Chapter 116 Cow

While waiting for Ye Jinshu to finish thinking, Jiang Sisi boredly looked at Ye Jinshu from top to bottom and from left to right. She counted Ye Jinshu's eyelashes and found that they were very long and thick. She then began to count Ye Jinshu's hair.

Jiang Sisi's eyes hardly left Ye Jinshu in front of her. As a qualified noble lady, she couldn't look around and could only look at Ye Jinshu in front of her.

Ye Jinshu barbecue. No, after thinking for a long time, I finally understood something.

She stated her conclusion uncertainly: "What this means is that the Emperor, the Empress, and the Crown Prince have long known that Ye Ruoyan has great medical skills, and all the things they did that seemed to embarrass Ye Ruoyan were actually intentional?"

Seeing that Ye Jinshu finally understood a key point, Jiang Sisi did not hesitate to praise him: "The princess is wise."

Jiang Sisi learned this from Xiao Cui. Every time she heard Xiao Cui say this coupled with Ye Jinshu's somewhat dazed expression, she always found it very interesting.

Today it was finally her turn to speak, and it was really interesting.

Love to say, and keep saying.

Jiang Sisi waited expectantly for Ye Jinshu to continue his analysis, but Ye Jinshu fell silent again.

After another long period of thinking, Ye Jinshu came up with his second conclusion: "But if that's the case, why didn't they treat Ye Ruoyan better from the beginning?"

"Princess Ying, huh?" Jiang Sisi wanted to repeat the happiness just now, but unexpectedly Ye Jinshu did not continue to analyze, but asked her another question instead.

Jiang Sisi looked at the innocent Ye Jinshu and thought that the fact that he asked this question meant that Ye Jinshu was not suitable to be a member of the imperial palace.

"My Lord, do you know what kind of cow is least likely to escape?"

"An obedient cow."

Jiang Sisi shook her head: "No, it's a cow that has had a rope around its neck since it was young."

"My lord, have you ever heard of this story? When a calf is very young, it is tied to a wooden stake with a rope. At first, the calf will not stay still and will always try to break free from the stake. However, at that time, it has little strength, and no matter how hard it tries, it will just spin in the same place. After many times of being tossed around, the stake will become something absolutely unmovable in its eyes, and when it grows up, it will no longer fight with the stake.

Even if the cow has the strength to break free from the stake, when you put the hay where its neck can’t reach, it won’t try to break free from the stake and will just cry helplessly where it is.”

Ye Jinshu was smart for once at this time: "So, I am the stake used to tie up Ye Ruoyan?"

Jiang Sisi didn't expect Ye Jinshu to understand so quickly this time, and immediately picked up the happiness that she had not yet experienced: "The princess is wise!"

"However, to be more precise, it should be your identity, Princess, that is the stake used to tie up Ye Ruoyan. Haven't you noticed that although Ye Ruoyan is very accomplished in medical skills, she is obsessed with status, as if in her cognition, if she wants to practice medicine, she must have status."

"Who, do you think, gave her this idea?"

"It's my aunt and the prince."

"The princess is wise!" Jiang Sisi was really happy. What a good life Xiao Cui was living all day long. She also wanted to live that life.

And under Jiang Sisi's step-by-step guidance, Ye Jinshu finally understood the meaning of the long string of words just now. Although she knew that she shouldn't have such emotions, she inexplicably felt that Ye Ruoyan was a little pitiful.

Of course, she is the most pitiful one. Not only was she used as a wooden stake when she was a child, but when Ye Ruoyan no longer needed the wooden stake, she still had to cooperate and go to the manor. Isn't this what it means to cross the river and then destroy the bridge?

She throws it away after using it.

"Sister Jiang, I'm so miserable."

When Jiang Sisi heard Ye Jinshu's pitiful words, she sighed softly. She was about to comfort Ye Jinshu not to be sad, because Ji Yanqing would come over soon to entertain her.

But Ye Jinshu changed the subject and said with great grievance: "I am actually a wooden stake."

"Puff." Jiang Sisi really couldn't hold back this time. She didn't expect that Ye Jinshu meant this when he said "so miserable". However, as the princess' most trusted think tank, she still forced herself to smile and comforted him, "It's okay, princess. Even if you are a wooden stake, you are a wooden stake of noble status." "Then what should I do now?"

"The princess can wait for Ji Yanqing to come over and ask him what he thinks."

"Ji Yanqing has returned to his country now. By the time he comes here, I might have been buried in the ground."

"Ji Yanqing will arrive in Chen Kingdom next month to represent Dongming in diplomacy. The princess should not be buried in the ground next month."

Ye Jinshu:?

"next month?"

"Yes, next month."

"He's coming over next month?"

"Yes, next month."

Ye Jinshu suddenly felt that she was finished. In fact, she was not ready to face Ji Yanqing.

When the two of them parted, she said those words, actually thinking that they might never see each other again in this life. But who knew that Ji Yanqing was so proactive that they were meeting again only about two months after they made the agreement?

What did she say that day?
Ye Jinshu wanted to forget, but the fact was that she couldn't.

That day she told Ji Yanqing in person that if they could meet again, she would marry him.

When he said it, perhaps it was due to the atmosphere, Ye Jinshu didn't think it was a big deal, but now when he thinks about it, Ye Jinshu just feels that he is crazy.

She is really crazy, how can she make such an agreement!
Jiang Sisi looked at Ye Jinshu's ever-changing expressions in front of her, and she knew that there must be some hidden story between Ye Jinshu and Ji Yanqing that she didn't know about.

"What's wrong with you, Princess? What did Ji Yanqing do to embarrass you?"

Ye Jinshu looked at Jiang Sisi with a sad face and told her the truth about what happened that day.

After Jiang Sisi heard the agreement between Ye Jinshu and Ji Yanqing, she was shocked but then calmed down: "Princess, regarding this matter, I can only say that I am no match for Ji Yanqing."

Ye Jinshu refused to give up: "Is there still hope for me?"

"Why do you bother him for no reason?"

"He's good-looking."

"Then you can wait for him to come back in a month and ask for your hand in marriage."

Jiang Sisi's words made Ye Jinshu's expression change ever-changing again.

Ye Jinshu has feelings for Ji Yanqing, but the feelings haven't reached that stage yet. To put it more bluntly, Ye Jinshu prefers living with her sisters to living with Ji Yanqing.

Jiang Sisi watched Ye Jinshu's face filled with sorrow and could only use Ye Ruoyan to divert Ye Jinshu's attention again.

"Princess, I suspect that Ye Ruoyan is not your father's child."

Ye Jinshu's attention was diverted in an instant: "Why?"

"It's just a suspicion, the evidence is not sufficient. If we can know why the emperor and empress know Ye Ruoyan's potential, perhaps we can solve Ye Ruoyan's life experience. When Ji Yanqing comes, the princess can also ask him for help."
