Chapter 519 I once thought of giving you a great gift
Ye Feiyu continued, "Since childhood, Yan'er and Lian Mian have fought more than once. Yan'er has never been a person who suffers a loss. I remember one time she pinned Lian Mian to the ground and beat him until his mouth was full of blood. Although you, mother, tried to stop the fight, you did not blame Yan'er. Even when Yan'er said that if she caused trouble again, she would beat her to death, but you did not say anything to Yan'er.
Compared to the past, Yan'er is now very restrained, but you let her make trouble again and again, and never punish her as a mother. You always say that she was taken to the old lady by her father when she was young, and you failed to keep her and owed her. You say that the reason why she was raised like this is not her fault, but the old lady's.
But mother, everyone knows the truth, but what's the use of just knowing it? If you don't work hard to correct her, her life will be ruined, and then you will owe her not just a dozen years, but a lifetime!
Yan'er is a good child. She knows her limits. She seems arrogant, but she won't do anything she shouldn't do. She is sensible enough to let Lianmian bully her without killing her, because she always remembers that Lianmian is your biological daughter. But do you know what she did in the princess's mansion? She ripped off the face of a lady because that lady insulted her father. She also fell out with the eldest princess because she insulted her father. You see, this is what Yan'er did. This is what Yan'er did. With her temper, she tolerated Lianmian again and again at home. Don't think that this is what she should do.
There is no such thing as should or should not in this world, only whether she is willing or not. Mother, please think about it carefully and don’t regret it. "
Ye Feiyu stood up and left without looking back. He did not return to Yujing Garden, but went straight out of the house to chase after Shi Liyuan's imperial carriage.
Shi Liyuan did not go far. The imperial carriage moved forward majestically. People were happy when they came and lonely when they left.
No one expected things to turn out like this. Even Yun Chen and Lian Shi didn't know how to persuade them, so they could only mutter, "Madam Ye is Madam Ye, she is different from the fourth young lady. The fourth young lady is kind and has a good temper. She is good in every way, not like her mother."
Shi Liyuan glanced at the two of them, very puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Lian Shi said with a stiff face, "Lord Emperor, please don't think badly of Fourth Miss Ye just because you made trouble with Madam Ye. You are already this old, and it's not easy to find a girl you like. We must get along well."
Yun Chen also nodded, "Yes, yes, don't let the fourth young lady be implicated."
Shi Liyuan was really furious! When had he ever said anything bad about Ye Wenyan? Was he quarreling with Madam Ye because she was biased against Ye Wenyan? Did these two people know how to analyze things? Could they understand the direction of events?
Just when he was feeling depressed, he heard a voice from the palace servant outside: "Your Majesty, the eldest son of the Ye family is chasing us." Shi Liyuan frowned and thought for a while, "That Ye Feiyu?"
The person outside answered: "That's right."
Shi Liyuan thought for a moment and said, "Let him come up!"
The imperial carriage stopped and Ye Feiyu was invited to get in. Yun Chen and Lian Shi took the initiative to stand outside the carriage.
As soon as Ye Feiyu came in, he bowed deeply to Shi Liyuan and said, "I am here to apologize on behalf of my mother."
Shi Liyuan looked at him for a while. He still maintained his lazy look leaning on the chair. The spacious palace carriage was surrounded by curtains. People outside could not see clearly what was going on inside, but people inside could vaguely see the people outside looking in.
He didn't say anything, and Ye Feiyu felt even more uncertain. It didn't matter that his mother had offended the Emperor. They were small people, and the Emperor would not bother with them too much after scolding them. But he was worried that this unhappiness would affect Ye Wenyan. If it caused a rift between the Emperor and Yan'er, then they would be too sorry for the child.
Ye Feiyu took a deep breath and prepared to have a good talk with the Lord Emperor in front of him. No matter what the fault was, he would take it on his own family first and try his best to get rid of Ye Wenyan.
But before he could open his mouth, Shi Liyuan suddenly spoke. He said, "I originally prepared a great gift for your family, but unfortunately, it can't be used."
Ye Feiyu was stunned, and subconsciously asked: "What gift?"
Shi Liyuan smiled, "A part of your sister's soul."
"My... a part of my sister's soul?" Ye Feiyu didn't understand what he said at first, but in a second he realized what Shi Liyuan meant. He was horrified and couldn't believe it was what he thought, so he asked again - "A part of my soul, what does it mean? What does my sister mean?"
Shi Liyuan said, "It means what it says. You are a smart person. There are some things that I don't need to explain too clearly. You should know them in your heart. Ah Yan is a child who cares about family affection. She always thinks that her family treats her very well. Her mother will make dumplings for her. Her brothers and sisters will stand by her and speak for her no matter what happens. So she always thinks about you, including giving you a shop and helping you open a clinic. She also remembers that you can paint, so that I can remember to give you gifts that please you.
She never deliberately concealed her own affairs. She avenged your family and fought for your status in the mansion, not because she felt guilty about you, but because she was kind. She promised to take good care of her family, so she must do it. So I thought, since you treat her sincerely, I don’t have to be stingy. I might as well give you another grace and good fortune, and give your family the hope of a real reunion. Unfortunately, you have disappointed me so much. Your mother shattered all the images that Ah Yan created for her in front of me. "
Ye Feiyu still didn't react, or rather, he had reacted, but he felt that the idea was too horrifying and didn't dare to think about it any further. But Shi Liyuan's words made him think about the "impossible thing", and at the same time he remembered a legend: in the past, in the spiritual world, there was a technique to collect human souls.
Is it possible...
“Your Excellency the Emperor!” His voice was trembling. He wanted to say something, but he couldn’t say anything. He could only call out: “Your Excellency the Emperor! Your Excellency the Emperor!”
Shi Liyuan was already accustomed to this kind of scene. Over the past few hundred years, countless people had lost their composure in front of him, and countless people would only call him "Emperor" respectfully and excitedly when they saw him.
He didn't care what Ye Feiyu called him, he just told her: "I once gave my life instrument Soul-breaking Bell to Ah Yan. When she first wore it, it was not yet the seventh day after Fourth Miss Ye's death, so there was still a trace of residual soul in her body. Later, the residual soul dissipated after the seventh day, but a part of it was still left on the Soul-breaking Bell. I sensed the existence of the residual soul and collected it with magic. Ah Yan didn't even know about this. This was the greatest gift that I prepared for myself when I came to propose marriage."
When he said these words, he didn't seem to be very serious, just saying them casually, as if he was telling someone else's story. But Ye Feiyu was dumbfounded, his heart almost jumped out. It was not until this moment that he realized what his mother's thought had caused their family to miss. It was not until this moment that he understood that everything in this world is really a cycle of cause and effect, giving and taking, and giving and giving.
He had long felt that there was something wrong with his mother's attitude towards Ye Lianmian. In front of that daughter, their mother always had a mentality of wanting to atone for her sins. She always felt that she owed that daughter too much, but she forgot how to make up for the debt correctly.
"Lord Emperor." His voice was choked with sobs, "Do we have no chance anymore?"
Shi Liyuan took a sip of tea and said, "You are the first one who dares to talk to me about opportunities."
"Your Majesty." Ye Feiyu begged bitterly, "Please give us another chance, Your Majesty. I will definitely advise my mother at home, and I will also teach my second sister well. Even if I can't teach her well, I promise to Your Majesty that Yan'er will never be wronged because of her. Please believe us, Your Majesty. Neither I nor our mother have any rejection or malice towards Yan'er. I really treat her as my sister, and mother also really treats her as her daughter. In fact, it's not that mother treats Yan'er and Lianmian differently, but that mother treats all children and Lianmian differently. In our family before... the old lady had the final say."
"Then it's still your mother's fault." Shi Liyuan rolled his eyes. "If what Lian Shi and the others said to me is correct, then your mother should have been the mistress of the house since she married into the Ye Mansion. Go back and ask her if she knows what it means to be the mistress of the house. Even with the old lady around, the mistress of the house can't be bullied like this. Don't tell me about the right and wrong of your family, and don't talk about the old lady's partiality. If Mu Qianqiu herself is courageous and responsible, no matter how partial the old lady is, she can't be biased to that extent. If Mu Qianqiu is confident enough, even your father would not dare to take a child away!
By the way, I also heard that she took advantage of Ah Yan's disturbance in the Princess's Mansion to cancel her eldest daughter's marriage. This matter was handled quite efficiently. After all, she was more concerned about her biological daughter. "When he said this, he leaned forward and said, "But I can't figure it out. The former Fourth Miss Ye was also her biological daughter. On the second day of the twelfth lunar month, did the old lady of the Ye family and the second house tie you up or put a knife to your neck? Your daughter was bullied to death, and she was still dreaming in the mansion?"
Ye Feiyu was speechless after being asked this question. In fact, he had thought about the same question before. He even recalled more than once what went wrong on the second day of the twelfth lunar month that led to such a thing happening.
Was it the general's mansion that didn't seem to be happy in the morning? Or was it the maids who rushed into the East Courtyard and took away their things?
Or the lock that sealed Qingliangyuan? And the night that was dodging all day?
But no matter which link went wrong, their mother's performance on that day was so disappointing...
