The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with
Chapter 505: General Bai Day
Chapter 505: General Bai Day
The betrothal gifts were still being carried in, and the mansions on both sides were filled up. Lian Shi began to help Ye Wenyan continue to expand the capacity in this alley.
The First Prince and the Second Prince felt that they could not stay there any longer. With the Yanhua Palace putting pressure on them, no one would dare to say a word if Ye Wenyan killed the emperor, let alone the princess.
They would only make a fool of themselves if they stayed any longer, so they should leave immediately and go back to discuss the matter.
So the two of them waved their hands and were about to leave with the imperial guards, but were stopped by Ye Feiyu - "Where are you going, Your Highnesses? Before you leave, should you first compensate for the door you kicked in? Also, you slandered my sister without any reason. There is neither a warrant from the government nor an imperial decree. Even if you are princes, you do not have the right to break into the official residence and shout for war and killing! Moreover, this is a first-rank general's mansion. If anyone can kick it and make trouble, what will become of our family?"
"Young Master Ye is right! Your Highnesses must give an explanation for this matter!"
The man spoke in a buzzing voice with full of energy, walking forward as he spoke.
Perhaps because he was too big, people around him were afraid of getting hurt, so they made way for him, creating a relatively spacious path in such a crowded alley.
Ye Wenyan looked in the direction he was going, and saw that the man walking towards him was about two meters tall, very strong, and his steps were steady. He was wearing armor, his eyes were clear, and his righteous spirit was approaching him inch by inch.
Ye Wenyan began to dig into the original owner's memory and soon remembered this man. This was one of the two fierce generals beside the old general Ye Zhenwei, the daytime general Lu Wei!
This man is known for his strength. It is said that he can lift a 1,000-jin tripod with one hand. The original owner has never seen Lv Wei lift a tripod, but since there is such a legend, even if he can't lift a 1,000-jin tripod, he can at least lift 500-jin. Lifting 500-jin with one hand is already a miracle.
In fact, the original owner was very familiar with Lu Wei. This man was two years younger than the original owner's father Ye Jinggui. He lived at the border before he joined the army. His wife and children were killed by rebels at the border. He joined the army in anger and followed General Ye. He regarded fighting as revenge for his wife and children. He always rushed to the front to kill the enemy, killed the most people, chopped off the most heads, and of course suffered the most injuries.
Later, the old general brought him back to the capital, bought him property, and wanted to help him marry again. But he refused to do so, saying that he was always afraid and would think of his dead wife and children whenever he closed his eyes. Marrying another one would only delay her.
So he never remarried. Instead, every time he returned to Beijing after a battle, he would bring some delicious and fun things for Ye Wenyan, come to her house and entertain her for most of the day, and then go back to his own home.
The old general once told the original owner that your uncle Lu treated you as his dead child. Unfortunately, the original owner was still young at the time and didn't understand much, so he was always lukewarm towards Lu Wei. Lu Wei returned to the capital this time, and he must have just won a victory. Although there were no major battles in Northern Qi in recent years, there were still constant conflicts at the border, and there would be a fight every three days. There was a small fight every five days, and there were also casualties.
She looked at Lu Wei and felt that he was much older than she remembered. Although he walked steadily, she could see that Lu Wei's left leg was injured, and he was not as strong as his right leg. In addition, as he got older, the old injuries from fighting in his youth also came back. Compared with the officials of the same age who worked in the civil service in Beijing, Lu Wei's health was very poor.
"Uncle Lu, you're back!" She took the initiative to call him and took a few steps forward to greet him. "Before my grandfather passed away, he kept talking about how Uncle Lu had won a few more battles and was always wondering when Uncle Lu would come back to Beijing. Unfortunately, my grandfather passed away in a hurry and he didn't get to see Uncle Lu again in the end."
General Ye indeed did not meet Lu Wei in the end, and he also did not meet another powerful general, General Wen Yue of Dark Night.
Because the old general had grown old and no longer led troops, he returned to Beijing to retire. The battle at the border was handed over to his eldest son Ye Jinggui and his two generals Bai Daye and An Ye.
It was near the twelfth lunar month when the old general fell seriously ill. Ye Jinggui happened to be in Beijing, but Lu Wei and Wen Yue were stationed at the border.
That was guarding the national border, and it was no joke, so even though they later received the news that the old general and the great general had both passed away, they were unable to rush back because the border had always been unstable.
The unrest at the border was finally quelled. He left Wen Yue to guard the place and rushed to the capital at all costs, but it was already this season.
"The fourth girl has grown up." Lu Wei walked up to her and looked down at her, his eyes full of love. After looking at her for a while, he untied the bag on his back, squatted down, put it on the ground, opened it, and took out the things inside one by one.
"These are some new things invented by the people living on the border. I brought some back for you to play with. I was so busy on the way back that I didn't buy anything for you. Fourth Miss, I haven't been back to Beijing for two years. In my mind, you were still a child, but I didn't expect you have grown up into a big girl. I'm afraid you don't like these little things anymore. I should have brought some rouge and powder, or jewelry, which are things a big girl should use. Next time, I will buy them for you next time I come back."
As he was about to pack the things back, Ye Wenyan quickly snatched the bag away, "Who said I don't like it! The border is so far away, I can't go even if I want to, so I rely on these things to relieve my boredom. Uncle Lu brought them back from far away, why would he take them away just after I take a look? How stingy!" She pretended to be angry and hugged the bag in her arms as if she was snatching a treasure.
Lü Wei's nose turned sour when he saw her like this. He sniffed twice and quickly stood up. He stopped talking to her and bowed deeply to Mu. "Madam, Lü Wei was carrying the burden of the border and was unable to come back to see the old general and the general off for the last time. I hope you won't blame me and I'm sorry."
Mu also started crying, wiped her tears and leaned over to return the greeting: "General Lu is kind-hearted. Jing Gui was thinking about the border before he died. He also told me that he would persuade you more when he saw you again. You are old, so let the young people do the charging. Although there is hatred in my heart, so many years have passed, and the revenge that should be taken has been taken. The living must live their own lives."
Lu Wei nodded, "Madam, you are right. Lu Wei has taken note of it. Madam, rest assured. Lu Wei will stay in the capital for a few more days after returning this time. If there is anything that the family needs help with in the future, just let me know. If anyone comes to make trouble, I, Lu Wei, will stop them even if I am the king of heaven! The First-Rank General's Mansion is so majestic, how can we allow them to act wildly and presumptuously here?"
Having said this, he immediately turned to look at the two princes and asked in a deafening voice, "I heard that you kicked down the door of the First Rank General's Mansion? I heard that you broke in to arrest the Fourth Miss Ye? Is that true or not?"
Quan Qingshu and Quan Qingzhao's heads were buzzing, they were most afraid of General Ye's old subordinates. Because the old subordinates were still in the army, holding a lot of military power, they were the existence that could cause earthquakes at the border with just a stomp of their feet.
When talking to such people, their status and position are not so impressive. But whether they can be impressive or not is another matter. In front of so many people, they can't lose face.
So Quan Qingshu spoke first, "General Lu, did you just come back from the border? Why didn't the soldiers report to the palace immediately after returning to Beijing? Why did they go straight to the First-Rank General's Mansion? Could it be that in General Lu's eyes, the First-Rank General's Mansion is higher in status than the Imperial Palace?"
"Hey? What are you talking about?" Before Lu Wei could get angry, Lian Shi, who was just arranging the mansion for Ye Wenyan, said, "Who was talking just now? The eldest prince or the second prince? Come on, come on, have a good argument with me, who has a higher status!"
Lian Shi squeezed to the front holding a bunch of deeds and smiled at Lu Wei, "General Lu is back! Thank you for your hard work." Then he immediately asked Quan Qingshu, "On one side is the family of the emperor's mother-in-law, and on the other side is your royal Quan family. Tell us, which one has a higher status? General Lu did not pay a visit to the emperor and empress first when he returned to Beijing. Did he go directly to the palace? Could it be that in the eyes of the eldest prince, the status of the palace is higher than that of Yanhua Palace? If all of you Quan family members think this way, then this matter will be interesting." Wu Fei, who was listening to this, quickly expressed his opinion, "It's none of the business of other Quan family members, at least it's none of our emperor's business. The emperor is absolutely a firm supporter of the emperor and empress. As for what the eldest prince and the second prince think, that's their own business."
After saying that, he moved to the side, further away from the two princes.
Seeing Wu Fei's action, the others did the same thing and moved to the side. Even Old Madam Ye moved, and it was unknown whether it was intentional or subconscious.
Quan Qingshu was so stunned by Lian Shi that he didn't know what to say. He was clearly talking about the First-Rank General's Mansion, so how could Lian Shi lead him to the Emperor's place with just one sentence? Damn it, this was all thanks to Ye Wenyan. What kind of magic power did this witch from the Ye family have that she could even confuse the Emperor? Could it be that she used evil magic?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he immediately felt that he must be right. Ye Wenyan must have used evil magic to bewitch Lord Emperor. He couldn't let Lord Emperor be deceived. He had to make things clear! Seeing that Quan Qingshu was about to speak again, the second prince Quan Qingzhao quickly stopped him, then shook his head at his eldest brother, and said to Lian Shi: "Of course Lord Emperor is in the front. The Quan family is nothing in front of the Emperor." After speaking, he looked at Lu Wei again, "What kind of explanation does General Lu want to ask for the Ye family?"
Lu Wei snorted angrily, "I am an outsider, and I am only here to support and seek justice for the old general and the great general's descendants. As for how to seek justice, just listen to Master Ye. If you don't listen, I don't mind chopping you off! At worst, I can trade my life for yours. I think it's worth it!"
