The emperor abdicated the throne very suddenly. He was only 37 years old this year, which was considered to be in his prime.
But Wei Ning didn't think it was a bad thing, and Jiang Yi naturally didn't think it was a big deal either.
They took their young son and daughter to the south of the Yangtze River. The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River was beautiful. Wei Ning also bought a house here. The two spent several months of simple and happy life there.
Wei Ning tried very hard to suppress the toxins in his body. He also wanted to spend more time with Jiang Yi. The later they parted, the better.
Then three months passed, and then five months passed...
Five years have passed.
Wei An was overwhelmed by the numerous state affairs, while his father and mother were still having a good time outside.
Not only that, his mother later gave birth to two little sisters for him.
Wei An couldn't help but suspect that his father had lied to him when he said he was poisoned and didn't have much time left.
Just to leave him here to suffer.
He also wanted to spend a leisurely time strolling around Jiangnan with the Crown Princess...
Wei An sent many letters to the retired emperor, hoping that his father and mother would come back, saying that he wanted to see his younger brothers and sisters, but the retired emperor ignored him.
The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is beautiful, and away from all the miscellaneous political affairs, he feels like he has become lighter.
Days like this are so beautiful that Wei Ning doesn't want to go back.
Ten years later, when Wei Ning brought Jiang Yi back, what he saw was Wei An with a resentful look on his face.
How could he tell his son that he really hadn't lied to him?
No matter what, Wei An would never believe his father again.
But when the emperor really passed away, Wei An still cried very sadly.
As the eldest son, he was raised by Wei Ning himself.
He has very deep feelings for his father.
Jiang Yi stayed by Wei Ning's side, vaguely recalling what Wei Ning had said to her not long ago.
Wei Ning told her about his poisoning. He said, "I should have died a long time ago. At that time, I was very worried about you, so I asked the children to keep an eye on you."
Jiang Yi naturally remembered that there was indeed a period of time when the children pestered her in various ways, which made her a little distressed. But now she suddenly felt enlightened.
Wei Ning added, "Thank goodness, God has been kind to me. I have now passed away naturally. Even if I am gone, it will be a happy funeral. Little Twenty and Little Twenty-one haven't married yet. You must take good care of them. When they do marry, write to me."
"And Shu Xin, this child is our eldest daughter, but she is the one that worries me the most. Life at the border is so hard, and she has stayed there day in and day out for over a decade, saying she wants to protect the country for her royal brother."
"But that's enough. She's not young anymore. While I'm gone, try to persuade her when she comes back. If that doesn't work, try to play the emotional card. Tell her that you're here and can't bear to leave her. Ask her to stay with you. She's the type to be soft-hearted and not hard-hearted..."
Wei Ning talked a lot to Jiang Yi that night. Jiang Yi knew that he said so much to her because he was really worried about the children, but he was even more worried about her.
He said to her, "When I leave, you must send me off with a smile. You look best when you smile."
He also said: "There have been many people who have made you sad, but I don't want you to be sad even a little bit because of me."
He also said: "Actually, there is one thing I didn't tell you. When I first met you, I had bad intentions..."
"At that time, I thought in a despicable way that it would be fun to conquer the wife of Marquis Wu Ding."
Jiang Yi then told him his secret, "Actually, I knew your identity from the very beginning."
It was actually she who had ulterior motives.
But Wei Ning said in surprise: "So you have planned this for me."
He quickly added seriously, "But your warmth and kindness make me afraid to offend you. It is only at this moment that I dare to tell you that I hope my little Jiang Yi will always be warm and kind, and not sad."
"So, never cry."
Jiang Yi asked him, "Don't you hate me? What you loved at first was just an illusion I created. It was all fake, a disguise."
Wei Ning said, "How could that be? Love is a feeling. You are right here. What does it matter if it's true or false? It's still you."
"Do people reveal their true selves to others? No, no one does."
“But love is a feeling.”
“It is because I feel happy when I see this person.”
"It's like fate has destined me to be attracted to you, and you'll fall in love with me, and we're destined to be together."
As Jiang Yi thought about it, he actually didn't cry.
She said goodbye to Wei Ning with a smile.
At her age, there is actually nothing that she cannot let go of, but when she thinks about the past and every little detail of these years, she still feels a palpitation.
She will live well with his good expectations.
After sending Wei Ning away, Jiang Yi followed Wei Ning's instructions and really kept Shu Ning, and watched his two youngest daughters get married.
She rarely goes out, but her children are filial and always come to see her from time to time.
It was New Year's Eve again, and the children came a day early to have dinner with Jiang Yi. The whole family filled the entire palace.
During this year, Wei An had a grandson, and Jiang Yi became a great-grandmother.
Groups of children surrounded Jiang Yi, talking and laughing, and Jiang Yi seemed to see his past life self.
The self who died in the fire, and An'er who died in the cold winter.
Everything is different.
