"Huh!" In the early morning, Yan Yundeng suddenly sat up from his bed, breathing heavily.
He had just dreamed that because he disobeyed his great-grandfather, he angered the emperor many times and his family was overthrown. After his death, he came to the underworld and was scolded by his grandfather and father. He also experienced the torture of the eighteenth level of hell.
That feeling is just like real.
And everything that happened not long ago also corresponded to the dream.
The palace's response to the memorial has already been circulated.
Not allowed.
The Minister of Civil Affairs was also imprisoned for corruption not long after.
Even his position as right governor was deprived of him and he was demoted to the rank of second grade governor.
Isn't this in contrast to dreams?
Is this really a dream? Cold sweat continued to seep out on Yan Yundeng's back, and at this time, he was still a little frightened.
Or is it true that my father said that my great-grandfather knew magic? Is he warning me?
After walking out of the room, he took a few big breaths of air and managed to calm down.
"Yun Deng, are you awake?" A voice came from the side, and an old man walked over.
Seeing the old man, Yan Yundeng showed a smile on his face and greeted him familiarly:
"uncle!"
Although he called him uncle, there was no respect in his words.
After all, the other party had been playing tricks with me many years ago. In addition, the other party was the second wife, and although I was also the bastard, I was the eldest son after all, so I still looked down upon him somewhat.
The person who came was none other than Yan Qiyuan.
When Yan Keng was alive, he restrained his domineering behavior and became quite obedient, which made Yan Keng finally let him go.
And when Yan Yan gradually grew old, he began to relapse into his old ways.
It just so happened that Yan Yundeng had a similar affinity with him, and an old man of half a hundred years and a young man just got together.
In other words, he had half of the credit for Yan Yundeng being so domineering. Out of resentment for his father's beating and jealousy of his brother, he had no intention of leading him astray.
"Why do you look like this?" At this time, he saw Yan Yundeng's appearance clearly and asked curiously.
Yan Yundeng was in a state of palpitations and immediately blurted out what had just happened.
"Uncle, tell me, is it my great-grandfather who really knows some magic?" he asked.
"That old guy?" There was no respect in Yan Qiyuan's words. If Yan Yunden hadn't told him, he wouldn't even know about Yan Ling's existence. This made him even more jealous, and naturally he didn't have a good look towards Yan Ling. :
"Yun Deng, the theory of gods and ghosts is impossible! Don't be afraid of him!"
"This dream of yours is just a coincidence. As the saying goes, what you think about every day is what you dream about at night. You have been thinking about being demoted by the emperor recently. Isn't it normal to have such a dream?"
Yan Qiyuan's enlightenment immediately made Yan Yundeng feel justified. Before, he had a little fear because of this dream, but now it immediately faded away.
"Uncle, didn't you say that the emperor would definitely promote me?"
He frowned, a slightly dissatisfied expression rising on his face.
"Maybe, maybe... the emperor thinks you are still young and wants to train you! Emperors don't all have this habit. When they want to use someone, they must first suppress them." Yan Qiyuan rolled his eyes. , stuttering, but still came up with an explanation.
Yan Yundeng thought about it and thought it made sense, so he forgot about this guy giving him bad ideas.
At this moment, a maid appeared in front of them.
Seeing him, Yan Yundeng couldn't help but frown and said coldly:
"What are you here for?"
This maid is none other than Yan Ling's personal maid.
Although Yan Ling has a "forbidden place" to live in the backyard of Chen Guogong's mansion, he still needs food and other livelihoods after all, and this maid is dedicated to serving him. As an orphan, everything she has comes from the Yan family. Don't worry about leaks or anything.
Yan Ling didn't go out much because he was afraid of being seen. He mainly used this maid to convey some matters.
"Someone wants to see Duke Chen Guo." There was no respect in the maid's words.
As she spoke, she moved out of the way and saw a figure turning out from the corner behind her.
The man was wearing a ferocious mask, and as he took off the mask, Yan Qiyuan's eyes widened!
This, isn't this the father's illegitimate son that was rumored in the mansion?
How come he still looks like this after so many years?
At this time, Yan Yundeng had already bowed and said:
"Meet my great-grandfather."
He, he is the great-grandfather Yan Yunden mentioned?
He was even more surprised in his heart.
However, seeing that Yan Yunden had already saluted, he still followed suit.
Yan Ling, on the other hand, looked Yan Qiyuan up and down with a cold expression.
Yan Ling heard what he just said.
The result of my hard work all night came to nothing because of this guy!
Of course Yan Ling knew about this guy's virtues, and it was logical for him to think that Yan Yundeng became what he was now, probably because of his part of the credit.
Thinking of this, Yan Ling became even more angry.
"Yun Deng, who allowed you to tell others about me?"
He said coldly.
"I thought my uncle was one of my own..."
"Only the past family heads can know about my existence." Yan Linghan said in a cold voice, then turned to look at Yan Qiyuan:
"You have a long life. Your father and brothers are dead, but you still survive until now."
"I've been lucky enough to live for decades. If I continue to survive and be your rice bug, no one will care about you! But you don't know how to die, and you still dare to act recklessly!"
"You are so brave to bewitch Chen Guogong! You are responsible for what happened today!"
"You don't have to stay in the house anymore. The coal mine in your hometown in Ningbo is short of miners. You can go there from now on and contribute to the construction of the family!"
Yan Qiyuan raised his head fiercely, his eyes full of disbelief and resentment!
Going to the Ningbo Coal Mine...this is just like a hairpin!
Let him, a pampered person, go there to mine and hang out with a group of people he looks down upon. How can this be tolerated!
More importantly, all his hard work was ruined!
In fact, he has always been jealous of his brother. He has been favored by family resources and has become a big shot in the spotlight. However, his reputation has been ruined and he can only live in hiding in the mansion.
He believes that this is because he is a bastard and his father does not care about him.
Because of this, he has always had resentment towards them, and this resentment was transferred to Yan Yundeng. He got along with Yan Yundeng, secretly instilling in him "You are the eldest son of Chen Guogong, you are born nobler than others" and "Common people, you can do whatever you want." If you beat and scold, no one will dare to touch you." Similar thoughts may not be without the intention of revenge.
And he originally planned to attach himself to Yan Yundeng, slowly dominate his thinking, and then gain his power, or even evade him.
He was almost fifty-nine years old, so it was easy to deal with this young man.
However, Yan Ling's words denied everything he had, how could he not be angry!
If he is really sent to the coal mine, then everything for him will really be ruined!
His eyes were red and he glared at Yan Ling angrily. He turned and saw the long sword at Yan Yundeng's waist.
