Chapter 1253: The eldest son
All of this has to be memorized. ”
Ye Jing took the book her brother gave her, and there were all kinds of doubts in her heart, such as how her brother suddenly knew so much about medicine, such as why her brother knew so much about the affairs of the woman's house, and the words she wanted to ask were surrounded by her mouth for a while, but she still didn't ask.
"Don't let anyone know about this book but you, you know?" Ye Qiu instructed uneasily, "If there is anything I need in the future, I will send someone to let me buy it, if I am not in the capital, then I will also leave you a steward." ”
"Why is my brother not in the capital?" Ye Jing was keenly aware of a hint of an unusual atmosphere.
"Do you know why my brother has been in poor health for so many years? Do you know why my brother stopped participating in the imperial examination since he was admitted to Xiucai two years ago? ”
Ye Jing said quietly and forbearingly: "It's my mother." ”
"Yes, my mother will not allow me to be better than my second brother, and if I continue to participate in the scientific examination, my mother will not let me go."
"Isn't there still a father? We can tell my father, my father will definitely be able to protect my brother. Ye Jing said anxiously for Ye Qiu's future.
Ye Qiu sighed helplessly: "Father can protect me, but what about my aunt?" ”
Ye Jing was stunned for a moment, and then stopped talking, because their mother-in-law had thousands of ways to torture her mother, and they had nothing to do.
"So I can't continue to participate in the scientific examination, if I want to become famous, if I want to have the power to protect you and my aunt, I can only go on the road of joining the army."
"But brother, your body ...... No, I can't let you take risks with my brother, it's okay, with this poison Bible given by my brother, my aunt and I will be fine, brother, don't take risks. Ye Jing persuaded urgently.
"It's not a risk, I have my own way of protecting myself." Ye Qiu comforted her and said.
But Ye Jing didn't listen to anything, and her eyes were about to turn red: "No, I resolutely don't allow you to do such a stupid thing, brother, don't you know the danger of the battlefield?" The book says that one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, I don't want my brother to risk his life, not to mention that your body doesn't allow it at all, brother, and you haven't practiced martial arts since you were a child, how can you be the opponent of those enemies? ”
"It's because I haven't practiced martial arts since I was a child, so my grandmother may allow me to join the army." Ye Qiu patiently explained to Ye Jing, "You have to believe your brother, since your brother can find you this poison Bible, he naturally has a way to protect himself." ”
"Brother, don't lie to me." Ye Jing was still skeptical.
"Of course it's not a lie, and my brother is not just for you and my aunt, and my brother doesn't want to be manipulated by his mother for the rest of his life, and he doesn't want to marry a woman he doesn't like, and then live his life in a nest."
"That brother wants to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, he will put his life first and not take risks easily."
"Don't worry, my brother doesn't want to die."
After the two brothers and sisters agreed with each other, they began to study the knowledge in the book seriously, Ye Qiu explained every page, Ye Jing felt incredible, before that, she never knew that there were so many things that were mutually restrictive, and she didn't know that sometimes some inconspicuous weeds could save lives, and what she didn't know was that it wasn't that the more expensive the medicinal herbs, the better.
"The people around us are all arranged by our mother-in-law, if you don't have enough confidence to control them, don't expose them easily, you must know it in your own heart, and the knowledge in this book is not completely summarized in all the means, so you can't take it lightly."
"Brother, I understand, if we want to live in this capital without shelter, we must be careful." Ye Jing said in a calm tone.
But Ye Qiu was distressed, obviously she was only a fifteen-year-old child, but she had to worry about her life, all of this was just that she didn't have a good family background, and she didn't have a father who defended her wholeheartedly.
Ye Qiu can't comment on his father in this life, because men in this era are like this, they are born with a lot more power than women, especially when Ye Sheng was young, he lived in a prosperous family, and the title gradually fell into loneliness when it came to his generation, so he was unwilling, and he just wanted to bring the Ye family back to its peak.
But how easy is that? Not to mention that people go to tea and cool, even if you yourself don't have the ability of your ancestors, in the early years, Ye Sheng was still delusional about showing his ambitions with his own strength, but gradually his morale was worn out by various things, so he put the idea on the next generation.
At the beginning, he valued Ye Qiu the most, but the more he valued it, the more Ye Qiu was jealous of his mother-in-law, and gradually his body collapsed for various reasons.
Then Ye Siqi was spoiled later, and the twins born by the fourth aunt were too young, looking at the two outstanding daughters, Ye Sheng had a measure in his heart.
So not to mention Ye Jing's concubine, even the concubine Ye Sihui doesn't have much autonomy, and their marriage has long become a bargaining chip for Ye Sheng to fight for power and profit.
Because the ancestors of the Ye family also supported orthodoxy to obtain the title, so Ye Sheng took the most fancy to Prince Kang, who was born in the eldest child, in order to catch the line of Prince Kang, he wasted a lot of effort, and wanted his daughter to marry Prince Kang as his side wife, but who knew that his daughter was not happy after she woke up with a high fever.
He was afraid that sending a disobedient concubine to the past would not only fail to befriend Prince Kang, but would also make enemies, so he finally had to send his concubine to be a concubine.
The concubine's grade is not as high as that of the side lady, but he has no choice.
So for the sake of his wife, Ye Sheng can take a step back, but Ye Jing, who is a concubine, is not qualified to resist, if she doesn't comply, there is only one dead word waiting for their aunt.
In this feudal era, Ye Qiu and Ye Jing were helpless, they could only protect themselves as much as possible before they had enough power.
"She's messing around, she refused to marry Prince Kang before, and now she says that she admires Prince An, does she think that all the princes and grandsons of the world can let her choose?" In the main courtyard, Ye Sheng slapped the table violently, and glared at Li with a serious look in his eyes.
Even after getting along for many years, Li is still a little scared of her husband, mainly because she knows from her heart that her husband has no heart, and he can do anything for the sake of power.
Li Shi quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "Prince An is the most favored prince of the Holy Lord, don't you have a better chance of winning if we marry Sister Hui?" ”
"How can you say that Prince Kang is orthodox and Prince Min is the most powerful? What is a favor? Ye Sheng said disdainfully, thinking that the Li family was a woman's knowledge.
Li was also angry, and couldn't help but retort loudly: "But this world is the holy world after all!" ”
