Chapter 193 Fourth Sister, Are You Aggrieved?

The old lady softened her voice and said to Xiao: "Tell someone to take my letter to invite the imperial physician. After all, I am still the old lady of the First-Rank General's Mansion, so I have this face. I am already this old, how many years can I live? You are the stepmother, and you will have to support this family in the future, so taking good care of your health is the most important thing. I know an imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital who is a thousand-dollar doctor. Ask him to come and see you. Take some medicine. If you can't have a son, you can have another one. You are still young."

Xiao was very touched. The old lady clearly spoke for her, which was also a shock to Ye Jingsheng. Although she was asked to sacrifice a son, if compared with her own life and future, that unpromising son was really not that important.

She sobbed and said that she would definitely listen to her mother, then looked at the kneeling Ye Chulian, and said, "I will definitely treat the fifth lady well and fulfill my responsibilities as a legitimate mother. And if the master wants to go to Liu and Xichun's room in the future, I will not stop him. Just do as my mother said and let the imperial physician with a thousand gold coins check on my daughter-in-law!"

Ye Jingsheng stood up suddenly with an unhappy look on his face, "I'm afraid it will be the same if I have another child!" After saying this, he left without caring about the old lady's attitude.

Xiao was very embarrassed, and the old lady sighed continuously, but she still advised Xiao: "You have also seen his attitude now. This can't be entirely blamed on him. It's really because you didn't raise Feizhou and Hongzhuang well, and you didn't take care of this concubine since she was a child. In addition, you have kept the backyard tightly closed over the years, so he can't have concubines in his house, and the only one he has only gave birth to a daughter. So it's normal for him to be angry with you."

The old lady shook her head as she spoke, "I know. At that time, you were the second wife, and you were under pressure from the first wife. The old man didn't value you, so no matter how well you did, it was useless. But I have helped you in every way I could. Now that it has come to this, whether it will be good or bad in the future depends on your luck. Okay, go back. I'm tired too. Go back and think about how to live your life."

After Xiao left, the old lady waved her hand and asked Ye Chulian to leave as well.

Watching Ye Chulian limping out, the old lady suddenly recalled the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, and how she pinched Ye Chulian outside the palace gate to vent her anger, and as a result, all the retribution came back to her, and some parts of her body still hurt.

This matter is too evil, she has been thinking about it for so many days but still can't figure it out.

Jun Tao helped her walk into the inner room, and asked as they walked, "Does the old lady really intend to let the second young master handle this matter alone?"

"What else can we do?" The old lady was also annoyed. "That damn girl Ye Wenyan will not give up until she gets rid of this anger. Compared with Jingsheng and Shubai, Feizhou is not that important. If my son is gone, I can just have another one. I have to protect myself first."

Jun Tao was a little worried. "But I see that the relationship between the Second Master and the Second Madam seems to be not going well recently. The Second Madam has also been ill these days. Can she still have children?"

"You have to give birth even if you can't." The old lady knocked on the ground with an ordinary cane. "How can I not know what my own son is thinking? But now is not the time to change the mistress. The Xiao family is still watching, and Hong Zhuang has not completely lost hope." She thought of the Sixth Prince at the palace banquet, and hope inexplicably rose in her heart.

Ye Chulian brought Sui Xi out of the old lady's yard, walking very slowly, almost moving forward step by step.

Sui Xi wanted to help her, but she refused. She said to Sui Xi: "I am not that delicate, and I won't put on airs. If I kneel down and need someone to help me walk, I will feel like an old woman in my 50s or 60s. It's okay, I can walk by myself."

After walking a few steps forward, he saw two people standing next to a rockery. Sui Xi was shocked because one of them looked very pale and looked like a ghost from a distance.

But she reacted after a shock, "Isn't that the Fourth Young Lady? The one next to her is... Nanny Ji?" Ye Chulian walked faster, her legs were a little lame, but she was happy in her heart. Zuo Xi had been working with Ye Chulian in the outer city these days, and had more contact with Ye Wenyan, and she also felt that the Fourth Young Lady was a really good person. Before, I had no contact and didn't know her, I only knew that the old man favored the Fourth Young Lady, which led to the Fourth Young Lady's domineering temper and a bad relationship with the Second House.

But through the contact over the past few days, she felt more and more that the Fourth Young Lady was an extremely protective person. As long as you treat her with sincerity, she will love and protect you, and no one dares to bully you. Including the maids and followers around the Fourth Young Lady, they have the same temper, very good.

"Why is Fourth Sister here?" Ye Chulian clasped her hands in front of her body, twisting a handkerchief in her hands, and was obviously still nervous.

Ye Wenyan smiled at her, patted her arm, and motioned for him to walk with her and talk while walking.

Ye Chulian was very happy. As a result, she felt that the pain in her legs was gone and she could walk more smoothly. It seemed that as long as she stood next to her fourth sister, any problem could be solved.

Ye Wenyan answered her question: "I heard that the old lady asked you to kneel down as punishment, so I came to see you."

Ye Chulian smiled bitterly, "Thank you, Fourth Sister, but it doesn't matter. I've gotten used to it over the years. It's just a punishment, I have to kneel every two or three days, it's no big deal."

"Did you kneel often in the past?" She didn't remember much about the past, and the original owner didn't remember either.

Ye Chulian told her, "I kneel often, but not to the old lady, but to the second lady. I was born to a concubine, and the second lady disliked me and my aunt. She would scold me for the smallest matters and make me kneel. But I have learned some experience over the years, that is, kneel when someone asks you to kneel, and do whatever punishment they say. Never talk back or defend yourself, otherwise the storm will come even harder and you may get beaten."

She felt a little embarrassed when she said this, "Look at me, how can I say this to my fourth sister."

"No problem, I'll listen." Ye Wen's tone was calm, and it really sounded like he was listening to a story. The two walked a little further, and Ye Chulian thought for a moment and said, "Fourth sister, I have a question for you."

"Well, you ask."

"You did some good things in the outer city these days, but after you came back you had to face the accusations from the inner city people. Do you feel wronged?"

Ye Wenyan shook his head, "I'm not wronged."

"why?"

“Because I don’t care.”

"Don't care?" Ye Chulian was a little confused, "What do you mean by don't care?"

"Nothing, literally. They are not related to me, why should I care?"

"But the people from the outer city have no relationship with you, so why are you helping them?"

"Because I want to help!" Ye Wenyan laughed. "People live in this world for a few decades, so naturally they have to do whatever they want, otherwise this journey into the world wouldn't be in vain. As I said before, I can help whoever I want to help based on my own abilities, and those who are not happy about it have to hold it in. If they come to me to make trouble, they will only get mad at themselves in the end. Today is an example!"

Ye Chulian understood, and at the same time sighed: "Fourth sister, you are really courageous. I also want to be as courageous as you, but I can't. I can't even pass the old lady's test. I knelt for three hours today, and my knees are swollen."

"Chu Lian." She tilted her head to look over. "Courage is never given by others, but is in your bones. The reason why you don't have it is because you don't have the conditions to support it yet. When one day you have it, those who should bow their heads will naturally bow to you. Even if they don't want to bow, you can hold their heads down and make them bow."

"Really?" Ye Chulian was a little confused. Holding someone's head down, how capable would one have to be to do that?

Ye Wenyan continued: "Also, you asked me why I helped those people in the outer city. Actually, what I said about helping whoever I wanted to help was not entirely true. Do you want to hear the real reason?"

"think."

"Well, the truth is that the outer city is more difficult to govern than the inner city. When encountering such a disaster, the inner city will not be in chaos, but the outer city will collapse if you are not careful. Do you know what collapse means? It means that it cannot be controlled and becomes a pile of loose sand. Of course, it is better to collapse into loose sand, because the fear is that the loose sand will gather again and form a force that needs to be suppressed. All the uprisings in history are uprisings by the lower classes. The probability of rebellion by the upper classes is very low, unless it is a conspiracy to usurp the throne or a fight for the throne among princes. The reason why the lower classes revolt is usually because of unequal distribution, shortage of food and clothing, famine, disaster, which are all factors that promote rebellion. So I have to go to the outer city!"

She took a deep breath and continued, "This country has lost two great generals and an old monarch. Now the new emperor has just ascended the throne and has encountered such a natural disaster before he can rule the country. How many people are waiting to see him make a fool of himself! That child calls me sister, so I can't let him become a joke."

Ye Chulian sincerely envied, "The emperor is so lucky to have a sister like you to help him like this."

"You helped him too." Ye Wenyan said, "I heard from Zhuier that you gave him a lot of ideas, and each idea was on point, and the emperor was very happy. So Chu Lian..." She stopped, "I came to find you, first to see if you were bullied too badly by the old lady, and second to ask you for a favor."

"what's up?"

"Go to the palace. Now that the disaster has just passed, there is a lot of work to be done. Go and give him some advice."

Ye Chulian was a little panicked, "I, I go to give advice to the emperor? Is it possible? Fourth sister, I don't know how to do it!"

"It doesn't matter whether you know how to do it or not. Just answer whatever he asks, or just chat to relieve his boredom."

Ye Chulian was somewhat tempted, not because she could go to the palace to talk to the emperor, but because she suddenly thought that the Fourth Prince might also be in the palace! If she went, would she be able to see him again?

So he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go, but how can I get into the palace? When can I go?"

"Now." Ye Wenyan said, "I'll let Ji Rong take you, and the imperial guards will let you go."

Ji Rong flashed out from the darkness and leaned towards Ye Chulian, "Fifth Miss, please follow me!"
