Fortunately, Mr. Ye was not a stingy person. He was just visiting the patient and supporting the Zhao family, not really being a guest. He was very generous in forgiving Zhao Xing's apology, and comforted him, asking him not to mind.
Ye Tiance was very worried about Zhao Letong: "Can I go see Tongtong?"
Zhao Xing apologized, "My younger sister just took some medicine and went to bed. When she feels better, she and her nephews will come to play with you."
"Okay, as long as Tongtong is okay, I'll come again tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you for your consideration, young master."
Seeing that the child was fine, Old Duke Ye stood up and said goodbye: "You take good care of the child. This child is a precious gem. You have to be careful with him. We will go back first and visit again another day."
"Thank you so much for coming. My father is accompanying the eldest princess to discuss important matters. Please forgive me."
Old Duke Ye didn't think much about it and asked casually, "What are they discussing?"
"You know Prince Su is a little disrespectful to the eldest princess. Father feels sorry for her. It's not easy for us to say anything about this matter, nor to interfere. After all, it's an internal matter of the royal family."
"You're right. It's really not easy to interfere. But Prince Su is really going too far. The princess's efforts are seen by everyone in the world. How dare he disrespect her? What an ungrateful old man."
Duke Ye had experienced war and knew the difficulty and cruelty of fighting. He knew how difficult the situation was back then. He experienced it personally and was even more grateful for the eldest princess' sacrifice.
Prince Su dared to disrespect the eldest princess, and Duke Ye was the first to disagree.
Zhao Xing personally escorted them out. With the support of the old Duke, Prince Su could not cause any trouble and would make them pay the price sooner or later.
…
The eldest princess had dinner at home. Seeing that Zhao Letong was still asleep, she said goodbye and left. Zhao Biao personally sent her back.
The eldest princess went out in a hurry and came on horseback. When she returned, Zhao Biao sent her in the mansion's carriage. In order to avoid suspicion, he rode a horse to escort her.
This scene was seen by Zou Jinglan who was out shopping. Her daughter, Tao Yu, was with her. Her surname was Tao and her maiden name was Yu. She was only fifteen years old this year, but she did not have any of the innocence and liveliness of a young girl. Instead, she supported her carefully like a young wife, as if she was very afraid of her mother.
When Zou Jinglan saw the carriage escorted by Zhao Biao, anger flashed in her eyes. Who was this carriage for?
He rushed forward, grabbed Zhao Biao's reins, and smiled provocatively, "Brother-in-law, long time no see. You're still as dashing as ever. Where are you going?"
Zhao Biao looked unlucky. Why did he meet her again?
"Do I need to explain to you where I'm going? Let go and don't delay my business."
"Don't let go. Is it wrong for me to care about my brother-in-law? Although my sister is gone, we are the closest relatives. My brother-in-law helped me find a good marriage, and I can't thank him enough.
Who is the distinguished guest sitting in this carriage? Do I know her? Brother-in-law, don't be embarrassed. Even if you remarry, I won't stop you from having a good time. I just want to see who is so powerful that can make you, a blockhead, open your mind? You always say that you miss my sister and don't want to get married.
Zhao Biao's face was gloomy: "Get out of the way, don't force me to beat you, you said you are so old, can't you live your own life?
You have to keep complaining and looking for trouble. Believe it or not, I will talk to Zhang Zhao and make your marriage fall through.
"A woman your age is usually a widow. How can you be so determined to get married?"
Zou Jinglan was shameless and invincible. She chuckled and said, "Brother-in-law, you are wrong to say that. Who said that women must remain widows?
I am only in my thirties. If I live to sixty, I have only lived half of my life. Why should I spend the rest of my life staying alone in an empty room?
When my dead husband was alive, I was able to abide by the code of conduct for a wife and not cheat on him. I was already very moral.
I'm not married, I haven't done anything wrong to anyone. But you, my brother-in-law, are a man, and it's only natural for you to marry a wife and a concubine. Are you really going to stay with me for my sister?"
"What do you care? Go away, don't block my way and delay my work."
"No, I have to see who the distinguished guest is in the carriage. I'll leave after I see."
Zhao Biao wanted to slap her in the face. How could he have such a sister-in-law?
Zou Jinglan said to herself, "It's definitely not someone from your house. You don't need to escort her so carefully. Do I know her? If you don't let me see her, I won't be able to eat or sleep, so I have to go find you."
Zhao Biao: “…”
At this moment, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Nanny Kong got out of the carriage and moved a stool. Zou Jinglan saw a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes. The oriental pearls on the shoe surface were bigger than the pearl flowers on her head.
Then there was the lake blue dress, a pair of delicate and slender hands, and armor inlaid with various gems.
As soon as Zou Jinglan saw the armor, she knew that something was wrong. Apart from the ladies in the palace, who else was qualified to wear armor?
Sure enough, when the eldest princess came out, her face was so elegant and beautiful that people on the whole street subconsciously stopped and stared at her.
"You, who are you?"
Zou Jinglan did not have the honor to meet the eldest princess, but when she saw her dress, her aura, and her beauty, she, who had always been shameless, felt ashamed of herself.
"This is Her Royal Highness the Princess. Why don't you kneel down and salute? Do you want to die?"
Zhao Biao was very sorry: "I am sorry for disturbing Your Highness."
The princess smiled dignifiedly, "Who is this? How dare he stop your General Zhao's horse? How bold and arrogant! I have never seen such an arrogant person before."
Zhao Biao said, "My wife's sister is betrothed to General Zhang Zhao, and they will be married soon."
