Chapter 333 Love is not important
Ji Ping tutted his words twice: "This is really looking for an opportunity to use public power for personal gain. Your Excellency knows this but turns a blind eye. Your Excellency is really biased."
Wei Dong could be considered as abandoning his post, but who made him marry Lu Chenyang's most beloved maid?
Wei Dong only had Zhao Xi in his eyes, staring at her without blinking: "Are you very tired? You look thinner." As he spoke, he remembered something and stuffed a paper bag into her hand: "This is a new meat jerky shop that opened in Huai'an City, you can try it."
Zhao Xi took it with a hint of joy on his face.
"You've come at the right time. Come, I'll take you to meet the lady." Zhao Xi said.
Weidong nodded and let her pull him.
Wang was making medicine. When she saw Zhao Xi coming in with a man, she smiled.
"You are Weidong, right?" Wang asked gently, "I always hear Zhaoxi mention you. You are indeed a handsome boy."
Weidong bowed to Wang and said, "Thank you, Madam, for taking care of Zhaoxi."
His tone was full of protection and favoritism for Zhaoxi, and Wang was extremely pleased, as if she was looking after her son-in-law.
The three of them sat together and talked about Zhaoxi's childhood, and Weidong listened very carefully.
"Zhaoxi has been a good child since she was little, well-behaved and obedient." Wang said, "She is so well-behaved that I don't know how to love her."
Zhao Xi puffed out his chest proudly.
If someone else heard this, they probably wouldn't believe it. Zhao Xi is obedient? This doesn't seem true.
Zhao Xi said, "I also got into trouble when I was a child."
"That was all brought up by... Chenyang. They have been together since they were young, and they bullied others a lot." Wang looked helpless.
Lu Xueyin had never been a quiet person since she was little, especially after she started learning martial arts. Zhao Xi was the one who obeyed Lu Xueyin in everything. Whenever Lu Xueyin did something bad, Zhao Xi would be the one to spread the word. No matter what Lu Xueyin did, Zhao Xi would follow her and support her completely, regardless of whether she was right or wrong.
Zhao Xi couldn't help but say, "Your Excellency has your reasons. You never bully innocent people. Those people deserve it."
Wang even gave Wei Dong a helpless smile.
Wei Dong said, "Zhao Xi is not someone who cannot distinguish right from wrong, and Your Excellency is even more perceptive. If they said so, they must have a reason."
Wang looked at Weidong with more satisfaction, "He is indeed a good child. Zhaoxi is indeed blessed."
Wei Dong glanced at Zhao Xi with affection and said gently, "Madam, I am fortunate to have married Zhao Xi." His expression was solemn. "I am alone, without any possessions, and without any special qualities. All my glory comes from you, my Lord. But she is a kind and compassionate woman, who has saved countless lives and is truly loyal and brave. I am fortunate that she does not despise me and is willing to marry me."
Wang looked at him with even greater satisfaction.
How satisfied was Wang with Weidong? In the evening, Wang went to see Lu Chenyang and was still talking about this.
"I was a little dissatisfied with Zhaoxi's husband. I felt that he came from a humble background and was not worthy of our Zhaoxi," Wang said. "After meeting him today, I can see that he cares deeply about Zhaoxi. The things he brought, dried meat, candied fruits, and snacks, were all packed with Zhaoxi's favorite foods."
Lu Chenyang teased her, "You're bribed by just this little thing?"
Wang shook her head. "You can tell whether someone is sincere or not. Some people always think they can't see through falsehood, but the truth is, sincerity cannot be hidden. Some hidden details and subconscious reactions cannot be faked."
Weidong was sincere, perhaps even unaware of it himself. Whenever Zhaoxi was around, his eyes were always on her. He smiled with her, his whole heart on her. That look couldn't be faked.
Wang looked at Lu Chenyang and sighed, "Zhao Xi has found a good home, but I don't know if you..."
Wang Shi began to worry when she thought of her daughter's current status. What kind of man could be worthy of her daughter? If it was an ordinary man, he would naturally not be able to suppress her daughter. But her daughter was so outstanding, why would she marry a mediocre man?
But if you want to find someone who is as capable as her, there are not many in the world.
This is a sweet burden.
Wang suddenly asked, "I heard that the prince of the Zhenguo Duke has some feelings for you. Is there any possibility between you two?"
This must have been what Zhao Xi said. After Zhao Xi came home, Wang Shi felt very sorry for her and thought that the little girl had been wronged. Wang Shi was like her own mother to Zhao Xi, and she would not hide anything from her.
Lu Chenyang felt helpless. He was wondering why he was in such a difficult situation even though he was in power now.
Lu Chenyang thought for a moment and said, "There are so many things between him and me. My current power and his position mean there are too many obstacles between us."
And any of those things is more important than love.
Especially after Lu Chenyang became disappointed with the Crown Prince, a battle between him and Yan Xing was inevitable. From the moment he made up his mind to overthrow the dynasty, there was no possibility for him and Yan Xing to fight.
Before he made this decision, he didn't even think about Yan Xing; he just made this decision.
The identities between them destined that love was not the most important thing.
Wang sighed softly: "You officials think too much."
Lu Chenyang smiled and said, "Mom, I'm doing fine now, aren't I? I have power in my hands, so why do I have to get married and have children?"
Wang said, "I don't understand any profound principles. I just think that since ancient times, the harmony of yin and yang has ensured the continuation of the family line. I know I can't control you, but I still can't help but nag you." She stroked Lu Chenyang's hair and said, "Sometimes I feel dazed that I gave birth to such an outstanding and amazing child. So I always think about making your life more complete."
She knew that she was not knowledgeable enough and did not understand the big principles, but according to her long-held belief, she hoped that her daughter could do what she wanted and have someone love and protect her.
She always felt that she worked too hard.
What she did might not be right, but she loved her daughter clumsily and carefully.
Lu Chenyang couldn't help but lean on her shoulder and said, "I'm so great because my mother is so great. That's why I gave birth to such a great daughter."
He has very good parents. They are open-minded and tolerant, and they give Lu Xueyin the greatest degree of freedom.
So Lu Xueyin was able to study, practice martial arts, and travel around the country disguised as a man since she was a child. Lu Xueyin didn't grow up like this on her own, but because she had good people to teach her.
It was Wang who taught her kindness and responsibility, and it was Lu's father who taught her courage and decisiveness. Their combined influence made Lu Xueyin what she is today.
Wang couldn't stop smiling: "You just know how to coax me."
Lu Chenyang coaxed his mother and spent some time with her before going back to rest.
