[052] A New Beginning

In the northeast corner of the imperial capital "Beiyang Imperial City", a small river flows through. The river water is extremely clear, nourishing the lush willows on the shore.

In the imperial city where every inch of land is valuable, it is rare that such a vast area has not been developed and used for real estate by unscrupulous merchants.

Those unscrupulous real estate developers do not want to develop, but dare not. Because in this huge area, a very important "big boss" has taken over it.

This "big boss" is nothing else, but Ye Junlin's senior brother, Wei Ye.

Wei Ye is an honest official, and he can be said to be honest. However, he has accumulated countless mysterious crystals and gold coins. Otherwise, he would not have the financial resources to buy such a huge area.

The honest official has a wealth of wealth, which sounds unreasonable. However, the facts are truly placed in front of everyone. This makes all officials who have been rectified by Wei Ye very envious and even hate them.

Wei Ye was extremely talented in martial arts. In addition, he was proficient in poetry, playing chess, and listening to music... He was proficient in almost all of the literati's elegance.

Wei Ye is best at calligraphy in the nine things in Wentu. He is extremely calm and writes handsome regular script. The delicate fonts contain a little bit of gold and stone, and the iron painted silver hooks have a unique charm.

The characters written by Wei Ye are quite popular. Once sold, they will inevitably cause crazy buying from major merchants and collectors. On the one hand, it comes from Wei Ye's identity; on the other hand, it is Wei Ye's calligraphy, which is indeed well written.

Officials living in the imperial capital always feel awkward if they don’t hang a few words about Wei Ye at home, and they are even embarrassed to invite others to come to their house to sit. Wei Ye’s wealth comes from this.

Wei Ye didn't like noise, but he liked peace and quiet. So he built his mansion here.

In the Liulin River, such a mansion is also considered to be the only one in the entire imperial city. The mansion is not large, at least it is smaller than those of those officials of the same status as him.

Although it is not large in scale, it is built with great charm: black tiles and white walls, flying pavilions and flowing green, brocade halls and gardens, arched bridges are like the moon, quiet and simple, as if they were a different world.

Everyone says that Wei Ye has taste, but they don’t know that the one in Wei Ye’s family is truly tasteful.

Because this mansion was built according to her intention.

......

......

One morning, the dew had not yet dissipated. The green grass in the forest was still wet.

A young man in blue clothes walked past the green grass. He ignored his slightly wet trouser legs and waited silently outside the door of the "Wei Mansion".

The boy's eyes were full of spirit, or rather, full of hope.

He stood under the stone lion outside the mansion, looking at the vermilion gate, and secretly sighed: My senior brother is so good at enjoying it.

"Cry--"

After about half a stick of incense, an old man, who looked like an old servant, walked out of the door with a broom in his hand, as if he was about to sweep away the fallen leaves at the door.

Ye Junlin stepped forward and punched, and said softly: "This old man, I'm going to visit 'Mr. Wei Ye'. I wonder if you can report it."

The old servant raised his head, looked at Ye Junlin, and asked and answered softly: "Young Master, who are you?"

"My younger generation, Ye Junlin." Ye Junlin bowed and replied.

"It turns out to be Mr. Ye. My master has instructed me that if you come to him, you don't need to inform me and just go in." After the old man said that, he took Ye Junlin to the mansion.

Wei Ye's mansion was planted with flowers and plants. Although it was not a precious variety, it was pleasing to the eye. Between the flowers and plants, there was a path made of bluestone. The path was not wide and could only allow two people to walk side by side.

The winding paths are secluded and winding. Ye Junlin followed the old servant for a long time before coming to a wide courtyard.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Ye Junlin felt a powerful pressure and rushed towards him.

Wei Ye is practicing swordsmanship.

He was holding an extremely heavy giant sword in his hand, dancing violently.

The moves that Wei Ye practiced were extremely ordinary, and they were simply chopping, stabbing, swinging, and chopping, without any mystery. Even so, Ye Junlin still felt an extremely terrifying combat power.

For a moment, it seems like something is realized.

When Wei Ye saw Ye Junlin, he made a sword force with both hands. Then, the sword force with strong wind was buried.

"Oh, this is a rare guest in the early morning." Wei Ye teased.

"I said, senior brother, I'm here to find you, but there are serious things. Can you be more serious?" Ye Junlin complained silently.

"Okay." Wei Ye put on a piece of clothing and made a 'please' move: "It says inside."

Ye Junlin and Wei Ye came to an outer hall and sat down casually. Ye Junlin's fingers bent slightly, and the light shone on the space ring. Then, the sword god Emperor Jade, Red Flame Sword, Red Ghost Blood Flag, the jade seal of the "East Palace Ruwei" and a sealed light ball appeared in front of Wei Ye.

"What is this to do?" Wei Ye said in confusion.

Ye Junlin stood up and bowed to Wei Yechang: "A few days ago, my senior brother had already understood the education of his junior brother with the hand of 'Xu Boshan'."

Wei Ye was a little surprised, waved his hand and smiled and said, "Tell me about it in detail."

"The senior brother thinks that my junior brother is too dependent on the 'Sword God Emperor Jade' and other external forces. This will affect himself and his understanding of the path of cultivation. So I hope I can grow on my own. At the same time, I also hope that I can hone my character and restrain my anger and arrogance."

When Wei Ye heard this, he raised his thumb and praised: "I didn't expect that you, a boy, have such a good understanding. I was actually seen through my 'trick' so quickly."

Ye Junlin smiled shyly and continued, "So I hope my senior brother can help me and keep these things. I want to grow up by relying solely on my own strength."

Wei Ye nodded, and the space ring in his hand flashed with a glimmer of light, and he put away Ye Junlin's items. At the same time, he took out a long sword of a "low-level spiritual weapon" from the space ring. He handed the long sword to Ye Junlin and smiled and said, "Don't worry, as for the 'second prince', I will help you with it."

After hearing this, Ye Junlin bowed to Wei Yechang again: "In this way, I thank my senior brother."

"You're welcome." Wei Ye smiled, trying to keep Ye Junlin for breakfast, but Ye Junlin politely refused.

Ye Junlin turned around and left the mansion, but Wei Ye did not see him off. He looked at Ye Junlin's back and murmured: "Master, the disciple you have taken in is much better than me, a 'half-bastard' swordsman."

But Ye Junlin left the "Wei Mansion", raised his head, looked at the willows swaying by the river and the blue sky above the willows, and felt extraordinary at ease.

"I always have to give myself a new beginning!"
