Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

"Is there anyone who can go against His Majesty?" Li Yuyan looked at the admiral who was receiving salary from the emperor, his eyes full of mockery.

"You...you really are...a rotten tree that cannot be carved!" I thought this Lord Li was clear-headed and intelligent, but I didn't expect him to be such a conservative person.

Li left again, and the officials, both big and small, in the main hall also left with sighs.

The Marquis of Baiyue City stayed instead.

Wei Zhong, who had remained silent, was also standing nearby, looking at Li Yuyan with a frown.

Fang Shengjing came up and asked, "Sir?"

"You go back first. Someone will tell you what to do in the future." Li Yuyan said softly.

"Yes, I'm taking my leave." Fang Shengjing bowed and left humbly.

"Young Master Li..." Wei Qing wanted to persuade him but was stopped by Li Yuyan.

Li Yuyan said, "Master Wei, I am not feeling well and it is not appropriate for me to talk to you any longer. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it another day. I am leaving now."

Wei Qing sighed, "Master Li, please take care of yourself."

After sending Wei Qing away, Li Yuyan looked at Wei Zhong with a smile, "Father-in-law?"

"You have offended all the officials in Baiyue City." Wei Zhong looked at him and said coldly.

Over the past year, he has indulged in sensual pleasures, his eyes have become seriously swollen and black, and even his body is no longer the same as before. But today, when he saw his son-in-law and Linghu Longyan in a stalemate, he suddenly thought of the glory and ideals he had in the capital at that time.

He originally wanted to become a famous official with the help of the crown prince!

Li Yuyan smiled indifferently, "It will offend sooner or later."

Wei Zhong looked at him deeply and said, "You are only injured this time, but you may not be able to survive next time."

"There won't be so many next times." Li Yuyan said softly. His tone was already very cold towards Wei Zhong.

"You brat!" Wei Zhong snorted softly and left immediately afterwards.

Wei Bingyan came to Wei's house the day after she suspected that Li Xiaoshi had given Wei Zhong medicine.

Xiao was feeding Ah Sheng porridge when she heard the servant's message and hurriedly asked Wei Bingyan to come in. Ah Sheng saw Wei Bingyan and stopped eating her porridge. She slipped down from the armchair and ran directly to Wei Bingyan, hugging her thighs tightly, "Sister, sister..."

"Ah Sheng!" Wei Bingyan happily picked up Ah Sheng, "Oh, he's a lot heavier now."

Xiao put down the bowl in her hand and looked at Wei Bingyan in confusion, "Why are you here when you are not at home taking care of your son-in-law?"

"He went out to do something. I came to take a look." Wei Bingyan said, and sat down with Ah Sheng in her arms.

"Aunt Yin's matter..." Xiao paused. Aunt Yin was shot and died for Wei Bingyan. Her affairs after her death could not be dealt with casually.

When Aunt Yin was mentioned directly, Wei Bingyan felt sad deep down in her heart. "The people from Guanzhuang took her back, and her funeral was handled at Guanzhuang. I think Aunt Yin also wanted to be buried with her husband."

Xiao nodded and said nothing more.

Wei Bingyan held Ah Sheng's delicate little hand, which was as soft as a cake, and asked, "Mom, where is father?"

"Didn't the son-in-law announce the final result of the bidding today? Maybe he went there." Xiao replied and continued to coax Ah Sheng to eat porridge.

Not back yet...

Wei Bingyan's eyes flickered slightly as she asked about Wei Zhong's recent health condition.

"Alas, his body is much weaker than before. I asked the doctor to come and take his pulse a few days ago, and he just told him not to drink too much." Xiao said.

"Why don't I take a look for my father?" Wei Bingyan said with a smile. Although she felt that Li Xiaoshi would not really hurt Wei Zhong, she still wanted to make sure.

Xiao said, "Your father is extremely stubborn and thinks women are useless, so why would he be willing to let you feel his pulse?"

"Mom, don't we have you?" Wei Bingyan said with a smile, encouraging Xiao to persuade Wei Zhong to let her take his pulse.

"I'll talk to him when he comes back," said Xiao.

The mother and daughter continued talking for a while, and soon they heard the maid report that the old man had returned.

Just as Xiao was about to stand up to greet him, Wei Zhong had already lifted the curtain and walked in.

Unexpectedly, Wei Bingyan was also here. After being slightly stunned, Wei Zhong looked at A Sheng with a bright and warm smile.

Although Wei Zhong was deeply involved in sensual pleasures, his concern for Ah Sheng never diminished.

Although Wei Zhong cared about his other three sons, he never held them in his arms. Only A Sheng was special to him. Every day when he returned home, he would hold him and talk to him before going to the study or other concubines' rooms.

Xiao brought Wei Zhong a cup of tea and asked, "Why did you come back so early today?"

Wei Zhong said he was fine and returned. After that, he craned his neck and looked at Wei Bingyan, "Didn't you encounter Japanese pirates at sea? Are you injured?"

Wei Bingyan bowed her head and said, "My daughter is fine."

"Don't go out unless necessary. Baiyue City won't be very peaceful recently." Wei Zhong said softly.

"Yes, father." There was something else behind his words. It might be because of Li Yuyan's bidding today. I'm afraid these people in Beijing will want to deal with him even more.

Xiao smiled and said, "I heard you say before that you couldn't sleep well at night. Bingyan just came back. Why don't you let her take your pulse?"

"Didn't you just call a doctor? No need." Wei Zhong said.

"I only trust my own daughter." Xiao said sincerely, "Even if professional doctors don't treat themselves, you are not sick. I just want Bingyan to check your pulse. If it's really as the doctor said, I can rest assured."

Xiao Shi hasn't cared about him so much for a long time! Wei Zhong couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart, and he nodded in agreement.

There was a dazzling light in Wei Bingyan's eyes, and she hurriedly sat down to take Wei Zhong's pulse.

His pulse was beating lightly and floatingly, which was simply caused by his indulgence in sexual desire day and night. There was no other problem. It seemed that Li Xiaoshi had no intention of poisoning Wei Zhong with tea as expected, but just didn't want to have his child.

"Father should learn some health preservation skills, otherwise no matter how many nutritional supplements he takes, it will not help." Wei Bingyan's words were simple but meaningful. If Wei Zhong continued like this, his health would be ruined sooner or later.

The vague meaning of these words was clearly heard by everyone present. Wei Zhong withdrew his hand, snorted, and did not answer.

Wei Bingyan smiled gently, "Has father met Third Uncle?"

When Wei Dongbi was mentioned, Wei Zhong's expression changed, "Have you met your third uncle?"

"Fortunately, Third Uncle and Lord Zheng arrived in time, otherwise my husband and I might have been killed by the Japanese pirates at sea. Third Uncle returned to Baiyue City with us. I thought he would look for you." Wei Bingyan said.

She hadn't seen her Third Uncle for four or five years. If her Third Uncle hadn't revealed his identity that day, she really wouldn't have been able to tell him apart. She never expected that her Third Uncle would recognize her so immediately.
