Miracle Doctor, Abandoned Daughter: The Sly Emperor's Wild Beast-Tamer Empress

Chapter 575

Seven days after the funeral of the previous emperor of Da Xia, the whole Lan Manor got down to the marriage of Ye Huangyu and Nie Fengxing .

It would be Ye Huangyus second marriage . When she was first married to the Hong Manor, she was not given a formal wedding . Hence, both Ye Lingyue and Mrs . Lan tried their best to create the best wedding for her this time .

After Marquis Guanwu agreed to the marriage of Nie Fengxing and Ye Huangyu, he showed great sincerity to Ye Huangyu by sending plentiful betrothal presents .

Having known about the coming marriage, people of the Ye Manor including Ye Gu rushed to Xia City .

In the early morning, the bride-to-be Ye Huangyu was invited by Mrs . Lan to select fabrics and jewelry .

The dazzling jewelry and precious North Qing brocade had really impressed Lan Caier, Ye Yinshuang, Ye Liuyun and others .

Lingyue, you have prepared too much for me . I am no longer young and dont need these things . But you are still young and should dress up more often . Ye Huangyu kept a straight face and had Ye Lingyue try on the jewelry and clothes instead .

Ye Huangyu felt quite uneasy about letting her daughter attend to the marriage affairs .

Who says that my mother is no longer young? You have forgotten that the owner of Fengming Manor mistook us for sisters . Ye Lingyue showed her disapproval .

Aunt Ye, please stop refusing . Such jewelry and clothes mean nothing for Sister Lingyue . Lingyue is too cunning . Without telling me, she bet 1 million liang (1 liang is equal to 50 grams) of gold at the Casino of Splendidness . After the Imperial Contest, she made a big fortune . Do you know what we call her now? We call her Tyc.o.o.n Ye now since her gold is too much to store . Except for Lord Feng, no one is as rich as her . Even the emperor may not have so much money . Lan Caier pouted her lips .

For this, Lan had been pestering Ye Lingyue to give some stakes in Zuixian Restaurant .

Caier, how could you talk to Aunt Ye like this? You are a girl and should not talk about money all the time . Mrs . Lan frowned and criticized her daughter when walking in with an old maid .

Lan Caier heard such words and retracted her neck .

Sisters, I remember that I have promised to take you on a tour around Xia City . The weather is nice today and I will treat you to wine at Zuixian Restaurant . No, tea . . . Lan Caier feared nothing . She could even talk back with her neck red when General Lan scolded her in a high voice . However, she could do nothing when Mrs . Lan did the same .

In Ye Lingyues words, Mrs . Lan was the one that had the final say in the Lan Manor .

Lan Caier then pulled Ye Lingyue out of the room and the latter felt nothing strange .

The two were just several steps away from the room when Mrs . Lan gave a sign .

Huangyu, I am sorry for this . Caier can never put us at ease . She is already more than 20 years old but remains single . As her mother, I am quite worried .

Ye Lingyue and Lan Caier were both warriors and had good vision and hearing . They heard Mrs . Lans words clearly . Ye Lingyue sensed that Lan Caier was holding her hand more closely and that there was sweat on Lans palm .

When they walked out of the Lan Manor, Lan Caier had already lost her vitality and looked disappointed .

Sister Lan, you seem unhappy . Is it because you are worried that no one will marry you? Ye Yinshuang made fun of Lan Caier sensing her unease . The two were a little similar in that they were both straightforward .

In Da Xia, women would marry at a young age . Normally, a girls marriage would be fixed when she was 14 years old . The oldest age for marriage was 16 . Few girls would remain single at the age of Lan Caier who was in her 20s .

If Lan Caier was ugly-looking, all seemed reasonable .

However, she was a pretty infanta . Soon after Ye Lingyue came to the Lan Manor, she heard from her old servers that a large number of men proposed to Lan Caier when Lan was in her teenage years . But no one won Lans heart .

This left Ye Lingyue even more puzzled about why Lan Caier still remained single .

Ye Liuyun was quite smart and pulled Ye Yinshuang when sensing Lan Caiers unhappiness .

Lan thought for a moment and then spoke with regret .

At your age, I fell in love with a man . Pitifully, the one I loved was not the right guy . I pursued him for 4 years but he just did not love me . For him, I have nearly put my father in jeopardy . Hence, I will remain single all my life .

The other girls were all taken by surprise .

It was the first time for Ye Lingyue to hear Lan talking about the past .

Lan was such an optimistic girl but even she had bitter memories .

Ye Lingyue suddenly recalled how she first met Lan Caier and her father .

At that time, Lan Yingwu was wounded by the magic of evils . It was said that he was attacked by cults when trying to put down the riot on the Central Plains .

Maybe it was not true and something else happened?

Ye Lingyue wanted an answer but hesitated about asking when her sisters were also present . Then she thought she could ask Lan Caier about what on earth happened some time later .

Lets forget about these men . Zuixian Restaurant has offered the customers some new wine and we can go on a drinking spree today . Lan Caier forced a smile with these words .

When the four were about to go to the restaurant, Lan Yingwu returned from the court and called Ye Lingyue .

Lingyue, I heard from the prison guards that Hong Fang wants to see your mother these days . Fengxing has intercepted the message . Do you need to see Hong Fang?

The people of the Hong Manor plotted to overthrow the government . Now the truth was clear and Xia Houqi had already ordered the beheading of Hong Fang and others after 3 days .

The marriage of Nie Fengxing and Ye Huangyu was approaching . The former was certainly unwilling to let Hong Fang meet his bride-to-be at this time .

Lan Yingwu thought that Ye Lingyue was after all the daughter of Hong Fang and then decided to tell Ye about it .

Please dont tell my mother about it . She is too soft-hearted and Hong Fang is too tricky . He wants my mother to see him and then I will meet him instead . Ye Lingyue decided to visit the prison to see what Hong Fang was up to .

It was already the second time for Ye Lingyue to visit the prison .

Last time, the one she saw was Xia Houhong .

This time, however, she went there to see her biological father Hong Fang .

In the dark prison, Hong Fang, Hong Yulang and Zhuge Rou were detained in the same room .

Hong Fang was no longer high-spirited and vigorous . He had on the prison garb and wore the specially-made shackles . Zhuge Rou and Hong Yulang were both in low spirits, smelling terrible .
