Chapter 354: We will not let the border be short of food and clothing
Su Xiaoluo held Ye Tang's hand and said, "My father thought that Wen Ye's official position was too low, and he came from a poor family with no background, so he didn't want me to marry him. In addition, my father also found a powerful family for me."
Ye Tang frowned: "Doesn't your father know that Wen Ye is the great-nephew of King Pingshan?"
The relationship between Xiao Wenye and Xiao Jingxuan has not been made public. The Xiao family has always been cautious in their words and actions in the capital, and has not relied on the power of the Pingshan Palace to seek any benefits.
Therefore, apart from his own people, no one else knew the relationship between Xiao Wenye and the Pingshan Palace.
Xiao Wenye shook his head.
Ye Tang asked Su Xiaoluo: "If your father knew about the relationship between Wen Ye and us, would he still stop it?"
Su Xiaoluo blinked her eyes: "Can you tell my father about these relationships?"
"Of course, your father is not an outsider." Ye Tang said.
Xiao Wenye and Su Xiaoluo were delighted when they heard this.
Xiao Wenye clasped his fists and said, "Sixth Grandma, with your words, Wenye feels relieved. He knows what to say and what not to say."
"So you two appeared in front of me just to say this. Okay, I've told you what to say. Go and do your thing. I'm looking forward to attending your wedding." Ye Tang waved his hand.
Xiao Wenye and Su Xiaoluo left with many thanks, and Ye Tang continued to ride in the carriage to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
Ye Ping'an and Ye Qianbai went out, Ye Peng went to the military camp, and Shangguan Zhenhua was alone at home.
When Ye Tang saw Shangguan Zhenhua, he felt that the old man's back revealed a bit of loneliness.
"Grandfather, I'm bringing Yun Ting to see you."
"I have some good news to tell you. On the way here, I met Wen Ye..."
The next day, Ye Tang left her child with Shangguan Zhenhua and went to the Sixth Princess's Mansion alone.
Princess Mingzhu was three months pregnant and vomited every day, relying on spicy noodles to survive.
As soon as Ye Tang entered the house, he smelled a strong smell of spicy strips.
"Cousin, pregnancy is so painful!" As soon as Princess Mingzhu saw Ye Tang, she rushed over and hugged him.
Ye Tang's nose was filled with the smell of spicy strips on her body.
"A-choo!" Ye Tang couldn't help but sneeze: "Mingzhu, how many spicy strips did you eat?"
Princess Mingzhu pouted: "I didn't eat much, I just eat this for three meals a day."
Ye Tang's eyes widened: "Just eat this? No rice or anything else?"
Princess Mingzhu nodded.
"Can your stomach and intestines bear it? Can the baby in your belly bear it?"
"I have to bear it even if I can't stand it. I can't eat any other food."
"You can't even eat hot pot that's not too spicy?"
“I can eat it, but I only want spicy food.”
Ye Tang touched Princess Mingzhu's head with heartache, and Princess Mingzhu burst into tears out of grievance.
"My husband has been very busy. He has no time to accompany me. I vomit every day. I feel so upset. I also have wild thoughts. I think my husband must have a mistress outside and he doesn't like me anymore. But he doesn't. It's all my imagination. I can't control it. My cousin, I am so unhappy now!"
"I know the prince consort didn't mean it. He has me in his heart and he is really busy, but I just can't help but think about it and even have nightmares at night."
"What did you dream about?"
“I dreamed about snakes!”
"..."
"I can't eat anything that's not spicy, but if I eat too much I get diarrhea. I have diarrhea every day, it's so uncomfortable."
Princess Mingzhu spoke out all the words that were in her heart, and Ye Tang did not interrupt her. He just listened quietly, nodding from time to time and asking a few questions with concern.
As Princess Mingzhu spoke, she felt relieved.
Ye Tang ordered people to prepare meals, all of which were not spicy.
Mingzhu didn't want to eat at first, but she was too hungry, and she had just talked so much that she had used up all her energy.
She started eating with big mouthfuls, and Ye Tang ate with her.
"It's strange. I don't feel sick today." After eating, Mingzhu burped and touched her stomach in surprise. She said to Ye Tang with a smile on her face, "Cousin, you are amazing. I don't feel sick anymore since you came!"
"The first three months are over, and you will slowly be able to eat normally."
"No, no, no, I think it's all thanks to my cousin's wife. I like my cousin's wife the most!" Princess Mingzhu leaned her head on Ye Tang's shoulder affectionately like a child: "Cousin, can you come and accompany me more often? Maybe I'll go find you."
"It's all right. I'll bring Yun Ting with me next time."
"Why didn't you bring the child this time? I haven't even met Yun Ting yet. I heard from the Royal Grandmother that Yun Ting is very handsome. Is he as handsome as you and your cousin? I think he is definitely more handsome than you and your cousin. After all, he is your child!"
Princess Mingzhu held Ye Tang's hand and chattered on and on, with endless things to say.
At 3 p.m., Su Minglang came back and saw Princess Mingzhu and Ye Tang talking and laughing, eating while they talked, without any symptoms of nausea. He felt relieved.
When Ye Tang left the Sixth Princess's Mansion, Princess Mingzhu reluctantly saw her off and waved her handkerchief at her: "Cousin, you must bring Yun Ting with you next time, and come to see me often. When you go to the Crown Prince's Mansion next time, bring me with you, and don't forget me when you enter the palace!"
Those who don’t know would think that Ye Tang is her husband!
Su Minglang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he looked at Princess Mingzhu with doting eyes.
Two days later, good news reached Ye Tang's ears.
Xiao Wenye and Su Xiaoluo's marriage was settled.
Xiao Wenye planned to bring his parents and brothers to the capital to marry Su Xiaoluo.
On this day, Su Yanyun sent someone to deliver a visiting card, saying that she would bring her son here tomorrow to place the card.
Ye Tang canceled his trip to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion tomorrow.
Just after noon the next day, Su Yanyun came with her son. While reminiscing about the past with Ye Tang, she also told Ye Tang something.
She is going to the border with Wei Chi next month.
Wei Chi was brave and good at fighting. Shortly after Su Jing arrived in Beijing, he was also transferred to the capital and promoted to the third-rank General Guide.
Letting Wei Chi go to the border was the decision of Emperor Yuanwu and also Su Jing's suggestion.
Su Yanyun smiled and said, "Wei Chi wants me and my son to stay in Beijing, saying that we can live more comfortably here. The border is too difficult and he is afraid that we will suffer. I don't want to. Wherever he goes, I will take my son with him. Going to the border is not a day or two, and the family cannot be separated forever."
Ye Tang held her hand and whispered, "I support you. If you want to go, go. Life at the border is indeed hard, but it's much better now than before."
Today's Yuan Dynasty will no longer allow the border areas to lack clothing and food.
Su Yanyun did not stay long and said goodbye and left after half an hour.
Five days later, Su Yanyun and her son followed Wei Chi to the border, along with the 50,000 soldiers led by Wei Chi.
In mid-August, members of the Xiao clan arrived in the capital. Not only did they come with Xiao Wenye's parents, brothers, sisters-in-law, and nephews, but they also included Xiao Jingxuan and a dozen or so Xiao clan descendants who were the best at carpentry, including Xiao Wenhai.
Oh, there were also two parrots, which were also brought by Jamel Xiao. Xiao Qi did not come along, as it was having a great time playing in the mountains.
