Chapter 189: The Mansion of the Duke of Yan
Li Chenan and others drank happily in the smoke of half the city in Juxian Pavilion.
The sixth princess, Ning Shuyu and Huo Shufan, the brother and sister in the private room on the second floor, have already left.
At this moment, Yan Zifu, who was sent back to the Duke of Yan State, was still in a coma and had not yet woken up.
The Duke of Yan, Yan Jinyue, was standing in front of Yan Zifu's bed with a frown on his face. Huang Helou, the old concierge of the Duke's mansion, was standing behind Yan Jinyue with a bow.
"Blurry... This is Sun Tiexian's unique poison. The last time it appeared was... in the fourteenth year of Jingtai, when Zhongli defeated the handsome soldiers in the battle against Huihe!"
Yan Jinyue straightened up and smoothed the long beard on her chin. Her brows still didn't relax, and her face became even more confused:
"More than forty years have passed in the blink of an eye. If Sun Tiexian was still alive, he would have changed from the boy he once was to the octogenarian he is today... about the same age as me... I have not heard anything about Sun Tiexian in these forty years."
News, I thought he was dead a long time ago, but unexpectedly he is still alive!"
"He deserves to be alive!"
"This is my carelessness!"
"Zhongli Ruoshui was born with a cold nature. At that time, the imperial doctor in the palace concluded that Zhongli Ruoshui would not live to be fourteen years old. Calculated, Zhongli Ruoshui is already fifteen years old this year..."
"So, the ten years that Zhongli Ruoshui stayed in Kyoto were the ten years that Sun Tiexian treated her!"
"Looking at the entire world, only Sun Tiexian has this ability."
Yan Jinyue turned to look at Yellow Crane Tower: "Did you see with your own eyes that Li Chenan poisoned Zihu?"
Huang Helou quickly bowed and said, "Go back to the master, An Zizai was there at that time. The young master wanted to go upstairs to find trouble with Li Chenan. The old slave thought that with the young master's skills, as long as he stopped An Zizai, nothing would happen.
.”
"Damn it, old slave. I stopped An Zizai on the first floor of Juxian Pavilion, but I never expected that the young master would be poisoned by this confusion!"
"The old slave failed to go upstairs, so... I dare not say that this is what Li Chenan did... I heard that Zhongli Ruoyu is also upstairs. Zhongli Ruoyu is now at the lower level of the third realm, and Sun Tiexian and
The relationship between Fan Taohua and Fan Taohua is quite complicated, so I thought it was more likely that Zhongli Ruoyu had taken action against the young master."
After all, Li Chenan is a scholar and a small businessman, but it has not been heard that he is also a warrior, so Yan Jinyue did not deny it after hearing what Huang Helou said.
"Who came to the house to tell Zifu about this?"
"Go back to me, sir, what I came here is my cousin's name card."
Yan Jinyue was startled and frowned again: "Shuyu?"
"Exactly! The visitor told the young master that Li Chenan hosted a banquet for three young masters from Duke Cheng and Duke Qi's residence in Juxian Pavilion. I'm afraid that Li Chenan didn't take the young master seriously... So, the young master was furious.
, said that he was going to Juxian Pavilion to kill Li Chenan... The old slave couldn't stop him, thinking that he was just a poor boy from Guangling. If the young master really killed him, he would not come to Dingguohou Mansion for the overall situation at hand.
Stand up for that kid."
"Besides, this is my cousin's idea."
"So, the old slave went with the young master. The young master went upstairs, and while he was drinking tea, the young master was poisoned and was thrown down from the third floor. This is how the whole thing happened."
Yan Jinyue looked out the window, her eyes a little solemn, and her face a little gloomy.
It's not that Yan Zifu was thrown from the third floor of Juxian Pavilion, but... why did the granddaughter do this?
The sixth princess Ning Shuyu is almost invisible in the palace.
Due to a serious illness in her childhood, she became disabled in her legs and feet.
She couldn't bear this brutal blow, so she jumped off the roof of the princess mansion and landed on her face. She didn't die, but left a scar as big as a palm on her face.
From then on, her personality changed drastically, and she seemed to regard everyone as her enemy. Even when her grandfather visited the palace, she rarely greeted him with a smile.
Her daughter, Concubine Li, obeyed her in everything, but she was worried that she would make an unwise move again, and she even followed her in choosing the prince-in-law.
She chose Huo Shufan, the son of Zhan Shihuo Baiyang, the young master of Zhan Shifu!
Speaking of which, Yan Jinyue didn't like the consort because he didn't like the scheming Huo Baiyang very much.
But when the daughter came back, she said that since she liked it, she would follow her. Although the Huo family was a merchant family in Guangling City and their family background was not prominent, they had a great advantage.
That is, it is easier for Ning Shuyu to control such a consort!
So Yan Jinyue had no choice but to agree.
So tonight, Shuyu asked Zihu to go out and kill Li Chenan. Could it be that she wanted to vent her anger on Huo Shufan?
Huo Shufan is said to be the first of the three great talents in Guangling, but Li Chenan is suddenly the most talented person in Ning Kingdom!
"I'll send someone to ask Huo Xi to come to my house tomorrow. I want to ask Li Chenan, Huo Shufan or the Huo family if they are having some festivals!"
"good!"
"In addition, send people to clean up the Meiyuan. Shuyu liked that place very much when she was a child, so she gave it to Shuyu as a princess residence outside the palace... After we get married, we will live in the Meiyuan. I will go and see it.
She’s also more convenient.”
"Old slave, I obey!"
"You go down first. My wife will come back from the palace tomorrow...I will talk to her about this matter."
Yellow Crane Tower bowed and retreated, and Yan Jinyue stood in front of Yan Zifu's bed again.
He stood for a long time.
Until Yan Zifu wakes up.
"Early tomorrow morning, you will set off for Wuya and join your second uncle's Red Flame Army... as a soldier!"
Yan Zifu got up immediately: "I won't go!"
"You must go!"
"...Are you afraid of Dingguohou Mansion?"
"It's not that grandpa is afraid of anyone, it's that your father is missing, and you will be the future heir to the Duke of Yan!"
"You are sixteen, how can you convince the public if you don't have the prestige of military merit?"
"Go, Grandpa will not harm you. The Red Flame Army is the Red Flame Army of our Yan Mansion! You must control the Red Flame Army before you can control the Duke of Yan! You must also know that the Ning Kingdom can deal with the Shenwu Army...
Only our Red Flame Army!"
Yan Zifu pondered for a long time, then nodded slowly, but stubbornly said: "Kill Li Chenan's grandson and go!"
"No, what I wasted for a little Li Chenan is your most precious time!"
"He is like an ant. As the future heir to the Duke of Yan, you and him are not from the same world at all!"
"Remember, don't set your sights on ants, as that will make you just like ants. Instead, soar in the sky like an eagle, and as far as you can see... are the vast rivers and mountains in this world!"
…
…
Huaxi Villa.
A pavilion, a lamp, a pot of tea, three people... Amu sat on the fence of the pavilion, looking at the hazy lotus pond under the bright moonlight.
Li Chenan and Zhongli Ruoshui were sitting at the stone table. Zhongli Ruoshui looked at Li Chenan with some worry and said: "When I left the Juxian Pavilion, I asked shopkeeper Tong. The most suspicious one is the sixth princess Ning Shuyu!"
"She came with brother and sister Huo Shufan, so she was a step later than when we went upstairs!"
Li Chenan was slightly startled, "So, that Ning Shuyu invited her cousin Yan Zifu to come and cause trouble for me?"
Zhongli Ruoshui nodded, "Maybe she is standing up for Huo Shufan. You have to be more careful in the future. After all, the sixth princess has a very withdrawn personality and will do things by any means."
"And that Yan Zifu...isn't a generous person either!"
Li Chenan nodded. He was about to speak, but unexpectedly Amu turned around and said: "My junior brother has arrived in Kyoto in the past two days. I can't be by your side to protect you these days, but he can!"
"Your junior brother?"
"Well, Wang Zhenghaoxuan... Yan Zifu is no match for him. With him by your side, you can rest assured!"
Wang Zhenghaoxuan, the genius of Mushan sword!
If you can take this kid with you, you can really rest assured.
It's just that such talented young people are usually very proud.
"...will he listen to you?"
"meeting!"
"Why?"
"Because, he is my brother!"
