The first year of Kangding, mid-spring.
The green willows hang down their branches, and the grass grows and the warblers fly.
"Sister Chunni, is His Majesty in there?"
The young man who spoke was dressed in purple, with black hair tied up high, a face as beautiful as spring flowers, extremely handsome, and bright eyes.
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and his smile, as bright as a spring breeze, made people stare at him in a daze.
He is indeed the most handsome man in Beijing!
The palace maid Chunni was already feeling a bit shy before she answered.
The second young master of the Ye family is so handsome. It would be great if she could marry a man like him in the future.
Just thinking about it makes me happy.
Chunni said, "Yes, yes, Master Ye, please come in. His Majesty is waiting for you."
The young boy Ye Yushi stepped over the threshold. He seemed to have thought of something, then took a step back and walked out.
Chunni watched Second Young Master Ye go in and out, and was looking at her in confusion.
Is there something on her face? Why is Second Young Master Ye looking at her like that?
Ye Yushi looked at the large and small packages in the bamboo basket. These were candies, which he had carefully selected and prepared for half a day. He almost forgot about them, so he picked up a bag of candies and gave it to Chunni with a smile on his face. "Sister Chunni, please have some candies to share in the good luck!"
"Ah?" Chunni didn't understand and stretched out her hand.
Ye Yushi placed the wedding candy steadily into Chunni's hand, then walked quickly into the house with brisk steps.
This is the warm room of Wende Hall. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. Your Majesty likes to handle state affairs in the warm room. Your Majesty also likes to stay in the warm room in his spare time.
"I heard the magpie's call early in the morning and thought there might be some happy event. Sure enough, Master Ye entered the palace."
Eunuch Luo Shen walked towards Ye Yushi. He was less than forty years old and dressed in a brown eunuch's uniform with a leather waist belt. Eunuch Luo looked at the bamboo basket Yushi was carrying, which was stuffed to the brim, and said with a smile, "Young Master Ye, is the wedding coming soon?"
Ye Yushi nodded, smiling broadly, "I've come to the palace in advance to treat you to some wedding candy."
He picked out the largest bag from the bamboo basket, held it in his arms, and handed the entire basket to Luo, "Mr. Luo, the rest is yours. Please share the extra with others. I'm going to look for His Majesty's brother."
Luo Nei Shi took the bamboo basket and said, "Oh, this is the first time I've eaten wedding candy given by someone else. Master Ye, I wish you and your future wife a happy and harmonious life together."
"Thank you. When I get married, I will bring my bride to meet you and your majesty."
Ye Yushi said a few more words to Luo Nei Shi, then walked inside. Luo Nei Shi held the wedding candy and called other people over to distribute the candy.
"His Majesty."
After Ye Yushi bowed and greeted the guests, he sat cross-legged at the table. Opposite him was a young man of about twenty-four or twenty-five years old.
The man was wearing a scarlet robe with wide sleeves and a cross collar. He had a natural air of nobility about him, and his features were regular and his eyes were gentle.
He is the eldest son of the late emperor and the current king of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Xi, also known as Zixu.
Zhao Zixu's eyes fell on the package in Ye Yushi's arms, and his tone was a little teasing, "So you came to the palace just to give wedding candy? How can you send wedding candy in advance? When your wedding date is set, I will prepare a generous gift for you."
"The wedding date hasn't been set yet."
Zhao Zixu asked curiously, "No decision yet? Isn't it a bit early to send your wedding candy?"
Ye Yushi curled his lips and said, "My wedding date hasn't been set yet, but it will be soon. My father and mother have already gone to my father-in-law's house to propose."
Zhao Zixu laughed heartily, pointing at the young man in front of him, "Hahaha! Your family hasn't even paid the betrothal gifts yet, and you're already sending out wedding candy. Ye Yushi, aren't you a little anxious? Hahaha! You're in such a hurry to marry off your good sister, and she seems to be only fifteen years old."
"Isn't your sweetheart still young?" Zhao Zixu looked at Ye Yushi with a look as if he were a beast.
"My sister Fushu is sixteen."
Ye Yushi angrily corrected His Majesty that he was wrong, saying that his sister Fushu had grown up and was no longer a little girl.
He turned his back, not wanting to pay any attention to his brother, the crown prince who had recently ascended the throne.
Zhao Zixu looked at the angry young man and couldn't help laughing.
Blame him?
Who used to always say that his fiancée's younger sister was growing so slowly?
He naturally thought that Ye Yushi's fiancée was not yet of age.
Ye Yushi turned around again and looked at Zhao Zixu with a resentful look in her eyes, like a bullied young wife.
"Enough, enough. You're making yourself look like a shrew." Zhao Zixu glanced at Ye Yushi, and his eyes were filled with disgust.
Ye Yushi: "..."
Your Majesty, do you want to do this?
"Give me the wedding candy." He didn't care whether the wedding candy was delivered early or not, since it was delivered, he had to accept it.
Ye Yushi quickly gave the big bag of wedding candy to Zhao Zixu.
Zhao Zixu took the wedding candy and called a palace maid to put it away. He also called for the palace maid to bring the chessboard and chess pieces. They had learned from the same chess master and their skills were comparable. They often competed to win or lose.
After playing chess for an unknown amount of time, Eunuch Luo ordered the palace maid to bring in tea.
Then, the palace maid withdrew.
"Yushi, how about I marry into your family?" Zhao Zixu said.
Ye Yushi blurted out, "No! My sister is only thirteen!"
He and Your Majesty are good brothers, but Your Majesty cannot marry his sister.
Zhao Zixu, “…”
What nonsense is this guy talking about? Who wants to marry his sister!
He wasn't talking about him, was he?
Zhao Zixu really wanted to pry open Ye Yushi's brain to see what strange structure it was, "I'm talking about in-laws!"
"My concubine Zhaoyi gave birth to a little prince for me. How about marrying your daughter to be my princess?"
"this……"
He has not yet married and has no daughter, but Your Majesty is thinking of marrying his children to his.
Who is anxious?
He hesitated for a moment and then quickly agreed.
He was engaged at a young age, so he has experience in this area.
He is the example. When he got engaged to Sister Fushu, Sister Fushu had just turned one month old.
"As you wish." The young man's eyes curved into a smile, as if he had gotten a great bargain.
One of them acted on impulse, and the other agreed without thinking carefully, without considering the actual situation at all.
It is certain that Zhao Zixu will have a son, but it is hard to say whether Ye Yushi will have a daughter in the future.
If he didn't have a daughter, this marriage would naturally not take place, especially if his daughter was many years younger than the little prince Zhao Zixu.
What if, by the time the little prince reaches marriageable age, his daughter is still a baby, or even hasn't been born yet...
After this day, Ye Yushi was busy preparing for his wedding with his sister Fushu. He was extremely busy, such as looking at the almanac to choose an auspicious date, planning the layout of the wedding scene, how many guests to invite, how many tables to set up for the banquet, what dishes to choose for the banquet, etc. He rarely went to the palace.
When Zhao Zixu first ascended the throne, state affairs were heavy, and even when he had free time, he was not summoned to the palace.
Until one day more than half a month later, Ye Yushi entered the palace in a daze, seeking comfort.
When Zhao Zixu saw Ye Yu so frustrated for the first time, he asked him what happened and learned a shocking news.
Ye Yushi’s fiancée ran away.
To be precise, she ran away from her marriage.
