PDLP Chapter 291 Brother's Letter
Chapter 291 Brother's Letter
"Thank you for your concern, God of the Nation. I have just cast a calming spell to help the Royal Grandmother fall asleep. The Royal Grandmother is in stable condition now, so please rest assured, God of the Nation." Bei Jiye's attitude was always gentle as he explained the current situation to Yi Qianhuan.
Yi Qianhuan responded and explained the purpose of his visit.
"The Ancient Strategy originally belonged to the national god, so I should return it. Guanghao, go to my residence and get the Ancient Strategy and bring it to the national god." Bei Jiye made a gesture of invitation to Yi Qianhuan after giving his instructions to his men. "It will take some time to deliver the Ancient Strategy. Why don't you invite the national god to the back hall to drink some tea and wait for a while."
"Okay." Yi Qianhuan agreed and went to the back hall with Bei Jiye.
Drinking tea with Bei Jiye, Yi Qianhuan listened to a lot of what Bei Jiye said and found that the second prince was really accomplished in the mysterious arts.
Gradually, they started talking. Yi Qianhuan and Bei Jiye chatted a lot and drank a cup of tea.
"After meeting the God of State today, I am sure that the rumor is indeed unbelievable. Before entering the palace, I had heard people say that the God of State was arrogant, but I never thought that after meeting the God of State today, I would find that the God of State is such a talkative person. This is exactly what I heard from General Yi before. It seems that brothers and sisters understand each other best, and only General Yi truly understands the God of State."
Yi Qianhuan paused while serving tea: "Your Highness the Second Prince knows my elder brother?"
"We are not just acquaintances. A Yuan and I are also good friends." Bei Jiye's face was obviously a little shaken when he mentioned Yi Qianyuan. "When our Yunzhao Kingdom and Xijiang Kingdom were at war, the soldiers on the border were in danger. I was always worried about them, but I could not help them. So I could only write some of my opinions, hoping to help Duke Yi."
"I didn't expect that my insights would be useful and won the praise of Duke Yi. They also attracted the attention of A Yuan. Since then, A Yuan and I have maintained correspondence."
"Although A Yuan and I have only met a few times, we appreciate each other and have established an invisible friendship long ago. Six years ago, during the Battle of Xiye, A Yuan knew that the battle was extremely dangerous, so he wrote to me and asked me to help take care of the Lord God of the Country." Bei Jiye said, and really took out a letter from his arms.
This letter looks old, with deep creases and even some worn-off edges. One can tell at a glance that it must have been read frequently.
Yi Qianhuan looked at the familiar handwriting on it, took the letter with both hands, and gently opened it.
Yi Qianyuan's strong and powerful handwriting caught her eyes.
From the words, it can be seen that Yi Qianyuan and Bei Jiye have a very good relationship. They call each other brothers, and her elder brother did mention the danger of the battle in Xiye, and hoped that Bei Jiye could take good care of her.
"Although we won the battle of Xiye, we paid a huge price. A Yuan's life or death is unknown. I was extremely sad when I found out. I have always wanted to find you and fulfill A Yuan's last wish for me. Unfortunately, my ability is limited. By the time I rushed back, you had already left Pingyang Marquis Mansion..."
"It's just fate, Second Prince, don't mind it." Yi Qianhuan read the letter carefully several times, "Second Prince, I wonder if you can give this letter to me?"
She could tell that the handwriting on it was indeed her eldest brother's, so this item could be considered an item left behind by her eldest brother.
Even if she were to use the mysterious techniques in the "Ancient Strategy" next, she would need something related to her elder brother as a medium in order to establish contact with him.
Therefore, this letter was extremely important to her.
"Of course. If the National God needs it, I have other letters and can give them to the National God as well." Bei Jiye said.
"Okay, then I'll trouble the Second Prince." Yi Qianhuan said, and there was a little more gentleness in his eyes when he looked at Bei Jiye.
She was not interested in the second prince himself, but since he was her eldest brother's good friend and had helped her, she would naturally treat him well.
Bei Jiye hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Lord Guoshen, may I ask if A Yuan is still alive?"
Yi Qianhuan did not answer immediately, but looked at Bei Jiye deeply.
Bei Jiye sensed the temptation in Yi Qianhuan's eyes and said hurriedly: "The national god misunderstood. I didn't mean anything else. I just felt sorry for A Yuan. He was full of ambition and fought for the Yunzhao Kingdom. But after the battle of Xiye, just because his body was not found, someone falsely accused him of colluding with the enemy country. Every time I hear this, I always feel heartbroken. I just hope that A Yuan can return triumphantly and prove his innocence!"
"The innocent are innocent. We in the Duke Yi's Mansion are loyal to the Yun Zhao Kingdom, and people all over the world know it. If someone wants to frame us, it is done deliberately. We in the Duke Yi's Mansion do not have to prove anything to those villains." Yi Qianhuan was calm, with a cold look in his eyes.
Bei Jiye's eyes moved fiercely, and the shock in his eyes quickly turned into admiration, "The national god is right, I am narrow-minded. However, I still hope that A Yuan can come back."
"I hope so too." Yi Qianhuan did not give Bei Jiye a definite answer.
At present, it seems that the friendship between Bei Jiye and his eldest brother is real.
But people's hearts are hard to predict, and six years have passed. She doesn't know Bei Jiye well, so it's impossible for her to tell him that her elder brother is still alive but his whereabouts are unknown.
Yi Qianhuan thought so and his eyes fell on the letter again.
The familiar handwriting was like fine needles piercing her heart. She read the letter again and saw that the servant Guanghao had returned.
Guanghao held a rectangular brocade box in his hand and handed it to Bei Jiye.
Bei Jiye handed it to Yi Qianhuan: "Sorry to have kept the national god waiting for a long time. This is the Ancient Strategy that the national god wants."
Yi Qianhuan took the brocade box and opened it.
The ancient books were made of parchment, but because they had been around for so long, the pages had already turned yellow and some of the corners were missing.
When Yi Qianhuan saw this book, he felt a strange feeling in his heart and reached out his hand to slowly stroke the book.
Although it was the first time she saw this book, she felt a strong sense of familiarity.
She had a hunch that as long as she could learn the mysterious techniques in this book, she would be able to find her elder brother.
"Your Highness the Second Prince, I want to get the letter my eldest brother gave you back as soon as possible." Yi Qianhuan looked up at Bei Jiye.
Bei Jiye agreed immediately: "In three days at most, I will be able to deliver those letters to the residence of Lord Guoshen."
"Thank you very much." Yi Qianhuan couldn't wait to go back to study these ancient mystical arts, so he said goodbye to Bei Jiye in a hurry and left.
After leaving the palace and taking a car back to the house, Yi Qianhuan returned to her room alone and studied the spells in "Ancient Strategy" diligently.
This study lasted all night. When Yi Qianhuan heard a knock on the door, he found that the sky outside the window was already completely bright.
"Mom, are you up?" There was a knock on the door by Yi Mobao.
