Chapter 195: A Bolt from the Blue
"Let's ask the Imperial Astronomical Bureau to pick a date and get this done! Huan'er is getting old, it's time for her to find a good family."
Queen Ma said angrily, "Look at what you said. You want to find a good day to get it done. Do you know that Ye Xuan will definitely agree?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately furious when he heard this, raised his eyebrows and grinned, "How dare he not agree? My daughter, Zhu Yuanzhang, cried and begged for marriage. If I give her to him, he should thank me!"
Empress Ma said angrily: "Those who know you know that you are marrying off your daughter, but those who don't think you are trying to steal your son-in-law! You are such a bandit!"
"Haha," Zhu Yuanzhang laughed, "As long as my daughter likes it, I will snatch it back even if I have to rob her."
Zhu Huan, who was standing by, blushed and felt extremely embarrassed. He stood up and ran away.
This caused Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma to laugh again, but Anqing was crying.
…………
Xiangyun Lane and Ye Mansion.
Ever since Ye Xuan was promoted to a thousand households and had the imperial plaque bestowed by Zhu Yuanzhang, Ye Xuan's family was upgraded from Ye's residence to Ye's mansion.
It has nothing to do with the area, it's purely a matter of the appearance of the card.
At this time, the Ye Mansion was filled with gloom and sorrow.
Ye Xuan sat in the main seat, looking at the Chang sisters who were crying and reluctant to leave, and Chang Sheng who was panting heavily and wished he could strangle Ye Xuan to death, and he suddenly felt a headache.
"You are such a good guy, Ye Xuan. Fortunately, I, Old Chang, still thought you were a man. I didn't expect you to play the game of seducing and then abandoning me!"
After a long silence, Chang Sheng couldn't help but speak.
Upon hearing this, the Chang sisters cried even harder.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan immediately raised his hand and said, "Hey, Brother Chang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! What do you mean by abandoning someone after having sex with them? I, Ye Xuan, didn't do anything to your two sisters from beginning to end. If you spread this out, who would people think I, Ye Xuan, am?"
"It's even more hateful that he didn't do anything!" Chang Sheng became even angrier.
Ye Xuan was stunned when he heard this. What else do you want me to do to your sister? Is this something a brother can say?
If you don’t know, you might think he’s a little turtle in a brothel.
However, Chang Sheng was very confident. He pointed at the Chang sisters and said, "My two sisters are so beautiful and graceful, yet you are not tempted by them. You even asked the emperor to let me take them away. I doubt you are a man!"
Ye Xuan didn't like what he heard, and he immediately retorted: "If you don't have to take responsibility, I can immediately prove whether I am a man or not!"
After saying that, Ye Xuan changed the subject again and said earnestly: "Brother Chang, you have seen that I am just a small Jinyiwei captain, only a fifth-rank official, how can I be worthy of two princesses?"
"Can you please stop making things difficult for me?"
"It's okay if you have a low position! As the son-in-law of our Chang family, are you still worried that your promotion won't be fast enough?"
Just as the two were arguing, a eunuch walked in quickly.
Ye Xuan looked carefully and found that it was his old acquaintance Yun Qi.
Chang Sheng obviously recognized Yun Qi and greeted him immediately.
However, Yun Qi only had Ye Xuan in his eyes. He walked straight towards Ye Xuan and congratulated him as he walked: "Congratulations, Captain Ye!"
Ye Xuan was immediately confused. Where did this happy event come from out of nowhere?
But Yun Qi smiled and said, "We'll tell you the truth in advance, don't let it slip when you enter the palace later?" Seeing Yun Qi being mysterious, Chang Sheng on the side was no longer in a hurry to greet him. He wanted to hear first about what good news Ye Xuan had, as he actually had to go to the palace to see the emperor.
Seeing Ye Xuan nodded in confusion, Yun Qi smiled and said, "My Lord, the Emperor is planning to marry the Emperor's eldest daughter to you. What do you think? Isn't this a great event?"
However, Ye Xuan almost fainted when he heard this.
This is not a good thing at all; it is simply bad news that will ruin your sexual happiness for the rest of your life!
"Hey, Captain Ye, what happened to you? Could it be that you have a heat stroke? It's not hot even now!"
Chang Sheng, who was standing by, jumped up in anger when he heard this!
"You are so good, Ye Xuan, you said you are not worthy of my sister! If you are not worthy of the county lady, then you are worthy of the princess!"
This roar almost broke Yunqi's eardrums, and only then did he discover the three Chang siblings.
"So Master Chang is here too, along with the two princesses."
Chang Sheng was not in a good mood, he stared at Yun Qi with his big eyes and said: "You said that His Majesty wants to marry the eldest daughter to Ye Xuan, you are not talking nonsense!"
Seeing that the secret had been revealed, Yun Qi simply stopped hiding it. Anyway, the imperial decree to grant the marriage would come down soon.
He simply said, "This is what His Majesty said himself, how can it be false!"
"I was wondering why His Majesty wanted me to take my sister away in such a hurry. It turns out that he wanted to find a son-in-law for himself!" Chang Sheng was immediately indignant. "I remember that His Majesty and our father were sworn brothers. How could he snatch my father's son-in-law?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Qi hurriedly tried to dissuade him, "Mr. Chang, please be careful with your words. You can't just say this nonsense. This is extremely disrespectful!"
Chang Sheng also knew that he had said something wrong, and although he stopped talking, he still looked sulky.
After thinking for a long time, he said dejectedly: "Fifth sister and sixth sister, you have seen it too. It's not that I don't want to help you. It's just that the opponent is too strong and I don't have the courage."
Chang Ruyue cried and said, "How could Sister Huan'er do this? It was obviously us sisters who fell in love with him first!"
Chang Ruyun was also dissatisfied and said, "There has to be a first come first served rule for everything, right?"
In the end, it was the elder sister Chang Ruyun who made the final decision: "No, we have to discuss this with the eldest sister before the imperial edict comes down and ruin this matter!"
Younger sister Chang Ruyue immediately agreed, so the two girls ignored the sadness of being "abandoned" and ran away, leaving Chang Sheng behind.
And Ye Xuan was so moved for the first time, and he hoped that the Chang sisters could live up to their mission and ruin this matter.
Yun Qi didn't expect that his quick words would cause such a big mess and he was at a loss.
After a long while, he said in a panic: "Hey, Captain Ye, please come with me quickly, don't let those two masters ruin our good thing!"
Now Yun Qi just wanted to send Ye Xuan to the palace as soon as possible, before the Chang sisters instigated the Crown Princess to make a big deal out of this matter, and hurry up to get Zhu Yuanzhang to issue the imperial decree to grant the marriage.
By that time, even if something happens, it has already been decided, so naturally no one will care about the trouble caused by their quick words.
However, regardless of whether Ye Xuan is willing or not, even if he is willing, Chang Sheng, this eccentric guy, has to cover for his two sisters no matter what. At least delaying the time can be considered as fulfilling his responsibility as a brother.
"Eunuch Yun, we haven't seen each other for a long time. How about we invite you to Yihong Courtyard to have some wine?"
Chang Sheng stood in front of Ye Xuan and made up a lame excuse while sleeping.
Yun Qi was almost angry to death. He invited the eunuch to drink wine. Are you sure you are not cursing?
