Chapter 22 Resignation
Putting down the cup, Ye Xiche said to Li Jin, "This time, thanks to the help of Brother Li, the little sister's condition can be stabilized so quickly."
Li Jin sighed and said, "My virtuous brother is still unfamiliar with me. You are always so polite to me. Compared with your life-saving kindness, what is this little thing?"
Ye Xiche said with a smile, "In fact, there is one thing to discuss with you today. I am in the public middle school. My father told me before going out that once my mother and little sister are arranged, I should return as soon as possible. Today, with the generous help of Brother Li, my little sister's matter has been solved. I want to entrust my mother and little sister to Brother Li to take care of it on my behalf, and I'm going to leave in a day or two. I wonder if it's convenient for Brother Li?
Li Jinxin thought it would be best to leave Yun'er here alone, but her mother didn't say that she wanted to stay with her, and he couldn't open her mouth to bombard her. Anyway, as long as Yun'er could stay in her own courtyard, she said anything, so she said frankly, "We had already agreed about Yun'er. Yes, Yun'er will stay with me until she recovers. There is no inconvenience. Since you have a public office and it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, I will not force it. Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my aunt and Yuner.
Ye Xiche stood up and bowed deeply and said, "Then please ask Brother Li for everything. In this case, I'll ask someone to pack some luggage and leave early tomorrow morning. As for Yun'er's recovery here, please ask Brother Li to send me a letter about the return trip, and I'll send someone to pick it up.
Li Jin also stood up and replied: "Don't worry, I'll leave everything to you."
Hearing the eldest brother say that he wanted to go back, Ye Ziyun didn't sleep. He leaned up and listened to them settle the matter. Ye Ziyun raised his voice to Ye Xiche, "Brother, you are going back tomorrow. Just talk to me today."
Without hindering the warm time of the family, Li Jin got up and said goodbye: "Then the virtuous brother will go to accompany Yuner. I'll go back first. If there is anything, you can go to the Wind Tower to find me."
Thinking that there were indeed some things that needed to be discussed with his mother and Yun'er, Ye Xiche did not leave him. He politely sent Li Jin away and went into the room with the princess. After the princess sat down on the rust stool in front of Ye Ziyun's bed, Qiu Shuang retreated. Ye Xiche sat down across the table and said, "Mother, there are some things I need to discuss with you."
The princess said, "Is it about leaving someone?"
Ye Xiche nodded and said, "Yes, mother. When I came here, I planned to buy a house alone here, so I brought so many people, but now since I live in someone else's house, it's a little difficult to use so many people.
The princess asked him, "Who are you going to take with you?"
Ye Xiche looked at Ye Ziyun and asked her, "Let Yun'er say first to see who she wants to stay?"
Ye Ziyun said carelessly, "I don't want anyone. It's enough for you to leave me four in spring, summer, autumn and winter."
The princess agreed with her: "It's almost the same. In addition to serving Yun'er, Mr. Li will not let them do anything else. Although Yun'er is in poor health and needs more people, four are enough. As for me, I don't need that much. Just leave Zhang Mo and Li Mo, and you can take the rest back.
Ye Xiche felt as if there were too few people left and didn't agree: "Is it too little? It's better to leave a few more by my mother's side. There are too few people. I'm afraid that if something happens at that time will not work."
The princess waved her hand and said, "It's not necessary. It's also a burden for the host's family to leave too much here. It's not good."
Ye Xiche was thinking about it, so he didn't object anymore. Thinking that there were also stew manager Lin and those bodyguards, he asked, "What about stewor Lin, and how many of those bodyguards do you want to keep?"
The princess thought for a moment and said, "Sin charge Lin definitely doesn't have to stay here. This is not our house. It's useless to stay here. It's better to go back with you. As for those guards, just leave about ten, right? Oh, by the way, how many bodyguards did you bring when you came?
Ye Xiche lowered his head and thought for a moment and said, "It should be about fifty. Will it be too little to leave only ten? It's better to leave twenty. After all, this is in Xianguo. In case something happens, you can't even find a response."
"It's not good for you to leave so many people behind and put them all in this other courtyard. After all, this is the place of others, and it's okay for ordinary servants. These are all good at martial arts. We are not familiar with the place here. It's a big problem for them to arrange too many people."
For the sake of safety, Ye Ziyun felt that he could not be careless at this point. It must be impossible if there were too few people. She thought for a moment and said, "I have an idea. I don't know if it's okay?"
Ye Xiche looked at her and said, "Oh, what do you have? Tell me."
Ye Ziyun held his forehead and said, "In fact, it's quite simple. When you leave tomorrow, you will take away all the bodyguards tomorrow, but leave 20 of them secretly. Tell Housekeeper Lin to go out to find the nearest place to settle them today. I think there should be someone in the dark in Mr. Li's courtyard. It won't let our people guard here at all, so we don't need them to watch here every day. We just send someone to find them when something happens.
Ye Xiche said while thinking, "On the first day, I found that there were a lot of people in this courtyard in the dark. Our people really can't get too close to avoid some unnecessary misunderstandings with the master. Your method is good, but I'm afraid that the time is too tight and it's too late.
Ye Ziyun was anxious: "What are you afraid of? It's too late. You can take all the people away tomorrow. Leave a few to deal with this matter before leaving. Anyway, they are all riding horses. It should be easy to catch up with you."
Ye Xiche touched his chin and felt that it made sense, so he asked the princess's opinion: "Mother, do you think this is okay?"
The princess looked at Ye Ziyun with admiration and said, "Yun'er's idea is a good idea. Let's do it."
Seeing that everyone agreed, Ye Xiche invited Linger outside and said to her, "In addition to spring, summer, autumn and winter, and Zhang Yu and Li Yu beside my wife, tell the rest of the people to go down to pack their bags and leave home early tomorrow morning."
Linger answered "yes" crisply and went out to look for someone.
Ye Xiche went to the bed and sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Yun'er and said, "Little girl, the eldest brother is leaving tomorrow. You are used to getting up late, so you don't have to get up in the morning to see me off. But you have to be obedient here. There can't be anything that happened last time. Take good medicine and try to get better as soon as possible. I'll send someone to pick you up. How about going back to the Spring Festival with your mother?
Thinking that the eldest brother is leaving early tomorrow morning, Ye Ziyun was a little unhappy and said pitifully, "I don't want my eldest brother to leave. I want my eldest brother to be here with me."
Ye Xiche touched her little face and said sadly, "Okay, don't be unhappy. Isn't there still a mother here with you? Or, when I go back, let your second brother accompany you, okay? Anyway, he has nothing to do. Let him go out and have a look.
Ye Ziyun stared in surprise, grabbed Ye Xiche's hand and said excitedly, "Really, do you really want my second brother to accompany me? Brother, do you know that before leaving, the second brother whispered to me that he would come to me. I didn't expect you to think of it with the second brother this time. It's good.
The princess laughed on one side: "Your second brother is really, restless for a moment, and wants to run out all day long."
Thinking about the discussion, Ye Xiche stroked Ye Ziyun's hair and said, "Yun'er, the eldest brother is leaving tomorrow. Some of them have to be handed over, so I won't accompany you, okay?"
Ye Ziyun glanced at him and said angrily, "You don't want to be with me so much. Humph, let's go, let's go, let's go, mother, too. No one wants to accompany me. I want to stay alone."
Ye Xiche came forward to hold her, circled her in his arms, stroked her back and coaxed softly, "Okay, okay, good Yuner, if the eldest brother doesn't leave, I'll stay here with you for a while, okay?"
It's still the same as when I was a child. The eldest brother would often hold her like this, lie on his shoulder, smell the faint fragrance of rest on his body, and deeply miss this feeling of peace of mind. I don't know when the eldest brother no longer hugged her without scruples like when she was a child. She misses the eldest brother's arms very much and wants to hold him so quietly. She just regards this as the brother's caring and warm embrace, but this is not allowed in secular eyes, so Ye Ziyun can only suppress his greedy eyes. . He sighed and thought, this is the last time. No matter how warm the eldest brother's arms is, he can no longer miss it. He took a deep breath. Ye Ziyun broke free from the eldest brother's arms and said, "Well, it's Yun'er's wayward. If you have something to do, go and do it quickly. Don't delay tomorrow's trip."
Ye Xiche touched her cheek and asked her softly, "It's really okay. That's great. Don't you really want your mother to be here with you?"
Ye Ziyun shook her head and said, "No, it's this time. I'm a little sleepy. I want to sleep for a while. Mom will go back to sleep?"
The princess nodded and said, "Well, since you are tired, let's take a rest. Let's go first and come back later."
Ye Ziyun said "Uh-huh" and waited for her mother and eldest brother to go out one after another before she lay down. Let go. After all, the eldest brother will not be the support of his life. He can't pester him anymore and make himself a burden to him.
Listening to the wind tower, Li Jin leaned against the desk by the window with a book. While drinking tea, he turned over the book in his hand boredly. Ye Xiche came this way in the distance, holding a sword in his hand. Li Jinnu pouted and motioned the standing waitan to go out to see what was going on. He also put down the book and took a sip of tea and waited.
After a while, I heard Ye Xiche talking to the little man in front of the corridor: "Is your son there? I'm looking for him."
The little man replied to him: "The prince is here, please come in."
