Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1555

The eldest branch of the Kang family had few descendants. Apart from the legitimate son Kang Chenyou, the only one left was the illegitimate son Kang Chenyan.

However, Kang Chenyan was the most outstanding young man in the entire Chen generation. If he left the family, the eldest branch of the family would be gone.

Kang Zuzhi was thinking of some vague incidents that had happened in the eldest branch of the family. His eldest son Kang Jingliang had taken many concubines, and it was also rumored that some of the concubines were pregnant.

But over the years, the concubines either died or disappeared. In the end, only Yuan was left, and the children of the concubines only saved Kang Chenyan.

Just now he heard his grandson Kang Chenyan saying that Yuan killed his aunt, and that the Kang family had no family affection and no trace of human touch... He suddenly understood.

This grandson didn't really want to leave the family. In fact, he wanted to force Yuan to be expelled from the Kang family on the seven grounds for divorce.

After thinking this through, Kang Zuzhi raised his tired eyes and said, "Yan'er, if you have other ideas, you should tell me directly. Don't say anything about leaving the clan anymore."

Kang Chenyan smiled bitterly, "Of course I have other thoughts, but leaving the clan is no joke, this is my true thought."

"You have achieved what you have today thanks to the support of the Kang family..."

Kang Chenyan interrupted his grandfather coldly, "My achievements today are the result of my personal efforts, and have nothing to do with the Kang family. Grandfather, do you want to say that I was able to join the army because of your promotion? Then you can recall that you clearly asked me to join the Fu Family Army, but before I even reported for duty, my stepmother got me into the Feng Family Army. You knew about it, but you didn't take it seriously. After I joined the Feng Family Army, I was repeatedly harmed and punished. If I hadn't learned a lot of skills to save my life, I'm afraid that grandfather wouldn't have waited until I asked to leave the clan today, and would have seen me long ago."

Kang Zuzhi frowned, as if, as if, as if he remembered that there was such a thing.

But when he learned that Kang Chenyan had joined the Feng Family Army, he did not take it seriously. However, the Feng Family Army in Xiucheng only followed the lead of the former general Hong Yang.

The Feng family army was also eliminated in the "Clearing Plan" this time and now has no number.

Kang Chenyan had long noticed that Feng's army had ulterior motives towards the court, but he did not dare to reveal a word.

He could only make mistakes deliberately, causing the war horses to have diarrhea and mismanaging Feng's army, leaving people with the impression that he was incapable of doing anything important.

Of course, this also left his father and grandfather with the conclusion that "this child is useless."

From then on, he lost the value of bringing honor to the Kang family.

Kang Chenyan went through several military camps before finally joining General Lei. This was the only time he chose a military camp himself.

General Lei hated evil, and his stepmother could no longer get involved. At first, his stepmother sent someone to deliver money to General Lei, but General Lei cursed and drove her out.

Kang Chenyan recounted the past events one by one, "Grandfather, do you still think that my current achievements have anything to do with the Kang family? I am alive because of my own ability. If I die, it is really thanks to the Kang family."

As these words fell, Kang Zuzhi finally understood how his grandson had managed to survive until now with so much difficulty and on so thin ice.

His face turned red.

Kang Chenyan said, "Grandfather allowed me to disobey my stepmother's arrangement and arrange my own marriage this time, probably because I jumped three levels and made outstanding contributions. If I were still the same useless person, would grandfather allow me to do so? You would say, 'Don't make decisions on your own, and listen to your stepmother's arrangements.'"

These words sounded familiar. Kang Zuzhi remembered that a few years ago, when Kang Chenyan had just joined the military camp, he did come to him and make some requests.

Because he was busy with official duties, he became impatient and said perfunctorily, "Don't make decisions on your own and let your stepmother make all the arrangements."

After a few times, Kang Chenyan stopped coming to see him.

Kang Zuzhi suddenly felt guilty, "Yan'er, Grandfather is because... because..."

"Because in your eyes, I have never been important. I am not as good as others, I always make mistakes in the army, and I don't know how to please the general, so it is normal that you don't value me. In this case, please don't value me from beginning to end. I will respect you for being consistent. When I am successful, you will value me again. I can only think that Doctor Kang, who is praised by outsiders, is actually just a hypocritical person."

Kang Zuzhi's heart tightened at the sight of his grandson's words.
