Chapter 39 Silver-like Pewter Spear Head
Two women came. The older one was wearing a long dress in the color of imperial concubines. Her hair bun looked very simple. She was dressed rather plainly. She had a gentle and virtuous temperament, and she made people feel approachable just by looking at her.
The guy next to her was younger, but he was really eye-catching.
She was wearing a flamboyant and bright red dress. Every time she walked, the dark patterns between the folds of her skirt appeared like waves. Her black hair was tied into a flying bun, and there was a small red gem pendant on her forehead, gently resting on her brow.
When everyone saw the red dress, they felt something and couldn't help but look to the other side.
Why... is this similar to the dress worn by the loyal and brave Marquis's fiancée?
No.
wrong.
It should be that the skirt of the fiancée of the Loyal and Brave Marquis was similar to the other one.
It would have been fine if the real owner didn't show up. When she appeared, the noble ladies immediately recognized that this was the dress that the owner of Jinxiu Pavilion had recommended.
As for the one Leng Qianqian was wearing, needless to say, it must be a replica.
It’s a pity that only a rough appearance was imitated, but the details could not be imitated, whether it was the pattern or the embroidery skills, not to mention the high-quality fabric.
In fact, Leng Qianqian's dress would also look good if worn outside, but when it comes to wearing the same clothes, whoever is ugly will be embarrassed.
When she was the only one standing here, it seemed quite realistic.
Now...
Not to mention other people, even Yin Xu himself couldn't help but look at the figure walking towards him.
I thought Leng Qianqian was already very beautiful, but now, after meeting her, I realize how stunning red is!
The skin slightly exposed was as white as snow, almost blinding the eyes.
With her bright and elegant looks, coupled with this outfit, she would be a beautiful scenery just standing there, making Leng Qianqian look like trash in comparison.
"Marquis, why is Sister Ye here? Could it be..." Leng Qianqian was the first to come to her senses. She was a little panicked. The first thing she did after calming down was to whisper to Yin Xu, "Could it be that she heard the news from somewhere and came to the palace in the name of the Marquis' Mansion?"
That's right.
The people who came were Ye Qiongying and Mrs. Hua.
When Yin Xu heard this, he quickly came to his senses from the amazement of Ye Qiongying's appearance and frowned.
He thought so too.
He was beaten as soon as he went out a few days ago, so he naturally did not spread the news of the divorce.
Could it be that the Ye family is so shameless that they dare to use the reputation of their Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion to enter the palace to meet the emperor?
and……
There are other colleagues here. If Ye Qiongying says something that shouldn't be said here, wouldn't the reputation of their Marquis' Mansion be completely lost?
Thinking of this, Yin Xu spoke directly:
"Ye Qiongying, why are you here? You and I have divorced, and we have agreed that the Ye family will no longer have any connection with the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. Even if your Ye family wants to find another way out, you shouldn't come to the palace in the name of our Marquis's Mansion!
If His Majesty knew, you would be guilty of deceiving the emperor!
I advise you to turn around and leave the palace now. For the sake of our past friendship, I will pretend that I don’t know about this matter.”
Ye Qiongying looked at Yin Xu as if he were a lunatic and simply disdained to pay any attention to him. She followed her aunt to the other side.
Everyone else stood aside and watched.
It just so happens that His Majesty hasn't summoned me yet, so I'm just standing here anyway and it doesn't matter if there's a good show to watch.
But is this Marquis Zhongyong mentally ill?
The daughter of the Ye family comes from a prominent family. Even though the elders of the Ye family are no longer around, their family background is definitely better than that of a declining loyal and brave marquis’s mansion.
Moreover, the Ye family no longer has any other descendants, let alone any relatives from other branches. All the property will belong to Ye Qiongying, the eldest daughter, in the future.
Marrying her may not bring as much help as the Ye family in its heyday, but it is still a gold mine.
Putting aside these external things, Miss Ye is so beautiful and can manage household affairs. In just three years, she was able to support Yin Xu from an unknown person to enter the court.
It can be said that it is definitely an excellent choice for the mistress of the house.
What about the other one? Her origin is unknown, she has nothing, and standing next to Miss Ye, she looks even more petty, even her skirt is a copy of someone else's.
Even if she was a concubine serving others, it would be considered a downgrade in taste to have a wife like Miss Ye in front of her, let alone directly replacing her.
It seems there is a reason why the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery has been declining from generation to generation.
I guess the Yin family members are not very smart!
He gave up such a good wife and is now driving his ex-wife out of the Taihe Palace?
Although the Ye family has no male heir, the whole family is loyal and brave. Even His Majesty, who is prone to madness, knows to support the Ye family.
Yin Xu is really not afraid of being killed.
Yin Xu's brain really wasn't working very well. It was normal before, but now that he's become love-brained, his already small brain doesn't have much capacity to store other things.
Seeing that Ye Qiongying did not respond, he went straight up to grab her arm and ordered her to go home.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, Ye Qiongying turned her wrist.
"Crack!"
After a loud noise, Yin Xu let out a scream, and his outstretched right arm hung limply at his side.
He had already been beaten twice in the past few days, and his wounds had not yet fully healed, and today his arm was broken.
If there weren't other people around, Yin Xu would have cried in pain.
"Ah! Marquis!" Leng Qianqian screamed and rushed forward, accidentally pressing Yin Xu's arm, causing him to scream again, "Sister Ye... Miss Ye! How could you be so cruel to the Marquis? A night of marriage is worth a hundred days of love. You are too cruel. The Marquis was afraid that you would offend His Majesty and bring disaster upon yourself, so he warned you, but you...but..."
She cried and sobbed, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Ye Qiongying watched coldly, patted the non-existent dust on her hands, and finally spoke:
"I'm sorry, but I don't have any one-night-marriage relationship with him. He's such a useless guy who broke the agreement to favor his concubine over his wife. Whoever wants him can have him."
When they first got married, they were just partners, so naturally there was no other development.
The two of them had already intended to take the matter further, but Leng Qianqian appeared at this moment.
Ye Qiongying was actually somewhat relieved that Ye Qianqian showed up in time. If it had been a little later, she would have felt even more sick.
He said this not to declare his innocence, but because he did not want to have any other connection with Yin Xu.
When the others heard this, they looked at Yin Xu, who had a miserable face, with interest.
Oh ~
It turns out that the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is not capable of this!
No wonder he gave up his beautiful wife and brought back such a concubine.
In this situation, he naturally couldn't control the noble lady, but with Leng Qianqian's helpless status, Yin Xu was completely able to make her dare not say anything and help him conceal the truth.
Of course Yin Xu wanted to explain.
However, his arm hurt so much that he couldn't speak, and he didn't know how to explain it.
Looking at the expressions of the others, you can tell that they definitely don't believe what Leng Qianqian said, and they even think that he asked Leng Qianqian to say that.
As for the actual action... he couldn't possibly take off his pants in broad daylight to let them identify him, right? !
It was painful and urgent. Yin Xu once again felt the suffocation that made him want to faint...
