Chapter 393: The eldest sister-in-law supports the family (19)
"I see that you have changed a lot." Shi Yi filled his cup with tea and said with a gentle smile, "You have become much better than before."
Wei Yin's eyes were almost smiling when he received her praise. He had never thought of being defensive or pretending to be with her, so he let himself show his true emotions.
"You must have been tired from the journey. Take a good rest today. We can chat slowly tomorrow." Shi Yi patted the dust stuck on his robe.
He has returned. In the future, it will be time to watch him make great achievements in Dongdu.
"I will listen to the eldest sister-in-law's instructions." Wei Yin answered in accordance with her wishes.
He has returned to Dongdu and there will be no separation. He does not want to be separated again.
Yue'er was waiting outside the door. In fact, she did not run far. She just suddenly saw Wei Yin in front of her and felt a little shy.
"Let Yue'er take you there." Shi Yi blinked at the girl standing at the door. Yue'er's face immediately turned red again.
"Sister~" She lowered her head and stamped her feet.
"Okay, take Wei Yin back quickly. I still have a lot of accounts to check today." Shi Yi pretended to be impatient and drove the two away.
The two finally had a chance to talk alone. If she still didn't understand, she would be too bad.
"Sister Yue'er, let's go." Wei Yin didn't look back at the eldest sister-in-law behind him, because he understood her inner thoughts. But it was precisely because he understood that he felt melancholy.
"Second Young Master, please follow me." Yue'er blushed and walked a few steps quickly to avoid letting him see her abnormality.
"Just call me Wei Yin." Wei Yin tried to make her not so shy in front of him. But when he got on the carriage, he found that Yue'er, who was sitting next to him, had a red neck that was about to bleed.
"Wei Yin!" She boldly called his name. This was something she had never dared to think about before.
"I'm here, sister Yue'er, what do you want me to do?" Wei Yin smiled and looked over.
"You these days..." She thought for a moment, a girl should be reserved, if she said "like", "miss", "admire" directly, it would inevitably make people feel that she was not reserved. So, the next sentence that Wei Yin heard was "what are you busy with".
"Busy coming back."
Wei Yin did not hide this.
It is not as simple as just saying it to get Chen Jishi to let him come back completely. He has paid a lot! However, these have nothing to do with her.
Yue'er's face turned even redder when she heard him say this. Because she misunderstood. She thought that what the other party couldn't say was, "busy coming back to see you".
She lowered her head shyly and fell silent.
This love, which she thought she had been struggling to hold on to, was actually not as difficult as she imagined. At least, the other party also has her own heart.
Wei Yin looked at the top of her head, and he felt that something he didn't know was wrong. But for a moment he really couldn't figure out what it was.
The carriage drove all the way back to the mansion. This was the residence of a criminal in the previous dynasty. Because the layout was similar to that of the Wei Mansion, Shi Yi bought it for a large sum of money. At the same time, skilled craftsmen were invited to renovate it, basically recreating the original appearance of the Wei family.
Wei Yin discovered this a few steps after he walked into the gate. He returned to his room almost by his own memory. He saw that the furnishings in his room were exactly the same as seven years ago, without any difference.
His nose choked, and tears fell to the ground unexpectedly.
He didn't know whether it was for the eldest sister-in-law's love for him or the eldest sister-in-law's nostalgia for her brother.
In fact, he misunderstood. The layout and structure of the mansion were changed by Shi Yi's skilled craftsmen, but the furnishings in his room were carefully prepared for him by Yue'er.
Seeing him like this, Yue'er was not satisfied at all. She hid her joy in her heart and quietly withdrew.
Wei Yin returned to Dongdu and enjoyed the treatment he had before. Several princes took turns to send people to contact him, hoping that he could stand on their side. This time, he did not hesitate and directly chose the third prince.
Why did he choose the third prince? First, because he had a gentle temperament, second, because his biological mother was a foot-washing maid in the harem, and had no backing, and third, because he was the least valued by Emperor Chunde.
Although Emperor Chunde ruthlessly ordered the killing of the prince, he was still seriously ill for several days after the death of the prince. After recovering from his illness, he became more sensitive and suspicious than before. After all, if the son he loved the most could lead troops to rebel, would other sons who were not favored or valued by him be more ruthless? !
This suspicion was deeply engraved in his heart, and he became violent because of it. He often ordered his son to come to the palace when he thought of which of his sons he would send an imperial edict to. When he was in a good mood, he would reward randomly. If he was in a bad mood, he would beat and scold him at any time, and sometimes he would make his son kneel at the palace gate as punishment. Of course,
the officials of the court were not happy either. They were even worse. It was still good to be criticized by Emperor Chunde. In serious cases, he was taken down and beaten to death by the armored soldiers in the palace without knowing what he had done wrong.
As a result, a certain kind of dissatisfaction accumulated by the Song Dynasty had been brewing in secret.
As Emperor Chunde imagined, his sons really began to rebel.
His sons, one after another, committed treasonous acts. He did not tolerate them and gave them severe punishments, in the name of death.
Until finally, he found that he had only two princes. One was the third prince, whom he hated the most. The other was the fifteenth prince, who had just turned three years old.
Yes, he hated the third prince. Because the existence of the third prince was an insult to him. A great emperor can certainly sleep with all the beautiful women in the harem, but a great emperor will not sleep with a humble and ugly woman in the harem.
The biological mother of the third prince had a light blue mark on her face. In order to enter the palace and get some money to support her family, she covered it with powder. She was lucky and unfortunate. Fortunately, as a foot-washing maid, she was favored by the drunken Emperor Chunde. Unfortunately, the next morning, Emperor Chunde woke up and found the ugly birthmark on her face and was furious. He even did not want the history to record this favor, and was unwilling to admit that he had favored such a woman. Until she gave birth to the third prince in the harem in obscurity.
A man of insight is a wise man. There was no other way out in this situation. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and let the third prince start to supervise the country and manage government affairs.
However, under such circumstances, he discovered that his son was a rough diamond, and the one who was most like him. He believed that as long as he polished him well, he would definitely train him to be the best heir.
Unfortunately, he was destined to be disappointed.
