Over the years, with all the political maneuvering and supporting his mistress and children, he has hardly been wealthy. The fact that he is so generous today shows that Ye Zhengqing completely trusts her.
He then stopped playing the innocent card, saying, "If you want to change your luck, you either have to let go of your obsession or give up what doesn't belong to you."
Ye Zhengqing's obsession was to rise to a high position and become a high-ranking official. He had already gone this far, so it was impossible for him to give up being an official.
Therefore, he asked, "Master, could you please explain what you mean by 'it should not belong to me'?"
Ye Zhen rolled her eyes at her, "Twenty years ago, what did you take from her?"
The saying "everyone has their own destiny" means that everyone's fate is predetermined at birth, but you, because of your own greed, have altered someone else's destiny.
Ye Zhengqing's heart was in turmoil.
The Taoist priest had indeed foreseen the switch. "Please advise me, Master, what should I do?"
"The best solution is for everyone to return to their proper places."
If everyone goes back to their places, it means the switch will be made public, and then how will he survive?
Just as Ye Zhengqing was doubting the Taoist's nonsense, he heard him say again, "Those with little fortune cannot bear great wealth and honor; in the end, they will all be for naught and will even bring trouble to their loved ones."
Conversely, those with auspicious destinies who are prone to misbehavior will inevitably suffer a backlash, and you are currently reaping the bitter fruits of that backlash.
If you cannot return to your original position, first sever ties with those whose destinies are considered auspicious to mitigate the negative impact, and then try to change your fortune.
Does severing ties with family mean cutting all ties?
Ye Zhen rolled his eyes again. "I have already revealed too many secrets of heaven today, and I cannot say any more. If you believe me, then do as I say. Once you have achieved results, take the money to Qingxu Temple outside the city, and I will help you change your luck."
After saying that, he quickly left the carriage.
The Kunlun slave tried to stop him, but it was too late.
Ye Zhengqing returned to his residence with a heavy heart.
According to the Taoist priest, his recent misfortunes are all the backlash from the switched child. The person with little fortune cannot bear great wealth, which refers to Ye Wantang.
Ye Zhen is a person of noble destiny, and only by severing ties with her can he change his current predicament.
As Ye Zhengqing considered Ye Wantang's current predicament, he felt more and more that the Taoist priest's words made sense.
He and Madam Wang had chosen such a good path for Ye Wantang, yet she had ruined herself into what she is today, and even dragged him and Madam Wang down with her. It's no wonder she's not blessed enough to bear wealth and honor.
"Useless trash."
Ye Zhengqing muttered under his breath, "No, I have to think of a way to completely sever ties with Ye Zhen."
Anyway, Ye Zhen hated her to the core, and he didn't expect to get anything out of her.
If severing ties is useless, then how can one truly draw a clear line?
Denying she is his biological daughter?
Ye Zhengqing looked worried, while Ye Zhen happily returned to the alley to change back into his own clothes.
She was going back to divide the spoils with Xie Tingzhou when she arrived at the entrance of the Marquis's residence and saw Xie Tingzhou standing there looking at her.
Ye Zhen stepped forward with a smile, "What are you doing here..."
But they're waiting for me.
What she received in return was Xie Tingzhou's cold words, "Sister-in-law, be more reserved. It would be against ethics and morality for us to get too close."
