Chapter 1450: Once you have seen the ocean, all other waters are but puddles!
The next day, Yi Jingdong City's palace
Although several days had passed, Ye Ling, dressed in white, looked at her husband's tablet in the room, and endless grief suddenly welled up in her eyes.
Although the relationship between her and Wang Xuecheng had deteriorated sharply in the past few days and had even reached the point of separation, and Ye Ling had cursed Wang Xuecheng many times for a bad death, when she really heard the news of Wang Xuecheng's death that day, she fainted from tears.
Ye Ling has been in tears these past few days, and her mind always involuntarily recalls the good times they had together!
When Ye Ling was sixteen years old, she married the nineteen-year-old Wang Xuecheng at the order of her parents and the matchmaker. Although the two had no contact before marriage and did not know each other well enough, the boy and girl were very loving after marriage.
Soon Ye Ling welcomed the fruit of her love with Wang Xuecheng, and at this time their family also had double happiness. Wang Xuecheng became the shopkeeper from an apprentice, and his income increased several times, making the originally tight family instantly wealthy!
Ye Ling still remembers the day when Wang Xuecheng became the shopkeeper. He bought an old hen and stewed a pot of chicken soup for her while she was in confinement. Ye Ling will never forget the taste of that pot of chicken soup!
Although Wang Xuecheng later became a higher and higher official, his family conditions became better and better, and Ye Ling had eaten better food, but in Ye Ling's heart, the chicken soup she had that year was the best she had ever eaten, and that happy feeling in her heart was something she would never forget...
Just when Ye Ling was looking forward to her family's life getting better and better, the gears of fate began to turn quietly. Ye Mingsheng's strong rise changed the fate of many members of the Ye family, including Wang Xuecheng's fate!
According to the normal development trajectory, Wang Xuecheng would have been a profiteer all his life, but the appearance of Ye Mingsheng made him a big spy!
In pursuit of power, Wang Xuecheng became busier and busier, and he and Ye Ling spent less and less time together. At first, the naive Ye Ling thought that Wang Xuecheng was working hard for his work and for their family!
But later, all kinds of gossip about Wang Xuecheng appeared around Ye Ling. At first, Ye Ling was still willing to believe her husband and the father of her child, but when she really saw that scene with her own eyes, Ye Ling finally realized what kind of man Wang Xuecheng was!
Ye Ling cried and made a fuss about this, and she even fantasized that Wang Xuecheng would turn over a new leaf and change his mind, but she soon realized that this was just her wishful thinking!
At this point, Ye Ling hated Wang Xuecheng, this unfaithful man. At the same time, Ye Ling hated herself for being so blind as to fall in love with this playboy!
The relationship between the couple became more and more rigid, so Wang Xuecheng simply moved out of the house. Anyway, he had several houses and many women outside over the years. All of these women were young and beautiful, so wherever he lived was his home...
In fact, ever since Wang Xuecheng moved out of home, some of Ye Ling's family members have advised Ye Ling and Wang Xuecheng to divorce. After all, Ye Ling is only in her early thirties and not too old. She still has decades of life ahead of her. There is no need for her to waste time with Wang Xuecheng and continue to be a widow!
For this reason, an elder of the Ye family also talked to Wang Xuecheng, and Wang Xuecheng's attitude was that he neither agreed nor refused!
Although Wang Xuecheng's attitude was ambiguous, Ye Ling explicitly rejected the proposal. The reason she gave was for the sake of her own children. But now watching Wang Xuecheng leave, Ye Ling realized that although she said that Wang Xuecheng should die, she really wanted to eat this bastard alive!
But there was always a place for Wang Xuecheng in her heart. Although the two of them became enemies later on, they truly loved each other and had a happy time together. Unfortunately, the wealth that came later made this loving couple drift apart!
So Ye Ling has also thought about a question these days.
That is, if Ye Mingsheng had not risen strongly, and Wang Xuecheng had not become the big spy chief, what would have happened? This question may seem a bit outrageous now, but it is indeed what Ye Ling has thought about in her heart!
She felt that if all this had not happened, she would not be the noble lady she is today, and would not have the life of luxury she has now, but she and Wang Xuecheng might have continued to be in love and become a couple that others envy!
Unfortunately, time cannot be turned back. Neither she nor anyone else in the world can buy medicine for regret...
Just when Ye Ling was feeling sad, the housekeeper Wang Fugui came over and reported:
"Madam, I just heard a piece of news!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Ling quietly wiped the tears from her eyes and asked calmly:
"What did you hear?"
"Last night, Captain Ge Xiong was assigned an urgent mission by the Attendant Department. I heard that he was taken away without even having a meal at home!"
Ye Ling sensed something unusual in the housekeeper's words. If she remembered correctly, this Ge Xiong was promoted by Wang Xuecheng and was Wang Xuecheng's trusted general. Thinking of this, Ye Ling couldn't help but ask:
"Do you know where Ge Xiong was taken?"
Wang Fugui shook his head, then hesitated and said:
"Madam, the rumors are spreading that although the Attendant Department said Ge Xiong was on a secret mission, he has actually been arrested!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Ling immediately had a bad premonition in her heart. Although she didn't know Ge Xiong, she knew Wang Xuecheng very well. She knew very well how much Wang Xuecheng had made in the Coordination Office over the years. Therefore, as his confidant, Ge Xiong naturally could not be clean!
And when Ye Ling thought about how there were only a few people seeing Wang Xuecheng off when he was buried a few days ago, her mood was undoubtedly even more solemn!
After hesitating for a while, Ye Ling waved her hand and Wang Fugui immediately retreated.
Ye Ling pondered for a while, and finally seemed to have made up her mind. She found a small wooden box from a secret compartment in her dressing table.
Looking at the wooden box, Ye Ling fell into deep thought again, remembering some of the words Wang Xuecheng had said to her that year, and immediately found a key to open the wooden box!
There was a small notebook lying quietly in the wooden box. Ye Ling was a little surprised to see this notebook. She originally thought that Wang Xuecheng, a heartless man, would leave his property outside for all these years, such as house deeds and land deeds to herself and her children. She never thought that he would only leave such a small notebook for her...
