To understand the way of swordsmanship, talent is important, but it also requires opportunity and character.
Without opportunity, even if the talent is in place and the mind is calm, one cannot comprehend this great move.
Early in the morning.
In Chenjia Square.
Dozens of the new generation disciples of the Chen family, wearing white sword uniforms embroidered with Chen family totems and holding wooden swords, conducted a new day of swordsmanship training under the leadership of Chen Mu, the head of the Chen family.
"Thump, thump, thump..."
A white flying pigeon flapped its wings and came to the hall of Chen's home.
The old housekeeper of the Chen family saw the mailbox on the sole of Fei Ge's foot, and hurriedly held Fei Ge and took out the letter from the mailbox.
The old housekeeper knew that something big would usually happen when the carrier pigeon arrived, so he hurried to the playground with an old-fashioned pace.
"Master! Just now Fei Ge sent a letter... It seems like something big happened!" The old housekeeper handed the bundled letter to Chen Mu.
Chen Mu frowned, put down the wooden sword in his hand, tore open the mud seal on it, and checked the contents of the letter.
"Father...it has been ten years since we parted ways in the military camp! We have never seen you and my daughter again!"
"My daughter is unfilial and feels guilty and blames herself! She knew she had no words to face her father and ran away from home for decades!"
"What happened on that day is unforgettable and will never be forgotten!"
"The father whipped him angrily and punished his daughter. Her body was completely bruised and her heart was torn apart!"
"My daughter never blamed her father for punishing him, but it was actually because of her poor care that Third Young Master Yan suffered from a high fever and became a fool!"
"But now... my daughter can finally plead her grievance! Third Young Master Yan is not stupid at all! Not only is he not stupid, he is actually smart and wise!"
"What my daughter confided in did not mean to blame her, she only expressed her grievances!"
"For so many years, my daughter has been in private contact with City Lord Guo Heng. Without his company, my daughter might have been reduced to a pile of withered bones!"
"After learning that Young Master Yan was fine, my daughter was overjoyed and relieved, because she has lived up to her father and her trust in the general who protects the country!"
"Now that the palace has suffered such a disaster, my daughter wants to advance and retreat together with Guo Heng, and she will protect Uncle Beidu's pure land to the death!"
"My father and Uncle Beidu are sworn brothers. The eldest son, the second son and the third son of Yan regard my father as their godfather!"
"My daughter doesn't know your position when this disaster happens in the palace, but it is necessary for my daughter to clarify the foolish things about Third Young Master Yan!"
"I would like to inform my father about this!——Daughter Chen Bining!"
The eloquent words made Chen Mu's chest roll like a wave.
Shock flashed in his eyes.
Young Master Yan is pretending to be stupid?
How can this be? ?
This was like a bomb that landed in Chen Mu's chest and exploded violently.
Even if he were beaten to death, he wouldn't believe it. Yan Yun had been pretending to be stupid.
If you tell others this, they might take it seriously, but if you tell it to Chen Mu, Chen Mu will never believe it.
Ten years ago, while traveling with his daughter, he happened to pass by the border and spent some time in the military camp in Yanbeidu.
He and Yan Beidu grew up together and became sworn friends to Jinlan and became brothers with different surnames.
When we passed the military camp, there was no fighting at the border yet.
On the third day after arriving at the barracks, the Chu Empire sent troops to harass the border.
In desperation, Yan Bei entrusted his third son Yan Yun to Chen Mu.
Chen Mu was also afraid that something would happen to Yan Beidu on the border, so he handed Yan Yun over to his young girl, Chen Bining.
It just so happened that Yan Yun had a recurring high fever during those days, which would go down again and then go down again.
Chen Bining has no experience in raising children.
But he was afraid that he would not take good care of Yan Yun, so he stayed close to her and took care of her carefully.
I can't even sleep well at night.
Yan Yun's high fever suddenly subsided that day and did not relapse until night.
Chen Bining thought her high fever was completely gone, so she slept well all night.
Who knows.
The next morning, Yan Yun's brain was burned out.
This made Chen Bining the sinner of the entire military camp.
At that time, Chen Bining learned that Yan Yun's brain was burned out and he collapsed!
When Chen Mu learned about it, he was very angry. He took a horse whip and whipped Chen Bining severely in the tent.
Chen Bining was so beaten that his body was covered in blood and flesh, with ravines and ravines all over his body, and it was too miserable to look at.
If Yan Beidu hadn't known about it and rushed over in a hurry, Chen Bining's life would have been in danger!
Chen Mu was also very painful inside.
Every spanking seemed to hit him in the heart, but in order to give an explanation to his sworn brother, he had to do this.
Originally, Chen Bining was going to marry Yan Feng and become the new generation of the Yan family's first lady.
However, when this happened, Chen Mu expelled Chen Bining from the Chen family in anger.
Afterwards, Chen Bining was in great pain and felt extremely guilty.
At this moment, Guo Heng appeared.
It was Guo Heng's careful care that allowed Chen Bining to recover from his injuries.
Since then, Chen Bining has become dependent on Guo Heng.
It happened that Guo Heng's wife had just passed away at that time, and Guo Heng urgently needed to make up for the trauma in his heart, so the two secretly fell in love.
Guo Xiaoqi was 14 years old that year and Guo Yiren was 13 years old.
When Yan Yun's brain burned out, Chen Mu felt guilty, but he took care of Yan Yun for almost a month.
He is all too familiar with Yan Yun's stupidity!
nowadays.
His daughter, whom he had lost contact with for ten years, actually told him that Yan Yun had been pretending to be stupid. How could he believe this? ?
He understands Yan Yun's situation better than anyone else.
Even better than Guo Heng, Wei Xiong and others.
Silly and naive, I need someone to take care of me for eating, sleeping and dressing.
This is why Chen Bining learned from Guo Heng that Yan Yun was pretending to be stupid and was the first to contact his father.
Chen Bining was indeed relieved.
She really doesn't have to live in guilt and self-blame anymore!
But on the other hand, it would be a lie if Chen Bining didn't hate Yan Yun. It was precisely because of Yan Yun's pretending to be stupid that her heart suffered and her body suffered.
It even caused her to cut off ties with her family.
This was a pain that she would never be able to erase for the rest of her life.
Fortunately, she met Guo Heng.
Under Guo Heng's comfort, her lonely soul was filled.
After reading the letter, Chen Mu returned to the central hall.
He did not train any more family members, but just sat at the top, lost in thought.
The old housekeeper knew that something was going to happen, so he carefully poured him a cup of freshly brewed tea, and then stood aside, waiting for orders.
Chen Mu's head was in a mess.
He took a sip of tea and began to smooth out his thoughts.
First of all... Yan Yun would not believe Yan Yun's pretending to be stupid until he confirmed it.
Secondly... Yan Beidu and he were sworn brothers. Now Yan Beidu, his father and son, were beheaded, and the other children, old and young, were exiled.
Secondly... his third brother Chen Zhi is the swordsmanship master of the current crown prince Yan Yao. In other words, his Chen family is now biased towards Yan Nandu. No matter what happens in Yan Nandu, it is inextricably related to his Chen family!
