Traveling through life as a widow: six sons to support her in her old age

"Dad, are we going back to Qingzhou?"

"Go back, how can you not go back? After all, your home is there."

The two brothers looked at each other, and it was Yugui who spoke up, "Dad, your grandson is already at the age of enlightenment, do you want him to stay in Qingzhou forever?"

Yu Zi'an put down the teacup and looked at Yu Gui, "Now you know the benefits of having someone in the court, and now you know how to plan for your children. Why didn't you do it earlier? If you had been more respectful to your mother, you wouldn't have ended up like this."

Yu Gui got angry when he mentioned this, "Dad, isn't it all your fault? My brother and I should have been involved in a big case, why did you make us useless?"

"I admit that what I did at first was wrong, but when your mother came back, she started to guide you in a good direction. But what about you? Did any of you listen?"

"Isn't that a failure of your education? Her mind is always filled with her non-blood-related children. She has never thought about us.

Dad, actually I resent you guys very much. With your two abilities, my eldest sister is at least the queen, and my brother and I at least hold important positions. But what have you done to me?

'Now you have to educate us all day long. No one is qualified to educate us. You have not fulfilled your responsibilities as parents, and now you are telling me what to do.'

"Jade returns."

"Brother, don't stop me. I've been holding it in for so many years. Even if she wasn't here today, I would still scold her if she was here. She just gave birth to me. Didn't she fulfill her responsibility?

For Yulin and the others, she left us as wet nurses, and she herself was either expanding territorial boundaries for others or developing national strength. For the sake of Song Sumu, she actually put aside her grudges and let you do such an offensive thing.

She even took advantage of Bae Joo-hyun's feelings for her and tricked her into becoming the executioner. Now that she's done with you, she's thrown you away and kicked Bae Joo-hyun out as well.

I look down on her from the bottom of my heart. Bah, I don't want to live in this broken princess mansion. Brother, let's go. What's the point of staying here and letting others give us alms?"

Yu Gui and Yuning walked a long way away before Yu Zian raised his head. He was actually unable to refute.

Yugui is right.

It is said that parents should plan long-term for their children.

But which of his three children was the one they planned to have?

It seems like there is none.

Thinking of this, his feelings for Lan Qiyan seemed to fade a little.

He has given so much to Dayong, why do his two sons have nothing?

Yulin is not a genuine person.

He did not stop his two sons from leaving Beijing.

To outsiders, Yu Ning and Yu Gui left Beijing because they had a quarrel with their father.

These two brothers have always been rebellious, and this behavior is consistent with their temperament.

Yu Zian had just lost his old father and was having a conflict with his son. He spent the whole day drinking to drown his sorrows in the princess's mansion.

Even Yulin didn't take it seriously.

However, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, a moon-viewing banquet was held in the palace, and officials above the fifth rank could enter the palace with their families.

Yu Zian came to the imperial mausoleum alone.

He carried his sword and came to Chu Huai's coffin with ease.

He first took out a jar of wine and threw it over, then said, "Chu Huai, you are immoral. I helped you take back the world, but not only did you not reward me, you were always on guard against me.

Now your son is persecuting me everywhere. I, a military general, have been forced by you and your son to become a farmer. I like farming, but it is my hobby and it cannot be my profession.

Because of you, my wife and children have been separated, and my family is scattered all over the place. Today I am here to formally inform you that I am going to take over your Chu family's empire.

You were the first to be unkind, so don't blame me for being unjust. I am not without ability, it's just one more fight, I can still do it."

Yu Zian talked on and on for a long time, and when he came out, the moon had risen above his head.

"The weather is bright and clear in autumn, which is a good time for rebellion."

"You're right, Dad, you finally figured it out."

Yu Zian turned around and found his daughter standing behind him.

Yu Shu pointed to the carriage in front and said, "Dad, let's get in the car and talk."

Yu Zian chuckled, "Didn't your mother tell you to just wait patiently? From now on, the throne will belong to Zheng'er."

"We can't wait any longer. Concubine De gave birth to a boy, and the Emperor gave her many goodies tonight."

"He really doesn't want Zheng'er to succeed him."

"Humph, if Xi'er and I had done nothing wrong, he would have wanted us to give up the position of Imperial Concubine to Concubine De."

"Have you contacted your mother during this period?"

"I have contacted her. She has left Daxia."

Yu Zian was shocked. "What? She is not a queen mother anymore. Why is she leaving?"

"She said she's had enough of it. She's tired of the same old life every day."

"Where did you go?"

"I don't know. She said that Daxia is stable, and this side is stable too. But she left me a batch of weapons. If I want to rebel, I can, but I can't harm the people.

He also told me that as long as my two younger brothers had enough food and drink, they would be fine, and that I should not give them too much power and money, as that would harm many people.

Yu Zian was stunned for a moment, "Did she...did she mention me?"

"Yes, she told us to take good care of you."

Yu Zi'an nodded with satisfaction. Although they could not live together as husband and wife, they were still relatives. How could Yan'er not miss him?

Suddenly I wanted to slap myself a few times. How could I blame Yan'er?

Isn't all this his own fault?

Yan'er said that he only wanted Shu'er as his child, and the other two were obtained by force.

"Shu'er, actually..."

Yu Shu waved her hands, "Dad, I don't want to listen. I know. Mom has told me everything. I didn't understand her before, but now I completely understand. Just bless her."

"Okay, okay, I get it, I get it. I will bless her, and I have already given her the divorce certificate."

"Thank you dad."

"Thank you for nothing. After all, I am the one who let her down."

"Dad, when do we start?"

"You go back to the palace and wait. I'll go find my old friend."

"As time goes on, maybe Dad will be turned away."

"Don't we still have you? A country is difficult to break into from the outside, but if there is a problem inside, then it will be easy to break into it."

Yu Shu smiled meaningfully, "Did Dad guess it?"

"Your mother must have left a lot of things for you."

"Father, I need your help. Once this is accomplished, you will be the Duke of Protectorate, and my two brothers will be marquises. It will be hereditary, and our descendants will have no worries. I will not be as heartless as the emperor."

"Okay, remember what you said."

Yulin was still celebrating the birth of his second son, and had no idea that someone had already begun plotting to take his place.

But by the time he reacted, it was too late.
