213 The Brother's Suffering
In fact, as for the title, my father did not limit us, but Chang Wu's father-in-law was careful, and he had been in the palace for decades, so he could propose it like this, naturally for the sake of the overall situation, so I changed the title with a smile: "Father." ”
When my father saw me call me so, he smiled even more with relief, and then he looked at his brother again, and the brother hurriedly changed his title: "Father." ”
Seeing this, Yan Shao took the initiative to step forward and salute: "That little son-in-law will also be stained, and I will call you my father in the future!" ”
The father was overjoyed, and laughed: "Good, good, good!" ”
"I just saw my father's face depressed, but something unpleasant?"
I stood behind him, clenched my fist and gently tapped his shoulder, but my father hurriedly stopped, "No, you are a person with body now, you can't be tired, come, sit next to my father." ”
Father-in-law Chang Wu hurriedly moved the chair and asked me to sit next to my father, who took my hand and said: "In the end, my daughter is careful, hey, Ashao, Yun'er, you come and see, this is the bad debt left by them in the first ten years of government management, but it is a pity that I have been tossed by them for a hundred years of the dynasty, and the treasury has been empty. ”
Yan Shao and his brother stood on the side of their father on the left and right, and the father gave each of them a scroll, Yan Shao just glanced at it in his hand, then threw it to his brother, and said to his brother gloatingly: "The time to test you has come, this mess is enough for you, a rookie novice, to have a headache for a while." ”
"Aren't you going to stay here for a year?" The elder brother threw the scroll back to Yan Shao.
“……”
"For a year, you want to spend a penny, eat and drink here, how can you make a contribution, right?"
My brother looked leisurely, squinted at Yan Shao, and then winked at me, "Lingyi, this is a mother's family matter, you can't blindly favor your husband." ”
"Ling Yi, you just said that I have a good calculation, look at it, who is the biggest winner?" Yan Shao held my shoulders and avenged me with a look of grievance.
I knocked off his hand and said with a smile: "Eat other people's soft mouth, take other people's short hands, now that I am married to you, you still have to pay some labor fees, otherwise, I can't stay in my mother's house to eat and drink in peace." ”
"The lady has spoken, and the husband can only obey the order." Yan Shao respectfully bowed to me and said, "For my husband, I will definitely serve my uncle and brother-in-law, just let go of eating and drinking." ”
"Neither of you falls behind the other, one is better than the other." Infected by us, my father was in a good mood and even joked with us.
The palace and Chang Wu's father-in-law couldn't help laughing, my father looked at my brother and then at Yan Shao, and once again took my hand and said: "With you, Xiheng's century-old foundation is still hopeful after all, Ashao, my father has wasted too much time, and now although he has just woken up from a big dream, he has been dying, Yun'er has been living in the people for many years, and has not been involved in political affairs, after all, he is immature, and his father can only trust you, and he must support him with his heart." ”
Yan Shao walked to his father, bowed and saluted, and said without humility or arrogance: "Father rest assured, Yan Shao should do his best, but the Xiheng royal family is not Dajin, although I am a concubine, but I am the king of Dajin, my special relative is not suitable to participate in politics directly, I can only guide Wentian on the side, so, many matters still have to be at the helm of the father, now, it is not the time for you to serve the old man and let go." ”
Father nodded, and said, "What you say is reasonable, I still have to hold out until the day when Yun'er can stand alone." ”
I smiled at Yan Shao with gratitude, Yan Shao and I have the same heart, he knows that I am grateful for his good intentions, he actually doesn't want my father to give up on himself too early.
First, it is indeed for the sake of his brother, and secondly, if according to his father's current state, if there is nothing he can rely on to support him, he is afraid that he will fall prematurely, and his life will be in a withered state.
The elder brother bowed his head on the side and said, "Yun'er is ashamed." ”
"Why are you ashamed? If you had been immersed in this atmosphere since childhood, with your qualifications, my father would have been able to enjoy his life in peace. ”
The father looked at his brother's eyes, still showing pride and pride, he stood up with one hand on the dragon case, and his originally tall and strong body had a slightly hunched state.
He patted his brother on the shoulder and said, "Also, you see that your sister has already married and is about to become a mother, so your father is already thinking about your marriage, do you have a favorite girl?" ”
At this moment, needless to say, we all thought of the master in our hearts, but the final identity of the master has proved to the elder brother that he can't even keep the last little thought.
"Child......" replied the elder brother after a moment's hesitation, "I don't like the girl." ”
"Then your father will take care of your marriage?" The father carefully consulted the brother's meaning, and saw that there was no joy on the brother's face, and said, "As the future queen of Xiheng, regardless of appearance, talent, character connotation, family background and knowledge, the father will strictly check for you, and the final selection will be made by you, how about it?" ”
"Okay." The elder brother smiled reluctantly and said no more.
After dinner in the Mingde Palace, Yan Shao and I quietly followed behind my brother and accompanied him.
But he really didn't seem to be happy anymore, and his eyes weren't as focused and radiant as they had been, for the people of his faith depended on...... It's really going to "leave" him.
"Wen Tian," Yan Shao cleared his throat and said, "I once advised you to fight, but now I want to persuade you to give up, I know it's cruel, but it seems that your tomorrow is not only about children, she is not the person you should chase after all." ”
"I know that my heart is clearer than any of you, in fact, I never thought of having her, and I also recognized that the return path is different, so I'm okay, because I've been mentally prepared."
"Brother......" I wanted to say but stopped, my brother stopped, turned around leisurely in the twilight streamer, he smiled at me, the smile was a little far-fetched, I also laughed, "We wait for you." ”
"Okay." He replied to me, and then I saw a small light spill from under his eyes, and he turned and strode forward, and the night overwhelmed him in an instant.
Yan Shao and I faced each other, Yan Shao gently pinched my face and said: "After life and death, through love and suffering, his life can really turn the page and have a new beginning, so you don't need to worry, when he really lets go, he will be invulnerable." ”
