Chongxi [rebirth]

Qi Guogong wanted to open the ancestral hall, and the news of his son's recognition quickly spread among the aristocratic families in Shangjing.Everyone was discussing where Ye Zhili's son came from.

At this time, the emperor issued an imperial decree, saying that Ye Boru, the second son of Qi Guogong, had meritorious service in escorting him, and promoted him to be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.Ye Boru has become the youngest fourth-rank official from a concubine with unknown background, and he still fills the vacancies in the official department.It has made countless people envious.

Originally the most objectionable issue of parentage was also justifiably placed on the table by the emperor's imperial decree.

Ye Zhili, who had never explained this issue before, came forward to explain, saying that the second son was originally born to a good concubine in the family.

This matter can be traced back more than ten years ago. At that time, he continued to marry the Yin family. Because the Yin family was worried that their daughter would not be able to suppress the concubine's room after entering the mansion, and would be bullied by the concubine's room, they made a request. It is to ask him to dismiss all the original concubines.He was grateful for Yin's sincerity towards him, and Yin's was much younger than him, so he sent away the original two or three concubines in the mansion with the intention of cherishing and caring.But what I didn't expect was that one of the concubines, Mrs. Feng, was already pregnant when she was dismissed from the mansion, and she found out that she was pregnant after more than three months.But at that time, he and Yin Shi were just about to get married, so in order not to make Yin Shi sad, he simply took Feng Shi outside, and he never brought Feng Shi back all these years.

Ye Zhili said that three points and two points, shook his head and said helplessly: "It is a last resort to bring him back now, and I don't know what the situation is with my youngest son in Yunrong... Although I am sorry for the madam, this is a big country. Always leave it behind..."

He spoke with sincerity, and the people who listened were also sighing.

Now Qi Guogong is a celebrity around His Majesty, and since the Dali Temple is still on trial, many officials want to establish a good relationship with Ye Zhili.Hearing the words, they echoed one after another: "Qi Guogong treats his wife with the utmost benevolence."

"That's right, the Yin family started a rebellion, and they are already traitors. If it was an ordinary family, I'm afraid they would have divorced their wives and cleared the relationship..."

Another person said: "Besides, the second son is a good-looking talent. He has been seated as a fourth-rank servant at a young age. He is still in the Ministry of Officials. He has a bright future in the future."

Ye Zhili could hear it in his heart, but he still shook his head and said: "Everyone is absurd, Bo Ru is still young, and he still has to learn." He also said: "On the day of the eighteenth, everyone, remember to come to have a drink .”

A group of officials immediately replied: "Definitely, definitely."

After parting from his colleagues, Ye Zhili just put away his smile and returned to the Duke's Mansion in a sedan chair.

After entering the mansion, his complexion darkened, and he asked the steward, "How is Madam today?"

The steward said: "Madam is still losing her temper."

Ye Zhili had thought of this day when he decided to let Ye Boru recognize his ancestor and return to his clan.But he wasn't too worried, now that the Yin family has been beaten into a chaotic party, no matter how much the Yin family makes a fuss, they still won't be able to find a third of an acre of land.If she could see the situation clearly, he might still miss some old feelings, if the trouble continued...

A stern look flashed across Ye Zhili's eyes, and he walked towards the main courtyard: "I'll go and have a look."

When I arrived at the gate of the main courtyard, I saw that the courtyard was in a mess, the flowers and plants had been uprooted and thrown everywhere, and there were broken porcelain pieces in different colors on the ground, and I don't know how many things were broken.

Ye Zhili frowned, and scolded "nonsense".

Afterwards, before she stepped in, she saw Yin Hongye striding out. When she saw Ye Zhili, she sneered, "Master Guo, do you have the guts to come to see me in the main courtyard today?"

"Why don't I dare to see my wife?"

Ye Zhili's face no longer had the hypocritical warmth he pretended to be. For Yin Hongye, he had put up with it all these years.Now that the Yin family has collapsed, he naturally has no scruples anymore.

"I won't come here for a few days, just to let you clear your temper and think about it carefully." He emphasized his tone: "Now...do you think it through?"

Looking at his extremely strange face, Yin Hongye's hands hidden in her sleeves tightened tightly. She had heard the rumors these days, but she didn't have the time to be jealous at this time. She gritted her teeth and held her head high. Chin said: "I've thought it over clearly, you can take any slut you like into the mansion, and you can recognize whichever bastard you like as your son. I don't care about you, let me go to Yunrong to find you. "

Since hearing that the Yin family rebelled, Yin Hongye's heart has been cooking like a frying pan every day.On the one hand, she was worried about Ye Wang's safety, on the other hand, she was afraid that the Yin family's army would be defeated and that something would happen to her relatives.

She sent many letters to Yun Rong, wanting to contact her father, begging him to send Ye Wang back secretly, but Ye Zhili stopped all these letters.She is not allowed to contact Yunrong.

After doing the math, it has been more than a month since Ye Fan went to Yunrong, and there has been no news from Ye Fan in this month. She dare not think about Ye Fan's current situation, so she can only pray every day that her father and grandfather can read her Save face, treat Ye Wang well.

But I didn't expect that a wave of ups and downs would rise again.

Ye Zhili seemed to be a different person after the Yin family incident.In the past, Ye Zhili was gentle and refined, always caring and considerate in front of her, even if she lost her temper and made trouble unreasonably, he could only coax her, and seldom showed embarrassment to her.

But now he locked her in the yard, forbidding her to send letters to Yunrong, and also refused to send anyone to inquire about Ye Wang's news.Up to now, there is even an extra concubine and a son out of thin air.

That bastard was almost 19 years old, so he was only a little younger than Ye Yunting!

Yin Hongye suddenly felt that she had never seen the person next to her pillow clearly in these years.She was suffocating fire in her heart, but she was more worried about her son.

She repeated again: "I don't care about you, and you don't care about me. You don't care about Wang'er's life or death. I will go find him myself."

Ye Zhili sneered, took out a few letters from his sleeve and threw them at her feet: "I think you haven't figured it out yet, so take a good look, these are all letters from your father and grandfather these days! Don't worry about the third child, he won't come back."

Yin Hongye's heart skipped a beat, she hurriedly bent down to pick up the letters, and read them one by one.

This letter was written by her father, Yin Chengwu, and the intention in the letter was nothing more than to hope that Ye Zhili would cooperate with them to attack Shangjing together.At the beginning, the words were gentle, but later on, they gradually became sharper, and Ye Wang was mentioned, and the threat was palpable.

"How could this be so..." Yin Hongye's heart twisted, and the letter fell on the ground. She fell to the ground, then got up and grabbed Ye Zhili's sleeve, begging: "You let me write a letter to my father." Believe me, I will go and ask my father, he will come back without hesitation."

"Then ask Ginseng and me to collude with the rebel party?" Ye Zhili shook her off impatiently, and warned: "After His Majesty recuperates, he will definitely send troops to wipe out the rebel party again. You should give up your heart. Be good The mistress of the government of this country."

After finishing speaking, he ordered the maidservant standing beside him anxiously to say: "Clean up the yard, and the ancestral hall will be opened on the eighteenth day, so don't let outsiders see the joke." After he finished speaking, he took a deep look at Yin, and said: " Think about it carefully, if you think it through clearly, then tidy yourself up and manage the banquet like a housewife."

With a flick of his sleeves, he left without hesitation.

Yin Hongye looked at his resolute back and thought of his son whose situation was unknown. Her eyes were at first hopeless, and then she gradually became firm. She raised her hand to wipe her face, and said in a hoarse voice, "Get some water, I want to take a bath and change clothes."

***

On November [-]th, Duke Qi's mansion opened the ancestral hall early in the morning, and under the witness of the elders of the Ye family, Ye Boru was recorded in the genealogy,

Ye Boru was dressed in a dark red brocade of flowers and a black fox fur cloak. He was tall and tall, with a graceful demeanor. His appearance and charm were six to seven times like that of Ye Zhili who was beside him.The clan elders who were still a little worried about Ye Boru's life experience were also relieved, and greeted Ye Boru with smiles on their faces.

Just as Ye Boru came back, Ye Zhili led him to identify people one by one.

His expression is gentle, his attitude is humble and respectful without arrogance, and his words and deeds are very considerate, which makes the elders of the Ye family think highly of him again.Compared with the boss who was always taciturn, and the third son of the tyrant, this second son was more useful.

Although he is just a bastard, what does that matter, as long as he has the ability to support the Duke's mansion and take the Ye family to another level.The identity of this bastard is not so important.

After seeing the clansmen, Ye Zhili took him to meet the guests outside again, and on the way he instructed: "You follow me today, which guests you can get close to and which ones you should guard against, I will tell you one by one."

Ye Bo replied in a warm voice, and asked curiously, "What's the future of my brother today?" He hesitated and said, "Brother...do you have a grudge against me?"

"If he doesn't come, he won't come."

Speaking of Ye Yunting, Ye Zhili was a bit uncomfortable. After all, this eldest son is now completely out of his control, and he seems to have some friendship with Ye Wang. He was also worried that Ye Yunting would give Ye Wang a head, so he casually said: "You He is just like your younger brother, caring about your elder brother very much."

Ye Boru's eyes flashed, and he still spoke softly: "When my father taught me, he mentioned my elder brother a few times, and I have always been curious and admired. Now that I can finally see him, I can't help but feel a little bit emotional." Turning around, he said again: "Is the relationship between the elder brother and the younger brother very good?"

Ye Zhili didn't remember that he mentioned Ye Yunting to him, but it wasn't an important matter, so he didn't think too much about it, and said casually, "It's just that your brother shaved his head and got hot."

He didn't know why the always naughty third child suddenly got close to Ye Yunting, but he didn't say much about it because they couldn't get in the way.

While the two were talking, they had already arrived at the main entrance. It was not early at this time, and the guests arrived one after another.Every time a guest came, Ye Zhili brought Ye Boru up to chat with each other for a few words, and then welcomed them in.

When the guests were about to arrive, the servants sang: "King Yong'an, Princess Yong'an arrived—"

Ye Boru suddenly turned his head to look, and saw a tall, handsome young man pushing a wheelchair and walking slowly.
