Chapter 298 Family members plead
After finishing the funeral for Mr. Ruan, Ruan Qingqing and his family sat together drinking iced green bean drinks. After a long silence, Ruan Wantie stared at the cup in his hand and said in a muffled voice: "Daya, can you find a way to come back? We don't want any glory and wealth, we just want our family to live together in peace and stability."
"Father, I..."
Before Ruan Qingqing could answer, he continued in a deep voice, "I am worried that after a hundred years, I will also die with the regret of not being able to see you for the last time. After all, your Bale City is too far away from our Qingshui County."
"Yes, Daya, can you think of a way to come back? As for your elder sister, we thought about it, and we can even go to her house to visit her. We can also send her some good things if we get them at home. As for you, even if we think about it, what can we do? You are so far away from home, we really can't reach you..."
Wang's voice was choked with sobs as she spoke the last part.
Ruan Wantie continued, "In the past, we wouldn't have thought it was a big deal. It didn't matter if you were doing big things outside and couldn't take care of the family. But now that your grandfather is gone, I suddenly feel that all the glory and wealth in a person's life are empty, and only a complete family is real. Daya, your mother and I are getting older and can't do anything anymore. We just want our children to live where they can walk and take care of us if anything happens."
"Mom and Dad, I understand what you mean. In fact, I often miss you when I am in Bale City. Although news about you is often passed on to me, I have not seen it with my own eyes. Let me think of a solution first." Ruan Qingqing said hurriedly.
Ruan Shiping was not optimistic. "Sister, it would have been fine before. With the relationship between our family and the Second Prince, it would have been just a matter of a word for you to come back. But since what happened to you in Mo Liang, I'm afraid that wherever you stay now, the emperor will be worried about you."
"It's not that there is no chance at all." Ruan Shian held a different opinion.
"What do you mean?" Ruan Wantie immediately looked at him.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Ruan Shian did not keep anyone in suspense, "As long as the Second Prince takes the throne, Big Sister will be safe in our Yunqing. Everyone in this world may be afraid of Big Sister, except the Second Prince."
Ruan Qingqing also nodded in agreement, "That's true. Lord Zhou is different from ordinary people. He is more flexible and has a more open mind. If he were the king, I would have less resistance to returning to Yunqing."
"Then why don't you help the second prince to ascend to the throne, elder sister!" Ruan Shiping said, staring at Ruan Qingqing with burning eyes.
Wang's eyelids twitched as she listened, "Ping'er, you must not encourage your elder sister to cause trouble! Let's just be ordinary people and be quiet. As for who sits on the throne, it has nothing to do with us."
"You have too much hair and too little knowledge." Ruan Wantie frowned in disapproval. "Who sits on the throne has a great impact on us ordinary people. If he is enlightened and capable, not only will the court be clean, but we ordinary people will also live a more relaxed life. But if he is not wise and incompetent, not only will the officialdom be in chaos, but we ordinary people will also live a miserable life."
Ruan Shiping also said: "Now that my elder sister is so powerful, if she encounters those jealous monarchs, will they tolerate her existence? Unless my elder sister becomes the emperor herself."
"No, just three cities are enough to drain me dry. I don't want to be an emperor." Ruan Qingqing waved her hands hurriedly.
How desperate must she be to want to do such a strenuous job?
"Then elder sister, please let the second prince ascend the throne as soon as possible!" Ruan Shi'an said in a shocking manner.
