Chongxi [rebirth]

Chapter 24 Chongxi Day 24

Ye Zhili's face turned blue and red. He was the Duke of Qi, and later he became the official secretary. He was the only one who kept others from stepping down, but no one dared to shame him in public like this.

King Yong'an was the first.

His hands covered by his sleeves trembled slightly, and he really realized why so many people dared not speak out against King Yong'an in the past.

It's too arrogant!

However, the situation is stronger than others, and now the emperor can't do anything to him, he is angry, so he has to endure it for the time being.

Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

"My lord is right."

Ye Zhili took a deep breath and let it out slowly. After calming down his anger, he changed into a loving father's face in the blink of an eye, and looked at Ye Yunting tenderly: "Before I came, I was worried about your poor life. Now I see the prince treats you like this." Alright, but I’m worrying too much about my father.”

"Yes." Yin Hongye covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and echoed, "Our Eldest Young Master has entered the palace, and it is more and more different from the past. When I saw your father and I in the past, we had to greet you in a proper manner. Now that I'm a princess, my family members have to ask for instructions even if they say a few words of their own."

She had a smile on her face, but there was a needle hidden in her words.Accused Ye Yunting of holding his identity and disrespecting his parents.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Before Ye Yunting could say anything, Ye Zhili scolded, frowned and said in displeasure: "Yunting has a gentle and pure temperament since childhood, and he is the most filial to his parents." After speaking, he turned to Ye Yunting with a gentle expression Said: "You know your mother's temperament, she is not forgiving, but in fact she cares about you in her heart." He pulled Ye Wang who had never said a word: "Even your brother, who is heartless, listened to you today. Said that your mother and I were going to see you, and made a fuss to follow."

Ye Wang was pulled by him and forced to come forward, face to face with Ye Yunting.

He didn't dare to look at Ye Yunting, he quickly looked away,

——I heard that my father and mother were going to visit the palace, but he still came after all.But when I really saw someone, I felt guilty and dared not face it.

He didn't even know what kind of attitude he should use to face Ye Yunting.

Ye Wang lowered his head, pursed his lips tightly, broke away from Ye Zhili's restraining hand in silence, and retreated behind Yin Hongye.

Ye Zhili originally wanted to take advantage of the brotherhood to ease the atmosphere, but unexpectedly, Ye Fan was so uncooperative, his face froze when his hand was empty, and then he laughed and scolded: "Before you were the one who was arguing to follow, why don't you come now?" You came, but you didn’t talk to your elder brother?”

Ye Wan clenched his jaw and didn't answer, Ye Zhili had no choice but to continue singing the one-man show.He has been in the officialdom, and he has long practiced the ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense: "Why don't we find a quiet place where the whole family can have a good talk?"

Seeing his benevolent face, Ye Yunting thought it was ridiculous.

In the past ten years, he had never spoken to him in such a gentle tone.Absolutely most of the time, he is impatient, bossy, and condescending.

They are not like father and son, but more like king and minister, master and servant.

In front of Ye Zhili, he never had the right to choose, he could only passively accept all unfair treatment.

But now, he is no longer the young master of Duke Qi's mansion. Good or bad, life or death, he can decide for himself instead of being forced to accept other people's arrangements.

Ye Yunting thought of this in his heart, so he really laughed.

He originally had a gentle appearance, like a piece of jade that had been polished extremely smooth without edges and corners, but when he smiled now, it seemed that the jade was covered with a layer of frost and snow, and dyed a cold color.

"I remember the day I was sent to the palace, I told my father. From then on, I have nothing to do with Duke Qi's mansion."

He had a calm face, and stared directly at Ye Zhili with his dark eyes: "Now that my father has come to the palace, what's the point of talking about the relationship between father and son?" There is no feeling of nurturing. The kindness of birth has been cleared since the day you sent me to the palace. Between us, what else can we say? What kind of love can we talk about?"

Ye Yunting held back these words for a long time, but now that he finally said them himself, he felt refreshed.

There was a peaceful look between his brows, no resentment, no resentment, he just asked calmly.

Ye Zhili was used to talking in circles in official circles, but now that he responded bluntly, he was stunned for a moment, and then furious.

His eyes widened in anger, and he pointed at Ye Yunting with trembling fingers: "Okay, okay! You have learned etiquette, integrity, and shame all these years, and you have learned it in the stomach of a dog? Disobedience, disobedience, disobedience to parents! I shouldn't have stayed behind. you!"

"Father is confused. I have never been to school, and no one taught me etiquette." Ye Yunting said with a calm expression, "I am today, thanks to my father."

The children of rich and noble families are enlightened at the age of three, and enter the family school at the age of eight. If they are more powerful, they can enter the Imperial College at the age of 12.

Duke Qi's Mansion is the home of the first-class dignitaries in the capital, but Ye Yunting, as the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, has never attended a serious school, and no one will believe it if he tells this story.

Ye Yunting was ignorant back then, but the nanny once told him that the Duke was too biased, wiping away tears.The young master invited a gentleman to enlighten him, but he ignored the elder master.

At that time, he didn't know what Kaimeng meant, but when he saw the nanny crying sadly, he wanted to talk to his father and ask him to hire a teacher to enlighten him, so that the nanny wouldn't wipe away her tears.As a result, he was reprimanded by Ye Zhili.He didn't understand what it meant at the time, he just felt a little disappointed.On the way back, I passed by Ye Fan's yard, and I accidentally heard someone reading "Thousand Characters" inside, and I became curious and eavesdropped on the wall, and then I vaguely understood why the nanny was sad.

Maybe it’s because he loves to read and practice calligraphy in his nature. On that day, he heard his husband read in the yard, “The heaven and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is wild and wild. The sun and the moon are full, and the stars are listed.” Read it over and over again.On that day, my husband read the "Thousand Characters" twice, and he also memorized it.

But he had no one to teach him, and he couldn't figure out what it meant, so he finally couldn't help but have the courage to ask him when he was on his way from school.At that time, the husband heard him recite "Thousand Characters" once, so he didn't ask him anything else, but let him go to his yard every day after dark, and personally taught him to read and practice calligraphy.

After a few years like this, under the guidance of his husband, he will not be illiterate.

Later, when Ye Wang turned eight years old, he went to study at home.Mr. asked to leave the mansion, and left many books to him before he left. He read in the yard every day, and he was happy that no one took care of him.If Ye Zhili hadn't sent him to the prince's mansion for the sake of his son's status, he might have spent his whole life in the remote courtyard of the Duke's mansion, and there would not have been many things that happened later.

He didn't have a choice before, but now, he doesn't want to be trapped in that narrow yard anymore.Even if you die, you have to die in the vast world outside.

Ye Zhili was choked by him, he was full of accusations and paused for a while, he recovered his voice after a while, and sneered: "You really resent me, I read it right back then, you are just as cold-hearted as your mother!"

Yin Hongye's eyes flickered slightly, pushed his arm, and said softly: "Master Wang has been dead for so many years, why bother to mention her again. The young master is now in the palace, and he doesn't want to get close to us. Master just follow his wishes." She turned to look at Ye Yunting: "Eldest Young Master, you should make up your mind to draw a line with Duke Qi's mansion today, and you won't regret it in the future."

She raised her lips and waited for Ye Yunting's response.

Today's visit to the palace was not for any father-son relationship, but for the matter of asking for a seal from the eldest son.Now Ye Yunting took the initiative to draw a clear line with the Duke's Mansion, which saved them a lot of trouble.

Since he is not from the Duke's Mansion, the position of son of the prince naturally has nothing to do with him.

Ye Zhili came to his senses after being reminded by her.Previously, he was dazzled by Ye Yunting's anger, so he forgot the real purpose of this trip.

"Your mother is right, have you thought it through? Since you have separated from my biological father, then my title as Duke of Qi will have nothing to do with you in the future."

"When did this title ever have anything to do with me?" Seeing that they finally revealed their true purpose, Ye Yunting sneered: "You don't want to give it, why did you ever ask me if I want it?"

If you can draw a clear relationship with the Duke of Qi, you don't need this title.

However, what he said was frank, but others refused to believe it easily.

Yin Hongye said: "Eldest young master said it nicely, but the title needs to be inherited by the eldest son. Now that you have the backing of King Yong'an, who dares to go past you? If you are telling the truth, why don't you write a letter of request?" Leave it to us."

Asking for the dictionary means that the successor Chen Dexing is not worthy of inheriting the title, so he expresses his feelings to the emperor and gives up the inheritance of the title.

From ancient times to the present, few people have written dictionaries.Even Yin Hongye only remembered in a hurry, there is still such a method that can be used.

She raised her chin and looked contemptuously.It seems that Ye Yunting is coveting the title if he doesn't write a dictionary.

"Are you dead as my king?" Li Fengqi's face was extremely ugly after listening for a while.

He glanced at Yin Hongye and Ye Zhili in turn, with invisible coercion: "Duke Qi, I only respect you because you are Yun Ting's biological father. But do you really think that you can do this in the future?" Domineering in front of Princess Yongan?"

"Before father and son, there are monarchs and ministers." He leaned forward, staring at Ye Zhili with cold eyes: "Since the Duke of Qi is a subject, when facing the king and the princess, he should perform the courtesies. Do you think the king is right?"

Ye Zhili was watched closely by him, and he clenched his fists so as not to back off to show his timidity, he twitched, and forced a smile: "It's the minister who overstepped."

Li Fengqi nodded in satisfaction, and said: "As for the matter of the title, there are rules in the law. The title of duke and marquis should be inherited by the eldest son, and the eldest son is immoral or dead, and then he will go down one by one." He caressed his clothes slowly Xie: "Yun Ting is the eldest son, and he has no virtue to lose. Naturally, this title should be whatever it is."

"Although this title is not very rare, but what should be his is his. It's one thing if he doesn't want it, but it's another thing if you don't want it!" Li Fengqi's voice sank suddenly, with intense anger: " If you don’t understand this truth, I don’t mind teaching you personally.”

His eyes were sharp, and a red long whip was shaken from his sleeve with his right hand. Although he didn't move, his eyes were clearly full of warning.

Ye Zhili didn't expect that he would be so blatantly threatening. How could he be a first-rank member of the court, and Wang An of Yong'an dared to insult him like this? !

He gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, don't bully people too much. Even if this matter comes up to His Majesty, I have something to say."

Li Fengqi carelessly stroked his long whip, and smiled lightly: "Oh? Li Zong hasn't dared to see me until now. If Qi Guogong can persuade him, I would like to thank you."

"You, you..." Ye Zhili choked, remembering that he and the emperor had been inseparable for a long time, otherwise they wouldn't be so blind to others.

Knowing that he might not be able to achieve his goal today, and that he would be the only one who would suffer if he continued to argue, he waved his sleeves and stood up: "Since that's the case, I won't be here to hinder the eyes of the prince and concubine, so I will leave!"

After speaking, he walked out of the hall angrily.

Seeing this, Yin Hongye hurriedly pulled the dazed Ye Wang to follow.

"Duke Qi, walk slowly, don't fall." Li Fengqi reminded slowly.

Ye Zhili staggered when he heard the words, stabilized his body and left the palace without looking back.

Ye Wan was followed by his mother, subconsciously looked back, and saw that in the hall, King Yong'an swept his face coldly, and was talking to Ye Yunting with a smile.Ye Yunting lowered his head, although he didn't smile, his expression was very gentle.

He stopped abruptly and broke away from Yin Hongye's hand.

"I don't want the position of the son of the world."

Yin Hongye was stunned: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Ye Wan shook his head, took a step back, his expression gradually changed from confusion to firmness, and he said again: "I don't want to be the crown prince. I'll go and explain it to him."

After speaking, he turned around and strode back.

Ye Yunting was talking with Li Fengqi, when he saw Ye Wang running back suddenly, the tall young man stood in front of the hall door, looking at him with Lang Lang: "Ye Yunting, I have something to tell you."

Li Fengqi glanced at him playfully, then turned to look at Ye Yunting.

Ye Yunting hesitated for a moment, but walked up to him: "What do you want to say?"

"It's inconvenient to talk about it here." Ye Wan suddenly grabbed his arm and led him to run out of the hall, he didn't stop until he found a secluded bamboo forest.

After running, his breath was a little uneven, his thin chest heaved violently, but his voice was firm: "I didn't know that you were sent to the palace because of me."

Ye Yunting lowered his eyes: "This has nothing to do with you."

"But I know now." Ye Fan shook his head: "I don't want the title of son, it should be yours. My own title, I will earn it myself."

"..." Ye Yunting was speechless and could only say "That's good".

"It's better for you to live in the prince's mansion than in the Duke's mansion." Ye Wang didn't intend to stop there, looked at him with burning eyes and said: "But men like the new and dislike the old, if you will not be happy in the prince's mansion in the future , I will take you back." After speaking, thinking that Ye Yunting probably didn't want to go back to the Duke's Mansion, he hurriedly added: "If you don't go back to the Duke's Mansion, you can go wherever you want."

Ye Yunting laughed: "You don't have to worry about this for me."

"I know you don't believe me, but I...and my parents didn't treat you well in the past." Ye Wan pursed his lips and said very seriously: "But it won't happen in the future. I won't let people bully you again, and neither no."

Seeing Ye Yunting's gorgeous attire today, Ye Wang realized more and more clearly what kind of life Ye Yunting lived in the Duke's mansion before.

He couldn't blame his parents, but he was ashamed of Ye Yunting. After thinking about it, only by becoming famous and winning the title of title can his parents give up their plan to fight for the title.Only if he can become stronger, and Ye Yunting is wronged in Yong'an Palace in the future, he can support him.

A boy who has not yet grown up, his thoughts are always passionate and pure.

He thought with great anticipation that when he became stronger, he would be able to find a balance between the two important parties.

Ye Yunting saw through his thoughts, his eyes were slightly moved, but he didn't break his innocence.He hesitated for a moment, then responded with a smile: "Okay."

Ye Wan then laughed happily, he opened and closed his lips several times, wanting to call out Big Brother, but in the end it was too jerky, so he couldn't call out in the end.He just pursed his lips and said: "Then we have agreed, Ah Qing will leave it to you, and you will take good care of it for me. If you are wronged, you can also ask it to send me a letter."

Ah Qing is the name of the Saker Falcon.

Ye Yunting's eyes were soft, and he still said "OK".

"Then I'll go first." Ye Wang was affirmed, there was still a little youthful expression in his brows and eyes, he took two steps back, waved to Ye Yunting, then turned and left.

Ye Yunting looked at his back, and the raised corners of his lips slowly fell.

"I didn't expect a good shoot to grow out of the bad bamboo." Li Fengqi turned the wheelchair and walked slowly from one end.

"Mrs. Yin protected him very well. There are many secrets in the Duke's mansion, and they deliberately avoid him." Ye Yunting said.

"Then they raised a fool." Li Fengqi sneered: "But a fool also has the advantages of a fool, and it can be regarded as doing the king a favor."

Ye Yunting narrowed his eyes, looked at the figure that was getting smaller and smaller until he couldn't see clearly, and sighed: "Unfortunately, he might be disappointed."

Since he boarded Yong'an King's boat, he will die with the Duke's Mansion and the Yin family sooner or later.

Court battles, power changes, it's never your death or my death.

A few days ago, at the court, Li Fengqi forced the emperor to send the second son of the Yin family to the Xing Prison of Dali Temple.And this is just the beginning, King Yong'an's counterattack is far more than that.

Ye Wan was young, so he couldn't see clearly the turbulent undercurrent, but he could see clearly.

In the past, he only knew that Ye Fan was arrogant and stubborn, and he was not close to him.Even because the disparity between the two sides is too great, every time I see him, I always feel a little complicated and unspeakable. After a long time, I intentionally or unintentionally distance myself from him, so as not to cause unnecessary troubles.

Ye Wang, on the other hand, was flamboyant, pure and innocent, no matter how perfunctory he dealt with it, he always seemed unable to understand.He looked like he was showing his teeth and claws, but in fact he didn't even show the tip of his claws.

Most of the time, it's not that Ye Yunting doesn't understand what he means, but just pretends not to understand.It's just because I don't want to get too involved with him and cause unnecessary trouble.

But listening to his words today, I couldn't bear it.

Ye Yunting talked about the relationship between the two of them in the past and listened to Li Fengqi: "Do you think I am too indifferent?"

Li Fengqi looked at him, raised his brows high: "I think you are too soft-hearted. But just a few words make you feel guilty?"

Ye Yunting showed helplessness, and pushed him to the main courtyard: "Forget it, it's useless to think about it now. He and I are destined to be brothers."
