[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life

After Butler Li left, Rong Enqing carefully summarized the information he had received today and came to a conclusion that Yun Yi was most likely not dead and was hiding in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

And this is also the reason why Emperor Taihe has been keeping a close eye on the Shun'an Marquis Mansion.

Then, what she needs to do next is to make a decision and then move towards her goal unswervingly.

Yun Yi, Emperor Taihe. War and peace.

In fact, she had already made up her mind!

From the beginning to the end, all she wanted was to live peacefully, happily and leisurely until she was a hundred years old.

Compared with Emperor Taihe, Yun Yi lacked a decisiveness. Otherwise, it would be unclear whether the people in the world would have the surname Xia or Yun.

Just like what Butler Li said, if you miss it, you miss it. Yun Yi has already missed the best opportunity. If he starts a war again, he will no longer be a hero, but a sinner.

As for war and stability, it is said that it is better to be a dog in peacetime than a man in troubled times. Any normal person would not make the wrong choice.

Rong Enqing had made a decision in his heart, and his anxious heart finally relaxed a little.

Next, I discussed the next plans with Yun Ye.

But in the evening, A Mou, the servant who followed Yun Ye, came back to report that Yun Ye was staying in the academy with Xu Changping and would not return home that night.

Ever since Xu Changping got engaged to Yun Shu as he wished thanks to the help of the three Yun Ye brothers, the relationship between Xu Changping and Yun Ye has become much closer.

Before, the relationship between the two was just that of a teacher and a student. At most, there was an additional filter, that of a young genius student and a knowledgeable young teacher, who had a little appreciation for each other.

But since they had a new relationship as nephew and future uncle-in-law, Xu Changping often called Yun Ye over to give him special treatment. The mutual appreciation between the two gradually turned into respect and admiration.

Yun Ye began to absorb knowledge from Xu Changping through the opportunity of private lessons, but the more he studied with Xu Changping, the more he was impressed by Xu Changping's knowledge.

A young scholar of twenty years old is actually better than an old scholar of sixty or seventy years old! How can one not admire him?

During their interactions, Xu Changping also realized that Yun Ye was intelligent, prudent, and had a rationality and clarity that his peers could never achieve.

The two of them got along better and better, so well that it gave people the illusion that they were father and son.

Rong Enqing waited for another whole day, and Yun Ye finally came back the next night. But Rong Enqing still couldn't wait for Yun Ye.

After Yun Ye returned home, Steward Li immediately told Yun Ye everything he knew. After hearing what Steward Li said, Yun Ye locked himself in the room and sent out orders that he would not see anyone.

Rong Enqing was waiting for Yun Ye to come and discuss things with him, but what he got was the news that Yun Ye had locked him up.

Rong Enqing didn't take it to heart. After all, he had some indigestion after listening to what Butler Li said yesterday. It was reasonable for him to want to be alone and quiet.

However, the next morning, Ah Mou from the main courtyard came to report that Yun Ye had locked himself in the room. When it was time for school, they called several times outside the room, but there was no movement from inside.

Everyone was terrified, knocking on the door and calling out, but there was no response. It was not until Ah Mou suggested breaking the door open that Yun Ye's roar was heard from inside the room.

He just said one word: "Get lost!"

Then A-Mo asked someone to watch the house and he rushed over to find Rong Enqing.

When Rong Enqing heard this, he was also shocked and rushed to the main courtyard.

However, when they arrived at the main courtyard, Zhang had already arrived. She was standing at the door, knocking on the door with tears in her eyes, and calling softly: "Yun Ye, please open the door. Your mother is here to see you, and you won't open the door? What happened to you? Tell your mother! Let's find a solution together, okay?"

A-Mou glanced at Zhang with a strange look, then his gaze swept among the servants in the main courtyard, finally stopping on a young man with evasive eyes.

The main courtyard where Yun Ye lived originally had seven guards: Hu Shan, Zi Zhong, Zi Shu, Zi Li, Zi Qing, A Yi, and A Mou.

The first five people were picked out by Rong Enqing at the request of Butler Li from the people left in Yun Zhen and given to Yun Ye when the family was first divided.

The last two people were selected from the village later.

Gradually, depending on Yun Ye's attitude towards them, the division of labor among them became different.

Among them, Hu Shan has the best martial arts. Although Yun Ye once asked him to protect the safety of the main courtyard and gave him a position similar to the captain of the guard, and his monthly salary is also the highest among the few people, Yun Ye does not trust him too much, so he is somewhat marginalized. In fact, he does not have much say in the main courtyard.

It was precisely because of this that the greatest master in the Marquis' Mansion was arranged to teach martial arts to a few little girls.

Among the remaining people, Yun Ye trusts Zi Zhong and A Mou the most.

Zizhong, also known as He Zizhong, used his own abilities and the fact that he grew up next to Yun Zhen to help Yun Ye gather people in the mansion, and also planted many spies in the housekeeper Li's place. In this way, he gained Yun Ye's great trust.

As Yun Ye assigned more and more tasks to He Zizhong, He Zizhong was slowly transforming into Yun Ye's steward.

He Zizhong naturally became the top decision-maker among the servants in the main courtyard.

Ah Mou was brought by Yun Ye to be his personal servant. He was the person with the most say in the main courtyard besides He Zizhong.

During this period, He Zizhong has been busy investigating the affairs of the old Marquis Yun Yi, and has not spent much time in the main courtyard. This morning, He Zizhong was not there either.

Therefore, after discovering Yun Ye's abnormality, A Mou took the initiative to step forward to take control of the situation. He ordered people to guard outside the house and did not make any unnecessary arrangements.

However, after he invited Rong Enqing, Zhang appeared in the main courtyard earlier.

There is only one possibility, that is, someone disobeyed his arrangements and went to find Zhang.

And this person was also easy to find. The young man who looked evasive and guilty when he met his gaze, if he remembered correctly, should be called Erniu, one of the people who entered the palace at the same time as him.

However, he was directly chosen by Yun Ye, given a name, and served closely.

The young man was finally assigned to do odd jobs as a servant in the main courtyard.

A Mou looked at Erniu deeply and remembered this young man in his heart.

Just as A-mou was observing his surroundings, Rong Enqing had already walked to the door.

"Calm down. Yun Ye is a steady kid. He locked himself in the room. There must be something he hasn't figured out yet. Letting him calm down for a while may not be a bad thing."

Zhang looked at Rong Enqing disapprovingly, "But he has locked himself in his room all night. No, I have to ask Butler Li what he said to Yun Ye last night."

Having said that, Zhang turned around and told someone to call Butler Li.
