Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

What did the old man tell her? Wei Bingyan's face showed a little confusion.

Soon, she thought of that incident...

After returning from the palace that day, the old master told her that if her mother gave birth to a legitimate child of the Wei family one day, she should find a way to make Wei Zhong leave the court, and it would be best if she left the capital as quickly as possible, and from now on she should not have anything to do with the prince's party.

The old man also said that he would decide her marriage and let her marry Li Yuyan, and asked Li Yuyan to help her deal with this matter.

At that time, Wei Bingyan was so angry that her marriage was decided so casually that she didn't seriously think about what the old man meant by that. Now that the old man mentioned it again, she realized that he was serious.

“Grandfather, what do you mean…” Wei Bingyan felt her throat dry and hoarse as she spoke, “We really need to find a way to make Father…”

“Yes!” Old Master Wei turned his back to Wei Bingyan and said intently, “Your father is slowly alienating the prince now. If he is asked to stand on the prince’s side again, it will probably be even more difficult in the future.”

Wei Bingyan looked at Old Master Wei, whose shoulders were still straight as a standard, and felt increasingly puzzled. She couldn't help but ask softly, "Grandpa, why do you want to do this? Do you really think that His Majesty will really depose the Crown Prince?"

The old man turned his head and looked at Wei Bingyan with bright eyes. After hesitating for a while, he said, "At that time, your father joined the prince's faction. It was my secret intention, but it was not my true intention at all. It was just to create an unrealistic illusion.

Your father is of ordinary talent. I never thought that he could become a person with such a great influence on the prince. But what is even more unexpected is that the prince is surrounded by a bunch of idiots. Now even Tang Yongnian has left the prince's mansion. The prince will definitely rely more on your father in the future.

Although the incident that happened to you in the past caused the prince to secretly feel conflicted with your father, but after all, your father still has the entire Wei family behind him..."

"Your Majesty has already begun to suppress the Li family with all his strength, and the next is the Linghu family. Bingyan, the Holy Heart is mysterious and unpredictable. Even though Your Majesty knows that your father cannot bring any benefits to the Crown Prince, he will inevitably be suspicious. Therefore, keeping your father away from the capital is the best way."

This was the first time that the old master told Wei Bingyan so directly that Wei Zhong's help to the prince was not the real purpose of the Wei family. She finally expressed her inner speculation, "Father helped the prince only to deliberately cover up the real purpose of the Wei family. Grandpa, is this what His Majesty meant?"

Old Master Wei looked at her and said, "Your Majesty has been controlled by the Li and Linghu families for many years. How can you endure their continued growth? It's just that the time is not ripe yet."

"Then, who is it? Who is the prince that the grandfather wants to help secretly? Is he the one in His Majesty's heart?" Wei Bingyan suddenly felt her throat was swollen and dry. She swallowed and asked in a hoarse voice.

"Our Wei family has stood firm for many years because we started out as your Majesty's subordinates, thinking what your Majesty thought and doing what your Majesty wanted to do." Old Master Wei replied with concentration, and his meaning was already very clear.

It was the Sixth Prince! Wei Bingyan suddenly understood that in her previous life, after the Sixth Prince came to power, she did not suppress Wei Zhong, who was once an important military advisor to the Crown Prince, so that the Wei family had survived two years in peace. If she had not slandered Wei Zhong, perhaps the Wei family would have continued to grow stronger...

"But I'm just a powerless woman. How can I influence my father's career? Grandpa has too high expectations of me." Wei Bingyan said.

"Bingyan, as long as you think about Ah Sheng, you will find a way." Old Master Wei's wise, calm and steady eyes leaped high with the flickering candlelight. In the Wei family, he knew Wei Bingyan better than anyone else. Such a lovely little granddaughter was already smart, and after going to Jinyun City, she seemed to have a new look. If it were someone else, they might not have the courage to take action against their own father, but if it was Bingyan, she would definitely not show mercy.

The old man looked at her and said in a heavy voice, "If I could take the initiative, I would naturally not entrust this matter to you."

Wei Bingyan remained silent. She knew clearly what the old man meant. In order not to arouse His Majesty's serious suspicion, he could not take the initiative. But if it were her, with her current reputation for disobedience, she would naturally not arouse His Majesty's suspicion too much.

"Grandpa, I can only do my best." Wei Bingyan said.

Old Master Wei nodded, as if he had full confidence in Wei Bingyan.

After talking to the old man, Wei Bingyan went to the main room. Xiao had already woken up and Wei Zhong was feeding her.

"Mom, how do you feel?" When Wei Bingyan saw Xiao wake up, her face showed joy and she hurried over.

Xiao smiled and said, "Nothing, I just feel very tired."

"Master said that you need to rest well for a few days before you can recover. A Sheng has really made you suffer too much." Wei Bingyan directly mentioned her brother who was born not long ago, and her facial features were bent with smile.

"Did you hear me? You should have a good rest." Wei Zhong fed Xiao a mouthful of porridge and spoke softly.

Xiao glared at Wei Bingyan, "Why am I so weak? It's just giving birth to a child. I can get up in a few days."

Wei Bingyan glanced at Wei Zhong. At this moment, such a man behaved very well and was very good to her mother. Although he was not very friendly to her, at least he was not as ruthless as before, especially when he said just now that his wife must not be in trouble.

Those words are indeed very touching.

But Wei Bingyan still didn't believe it. Wei Zhong had already changed, and it might only be a temporary thing.

"If it weren't for Wei Bingru, how could you have had a miscarriage? Mother, you really scared me just now." Wei Bingyan thought of the moment when Xiao fell to the ground, and her heart stopped beating. The panic she felt now still makes her shudder.

Since Wei Zhong came back, he had not asked Xiao why she gave birth early. Now, after hearing what Wei Bingyan said, his face darkened a little. "Bingyan, what do you mean?"

"I don't know where my second sister heard from others about what happened to Lord Chu today. She suddenly became crazy and manic, thinking that mother was deliberately questioning her, so she rushed towards mother without saying a word. Although a maid stopped her, mother was still frightened and fell to the ground..." Wei Bingyan said coldly. If something really happened to her mother today, she would definitely make Wei Bingru suffer!

"That's totally unreasonable!" Wei Zhong cursed, "How dare Xiaoru be so rash!"

He looked at the frightened expression on Wei Bingyan's face, then at Xiao's pale face. Thinking that his legitimate child was almost killed by Wei Bingru, Wei Zhong's temper continued to rise.

"Grandpa, actually it's not all Miss Second's fault. I felt pain at that time as well..." Xiao pulled Wei Zhong's elegant sleeve and spoke softly.

"You don't have to plead with her anymore. Don't I know what kind of person Xiaoru is? You take a rest, I'll be back soon!" Wei Zhong handed the bowl in his hand to Wei Bingyan, "Take good care of your mother!"

Wei Bingyan's lips curved slightly, and a faint smile flashed across her face, "Yes, father."

"Old man!" Xiao was still thinking about calling Wei Zhong loudly, "Second Miss was just frightened by what Lord Chu said, it was not intentional..."

"Madam, you are too kind-hearted. That's why you let these people bully you one by one. If I don't punish her this time, there might be a next time!" Wei Zhong said angrily, and then strode out of the soft ear chamber with his head held high.

Wei Bingyan frowned and looked at Xiao, then sat down beside the bed. "Why did mother still talk to her? If we let her go this time, what will she do to Ah Sheng next time?"

Xiao raised her eyebrows and looked at Wei Bingyan with amusement. "I spoke for her and for Ah Sheng, but... this time she really wasn't lucky. I really felt pain at that time, otherwise how could I be so afraid of falling down."

"Mom, for Ah Sheng, you must not be too kind!" Being too kind to someone like Wei Bingru is like placing an invisible cold sword behind you that will pierce you at any time.

"I know!" Xiao nodded slightly. For the sake of her child, she would definitely not be too kind.

……

Wei Bingru was forcibly dragged back into the room by two servants, and the door of the room was locked. No matter how she cursed and yelled, they ignored her until she became hysterical, and then Wei Bingru finally quieted down.

She was quiet, not because she had thought it through completely, she just suddenly thought of Xiao's fall just now. If it could save two lives with one corpse, she would accept it even if she had to become a widow.

I don’t know how much time had passed, the sky gradually darkened, and the blurry lights lit up one by one.

"The wife has given birth!" Someone outside shouted.

What followed was endless jubilation.
