v2.Chapter 18 (1/2)

Heavy snow, outside the prime minister's house, a blue oilcloth carriage stopped in the snow.

Yan Yan took off his purple gold crown belt and only used a jingchai to tie his hair. His purple official clothes were also changed into cloth and cotton padded robes.

People depend on their clothes and horses depend on their saddles. This kind of Yan is no different from the ordinary old man. Who could have thought that he was the prime minister standing in the court?

Yan Shuo and Yin Jixi sent him out of the house, but his experienced and steady son could hold him, and his daughter was already crying.

”Father, can't you leave after winter and spring? It's freezing outside. When you go back to your hometown in central Fujian alone, how can my elder brother and I rest assured? ”

Yan Shuo also said: ”although Minzhong is my hometown, we Yin family have been officials in the court for several generations, and there has been no one in my hometown for a long time. My father went back in a hurry for fear that the old house would not be ready. ”

Yan Yan waved his hand, indicating that they didn't have to say any more.

”I have to leave as soon as possible. Your majesty is very kind to the house of marquis Gu. Gu Shubai almost died. I just resigned to apologize. Many old ministers in the court who had old grudges with me were very dissatisfied. If you don't leave again, it won't do you any good to irritate your majesty. ”

He looked up, cold snow into his neck, let him shiver.

He slowly began to laugh.

”The colder the weather is, the more snowy it is. Your majesty will be calmer when he hears about it. Do you understand?”

Brother and sister nodded silently.

Yan Yan was always strict, but at the critical moment, he thought of them.

Yin Shuo said: ”father, don't worry. I will send someone back to central Fujian to pick up my father when I get a firm foothold in the middle of the Dynasty and the current situation is calm.”

Yan Yan looked at him kindly. The son always made him proud, and he had nothing to worry about.

What made him more worried was Yin Jihe.

”Your mother's tomb has ordered people to set up a wordless monument for your father, and there will be no fear that the snow will not be found in the future. But her identity can't be known to outsiders. You can't let out a little bit. Do you understand? ”

There is no monument on her mother's grave, there is no spirit in her home, even her name can't be known.

It's better to have a wordless tablet than nothing.

Yan Ji's eyes were full of tears, ”thank you, father. The daughter knows that she will never tell anyone else. ”

Yan Yan nodded and turned to Yan Shuo, ”you should take good care of Ji Yi. When my father is not in the house, you are left to depend on each other. You brothers and sisters are of one mind. Only when you are a father can you feel at ease in central Fujian. ”

Yin Shuo bowed and said, ”father, don't worry, my child will take good care of Ji Ji and control the court. I will never let my father leave in vain and suffer these crimes in vain! ”

The snow fell one after another, and the green cloth carriage went away slowly, leaving two narrow ruts on the snow.

For the first time in his life, Yin Yan took such a small carriage.

He huddled in the carriage with his clothes, dry food and other luggage, and slowly closed his eyes.

Behind him, Yan Shuo and Yin Jixiao knelt down to see him off, and did not get up for a long time.
