"What is the purpose of the emperor deliberately drawing everyone's attention to the fight for the crown prince?" Cai Wanglin asked. He never interfered with government affairs, but it did not mean that he did not care. Now that his own life and safety are related, there is still something to be clear about.

clear.

Han Ziran said calmly: "His purpose is to keep Ah Zhen and me in the capital, because he knows that we will not ignore Yao'er. Although we will not intervene explicitly in the prince's dispute, we will definitely intervene in it.

Watching all this secretly." In fact, they did live in hiding in the capital for a year.

Han Ziran held his wife's hand. His wife's senses were always sharp, but she seemed a little slow in this matter. The most important thing was that she didn't want to believe that the emperor would really treat them like that. He also didn't want to believe that the child, since they were

His disciples have always been regarded as their children.

"Are we thinking too badly of the emperor?" Xi Ya has watched the emperor grow up and is not willing to believe that the emperor has such scheming intentions. Moreover, the emperor's plan has been laid out ten years ago. Ten years ago

ah.

"I also think the emperor is not that kind of person." Xiang'er couldn't believe that such a wise emperor who was praised by the people could have such a dark heart: "We have helped them so much, no one with emotions would do such a thing.

thing."

"Tell me," Xiao Zhen looked at everyone: "Is there a possibility that the emperor does not have the intention to kill us, but he does not allow us to step out of his control."

Zhao Jie and Wu Yin looked at each other.

Han Ziran pondered.

Just as everyone was appraising the current situation, a servant came in excitedly and said: "The eldest son is back."

Han Hua is back? Everyone stood up, and a doubt flashed through their minds. Isn't it a day before they get home? Why did they arrive home so suddenly?

Xiao Zhen hurried out. Everyone's expressions of solemnity disappeared and they all welcomed him out happily.

After not seeing their nephew for many years, Han Ziran and Xiao Zhen almost didn't recognize the man who was covered with stubble and dressed in a travel-stained look. Han Hua's body shape was very similar to that of the eldest brother of the Han family. The older he got, the more similar he became. He was tall and handsome, with clear outlines.

, but there is no gentleness between the eyebrows and eyes of the eldest brother of the Han family, and there is no trace of tact after years of officialdom. On the contrary, he has become more resolute.

After saluting, Han Hua didn't have time to exchange greetings, so he said to the servant beside him: "Go and call the two young masters out."

"yes."

Han Ziran took the tea from Xi Ya and handed it to Han Hua: "Take your time, drink the tea first." He then asked his servants to make some easy-to-digest cakes.

Seeing this, Xiang'er wanted to step forward and tell Hua'er not to talk about it in such a hurry, and it didn't matter if she slept and dealt with it tomorrow, but was stopped by Zhao Jie's eyes. As a child who had been brought up since childhood, Zhao Jie knew Han Hua too well, so he probably had to hold it back all the way.

Full of anger.

Han Ziran and Xiao Zhen also knew their nephew's character, so they didn't say anything.

After a while, Han Peng was brought over. When he saw his father, Han Peng looked happy and saluted as he stepped forward.

"Sir," the valet said to Han Hua, "the second young master is not at home."

Xiao Zhen looked at the servant who was waiting in the room, and the servant hurriedly said: "No one came to report that the second young master was out."

"If he wasn't in the yard, where would he be?" Xiya asked curiously.

Han Peng thought for a while and murmured: "He won't get out through a dog hole, right?"

The eyes of everyone in the room fell on Han Peng.

The Han family does not have dogs, but there is a damaged hole over there in the woodshed, not too big or too small, just big enough for a thin person to get in and out.

At this moment, everyone is standing in front of this dog hole.

Han Hua laughed angrily at his younger son, but his green-faced smile made it clear that the young man who had gotten into the dog hole was afraid of disaster.

"Sir," a guard brought back by Han Hua hurried over: "Clan leader Shi is also here."

The leader of the Shi clan was Shi Yan. He met Han Hua on the way here and went on the road with him.

When Xiao Zhen and the others returned to the hall, they saw Shi Yan happily eating the cakes that his servants had just brought to Hanhua.

"Brother Ziran, Sister Azhen." Seeing an acquaintance, Shi Yan was as happy as a child: "Hey, brother the miracle doctor."

"I've prepared a place for you to live in, it's right next door to my house." Cai Wanglin wished that Yan would be with him every day, so that he could still have a chance to trick him out of some of Shi's secret techniques.

Come.

Shi Yan looked happy: "I also like living with the miracle doctor brother." He looked at Hanhua again and said: "Brother Hanhua, didn't I say that you will definitely not be able to solve this problem today. How about it now?

Do you believe I’ve figured it out?”

Han Peng looked at the person named Shi Yan strangely and found it very strange. This person who seemed to be several years younger than his father actually called his uncle, uncle, and uncle, the miracle doctor, and his sister.

This father seems to be a brother to him. Isn't this generation a bit "chaotic"?

"It's already very late, Hua'er, you should rest early." Han Ziran patted his nephew on the shoulder,

"Yeah, we can't rush this matter. You have a good sleep first and we'll talk about it tomorrow." Xiao Zhen also said.

Han Hua was indeed very tired. He had been traveling for so many days without having a good rest, and had exhausted two horses. He nodded and said, "Dad should rest now. I will go to apologize to his old man tomorrow."

"Your father knows that this matter has nothing to do with you, and he won't blame you."

How come it has nothing to do with him? Han Hua looked guilty. If he hadn't been neglectful of his family, such a thing would not have happened. Looking back on his shock and disbelief when he first learned about this incident, he really couldn't believe that he had always treated him like his own son.

Father-in-law and mother-in-law would do such a thing. If they want to adopt a child, they can make it clear that such behavior is humiliating them.

There are also his wife's words and deeds. He always thought that his wife was willful, but she was kind-hearted. She was just spoiled, but she really loved him. Who would have thought that deep down in their hearts, they had always despised the Han family.

and disdainful.

Seeing Han Hua look haggard and worried when he left, everyone felt uncomfortable.

"Don't worry." Shi Yan continued to eat the hot pastries on the plate and said with a smile, "I once made a fortune for him. There will be no ups and downs in his life, and he will live smoothly until he is old."

"I didn't expect that what happened to the Han family now would not be considered an ups and downs event in your hexagram." Xiao Zhen glanced at him: "This kind of thing is a big deal even among the nobles, let alone ordinary people."

Shi Yan: ""

"What kind of things are ups and downs in your hexagram?" Han Ziran asked curiously.

Shi Yan thought for a while and spread his hands: "I don't know, the hexagram shows that you can live peacefully until old age."

"Really, are you sure?" Wu Yin and Zhao Jie said in unison, looking at him excitedly.

Shi Yan blinked, wondering why the two people looked so excited.

"Of course I'm sure. When has my prediction ever failed?"

Han Ziran and Xiao Zhen looked at each other. If in the past, Shi Yan had spiritual power, the hexagram would indeed be effective. But now that the spiritual power is gone, it is hard to say how accurate this hexagram is.

Later in the night, it started to rain.

The autumn rain is as thin as a needle or a thread.

The next day, the weather became a bit cold and humid.

In the past, Xiya and Xiang'er were in charge of the kitchen, but now that Ning Yue comes back, she becomes her.

When Han Qiu entered the kitchen, he saw his wife directing the servants to prepare the family's breakfast. From picking fresh vegetable leaves to selecting seasonings and arranging the plates, she was responsible for all the meticulous work. Over the past ten years,

It has become very convenient.

Although my wife is a concubine of the Ning family, she has been pampered since she was a child. When she first got married, she was very incompetent in housework. However, she is studious and can stand on her own within a few years, even without these servants.

, let him do a good job in feeding the whole family.

Ning couldn't help but look up and saw her husband standing at the door looking at her. She smiled gently: "Why did you get up so early? There is nothing to do at home. You can sleep a little longer."

"Although I want to sleep a little longer, I'm used to it at this time. It smells so good." Han Qiu smelled the food: "It seems that the meal this morning must be very rich. By the way, the servant said that the eldest brother came back last night.

Have you bought my brother’s favorite goose paw?”

"Of course I bought it." Ning said with a gentle smile: "I made my eldest brother's favorite fragrant goose feet, your favorite braised eggs, and my mother's favorite lion head, and fried them for Uncle Wu and Uncle Zhao.

peanut."

"Thank you for your hard work, madam, I'm here to help you." Han Qiu rolled up his sleeves and started to work.

"No, if my family sees me, where do you want me to put my face?"

"If you see it, you will see it. There is no shame in it."

"No, if word gets out, our family will be gossiped about."

"You will be told what you say, I don't care."

"I care."

One of the husband and wife here wanted to do it, but the other was not allowed to do it. Outside the kitchen, Han Ziran and Xiao Zhen watched the interaction between their son and their daughter-in-law with interest. They watched it for a long time.
