Chapter 457 Angry
As soon as the eunuch who announced the imperial decree left, Li Taohua became so angry that she smashed things.
She picked up the teacup and held it up, but looked at the delicate pattern on the teapot and then realized that the teacups were a set and would not match if she smashed this one, so she put it down again.
She picked up the vase next to her and recognized that it was an antique. She had picked it out herself and it cost her a thousand and two taels of silver. She put it down reluctantly.
Tang Dafu was worried that she might hurt herself, so he kept supporting her with his hands. When he saw that she had calmed down, he stayed by her side, fearing that she would suddenly want to smash something again.
"I'm so angry!" Li Taohua was furious. "This Prince Zhong's mansion is haunted by ghosts! What kind of person is Princess Yuanying? She actually wants to marry into the Tang family? Let alone our brother Chen, who is so beautiful, even if he is ordinary-looking and has an ordinary official position, he would not marry such a vicious woman. They can't force us, they can't plot against us, and they just force themselves on us. It's really abominable."
Tang Luwu and his sister, as well as Qin Huiyin, looked at Tang Yichen who was sitting next to them drinking tea. All of their beautiful eyes were filled with worry.
"Are you still in the mood to drink tea?" Li Taohua looked at Tang Yichen, "If this vicious woman marries you, your life will be over. Even if you don't touch her, she is still the mistress of this family, and all of us will be at her mercy. She is also a royal relative, you dare not make her angry. If she gets wronged and makes a scene in the palace, all of us will have our heads moved. You can't marry her even if you marry a beggar."
"The imperial edict did not say when to marry her, and getting married is not a matter of one or two days, so there is no need to rush." Tang Yichen said, "I still have official business to attend to, so I will go to work first. You should go to bed early."
Li Taohua pointed at Tang Yichen's back and said, "Look, I'm so worried about this kid, but he's fine. If he dares to marry that vicious woman, we'll split up and live separately."
Qin Huiyin said, "Mother, my eldest brother is right. The imperial decree has been issued. There is no point in being anxious now. Getting married is not something that can be done in a day or two. Don't be anxious. Just slowly find a way to withdraw."
Tang Yi smiled and said, "That Princess Yuanying is a useless person. Such a useless person may not live to see the day of marriage."
Li Taohua stared at Tang Yi and smiled: "You are a doctor, not a poison doctor, don't do anything rash. Prince Zhong's Mansion has already caught up with you about what happened before. If you cause any more trouble, no one can save you."
They are royal relatives, how can they be killed whenever they want? If they were killed and the cause of death was found to be wrong, the heads of the whole family would be enough to be chopped off.
"Mom, don't worry about it for now, we will handle it. Take care of yourself and don't be so angry." Qin Huiyin advised.
"Yes, your temper is so strong." Tang Dafu comforted him, "The children have grown up, and they will take care of these things. They will handle them... Ouch, wife, my ears are going to fall off."
Li Taohua pinched Tang Dafu's ear and said, "Who has a better life than you? You don't have to worry about food or clothes, you don't have to worry about money, and your children have become successful. You must be God's biological son, right?"
Qin Huiyin brought some rice dumplings with fermented rice into Tang Yichen's study. She put the midnight snack aside, sat opposite Tang Yichen, and read a book.
Tang Yichen was almost done with his work and when he stopped to rest, he noticed Qin Huiyin's presence.
"Why didn't you call me when you came?"
"You just went to the Ministry of Industry, so you must first adapt to the official duties there. I don't have anything else to do, so it's the same if I wait for you here. The dumplings were still a little hot just now, so now is the best time to eat them. You can eat first."
Tang Yichen tasted the rice dumplings and said, "Today's rice dumplings are sweeter than before."
"You're feeling so bitter right now, of course you need to eat something sweet."
"Nonsense. How can you be so sad, brother?"
"Just because you don't say it doesn't mean you're fine. You always hide all your emotions in your heart because you are the eldest and the backbone of the Tang family. Everyone else can panic, but you can't."
Tang Yichen ate the glutinous rice balls and said, "Yinyin, I'm not sad. With you guys by my side, I feel it's worth it no matter what I do. This marriage really caught me off guard. But I've already made up my mind and know what to do. It's just that the emperor has just granted me a marriage, so I can't find a way to get rid of it right away, otherwise it will bring trouble to the Tang family."
"It's my fault for giving you such a bad idea. If you hadn't been promoted, and Prince Zhong's Mansion was afraid of you and released me, they wouldn't have been so anxious to use such means to force you."
"My promotion is a good thing. You are trying to help me achieve merit and gain attention. Why do you blame yourself? In other words, the emperor is testing me by granting me marriage at this time. He is testing whether I am obedient enough and can be used by him. I will accept this marriage first, and I will deal with other things according to circumstances! Princess Yuanying is disabled and in poor health. No one can predict what will happen in the future."
Who knows, she might not even live to see the day of her wedding.
"The worst outcome is that Princess Yuanying marries me and we separate and live separately. However, I will not let this worst outcome happen."
Seeing that Tang Yichen still had so many official duties, Qin Huiyin asked, "Can I take a look at the documents of the Ministry of Works? I can't help with the affairs of the Censorate, but I may be able to help with the affairs of the Ministry of Works."
"Okay, come here." Tang Yichen waved his hand. "I've just been transferred to the Ministry of Industry, and there are many things I need to adapt to. Don't tell me, no matter how smart I am, I don't understand how these drawings work."
"I can be your teacher in this regard." Qin Huiyin came closer. "The Ministry of Industry is indeed a place where all the great talents in the world gather. These drawings are so exquisite."
Chen Yu walked in from outside and said to Qin Huiyin, "Second Miss, Miss Zhilan said she wants to see you for something."
"Okay, I understand." Qin Huiyin responded and looked at Tang Yichen, "Brother, I'll go take a look first."
"good."
Qin Huiyin came out of the study and saw Zhilan coming towards her: "What's wrong?"
"Master Bai is ill, and it looks serious." Zhilan said, "The Second Young Master rushed over to see him, but he asked you to come over."
"Then go and have a look!" Qin Huiyin turned around and said to Chen Yu, "Tell my eldest brother that I have something to do and leave first, and come to the study to see him tomorrow."
"yes."
Qin Huiyin brought Zhilan to Puyang Qiubai's courtyard.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Puyang Qiubai screaming in pain.
"Press him down and don't let him move, then tie him up." Tang Yi said with a smile.
As soon as Qin Huiyin entered the room, she saw Mo Yan and Mo Yu tying up Puyang Qiubai with ropes.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
"Sister, this Master Bai has mania. I have to control him first and then prescribe medicine for him, otherwise he may easily hurt others." Tang Yi explained with a smile.
