Hearing this, Wei Cunqing gave Ye Xiao a grateful look.
He originally thought that Ye Xiao would definitely continue to act unreasonably, but he didn't expect that she would actually come out and help him out.
Wei Cunqing's face was filled with gratitude. "Cousin! Thank you for your understanding."
Ye Xiao glanced at him and raised her head proudly, "I'm not doing this just for you, cousin! I'm doing this for myself too!"
She still believed that Wei Cunqing had her in his heart, otherwise Wei Cunqing would not break up with his father because of this matter.
He could have agreed to his father's request, married her, and then tortured her slowly, but the cousin did not do so. He still treated her as his sister.
Since her cousin couldn't bear to hurt her, she couldn't bear to see her cousin in trouble.
What's more, my cousin now has no one to rely on except them.
She didn't want to see her cousin and father break up because of her!
Dad and cousin are both people who want to do great things, and they shouldn't be delayed because of her.
Ye Xiao walked up to Ye Xiaotian and said, "Daddy! Please don't make things difficult for my cousin! It's not like my daughter can't get married! Why force a man who doesn't love me to marry me?"
If she wanted to get married, it would be easy, and she didn't want to force Wei Cunqing.
Wei Cunqing didn't want to marry her and didn't like her. He was blind! She would definitely marry a man who was no worse than Wei Cunqing!
Hearing this, Ye Xiaotian patted Ye Xiao's shoulder and said, "Okay! Daddy will listen to Xiaoxiao. If Xiaoxiao says she won't marry, then she won't marry! Old Seven is blind, Daddy will definitely find a better man for you."
Since Ye Xiao was unwilling to marry Wei Cunqing, he would not force them.
Everything is based on Ye Xiao's wishes. If Ye Xiao is not happy, then forget it.
Ye Xiao leaned towards Ye Xiaotian with a happy look on her face, "Daddy! You are so good to Xiaoxiao!"
With her father doting on her, she is not afraid of not being able to marry a good man.
It’s his loss that his cousin doesn’t want to marry her!
Ye Xiaotian encouraged Ye Xiao with a few words and then went out to do some work.
As soon as Ye Xiaotian left, only Wei Cunqing and Ye Xiao were left standing there.
Wei Cunqing's face was filled with gratitude: "Cousin! Thank you!"
He was really grateful that Ye Xiao showed up in time, otherwise, there would be no way to resolve the situation between him and his uncle.
He was extremely reluctant to break up with his uncle. His mother and brother were gone, and in this world, he only had two relatives: his uncle and Wei Wenyan.
He doesn't want to lose them!
Especially at this time, they should work together instead of losing their composure and starting internal strife.
Ye Xiao rolled her eyes at him, "Cousin, you don't have to thank me! If you don't like me, I won't like you anymore!"
Ye Xiao looked at Wei Cunqing angrily.
She, Ye Xiao, is not an unwanted girl!
She didn't like Wei Cunqing who didn't have her in his heart.
Wei Cunqing pursed his lips and smiled, "As long as my cousin is happy, I hope that she can be safe, happy and worry-free no matter what."
Ye Xiao was too lazy to argue with him, "Are you satisfied now, cousin? As long as you are satisfied! I'm going back first."
She didn't want to see Wei Cunqing! In the short term, she didn't want to see Wei Cunqing again.
Ye Xiao left angrily, leaving Wei Cunqing standing there in a daze.
Wei Cunqing breathed a sigh of relief. The matter finally ended without any danger.
As long as my cousin doesn't insist, this matter will not continue, and my uncle will still stand with them in agreement.
They have to find a way to return to Kyoto.
Not long after, Ye Xiaotian came back from outside.
Wei Cunqing has been waiting for Ye Xiaotian. He also wants to discuss with Ye Xiaotian how to return to Kyoto.
Seeing that Wei Cunqing was still waiting for him, Ye Xiaotian felt a little helpless.
He is indeed very angry these days!
He was angry that Wei Cunqing dared to despise his Xiaoxiao!
His daughter has been the apple of his eye since she was born. From childhood to adulthood, Ye Xiao has never suffered any grievances.
He couldn't even bear to scold Ye Xiao, so why could Wei Cunqing despise Ye Xiao?
Since Wei Cunqing dared to despise his daughter, he would certainly not forgive him!
But Xiaoxiao said today that she didn't want to marry Wei Cunqing.
Wei Cunqing was completely hopeless.
Her daughter deserves a better man, Wei Cunqing is not worthy of Ye Xiao!
"Since you are here too, come in with me." Ye Xiaotian said.
The two of them entered the study together, and Ye Xiaotian went straight to the point. The matter between Wei Cunqing and Ye Xiao was over, and he would never mention it again.
"News has arrived from Kyoto that His Majesty is seriously ill, and Concubine Yao is now the regent! Everyone in the court is dissatisfied with Concubine Yao's meddling in government.
However, Concubine Yao had the support of Wei Shuo, and the ministers dared to be angry but not speak out. Those who spoke frankly and gave advice were either imprisoned or dismissed from office.
No one in the court dared to say anything. The first thing Concubine Yao did as regent was to send troops to destroy this prince. "Ye Xiaotian said it calmly, and at the end he couldn't help laughing.
Concubine Yao actually sent troops to wipe them out. They had not yet gone to Kyoto to settle accounts with Concubine Yao and Wei Shuo, but they came to their door on their own initiative.
Raozhou City is strong and easy to defend but difficult to attack. All his Ye family soldiers are veterans of battle. Their granaries are enough for them to eat for two to three years. The people in the city can be self-sufficient. Concubine Yao sent people to attack them, which is simply courting death!
"Uncle! How can you still laugh when disaster is imminent?" Wei Cunqing was a little confused.
The imperial court is about to send troops to eliminate him, but why does he seem so happy?
"Of course I am happy! Concubine Yao is just a woman in the harem, but she actually wants to be the regent. God will help us, and we will win this battle!" Ye Xiaotian was full of confidence.
The old emperor fell ill, and their chance came.
How many people in the court, especially the military generals, obeyed Concubine Yao?
At that time, he could just raise his arm and call for help, and with one call a hundred would respond, and it would not be difficult for him to reach Kyoto directly.
What's more, Concubine Yao has been the emperor's favorite for many years, and the Yao family has committed many evil things. Some of them are enemies who want the Yao family to fall. These people are all targets that they can win over.
He has sent people to contact Qi Luo, the King of Zhenbei in Yinzhou. The King of Zhenbei has a feud with the Yao family, and Qi Luo will be happy to help him.
At that time, the two of them will attack Kyoto City from the south and the north!
To go to Kyoto, they had to pass through Luzhou, which had 300,000 soldiers. If they fought with Jiang He, he would have no chance of winning.
But Qi Luo went all the way south from Yinzhou to Kyoto without any obstruction. Once Qi Luo controlled Kyoto City, Jiang He would have to send troops to rescue the safety of Kyoto City. They could then take the opportunity to pursue him and kill him directly at the gates of Kyoto City.
Moreover, there are many generals who were his former soldiers. Even if they are unwilling to help him, they will not try to stop him.
The odds are stacked against them!
What's more, there are many people in the court who are close to the prince. They are already full of guilt for not being able to save the prince. Now that they see the prince of the Eastern Palace returning to Kyoto, they will naturally try their best to support Wei Wenyan.
Their return to Kyoto is what everyone is looking forward to. Starting from today, they have to prepare enough food and supplies, and after the New Year is over, they will set off for Kyoto!
