"I…" Jun Xie lowered his gaze, and after a long mont of silence, he said, "I don't know… I don't know how I will react. For my whole life, I have hated him, but recently, my opinion of him is changing… Maybe I will do what Brother Fang has just said. I will listen to his side of the story."
Zheng Xiang smiled, "Alright, then today, I promise you guys - I will definitely give my parents a chance if they are alive. And I hope they are because I have a lot of questions to ask."
Just then, the carriage ca to a halt.
"Young Master, we have reached ho."
A guard from outside called out.
'Ho, huh?' Ye Tian Yun smiled while shaking his head.
A few monts later, all three of them were standing out, and the two young ladies were also stepping out of the carriage.
Ye Tian Yun turned towards Jun Xie and Zheng Xian, "Co to my courtyard after a few minutes. I will go ahead and have a chat with Pri Minister Fang. anwhile, you can bring Miss Wu and Sister Bai back to the Guest Courtyard."
"Alright," Jun Xie replied, while Zheng Xiang nodded.
Ye Tian Yun bade them farewell and headed for the Main Courtyard...
It was past dinner ti, and Ye Tian Yun wanted to et Pri Minister Fang and inform him about his plan for closed-door cultivation and the planned visit to the Thunder Valley after five days.
It wasn't long before he found Pri Minister Fang. Unlike usual tis, the latter was sitting on a cushion on the Second Floor, with Madam Xin sitting beside him.
As Ye Tian Yun approached, he was able to hear their discussion, loud and clear.
"....is right," Madam Xin said, "This design is really good, what do you think?"
Pri Minister Fang nodded, "Yes, it's pretty exquisite. But there's too much golden design. It might seem a bit extravagant!"
"What extravagant? Hmph! It's my son's wedding, and you want to send normal flyers to invite everyone?" Madam Xin pouted.
Pri Minister Fang rolled his eyes, "Of course not, it's just, we don't need to act so high and mighty, do we?"
"Sigh, it's just one wedding," Madam Xin frowned, "It's the first wedding in the next generation. I don't know what you want to say, but I want my son to have the best!"
Pri Minister Fang sighed, "You think I don't want that? Sigh, alright, let's go with this one!"
"Yay!" Madam Xin's face instantly lit up with joy, "You're the best!"
"I know," Pri Minister Fang smiled, "We will have invitation cards ready in a few days. How is everything else going on? Have you decided on the dancers and other decorations?"
"I am still looking for the best," Madam Xin smiled, "As I said, for the next five days, I will plan everything and start with the arrangents!"
Pri Minister Fang couldn't help but smile upon seeing the excitent in Madam Xin's eyes, suddenly his expression faltered, and he turned his head towards the door.
The door was pushed open, and a young man stepped inside.
"Xiao Chen!" Madam Xin smiled, "You're back? How was the dinner, son?"
Ye Tian Yun smiled, "It was good. Really good. You should have co with . You would have definitely enjoyed it."
Pri Minister Fang shrugged, "I told you to talk to your mother about this."
Madam Xin rolled her eyes, "You two… how can we go with us? You're the one who was invited. It will look bad, and don't forget that the other party is our future in-laws!"
Ye Tian Yun sighed, "I should have asked them to pack so food… ugh, it was so tasty that I totally forgot about this."
"It's alright, son," Madam Xin smiled and moved her hands, gesturing at Ye Tian Yun, "Co here, first. And look at this."
Ye Tian Yun walked over and saw different types of exquisite scrolls in red, green, and yellow colors.
"Are these…"
"Yes," Madam Xin grinned, "These are samples for the wedding invitation! Which one do you like?"
Ye Tian Yun smiled and pointed at the one which Madam Xin had chosen earlier; he said, "This one is quite good."
"I know, right!" Madam Xin nodded with a proud expression, "You have good taste."
Pri Minister Fang rolled his eyes, "Alright, alright, anyway, what happened, Xiao Chen? Are you here just to talk, or is it sothing else?"
Ye Tian Yun took a breath and said, "I am here to discuss two things. One, I will be going into closed-door cultivation for the next five days, and secondly, once I am out, I will be leaving the clan to visit the Thunder Valley."
"Hm? But son… your wedding…" Madam Xin frowned.
"I know, but I must go to the Thunder Valley."
Pri Minister Fang thought for a mont and said, "Well, if you promise that you aren't running away from the marriage, I will allow you to go."
Ye Tian Yun cleared his throat and said, "I am not running away."
Pri Minister Fang nodded, "Alright, I will prepare Golden Ferghana Horses for you. Are you planning to go alone?"
Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "No, I will be taking the other four with ."
"Oh, alright," Pri Minister Fang smiled, "I will have the horses arranged."
"Hmm," Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Alright, you guys continue, I will take my leave."
Madam Xin smiled, "Have so rest, son. And good luck with your cultivation."
"Thank you…" Ye Tian Yun smiled and, giving a light bow, he left the room, heading for Fang Chen's courtyard.
Madam Xin stared at the door through which Ye Tian Yun had left. Her smile had receded and her eyes had dimd.
It didn't take long before Pri Minister Fang noticed sothing amiss.
"What happened?" He asked.
Madam Xin sighed, "I think he knew the truth…"
"What?" Pri Minister Fang frowned, "Why did you think that? Su Ming promised he won't reveal the truth to him, at least not yet."
Madam Xin sighed, "It's not about that… it's just my gut feeling. Have you noticed one thing?"
"What?"
"Ever since Xiao Chen returned from the sect, not once has he called Mother or referred to you as Father…"
"...."
