Wei Guogong chased into the house, and she had already entered the inner room and closed the door.

Wei Guogong hurriedly said in front of the door: "If you don't know me, how can you call me an adult!" ”

There was no response inside.

Wei Guogong took a deep breath, and his tone was extremely solemn: "Ah Hao, I have been looking for you for twenty-two years, and I even thought you were ......"

A complaining voice came from inside the door: "Qin Zhen, who the adults are looking for, has gone with her deceased husband twenty-two years ago, and this one who lives in the world is just a lonely old woman." ”

"Don't you have a son?"

"I don't have a son, and the Ye family has long been extinct." Ye Mu said very decisively.

"Ah Hao, no matter how long it has become, no matter what you have become, I will make up for you." Wei Guogong said happily, "It's great to find you, I'll send someone to take you back to the Gongfu." ”

"Lord Guogong, you and I haven't seen each other for twenty-two years, it doesn't mean that I have forgotten everything after twenty-two years!"

Wei Guogong's heart tightened, and the smile on his face also dispersed, and he sighed: "Yes, I was selfish back then, and I didn't intercede for General Ye, but General Ye collaborated with the enemy, and even if I pleaded, it would be useless." ”

"You go, I won't see you, besides, I can't see you......"

Wei Guogong persuaded hard: "Ah Zhen, I see that you are not in good health, you go back with me, I will ask the imperial doctor to come and treat you, I can see that you have suffered a lot in the past 22 years, and I will let you enjoy the glory in the second half of your life." ”

"I'm not rare!"

Ye Mu was still sick, even if she tried her best to shout this sentence, her voice was very weak, but it shocked the listener's heart.

Wei Guoping calmed down and remembered that it was not an accident that their old friend reunited, he followed Mei Xiaoren here to see her, could it be that Mei Xiaoren came here to visit her?

He remembered that Ah Zhen had a son who should be exactly twenty-two years old this year, and Mei Xiaoren was only nineteen.

Wei Guogong shook his head, they couldn't be mother and son, but he suddenly remembered another one - Ye Zhi beside Mei Xiaoren!

"Ah Zhen, the posthumous son you gave birth to back then can be called Ye Zhi?"

As soon as the words fell, the door suddenly opened, and Mother Ye stood in front of the door, frowning, "The grievances of the previous generation have nothing to do with the child, if you dare to know what to do to Ye, I will not let you go!" ”

Wei Guogong hurriedly explained: "Ah Hao, you misunderstood, I want to make up for your mother and son before it's too late, how can I harm you." He was relieved and said with a smile, "You took him back to the capital, this is the opportunity that God gave me, and I will let you see my sincerity." ”

Mother Ye was stunned: "Don't look for my son, I have been hiding from him for twenty-two years, and I don't want him to know anything!" ”

There was no echo in her ears, only the sound of footsteps in the distance.

Seongnam Mae House.

Mei Xiaoren and Ye Zhi played chess in the courtyard after they came back, and her chess skills were on par with Ye Zhi, but Ye Zhi always secretly let her, so that Lao Ye had followed her for so many years and never won a game of chess.

At this time, Ye Zhi was playing chess with her, with a smile on his face, and he was no longer worried about her.

When they first returned, her yamen's subordinates came to tell her that several capable officials in the yamen had taken leave and gone home after learning that the prime minister was going to test whether Tao Fuyin could take charge on his own.

Tao Fu Yin did not allow it, so they went to the scribe's department for various reasons, asking the ministry for leave, such as what son marries, daughter marries, the old lady has a birthday, and the little wife gives birth to a child...... Without exception, they all got the consent of the officials, which gave Tao Fu Yin a headache.

Mei Xiaoren then remembered a sentence, she felt that this was called "those who have attained the Tao have more help, and those who have lost the Tao have little help".

Tao Fu Yin was strict, and everyone was fed up with his anger, but they had to swallow their anger because he was Fu Yin. Now when they learned that this governor might be forced to return to his hometown, they added fuel to the fire and made matters worse, attacking him in groups, similar to a wall falling down and everyone pushing it.

It seems that her master pinched Old Man Tao's unpopularity, and made a special trip to dig a pit to make Old Man Tao jump in willingly, and this is Old Man Tao's own sin, and he can't blame others.

Mei Xiaoren and Ye Zhi were playing chess vigorously, and the family reported that Wei Guogong was coming. Mei Xiaoren was about to go out to greet him, but saw that Wei Guogong had already walked into the courtyard by himself

"Lord Guogong." Mei Xiaoren and Ye Zhiyi saluted together.

"No need to be polite, I just passed by, thinking that this is your mansion, so I came in and had a look." Wei Guogong sat down at the stone table and beckoned the two of them to sit down as well.

Mei Xiaoren thought that Wei Guogong was going to ask her about being suspended, but Wei Guogong looked at Ye Zhi and asked her, "How old is this friend of yours this year?" ”

"Ye knows that he has two out of ten this year."

Wei Guogong nodded, and asked Ye Zhi again: "Have you ever thought about becoming an official in the court?" ”

Ye Zhi was stunned for a moment, and turned his eyes to look at Mei Xiaoren. Mei Xiaoren hurriedly asked for him: "Can Lord Guogong let Ye Zhi also enter the court as an official?" ”

"It's okay, I see that you are doing things well, and the people who want to come to your side will not be bad." Wei Guogong smiled and said, "I'm afraid he won't want to." ”

Mei Xiaoren glanced at Ye Zhi, and Ye Zhi hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Go back to the adult, the little one is willing." ”

"Okay, tomorrow you come to my house, and I will take you to meet a few adults."

Mei Xiaoren didn't know why Wei Guogong suddenly remembered Ye Zhi, but it had always been her wish to let Ye Zhi enter the court as an official, and Ye Zhi didn't say it, but in her heart, she actually looked forward to it as much as her.

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Zhi came to the Wei Mansion alone according to yesterday's agreement. Wei Guogong not only asked the housekeeper to come out to greet him, but also took him to the back garden to talk.

In the Meilin Warm Pavilion, Wei Guogong asked Ye Zhi to sit on the couch with him, and a low table was separated between them, with two fragrant teas on it.

Ye Zhi had doubts in his heart all the way, and after coming here, he was even more puzzled.

Didn't Wei Guogong say that he wanted to introduce him to a few adults? But there was no one else here except him and Wei Guogong.

"The prince of the country let the small one come is ......"

"In front of me, you don't have to call yourself small." Wei Guogong looked at him, his expression became more and more solemn, and he sighed, "Twenty-two years, when I first saw you, you had just been born and were held in your mother's arms. ”

Ye Zhi was stunned for a moment, and gradually frowned again, a little unable to understand Wei Guogong's words.

"Ye Zhi, do you know who your father is and who your mother is?"

Ye Zhi replied: "I only have a mother, not a father." ”

"Yesterday, I went to the outskirts of the city to seek medical treatment, and I met your mother by chance, and I knew that she took you back to the capital."

"Lord Guogong knows my father?" Ye Zhi was amazed.

"Your maternal grandfather was a scholar, your mother was from a famous family, we knew each other when we were young, and your father ......," Wei Guogong paused before speaking, "Your father is Ye Huai, the general of Zhenguo, and his military exploits are even more prominent than today's General Zhu." ”
