After a series of formal thanks, all the civil and military officials stood up in unison. They stood to the sides in a well-behaved manner. Ye Wuchen's expression was calm. He couldn't help but think to himself, "It seems like Grandpa Chu is doing well in Tenryū Province." "One person saving an entire country. Could it be that the so-called God Level is really this powerful? "And that Long Yin, the better he treats me, the more it shows that he wants to kill me." The so-called betrothal to the princess seemed to be a favor, but in reality … the person died, and the princess didn't need to marry anymore. However, this so-called favor wouldn't disappear. The entire Yeh family would definitely be indebted to this "favor" and do their best for the Tenryū clan.
"Ye Wuchen, come forward and receive the decree."
"Yes!"
"In accordance with the will of the heavens, the Emperor decrees … He is specially conferred the title of Third Class Wei Country Marquis. He will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, thirty thousand taels of silver, three boxes of jade artifacts, and a marquis's residence. He also bestows the marriage to Flying Phoenix, and the marriage will be consummated when Flying Phoenix is sixteen. Bestowed by the Emperor! Wuchen of the Yeh family, please receive the decree. "
… …
By the time they walked out of the Heavenly Dragon Palace, the sky was already bright. Ye Wuchen yawned and asked Ye Wei, "Who is this Flying Phoenix?"
"Haven't you already met her?" Ye Wei revealed a smile. How could he not know that Ye Wuchen had offended Long Huang 'er? Even the entire palace was stirred up by this little princess, who wished to see the world in chaos, to the point that everyone knew about it. However, Long Yin remained indifferent to this matter from beginning to end, so this matter was left unsettled.
"In that case, it really is that little princess." Ye Wuchen shrugged, feeling somewhat helpless. Long Huang 'er didn't have any of the dignity and grace that a princess should have. It was obvious that she was a spoiled and unruly girl. It was fine to coax and raise such a little girl, but it was impossible for her to be a wife.
"Flying Phoenix is the Emperor's most beloved daughter. Her birth mother used to be the Emperor's most beloved Imperial Concubine, but she passed away in childbirth after giving birth to Flying Phoenix. Because of this, the Emperor suffered for a long time. He loved the daughter he left behind very much and was very obedient, so his character might be a little spoiled. After a few years, it should be better, "Ye Wei said.
Ye Wuchen smiled indifferently. "I hope so."
But in his heart, he knew that this marriage was just a pretense. Because if she was still in the Yeh family three years later, Long Yin would definitely come up with countless excuses to cancel the marriage. Even if Long Yin agreed, he would no longer be in the Yeh family after three years. One month … or half a month. After he had done enough for the Yeh family, it was time for him to leave. He wouldn't owe the Yeh family a favor, and he wouldn't really treat himself as the young master of the Yeh family.
When he returned to his courtyard, Ye Wuchen immediately saw a thin figure standing by the pool. The figure was as still as an ice sculpture. Before he got close, he felt a faint cold aura. When he heard footsteps, he turned around and looked straight at Ye Wuchen.
Ye Qi hurriedly came up to greet him. "Young Master, you're back. I just … "
Ye Wuchen raised his hand to stop Ye Qi and waved him back. Then he looked at Cold Cliffs and said, "Take me to see your mother."
There was no need to talk nonsense when talking to someone like him. Because he didn't need to be comforted or encouraged. He only needed facts.
Cold Cliffs turned around and walked to a room on the east side. That was originally the room of Ye Qi and Ye Ba. After they picked up Cold Cliffs and his mother, they didn't have a place to settle them. They didn't dare to make a decision on their own, so they had to let Cold Cliffs's seriously ill mother lie in their place.
The door was gently pushed open by Cold Cliffs. After walking in, Ye Wuchen saw the woman on the bed whose hair had turned half white. Hearing the voice, she supported herself with her hands on the bed and tried to prop up her body. Then she said weakly, "Xiaofeng, is that you?"
Cold Cliffs rushed over and held her body. He said softly, "Mother, it's me. Don't get up. It's been a bumpy journey. You need to have a good rest."
"There's no need. I'm fine. I heard two footsteps. Did the person who took us in come with them?"
After being blind, most of the attention would be focused on the ears. In addition, Cold Cliffs and Ye Wuchen didn't deliberately lower their footsteps, so she could hear them clearly. Ye Wuchen smiled and said, "Hello, Auntie. My name is Ye Wuchen. I'm Cold Cliffs's friend. This is my home."
Cold Cliffs didn't respond or deny it.
She replied excitedly, "Okay … Thank you for taking us in. Can I call you Xiaochen?"
"Of course."
Ye Wuchen walked over and glanced at her face. He asked, "Auntie, what's wrong with your eyes?"
Cold Cliffs's mother smiled bitterly and said, "I've been blind for ten years and I'm used to it. The only trouble is that Feng 'er is always by my side, but I can't see him. I don't know what he looks like now … "
"Mother …" Cold Cliffs shouted excitedly. His body twitched slightly.
All of a sudden, Ye Wuchen reached out and covered her eyes. Slowly, he brushed it across the air, allowing traces of colorless light to seep into her eyes. Then, he retracted his hand and walked out without saying a word. He closed the door.
Cold Cliffs's eyes followed him. He didn't make a sound, nor did he interfere with his actions. Until Ye Wuchen walked out, he still didn't know what he had done.
When Ye Wuchen left and he turned to look at his mother, he suddenly realized that her turbid eyes had become so clear. He could even feel her gaze, her gaze.
Cold Cliffs was stunned. He stared at the pair of eyes in front of him. He couldn't believe the voice that suddenly appeared in his heart. That pair of eyes were also flashing with surprise and confusion. It was as if she couldn't believe it was a fact.
A pair of somewhat dry and trembling hands reached out to Cold Cliffs's face. Then, she gently stroked his face, "Little Feng … You're Little Feng … Mother sees you. Mother finally sees you …"
Cold Cliffs felt like he was hit by a heavy hammer. His whole body trembled. In the next second, his tears flowed like a spring. This man who had already become cold-blooded and was destined to become cold-blooded threw everything aside. He threw himself into his mother's arms and cried loudly, venting ten years of pain and resentment. For a very long time …
"He was blinded by a sword. And judging from the wounds just now, both eyes were injured exactly the same. Both didn't hurt the eyes, but completely blinded the person. The difficulty was unimaginable. How many people in the Tianchen Continent could do this? "
The sound of mother and son crying faintly entered his ears. Ye Wuchen pondered and returned to his room.
When he came in, Ningxue, who was still nestled in the quilt, opened her eyes. She stretched out her two delicate white jade-like arms and said in a sweet voice, "Brother, help me put on my clothes."
Ye Wuchen laughed and walked to the bedside to pick up her clothes, "Cher, you're getting lazier and lazier."
"Because I like brother to put on clothes for me." Ningxue said softly and coquettishly. Then, her body was picked up by Ye Wuchen from the quilt and put on her clothes piece by piece.
