Ye Xiaotian asked his servants to prepare lunch for them so that they could eat first.
After lunch, Ye Xiaotian took the two of them to the room to rest.
After Wei Wenyan fell asleep, Ye Xiaotian took Wei Cunqing out.
"Seventh Brother! Tell your uncle how you met Wen Yan? Did he suffer a lot along the way?" Ye Xiaotian asked.
He didn't dare ask Wei Wenyan just now, for fear of bringing back Wei Wenyan's memories.
Wei Wenyan is still a child, and he doesn't want Wei Wenyan's young heart to be hurt again.
"It was a coincidence that I was planning to come and look for my uncle, and on the way I happened to meet Wen Yan who was begging, so I took him with me.
It was one time when I heard Wen Yan talking in his sleep that I realized that he was the person I had been looking for.
"We arrived in Kyoto and came to see you, uncle! Tell me honestly, if you take Wen Yan in, will the court... blame you?" Wei Cunqing said a little nervously.
He didn't want to implicate Ye Xiaotian as a rebel!
But if Ye Xiaotian accepts Wei Wenyan, it would be equivalent to openly opposing His Majesty, and His Majesty will not easily forgive Ye Xiaotian.
His father was sensitive and suspicious, and he would never let go of any grudge. If he knew that Ye Xiaotian was harboring Wei Wenyan, he would definitely send troops to eliminate Ye Xiaotian.
Ye Xiaotian has worked diligently throughout his life and has always been stationed in Raozhou. If Ye Xiaotian had not been guarding Raozhou, Nanyuan would have invaded their Northern Han long ago.
He didn't want Ye Xiaotian to be charged with treason because of him and Wei Wenyan.
Ye Xiaotian disagreed, "I told you, even if you didn't come, the court would have already started targeting me! Your coming will only help your uncle!"
Now that Wei Wenyan is here, they have a legitimate reason to return to Kyoto.
Your Majesty values civil officials over military officials and is very strict with the military commanders in the court. However, because of him, the Crown Prince has always treated every military commander who defends the country well.
Among those military generals, many felt sorry and sad for the prince.
They need their help to return to Kyoto.
He was confident that he could get them to help Wei Wenyan return to Kyoto.
Although the generals are all rough men, they are very simple and will remember anyone who is good to them.
They are not as good as the civil officials in the court at manipulating people's hearts, but they will definitely find ways to repay Wei Cun'an for his kindness in recognizing their talents.
Wei Wenyan went all the way south without revealing his identity, perhaps they really helped him.
With the support of these generals, their return to Kyoto is just around the corner.
Wei Cunqing still had a frown on his face. Ye Xiaotian spoke lightly, but he knew that Ye Xiaotian was definitely pretending to be relaxed.
If Raozhou is abandoned by the imperial court, it will be attacked from all sides, and Ye Xiaotian will become a sinner of the people of Raozhou.
He doesn't want to implicate his uncle!
But he had no other choice, this was the only path he could choose!
He could only help Ye Xiaotian win at the lowest cost.
"Uncle, what should we do next? How do we get back to Kyoto?" Wei Cunqing asked.
Since they are going back to Kyoto, they should not delay too long to avoid any more trouble.
They rushed back to Kyoto at lightning speed, catching them off guard.
As long as they overthrow Prince Ying's power, they can force their father to clear their brother's name and force their father to deal with Concubine Yao and others.
But the premise is that they can win!
The imperial court is quite powerful, and King Ying's influence is also quite strong. If they want to win, they will probably have to work hard.
"Let Wen Yan have a good rest for a few days, and we will think of a solution." Ye Xiaotian had no better idea now.
He first tried to contact several generals who he thought would support Wei Wenyan. If they agreed to help Wei Wenyan return to Kyoto and help them eliminate King Ying's forces, then they would be able to rest easy.
But... they may not be willing.
This is a capital crime, they can only succeed and are not allowed to fail.
If they succeed, they will be heroes who clear the court of evil, and if they fail, they will be rebels. What good end will there be for rebels?
What awaited them was the execution of their entire families. Those generals had their own relatives, and there was no need for them to take such a big risk for Wei Wenyan.
So, the chances are still slim.
Wei Cunqing could only follow Ye Xiaotian's arrangements.
As the two were talking, a girl of about seventeen or eighteen ran in.
"Dad! Is my cousin here? Where is my cousin?" The person who spoke was Ye Xiaotian's youngest daughter, Ye Xiao.
When she saw Wei Cunqing in the room, she immediately put away her bright smile and looked at Wei Cunqing shyly.
"My cousin is here too! Xiaoxiao pays her respects to my cousin!" Ye Xiaoxiao bowed.
Wei Cunqing nodded in response, "You're welcome, cousin. It's been a long time since we last met. How are you?"
Ye Xiao pursed her lips and smiled: "Everything is fine! Cousin, you..."
Ye Xiao suddenly thought of something and her smile completely disappeared.
My aunt and cousin died tragically, and my cousin must be very sad. But she is so excited. Isn't this just rubbing salt into my cousin's wounds?
But she was so excited that she couldn't control herself for a moment.
She was just happy to see her cousin. She was also very sad and upset about what happened to her aunt and eldest cousin.
Before she was ten years old, she had always been with her aunt, who was very important to her. When she learned that her aunt had committed suicide by drinking poison, she cried for several days.
She didn't mean to provoke her cousin.
"Cousin, I'm sorry. I... I was very sad when I heard about what happened between my aunt and my eldest cousin." Ye Xiao explained.
Wei Cunqing shook his head gently. "Let's not talk about the past. Mother and brother both hope that we can live happily."
Whether Ye Xiao is sad or calm, it has no effect on the ending.
He also didn't want everyone to be depressed because of this matter. It would be better for everyone to live happily. The dead are gone, and Ye Xiao didn't need to explain so much.
Ye Xiaotian looked at his precious daughter with a look of self-blame, and he felt distressed. Others did not understand Ye Xiao, but he, as a father, understood her best.
Ye Xiao is kind-hearted and has a deep relationship with Ye Yingying. When the news of Ye Yingying's death came, Ye Xiao cried for a long time.
This girl has been thinking about Wei Cunqing all the time. Now that Wei Cunqing is here, she is naturally happy. Too happy, isn't that what it means?
"You two haven't seen each other for a long time. You two should catch up on the past. Dad won't keep you any longer." Ye Xiaotian tactfully let them have a good chat.
He went to arrange the security of the palace. Now that Wei Wenyan had arrived at the palace, the number of guards needed to be tripled to prevent thieves from coming in and harming Wei Wenyan.
My younger sister is gone, but he will definitely help me protect the bloodline she left behind!
After Ye Xiaotian left, Ye Xiao walked up to Wei Cunqing and said, "Cousin, the last time we met was four years ago! Why didn't you come to see me for so long?"
