan with sparkling eyes, and was happy for her from the bottom of her heart: "Ruanruan, your good days are still to come."
However, Li Runrun knew that Ye Yunchu might not be able to become the Prime Minister, because Ye Yunchu was going to do something that no one would understand if they told it to others.
Li Ruanruan lowered her eyes, peeled the melon seeds in her hand, and remained silent.
After a pause, he said, "Xu Wan doesn't care as much as you think. She has a very difficult time going through this. She is unwilling to die, and she is suffering in life."
Li Runrun thought that this was probably what Ye Yunchu was thinking. Killing Xu Wan would be too easy for her. The most cruel punishment would be to make her live a life worse than death.
Ye Qiaoqiao stopped cracking melon seeds and asked, "Is that so?"
After a pause, Ye Qiaoqiao no longer cared about Xu Wan's affairs. There was no need to worry about such an insignificant person.
Ye Qiaoqiao waved her hand. "Who cares? Xu Wan will never be as high and mighty as before. Speaking of which, Ye Shuang isn't having a good time either. Those who bullied us are finally getting their comeuppance."
Li Ruanruan nodded.
There are still many feelings. In fact, Ye Shuang wanted to be noble, and she got it, but she was trapped in that harem.
Xu Wan claimed to be the most noble lady in the capital, and was high and mighty, but in the end she fell into disrepute and lost all her reputation.
It's retribution.
On the contrary, she and Ye Qiaoqiao are doing well after going around in circles.
It's a happy ending after all the hard work.
But they also planned it with great effort, resisted this bad fate, and fought for themselves.
She will never forget that Ye Qiaoqiao worked day and night to embroider Suzhou embroidery in order to win a marriage with the Gu family, and her hands were covered with blisters.
And she finally got what she wanted.
In fact, she had never dreamed that she and Ye Yunchu would end up like this today, and that they would become rebellious together and live without regard for the world.
Ye Yunchu also took many steps towards her with determination.
They love each other and have decided to be together. They will also face many difficulties and unknowns together.
Li Runrun was chatting with Ye Qiaoqiao about parenting tips.
I just heard the noise outside.
Then the maid knelt before her and said, "Oh no, Master, the Master is seriously injured and covered in blood. Please go and have a look."
Li Runrun stood up hurriedly, not even caring about knocking over the teacup beside her, and ran out in a hurry.
Ye Qiaoqiao asked the maid: "Which master?"
The maidservant was trembling, obviously she had never seen such a scene before. She was very frightened and said in a trembling voice: "Ye, Master Ye."
"What?"
Ye Qiaoqiao was so frightened that her face turned pale and she stood up quickly: "How is this possible?"
Ye Yunchu is now in a high position of power and is about to succeed the position of Prime Minister, which means he is second only to the emperor and above everyone else.
Who can hurt him?
Could it be Xu Wan's revenge?
After all, he was her older brother, so Ye Qiaoqiao hurriedly chased after him with a pale face.
But Ye Yunchu was really lying on a stretcher covered in blood, being carried in by the secret guards.
Li Ruanruan had already knelt down and held his hand. Her face was even paler than hers, almost bloodless.
But unlike Ye Qiaoqiao who was terrified and dared not move, Li Runrun calmly arranged things: "Go get the doctor from the nearest clinic, and then call all the famous doctors in the capital. No matter how much it costs, go!"
Compared to Li Runrun's seriousness, Ye Yunchu seemed a little casual.
He was even smiling, holding Li Ruanruan's hand: "The imperial decree has been issued. I will come to marry you soon. You must prepare well. And there is bad news. I have been demoted. The demotion is very bad. You have to accompany me to suffer."
Ye Qiaoqiao felt like she must have been scared silly. What did she hear?
She must be hallucinating.
turn out to be.
Ye Yunchu caused a big fuss in the Marquis' Mansion, which made the old lady, the Marquis' wife, and the Marquis very angry.
The Marquis’ stick was broken, but Ye Yunchu’s heart was not broken.
It was the emperor who issued an edict, approving Ye Yunchu's decision to marry into the Li family in exchange for his great achievement in this inspection.
Then came another imperial decree. Because Ye Yunchu disregarded the greater good, exhibited improper conduct, and acted impulsively, he was unfit for important positions. He was exiled from the Marquisate, stripped of his title of Crown Prince and his position as Governor, and exiled to a small county in a remote and desolate region as magistrate. He was ordered to take up his post immediately after the wedding, without delay.
