Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Not only has it never wavered, but it has even become more determined because of this incident.

He couldn't imagine that if it was the little girl in front of him who was carried back today, whether he would still be able to persist until those wounds were dealt with.

"The situation in Yanjing City is becoming more and more tense and is on the verge of breaking out. Now that the Chen family is being elevated, the emperor and the princes each have their own plans, and the Chen family is destined to be in a dilemma. Chen Jiahui cannot support the wall, Chen Yinuo is an honest man, and Chen This group of juniors in our family cannot withstand such pressure. If you stay here, it will be you who will be in trouble, so why bother?"

Ji Wuyan sighed softly and persuaded, "Besides, your Majesty's illness is also a hidden danger. If you can't cure it, you will be blamed. If you cure it, you will offend the other party. You even snooped into the secrets of the royal family. There is no danger of being silenced. Old man... you should go back."

Ji Wuyan rarely persuaded people with such earnest words and clear intentions. Many times, she was always used to saying half of the words and hiding the other half.

She said that if this is the case, even if others don't want to, there is no need to refuse outright, just pretend that they don't understand and just walk down the stairs.

In words, he had already given the other party the steps.

Not this time.

Mr. Chen sighed lightly, "Those who can see through have already seen through. There are so many dilemmas." It's just to protect this person's safety. For this, even if he gives up, This useless life is okay.

However, he did not say these words.

He also didn't tell Ji Wuyan that he had made up his mind to come here before, and he was already prepared to be recognized and prepared not to go back.This life has been full of twists and turns, but to be able to have such an opportunity in the second half of my life is considered God's mercy and it's worth it.

"Father..."

"Since he doesn't want to leave, why do you have to force him to do something difficult?"

Ji Wuyan still wanted to persuade him, but he saw the old lady walking from the end of the corridor with a cane. She looked at the cane and was stunned, "What are you...?" In the past two years, my grandmother's legs and feet had some problems. It's inconvenient, but she is stubborn and disobeys her old age. She refuses to use crutches no matter what. She said that carrying such a useless thing makes it look like she is dying. Her brother even gave him the dragon-headed crutches of a certain princess in the past few dynasties. She found it, but she just didn’t need it.

Very stubborn.

What's in my hand now...isn't it?
"Huh? Oh, you mean this crutch?" The old lady raised the crutch in her hand and laughed, "I heard from your brother that this was the dragon-headed crutch given to the princess of a certain dynasty in history by the emperor after she rescued her. ...I don’t know if it’s true or not, but when you go out, you always have a few things that look very intimidating, right?”

After saying that, he nodded slightly to Mr. Chen and said, "Sir, don't argue with her about all these things. Children's families don't understand the concerns of older people like us. It's just Chaoyun's side. Sir, please bear with me..."

Mr. Chen nodded and said hello and went down.Ji Wuyan frowned and looked at it, and accidentally agreed, "Grandma, you don't know..."

The crutches hit the ground "dong dong", and the old lady said with a tigerish face, "I don't know what? I don't know that the Chen family is in Yanjing City? I don't know that they want to take Chen Song back to the Chen family? I don't know that the emperor is ill Are all the imperial doctors at a loss what to do? Still don’t know that rumors about Chen Jiahui are flying all over the world now. As long as the news reaches the old house of the Chen family, the old man of the Chen family will probably hate you very much. The Chen family and the Ji family will definitely be at odds with each other... and the Chen family Song is a very affectionate person, especially towards the younger members of the Chen family, who is always a bit intolerant."

Ji Wuyan helped the old lady into the house and sat down, then said, "Since you understand everything, why do you want him to stay here, suffering like burning oil?"

"Can you just keep out of sight after leaving?" The crutch was placed on the armrest of the chair, and the old lady squinted at her, "You want to let him avoid these heart-wrenching and annoying things, but you don't know that his whole heart is focused on You, a heartless girl, because you can't see it, you can't eat or sleep more and more, making random guesses. Are you injured? Are you full? Are you cold? With your temper, you don't know how to take good care of yourself. Yes, so the person far away in the south of the Yangtze River became more tormented the more he thought about it."

"So I say, a little girl like you doesn't understand the concerns of an elder."

Ji Wuyan handed the teacup to her, "Warm your hands... Grandma Wang has talked about things when you were young. It can be seen that at that time, you were more reluctant to give in than I am now. Although I know that elders have concerns. , but I am also worried about the safety of my elders. In the face of safety, nothing is worth mentioning. You must also understand."

Naturally I understand.

Mrs. Ji held the tea cup but did not drink. She actually knew the hurdle in Chen Song's heart that he could not overcome. The little girl was naive and thought that the hurdle would be overcome once the leg was cured.As everyone knows, trauma is easy to treat, but heart disease is difficult to heal. In Chen Song's heart, he himself has been a dead person for a long time. Now that he is alive, he only has a little thought about him, and this child is his thought.

It would be best if he could be by his side without any danger, but if he was ill...it would only be one life for another.

This kind of thinking cannot be dissuaded by others. That is the whole meaning of his willingness to "live" well.

"I was different back then." Mrs. Ji smiled and changed the topic.They are all stubborn people, the young ones are stubborn, the old ones are also stubborn, they can’t be persuaded... they can’t be persuaded at all.

"How is it different?"

"I was a saint of the Ji family at that time. In the early years, the Ji family had a presbytery and a saint. The saint was selected from the family and was used by the presbytery to balance the power of the patriarch. I was only three years old at that time. I didn’t understand anything, so I was taken to the Presbyterian Church and trained by the elders personally. Even my parents... were not around. Children, they all fall in love with their mothers. I cry when I can’t see my mother. I cried all night long... Later, the elders had no choice but to allow my mother to come see me once every three or five days."

Ji Wuyan had never heard of these things. Over the years, my grandmother and Aunt Wang occasionally talked about her, and they always talked about what happened after her grandmother dismissed the Presbyterian Council. She was wanton, passionate, and free.This was the first time she heard about these childhood events. She found it interesting. She held a small hand stove and found a blanket to cover them both. Then she said, "The elders did not beat or scold you, but allowed you mother and daughter to meet. It’s not too bad.”

"After all, I was still too young at that time and I was stubborn. Hitting me and scolding me would only make me cry harder. I heard from the wet nurse at that time that I fainted from crying several times... In the end, the elders really had no choice. , probably couldn’t stand me crying all day long, so I made a compromise.”

It's really not a good thing.Ji Wuyan thought about the things in the basement of the East Palace, and then asked, "What happened next?"
