www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Queen Wude!
When Ye Xiu Ming was arguing with Fang Xiu Qing in the temple, a fire suddenly broke out in the backyard: the old lady was ill.
Although Ye Xiu Ming is an unparalleled leader in the officialdom, when it comes to the real Dinghai Shenzhen in Ye Mansion, it is this old lady. She and Ye Xiu Ming were a young couple, and they had a deep love for each other. They had gone through ups and downs for decades, and it was not like this for a young couple to stay with them all the time. Ye Xiu Ming's official career was not all smooth sailing. When he was young and full of energy, he hit a wall and was frustrated in life. He almost cut off contact with relatives and friends. The only one who always stayed by his side was his wife. Once a person is frustrated, he will inevitably have some complaints in his belly. He also complained at the beginning, but his wife is a fierce woman. When she heard his complaints, she did not feel depressed at all. The lonely house was busy and busy.
If everyone in the world has failed you, but there is only one person who cares about you and insists on being good to you, then it doesn’t matter if you have failed everyone in the world for this one person.
Later, Ye Xiu's fame gradually increased, and his family fortune gradually grew, but he never took a concubine. He only lived with his strong wife, even though she only gave birth to a son for him, and his stomach became restless. . Fortunately, their son lived up to his expectations and gave birth to three boys and one girl in one fell swoop. Their family is full of children and grandchildren. The old lady had always regretted that she had not been able to give birth to a lovely daughter. Later, when her granddaughter was born, she was like a treasure. She was afraid of falling off when she held it in her hands, and she was afraid of melting when she held it in her mouth. Everyone in the family knew that Ye Xiu Ming was so afraid of his wife that he had no principles, so the old lady doted on Zhen Zhen, and no one dared to say no.
Ye Xiu Ming himself has a bad temper, but the old lady's temper is even more bad than his. She is also impatient, so she is frank, but she has a clear mind, like a clear mirror of right and wrong. Therefore, the Ye family has a great business, and she can still manage the family in an orderly manner, eliminating Ye Xiu Ming's worries.
Ye Xiu Ming had deep feelings for his wife. Seeing that his wife was seriously ill, he had no intention of arguing with Fang Xiuqing and took a few days off to go home and take care of the patient.
The cause of the old lady's illness was that she ate the wrong things in the summer and caught wind, so she felt uncomfortable all over. In fact, the most fundamental cause of the disease is tacitly understood by everyone. As people get older, their bodies and bones are not as strong as before. If they have a headache or fever, they will easily fall ill. Just like a candle in the wind, it only lights up and goes out in an instant.
Ye Zhenzhen also soon heard about her grandmother’s illness. She respected her grandmother very much. When she was a child, she made a mistake and cried in front of her grandmother, and her father would not dare to punish her again. Although he grew up later, he was still a child in front of his grandmother, and he could act as coquettishly as he wanted. At this time, Ye Zhenzhen heard that her grandmother was seriously ill, and she felt anxious. Although she was still in the palace, her heart had already returned to her grandmother.
Ji Wu Jiu saw that she was not thinking about food and tea, so he comforted her and said, "I have sent the best doctor in the palace to diagnose and treat the old lady. She should not be in any danger, so don't worry too much. Otherwise, she will be better. , another one fell, but what to do."
Ye Zhenzhen nodded blankly.
Ji Wu Jiu sighed, "You'd better go back and visit me, don't say I'm unkind." It wasn't that he didn't want Ye Zhenzhen to visit him, but he was afraid that this woman would not come back for many days and would forget about her. miss him.
Ye Zhenzhen got Ji Wujiu's order and packed some things and returned to Ye Mansion that day.

Because Ye Zhenzhen left in a hurry, she did not have time to inform her family. When everyone in the Ye family saw the queen coming, they all jumped up and the masters came to kowtow to the queen one after another. Although she is a girl who has left her own house, she is now so noble that the etiquette cannot be discarded. They have to treat her with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister.
Ye Zhenzhen saw her grandfather before she saw her grandmother, and she couldn't help but shed tears. Grandpa's energy was a little sluggish, his complexion was much haggard, and he no longer had the spirit of old. The hair on his temples was almost completely white. He wanted to kowtow to Ye Zhenzhen, so he bent his knees, and Ye Zhenzhen helped him up, "Sir, there is no need to be polite. How is the old lady's current condition?"
"My body is still feverish, and I have vomited everything I have eaten in the past few days." Ye Xiuming shook his head while answering, his eyes were red, "I just heard that the queen had arrived. She had some energy and struggled to think. I want to get up and see you."
"Take me to see her quickly."
Ye Xiu Ming led Ye Zhen Zhen to the bedroom, and the room was filled with a medicinal aura. When the old woman on the bed saw the person coming, she sat up and called out "Queen". Ye Zhenzhen had already pushed her back to the bed first, "Grandma!"
When the grandfather and grandson met, they both shed tears. Ye Xiu Ming left the two of them to talk to each other and then left the room. After coming out, he had nothing to do, so he paced back and forth under the crabapple tree in the courtyard. The crabapple tree was half withered and half in full bloom, and the withered side had not sprouted since this spring. He felt bad at that time, but he didn't expect that it should be on top of it. Facing the half leafy crabapple, he recalled the imperial doctor's cautious words, and suddenly felt a little discouraged. He has been with her for most of his life. If she suddenly passes away, he really doesn't know what to do. Then I thought again, it was worth it for the two of them to grow old together, have children and grandchildren, and become rich and noble. It didn't matter if she left before him, if they couldn't die at the same time, someone would definitely stay and live sadly, and he would rather that person be him.
Thinking of this, he sighed. In this life of a person, decades only pass by in the blink of an eye. Fame, wealth and wealth are just like floating dust. Only the people who accompany you in this life are your concerns from birth to death.

Ye Zhenzhen chatted with her grandmother for a while and made her laugh. Seeing that she was in good spirits, she persuaded her to take some medicine and put her to sleep.
Next, Ye Zhenzhen settled down in Ye Mansion. She also heard what the imperial doctor meant, and knowing that it was hard to say whether her grandmother could survive, her heart skipped a beat and she didn't want to leave for a moment. Even if... she really couldn't survive, she should be allowed to have her most beloved granddaughter by her side in the last moments of her life. Ye Zhenzhen originally wanted to serve the decoction in person, but Ye Xiuming considered that her status was too noble and if she condescended to take care of his wife, it would be a disgrace to her, so he only asked her to talk to and coax the patient every day. Coax her.
Ye Xiu Ming also handed over a special note to Ji Wu Jiu to tell him this: Your wife is taking care of my wife, and it will probably take some time before she can go back.
When Ji Wu Jiu saw the folded book, he smiled bitterly, as expected. It is really unbecoming for the queen to stay at her parents' house for many days. However, the situation in front of her is a bit special. Ye Xiu Ming's reputation is much higher than that of ordinary people, and he can't bear to make Zhen Zhen sad, so he doesn't care about the decency now. Properly, he nodded in agreement.
Without Ye Xiu Ming in the court, Fang Xiuqing felt lonely and alone in seeking defeat.
Ji Wu Jiu is also lonely - how can he not be lonely when his wife is not here? He lived in Qianqing Palace, which was deserted; when he moved to Kunning Palace, Kunning Palace was still deserted. At night, he slept on her bed, missing this person more and more, and thought of calling her name in his sleep. Ji Wu Jiu felt like he was going crazy. He knew he liked her, but why did he like her so much? It was as if as soon as she left, his soul followed her.
People say that men like the new and hate the old, that’s because they haven’t met the right person. If there is a person who suits your appetite, makes all your 36,000 hairs feel comfortable, and makes you feel warm to her one moment, but miss her the next moment you don’t see her... If you encounter this If you are a woman, can the woman next to you still catch your eye?
Such a woman is both happiness and disaster for you.
Ji Wu Jiu lay on his back on the bed in Kunning Palace, eyes wide open as he looked at the pearls hanging from the ceiling. He finally had a deep understanding of what it felt like to be alone and unable to sleep.
***
The old lady of Ye Mansion was seriously ill. The emperor not only gave the queen the gift of going home to attend to her illness, but also personally came to Ye Mansion to visit the old lady.
I am afraid that only people like Mr. Ye Ge can afford this kind of favor. Many people look at it with envy. Although they are very envious, they are not jealous. Mr. Ye just picks up one of his children and smashes it into the ground, creating a hole. His granddaughter is also the queen. Why should you be jealous of such a family? If you have no chance of getting something, you will never be jealous, only envious.
Ji Wu Jiu sat in front of the old lady's bed before being invited out by Ye Xiu Ming. Being an emperor seems to be born with a layer of precious light that shocks people's hearts. The patient is weak and is frightened when he braces himself. Being frightened by the emperor in this way will only make him worse.
Ye Xiu Ming invited Ji Wu Jiu to the main hall. Ji Wu Jiu inquired about the old lady's condition in detail, said a few words of comfort, and gave her some medicine. Ye Xiu Ming was grateful. He knew that Ji Wu Jiu probably missed Ye Zhen Zhen, so he wanted to invite Ye Zhen Zhen over.
Ji Wu Jiu said, "There's no rush. I'm here this time to inquire about something."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"When I conquered the Jurchens, my husband gave me silkworm clothes as a gift. I didn't expect that this treasured clothes would become a clue for the enemy to arrest people. When Zhenzhen fell into the enemy camp, she was arrested because she was wearing silkworm clothes. Duoduo Ulatu recognized him as the emperor."
Ye Xiu Ming is a smart man. When he heard this, his expression changed. He left his seat and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the loyalty of this veteran can be learned from heaven and earth."
Ji Wu Jiu helped him up, "Of course I know your loyalty, otherwise I wouldn't ask you personally. I have confirmed it. The silkworm clothes incident should have been leaked from your house. Sir, please think carefully. I wonder who knows about this."
"There are only escorts," Ye Xiu Ming said thoughtfully, and finally raised his head, "No, there is someone else."
"Who?"
"He is the disciple of the old minister, Bai Jiancheng. He has been serving as an official before, and now he has been appointed as the right servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He originally gave the silkworm clothes to the old minister, so when he visited that day, the minister was talkative. One sentence."
Ji Wu Jiu understood clearly that Ye Xiu Ming was definitely not talking too much. He probably told Bai Jiancheng on purpose so that he could take credit for it when the time came. The Ministry of Personnel was Ye Xiu Ming's domain, and his cultivation intention of bringing in his disciples to serve as ministers was obvious. Ji Wu Jiu narrowed his eyes, "Bo Jiancheng?"
"Yes, the emperor doesn't remember him anymore."
"I remember it very clearly. He was exiled to Liaodong five years ago for corruption. After I ascended the throne, I granted amnesty to the whole world, and he came back. Unexpectedly, in just five years, things and people have changed, and he actually became an official and acted like a man again. The water rises."
Ye Xiu Ming's face was a little confused. Does the emperor mean that he employs people for his own selfishness? This Bai Jiancheng was his disciple. When his home was confiscated, he seized the opportunity to move up step by step. Seeing that this person was still manageable, he decided to give him a chance. Now it seems that he is not going to get into trouble, right?
It’s just that... when Bai Jiancheng was confiscated and exiled, he was only a seventh-grade county magistrate. The emperor was still the prince at that time, how could he remember it so clearly?
Ye Xiu Ming was full of doubts and did not show it. He only said, "Old minister, I don't know people well. I ask the emperor to punish me."
Ji Wu Jiu waved his hand and said, "Everything has not been finalized yet. Sir, there is no need to worry. Even if he has problems, they are not your fault." Seeing that the person in front of him still frowned, he changed his mind and asked , "I often hear people say that the husband is henpecked, but I would like to ask for advice. The husband and the old lady are deeply in love. Are you really afraid of the lady?"
Ye Xiu Ming was stunned. He didn't expect that Ji Wu Jiu's topic would change so quickly. He stroked his beard and replied, "I'm afraid of what she will do. She's not a tiger. I just love her and follow her in everything." That's all. This is not about being afraid of your wife, but loving your wife."
Ji Wu Jiu was thoughtful.
