On December 25, Wei Changtian and his party finally returned to the capital.
And Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen finally met Xiao Hongsu, whom they had longed for.
Needless to say, the latter held little Hongsu in his arms and looked at him again and again, feeling extremely happy.
Even Wei Xianzhi, who only smiled a few times a year, showed a rare smile. He kept muttering "This time is good, this time is good". He was completely different from the feared commander of the Xuanjing Division.
.
As the "number one contributor" to the birth of Xiao Hongsu, Liang Qin's status in the Wei family has naturally increased. As soon as he arrived at the Wei family, he was called away by Qin Caizhen, and it was inevitable to greet him with greetings.
Xu Qingwan and others can't say "mother is more valuable than son" for the time being, but they certainly don't have any grudges, at most they are just a little envious.
In this way, everyone settled in the Wei Mansion, and the huge mansion became more popular.
...
The day after returning to the capital.
Because everyone who came back this time had lived in the capital for a long or short period of time, there was no freshness and formality like "Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden", and they quickly got busy with their own affairs.
Early this morning, Xu Qingwan went home with large bags and small boxes of gifts to visit her parents.
The same goes for Lu Jingyao. She almost left the Wei Mansion by car with Comrade Xiao Xu and went back to her parents' home.
The Xu family and the Lu family are now different from what they used to be, and both have become big and famous families in Daning.
Needless to say, everyone knows the reason. Naturally, it is because they each have a daughter who married well.
Therefore, one can imagine how the two daughters will be treated after returning home, and it is estimated that they will inevitably stay at their parents' house for a few days.
As for the only "homeless" Yangliu Shi...
Although she had no family, she had several sisters and maids with whom she had a close relationship while she was working as an oiran in the capital.
Since following Wei Changtian to Shuzhou, Yang Liushi has lost contact with these people, so this time it is time to meet old friends...
Just like what Wei Changtian said to Xu Suisui before, in fact, everyone is not completely dependent on his existence.
Everyone has relatives and friends, and their own life and pursuits.
Wei Changtian, on the other hand, only appeared in their lives as a father-in-law, son, eldest brother, father, etc., and then accompanied them on a long or short journey.
Including Chu Xianping and Qin Zhengqiu.
Wei Changtian didn't know if his "fate" with these two people was over, but what happened in the past would never disappear.
The "IQ ceiling" came up with suggestions again and again, and the "gold medal fighter" turned the tide again and again.
Frankly speaking, if it weren't for Chu Xianping and Qin Zhengqiu, Wei Changtian felt that he would have been played to death by Ning Yongnian and others.
Therefore, if one day in the future his journey with these two people really comes to an end, he still hopes that there will be a good ending.
Even if it seems impossible now...
"Changtian, is there no news from your grandfather?"
In the study, Wei Xianzhi and Wei Changtian stood side by side in front of the window, their eyes falling on Qin Caizhen and Liang Qin who were talking in a pavilion not far away.
"No."
Wei Changtian shook his head, turned around and asked, "Is my mother okay?"
"She... how can she not be sad when your grandpa becomes like this?"
Wei Xianzhi sighed: "Well, I have seen her secretly wiping tears in the middle of the night several times. I guess she is worried."
"...blame me."
Wei Changtian paused and said softly: "It would have been better if I had not shown the manual of Tiaoyue Sword to my grandfather."
"You can't say that. Who can know what has not happened yet."
Wei Xianzhi looked away, walked to the table and sat down: "The most important thing now is to find your grandfather as soon as possible and put an end to this matter."
"Yes, I know."
Wei Changtian also walked to the tea table and sat down: "It's just that grandpa has been almost controlled by his inner demon. By then..."
"..."
Having said this, Wei Changtian didn't say any more, and the room fell into a long silence.
Because both of them knew that this would be a very difficult choice.
If Qin Zhengqiu comes to kill him one day, Wei Changtian will certainly not be able to sit back and wait for death, and the Wei family will naturally stand by Wei Changtian.
But if this happens, Qin Caizhen will undoubtedly fall into an extremely dilemma.
On one side is the husband and son, on the other side is the biological father.
If only one of the two parties can survive, then no matter who survives in the end, she will definitely suffer from it for the rest of her life.
There is no doubt that this is certainly not what Wei Xianzhi and Wei Changtian want to see.
so......
"Dad, I'll try my best."
After being silent for a long time, Wei Changtian finally said slowly: "I try not to conflict with my grandfather."
"If it is really unavoidable, then I will try my best to save his life. In this way, my mother may not be too uncomfortable."
"Well, that's all."
Nodding, Wei Xianzhi seemed to feel that the atmosphere was a bit too serious, so he relaxed his tone a little, and asked with a smile: "What about Chu Xianping? I heard that you sent Li Zimu out to find out information about him?"
"How's it going? Did you find anything?"
"Not yet, Zimu is still investigating."
Wei Changtian shook his head: "I guess it won't be a big deal this time."
"Yeah...right."
Wei Xianzhi's voice paused, and he suddenly said as if he remembered something: "Recently, the Xuanjing Division and Zhan Shifu have sent back some information from various countries, saying that many large sects have suddenly closed their mountain gates. I don't know if this has anything to do with it.
relation."
"Seal the mountain gate?"
Wei Changtian was stunned. This was the first time he heard about this matter.
Because although the intelligence network in his hands is also very large, it is mainly concentrated in Ningshu and Feng, and things abroad do lag behind.
After frowning and thinking for a long time, Wei Changtian couldn't think of any connection between the Fengshan Sect of various sects and Chu Xianping, but he just felt it was a bit strange.
After all, who would seal the mountain gate for no reason, and there are still so many sects together.
This shows that these sects knew certain information and responded in the same way.
For everyone to react in such a unanimous manner, this matter must be of great significance.
But how could the intelligence agencies of the five kingdoms of Ningshu, Fengchu and Han not know about such a big matter?
This shouldn't be the case.
unless......
Suddenly, Wei Changtian's eyes froze, and his expression suddenly became uncomfortable.
Because he understood why he hadn't heard any news before.
There is only one possibility, and that is that the dissemination of intelligence this time is "directional."
Someone told certain things to certain forces, and then these forces remained tight-lipped and even blocked the mountain gate to prevent any leakage of information.
In other words, the person who leaked the information this time did not want this matter to become as well known as the "Thirteen Sons of Heaven", but only shared it with a small group of people for certain purposes.
Obviously, this group of people does not include myself.
He might even be the one being kept secret.
If these speculations are true, combined with Chu Xianping's previous words "Don't leave Shu within half a year"...
His eyes suddenly widened, Wei Changtian finally connected the matter with Chu Xianping, and finally understood why Li Zimu did not hesitate to use so many resources to find out the truth as soon as possible.
Because in half a year at the latest, the world situation will undergo a complete change.
