Although the few of them did not say anything, they had already guessed the entire journey. They had just not expected it to be this accurate.
However, with such accurate information, they were able to prepare in advance.
Thinking about that, the family of three relaxed and followed behind Old Madame Xu into the courtyard.
Just as they entered Yanzhu's courtyard, they saw a servant woman carrying a tray out of the house.
The few of them looked at each other. They all understood that Yan Ye had probably just finished his breakfast too.
Yan Ye had indeed just finished breakfast. After a night of rest, his spirit had recovered quite a bit.
Seeing Old Madame Xu bringing Ye Jingxing, Xu Nuanwen and Ye Huan in, she immediately stood up and bowed to the three elders.
When Ye Jingxing heard Yan Ye address him as "Uncle", he could not help but sigh: "Looks like if I did not marry a good wife, I would really have lost a good nephew."
Hearing Ye Jingxing's words, Xu Nuanwen stared at him: "No matter what, they are still our children, why do you care so much?"
After saying that to Ye Jingxing, Xu Nuanwen then looked at him and said: "Just now, your grandmother said that you should be rushing back to the capital as soon as possible. After we finish talking, you can rest a bit, but just because you're young, you shouldn't not care about your own body. " After saying this to Yan Ye, and seeing him nod obediently in agreement, Xu Nuanwen took the initiative to walk to the side and sit down.
After the three elders sat down, Ye Huan and Yan Ye greeted each other with respect.
However, Ye Huan still had to respect Yan Ye a little. Regardless of whether he was his own Cousin or his own brother-in-law, he was still a little kid.
After a night of rest, Yan Ye had already recovered a lot. Even if he saw Ye Jingxing and the others, he would be able to tell them everything he knew in detail.
When Yan Ye talked about the confirmed news, that Ye Jingche would make his move at the New Year's Banquet, Ye Jingxing hurriedly looked at him and asked, "Are you sure this news is accurate?"
"Uncle, don't worry. This person is extremely filial and filial. When his mother was seriously ill and short of medicine, my mother secretly gifted him with medicinal ingredients." I saved his only son when he fell into the water. Thus, there is no need to doubt his loyalty. "
When Yan Ye said this, Ye Jingxing could almost guess who the person in his mouth was.
Only, he never would have thought that the person at Ye Jingche's side, was actually Yan Ye's person.
Thinking about it this way, ten years ago, this person did not seem to be by Ye Jingche's side. In ten years of time, he was able to reach Ye Jingche's side and become his trusted aide.
Since this was the person who sent the news, then this matter could be confirmed.
"If that's the case, then I can arrange things a little earlier." Ye Jingxing finished speaking to Yan Ye, then after thinking about it for a while, he looked at and said: "Are you really not willing to let your grandfather and grandmother know about your news?"
This was the first time Ye Jingxing had asked this question himself, but he was also clear that this would be the last time he would ask this question.
After today, even if he regretted it in the future, as an uncle, he would not give in.
After all, he would have to spend a lot of time and effort to get the throne. The most important thing was that once he made a move, he would no longer be able to pretend that he had nothing to do with it.
Yan Ye understood what Ye Jingxing meant. He raised his hand to feel the mask on his face, and then said: "Ye Yan no longer exists after the great fire that lasted for more than ten years. I remember when I lied in bed for a whole half a year before I recovered. From then on, Ye Yan was no longer the only person in the world. " After saying these words, Yan Ye paused for a while, before continuing: "If uncle succeeds, then I will definitely want to see grandmother once in a while. As for him, it's better that we don't meet again."
Hearing Yan Ye address his grandfather as "he" and not calling him "grandfather", Ye Jingxing knew that he hated his grandfather.
Just by thinking about it, Ye Jingxing understood why.
If it was him, he would probably hate him too.
There were clearly so many loopholes in what had happened that year, but he still ordered the crown prince's family to be locked up in the crown prince's mansion. The most important thing was the fire.
This was the life of hundreds of people in a mansion. How could this child not hate this!
"In that case, let me take care of this matter." After Ye Jingxing accepted this matter, he thought for a moment, then looked at Yan Ye and said: "I'm afraid that the news that your grandmother in the palace spread out, he won't be able to live much longer."
"I know that." Yan Ye was now able to calmly discuss about the Emperor Ruikang with others. Although this person was his grandfather, he was also this person.
When he thought about how his elder brother took the initiative to change into his own clothes to replace his own image, Yan Ye's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Yan Ye owed a lot of people, but he didn't owe His Majesty anything.
Even when he was young, it was clear how laughable and full of holes the incident with the voodoo Gu was. However, His Majesty still believed him.
Seeing that Yan Ye had stopped talking, Ye Jingxing did not bring up this matter, and instead talked about his own general arrangements.
Because Xu Shiqiu was not in the capital, Ye Jingxing made some arrangements.
One was that Xu Shiqiu could not rush back in time, and the other was that if Xu Shiqiu could rush back before the new generation.
The safest thing would naturally be if Xu Shiqiu was in the capital. He had soldiers under him, and his Iron Eagle Brigade was ferocious, but he was no longer in the capital. He was far away in the northern border.
But no matter what, this time, he would do his best to prevent Ye Jingche from doing anything.
Because, if he lost, it wouldn't be just him alone, but the dozens of families behind him, the lives of young and old.
Perhaps some of these people wanted to gain merits from the dragon by following him, but most of them were dragged into the conflict due to their marriage relationship.
Therefore, he had to be responsible for these people.
After knowing about this news, Ye Jingxing did not stay in the Xu Family for long. Not only did he leave, he even took away the eldest son, Ye Huan.
Xu Nuanwen and Ye Xuan stayed behind, but as for Xu Nuanwen, she was just worried about her husband and her eldest son. No matter how delicious the lunch at Xu Family was, she did not have the mood to enjoy it.
In the end, Ye Xuan noticed that something was amiss. When the Old Madame Xu opened his mouth and asked him to come down to play for two days, he firmly shook her head and followed Xu Nuanwen home.
After Xu Nuanwen and Ye Xuan left, Dong Shu turned to Old Madame Xu and asked: Mother, is there something wrong? Why do I feel like there's something wrong with my sister's expression? "
With regards to the fact that Dong Shu was able to tell that something was amiss, Old Madame Xu was not surprised either. From last night to today, if she still could not detect it, then she would really be an idiot.
"That's still not the case. You also know that His Majesty values your brother-in-law and says he wants to pass on the throne to him." However, the imperial throne is too enticing to others. Since they are all princes, how could they be willing to kneel and pay their respects to your brother-in-law from now on? "
What the Old Madame Xu had said was not very detailed, because she did not want to directly tell Dong Shu about the dangers of the New Year's Banquet.
According to rank, their Xu Family would make their wives want to enter the palace to attend the banquet. They only hoped that when the time really came, Empress Hu would think of a way to send her, a daughter-in-law, out of the palace.
As long as she left the palace, she would definitely be able to protect Yuanxi and the Xuan Ge'er.
Old Madame Xu thought about this matter for a while before letting it go. Although this matter was dangerous, there were still twenty days left.
Perhaps, before this, there would be some other turning point.
Dong Shu originally thought that not only would Xu Shiqiu be unable to make it back in the next few days, even the others would not come at this time either. However, she never would have thought that on the evening of the eighth day, her Cousin Dong Lei would rush to the capital with the new year gift he gave his Xu Family, as well as all the accounts and profits from Seaside County in these few months.
"Brother Lei, how did you get to Beijing today?" At this moment, Dong Shu had an exaggerated smile on her face. She hadn't seen her family for almost a year, and moreover, they were the Cousin who had the best relationship with her.
After bringing a big bowl of mutton noodle soup, she sat beside Dong Lei and looked at him, saying, "I saw that you brought a lot of dried fish and prawns from the sea, you can even buy these in the capital ~"
Dong Shu looked at Dong Lei as she spoke, and within her words, she couldn't help but adopt a slightly spoiled tone.
After Dong Lei heard this, he first grinned at her. After pulling to the frozen wound at the corner of his mouth, he then lowered his head and took a sip of the hot mutton soup, warming his stomach.
"The taste that I brought over at home is definitely different. The villagers who knew that I came to the capital, along with their Xiahe Village, all brought me quite a few things. They aren't valuable things, but they're all thinking about the kindness of Xu Family, and they're also thinking about you. They said that I'll let you have a taste of your homeland. "
Now, although Xu Family had left the Xiahe Village, because there was still business in Seaside County and Dong Lei was in charge of it, this year, many citizens of Xiahe Village benefited.
Although they knew that Dong Lei was the manager, after all, this was Xu Family's business. When Dong Lei came to the capital, they had also been very active in preparing things for Dong Lei to bring over, so he could have a taste of their home.
Hearing Dong Lei's words, Dong Shu's eyes suddenly became sore.
Although there were hubby people in the capital, mother-in-law and Yuanxi, and their food and clothes were much better than when they were in the Xiahe Village, Xiahe Village was where she was born and raised. After leaving for nearly a year, how could she not think about everything there?
However, she had never said any of this because she was afraid that her husband would feel sorry for her if she said it.
But now, when she heard the Cousin's words, she couldn't hold back her tears any longer and started crying.
Dong Shu thought, no matter how good her current life was, as long as it was someone who left his hometown, whenever his hometown was mentioned, no matter who it was, their eyes would always be wet.
Whether it was the water of her hometown, or the people of her hometown, or even a dish with the flavor of a hometown, she could always reminisce the happy days of her hometown.
