Lian Ruyue looked at the jade phoenix. She understood that this was her mother's affirmation, and also her most powerful form of protection. Now that she was more and more conspicuous, more and more people were watching her.
The news that Ru Yue had obtained the Jade Phoenix soon spread to the Prime Minister's Estate. Now, everyone looked at her with even more respect. Everyone knew that the Eldest Miss had the same authority as the old mistress.
Lian Yanqing's study.
He was in the middle of doing some official business. Not long later, the hand seals came in and he put down what he was doing and asked, ”Are you all well?”
”Father, my body is fully recovered.”
Lian Yan Qing nodded and breathed out a sigh of relief. He said, ”This is great. The past few days have not been in vain. Father is worried.”
Lian Fang looked at this extremely shrewd 'father'. He enjoyed an extremely high status within the imperial court. However, his only son …
”Father, I came to report something to you.”
”Yi'er, what is it? Tell me.” Lian Yanqing looked at his eldest son with an amiable expression.
”There are words in the ancient saying, read ten thousand books, and travel ten thousand miles. Confucius and Mencius also traveled around the world, becoming famous travelers at the time. At that time, they were followed by a large number of people, ”a dozen times in the back of a car and hundreds of people in the back.” And Sima Qian, after studying hard for ten years, carried his luggage and traveled the world. I have read quite a lot of books under Master over the years, and it's time to travel ten thousand miles. Therefore, I came here to report to Father that I intend to use a year's time to go out and study in different places. ”
When Lian Yan Qing heard this, he immediately stood up and objected, ”I don't agree! ”Yi'er, you were just assassinated just now, and even now, you still haven't found out who did it to you. Since the murderer hasn't been found out, they will still make a second move against you, and at this time, I definitely won't agree to let you go out to study. If you do that, you must stay in the mansion properly and not go out at all.
Lian Yan Qing's attitude was very resolute. This was within Lian Dao's expectations because he was his only legitimate son. But what if he knew that he wasn't his biological son?
Lian Meng lowered his head and respectfully replied, ”Yes, father. I understand. I will listen to you.”
Only then did Lian Yanqing relax. He walked over, patted his shoulder, and said earnestly, ”Yi'er, Father knows that you have always been diligent in studying, that you have high aspirations, and that I am very pleased. But what I value the most is your safety and health.”
”Yes, I understand father's intentions.” Lian Meng nodded and said.
After Lian Yan Qing warned him a few more times to rest and not think too much, he walked out of the study.
As he walked out of the study, the smile on his face gradually froze. He then walked step by step towards the back door of the residence.
There was already a horse carriage waiting there. As he was dozing off in front of the carriage, he quickly jumped down from the carriage and asked:
”Young master, did the old master agree?”
Lian Meng didn't say anything. He turned his head and looked at the wall in front of him. This place was once his home, but from today onwards, it would never be again.
Everything that was left behind would be buried one by one.
”Young master …” Noticing that Lian Meng didn't say anything, Nine asked again.
”Yes, let's go.”
”But, Eldest Miss, that …” 49 looked at Lian Meng carefully. He also didn't understand why the young master decided to go out for a vacation after he recovered and hid it from the young miss.
”She will understand.” Lian Meng finally retracted his gaze and jumped on the carriage as he muttered to himself.
Yes, sister, I will finally understand his decision.
Only he had left. Even if he had died outside, he wouldn't have implicated his mother and sister. It was just that unfortunately, he hadn't been able to meet her face to face and say goodbye.
He didn't know when or where he would meet next. Maybe next year, maybe the year after that, maybe at the ends of the earth, maybe at the tip of the sea, maybe for the rest of his life … They would never meet again …
Not easy to see, hard to see!
