Chapter 386 Return to Prince Yu’s Mansion
Unfortunately, the enemy was in the Great Xia Imperial City. He would never feel safe letting Chu Li come here until they were eliminated.
When Nanny Zhou, who was beside Empress Dowager Xuanren, saw this scene, she burst into tears.
She said excitedly: "Empress Dowager, Prince Yu is back, the young prince is back!"
Empress Dowager Xuanren was anxious, as she really wanted to see her grandson with her own eyes.
But she couldn't see it.
She ordered Madam Zhou, "Go and close the door. Don't let anyone get close."
"Yes." Nanny Zhou closed the door from the outside.
After the door closed, Empress Dowager Xuanren helped Ye Hanting up.
Jun Yaohua recounted the story of Ye Hanting's assassination attempt.
Empress Dowager Xuanren looked solemn, and she reminded Ye Hanting.
"Child, someone wants to kill you. Don't trust anyone except Yaohua and Aijia."
Ye Hanting nodded, "Grandson understands."
"I will have the Black Gold Guards protect you closely, so please be careful."
"Well, thank you, Grandmother."
Empress Dowager Xuanren was in a very good mood and asked Jun Yaohua, "Is your brother Jun Ling still as handsome as he was when he was a child?"
Jun Yaohua said proudly: "Not only is he good-looking, he is simply a banished immortal handsome man, even better looking than my father!"
Empress Dowager Xuanren's smile deepened. Jun Ling has been smart, likable and good-looking since he was a child.
"Have you married and had children in Da Chu?" she continued to ask.
Ye Hanting smiled slightly, "I haven't married yet, but I have someone I like."
The corners of Jun Yaohua's lips twitched. See, the Royal Grandmother definitely doesn't like Brother Jun Ling being with a man.
"What kind of person is she?" Empress Dowager Xuanren was very interested.
Ye Hanting raised the corners of his lips, "Independent and confident, outstanding in ability, quirky, stunningly beautiful."
Jun Yaohua looked at Ye Hanting with her mouth wide open. This guy doesn't even blush when he lies. He is so quirky and stunningly beautiful?
Aren’t these all used to describe women?
If Chu Li were a woman, she would be stunningly beautiful.
Too bad he's a man.
The Empress Dowager Xuanren became happier the more she listened. "You describe a girl as having outstanding abilities? Whose family is she from? Is she a government official?"
Ye Hanting helped the Empress Dowager sit down. "She is an expert in both medicine and poison, has superb swordsmanship, knows a little bit about the mystical arts, and also understands government affairs. Anyway, you will know when you meet her."
Empress Dowager Xuanren smiled from ear to ear, "Such a powerful woman, my grandmother really wants to meet her."
Jun Yaohua was worried about Ye Hanting. Once you meet him and find out he’s a man, you’re done!
"Since you like each other, according to royal etiquette, we will bring the dowry and ask for her hand in marriage first, and then marry her with a state ceremony. What is her name?"
Ye Hanting didn't want to expose Chu Li's female identity, so he patiently explained, "Grandmother, you will definitely meet, wait until I resolve the crisis here."
Empress Dowager Xuanren smiled and nodded. She couldn't wait to hold her great-grandson.
She suddenly thought of Jun Ling's running away from home, so she asked, "Why did you leave?"
Ye Hanting lowered his eyes and said, "Don't worry, Grandmother. I came back just to find out the truth of what happened back then."
"Okay, go ahead and do it. If you encounter any difficulties, ask the Imperial Grandmother for help."
"Yes, grandson will keep it in mind."
In the imperial study, Jun Yunting was reviewing memorials.
The old eunuch, Eunuch Xu, came over quickly and said excitedly, "Your Majesty, I saw Princess Yaohua return!"
Jun Yunting put down his pen and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why doesn't she come to see me?"
Eunuch Xu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the princess is afraid that you will be angry. Just now, I saw her taking a man to see the Queen Mother."
"Man?" Jun Yunting instantly felt something was wrong. He stood up and went to Shoukang Palace, and Eunuch Xu immediately followed.
Ye Hanting met with the Empress Dowager and prepared to go back.
When he opened the door, he saw Jun Yunting, a man who had traumatized him for many years.
When Jun Yunting saw Ye Hanting's face, he was stunned. How come Jun Ling looked so much like him when he grew up?
People say nephews look like their uncles, why does Jun Ling look like him?
Could it be because they both look like the late emperor?
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Ye Hanting saluted to Jun Yunting calmly.
Jun Yunting slowly raised his hand. He had the natural temperament of an emperor, and his joy could not be concealed under his calm expression.
"Just come back."
Jun Yaohua came out and looked left and right, and said in surprise: "Father, brother Jun Ling looks so much like you!"
The two of them standing together, look even more alike.
Jun Yuan, who was not far away, came to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager and happened to hear Jun Yaohua's words.
He looked at the man standing opposite his father.
Jun Ling!
He is back.
Jun Yuan hid in the corner and eavesdropped on their conversation.
Jun Yunting smiled faintly, "We are a family, of course we look alike."
He bears some resemblance to his biological brother, Prince Yu, and also to their father.
Jun Yunting asked Ye Hanting how he had been living in Da Chu over the years?
Before Ye Hanting could say anything, Jun Yaohua started praising him.
Jun Yunting was amazed that Jun Ling could become the Grand Tutor on his own even though he had no background.
It turns out that they are from the Jun family!
Jun Yunting was in a very good mood and praised Ye Hanting, "You have won the top three prizes and become a tutor. Your uncle has long seen that you are very smart and have a great appearance."
Ye Hanting nodded slightly.
Jun Yunting noticed that he seemed a little distant, and guessed that he had just returned.
He put his hands behind his back and looked at Jun Yaohua seriously, "Do you know how worried your mother is about you? Go and apologize!"
Jun Yaohua stuck out her tongue and looked at Ye Hanting reluctantly, "Brother, I'm leaving."
"Okay." Ye Hanting smiled and looked at Jun Yunting, "Your Majesty, I want to go home to visit my parents."
"Go ahead." After Ye Hanting left, Jun Yunting told Eunuch Xu, "Use the prince's guard of honor to send the prince back to the palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Xu went to do it immediately.
In the dark, Jun Yuan gritted his teeth secretly, Jun Ling has been stronger than him since childhood.
Although they were born on the same day, he had never heard his father praise him.
On the contrary, my father often praises Jun Ling.
And now that Jun Ling is back, my father will value him even more.
The Imperial Guards led the way and escorted Ye Hanting back to Prince Yu's Palace with the prince's guard of honor.
The people who were watching along the way saw an extremely handsome man sitting on the royal carriage and exclaimed, "It's Prince Yu!"
"Prince Yu is back! He is so handsome and has an extraordinary demeanor!"
The people pushed and shoved and stood on tiptoe to look at Ye Hanting.
Chi Yan rode his horse proudly. Look, his master always attracts attention wherever he goes.
Ye Hanting returned to Prince Yu's Mansion.
Prince Yu and Princess Yu went to the door to greet them personally.
After seeing him, Princess Yu cried so hard that her eyes turned red.
Prince Yu's voice was also choked with sobs as he welcomed Ye Hanting into his home.
Prince Yu poured Ye Hanting a cup of tea with a choked voice.
"Ling'er, have some tea and tell your father how you have been living these years."
He handed the teacup to Ye Hanting.
