While Wei Bingyan was reading in the house, Bai Binghui had already sent the letter to Guan's pharmacy, but Guan Hualang was not there, so the letter was given to the shopkeeper Xu. Li Yuyan was also preparing to look for Guan Hualang.

Hearing from others that Bai Binghui delivered a letter to Guan Hualang on behalf of Wei Bingyan, the pretty boy's smile became much brighter, and then the letter naturally fell into his hands.

After reading the letter Wei Bingyan wrote to Guan Hualang, Li Yuyan felt unhappy for a long time.

They are both senior brothers, so why doesn't the junior sister trust him? She could have asked him to help investigate the third son of the Liang family last night! But she only trusted Guan Hualang...

It seems like I need to have a serious talk with Guan Hualang!

But who is this Third Young Master of the Liang Family? Why is Junior Sister suddenly paying attention to him?

Guan Hualang was not there, so Li Yuyan did not stay for long. However, he did not leave the letter from Wei Bingyan to Guan Hualang, but left with it. When he got home, Li Yuyan was about to go to his father to discuss something, but was called over by Mrs. Li first.

"I heard from others that you were a thief last night?" Mrs. Li smiled and asked her son to sit down opposite her and filled a cup of fragrant tea for him.

Li Yuyan calmly drank a sip of tea and asked, "Mother, didn't you sleep well last night?"

"I slept too well, and just now I dreamed that you were a thief." Mrs. Li said with a smile: "My child, originally, I wanted to talk to Mrs. Wei about you and Little Junior Sister, but now your father and Lord Wei are not very happy, and I am also very worried and concerned. If Lord Wei is unwilling to betroth Bingyan to you, no matter how hard you try, it will be in vain."

"I'll make him nod and agree." Li Yuyan said softly.

"What feasible method is there? Ask your father to flatter the prince and become a member of a faction with him?" Mrs. Li frowned. Not only would Li Debing not agree to such a method, but even she would not accept it.

Li Yuyan lowered his eyelids. If Wei Zhong was determined to help the prince in this life, then he and their Li family would never be in the same faction. This was indeed a headache.

The junior sister would definitely not agree to run away from home with him...well, he also didn't want her to bear any bad reputation.

"And Mrs. Wei." He said, at least not everyone in the Wei family is like Wei Zhong.

Mrs. Li sighed, "But Wei Zhong is the head of the Wei family."

"There is an old man in the Wei family. He is the one who can truly make the decision." Li Yuyan said.

Although it appears that Wei Zhong can decide everything for the Wei family now, he has realized that this is not the case since the day he met Old Master Wei with His Majesty. Although Old Master Wei has retired, it does not mean that he is completely isolated from the world.

"In the end... Bingyan once said that she wanted to learn Tai Chi and teach it to Old Master Wei. Why don't you go to the Wei family in person? Even if Wei Zhong wants to kick you out, he won't dare to do anything as long as you say that you are here to check and treat Old Master Wei." Mrs. Li laughed proudly, "That's right! If you can make Old Master Wei like a grandson-in-law like you, then you don't have to be afraid of Wei Zhong."

Li Yuyan looked at Mrs. Li with a strange look. Compared with his biological mother, he was actually not despicable at all!

"Mother, are you sure that Junior Sister is willing to marry me?" Although he was determined to win Junior Sister, from the look on her face, it seemed that she had an indelible grudge against him. He wanted her to truly accept him, but he didn't know how long it would take.

"She doesn't want to, so you let go?" Mrs. Li asked back. She liked Bingyan very much, but she would not force her son to marry someone in a domineering way. It's just that no one knows a son better than his mother. She was smart enough to see her son's thoughts, so she really had to help him.

What is this called? The one who is close to the water does not want the wealth to flow to other people's fields!

"No!" Li Yuyan answered without hesitation. If he had to watch his junior sister being betrothed to someone else, it would be difficult for him to fully guarantee whether he would kill that man.

Mrs. Li looked like she was inconvenienced. "So, try your best. I feel Bingyan treats you a little differently from others. This is a good thing!"

"Yes..." Li Yuyan sighed in his heart. If he hadn't misunderstood Junior Sister at the beginning, would she be closer to him now? But if there hadn't been a misunderstanding at the beginning, how could he know that she was extraordinary?

It’s really a headache. How did my father get my mother to marry him?

"I'll write a letter to Bingyan, you give it to her, and then take time out every day to teach old master Wei Tai Chi. The old man has always been easy to please." Mrs. Li said with a smile. As a mother, she is so dedicated and knows how to help her son to find a wife. She is nothing like her husband's mother-in-law, who wishes her son would divorce her.

Li Yuyan took the letter written by Mrs. Li with an indifferent look on his face, but deep down he thought that he was actually still obsessed with strengthening his relationship with his junior sister at night. However, if he did that, it would be more difficult for him to marry her into his family in the future.

He went to the study and discussed Wang Tianbao's affairs with Li Debing.

"...Have you found Xiao Xin?" Li Debing sat directly behind the desk, his face serious, and asked Li Yuyan intently.

"No, Abao didn't find her." Li Yuyan said that he asked his junior sister for help, but he didn't know whether he could find Guan Mengxin.

Li Debing hesitated for a moment, "We must find her immediately and let her leave the capital quickly to avoid any delays." Then he said, "I have fallen out with Wei Zhong, and the crown prince may secretly deal with you. Although you are doing things for His Majesty, you must be careful not to let anyone get in your way."

"Yes, I know. The Crown Prince probably thinks that I am working for the Fourth Prince." Li Yuyan raised his lip. Although the Fourth Prince did not regard him as a confidant, he seemed to have dragged him into their faction.

"The Fourth Prince is even more ruthless than the Crown Prince. You have to be careful." Li Debing warned his son over and over again. Both father and son were loyal ministers, and they had no choice but to be passively involved in the struggle between the Fourth Prince and the Crown Prince.

Li Yuyan responded softly.

"What does your mother want to talk to you about?" Li Debing glanced at Li Yuyan's face with his wise eyes and suddenly changed the subject.

"Tell me something!" Li Yuyan said, but he didn't say anything about Wei Bingyan. He didn't know whether his father agreed to let him be with Wei Zhong's daughter.

"For your junior sister?" Li Debing didn't look at Li Yuyan, but just by listening to his voice he could tell that his tone was much harsher.

Li Yuyan slowly raised his head, looked into Li Debing's eyes calmly, and said word by word, "Father, my future daughter-in-law will only be her."

"What if I don't agree?" Li Debing asked coldly. He had to give up many principles to marry his children to the Wei family. Thinking of this, he was very unwilling to have his only son have anything to do with the daughter of the Wei family.

If possible, he would not be happy for his wife to accept such a little disciple!

Li Yuyan sighed, feeling somewhat helpless, but said firmly: "It doesn't matter who disagrees."

"You go out first, we'll talk about this matter later!" Li Debing remained silent for a long time before he spoke softly. He didn't want to discuss such a moot point with his son at this time.

Even if his son wanted to marry her, Wei Zhong might not agree, so he let someone else take on the role of bad guy.

After coming out of the study, Li Yuyan went towards the Wei family.

……

Wei Bingru couldn't stay in the outer courtyard for too long. After comforting Wei Fengjing, she returned to the inner courtyard.

She knew clearly that now the only person she and her brother could rely on was their father. However, their father already had so many daughters and two sons, and they were illegitimate children. It would be impossible for them to maintain their previous glory.

But what if the father has only one son?

Wei Longrui has Aunt Qiu, and Wei Zhong has Aunt Shen. Although Aunt Shen is also not favored, and Wei Zhong is also silly and not liked by his father, who can fully guarantee the future?

Before this, she thought that Aunt Qiu had no chance of getting her father's attention, but now she is the most popular one.

Wei Bingru racked her brains but could not think of a way to consolidate her father's love for her and her siblings. She walked slowly in the flower garden, with her head down, thinking over and over again, and did not notice that someone was coming in front of her.

"Isn't this the Second Young Miss? Why does she look so listless? Did she just come back from the Madam's place?" The one coming in front was Aunt Shen, holding a little boy of about five or six years old in her hand.

"Aunt Shen, are you going to mother's place? It turns out that Aunt Shen looks listless every time she comes out from mother's place?" Wei Bingru was worried about Xiao, but she still didn't take other concubines seriously.

"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't say that!" Aunt Shen's face changed slightly and she looked at Wei Bingru fiercely.

Wei Bingru smiled sarcastically and looked down at Wei Zhong. "Are you going to take Brother Zhong to the Madam, Aunt Shen? With Aunt Qiu and A Rui here, do you think the Madam will pay more attention to you?"

"It's better than being kicked out of the outer courtyard!" Aunt Shen said with a grim smile.

"Aunt Shen, do you think you and brother Zhong can rest easy? Brother Jing is still father's eldest son, but brother Zhong is nothing. Not to mention he is not as good as brother Jing, he is not even as good as A Rui. Alas, what have you achieved?" Wei Bingru sighed deeply and looked at Wei Zhong, her eyes filled with sympathy.

These words directly pierced the deepest pain in Aunt Shen's heart. She held her son's hand tightly and said, "Zhong'er is the master's son. The master will definitely not turn a deaf ear to it."

"He's not the only son..." Wei Bingru sighed, glancing at Aunt Shen from under her eyelids, "I won't bother Aunt Shen from going to the Madam, please."

Wei Bingru stepped aside to make way and asked Aunt Shen to go first.

Aunt Shen gritted her teeth, took Wei Zhong's hand and went to the main room.

Watching Aunt Shen leaving, Wei Bingru revealed a vicious and gloomy smile.

When she appeared in the main room, before she entered the house, Aunt Shen heard Xiao's joyful laughter. It turned out that it was Aunt Qiu who brought A Rui here. Xiao was checking A Rui's studies and seemed very satisfied.

She lowered her head to look at her son, feeling extremely angry. If the old man had only one son, Zhong'er, then the lady would definitely treat Zhong'er like a treasure.

"Madam Shen and Zhong'er are here." Madam Qiu had sharp eyesight and saw them, and she opened her mouth with a smile and spoke in a friendly voice.

Xiao didn't raise his neck, but just talked to A Rui.

Aunt Shen forced a smile, and found Aunt Qiu more and more annoying.
