Chapter 559 My Appearance Is Your Future
Zhou Shang left. In the room, Ye Wenyan and Zhuier looked at each other in silence for a long time.
Finally, Zhuier couldn't hold it in any longer, closed the door and started to curse - "What a thing! How could there be such a person in the world? No wonder the old lady doesn't like him. If he were my son, I wouldn't like him either!"
After that, he apologized to Ye Wenyan: "I'm sorry, Miss. I didn't mean to take advantage of you. I was so angry that I said something I didn't want to say. Please forgive me, Miss."
Ye Wenyan waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, I don't care about these words."
"Then, young lady, do you care about what the general did?" Ye Wenyan wanted to say that I didn't really care, because after all, he was not my biological father, and I was not his biological daughter. No matter how bad he was, he couldn't do anything to me. Besides, I hadn't come here when he was bad. When I came, my bad father had been dead for more than a month. What was there to care about?
But that can't be said, because she is still the biological daughter of General Ye. And the real Fourth Miss Ye has always been obsessed with finding out the real cause of death of the old general and the general, and let the murderer get the punishment he deserves.
Now the cause of General Ye's death is very clear, the old lady herself admitted that she was angered to death. Every grievance has its perpetrator, and Ye Feizhou has also gone to Ping County to ask the head of the Ye family. It is easy for her to avenge the old general.
But the general’s revenge is a bit tricky!
These things are linked together. On the surface, it seems that the second family bribed Xichun to poison and kill the general. But in fact, through Xiao Shubai and Zhou Shang's words, she found that things were not as simple as they seemed. Although Xiao Shubai always believed that the general died in his hands, Ye Wenyan felt that this matter was also related to Mu Qianqiu, and it was even possible that Mu Qianqiu killed the general.
Then things become complicated again! If the second house kills someone, revenge is easy, just pay one life for one life. But if the person died at the hands of Mu Qianqiu, how can this life be paid for? If Miss Ye Si knew about this in the afterlife, would she still insist on her decision to seek revenge?
"Miss." Zhuier called out to her when she didn't speak, and then asked carefully, "Miss, are you angry? If you are angry, I will not scold the general anymore. After all, he is your father, and Zhou Shang is right. Although he has let his family down, he has made great contributions to the country. With great contributions to offset small mistakes, he is still a great general who deserves respect."
Ye Wenyan came back to his senses and shook his head. "I'm not angry. He deserves to be scolded. It has nothing to do with whether he is a general or not. He is a scumbag. There is nothing to whitewash. Besides, this is not a matter of loyalty and filial piety. Being worthy of the family does not conflict with defending the territory. He is not in a dilemma, so he does not deserve to be forgiven."
Zhuier breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad you think this way, young lady. I was worried that you would be soft-hearted towards the general out of consideration for the father-daughter relationship!"
Ye Wenyan laughed, "What kind of father-daughter relationship do we have? How many times does he come back in a year? Even if he comes back, besides accompanying my mother, he goes out to have a drink with old friends, or goes to the camp outside the capital. How can he have time to talk to us kids? He only brought me along twice when he had a drink with the Marquis of the Xiao family, but he didn't say much to me."
"Well, young lady, what should we do about this? Should we tell the eldest lady?"
Ye Wenyan shook his head, "Not for now. Mother already knows about the concubine with a child, so there's no need to talk about it. The eldest princess is dead, so the matter is over and no one will mention it again. As for Madam Qin and Madam Jing... I don't know where they are now, so we have to be on guard against them coming to our house and causing trouble for mother."
Zhuier was also upset when he heard this, "Miss, there is another more important person!" "Are you talking about the child?" She nodded, "Yes, there is another child, I'm afraid there will be a big fuss sooner or later."
At the hour of Hai, on the streets of Lin'an inner city, the Fourth Prince Quan Qinghua was walking slowly with a little boy.
The little boy was Hu Zi. He kept his head down, didn't speak, and didn't struggle. He went wherever Quan Qinghua led him.
The two walked to the entrance of an alley and saw a mansion in the distance. Quan Qinghua said to Hu Zi, "Do you see that mansion? That is the Third Prince's Renwang Mansion."
Hu Zi seemed to be moved. He raised his head and looked forward, but he was still confused.
Quan Qinghua asked again: "Do you know why I brought you here?"
Hu Zi shook his head.
Quan Qinghua asked again: "Then do you know who I am?"
Hu Zi still shook his head. He stretched out his hand and rubbed Hu Zi's head a few times, saying: "I am the fourth prince, and my title is the King of Dust. The third prince is my half brother. You don't have to be afraid. Since I brought you out, I will be responsible for you. At least I won't drive you out of the house like your uncle and aunt did. You don't have to worry. Tomorrow your father will be buried. I will personally send you to the burial place, let you burn paper and kowtow to your father, and then add the first and last handfuls of soil to his grave. But when everything is done, you have to come back with me, study martial arts, grow up day by day, and forget everything that happened in your family this year."
Hu Zi is young, but he has grown up a lot overnight. The changes in his family have turned a little boy into a teenager with a lot on his mind. Although he is still short in stature, he speaks like an old man.
He asked Quan Qinghua: "Why did you bring me out? And why did you let me study and practice martial arts with you?"
Quan Qinghua didn't answer him, but just asked him: "Do you regret it now? If I had killed that woman that day, at least you would still have a father now, and you wouldn't lose both your parents overnight and be left alone." Hu Zi thought for a while and shook his head: "No regrets, if it happens again, I will still ask you not to kill her."
He looked up at Quan Qinghua and thought that this prince was so handsome. It was the first time he had seen such a good-looking person. He was like a god from a book, dressed in white, and pure in heart.
He was educated. His father taught him to read when he was very young. He was much better at reading than other children of the same age. He also heard his father talk about the past. His father said that he had also participated in the imperial examination and passed the provincial examination, but his family did not have money for him to continue studying and participate in the metropolitan examination. His father hoped that he could study hard, become the top scholar in the future, become a high-ranking official, and change his life.
But his mother was not good enough, she was noisy all day long, and the house was rarely quiet. In the end, his father was in no mood to teach him anymore. He would go out to work every day or sigh at home.
Reading has become a wonderful luxury.
"Fourth Prince," Hu Zi asked him, "Do you think mother would become a better person if father didn't kill anyone this time?" Quan Qinghua laughed, "Become a better person? How is that possible! A person's nature is what she will be like throughout her life. Even if there is a change, it is just a compromise she has to make due to livelihood or circumstances. And this compromise is very short-lived. It won't be long before her true colors are revealed and she will go back to the path she was used to walking before."
"But why did she do that?" Hu Zi still couldn't figure it out. "Our family lives a good life. My father was afraid that her face would be damaged by the ashes, so he never let her light the fire and cook. My father cooked all the meals at home, and I chopped the firewood bit by bit with a small axe. She just sat at the table and waited for food. Why didn't she live a good life like this? Why did she look for those men? Your Highness, do you know what they were doing? I saw it a few times, but I didn't understand it."
Quan Qinghua could feel Hu Zi's head shaking. Although he didn't understand what he was doing, he knew in his heart that it was not a good thing. But how should he tell this child? He couldn't tell him what those things were, so he could only say: "That was a betrayal to your father and a harm to you. No good woman would do that. You will understand when you grow up. If you haven't forgotten her by then, you will definitely hate her."
"But will I really forget her? She is my mother. How can a person forget his mother?"
"Yes, it's impossible for a person to forget his mother, so just remember her. Hate her if you should, and miss her if you should. I just hope that while you remember your mother, you can also remember your father, and understand his anger and despair, as well as his guilt and reluctance to let you go before he died." He pulled Hu Zi and continued to walk forward. "Just now I asked you if you knew why I brought you here. Now I'm telling you, I brought you to see my mother, a woman who is as morally corrupt as your own mother."
The guards at the gate of Renwang Palace were stunned when they saw Quan Qinghua, and then they were also stunned when they saw the child in his hands.
Fortunately, the Third Prince had already given instructions that if the Fourth Prince came to visit, he should be invited into the mansion immediately and the message should be passed on quickly.
The guard opened the door of the mansion, and someone went to the backyard to report to the Third Prince.
Quan Qinghua took Hu Zi all the way to the front hall. Although Hu Zi was surprised by the grandeur of the palace, he did not lose his temper. He calmed down after a brief surprise and nodded.
"You are a really good kid." He said this, then sat down and picked up the teacup handed to him by the servant.
Hu Zi did not sit down. He looked at his mourning clothes and then at the chair in Renwang Palace which was made of some precious wood. He felt that his life was not as valuable as this chair and he was not worthy of sitting on it.
Quan Qinghua didn't ask him to sit down. She just said to him while drinking tea, "I'm a coward. I don't have the courage to come here, let alone meet that person. So I brought you along today. We've suffered the same hurt. You can give me courage, and I'll also show you a future that you don't have the chance to see."
Hu Zi didn't understand, "What do you mean by a future you won't have a chance to see?" Quan Qinghua told him, "It's what you just asked me, what would life be like if your father hadn't killed anyone..."
