Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Chapter 3 Goodbye Grandpa

It is not known whether Zhao Mingyuan compromised with his daughter, but after Zhao Lirong came out of her father's room, she hugged her son Feng Sizhe and cried bitterly. Then she told her son to stay in the motherland for a while, and then she flew back to England early the next morning.

Feng Sizhe's impression of his motherland was not bad. At least in the courtyard, he felt that everyone loved him. Even his grandfather, who was always dignified and intimidating, always kept a smile when he saw him, unlike his uncle, second uncle, second aunt and third aunt who always had a stern face. But Feng Sizhe was just a little curious about this place. After getting used to the life in the UK, he didn't want to live here for a long time. His mother only asked him to stay in Kyoto for a year. After a year, he could go wherever he wanted. For this reason, Feng Sizhe stayed in this courtyard temporarily.

But he never expected that his grandfather had secretly enrolled in the Youth Class and intended to help him develop in the officialdom. This was of course something Feng Sizhe, who was used to living in the free world, did not want. If it were not for the agreement with his mother, Feng Sizhe would have secretly returned to England.

These are some of Yu Tian's memories of his past life. He still remembers that at this time in his past life, he hated his grandfather very much because his grandfather asked him to go into politics, which was not his hobby. Later, despite the pressure from his family, Feng Sizhe did not return to England after graduating from the Youth Class a few months later, but he was determined not to go into politics. Later, his grandfather compromised and said that as long as he was willing to stay in Kyoto, he could do anything. In this way, Feng Sizhe chose a career that he liked, that is, to be a social commentator under the leadership of the national government. He used the education ideas and perspectives he received in Western countries to criticize various inequalities and events in the Republic many times.

But now that Feng Sizhe has been reborn, he doesn't think so. After decades of life, he has seen the Zhao family's rise and fall, and even experienced life and death. It can be said that he has seen through a lot, and family affection may be more important to him. Now he wants to use his new insights to visit his grandfather and make him happy, which can be regarded as a way to thank God for letting him be reborn.

Feng Sizhe trotted all the way to the training ground on the east side of the courtyard.

As a senior general in the army, Zhao Mingyuan, especially as a correspondent for the recently resigned Chairman of the Central Military Commission, has a very high status in the military. The courtyard where he lives is naturally very large. In addition to a fairly large orthodox courtyard, there are also sports fields on both sides for people to exercise. Now Lieutenant General Zhao Mingyuan is exercising in the east courtyard playground.

Feng Sizhe suddenly appeared here, and everyone who was training here was stunned. In the quadrangle, the boundaries between the east and west playgrounds were still separate.

Generally speaking, the East Courtyard playground is the training place for Zhao Mingyuan and some courtyard guards, while the West Courtyard is the place where the second generation and younger generations of the Zhao family exercise. Feng Sizhe's sudden appearance on this playground this morning inevitably surprised everyone.

"Zhe'er, why are you here?" Zhao Mingyuan was the first to be surprised when he saw Feng Zhe appear here. He really loved his grandson. Not to mention how much Zhao Mingyuan, who had a son-loving mentality, loved his only male grandson, just the fact that Feng Sizhe had a dual master's degree and was a young talent who had studied abroad made him so proud. It was precisely because of this that when he asked someone to get Feng Zhe into the Youth Class, the cradle of national politics, he did not waste any effort. He even heard that some central leaders said that the country was in the process of reform and opening up, and it also needed some elites who had returned from abroad to join. Only when the opinions of hundreds of schools of thought could the country be promoted. Moreover, General He Chuanjiong, the former vice chairman of the Military Commission and honorary president of the National Defense University, took a fancy to Feng Zhe and even wanted to marry his eldest granddaughter to Feng Zhe, which made Zhao Mingyuan very happy. As the president of the National Defense University, He Chuanjiong had students from all walks of life. He was also Zhao Mingyuan's former superior. Now that his former superior had seen his grandson, how could Lieutenant General Zhao Mingyuan not be happy? But the trouble was that Feng Sizhe ignored it and said that if he insisted on arranging a political marriage for him, he would go back to his mother in the UK. This frightened Lieutenant General Zhao Mingyuan and he dared not mention it again.

It can be said that Feng Sizhe is good in everything, whether it is his identity or his background, but he just doesn't like to talk to himself. It is said that Feng Sizhe's performance in the Youth Class is also very mediocre, and he doesn't even talk much. This worries Zhao Mingyuan. He wanted to talk to his grandson several times, but Feng Sizhe hid as soon as he saw him, which made him unable to find a suitable opportunity to speak. And this morning Feng Sizhe took the initiative to come to the East Courtyard playground. What does this mean? Could it be that the grandson has really stayed here long enough and wants to return home? There are still four months before the one-year agreement was agreed upon, but young people are all stupid. If they really have an idea, they will do it as soon as they say it. Thinking that Feng Sizhe might say goodbye to him, Zhao Mingyuan was a little scared for a while, and even didn't want to see his most beloved grandson.

"Grandpa." Seeing Zhao Mingyuan, Feng Sizhe shouted happily from afar.

"Ah." When Zhao Mingyuan saw that Feng Sizhe really came to see him, he couldn't help but sigh that his expectation might have come true. He immediately prepared to use the excuse of not meeting Feng Zhe first, not giving him a chance to speak, and then taking the opportunity to persuade his eldest daughter. If his grandson didn't listen to him, he would have to listen to his mother anyway.

The guards of the East Courtyard were all very happy when they saw Feng Zhe walking towards Lieutenant General Zhao. As the chief's guards, they certainly knew something about the Zhao family. They knew that their chief, Zhao Mingyuan, who had fought in wars and was known as Crazy Zhao, was the one who most wanted to have a good relationship with Feng Sizhe. Now that Feng Sizhe had taken the initiative to find the chief, shouldn't the chief be very happy?

But to the surprise of all the guards and even Feng Sizhe, Zhao Mingyuan actually turned around and walked away. It seemed that he didn't want to pay attention to Feng Sizhe.

"Commander, your grandfather is calling you." Li Zhiyong, Zhao Mingyuan's personal secretary and guard captain, suddenly ran to his side and reminded the commander.

"You?" Seeing that it was Li Zhiyong, Zhao Mingyuan sighed and was about to ask, "Little Li, why are you blocking me?" But Feng Sizhe had already come to his side. "Grandpa, where are you going?"

"Oh, Grandpa, I'm not feeling well. I want to go back and lie down." Seeing that he couldn't hide, Zhao Mingyuan wanted to find a reason to escape first.

"Ah? Let me see." Upon hearing his grandfather say that he was not feeling well, Feng Sizhe immediately helped Zhao Mingyuan up with concern, and then kept looking at the old man.

Feng Sizhe clearly remembered that in the previous parallel world, Zhao Mingyuan was in very good health. He rarely even needed injections. He was still healthy until he was eighty years old. Eventually, because the Zhao family had no successors, it was difficult to form an effective core force for the new generation. In addition, the eldest uncle followed the wrong person and the younger uncle was not very motivated. Eventually, the Zhao family became a victim of factional struggles. Finally, when the old man was 82 years old, he had a stroke and was hospitalized because his children were not doing well. Feng Sizhe heard that the old man was dying, so he drove to the hospital in a hurry. As a result, he had a car accident and was reborn and came to the present.

These were all Feng Sizhe's memories from his previous parallel world. Could it be that everything in this world had changed? Was Grandpa in poor health now? Feng Sizhe had no idea. He could only observe closely, hoping to see something from Grandpa's face.

Maybe it was because he lied in front of his grandson, anyway, Zhao Mingyuan's face was a little red, and this red was very unusual for Feng Sizhe and his secretary Li Zhiyong. "Quick, Uncle Li, let's help my grandpa go to the room to rest."

"Okay," Li Zhiyong agreed quickly, and then he waved his hand. Several other guards immediately ran over and surrounded Zhao Mingyuan from front to back, as if he couldn't be blown away by the wind at this time.
