Chapter 129 Letter

The letter was very long, so long that Ye Jinshu read it carefully for a long time but still couldn't finish it.

But the letter was also very short, so short that Ye Jinshu could summarize its content in just a few words.

The letter only said three things.

The first thing is to explain Ye Ruoyan's life experience. Ye Ruoyan is not a child of the Ye family, and will become a person from another world in the future. If this power from another world can be used, it can help the people and the country very well.

The second thing was to entrust Ye Jinshu to the care of the Emperor and Empress. He did not require Ye Jinshu to have any abilities, but only hoped that she could live as happily as possible.

The third thing was to write down the Taoist priest's prediction about the relationship between the two of them, and explain that if Ye Ruoyan is judged to be of great use to the country in the future, then he only hoped that the emperor and empress would at least spare Ye Jinshu's life, so that she could live out her life quietly away from the hustle and bustle.

These three things only took up one page of letter paper, and the remaining four pages were filled with the past.

Just from the words, Ye Jinshu could feel the reluctance. If possible, her mother would definitely want to go back to the past when she was dressed in fine clothes and rode horses with red sleeves fluttering.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing.

The last sentence of the letter was: I will spend the rest of my life guarding the mountains and rivers, don't worry.

Finally, the mountains and rivers were defended.

The country was saved.

The people's homes were also protected.

But Ye Jinshu has no home anymore.

On the day when Ye Jinshu saw herself being taken into the palace to be raised by the Emperor and Empress, the little Taoist priest stood outside the palace and watched her for a long time.

After that, the young Taoist settled down at the foot of the imperial city. He made a living by writing and selling paintings on weekdays. In his spare time, he also worked as a storyteller. He would sit in a restaurant and talk about the battle.

He also often inquired about Princess Anping. When he heard that the princess had a conflict with someone else, his first reaction was not to ask who was right or wrong, but just to ask if the princess had suffered any loss.

Everything was fine at the beginning. Ye Jinshu was protected by the emperor and empress. No matter whether she was right or not, she would be right in the end, and the little Taoist priest felt more at ease.

It was not until Ye Ruoyan began to show her talents that the young Taoist knew that the princess was going to suffer a loss, but with his current status he could not help at all.

In order to be closer to Ye Jinshu, the young Taoist priest found a way to become the prince's aide. Finally, he met Ye Jinshu after a long absence. At first sight, the young Taoist priest was stunned.

The daughter of those two men doesn't seem to be having a good life now.

No matter how powerful the young Taoist priest is, he is just an aide. He cannot influence the prince's decision, nor can he change the prince's determination to marry Ye Ruoyan.

Not long after Ye Ruoyan became the Crown Princess, Ye Jinshu was also expelled from the palace. It was said that she would be sent to another village to live alone.

The young Taoist wanted to follow him, but he learned that Ye Jinshu had committed suicide on the road.

Before Ye Jinshu committed suicide, Ye Ruoyan had gone there. When the young Taoist learned that Ye Jinshu had died and disappeared, he seemed to have lost his soul. He spent three years in a daze, and one day he came to the place where Ye Jinshu was said to have committed suicide.

When he looked over, the young Taoist happened to see Ye Ruoyan there too.

Ye Ruoyan was alone in an empty place, expressing her resentment.

"Ye Jinshu, I hate you, and I hate your Ye family."

"You died like this, a comfortable death, but you haven't experienced even one ten-thousandth of what I've been through."

Ye Ruoyan talked a lot, from the time she first came into this world, to when she was taken into the palace, and finally how she proved her worth and gained recognition under the hands of the Queen and the Crown Prince, and was finally able to start doing what she wanted to do, no matter how big or small.

But she didn't explain why she hated it so much.

The young Taoist was also very confused as to why Ye Ruoyan said that she hated Ye Jinshu and the Ye family. He always felt that as long as he could figure this out, he would know why Ye Jinshu and Ye Ruoyan were destined to be mortal enemies.

he asked.

At first Ye Ruoyan was unwilling to speak and even wanted to arrest the young Taoist priest, but the young Taoist priest explained Ye Ruoyan's identity and started with the words of a person from another world, which made Ye Ruoyan confess.

"In our world, there are many time-travel stories, just like me, traveling from one world to another. Some of them are protagonists, and they are able to thrive. Some are villains, and will be taught a lesson by the daughters of noble families in their original world. Others just want to live a peaceful and stable life, and try their best to hide their differences."

"Do you know which one I am?"

"Before coming here, I had things I wanted to do. I studied hard for more than 7 years. I memorized the acupuncture points on the human body when I was two years old. I could identify more than a thousand kinds of medicinal herbs when I was five years old. I memorized the medicinal properties and uses of these herbs when I was seven years old. I started seeing patients with my father when I was eight years old."

"They all said that I would become a great man, but then I encountered a patient making trouble, and after I helped my father block the knife, I came here as soon as I opened my eyes."

"I still have the memory of my last child in my mind. I saw her living alone in the farm with servants. These servants took advantage of the fact that she was young and ignorant, and often cheated and deducted money. I also saw that her so-called parents never came here to see her, just because she was a concubine's daughter."

"The reason why the child fell into the lake was because she heard that there were fish in the lake, but she had never eaten fish before, so she wanted to go to the lake to catch some. However, she could not swim and her servants were not around, so she drowned."

"The last thing the child thought of before he died was that he wished he could see his father and mother."

"From that time on, I thought that I would fulfill the child's wish, find the incompetent parents, and scold them to their faces. But I didn't wait for that. I only waited for the news that they died in battle."

"At that time, I thought that maybe the child's parents didn't love her, but the war didn't allow them to meet. Until I saw Ye Jinshu, I could tell at a glance that she was a child who grew up being loved."

"I didn't want to bring the grudges of the previous generation to Ye Jinshu, but she always opposed me and tortured me. She made me live in a remote palace. When it rained, the house leaked and there was no place to stand. If I was slow in paying respects to her, I would be punished to kneel. At that time, it was really difficult for me to survive, let alone continue what I wanted to do here."

"At that time, I thought, I need to climb up. And the prince is an excellent stepping stone."

"He is the crown prince, a future king who has weighed the pros and cons. As long as I can show my worth, he will help me."

"But everything went so smoothly, so smoothly that sometimes I often asked myself if I was dreaming. Even the day Ye Jinshu died didn't feel real to me."

"And now I know that everything is fake."
