Chapter 141 Five Days
"Sir, Princess Rouan came here just now."
As soon as she entered the room, Yuan'er reported immediately: "I didn't know when you would come back, so I told her the truth."
"The princess asked me to give this to you and then go back."
"Okay, I understand."
Wei Changtian casually took a small wooden box and judged from its weight that the things inside were very light, probably something like a sachet or handkerchief.
When I went back to the house and opened it, sure enough, it was a sachet with a white background and gold patterns, and two small words embroidered on it - peace.
The meaning of a woman giving a man a sachet is self-evident, but Wei Changtian was wondering why Ning Yuke suddenly became so "open-minded".
It doesn't fit her usual personality.
Wei Changtian couldn’t quite figure it out and was too lazy to think about it anymore.
He casually took the sachet out of the wooden box, and then found a letter under the sachet.
Love letter? He curled his lips, opened the letter and read it quickly.
"Hmm? This..."
After a while, Wei Changtian gently put the letter down, his expression changed slightly.
But I didn't feel touched, but rather a little thoughtful.
Ning Yuke's letter was not long. In addition to the affection between the lines, it also talked about one thing.
She is leaving.
Together with Ning Yuzhu and Ning Yuling, I went to visit their fifth uncle, who was another of the four princes of Daning - Prince Jian of Liangzhou.
Liangzhou is the northernmost state of Daning. It takes at least one month to get there from Shuzhou, plus you have to stay there for some time. By the time you return, it will probably be early spring next year.
Ning Yuke said she didn't know why her father suddenly asked the three sisters to visit this uncle whom they hadn't seen for a long time, but Wei Changtian knew the reason.
It seems that Ning Qingyu also knew some news that was unfavorable to him.
There's nothing strange about this.
After all, he himself had obtained clues from three people that Ning Yongnian was going to take action again. Even if Ning Qingyu's source of information was not as good as his, he probably had channels to find out some news.
He knew he couldn't leave, so he wanted to send his three daughters away.
But in fact, in Wei Changtian's opinion, unless Ning Yongnian is mentally ill or suddenly has a sudden change of heart, none of Ning Yuke and the others can leave.
I have to say, this Prince Shun is even more stupid than I thought. Wei Changtian curled his lips and stopped thinking about the "fratricide" between Ning Qingyu and Ning Yongnian, but continued to think about his own affairs.
In the letter, Ning Yuke said that she would leave the city for Liangzhou in ten days, and asked Wei Changtian when he would let her go to get that thing.
According to her, if Wei Changtian had not made arrangements yet, he could only wait for her to come back from Liangzhou to fulfill his promise. Little did she know , silly girl, you might never come back once you leave.
Wei Changtian sighed in his heart and decided on the time.
Five days.
Five days later, let Ning Yuke go into the cave to get the treasure.
If successful, both of them would be even. As for whether Ning Yuke lives or dies in the future, it would have nothing to do with him.
If it fails, Ning Yuke is aware of the risks since he has already told her in advance.
Besides, I saved their family by accident last time, so I don’t owe her anything.
Thinking of this, Wei Changtian suddenly discovered something——
It seemed that Ning Yuke would die no matter what.
To be honest, Wei Changtian actually felt a little sorry for Ning Yuke.
She didn't do anything wrong, but she ended up like this.
There are at most two people in Shuzhou City who can save her life.
One is myself, and the other is Liang Zhen.
Apart from that, I’m afraid even Xiao Feng wouldn’t be able to do it, let alone Shao Ying’an and others who are already in a difficult situation.
Liang Zhen certainly wouldn't be so idle as to do such a thing, so as for himself, forget it.
It has nothing to do with his own "villain" character, it's just a simple trade-off of interests.
He shook his head and looked out the window.
Yuan'er and Li Suyue were hanging out clothes. They were both very skillful and soon had hung up several basins of clothes. There seemed to be a faint fragrance of soapberries in the air.
Forget it, I can’t always think about depressing things.
Wei Changtian suddenly stood up and walked to the door and shouted, "Madam Li, if you are not busy, please come in. I have something to discuss with you."
"Yuan'er, make tea!"
After an incense stick of time, Yuan'er made tea, poured a cup for each of them, and then obediently left the room.
Looking at the clear and transparent tea in the cup, Li Suyue knew that Wei Changtian must have something important to discuss with her.
"Master Wei, what can I do for you?"
"Haha, it's not really an order."
Wei Changtian took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "I wonder what Madam thinks of Zhang San?"
"ah?"
Li Suyue didn't expect Wei Changtian to ask her this, but she vaguely guessed something and couldn't help but lower her head.
"Brother Zhang is a very nice person."
"What else?"
“Also, there’s more.”
Li Suyue didn't know what to say. After Wei Changtian waited for a while, he was too lazy to beat around the bush and said directly:
"Ma'am, I'll just say it straight."
"Brother Wang has been gone for more than three years. It is not easy for you to raise Ran'er by yourself. Now that the period of widowhood has passed, I would like to ask, have you ever thought about remarrying?"
“This, this.”
Although Li Suyue was once a wife and even had children.
But after all, she was a woman in a feudal society, so she naturally felt a little embarrassed when she heard this topic.
"Sir, I really haven't thought about this."
"What do you think now, madam?"
Wei Changtian smiled and said, "Zhang San has been with me for many years. He is definitely a good man who values friendship and loyalty."
"He didn't have time to get married and have children before, but as his master, I couldn't bear to see him live out his life alone, so I wanted to help him find a partner."
"What do you think, Madam?"
“.”
Wei Changtian's words were very direct, and Li Suyue knew that as long as she nodded, the rest of her and her son's life would basically be settled.
Li Suyue was not a heartless woman. Sometimes she would secretly wipe away tears when she thought of her poor late husband. But she was also just an ordinary woman, not a heroic woman who would rather die than serve two husbands.
After all, it is really difficult for a weak woman with a child to survive in a feudal society.
What's more, after spending the past few days together, Li Suyue also truly felt that Zhang San was a good person.
He doesn't talk much, but he is very efficient in doing things, takes good care of himself, and follows a good master like Wei Changtian.
The only thing is, "Master Wei, can you let me think about this matter again?"
Li Suyue raised her head with a struggling expression.
"sure."
Wei Changtian nodded, and after seeing her expression, he suddenly asked another question.
"Madam, are you worried about Zhang San, who is also a cultivator, and afraid that one day he will repeat the mistakes of Brother Wang?"
“.”
Li Suyue was a little surprised that Wei Changtian could guess what she was thinking. After a long silence, she answered softly.
"yes"
"Haha, ma'am, you are worrying too much."
Wei Changtian asked with a smile: "Madam, what do you think of my identity?"
"this."
Li Suyue was stunned for a moment.
She was just a widow who seldom went out before, and she was not aware of Wei Changtian's "glorious deeds", so she never knew Wei Changtian's true identity.
However, Li Suyue knew that the people in Xuanjing Division were very polite to Wei Changtian, and Liang Qin, the daughter of the general, who ran here all day and called him "Brother Changtian" all the time, "I don't know, but I guess that the young master must be a noble and prominent person."
"Well, ma'am, your guess is not wrong."
Wei Changtian nodded and smiled, "And Zhang San is one of my most valued subordinates. I wonder if Madam understands what I mean?"
"I understand."
Li Suyue was slightly stunned, and she had the answer to the question of whether to remarry in her mind.
However, due to her woman's dignity, she was too embarrassed to agree directly. After chatting with Wei Changtian for a few more words, she lowered her head and walked quickly out of the house.
"Eh? Sister Su Yue, why is your face so red?"
Yuan'er immediately came over curiously, her face full of curiosity.
"I, I"
Li Suyue was a little embarrassed to speak up, but she felt that she would have to hide it sooner or later, so she spoke hesitantly.
The evening breeze blew the skirts of the two girls, and the clothes hanging on the wooden rack also swayed slightly.
Wei Changtian watched this scene through the window, and suddenly an idea popped into his mind.
Yuan'er and Li Suyue were a maid and a widow respectively.
But at this moment, she is much happier than Princess Ning Yuke.
