Because we have to strike while the iron is hot and not let Xuanyuan Huaiyu regret it.
So Ye Qiu did not refuse Concubine Chen's kindness and let Xuanyuan Huaiyu send him back to the Duke of Xiangguo's Mansion.
But she hadn't thought of what to say yet, and was afraid of saying too much and making mistakes, so she remained silent the whole way.
Xuanyuan Huaiyu thought that this girl was discerning and would see that although he agreed to try getting along for three months, he actually did not have any real thoughts in his mind and it was impossible for him to have any romantic feelings. It was just an agreement for them to deceive their parents together first.
Therefore, he thought that Ye Qiu would take the initiative to politely refuse his mother's request and go home by herself, but he didn't expect that her silence was tantamount to her consent.
Xuanyuan Huaiyu had no choice but to see her off, feeling a bit unhappy along the way. He thought the girl would rush to say something to him, but unexpectedly she remained silent all the way.
I thought she was considerate, sensible and pragmatic, but I didn't expect that she was so ignorant and really wanted to send it myself.
I thought she would be pushy and would make small talk along the way and cause some trouble, but she just stayed quiet.
What does this girl mean?
Seeing that they were about to arrive at the Duke of Xiangguo's Mansion, Ye Qiu was overjoyed.
Normally, my father shouldn't be at home at this time, but his carriage just happened to turn in front of the house.
Coincidentally, I was thinking about how to put on a big show in front of my father. Now, as long as Xuanyuan Huaiyu is willing to cooperate, the first step has been completed.
So, Ye Qiu said to Xuanyuan Huaiyu with a stiff upper lip, "Because Concubine Chen is your mother, I didn't want to go against her wishes, so I obeyed her and asked you to send me back.
Now that my father is here, Your Highness, can you please return the favor and make things easier for me in front of my father so that I don't have to be called in and scolded every few days because of my marriage?"
When Xuanyuan Huaiyu heard this, he thought, okay, this means that I should send her back or she should give me face, and I should repay the favor she did for my mother and me.
But he was also a little curious, so he asked, "What do you want me to do?"
Ye Qiu said, "Your Highness, there is no need to do anything excessive. It would be wrong to do so. I would just trouble Your Highness to personally escort me down from the carriage."
I have to let my father see me.
"Then could Your Majesty be a little more polite to my father?
I know that military commanders are all casual, and the prince is used to being free and easy. In the past, when addressing people, just express the meaning. My father was the same.
But I hope Your Majesty can follow the rules today."
Ye Qiu knew that this was how his father treated His Majesty Xuanyuan Hao. Sometimes he called him Your Majesty, Your Majesty, and sometimes he called him Big Brother, Old Hao, or Boss. When he was drunk, he even slammed the table at His Majesty and called himself "Laozi", saying things like "I won't go" and "I don't believe it" and so on.
After waking up, he went to the imperial study to confess his crime, and was called in by the emperor to be scolded.
As far as she knew, Xuanyuan Huaiyu called her father a lot of different things. He had called him uncle, grandpa, ancestor, bastard, and even big brother.
But this random name-calling only applies to these few people. They still follow the rules when dealing with others.
Once Xuanyuan Huaiyu treated his father according to the rules, it would seem abnormal to his father Ye Zhou.
But what Ye Qiu wanted was for his father to think this was abnormal.
It was not until Xuanyuan Huaiyu saw Ye Zhou and the Duke of Xiangguo's Mansion that he really matched the names with the characters. He had been absent-minded before and didn't pay much attention to what his mother said.
No matter what she said, he rejected the girl, but later he was persuaded by her for some unknown reason.
Now I see Ye Zhou, then look at Ye Qiu. Is this my uncle's daughter? The cabbages in my uncle's field have grown this big?
Just follow the rules and be polite, otherwise my uncle will think I did something to his daughter and go back to my father to complain about me.
Xuanyuan Huaiyu did not leave Ye Qiu behind, but got off the carriage first and then helped Ye Qiu get off.
Accompanying Ye Qiu, he walked up to the stunned Ye Zhou, bowed politely, and asked, "How is the Duke these days?"
Ye Zhou was completely confused.
What does this mean? What's this kid up to? Is he putting my country before my family? Then I have to follow the rules.
So, Ye Zhou also replied politely and respectfully: "Greetings, Your Highness. Thank you for your concern. I am doing well recently."
After saying this, the two of them stared at each other, feeling a little awkward.
So just as Xuanyuan Huaiyu was about to open his mouth as usual, Ye Qiu next to him made a soft "hmm" sound with a slight cough.
Xuanyuan Huaiyu swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. After a few twists in his stomach, he said, "Uncle, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."
Ye Zhou was confused, but since this concerned his daughter, he still had his bottom line. He didn't let this kid get away with it, and immediately replied, "My dear nephew, please wait. I have a few words to ask you."
Ye Qiu knew something was wrong when he saw this. His relationship with Xuanyuan Huaiyu was not as good as the relationship between his father and him, so there was no need for him to lie for himself.
He immediately grabbed his father and said, "Father, the prince is in charge of the East and West Camps. He asked for leave today to go to Concubine Chen's palace. Please don't delay his work."
Ye Zhou immediately grasped the key point: "You also came back from Concubine Chen's palace?" He then looked at the box in the maid's hand and asked: "What is this?"
Ye Qiu replied, "Yes, father. I just came back from Concubine Chen's palace. This is a pair of bracelets given by Concubine Chen."
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xuanyuan Huaiyu escaped.
