One touch and one silence

After Liu Yue finished speaking harshly, he hugged Nanzhi and left. Before leaving, he told Sanqi to look after the prime minister.

The prime minister looked at the two people walking away, a look of sadness appearing on his face.

He walked tremblingly to Xue Yan's side, looked at his injured arm and bleeding chest, and asked softly, "Can you still walk?"

"Hmm!" Xue Yan lowered his head, making it difficult to understand his emotions at the moment.

"Come home with Dad!"

The prime minister supported Xue Yan and walked towards his own prime minister's residence. The two walked extremely slowly, step by step, as if they were carrying a thousand pounds of weight under their feet.

So many things happened today. After he arranges for his lost and found son, he will go to the palace to apologize to His Majesty and the Seventh Prince.

He worked diligently all his life, but he never imagined that in the end his son would become a killer who killed innocent people indiscriminately.

"How have you been doing out there these years? It must not be easy to be a killer!" The prime minister found a topic and asked.

Xue Yan uttered “Hmm!” softly.

The prime minister was extremely sad. He thought that he was the prime minister, second only to the emperor and above everyone else, but his son was trained to be a killer. To whom could he tell the pain in his heart?

The prime minister calmed down and said in a light but powerful voice, "It's okay, everything will be fine in the future, just go home, dad is here!"

When the prime minister said this, tears flowed down the wrinkles on his face and fell on Xue Yan's clothes. They penetrated through the clothes and burned into Xue Yan's heart.

He never thought that he was not abandoned by his parents, let alone that his father was a man of great stature. During the years he worked as a killer, he had heard many rumors about the prime minister.

The prime minister praised by countless people turned out to be his father.

And he...

Xue Yan lowered his head and finally felt some guilt. He was supported by the prime minister, and the two of them supported each other and finally reached the prime minister's mansion.

"Yan'er, this is your home!"

"The master is back!" The servant at the door saw his master coming back with someone, and shouted loudly inside.

"Your Excellency, please take a rest. I'll be here!" The servant was about to step forward respectfully to support Xue Yan, but the Prime Minister waved his hand and pushed him away.

When the Prime Minister's wife heard the servant outside the door say that the Prime Minister had returned, she finally felt relieved.

You know, she was just eating peacefully, and suddenly a man appeared, carried the prime minister away without saying a word, which scared her to death.

As she reached the door with her cloak in her hand, she saw her husband walking in with a young man.

"The Prime Minister is back. Is it cold?"

After saying this, he was about to put the cloak in his hand on the prime minister, but he refused.

"Ask someone to invite the doctor from the palace to come over and take a look at Yan'er."

The Prime Minister's wife was stunned when she heard this, then smiled and said, "What a coincidence, you have the same name as our Yan'er."

When she said this, the Prime Minister's wife's eyes misted over and she turned her back and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

A maid has already gone out to invite the doctor.

"Madam, do you think he looks familiar?" The Prime Minister's tone was filled with a barely perceptible sadness.

The Prime Minister's wife didn't quite understand what her husband meant. She looked puzzled, but she began to look at the young man in front of her.

The more I looked at her, the more frightened I became.

This young man does look a bit like her and the Prime Minister.

At this time, the doctor came and said, "Doctor Li, quickly bandage the young master."

The word "Young Master" exploded in the ears of everyone present.

Master?

Xue Yan felt the gazes of so many people present and didn't know how to react for a moment.

The Prime Minister's wife could no longer control her tears, and with trembling hands she wanted to touch Xue Yan in front of her.

"My Lord, you are not lying to me, this is really..." The Prime Minister's wife was crying and laughing at the same time. She didn't know what to do for a moment and could only look at the Prime Minister expectantly.

The Prime Minister nodded heavily to his wife.

The Prime Minister's wife looked at the wounds on Xue Yan's body with trembling hands, and suddenly she felt angry.

"What's wrong with my son's injuries?" The aura of the Prime Minister's wife suddenly emerged.

After the doctor treated the young man's wound, he bowed to the prime minister and left. For something like this, it would be better for an outsider to leave quickly.

When the prime minister's wife saw that the prime minister didn't say anything, she wisely didn't ask any more questions.

No one knew what kind of person her husband was better than her, and she was afraid that something might have happened.

"Are you really my son? I must be dreaming!"

The Prime Minister's wife gently stroked Xue Yan's eyebrows and eyes. Yes, yes, he was very similar to them as a couple.

The prime minister's wife hugged Xue Yan and burst into tears.

Thinking about the days and nights of these years, she didn't know how she had managed to get through it.

"Yan'er..."

"Damn it Yan'er..."

"I thought I would never see you again in my lifetime, but I didn't expect to see you again."

"God has been very kind to me!"

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, our son is finally back."

The prime minister's wife didn't dare hug her son for fear of touching his wound. She leaned over the prime minister's arms and began to cry.

The Prime Minister gently patted his wife's back to comfort her.

The Prime Minister's wife cried for a long time before she realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

Given my husband's personality, there is no way he would have this kind of expression on his face when his son comes back.

She wiped her tears and asked with sobs, "Why does my husband look like this now that my son is back?"

"Hey!"

"We have found our son. Shall we retire and return home in a couple of days?"

The Prime Minister's words shocked his wife, but she agreed with a smile.

"That's good. We are old, and can't accompany Yan'er for much time. Now that Yan'er is back, we old couple must spend more time with him. Then we can find him a wife and give him grandchildren. We can then stay at home and enjoy their company." Thinking about the good things and planning for the future.

The Prime Minister's wife gently took Xue Yan's hand and held it tenderly in her palm.

"It would be good for our family to live well in the countryside when the time comes."

Xue Yan listened to their conversation and knew that this matter was probably all because of him.

Xue Yan suddenly knelt stiffly in front of the prime minister. Although he had not yet called him father, he felt extremely guilty at this moment.

The prime minister helped him up and said distressedly, "Why are you kneeling? You are not well yet. This matter has nothing to do with you. I have not stepped down from the position of prime minister all these years just to have a chance to find you. Now that you have been found, your father has no regrets."

Xue Yan's eyes became red at this moment. For the first time, he felt what deep fatherly love was.

"My people have captured the wives and daughters of some high-ranking officials and put them in the secret room in the basement of the He Family Pharmacy on West Street. They are using them to threaten and force those ministers."

"The Queen Mother might take this opportunity to release the people from the Zhennan Palace. Let me buy them some time."

The prime minister had just calmed down when he was almost fainted by his son's words.

"Someone, come here! Take my token and go to He's Pharmacy on West Street and rescue all the people. Hurry up and have someone close the city gates. No one is allowed to leave the city."

"Come with me to the palace to meet the emperor."
