Chapter 75 Rejection(1/2)

"Zhajia didn't understand. Please tell me again, Miss!"

Eunuch Guan, who was politely rejected, simply thought he was hearing something and stared at Liangchen at the door in disbelief.

No matter how hard he thought, he never imagined that there would be anyone in this world who would dare to refuse the emperor's reward!

It's like eating the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard, and I don't know how high the world is!

"My young lady said that she thanked His Majesty for your kindness, but she will not accept this gift. Please bring it back to your father-in-law!"

Liangchen was still neither humble nor arrogant, and repeated what he just said with a somewhat distant and polite tone.

Guan Gonggong??

This Miss Ye is very courageous!

"Is your lady really saying that?"

Eunuch Guan, who still didn't believe his ears, asked again, wanting to confirm the authenticity of what he said.

"That's right!"

Liangchen nodded firmly.

After staring at Liangchen for a while, Eunuch Guan finally came back to his senses and felt that everything in front of him seemed like a dream!

"My father-in-law, please go slowly, I won't send you away!"

After saying that, Liangchen bowed to his father-in-law and bowed, then stepped back into the door and closed the door again in front of several people.

Guan Gonggong??

The world is so strange!

Don't you take him seriously?

Or are all the maids today so bold?

Or has he, as the emperor’s spokesperson, completely lost his prestige?

Therefore, the severely shocked Eunuch Guan turned around in a trance and planned to return to the palace to pay his responsibilities.

"Ouch! It's you, Mr. Guan!"

"Why are you always here?"

As soon as Eunuch Guan turned around, he ran into Hu Fang, the housekeeper of Prince An's Mansion.

Hu Fang was very enthusiastic about the Jokhang Kingdom's number one slave, Eunuch Guan. He greeted him with courtesy as soon as he met him, which was enough to give Eunuch Guan face.

The dazed Eunuch Guan also recovered from the warm greeting, and when he saw that he was the housekeeper of the emperor's second brother's house, he smiled generously.

"It turns out to be Butler Hu!"

As he said this, Eunuch Guan took advantage of the situation and looked at the gift boxes in the hands of the little guys behind Butler Hu.

You don’t need to guess to know that this is also a gift!

But having said that, Prince An’s Mansion is pretty well-informed!

When he reaches with his front legs, he will follow with his hind legs!

However, Eunuch Guan understood the comparison very well, so he inadvertently looked away and didn't ask much.

"How is your prince?"

"Your Majesty has been talking about it lately."

It was well known to everyone that Prince An was in poor health. His father-in-law was always interested in him when things came up. He also showed concern for his brother when he opened his mouth. He did not forget to publicize the emperor's love for his brother. He was truly worthy of being the first father-in-law in the imperial family!

"I would like to express my gratitude to Your Majesty for your kindness, and also thank you for your concern, my father-in-law. My prince is in good health and is resting in his mansion."

Butler Hu replied with a grateful face and a very respectful attitude.

After answering, he saw several attendants holding gifts behind Eunuch Guan, as well as the tightly closed vermilion door under the four domineering plaques with the words "Shangyun Zongfu" written on it.

Butler Hu naturally thought that Eunuch Guan and the others had just arrived and hadn’t had time to knock on the door!

"Since we met together, let them call the door."

With that said, Butler Hu waved to Xiao Si behind him, gesturing for him to knock on the door.

Guan Gonggong??

Actually, there’s no need to be so polite!

"No need to knock..."

Helpless, Eunuch Guan had no choice but to stop Xiaosi from knocking on the door.

I thought to myself, even if the emperor doesn't give him face, how can Miss Ye give face to Prince An's palace?

However, Eunuch Guan stopped him, making Butler Hu even more curious.

"Father-in-law, this is..."

"No need to knock, Miss Ye doesn't accept gifts!"

After saying this, Eunuch Guan turned around and pointed at the various noble gifts in the hands of the attendants, his expression even more indescribable.

Hearing this, Butler Hu was also shocked and expressed doubts about life!

Dare to refuse the emperor's gift?

Who is this Miss Ye family?

Butler Hu expressed great curiosity!

"Then this..."

For a moment, Butler Hu, who had no idea, pointed at the gift in Xiao Si's hand behind him and was stunned!

What should he do?

"Go back!"

"Go back and do the business!"

"Our family takes the first step!"

After speaking, Eunuch Guan waved his hand, nodded to Butler Hu, and left with a few attendants.

Butler Hu!!

Leaving now?

"Father-in-law, walk slowly!"

Butler Hu thought to himself, but he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly bent down to see him off.

After watching Eunuch Guan and others go away, Butler Hu straightened up, turned around and stared at the door of Shangyun Zong's Mansion in trance.

"Butler, do you still want to call the door?"

Xiao Si, who just went up to knock on the door, asked cautiously.

"Need not--"

Butler Hu replied with a cold face and angrily.

Now, they dare not knock on this door, and they cannot knock on it.

If Miss Ye accepted their gift, wouldn't that be a slap in the emperor's face?

This is a taboo and must not be done!

"go back!"

Thinking of this, Butler Hu gave a cold command, turned around decisively and walked back, but he was thinking about this matter in his heart.

The more he thought about it, the weirder it seemed!

How dare a daughter of a third-rank official be so bold!

Did he eat the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard?

Or is there something hidden in this?

Butler Hu feels that this matter needs to be carefully considered!

Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, I met the betrothed prince's palace, Princess Jinghui's palace, and the steward of Dong's palace who also came to give gifts.

Judging from the looks of these people, they must have met the Guan Gong and found out about being turned away.

Butler Hu thought that he had wasted his time. After greeting the others, he took Xiao Si and Chong Li back to their respective homes to find their respective owners.

Therefore, in less than a cup of tea, the news of the ancestor's refusal to accept the emperor's gift spread throughout the aristocratic circles of the capital.

At the same time, the ancestor successfully attracted the attention of these people and cast a layer of mystery, making many people want to find out.

However, after entertaining the three families of Cai, Song, and Luo on the housewarming day, Shangyun Zongfu has not been opened again, and no one has been seen coming in or out.

Even Mr. Ye lives in the Ye Mansion obediently. He never leaves the house except for going to and from court every day.

As for Mrs. Ye and Brother Ye, they have been living in Shangyun Zongfu and have not returned home. They have almost completely forgotten about their husband/father.
To be continued...
