C58 (1/2)
Gu Zheng's appearance was truly frightening, scaring Yue Fu so much that the fear in her heart couldn't be calmed for a long time. It was her personal servant, Bi Chun, who helped her up before letting go.
”Madam …” Bi Chun felt her heart ache for Yue Fuyi.
Yue Fu shook his head in hatred. Why was it that even though she was no longer in the residence, Gu Zheng was still unable to forget her?
She had to treat people of the Wei Residence this way just because she was in contact with them. She already had her heart set on the Wei Residence, but Gu Zheng was unwilling to hurt her by even a hair.
Thinking of this, Yue Fusheng's tears once again began to flow, crying so hard that he couldn't even breathe.
She was just a girl …
”...”
The next day
Early in the morning, Wei Yi was still in the morning assembly, still in the morning assembly. He stayed behind to meet Li Bu in the morning assembly, while at the same time seeking a concubine marriage.
”If you have time in the future, write me an imperial edict and throw it on my head.” Wei Yi spoke in an extremely relaxed manner, as though he was practicing his calligraphy.
”I can see that you can't wait any longer. Relax, once I finish writing this game of chess with you, I'll immediately start writing. You can take it back, just in case I have to instruct someone to come over.”
Li Bu had followed Wei Yi since he was young, so he naturally understood the meaning behind his words. He was simply unable to wait any longer and wanted to bring the beauty home as soon as possible.
Indeed, for so many years, he had always been a single person, and it was time to find someone to accompany him. As the saying goes, a hero must feel sad for a beauty, and even Wei Yi, who had almost transcended the mortal world, knew the seven emotions and six desires.
However, Wei Yi himself …
He didn't know whether this marriage should be given or not.
You don't need to think too much, it's just that I'm not young anymore. I want someone to accompany me, and I also like her a lot. I'm afraid that if I don't pay attention and get carried away, I won't even be able to cry.
After he finished speaking, Wei Yi narrowed his eyes in an extremely relaxed manner. ”This Governor thinks the same.” He was leaning against the soft couch, and only he dared to treat this place as if it were his own home.
Li Bu had gotten used to this kind of behavior since he was young. When Wei Yi taught him the Six Classic of Poetry and the Six Classics, he directly threw a bunch of books in front of him without saying anything else. After throwing it to him, he immediately fell asleep.
”Of course I won't let you come to my place.” Li Bu had an uncontrollable smile on his face. He didn't know how Wei Yi had been able to accomplish such a thing for so many years. The only thing he could do was be at peace.
”One more thing.” When Wei Yi said this, he straightened his clothes and sat up a little. ”After I get married, I just want to carry a beauty and live a small life every day. If there's nothing big in the imperial court, I'll just pretend that I don't have him.” After he finished speaking, Wei Yi placed the chess pieces on the chess board. With this step, he was giving up the entire game of chess.
Ever since the late Emperor passed away and he ascended the throne, Wei Yi no longer cared about this much. He only wanted to live a peaceful life in the Residence of Ye, and didn't even want to get involved in this mess anymore. He didn't want to have any thoughts of overflowing authority in his heart.
As such, he didn't want to keep him in the upper echelons of the imperial court. Now that the situation was stable, he naturally agreed.
Li Bu reached out to grab the chess piece before passing it to Wei Yi. ”There's no need to give it up. It's called 'retreat'.”
With a single sentence, Wei Yi laughed as he stretched his hand out to receive the chess piece. ”You brat … This Director really did not teach them in vain. ”
”Are you trying to teach me how to exchange the Four Books and Five Classics for a picture of a beauty?” Li Bu's joke caused the two to laugh out loud.
”Don't mention the past.” However, because he was full of poetry and was proficient in military strategies, he had become the Regent. Back then, he had saved the late emperor's life in the hands of a criminal and rendered a great merit to no one in the capital who could touch him. The next year, the late emperor suddenly died of an old illness, and Li Bu, as the crown prince, was pushed to the throne at the tender age of a young age.
Wei Yi was still a child, but he had to have a child. He was also the youngest regent in so many years.
However, that did not mean he was young and could not accomplish anything. Wei Yi could be considered a person with courage and schemes that far exceeded his peers, and he had taught Li Bu to be the most revered Monarch in the entire world.
Back then, Li Bu was really good at it, so with such a great contribution, it was naturally worth it for him to be arrogant.
Li Bu thought back to that year when Wei Yi had left him alone in the great hall, provoking a fever that would last for several days. The entire palace was thrown into chaos, but Wei Yi had instead casually said, ”It's only a small chill, not worth mentioning.”
”Let's stay for dinner tonight.” Li Bu said.
Wei Yi's eyebrows raised as he said, ”This Regional Commander isn't that poor yet, and he still has to come to the palace in exchange for food.”
”When I was young, didn't you rub your hands together for a whole ten years in one go?” Li Bu laughed, not joking in the slightest.
