Chapter 2427 Two days later, I will give you a status
Xue Yun didn't say anything, just sat there blankly.
He looked at his mother with a cold body, as if he was looking at a stranger.
After a while, she said in a trembling voice that even she herself felt was unfamiliar: "Mom, you, do you know what you are saying?"
Wei said coldly: "What's wrong?"
"That, that's a human life."
“…”
"Have you already planned to kill all those noble ladies who married me?"
Wei said, "Only by killing them can we preserve this family business!"
"Family business...family business...family business!"
Xue Yun said a little manically: "All you think about every day is your family business. No matter how big your family business is, can it be compared to human lives? Those are human lives, fresh lives, and they are even just like me!"
“…”
"How can you say it's so easy? Killing them is like plucking a flower."
“…”
"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, but what about killing a life?"
“…”
"That's hell!"
When Wei saw her daughter scolding her like this, she became angry.
She slammed her hand on the table and said solemnly, "Go to hell! Do you think I am willing to do all this? If you were a son, would I need to do things that would send me to hell?"
“…”
Xue Yun felt a lump in his throat.
She looked at her mother sadly, smiled bitterly and said, "After all, it's because I'm not a son."
“…”
"That's why we can't keep this family business. It's all my fault."
“…”
"But for all these years, haven't I been doing what a son should do? I've been protecting the Xue family and studying medicine with more dedication than any of my uncles and aunts. My medical skills are superior to theirs. But why can't I inherit the family business?"
“…”
"Do I still need to cheat, even marry, or even kill my wife, to preserve all this?"
“…”
"I'm a doctor, I should save people!"
“Help, help!”
Wei looked at her daughter's excitement, but even that excitement couldn't melt the ice in her eyes. She just said, "If you can't save yourself and this family business, it's useless to save more people!"
Xue Yun's throat choked.
Wei said coldly, "Don't bother talking anymore. I won't change my mind."
“…”
"Leave with me tomorrow morning!"
"I--"
Xue Yun wanted to say something, but his throat was choked.
At this moment, Yun Xiang outside suddenly knocked on the door and called out, "Master, Madam."
Wei frowned: "What's wrong?"
Yun Xiang said, "The emperor has sent someone."
"Um?"
Wei didn't understand what was said and was stunned. Xue Yun, who was wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, was also shocked when he heard this.
The emperor sent someone?
Zhu Feng sent someone to her house?
Although she had been working at the Imperial Hospital for some time, no one had ever come to the palace. Moreover, she had just mentioned her resignation to the emperor, which had angered him greatly. Why would he suddenly send someone here at this moment?
Wei still didn't understand something, so she turned to look at her: "What did Yun Xiang say? Your Majesty?"
She only knew that her daughter came here to travel with people from Yan Country, but she didn't know the true identities of those people, so she was stunned when she heard it for the first time.
Xue Yun was also a little flustered.
He quickly lowered his voice and said, "Mother, please don't talk nonsense, just bow."
After saying that, he walked over and opened the door.
An old eunuch in luxurious clothes walked in from outside, followed by two young eunuchs. That was Eunuch Tu, who was responsible for passing messages beside the emperor.
Xue Yun had known him for a long time.
He hurried over and bowed, "Eunuch Tu."
"Master Xue, excuse me for disturbing you."
Eunuch Tu bowed with a smile, then turned around and saw a gorgeously dressed noblewoman standing beside him. He was slightly startled: "Who is this——"
Xue Yun said: "This is my mother."
"Oh? Is it the old lady?"
Eunuch Tu smiled and stepped forward to pay his respects: "Greetings, old lady."
“…”
Wei was still a little confused, but she still bowed to Eunuch Tu.
She had lived in Bailong City, and had been living in poverty for most of her life. When she arrived in Yan Country, although she knew that there was an emperor here, she could never have imagined that her daughter was related to the emperor of Yan Country.
Besides, what did this person just call her? Sir?
Is she still an official here?
Although Wei was full of doubts, she had been the head of the family for so many years after all, so she remained calm and looked at them calmly.
Xue Yun asked, "I wonder if Eunuch Tu has come so late. Is there something important?"
Eunuch Tu turned to look at her with a smile, but did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked her up and down with a smile. His eyes were full of deep meaning, which made Xue Yun feel uneasy.
She forced a smile and said, "Eunuch Tu?"
Eunuch Tu smiled and said, "Master Xue, speaking of this matter, I have something to say to you. We have known each other for quite some time. How could you have kept such an important matter hidden from me?"
"Hidden from you?"
Xue Yun was even more confused and asked doubtfully, "What's going on?"
Eunuch Tu laughed heartily and then said, "Master Xue, we are here tonight to congratulate you. The Emperor has ordered that Master Xue not go anywhere and must enter the palace the day after tomorrow. The Emperor will grant you a title."
"……What?!"
Xue Yun couldn't believe his ears.
Wei on the side also opened his eyes wide.
Status? !
These two words, like a huge rock thrown into a tranquil lake, completely exploded the silent night.
Xue Yun froze there for a long time before he spoke incoherently, "What, what do you mean?"
“…”
"What title?"
“…”
"I, I don't understand."
Eunuch Tu said with a smile: "As for what I said, I have already brought it here. As for whether Lord Xue understands it or not, he will understand everything when he meets the emperor."
Having said that, he bowed to her and turned away.
Xue Yun stood in the middle of the room, staring blankly at Eunuch Tu's back as he walked away and disappeared into the night.
The wind blew in from outside, making her bones cold.
Status?
Why did Zhu Feng suddenly bring this up?
Although, although she had admitted her feelings for him in front of the imperial concubine, that was just her own thought and she never thought of asking him to respond; as for the emperor, he had not expressed any other needs to her except for detoxification.
How could it suddenly——
She turned around blankly and looked at Wei who looked thoughtful.
After a while, he murmured, "Mother, are you going to take me away tomorrow?"
“…”
This time, Wei did not speak immediately.
A gleam flashed in her eyes, and she said, "What's going on between you and the Emperor of Yan?"
