It didn't take long for Dongfang Ji to take Yan Yueying back, but he was afraid that she wouldn't be able to get used to living in Xiling's harem, so he built a mansion outside to house her. Xiao Lian, who had been following Yan Yueying, also followed Yan
Yueying is back.
And Dongfang Ji also has some feelings for this little Lian who has been taking care of him since he was a child, just like a family member.
"Xiao Lian, I will be busy with national affairs in the future and will not have so much time to take care of my mother. You have to take good care of your mother for me."
"This slave will definitely know how to do it, Your Majesty."
Now Xiao Lian doesn't even dare to look up at Dongfang Ji. In the past, he was the unpopular young master of the Zuo Xiang Mansion. He was bullied and needed the protection of her little maid.
But now he has grown up and become stronger, and he is the king of Xiling Kingdom.
"Xiao Lian, is that person... still bothering my mother recently?"
Dongfangji refers to Dongfang Fengyuan.
Not long after Yan Yueying came to Xiling, Dongfang Fengyuan found Xiling and wanted to see Yan Yueying.
But in the past, Yan Yueying lived in the harem, and Dongfang Fengyuan could not see her whenever he wanted. Later, because the Nalan family targeted him, he had to send Yan Yueying out of the palace, and Dongfang Fengyuan found the opportunity to harass Yan Yueying all day long.
.
Even though he sent people to protect Yan Yueying, he didn't know if the scheming Dongfang Fengyuan would find another way.
"Master... doesn't appear often, but he always sends people to deliver letters to Madam."
Xiao Lian said that she still respectfully calls Dongfang Fengyuan "Master", and at least she came from Zuo Xiang's house.
"If you encounter any difficulties, Xiao Lian, you must send someone to deliver a letter to me."
Dongfang hopes to explain.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
…
After chatting with Xiao Lian for a while, Dongfang Ji went in to see his mother.
Yan Yueying is doing embroidery. What she used to do most often was worship Buddha, but now she likes embroidery, and she is in a good mood to embroider after leaving Zuoxiang's Mansion. As for her son Dongfang Ji's actions in recent years, although she
Even far away in Bieyuan, I heard people mention it occasionally.
In particular, Dongfang Fengyuan's letter mentioned Dongfang Ji's affairs many times, especially the massacre of the city by Xiling's army... Regarding this, Yan Yueying came from a royal family and actually understood that there were many things that even Dongfang Ji could not do anything about.
The general was not subject to military orders abroad, but she always believed that her son was not such a bad person, not a man who was so heartless that he did not care about the lives and deaths of the people in the world.
"Mom, how are you doing lately?"
Dongfang Ji found that his mother's complexion was acceptable, but she seemed to have lost some weight.
"Very good. Ji'er, what about you?"
"I'm fine too."
Dongfang Ji sat down next to Yan Yueying, thought about it, and finally decided to say, "Well...does Dongfang Fengyuan often write to you?"
"..."
Yan Yueying was silent for a moment, nodded, and said to Dongfang Ji, "That man is your father after all. Even though I am a mother, my feelings for him are very complicated, but it has been more than twenty years... Oh, how can I put it, besides?
Mother loves you very much, I love you and Lian'er. In fact, I don't regret giving birth to you because of him. So the hatred and resentment towards him... are actually in the past. Ji'er, you too, let it go. After all, if he is not there,
Without you."
Dongfang Ji was silent for a long time, and then said, "I will let him leave Xiling and won't bother you anymore from now on."
"No need. If a person is like stopping the water, anyone who says is not a problem."
