Chapter 164: Blocked streets

The old emperor turned the peach blossom hairpin in his hand and looked up at Ji Lingxue, "This silver hairpin is your mother's thing, but your mother's name is Liu Mei'e?"
Ji Lingxue nodded, "Yes, then you know my mother..." Are you my biological father?
It is common in this section of the script that the amorous emperor young romantic loves a certain girl from the people, and the two have a private life, but unfortunately, the two people in love are separated for various reasons. The girl left, leaving the emperor with all kinds of things. A fond memory, after knowing that for many years, the emperor saw that the girl was carrying their token of love, only to realize that it was his own bones and blood. When the girl left, but was pregnant with his child, all kinds of sentimental and helplessness left behind. sigh.
What a picture, it would happen to him!
Ji Lingxue murmured inwardly, staring at the old emperor's somewhat distracted eyes, waiting for his answer.
The old emperor said: "Ahem, a lot of people were in the hall just now, but I didn't ask carefully, so that Ru Ge brought you over for a chat. The girl's mother is a strange woman..."
Twenty years ago, although Liu Mei'e was born in the scholarly family, her character was rebellious. Because she didn't like the marriage arranged by her father, she ran away from home.
Liu Mei'e had learned some kung fu, and her escape from marriage seemed to be smooth. After the money she had left with her was squandered, she began to ponder her livelihood. When she came to Dayan, she found business opportunities here and started doing silk business.
The old emperor was also one of Liu Mei'e's admirers. At that time, he was the prince and took his brothers to take care of Liu Mei'e's business whenever he had free time. The two gradually became familiar with each other. When he deliberately expressed his heart, he was met by Liu Mei'e. Rejected, she said she had already decided to kiss.
After that, Liu Mei'e's business became bigger and bigger. He was also involved in court affairs and could not go out of the palace for a while. It was Liu Mei'e's 20th birthday. He sneaked out of the palace and took Liu Mei'e to the silver shop to order jewelry. A peach blossom silver hairpin was designed by him himself.
Within a few days, Liu Mei'e was picked up by her family. He never saw him again, let alone the jewelry in the silver shop. What surprised him even more was that Liu Mei'e's daughter would appear wearing this silver hairpin many years later. In front of him, everything is fate.
Ji Lingxue sighed, thinking that she was the illegitimate daughter of Emperor Dayan. It turned out that she was thinking too much. In this case, her mother Liu Mei'e was just the first love that Emperor Dayan could not ask for.
The old emperor sighed and said, "Girl, you look very similar to your mother. I wonder if the girl is married?" If not, it would be nice to point her to his son.
Ji Lingxue smiled and nodded, and the old emperor sighed regretfully again, "This is the first time for a girl to come to Dayan. You can let Ruge accompany you to go out. Dayan is also a good place."
Ji Lingxue had written about the old emperor, and Ru Ge took the topic and asked why the old emperor took Wei Chi Gongru away.
The old emperor's complexion turned cloudy, raised his hand and threw a crumpled ball of paper to Ruge for himself to see.
Ruge bent over and picked up the paper ball on the ground and unfolded, his eyebrows trembled, and the picture of Yuchi Gongru like a woman sucking blood was drawn vividly on the paper. Perhaps it was in a realistic effect. The cinnabar red blood almost wrapped the woman in the painting. It looks a bit oozing.
"This is?" Ruge tentatively asked. The old emperor was furious at the banquet just now. I wonder if anyone can be found who painted?
The old emperor said: "The flower maker has a very good chemical background. I can outline the character in a few strokes. You see, this room is clearly a respectful room. There is a calligraphy and painting for him on the wall."
Ji Lingxue's black line, why do you want to discuss issues so that outsiders like me don't evade it? She doesn't want to listen to these royal scandals.
Ru Ge nodded, "Really, I don't know where this painting came from?"
The old emperor's complexion darkened and said, "This is also where I really wonder. I just asked Fu Shou (the father-in-law next to the old emperor). He said that he took a nap, and when he woke up he found that he was kicking this in his arms. I sent it over immediately."
Fushou was the most trusted person around the old emperor, and the content on this piece of paper was nothing if he saw it. It was the most hated to catch the person who made the blame.
Ruge asked: "Father, the emperor thinks someone is going to be against the emperor's brother? Did he leave him in the palace?"
The old emperor nodded and shook his head, "This matter is too weird, it needs to be investigated thoroughly, okay, nothing is wrong, I am tired too, you all go back." After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and looked tired to the back of the chair. One depends on closing your eyes and resting your mind.
Ji Lingxue held the silver hairpin thoughtfully, and she became a little silent when she came out of the palace. The owner of the silver hairpin found it, but the doubt in her heart was solved.
Ruge patted Ji Lingxue on the shoulder and said: "Don't think about it, your mother is such a principled person, how can you get pregnant before you are unmarried? All this is just someone deliberately planted, if you really doubt your biological father, why not go Ask Ji Baichuan?"
Ji Lingxue raised her head and smiled, "Yes, I'm just annoying myself, like a song, thank you."
You smiled like a song, "Wei Chi Gongru met you and the prince, this is bad luck, the father said that he was naturally violent and punished him behind closed doors, and now the father intends to make peace with Dong Qi and envoy Dong Qi’s mission. Leave it to me. Why don't you and the prince stay for a few more days, then we will leave for Dongqi together."
Ji Lingxue thought for a while and said: "Even though Yuchi Gongru was punished, his strength is still there. I am afraid that he will be unwilling and won't let the prince and I go back smoothly."
The two were talking, suddenly the horse whispered privately, kicked and pulled the carriage forward, and the carriage that went into the palace like Song sent Xiao Yichen and Bai Mo. This carriage belonged to the palace, so I didn't expect to be so easily frightened.
Ru Ge drove the curtain and looked out. The coachman had already disappeared. The horse rushed into the street with a bang. The cart drove the street vendors on both sides of the joint into the air. Flying randomly, rushed to the butcher shop the next moment, the meat on the cutting board fell all over the floor, and several pieces were dropped by the wild dogs who rushed in.
Looking at the miserable situation in the street, Ru Ge said: "You really got it right."
The horse that the palace chooses to pull the carriage has always been mild-tempered and will not be so irritable. This horse must have been tampered with, and the person he has offended recently is just as respectful as a person.
Ru Gefei fell on his horse and began to train the horse. The people on the street pointed at Ruge and said: "The second prince... It turns out that the second prince smashed my vegetable stall. My two baskets of fresh vegetables are hard work. After two months of planting hard, I still hope to sell some money...Ah..."
"Second prince, you smashed my meat stall. There are old and young people on the villain, and all depend on the meat stall to support their families. If you smash it like this, we are going to drink Northwest Wind today. You must give it to us all. An explanation."
The people were talking more and more, and after waiting like a song to train a horse, he himself was surrounded by the people in the middle of the street, in a dilemma.
The people babbled like boiling water. Ji Lingxue sat in the carriage and looked at the sky speechlessly. This really gained the physique of a crow's mouth, what to say.
Ruge opened her purse at her waist and took out the two thousand taels of silver slips inside. Today, I can’t leave without spending some money. With a wave of his hand, the silver slips scattered in the air, floating on the ground like snow flakes. The people rushed to rush with their arms wide open.
Taking advantage of this gap, Ruge opened the door of the carriage and pulled Ji Lingxue out of the carriage, performing light work and leaving the street. As soon as the two of them disappeared, the people also rushed out of the cash tickets. When they looked at the carriage, there was still a figure like a song.
Yuchi Gongru, wearing a black cloak, was standing behind the window of a teahouse somewhere, watching the good show with cold eyes, and sneered: "Ru Ge, this is just the beginning. Since Chen Wang supported your superiors and deliberately suppressed this prince, this prince is broken. Your reputation depends on what you are fighting with me!"
Yuchi was like hooking his fingers, and immediately one of the guards stepped forward and bowed to salute, "Master."
Yuchi Gongru said: "You are going to spread the message now. It is said that the second prince turned into a Zenghua messenger and rode a carriage with a woman on the street. Unexpectedly, the horse was frightened and trampled on a street. The stalls chased for compensation. The second prince who affected the itinerary spent all his wealth and took the woman away. Remember to tell the story more beautifully and enter the palace as quickly as possible."
"Yes!" The guard stepped back silently, and Yu Chi Gongru's mouth made a playful smile.
Yuchi Gongru murmured to herself: "Ru Ge, the girl you like is probably by your side if it's not in the capital! Haha... It's really interesting, you are a grand prince of the kingdom of Yan, and you have a bright future, but you just like other countries. Woman, still a married woman..."
Ji Lingxue, who was pulled by Ruge, felt the feeling of flying again, the breeze was blowing, and the air was fresh.
She tilted her head, the room next to her was receding, and the gradually boiling voices could no longer be heard.
Ji Lingxue asked, "Why are we going back to the house like this?"
No matter how you look at it, it's like running away, isn't it dissipating money? Those people will naturally scatter and give them a way.
Ruge coughed, "That... the coachman is gone, I don't know how to drive a carriage... Besides, it will be faster to return home."
Ji Lingxue also thought about it, and stopped talking about concentrating on enjoying the scenery. Ru Ge looked sideways at Ji Lingxue's smiling face, then returned to his senses and continued to look at the road, but she slowed down a little by tapping her toes on the roof tiles.
Ji Lingxue and Ruge returned to the mansion. Xiao Yichen and Bai Mo were sitting opposite each other in the flower hall drinking tea. As soon as Ruge and Ji Lingxue stepped in from the courtyard, Xiao Yichen and Bai Mo stood up and looked at Ji Lingxue.
Bai Mo's eyes were full of gossip, "Wang Hao, what did Emperor Dayan leave you in the palace?" I barely said, you won't be the princess of Dayan country, are you?
Compared with Bai Mo's excitement, Xiao Yichen's complexion was much more certain, but he was a prince, and he was relatively indifferent.
Ji Lingxue gave Bai Mo a look of "you think too much" and said to Xiao Yichen: "Emperor Dayan said he knew my mother. My mother was doing silk business in Dayan 20 years ago. They are friends."
