Ling Yun was depressed during the period of recuperation in the Hou Ye's Mansion, and went out of the back garden to relax one day out of boredom, but saw He Yuting stepping on the fallen leaves all over the ground and slowly walked over.

Ling Yun thought about the estrangement between him and him in the past, and didn't want to pay attention to him, turned around and left, but heard He Yuting call him from behind: "Zhichao......"

Ling Yun raised his sword eyebrows lightly and stood indifferently.

He Yuting's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Are you still angry with me about what happened that day?" ”

Ling Yun pursed his lips, his cheeks bulged, and he turned his face away with some negative anger, but he didn't speak.

Looking at Ling Yun's almost angry appearance, He Yuting flattened his mouth slightly, and suddenly wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh.

He couldn't help but secretly think in his heart: It turns out that Ling Yun, who has always been calm and calm, has a strong personality when he also makes such a childish gesture!

In fact, in this world, there is no such thing as a person who is always strong; And those so-called strongness are just temporarily hiding their vulnerability and not showing it in front of others. Just like Ling Yun standing in front of him, including himself.

Thinking about this, He Yuting's once hard heart did not feel soft, and his eyes felt sour, and he suddenly felt like crying......

He pondered for a long time, and finally slowly spoke, "If that's the case, Zhichao, I think you must have misunderstood what I meant." Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, how can parents in the world not love their children, how can they not recognize their own flesh and blood?

"Since the last time I was in the Huanyun Pavilion of the Junma Mansion, I saw that talisman and knew your background; How many days and nights, I have been unable to sleep at night - I am in pain, hesitating, I regret even more, regret why I didn't recognize you at that time!

"Providence is so, Creation has finally given me another chance to make amends, and finally let you return to my side again. A few days ago, your Aunt Changqing, no, now she said that it should be your mother, proposed to pass you as a son, do you know why I objected, because you were originally my biological son He Yuting, and you were originally the upright son of my Hou Yefu, why should I judge you as a stepson! ”

Looking at his radiant emotions and listening to his impassioned statement, Ling Yun was stunned for a while.

He didn't seem to understand what he meant, a pair of wet misty eyes looked at him without blinking, and a thin layer of mist was enveloped in his eyes, and he said in a trembling voice: "What you said is ...... Really? ……”

The corners of He Yuting's eyes curved slightly, and he said resolutely: "Of course! In two days, I will choose a good day and an auspicious day to feast on the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and I will also specially invite the prince of Jinling, Lord Ding, and Lord Lu; By the way, and my Huanyu niece-

"I want to announce this matter to them in public, and I want everyone in the world to know that you are the real eldest prince of the Hou Ye Mansion, and you are the son of my He Yuting who has been separated for many years and finally reunited after ups and downs!"

Ling Yun's heart twitched unconsciously, and blurted out: "What, you still want to invite Huanyu and Master Lu?" ”

He Yuting raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Yes! That's a lot of fun! You and Huanyu have been husband and wife for so many years, and you didn't know that you two were still cousins! When you and Huanyu get back together, your cousins recognize each other, this is really a kiss, a joy and a joy! ”

Ling Yun's originally peaceful face slowly sank, he bit his lip tightly, his throat shook like swallowing, as if he had something to say, but after several restraints and forbearance, he finally didn't say anything.

He Yuting probably didn't care about Ling Yun's abnormal demeanor, he was only immersed in the self-centered emotional world, and said to himself: "As for Lu Wenzheng, I want to give him some color!" My son has followed him for so many years, he has been loyal to him, and he has made so many great contributions from birth to death, but I didn't expect him to treat you like this in the end!

"On the surface, I will regard you as a cronie and nephew, a right-hand man; In fact, it is duplicitous, and the appearance is detached, and finally seeing that you are frustrated and lonely and have no use value, they will kick you away mercilessly! Hmph, this Lu Wenzheng is really a sanctimonious hypocrite! ”

The hand on Ling Yun's side slowly clenched into a fist; He took a deep breath and suddenly said, "Lord He, there shouldn't be a third person who knows about this matter except for you and me, right?" ”

He Yuting was stunned for a moment, "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

Ling Yun said: "That's no better. Master Ho just said nothing, and I didn't hear anything. ”

"Oh? Why? ”

Ling Yun said expressionlessly: "The Tao is different, and it is not conspiratory. ”

"You...... What does this mean? ”

Lingyun said: "Lord Lu treats me like a mountain, and I am rebuilt with kindness; I have always regarded him as my father, brother and mentor. Although so many things happened in the house a few days ago, and I had to leave him for various reasons, I was also at fault for holding him responsible!

"Until now, not only did I not dare to hold the slightest grudge against him, but I still respected him very much. Therefore, I do not allow anyone to say anything bad about him in front of me, including Lord Ho. ”

He Yuting's eyes trembled violently, and he said in a deep voice: "So, in your mind, Lu Wenzheng's status is more important than your father?" ”

Ling Yun felt that his head was beginning to ache faintly; He put his hand on his forehead and said in a deep voice: "Actually, this is not a concept at all, there is no comparison; So please don't compare them together, is that okay? ”

He Yuting's eyes shrank suddenly, "What do you mean?" ”

Looking at the other party's aggressive eyes, Ling Yun was forced to be helpless, so he had to say: "The one who gave birth to me, parents; Those who know me, Lord Lu also. The nurturing grace of parents is naturally higher than the sky; But Lord Lu's kindness is also as heavy as a mountain, and I will never forget it! ”

He Yuting stared at him for a long time with scarlet eyes, and suddenly laughed: "Okay, good!" is worthy of being my son, he is a good person to speak, and he can be described as a drip! …… What about Lord Huanyu, what are your plans? ”

A resolute look flashed in Ling Yun's clear eyes, and he said categorically: "It is difficult to break the mirror, it is difficult to collect the water, and I will never change the things that have been decided." ”

He Yuting's eyebrows furrowed, almost twisted into a dead knot; He pondered for a long time, and finally slowly opened his mouth, "Zhichao, you listen to me." Although there are some contradictions between you and Huanyu, how can a long spoon not touch the edge of the pot when the young couple live together? The husband and wife quarreled at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed, and they tolerated each other and passed.

"What's more—" Speaking of this, He Yuting paused for a moment, a pair of deep eyes flashed with a divine light, "The matter between you and Huanyu is not just a matter between the two of you, there are too many involved, and it can even be said that it affects the whole body!"

"And you are no longer the ignorant teenager who only acted on his will, you can't be immersed in pure love and hatred all day long and can't extricate yourself, you have wasted the years, and you are even more depressed.

"You know, in your life, these so-called love-hate feelings are not the only ones; In fact, you have a lot more important things to do! So Zhichao, for the sake of the overall situation, I advise you to reconsider this relationship with Huanyu. ”

Ling Yun felt as if his mind was a mass of scorching coal, constantly bursting under the lid of the furnace, painful and tormenting; He hung his head weakly and said dumbly: "Actually, I haven't considered what you said; I don't want things to be the way they are! At the beginning, I really wanted to be able to live with her in peace, peace and smoothness, and grow old together.

"But sometimes I really can't help myself, and I am also caught up in all kinds of complicated and chaotic situations, helpless and passive, things have come to this point, I have no choice......"

He Yuting only felt as if he was pressed by an invisible boulder in his heart, and he couldn't breathe, his cold eyes narrowed slightly, and he hissed: "Why? ”

Ling Yun's melancholy eyes flashed with a faint wave, and he sighed lightly: "Some things can't be explained clearly in just a few words; And what happened between me and her, you won't understand either......

"The development between me and her has not happened overnight; In short, everything is a foregone conclusion, and there is no room for maneuver anymore, so Lord He, please don't bother to persuade anything in vain......"

"You! ......" Looking at Ling Yun's indifferent and resolute expression, He Yuting was so angry that he trembled, thinking: It seems that this bastard's stubborn temper has come up again; Say a thousand things and ten thousand, why do you think he is so unenlightened? In vain, I just enlightened him so much, and he actually took it as the wind in his ears, I was really angry......

He felt a sense of frustration that he had never felt before.

Thinking about him He Yuting, whether it is officialdom or family marriage, he has been proud of the spring breeze for many years, and he is exquisite; Why is it that when it comes to this son, he is so awkward and tangled, frustrated and powerless?

At that moment, he only felt the anger and blood rise in his heart; Annoyed and angry, he raised his hand, and fell down on Ling Yun's face without saying anything!

Looking at He Yuting's somewhat hatred of iron and steel, Ling Yun felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart; He silently closed his eyes, just waiting for the other party's thunderous fury, fierce slap to fall.

Facing Ling Yun's disheartened appearance, He Yuting only felt that his heart twitched painfully, his hand stagnated in mid-air, and for some reason he couldn't fall down.

He withdrew his hand weakly and said dejectedly: "Zhichao, I really don't understand, why are you always so stubborn?" On the one hand, there are high-ranking officials, glory and wealth; On the one hand, there is displacement, and there is no return - between the two, even a fool knows how to choose, how can such a smart person as you be so confused at this time? ”

Ling Yun turned his face away, but did not speak.

He Yuting said: "Even if my father's request is a bit excessive for you, you are unwilling to accept it; But what about your mother, have you ever put yourself in her shoes?

"Ever since she was separated from you twenty-five years ago, she has been depressed and lamenting all night; For many years, she has been thinking about it day and night, looking forward to being reunited with her own son all the time, and now that you have finally come to her side, can you bear not to recognize her? Can you be ruthless enough to hurt the heart of a mother's loving son? ”

Ling Yun tilted his head slightly, closed his eyes and tried to calm the turbulence and struggle in his heart; When he opened his eyes again, he returned to his usual calm, and Mu Ran said, "Don't talk about it......" He turned around and staggered forward a little with his feet.

He Yuting stared blankly at his distant back, sighed heavily, and shook his head helplessly......
