Chapter 220 Yu Ziche
Chapter 220 Yu Ziche
Emperor Qinglong cleared his throat and put on an elder's attitude, "Come on, call me uncle and let me hear it."
The little girl has always called him Uncle Dog in her heart and has never called him properly!
Today's opportunity is rare, he can't miss it.
This time Song Yunxi did not complain again, but called out obediently: "Uncle Master."
Emperor Qinglong said to Song Wentian happily, "Wentian, it turns out that only you can handle this daughter of yours."
There was a smile in Song Wentian's eyes and eyebrows, and one could tell at a glance that he was in a very good mood.
When Ji Ziche came back, he saw his master and uncle drinking and chatting happily. Song Yunxi, who was sleeping on the table, was obviously drunk. Her fair cheeks were rosy and she looked very well-behaved.
Ji Ziche smiled and sat down: "Is there anything good happening today? Even Xiao Si is drunk."
Emperor Qinglong's eyes flashed with mischief: "Your master is happy today. I'm afraid all the good things that happen to him in the rest of his life combined won't make him as happy as today."
Ji Ziche also discovered that his master, who had always been indifferent to the world, had a more worldly air today, and the smile in his eyes could not be hidden.
This made Ji Ziche curious: "Master, what happened today?"
What could make Master so happy?
"Who else could make your master so happy except this little girl?"
Emperor Qinglong raised his chin and pointed at the sleeping Song Yunxi: "The little girl finally called me daddy again today."
Ji Ziche was so surprised that he was stunned. It took him a long time to come back to his senses: "Really?"
Emperor Qinglong raised his eyebrows in displeasure: "I heard it with my own ears, how could it be false?"
After so many years, Ji Ziche has forgotten the scene when the cute little kid always opened his arms and called out "Daddy, hold me, daddy, hold me" in a baby voice.
The little girl grew up in her master's arms. Many people in Shengyun Mountain privately commented that the master was too indulgent towards her, fearing that such a spoiled young lady would not be able to handle the important task of being the head of the sect.
But they all like that kind of spoiled girl who won't suffer any grievance.
If those people had not plotted against Xiao Si later, his adopted identity would never have been exposed, and Xiao Si would not have been bothered by his background for so many years.
Over the years, they have become accustomed to Xiao Si calling them Master, but have forgotten how the Master feels.
Dad and Master are different after all.
Ji Ziche was also extremely happy: "I have to go talk to the eldest brother and the third brother about this."
He could already imagine how happy they were.
"Let's go tomorrow. It's so late now. You're always climbing walls and climbing roofs. If people find out, they will think my guards and secret guards are useless!"
Ji Ziche rarely showed his naivety: "Uncle is right."
Emperor Qinglong glared at him angrily: "You said the surname Ye would be much better, but you insisted on having the surname Yu."
Ji Ziche was grateful in his heart: "I know what my uncle means, but no matter what my last name is, I am your nephew and the master's apprentice. No one dares to look down on me."
If he was willing to change his surname to Ye, his uncle would naturally be happy and would remove all obstacles for him. However, neither the clan members nor the Queen Mother would agree easily. They might even take the opportunity to propose some conditions to force his uncle to compromise.
This is what he doesn't want to see.
Moreover, the Duke of Yingguo and his son were loyal to the court and the people. The surname Yu meant no loss to him and was also a comfort to the Duke of Yingguo and his son.
Song Wentian took a sip of wine and asked, "Has the matter of recognizing your ancestors and returning to your ancestral home been decided?"
Ji Ziche nodded: "The Duke of England has already been decided."
Song Wentian's drunken voice was lazy: "If he causes you to be criticized, then I don't mind making his son childless."
For him, Ji Ziche changed his surname to Yu only because of the dedication of his father and son to the court and the people. However, if they dared to let his apprentice be criticized, he would definitely not agree to change his surname to Yu.
Emperor Qinglong smiled and said to Ji Ziche: "The rule of Shengyun Mountain to protect the weak has been carried forward by your master."
"After you change your surname back to Yu, take Xi'er to see the situation of the Duke of Ying."
Song Wentian told him the decision he and Song Yunxi had discussed: "I was originally going to go, but Xi'er is better at detoxification."
"I'll tell the British Council."
The matter of treating Yu Xiunian was delayed until he returned to his ancestral home. He understood that his master wanted to tell everyone in the Yu family that they were treating him because of him, Ji Ziche, so that no one in the Yu family would dare to look down on him.
From childhood to adulthood, the master has always protected them in his own way.
Just like the time when he was almost killed by Ji Xuze, even though it happened before he became his disciple, his master still took revenge for him.
The master rushed into the Su'an Earl's Mansion without paying attention to anyone around, and destroyed Ji Xuze's years of martial arts training in front of the princess' astonishment. He even used his true energy to cut the tendons in Ji Xuze's hands, making it impossible for him to practice martial arts anymore.
Song Wentian narrowed his eyes slightly: "No one can look down upon my disciple, Song Wentian!"
Ji Ziche's ancestral recognition ceremony was very grand. Although he himself did not care, Master Song Wentian and his disciples were very satisfied. This was enough to prove that the Duke of England recognized and valued this legitimate grandson.
On the same day, Duke Yingguo submitted a memorial requesting that his eldest grandson Yu Ziche be named Crown Prince, and Emperor Qinglong agreed with a smile on his face.
"Thank you, Princess."
The eldest princess also went to the palace to meet Yu Ziche in person, but her joy instantly disappeared after her son's distant and polite words.
"Zi Che, you still won't forgive me?"
The eldest princess looked sad: "You can recognize the Yu family, why don't you give me a chance?"
Yu Ziche really didn't know what to say to her.
Song Yunxi couldn't bear to watch it any longer, and asked coldly, "Does the princess really not understand, or is she pretending to be confused?"
The eldest princess really has a mixture of love and hate for Song Yunxi. If this girl is willing to speak up for her, given her son's love for his sister, she would definitely give her a chance to make amends as the girl wishes.
"My second brother was willing to recognize the Duke of Yingguo's family because they had no idea of my existence before. Yu Xiunian was also a victim in this matter, just like my second brother."
"But when the Duke of England learned about my second brother's existence, he immediately showed his sincerity, which was the key to my second brother's final decision."
The eldest princess looked sad: "I just want to make amends..."
Song Yunxi interrupted her coldly: "The damage caused cannot be repaired at all, why should the princess deceive herself?"
After saying that, Song Yunxi ignored her and pulled Yu Ziche: "Second brother, let's go1"
After the brother and sister left, Emperor Qinglong and Song Wentian appeared.
The eldest princess couldn't help but complain: "You two are just standing there watching and you won't help me?"
Emperor Qinglong sighed helplessly: "Royal sister, why do you have to make things difficult for Zi Che?"
