Standing in the pavilion in the garden of the Ye family, Ye Yiqing recalled his life in the Jin Kingdom. Other than living a leisurely life like a young master, there didn't seem to be any real meaning. His life wasn't as fulfilling as it was in Dongqing.
He used to think that after experiencing so much scheming and scheming, he would be more relaxed after changing his life, so he forgot about his past as a military officer, forgot about his glorious achievements, and focused on living the life of a young master from a prestigious family. It was not until the Ye family was confiscated and he went to Dongqing to become Li Heng's advisor that he realized some things were engraved in his bones. It was impossible to forget them even if he wanted to.
Maybe he was more suited for a life where he could show off his talents.
"Father, you were looking for me?" Ye Chunnan slowly walked over and stood behind Ye Yiqing.
Ye Yiqing didn't turn around. He just looked at the blooming garden. "How does it feel to return to the Ye family?"
"Things remain the same, but people have changed." Ye Chunnan said in a low voice. After all, this was where he grew up. He thought he would never come back. Naturally, he had mixed feelings.
"I want to discuss something with you," Ye Yiqing said in a low voice.
Ye Chunnan looked at Ye Yiqing's back silently. He seemed to have guessed what he was going to say. "Father, are you worried that Yaoyao will be bullied in the Jin Kingdom?"
"She is now the Empress. Other than Mo Rongzhan, who else can bully her?" Ye Yiqing smiled. He wasn't worried about his daughter's life in the Jin Kingdom. They were both men. He could see Mo Rongzhan's deep love for his daughter. Moreover, the Empress Dowager had already gone to Chengde Villa. With his daughter's status in the palace, even if the Empress Dowager came back in the future, as long as she didn't lower her head, no one could climb over her.
Ye Chunnan frowned in confusion. "Father, why is that?"
"The most important reason for letting you stay in the Jin Kingdom is that I don't want anything to happen to you in the future. Of course, with you here, Mo Rongzhan will definitely put you in an important position. You can also be Yaoyao's shield," Ye Yiqing said in a low voice.
"Father, I don't understand. There are more people in the Jin Kingdom who want to know about the Ye family. With you in Dongqing, how can anything happen to me?" Ye Chunnan said.
Ye Yiqing shook his head lightly. "Dongqing cannot have you because I am here. You have already contributed a lot to Dongqing. How can Li Heng reward you and the Ye family? It is not a good thing to have too many merits. Moreover, you and I, one of us is a scholar and the other is a warrior. Sooner or later, Li Heng will be wary of us in court. He trusts us now, but in the future, he may be instigated. Moreover … the Jin Kingdom is the real root of the Ye family.
"Even if I stay in the Kingdom, Mo Rongzhan may not use me. I don't have the power to protect Kingdom. I don't have the power. Ye Chunnan said that he was naturally willing to stay, but the shadow that First Uncle left on everyone in the court was too deep. They certainly did not want to see the Ye family rise again.
Ye Yiqing indifferently shook his head. "Although I don't like Mo Rongzhan, I have to admit that he's a pretty good emperor. He knows how to make good use of people. If you stay, for Yaoyao's sake, he won't let you have an idle post."
"Does he want me to stay?" Ye Chunnan asked.
"Of course I'm willing." Ye Yiqing nodded indifferently. "You can enter the palace tomorrow to visit Yaoyao. You will naturally know then."
Ye Chunnan thought for a moment. "If Mo Rongzhan doesn't mind, then I want to stay."
"Alright." Ye Yiqing looked at him appreciatively and asked, "What do you plan to do with Jin Shanshan?"
"Arrange what?" Ye Chunnan didn't quite understand.
Ye Yiqing looked at his son speechlessly. "Do you really think of her as a maid? Don't forget, she's from the Dark North Kingdom. She still has a deep grudge. "
"It's not that I don't want her to take revenge, but what right does she have to take revenge on Wan Ziliang?" Ye Chunnan said.
"If you want to help her, think of a way to let her return to the battlefield." Ye Yiqing said lightly, "General Jin's old subordinates are not enough to shake Wan Ziliang's position in the Dark North Kingdom."
Ye Chunnan roughly understood what his father meant. "Father, she has to be willing first."
"This is your business. I will not interfere." Ye Yiqing said. He just felt that his son was so slow in some aspects that it made people sigh.
"Father, then you and Zhao Yang …" Ye Chunnan seemed a little embarrassed to ask this question. After all, he was not Ye Zhen. Some things should not be asked by him. However, his father marrying a second wife was a big deal. He didn't know when his father planned to marry Zhao Yang. Now the whole capital knew about it.
Ye Yiqing said, "Zhao Yang and I will get married in Dongqing."
His daughter had just gotten married not long ago. As a father, it was impossible for him to marry a second wife immediately. Moreover, Zhao Yang probably didn't want to get married in the Jin Kingdom.
"Oh." Ye Chunnan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he didn't really want to call Zhao Yang mother.
Ye Yiqing said, "This is what I want to talk about today. You go back and prepare for tomorrow's visit to the palace."
What preparation for tomorrow's visit to the palace? It must be that his father wants to go to Gourd Alley again. Ye Chunnan cursed in his heart, cupped his hands, and retreated.
Ye Chunnan had just returned to his courtyard when he saw Jin Shanshan standing by the door, staring blankly at the sky.
"What are you thinking about?" He walked over and asked in a low voice.
Jin Shanshan came back to her senses and lowered her head without even looking at him. "Nothing."
Ye Chunnan frowned and looked at her. "There is something I want to tell you."
"What is it?" Jin Shanshan asked.
"I will stay in the Jin Kingdom in the future. I will not go to Dongqing again. If you want to stay, you can continue to live here. If you don't want to, you can go to Dongqing with my father." Ye Chunnan said lightly.
Jin Shanshan looked at him seriously. "Will you stay in the Jin Kingdom and become a general?"
"As long as there is a chance, I will naturally make a name for myself." Ye Chunnan said.
"I have been to the battlefield. Although I am not a veteran, I have experience. In the future … if there is a chance to fight against Wan Ziliang, can I be your deputy?" Jin Shanshan asked in a low voice.
Ye Chunnan looked down at her. "Do you want to stay with me?"
Although there was nothing wrong with what he said, Jin Shanshan felt that it was a little strange. There seemed to be an inexplicable tremble in his heart. "The only person who can help me now is you. I bet that you can help me take revenge in the future and kill Wan Ziliang."
"Okay, I promise you. If I can become a general of the Jin Kingdom in the future, I will definitely let you be my deputy." Ye Chunnan said seriously. At this time, he never thought that this sentence would become a reason for Jin Shanshan in the future.
Jin Shanshan's eyes brightened. "Okay, this is what you promised!"
