Chapter 1451 Untitled!
The next morning, the palace
In a Buddhist temple, Ye Cui was chanting scriptures and worshipping Buddha. Although she was already the queen mother, as a devout Buddhist, Ye Cui would chant scriptures and worship Buddha every day. But today, Ye Cui was even more devout.
In the past few days, as Ye Mingsheng ordered the medical school to keep his physical condition strictly confidential, some rumors that were intended to unleash chaos on the world have appeared inside and outside the palace. Although these rumors were quickly controlled at Ye Mingsheng's request, unfortunately, Ye Cui still heard some of them!
Ye Cui, who was concerned about her son, immediately found Ye Mingsheng and wanted to ask about Ye Mingsheng's true physical condition!
Although Ye Mingsheng told the truth that he only had a herniated disc, which was not serious and would heal after a period of good care, he asked the medical school to keep it strictly confidential just to prepare for a rainy day.
But Ye Cui was still very worried about Ye Mingsheng's health. She lost her husband when she was young and raised Ye Mingsheng alone with great difficulty. She didn't want to experience the tragedy of seeing a young person die before an old one!
Therefore, when chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddha these past few days, Ye Cui was extremely pious, hoping that her piety could move heaven and all the gods and Buddhas in the sky, so that they would bless her son with good health and a long life!
As the three incense sticks burned out, Ye Cui stood up with the help of Nanny Chen beside her. At this time, Ye Cui looked very tired. She was not young anymore, and chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddha consumed a lot of energy, so she was very tired.
Just as Ye Cui was about to lean back on the sofa to rest, Nanny Chen beside her spoke up:
"Empress Dowager, Ye Ling just came over and said she wanted to see you..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Cui asked:
"What's she coming for?
"She didn't tell me this, but she looked very anxious!"
Ye Cui was a little confused when she heard this. She didn't understand why Ye Ling was so anxious to see her instead of staying at home.
Thinking of this, Ye Cui, who is also a widow, couldn't help but think of a possibility!
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was not right. After all, the elders of the Ye family had advised Ye Ling and Wang Xuecheng to divorce before. The royal family could come forward to solve the problem for Ye Ling, but Ye Ling refused straightforwardly for the sake of her child!
Wang Xuecheng has just left for a few days. Even if Ye Ling has a lover, there is no need to be so anxious!
Although she was a little confused, Ye Cui still nodded slightly. Upon seeing this, Nanny Chen immediately brought Ye Ling to Ye Cui.
"Ye Ling pays respect to the Queen Mother!"
Seeing Ye Ling's sad face, Ye Cui said with some pity:
"Be flat!"
"Thank you, Queen Mother!"
Ye Cui looked at Ye Ling and then comforted her:
"Ye Ling, even though Wang Xuecheng is gone, you and your child still have to live on. You have to be strong. Wang Xuecheng in heaven doesn't want to see you like this!"
Ye Ling nodded after hearing this, and Ye Cui continued to comfort Ye Ling. After she finished speaking, Ye Cui finally remembered to ask:
"Ye Ling, what do you want to see me about today?"
Seeing that Ye Cui finally asked about the main matter, Ye Ling looked at him hesitantly, and then she glanced at Nanny Chen beside her...
Ye Cui was even more surprised when she saw this. She didn't understand what Ye Ling wanted to say to her, but she said without hesitation:
"Madame Chen is someone close to me. She has always been very loyal and helpful. Ye Ling, if you have anything to say, just say it directly!"
Hearing what Ye Cui said, Ye Ling's thoughts fell into hesitation again. After a moment, she still insisted:
"My Queen, I have something very important to report to you!"
Seeing that Ye Ling was so insistent on reporting to her alone, Ye Cui frowned slightly and looked Ye Ling up and down. After pondering, she decided to believe Ye Ling. She waved to Nanny Chen, and Nanny Chen immediately took the order and retreated.
At this time, only Ye Ling and Ye Cui were left in the room. Ye Ling did not hide anything and immediately took out a book from her bosom and handed it to Ye Cui with both hands, saying:
"Empress Dowager, my husband gave me a wooden box and asked me to keep it well. He didn't tell me what was inside, only that it was for emergencies. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but today I accidentally opened the wooden box and found this little notebook in it!"
"There is a note in the book that my husband left for me, asking me to give it to you!"
Upon hearing that the little notebook was left by Wang Xuecheng, Ye Cui immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. The Queen Mother Daqian did not take the little notebook immediately. Instead, she hesitated for a moment before slowly picking up the little notebook and reading it...
Although she had made some mental preparations, Ye Cui still felt a little frightened when she saw the contents in the small notebook. However, the old woman still insisted on reading it. The small notebook had not many pages, and it looked like there were only twenty-five or twenty-six pages, but it took Ye Cui half an incense stick of time to finish reading it.
After reading the contents of the notebook, Ye Cui put it down, closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. Seeing this, Ye Ling felt even more uneasy, but she had no better way at this time. She could only stand quietly aside and wait for Ye Cui's decision!
After a cup of tea, Ye Cui opened her eyes and asked calmly:
"Who among Ye Ling knows about this little notebook?"
Ye Ling said without hesitation:
"Your Majesty, this little notebook has been kept in a wooden box. Although Wang Xuecheng gave me the wooden box, he always kept the key with him. I only got the key recently. Today, I opened the box by myself and found the little notebook inside. I took it here immediately!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cui looked at Ye Ling deeply, and then continued to ask calmly:
"Ye Ling, have you read the contents of this little notebook?"
After saying this, Ye Ling's eyes were a little flustered, but she immediately said:
"Your Majesty, I haven't read it. Wang Xuecheng left me a note in the notebook, asking me to give it to you!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cui nodded slightly and said:
"I know what happened. Don't tell anyone else about this little notebook!"
"Your Majesty, I understand. I will forget about this little notebook now and will never let anyone know about it..."
Hearing Ye Ling say this, Ye Cui hesitated for a moment and said:
"Wang Xuecheng has offended many people while working for the emperor over the years, but as the old saying goes, good people die like lights, so let the past be the past!"
"Ye Ling, you and your child must live a good life, raise your child well, and let them work for Daqian!"
Although Ye Cui had said something similar at the beginning, Ye Ling became even more excited when she heard what Ye Cui said. She immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Ye Cui, saying, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your kindness! Thank you, Queen Mother, for your kindness!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cui waved her hand and said:
"I'm a little tired!"
Upon hearing that, Ye Ling bowed and left tactfully. After she left, Ye Cui did not rest, but picked up the small notebook and read it again. Compared with the half incense stick of time she spent the first time, this time Ye Cui read it more carefully and it took her a full incense stick of time.
After reading the contents of the small notebook again, Ye Cui fell into deep thought again. After a long time, the Queen Mother Daqian let out a long sigh.
Hearing the sigh, Nanny Chen walked into the room immediately. Seeing her appearance, Ye Cui said in a deep voice:
"Go find me a brazier!"
Although she was a little confused about Ye Cui's request, Nanny Chen did not ask why, and obediently brought a brazier to Ye Cui.
Looking at the flames burning in the brazier, Ye Cui's expression showed some hesitation, but in the end she threw the small notebook she had just obtained into the brazier. As the small paper notebook entered the brazier, the flames in the brazier suddenly became stronger.
Ye Cui just watched as the little notebook, which Wang Xuecheng had handled with great care, was burned to ashes bit by bit in the brazier.
Seeing that this little notebook had completely disappeared from the world, Ye Cui said quietly:
"I am not feeling well. Please ask Concubine Pei to come and take a look at me..."

Half an incense stick later, Ye Mingsheng in the imperial study was looking at the disaster relief reports in Guanzhong and Yongliang. However, Ye Cheng walked in and reminded:
"Your Majesty, you have been sitting here for an hour!"
Hearing Ye Cheng say this, Ye Mingsheng subconsciously said:
"I have finished reading this memorial!"
After saying that, Ye Mingsheng began to write his opinions on the memorial. After a while, Ye Mingsheng finished his instructions and took the memorial aside. He subconsciously wanted to take the next memorial. However, as soon as Ye Mingsheng's hand touched the next memorial, he heard Ye Cheng's voice in his ears.
"His Majesty!"
Seeing that Ye Cheng had not left yet, Ye Mingsheng was a little speechless, but he also knew that Ye Cheng was doing this for his own good, so he was about to stand up. However, as soon as he moved, Ye Mingsheng felt a sharp pain in his waist. Ye Mingsheng was a little helpless about this. He felt that it didn't hurt much when he was sitting just now, but his waist hurt a little when he stood up.
Although his waist was a little painful, the pain was not severe so Ye Mingsheng still forced himself to stand up. He had not exercised for more than an hour and it was almost noon, so he asked Ye Cheng to prepare lunch for him. He wanted to go to the Imperial Garden for a walk and exercise.
Although he was just jogging on the stone pavement of the Imperial Garden, it only took half an incense stick of time for some sweat stains to appear on Ye Mingsheng's forehead.
Ye Mingsheng felt a little out of breath and was a little depressed. He still remembered that when he led troops to fight in the past, he was still energetic even if he ran for half an incense stick of time or even half an hour. But now his energy was running low...
After running for another half an incense stick of time, Ye Mingsheng finally couldn't hold on any longer and changed from running to walking. At this time, some snowflakes began to float in the sky.
Although it was just a light snow, the snowflakes falling on his face still made Ye Mingsheng feel a little cold.
However, Ye Mingsheng noticed at this moment some palace maids in the Imperial Garden. Although they looked somewhat excited and eager to try when they saw him, they did not dare to overstep the line in any way!
Seeing this, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but nodded secretly. When the imperial physician of the medical school had examined him before, he had mentioned to Ye Mingsheng very obscurely that he hoped Ye Mingsheng would be restrained in his love for women, not indulge in revelry every night, and should put the dragon's health first!
Although Ye Mingsheng felt that he did not party every night and was just living a normal nightlife, he also felt that the imperial physician's words made sense. He was not young anymore and was no longer the man who had sex seven times a night. So for the sake of his own health, he had to be moderate!
After all, the body is the capital of a GM! Ye Mingsheng still has too many dreams to fulfill, and he doesn't want to die young!
Although Ye Mingsheng wanted to exercise restraint, there were too many beauties in the harem, and many palace maids wanted to have a one-night stand with Ye Mingsheng and make love with him!
To be honest, Ye Mingsheng's self-control when it comes to women is very average. If a beautiful woman tempts him a little, Ye Mingsheng will find it difficult to refuse, although he won't be able to move.
When Ye Mingsheng just started jogging, some scheming palace maids and concubines began to try to encounter Ye Mingsheng. Although Ye Mingsheng was able to hold back at the time, he felt a fire in his heart and had to find someone to vent it at night.
Fortunately, An Miaoyi also knew this about Ye Mingsheng, so as the queen, she simply gave an order, requiring the palace maids to strictly abide by the palace rules.
As for some concubines, An Miaoyi also asked them to know propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame, especially those concubines who were usually neglected, to put less effort on His Majesty and not behave like a DF. For this reason, An Miaoyi severely punished several people and finally put an end to this unhealthy trend.
Only in this way can Ye Mingsheng free himself from women and maintain a normal frequency of married life.
As Ye Mingsheng was walking in the Imperial Garden, he saw a pavilion and a beautiful figure immediately appeared in his mind. It had been more than a month since the previous encounter at night. After that, Ye Mingsheng had come to the Imperial Garden for exercise many times, but he had never seen that person again. Ye Mingsheng felt a little regretful about this!
Now that Ye Mingsheng was revisiting the old place, he felt an urge to go and see the beauty, and the little dog named Mantou. He didn't know whether she had been found.
Just as Ye Mingsheng's thought was becoming stronger and stronger, Ye Cheng suddenly walked up to Ye Mingsheng and whispered:
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has summoned Concubine Pei..."
