10. The Royal Family of Yancheng(1/2)
It was three days later that Ye Ling had buried Liu Shu.
She stood in front of Liu Shu's tomb and put the flowers on it.
"Aunt Shu, I'm leaving." She whispered, "I have said goodbye to my parents. After saying goodbye to you, I will leave Liucheng."
A gust of wind blew, causing the small tree next to the tombstone to rust, as if responding to Ye Ling's words.
Liu Shu's gentle eyes appeared in Ye Ling's mind again.
Ye Ling's eyes were sore and she choked and said, "If it weren't for me, you would definitely be very happy now. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have left so early."
She knelt down and kowtowed three times to Liu Shu's tombstone.
"Aunt Shu, I will definitely avenge you and your parents."
"I will not let anyone involved in this matter go unpunished."
"I want them all to taste the suffering you and your parents suffer!"
I don’t know when the sun shrouded in the clouds, and the dark sky seemed to fall.
A storm is coming.
Ye Ling stood up, looked at Liu Shu with a smile on the tombstone reluctantly, and finally left.
Outside the car window, crackling raindrops rolled back obliquely. Ye Ling leaned against the window and looked at the beautiful hibiscus on both sides of the street. The deep and shallow purple color was shrouded in the hazy rain, as if it would disappear in the next moment.
She remembered that Liu Shu once told her that the flower language of hibiscus is tenacity.
The car finally stopped at her door.
Wang Honglei called over.
"I have to go home to pack up my things and wait for me for an hour." Ye Ling said.
Wang Honglei didn't mind: "I'll pick you up in an hour."
When Ye Ling returned home, he went to the master bedroom to clean up the things scattered all over the floor.
Everything in this room has not changed. Her parents' clothes are still hung in the wardrobe, there are photos of three people on the bedside table, and there are pairs of graffiti from Ye Ling when he was a child on the wall.
But these things are old, so old that they can no longer be the same as before.
Everyone has left, and it is useless to keep things.
Ye Ling packed up his clothes and carefully placed the album at the bottom of the box.
There are photos of her, her parents and Liu Shu inside.
This is her most precious treasure.
Before leaving, Ye Ling walked to the front of the stove, lit the fire, and burned the notebook in his hand.
This records all the patterns on the coffin she copied, and some of these patterns were written by Liu Shu.
"Juntian seals Canglang here."
This is one of the sentences she knew that were carved on the coffin, and the only sentence she could understand.
The coffin and rubbing are indeed related to Emperor Juntian, so this notebook cannot be kept.
She could only remember these things firmly in her mind. Only those things in her mind could not be stolen.
Ye Ling looked at the familiar house with nostalgia for the last time, and finally closed the door, locking this precious past belonging to Liucheng.
It seemed that the faint wish that people would last forever in my ears. The sunlight after the rain shone on the already very old little yellow duck through the light blue curtains.
However, there was no Liu Shu who was reading a book inside, and Xiao Ye Ling who was holding her mother and acting cute.
On the plane to Yancheng, there were only two people in the first class cabin, Wang Honglei and Ye Ling.
Ye Ling had not spoken to Wang Honglei, but just looked out the window with a blank expression.
Wang Honglei said: "Do you hate me?"
Ye Ling didn't say anything.
Wang Honglei chuckled and said, "You should actually hate yourself the most."
Ye Ling suddenly turned her head. Because she hadn't had much rest for three days, her eyes were very red, her face was pale, her cheeks were thin, and she looked very gloomy.
Wang Honglei praised in his heart. Wang Shuyun was a famous beauty in the Wang family back then. He didn't expect her daughter to be more beautiful. Even now, she is still amazingly beautiful.
"Look, you know that the reason why you are so sad now is because you hate yourself?"
"I hate myself for being weak, I hate myself for being incompetent, I hate the people you care about to leave you one by one."
"It is not scary to hate others, it is the most painful to hate yourself."
Ye Ling looked at Wang Honglei coldly and said, "So what do you want to say?"
Wang Honglei smiled and took a sip of wine: "I hate myself for being good, but for you now, what you need more is rest. After arriving at the Wang family, there are more things waiting for you. It is better to have a good sleep than to have this energy. If you kill Qi Yuancheng, the Qi family will not let it go."
Ye Ling said: "I understand."
She turned her head, grabbed the blanket on her body, and closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Yancheng is a city with spring seasons. It has no disadvantages except rainy. It is divided into inner city and outer city, separated by a river around the city. The inner city has many exquisite ancient buildings, while the outer city is a modern city full of tall buildings.
Ye Ling also came here when she was a child. A photo of her family in her hand was the Red Light Square here.
"We are back to the Wang family now. The Wang family is in the inner city. The head of the family will meet you later." Wang Honglei said to Ye Ling.
Ye Ling said: "Is my grandfather still here?"
Wang Honglei said: "I'm not here, but the current head of the family is your grandfather's brother, so there is no need to worry about bullying you in the Wang family."
Ye Ling didn't believe it. If she really cared about her, how could she come to her now?
She knew what the Wang family wanted, and they wanted the rubbings that her mother brought back.
Unfortunately, the rubbing has long disappeared.
The car slowly entered the inner city. Sure enough, as soon as it entered the inner city, it seemed to have entered another world.
Although it is summer, almost half of people wear wide-sleeved robes.
"There are three families in the inner city, the Wang family, the Qi family and the Mu family."
When Ye Ling heard the Mu family, he frowned. Mu Ze was also surnamed Mu. I wonder if he would have anything to do with the Mu family after leaving Liucheng.
"Here, come with me." Wang Honglei said.
What appeared in front of Ye Ling was a deep mansion, and the ten-meter-high brick wall seemed to surround another world.
The door did not open, and Wang Honglei took Ye Ling into the small door next to him.
"Master Hong Lei, the head of the family is waiting for you in the main hall." A girl with a low eyebrows and concealed eyes stepped forward and said.
The Wang family is very big. After Ye Ling followed Wang Honglei for a long time, he finally arrived at the so-called main hall.
The door of the main hall was not closed, and an old man was sitting on the chair at the top.
Wang Honglei respectfully clasped his fists and said, "I have met the head of the family, but Hong Lei has been lucky enough to bring Ye Ling back."
Wang Chenshan's eyes did not look at him, but kept looking at Ye Ling.
Ye Ling also looked at him. The old man looked very kind and had a gentle look. Somehow, she missed: "Ye Ling had met his grandfather."
Wang Chenshan smiled and said, "Okay, okay, good boy, it's good to come back, come and let me see."
"I look so much like Shu Yun!" Wang Chenshan sighed.
"Your grandfather is my younger brother. He left early, leaving only Shu Yun with one daughter. Now that you are back, your grandfather will definitely be happy."
"Just arrived at the Wang family, you may have many things you are not used to. When your sister Yuran comes back, I will let her take care of you."
Ye Ling nodded: "Thank you, grandpa."
Ye Ling didn't know who Wang Yuran was, but Wang Honglei was shocked when he heard this. Wang Yuran was an extremely outstanding woman of this generation. He had been concentrating on practicing and had never taken care of errands at all. Unexpectedly, the head of the family would ask her to take care of Ye Ling.
Wang Chenshan was about to continue talking, but saw a butler-like figure walking in quietly and saying something in his ear.
"You must always come what you should come, let them come in." Wang Chenshan said.
Ye Ling's eyebrows hopped, and suddenly had a bad premonition. Sure enough, the next moment, Wang Chenshan said to her: "Hong Lei has told me about your affairs with the Qi family."
Ye Ling was silent.
Wang Chenshan sighed and said, "It's not your fault for this matter. The Qi family's people have always been accustomed to being arrogant. The Qi family's junior dared to attack you, and it's a pity that he would die. Don't worry, the Wang family will definitely protect you in this matter."
Wang Chenshan's tone was extremely sincere and his expression was very kind, just like an elder who cared for and cared for the younger generation. Even though Ye Ling knew that the Wang family might have other purposes, he couldn't help but feel moved.
At this moment, the Qi family members came in.
It was for a middle-aged man in his forties, followed by a young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old.
Ye Ling frowned. The young man looked very similar to Qi Yuancheng, but his eyebrows were not as sinister as he was, but he had a bit of arrogance.
"Qi Hong has met the head of the Wang family."
"Qi Yuanshan has met the head of the Wang family."
Qi Yuanshan, Qi Yuancheng, Sure enough, this young man is likely to have something to do with Qi Yuancheng.
