Wen Zhigu paused for a moment, then asked, "Do you want daddy?"
Wen Jian was no longer as hesitant as before. When her mother asked, she calmly raised her head and asked, "Will mother be with daddy?"
Wen Zhigu looked at the little guy and shook his head gently: "No."
Will not.
After finally escaping from the devil's cave, she would never come back to him again, never.
When Wen Jian heard the expected answer, she was not very surprised. She just looked forward and answered her mother's words: "Wen Jian is with mother."
The night fell, quietly hiding the loss in the little guy's eyes from being seen.
…
What Wen Zhigu didn't know at that time was that Ji Xubai was already on his way back to the court.
And Ji Xili, after being pardoned, did not follow them back, but went to Seoul, accompanied by Sheng Zhiyu.
During the four years when Ji Xubai was in exile in Bei Ge, he did not just serve blindly. He used his talents to open up an unprecedented avenue in Bei Ge. Moreover, this waterway also intersected several waterways. As a result, the roads in Beige have become extremely smooth and smooth. There are more people traveling to and from Beige for business. As a result, Beige is different from before and is getting richer year by year.
The local magistrate reported the memorial document to the court. When the emperor saw the memorial, he was mostly pleased. He quickly made a decree to remove the Ji family from their status as prisoners and allow the Ji family to return to Beicheng to live in peace. , and restored Ji Xubai's status as Taifu in the Hanlin Academy, and named the waterway opened by Ji Xubai Ji Road.
"Xu Bai, after meeting the emperor, go and bring Zhiru back. Don't let her stay alone in Ancheng with her children..." Lord Ji opened the curtain of the carriage, four years of life in Mobei , made Lord Ji much older, but because he was able to go home, Lord Ji felt happy at the thought of finally being able to see his grandson.
Mrs. Hou whispered angrily, for fear of being heard by Ji Xubai outside: "What's there to take on? When the whole family has become a fugitive, and she is the only one who has gone away, what qualifications does she have to be a member of the Ji family?" people… "
Lord Ji shouted at her: "Shut up. If you say such things again in front of your friends after you go back, I won't be able to forgive you, let alone Xu Bai."
Mrs. Hou had no choice but to hold Ji Yi and turned away without speaking.
Ji Xubai was riding a horse. Naturally, he didn't hear what Mrs. Hou muttered in the carriage. He only heard his father's words. His eyes were half-squinted and his expression was cold. It was hard for him to tell his father that after four years, many things had changed. Things have changed and people have changed. Back then, he used Wen Youyi's excuse to torture her, threatened her to marry him, and forced her to give birth to his child. Later... his family was exiled, so he had no right to ask her to go home.
But it wasn't just the father who wanted to see his grandson;
But he knew it was a long shot.
With her temperament, the possibility of staying in Ancheng is not high.
He didn't know if she was still in Ancheng. If she was gone, where could he find her...
After returning to Beicheng, Ji Xubai went to see the emperor with his decree and reported the waterway construction in the past few years one by one.
Sheng Nanchen was very pleased to hear this. He knew that Ji Xubai was talented, otherwise he would not have become a Tutor in the Hanlin Academy at such a young age.
