Chapter 51 Chapter 51 The world's capable people get it, why should I...
This is a long story, but it’s not much to say.
Xie Yi drove all the servants out and told his life story in detail.
Yun Wu was so shocked she stopped crying when she heard him say he wasn't the Xie family's biological child, but rather the son of the former crown prince. Then, after hearing how he concealed his identity and feigned illness to avoid the world, Yun Wu was speechless for a long time.
She clutched Xie Yi's clothes tightly and said in panic, "What are you going to do now..."
"Now I have overturned the verdict for my biological father and cleared all the injustice. No one will arrest me anymore. I still conceal my identity just to get some peace and quiet." Xie Yi comforted him.
Yun Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
Her heart trembled, but she understood Lord Xie's good intentions. Everyone knew that Third Young Master Xie was in poor health, so even if Xie Yi stayed indoors and never made friends, there was a reason to explain his various irregularities. He used illness as a cover-up for his talents, so that even if there were rumors outside, they would not be associated with this "sickly person".
Yun Wu hesitated: "Since your illness is fake, then what about the wedding..."
Xie Yi kissed her forehead. "This is true. Master Huizhen read my fortune and said that my chances of success would depend on someone born on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. That person is you, my lady. I said our marriage was destined by heaven, and I absolutely cannot lie."
Yun Wu was puzzled: "What's the turning point?"
Xie Yi stroked her long hair and did not answer.
He was reborn, back to a time before everything happened, but he was depressed by the failures of his previous life. His family couldn't bear it, so they asked Master Huizhen to tell his fortune.
At that time, he scoffed at it, and never thought that there would be someone to accompany him, and that he would be so moved by her and cheer up again.
Yun Wu quickly recalled: "On the night of our wedding, you had someone carry you in..."
Xie Yi: “…”
Yun Wu looked over with her almond-shaped eyes, "I was so frightened at that time, I thought you really were going to die soon. It turns out you were scaring me on purpose!"
There was a hint of resentment in her voice as she spoke.
At that time, she was forced to get into the bridal sedan to celebrate her wedding, and she was in a state of panic. Suddenly, she felt that the road ahead was bleak and she was isolated and helpless. Even though her life got better day by day, she could not forget the panic she felt at that time.
Xie Yi found it difficult to refute, so he could only touch his nose and said awkwardly, "This is indeed my fault. I wasn't satisfied with this marriage in the first place."
What destiny, what fate? Even though he has been reborn, he still disdains it.
I married her, but if I didn't have any complaints, I would just want to play a trick on her.
Both of them were forced into the bridal sedan, but unexpectedly they actually fell in love with each other.
"Now that I think about it, I should thank Master Huizhen." Xie Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "He is really capable."
Yun Wu whispered, "Master Huizhen is already a great monk..."
"Oh right." Yun Wu stood up again, and a look of shock appeared on her face as she remembered something: "Then Zhou Qing..."
Xie Yi said truthfully: "He knows my identity and works for me."
"You've been going out a lot lately, always with him. Could it be..."
Yun Wu carefully swallowed the rest of the words back into her stomach.
Xie Yi is the son of the former crown prince, a member of a royal family with a distinguished status. Previously, he used this identity to help overturn the former crown prince's case, and then never mentioned it again. Now, he is using this identity to act again. Could it be that...
Xie Yi did not hide it from her, with an arrogant look on his face, and nodded in agreement: "Yes, I plan to restore my identity."
Yun Wu: “!!!”
Yun Wu was stunned.
She stared at Xie Yi blankly, her almond-shaped eyes wide open, as if she was meeting him for the first time. Xie Yi saw her silly look and thought she was a little cute. He was about to kiss her again when suddenly, another drop of crystal fell under his gaze.
Xie Yi was in a panic.
"Why are you crying again?!" He hurriedly wiped her tears, his hands wet. "I've told you everything. I'm not hiding anything from you anymore. Why are you still crying?!"
Yun Wu turned her head away, avoiding his movements, tears streaming down her face: "You didn't say anything, you hid everything from me..."
"I was planning to tell you!"
"when?"
"I..." Xie Yi was speechless.
Yun Wu lowered her eyes and sobbed softly, "...Are you planning to abandon me when your identity is restored..."
"Impossible!" Xie Yi cupped her cheeks and wiped away her tears with his fingertips. He stared at her with his phoenix eyes and said fiercely, "Don't even think about this kind of thing. Even if I die again, we must be buried in the same grave together."
“…”
Yun Wu thought to herself that she didn't want to die.
"I just couldn't find the right opportunity to tell you." Xie Yi nuzzled her cheek and said affectionately, "I not only want to regain my identity, but also to fight for a future for us. If things don't work out, I'm afraid your joy will be in vain."
Hearing the implication of his words, Yun Wu was stunned again.
What she heard today was far beyond her imagination.
What's more, her husband spoke so arrogantly and had such lofty ambitions.
How could a woman like her, who never left her house, come up with this? She looked at her husband anxiously, tears hanging on her eyelashes, and she was about to fall: "Do you have to... do you have to...?"
Even if Xie Yi restored his true identity, he could still be made a prince. Why did he have to fight for that position?
Xie Yi raised his eyebrows and said proudly, "In this world, those who are capable will get it. Why should I be inferior to others?"
“…”
…
The sickly husband she married suddenly turned into a prince, and he was fighting for power.
Yun Wu had been having chaotic dreams for several days. After waking up, she couldn't even remember what she had dreamed about, only the fear remained.
She didn't sleep well for several days, but gradually accepted it.
Xie Yi's identity was innate and it was beyond her ability to change.
People are born with ambition. If Xie Yi wants to be a real dragon, she cannot force him to be imprisoned in the shallows.
No matter how her world turns upside down, she still has to look forward and make plans for the future.
Xie Yi still went out from time to time to do business as usual. Yun Wu didn't notice it at first, but now she paid close attention and sent people to inquire. Sure enough, she discovered that some rumors about the former prince had begun to emerge in the capital.
Ever since the former crown prince's case was overturned, rumors have been circulating that he left behind a posthumous child. Initially, these rumors were mere speculation, and no one took them seriously. Unexpectedly, these rumors have intensified in recent days, as if such a person actually existed.
After hearing these rumors again, Yun Wu felt very uncomfortable.
I used to think of myself as an outsider, just hearing about it and not taking it seriously. Who would have thought that the protagonist of this rumor is actually the person I sleep with?!
Whenever Yun Wu heard anything about the former crown prince, he would pay close attention and keep it in mind.
At the same time, she also took the initiative to take on tasks for herself.
She usually just read books, embroidered, and occasionally played with birds and petted horses in the small courtyard, enjoying herself. Now she dug out the account books in the third courtyard and sorted them out, then went to find Meng Qingtong again, wanting to help her.
Meng Qingtong was busy with the trivial matters of the New Year inside and outside the mansion. When she heard her anxiously ask if she could help, she readily assigned the tasks to her.
"Awu, it's really a great help that you are willing to help me!" said Meng Qingtong.
Yun Wu also came to learn from her.
The New Year is approaching, and interpersonal relationships are very particular. It not only depends on the relationship between each mansion and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, but also on the degree of importance each mansion holds in front of the emperor. It is necessary to strike a balance and not be too attentive and lower the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, nor be too indifferent and make the Duke of Zhenguo seem unkind.
Before a young woman gets married, her mother will bring her to her side to teach her about social life, sharing her years of experience with her. Madam Yun paid more attention to Yun Hui than Yun Wu.
There were many things that her elders had never taught her, so she had to figure them out on her own. Meng Qingtong was a lady from a wealthy family, so she knew more and taught her more.
Yun Wu studied hard.
Xie Yi's ambition is too big to be known to outsiders for now. Yun Wu is keeping it a secret for him, but she cannot wait with peace of mind.
Husband and wife are one, if one person strides forward, the other must keep up. She didn't want to be a burden to Xie Yi, nor did she want to wait in vain without achieving anything.
But after knowing the truth, there was one thing Yun Wu had to face.
Sooner or later, Xie Yi will have to restore his true identity and take back everything he had as the orphan of the prince.
By then, there will no longer be such a person as Third Young Master Xie.
