Yan Jingxiu got up and walked outside, not caring about his drunken father and his depressed mother.

"Brother, where are you going?" Yan Xuejiao's voice came from behind.

"Second aunt and second sister have finally come back, I'll go see them." After walking a few steps, Yan Jingxiu suddenly realized that it was not appropriate to pass midnight, so he said to Yan Xuejiao, "You go with me."

"What are you doing? You're so kind to see them. Those two shameless people ran out of their homes."

Yan Xuejiao regretted death. Why did she slow down in the afternoon? She let Yan Xuehuai's dead hoof run away with her second aunt.

"What did you say? They left? Not in the mansion?" Yan Jingxiu grabbed Yan Xuejiao's wrist and asked sternly.

Yan Xuejiao was startled. Her elder brother was gentle and elegant, and she had never seen her elder brother get angry, and she wouldn't even speak loudly.

What's wrong with my brother today?

Yan Xuejiao's wrist was so painful that she broke free from Yan Jingxiu's clamping and said anxiously and angrily: "No, they are not in the mansion. They are hanging out with wild men outside. Grandma asked the second aunt to commit suicide to protect her face. Second aunt refused. Yan Xuehuai pretended to stab Jingwen to death with a hairpin, lied to her mother and daughter to leave. They might have gone to those lowly places to make a living."

When Yan Xuehuai thought that Yan Xuehuai would become a kiln sister in a brothel, Yan Xuejiao felt comfortable.

Yan Xuehuai is born with a fairy-like face. What else can she do if she is a kiln sister? Besides, there are refugees everywhere in Xinjing today. The two women do not rely on men, eat and drink whatever they eat and drink, and where they live, are they waiting to starve to death and freeze to death?

The more Yan Xuejiao thought about it, the more proud she became. When she looked up, she was facing Yan Jingxiu's eyes. Yan Xuejiao was so scared that she almost cried by the anger that emerged from these eyes.

The big brother's eyes... seem to be killing someone!

"Idiots, all idiots! How can I let them go? How can I do it if they leave, what should I do if they are doing my second uncle's errand?"

Yan Xuejiao was stunned. Uncle Second’s errand? Uncle Second is a juren, so he still needs to do it? Isn’t someone coming to the door with money when he becomes a juren?

Yan Jingxiu didn't even look at Yan Xuejiao, who was frightened by him, and strode towards the opposite side.

Idiot, so stupid!

Although it is a three-entry yard, the Yan family has a large population and does not live in a spacious place.

The second and third bedrooms were all crowded in the west wing. Fortunately, Yan Zhaoshi's other three rooms were left in his hometown and did not bring them there. Yan Jinglong, the third bedroom, was still young, otherwise the two families would be unable to live in the three rooms.

Yan Xuejiao and Yan Xueping live in the back room. If Li Qiniang lives back, Yan Zhaoshi's pregnant wife would either live with Yan Xuejiao and the others, or would have to squeeze in with the maid and the maid.

When Yan Jingxiu came in, Yan Zhaoshi was lying on the bed, holding Tongfang Xiuzhu's belly with one hand, and talking to his son who had not yet been born.

Yan Jingxiu felt a chill in his heart. Do your second uncle know that Li Qiniang and her daughter have been back?

Xiuzhu was shocked. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, the eldest master broke in carelessly.

She quickly reached out to push Yan Zhaoshi, but Yan Zhaoshi was drunk and was still talking drunkenly: "Son, Dad's good son, Dad has a son, and he has a son..."

Yan Jingxiu's face became deeper and deeper. Even if the one who was pregnant with a son in the house was really a son, then so what? He was just a concubine son born by a girl and a maid!

"Ah Chong, let the stove cook sober tea and call a maid over!"

The family was in a mess, and no one of the women's relatives could really preside over the gift. The three masters came back drunk, and there was not even a person to sober up.

Compared with the big families who went north, the Yan family was just a poor family who barely solved the problem of food and clothing.

Thinking about the compliments from those scholars just now in the restaurant, Yan Jingxiu felt funny when he heard the compliments from those scholars and his father and two uncles looked complacent.

"......The eldest master, the second master..."

A timid voice came from my ears, it was the one who stayed in the room.

Yan Jingxiu changed his gentleness in the past and his voice was stern: "Get out! This is the master's house, and you are not allowed to come in in the future!"

Xiuzhu was so scared that she was trembling. Since she was pregnant, the second master has loved her very much. When she went north, she only brought her a room. The second master said that as long as she got the best, she would be able to carry her concubine. In the future, her son would be appointed as an official, and she would also be granted the title of imperial edict for her.

She never knew that concubines could be awarded an imperial decree before, but the second master said that he could, so he would definitely be able to do it. The second master was a scholar, and what the second master said was right.

But what happened to the eldest young master today?

If she is not allowed to enter this room, where will she live?

What should I do with the son in her belly?

"Stop being slow, get out quickly, otherwise I will throw you out!"

Yan Jingxiu reached out and wanted to pull Xiuzhu. Xiuzhu almost screamed. The eldest master had drunk too much, must be yes, otherwise how could the eldest master attack her?

Xiuzhu didn't dare to stay here anymore. The second master was still drunk and could not support her. As for the one in her belly, hasn't it been born yet?

Xiuzhu picked up the quilt from the bed and stumbled and ran out.

It was not until half an hour later that Yan Zhaoshi's alcohol finally passed.

He looked at his eldest nephew standing in his room and was a little confused.

"Jing Xiu, what's going on?"

Yan Jingxiu looked solemn and asked, "Second uncle, second aunt and second sister have been back today, do you know?"

Yan Zhaoshi was stunned: "Are they back? You didn't say they...they..."

Before the Yan family entered the city, they saw Yan Jingxiu who came to pick them up at Shili Pavilion outside the city. When they learned that Li Qiniang and Yan Xuehuai were thrown on the road, Yan Jingxiu was very angry. He immediately spent money to ask someone to find him. This morning, the person who asked him to send back the news, saying that someone had seen the mother and daughter, who were targeted by a group of refugees and died in a dilapidated temple.

"Either that person lied to us, or he recognized the wrong person and mistakenly regarded others as his second aunt and second sister."

Yan Jingxiu said what he heard from Yan Xuejiao, and Yan Zhaoshi's face also changed.

"What should I do? Alas, it's better to die."

Yes, it’s better to die outside!

"Second uncle, no matter what, you have to find the second aunt and the second sister, think about it, if Ye Cifu knew about this, how would he think of you and how would he view the Yan family."

"Tao Zheng insisted on letting King Yu ascend the throne. Now King Yu has become a traitor. The Empress Dowager in the past did not want to touch Tao Zheng, but could not touch him. Now that the Duke of Ding has arrived, the Empress Dowager will no longer have any concerns. After Tao Zheng is over, his disciples and old friends are over. Ye Cifu must take the throne. At this time, there must be no trouble here. Moreover, he is the most shameful person. Think about it, why Ye Cifu looks up to you."

Although Yan Jingxiu lowered his voice, Yan Zhaoshi still felt a lot of pressure.

This kind of pressure does not come from Yan Jingxiu, but Ye Cifu!

Ye Cifu's father favored his concubine and killed his wife. Ye Cifu was the legitimate son, but he was raised by his old servant in the family.

When he was still in the old capital, Yan Jingxiu met Ye Sheng at a poetry meeting and became friends with him.

The reason why Yan Jingxiu went to Xinjing, thousands of miles away to study last year was because Ye Sheng came to Xinjing.

Ye Sheng’s grandfather was the old servant who raised Ye Cifu back then.

Not only did Ye Sheng's family release the family, Ye Cifu also took Ye Sheng as his adopted son and asked him to learn from his fellow senior brother, Ji Huaili, who is now the chief of the Shuren Academy.

Before the Yan family arrived in Xinjing, Ye Sheng introduced Yan Jingxiu to Ye Cifu.

When Ye Cifu asked about the Yan family's family background, Yan Jingxiu mentioned his uncle, the only person in the Yan family who had fame and fame.

Heard that Yan Zhaoshi had only one daughter, but never took a concubine. His first wife, Li, was just a business woman, but Yan Zhaoshi had a deep affection with her. Ye Cifu praised her a few words and told Yan Jingxiu that after he came to Yan's house to Beijing, he would meet this Yan Zhaoshi Yan Juren who values ​​love and friendship.

When her nephew reminded her, Yan Zhaoshi's little bit of alcohol that still existed was gone.

Yesterday he had already met Ye Cifu. When Yan Zhaoshi cried so hard that he could not bear to himself. Ye Cifu was also moved by it.

At that moment, Yan Zhaoshi believed it himself. He felt sorry for his daughter, so he left his beloved wife to take care of her daughter. Who would have thought that the farewell would lead to Yongsheng!

Ye Cifu not only comforted him, but also told him not to give up his studies because of this...

People like Ye Cifu will not say anything in the clear place.

Therefore, after returning from Ye’s Mansion, Yan Zhaoshi and Yan Jingxiu agreed that in order to appease the hearts of the people and cultivate new blood, the court will be honored for eighteen years!

This time, King Yu's rebellion involved countless officials, and there were hundreds of people in the Chief Minister Tao Zheng's line.

The new emperor, new policies and new capitals require a large number of officials, so the matter of Enko is urgent.

The world's literary spirit gathers in Jiangnan, and there are only one or two talented men from Jiangnan who come to Beijing this time.

Compared to the past, it is not difficult to get a gold medal this time.
