Chapter 684: Arrangements before leaving
"So what are your ambitions, brother?" The one who asked the question was Ye Qingtong.
Ye Feiyu smiled and said, "Maybe one day I can travel all over the mountains and rivers and paint all over the mountains and rivers." At this point, he waved his hand and smiled again, "I am a family man and have never thought about leaving home, so traveling all over the mountains and rivers is something I am afraid I will never have the chance to do in this life. There is one thing I haven't told you. I have already asked the emperor for an assignment at the Imperial College and will take up the position tomorrow."
People were stunned when they heard this, and Lian Ye Wenyan asked him, "When did you ask the emperor for the position?"
Ye Feiyu said, "At the palace banquet yesterday, I was annoyed by those ladies and girls, so I walked away to get some fresh air. The emperor happened to leave his seat, so I told him about this. I have to thank you, fourth sister. If it weren't for you, fourth sister, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to enter a place like the Imperial College even though I'm the eldest son of a first-rank general's mansion."
Ye Wenyan waved his hand quickly, "Brother, you are being polite again. I really don't have any dignity in this matter. This world belongs to the country, and places like the Imperial Academy are responsible for the future of the royal family. So if you don't have real talent and knowledge, the emperor would not have agreed. And since he agreed, it means he recognizes your knowledge."
Ye Feiyu smiled and said, "It's not academic. I just brought a painting with me to show the emperor, and the emperor nodded after seeing it. So I mainly teach calligraphy and painting in the Imperial Academy. I hope that in the future there will be royal relatives and nobles willing to study under me."
At this point, he coughed twice, "We've strayed off topic. Let's continue talking about family matters. Qingtong, Yan'er was right just now. You have to make a plan. It's not that I don't want you to enjoy life as a second young lady, but we have all had so much experience, and we all know that the days in the past may seem glamorous and comfortable on the surface, but in fact, they are the most exhausting. People are easily trapped in this small world like a frog in a well, with short-sightedness and shallow knowledge.
So I hope you can be different from before and live a new life. Let's say goodbye to the past together. From now on, it's a new life. We must live differently from before. The First-rank General's Mansion can no longer hold us back!"
Ye Qingtong gave him a smile, "Brother, I understand. Don't worry, I won't be the same as before. Give me some time. I want to spend more time with mom. Once I have some time to relax, I will start a new life."
Ye Feiyu nodded, "Okay, you should spend more time with your mother. Don't worry, our family can afford a little sister."
Ye Qingtong lowered her head, looking a little embarrassed, but no one knew that she was actually feeling very sad.
The feeling that she would have to give her life back to Ye Wenyan sooner or later came back. Although she had a new body now, she always felt that she and Ye Wenyan were still the same person. Even though Ye Wenyan's body no longer had her emotions and reactions, she still had a strong feeling that her life was only temporary and would eventually return to dust.
So she didn't want to think about the future, and didn't know what she should do.
Ye Wenyan held her hand without saying anything, but conveyed a kind of power.
Ye Qingtong turned her head and smiled at her, and she felt a lot better all of a sudden.
Ye Feiyu was already talking to Ye Feizhou. He asked, "Fei Zhou, what are your plans?" In fact, he really wanted to add, "Don't tell me you are going to Renwang Palace. That is not a serious plan." But he didn't say it in the end.
After hearing his question, Ye Feizhou turned to look at Ye Wenyan, and after looking at her for a while, he said, "I don't have any plans. I can survive in the capital or in the martial arts world. Maybe I can do something to help my fourth sister."
Ye Wenyan shook her head, "You can't help me with what I want to do. No one can help me. Besides, second brother, if you don't know what you can do, then the test in the palace yesterday will be in vain. - And you!" She pinched Ye Qingtong again, "Don't think about those useless things, cheer up, and keep an eye on this city for me until I come back!"
Having said this, everyone looked at her, and Ye Chulian wiped away her tears, which made Ye Wenyan feel a little helpless.
"Don't be like this. I feel uncomfortable when you suddenly look at me like this."
"If you really feel bad, don't leave. Why bother?" Ye Qingtong rolled her eyes at her. "How important is it that you have to leave?"
She smiled, "It's my own business, and it's also between Shi Liyuan and I. Maybe in the future it may be the whole world's business, so I have to go. But I can promise that I'm only leaving temporarily, not that I won't come back. This is my home. Big brother, when you divide up the courtyard in the East House this time, you have to give my courtyard a nice name, you must not forget it!"
Ye Feiyu nodded, "Don't worry, I won't forget it. The small courtyard where you lived in the general's mansion has no name until now. I feel bad every time I think of this. Don't worry this time, there will definitely be one, but don't think the name I gave is not good."
"I like whatever name my brother gives me." She squinted at Ye Feiyu like a little child.
Ye Feiyu's eyes suddenly became wet and he quickly turned his head away and wiped the tears on his face.
Ye Wenyan stood up, walked to the middle and bowed to Mu earnestly, then said: "Thank you mother for your care over the past six months, thank you mother for treating me as your own child and loving me all the time. Although there were many unpleasant things because of Ye Lianmian, they are all in the past, and I can understand you. Put yourself in your shoes, you can still do that after knowing some things, which is very good. I didn't have more extravagant expectations, so I have never been disappointed in you.
I still say that I have to leave temporarily this time for something, which may take a few months at the fastest, a year or two at the slowest, or even three to five years. I can't guarantee how long I can come back, so I am anxious to finish all the things I need to deal with before I leave. Even if I leave this time, I will go to Xiushan County first to deal with the Jiang family's affairs.
As for the capital, I have made all the arrangements I can. If you encounter any difficulties when I am not at home, you can go to the prefect of Lin'an, and he will do his best to help you. You can also go to Yanhua Palace for help, and the palace servants there will also work for the Ye family.
I will leave Nanny Ji here so that mother can discuss any important matters at home with her.
In addition, there are many people in Beijing who will appreciate our family's kindness and will consider me as the empress, including the emperor. In short, as long as the Ye family does not do anything that harms the world, they can continue to look down on Lin'an City with pride.
But there are some things that I can't arrange, such as the mess left by father, which you can only deal with by yourselves. If you really can't handle it, stay in the mansion and wait for me to come back.
Mother, there is only one last thing left to do before you leave..."
