Chapter 1763: Keep Your Heart
After saying that, Old Lady Ye coughed a few times before sighing, and looked at Ye Chunqiu deeply again.
But then, his voice became much calmer and he said, "If you close the door, I won't be ashamed of you anymore. Our Ye family thought that at the beginning, they were really a small family, but now they have made a fortune. Even if they are the most wealthy family in the world, it is not an exaggeration. For the outside world, it is said that we are descendants of famous families. It is not a big deal. It was originally a taboo for the priest, but I have searched through the genealogy. Although the Ye family has several talented people, they are just a juren in their family."
"As for the family that accumulates good deeds and passes on to the family, it is actually a fool. It's just a few hundred acres of land in the countryside. The ancestors and clans were always lucky and didn't have any money, so they were considered smooth and smooth, and they would never lose their family."
"But when it comes to the end of the Ye family, I don't hide it. In fact, it's up to you, Ye Chunqiu. Look, we are so glorious now. Among the children, some of them are managing the huge family industry, and they are dealing with hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. Some have won the Jinshi. With your relationship, they have become a lecturer in the Zhanshi Mansion. Of course, there is a lot of potential. Some are in the Jinyiwei, and now they are a clerk, and some are in the new army, and their future is also promising."
Old Mrs. Ye seemed to be speaking out with a stick, leaning on her back, looking flushed, and said, "What are you... relying on? It's you, but Spring and Autumn, you have to think about it, who are you relying on? Although I don't have your literary talent, I have a little knowledge of classics and history. Which emperor of all dynasties can do what Your Majesty treats you like? I have seen many nobles in my life, but look at Your Majesty, I really treat you a little.
There is no warning, isn’t there a saying, “A man dies for his confidant, Your Majesty is your confidant. Of course, I didn’t ask you to die for Your Majesty. What a smart person you are. I think you will understand this principle. Your Majesty gave you such great wealth and the Ye family should be glorious. I don’t understand the things in the temple, and I don’t want to understand it. This thing is too deep, and I don’t understand it. Your father may not be able to see through it, but you have seen it through it.”
"So, what do you do? I said the same in front of your father. Don't interfere, because we know the truth better than those of us who are dying. Whether you want to eradicate the treacherous party, or you are a treacherous party, or a loyal minister, if Qianqiu Shibi scolds our surname Ye in the future, you say that you are a traitor, and I will accompany you to be this thief, it's really okay."
"But one thing that you must not lose is conscience. Our Ye family insists on repaying your Majesty's kindness of knowing your favor. How can you repay it? I also know a little about the things outside, saying that you are Cao Cao. I'm scared. I believe that you may not be a loyal and kind person, but I will definitely not believe that you are so unconscienced. I will really want to be Cao Cao and Sima Zhao."
Speaking of this, Old Lady Ye sighed again, looked at Ye Chunqiu steadily and said, "You tell me what the hell is this?"
Old Mrs. Ye is indeed old and even speaks with trembling eyes. Her teeth are almost done, and she is a little confused when speaking.
So he tried his best to be slow, for fear that Ye Chunqiu would not understand.
Ye Chunqiu listened quietly. When Old Lady Ye asked about this, Ye Chunqiu was not at all slow and said, "Big Father, this is the reason. I am Duke Zhou, not Cao Cao."
"Ha...Duke Zhou." Old Mrs. Ye looked at the calm expression on Ye Chunqiu's face and smiled with satisfaction.
He had no intention. When he thought that his grandson wanted to be Zhou Gong, he couldn't help laughing happily, and even the corners of his eyes became a little wet, and he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
He knew that Ye Chunqiu would not deceive him, so he lay comfortably on the sofa. But the next moment, his face became solemn again, and then he said, "It is indeed a good thing to be Zhou Gong, but I have lived for seventy years, and some things have been seen through. In this world, it is easy to be Cao Cao and Sima Yi, but it is difficult to be Zhou Gong. Why? Because people with great power will be suspicious and people will question it. This road is difficult. What is important is that people's hearts are unpredictable. In your eyes, others' hearts are unpredictable, and in other people's eyes, your hearts are unpredictable. Who can trust this person's hearts with their belly? Naturally, I believe that Your Majesty can trust you, but what about others?"
"If they don't believe it, their grandson will kill them." Ye Chunqiu suddenly smiled. This time, he no longer had the tense face, but his confident eyes shone brightly.
But Old Lady Ye almost choked to death. Behind this sentence sounds a bit like a joke, Old Lady Ye knew that this might be Ye Chunqiu’s true thoughts.
After all, one general succeeded and thousands of bones were woven. Behind a Zhou Gong, there were countless white bones.
Old Lady Ye paused and finally waved her hand and said, "Hey, this is your business. It's up to you. I don't care about anything else. I'll do whatever you like. I'll do whatever you like. I'll live in this family. I haven't been alive for a few years. I'm about to die. My half foot has stepped into the coffin. But I've seen it openly and just want to survive for a few years. I'll take care of whatever you can. You can be your Zhou Gong."
Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but be amused by Old Lady Ye, and the heavy feeling in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Yes, a real man does things, and has a goal, and does it. As long as he thinks he is doing the right thing, then why do he have to worry about himself?
When you think about it, your mood will naturally become more comfortable and happy.
At this time, Ye Dong's voice came from outside the door: "Master, Mr. Jiang has sent a message to you."
Bachelor Jiang?
Has he left the palace?
Now it should be the time for His Majesty to have a big banquet for guests, but he hurriedly said goodbye. Why?
There is actually no need to guess Ye Chunqiu, that is probably something I can think of.
Ye Chunqiu glanced at Old Lady Ye, and Old Lady Ye stood up with a stick and said, "This must be important. I won't join in the fun. However, Chunqiu, if you remember your words, I hope you can still maintain your true heart in ten or twenty years."
He touched his heart and then continued: "A man can do anything, but he must keep the last bottom line. This is our Ye family." He jumped up and said as if he was joking: "Don't forget that our Ye family is the inheritance of poetry and books."
