Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

Chen Lang remained calm and said, "My name is very common. I estimate that there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people with this name in Dayan."

"That doesn't mean anything."

Zhu Yifeng had been observing Chen Lang's demeanor. Seeing that his eyes were indeed as calm as water, he put the booklet back and said, "Mr. Chen, what you said makes sense. It's just a name, it doesn't really mean anything."

However, Zhu Yifeng then changed the subject: "However, I have read this booklet and found that many of the wordings and sentences in it are somewhat similar to the advertising law and copyright law formulated by Master Chen."

Chen Lang shrugged and said, "So what? I just started the Advertising Law and Copyright Law. The specific details were all drafted by the government. They have nothing to do with me."

"Besides, these two books of laws are public. Perhaps the Red Lotus's military advisors or counselors were inspired by reading these two books and created this manual."

Zhu Yifeng raised his eyebrows and said, "That's a very reasonable explanation."

Chen Lang said, "Young Master, you're beating around the bush. Aren't you just trying to say that I'm secretly supporting the Red Lotus Cult?"

"How about this, let's just get it straight. You go directly to the government office and report me. Or, even more directly, don't you live in the capital? Take me back to the capital and put me directly in the Dali Temple."

"Then write a memorial to Your Majesty, accusing me, the son of a traitor, of colluding with bandits and plotting rebellion."

Zhu Yifeng said, "Mr. Chen, don't be anxious."

Chen Lang said coldly: "I'm anxious for your uncle."

"I came to the banquet for the sake of Duke Zhu. You've been whining non-stop the whole time. Don't you just hate my mother for taking Zhu Sui'an away? Go vent your anger on your father instead of picking on me."

"I, Chen Lang, am the only remaining descendant of Li Shirong, the greatest rebel leader of the Great Yan Dynasty. If you want to kill me, just announce my identity to the entire Great Yan. You won't have to bother with me then. The memorials implicating me will be more numerous than the fish, shrimp, and crabs in the Fuyang River!"

Zhu Yifeng didn't expect Chen Lang to suddenly become so irritable, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

The Imperial City Division is not the Imperial Prison Division. Most of the prisoners interrogated are nobles. Even when nobles are imprisoned, they will maintain their demeanor. It is rare for someone like Chen Lang to curse directly.

Zhu Yifeng reacted and raised his hand, trembling as he pointed at Chen Lang: "You, you, you...you are so disrespectful."

"I insulted you, you bastard!" Chen Lang spat, then took out the badge of the Imperial Prison Department and slammed it on the table. "Open your dog eyes wide and see clearly for me. I am the Junior Chief of the Imperial Prison Department!"

"Don't say I have no connection with the Red Lotus Sect. Even if I do, I'm working for the imperial court to dismantle the Red Lotus Sect from within."

Zhu Yifeng immediately picked up the badge and read it over and over again. After confirming it was genuine, he said, "Li Junhui actually promoted you to Junior Secretary?"

Chen Lang sneered, "What? You're not convinced? You're not convinced and you're going to report it? Isn't that all you know how to do?"

"Then we'll see, is it you who's more powerful, or is it my Third Uncle who's more lucky?"

Since his identity has been revealed, Chen Lang no longer hides it and directly calls Li Junhui "Third Uncle".

Li Junhui is Li Shirong's sworn brother, but the emperor has allowed him to lead the Imperial Prison for so many years, which shows that the emperor has absolute trust in him. If someone wants to use the relationship between Li Junhui and Li Shirong to attack Li Junhui, the probability of success is less than 10%.

Zhu Yifeng put down the sign, his mind completely confused.

Chen Lang's extremely dirty words and the badge of the Imperial Prison Department completely disrupted Zhu Yifeng's rhythm.

For someone like him, once the rhythm of the conversation is mastered by the opponent, it is not easy to control it.

Seeing Zhu Yifeng's flustered expression, Chen Lang continued to taunt him, "Young Master, no matter how much your Second Uncle has wronged you and your son, you are still able to achieve your current status thanks to your Second Uncle."

"You don't really think the emperor values you, do you?"

"You've been finding fault with the Dingbian Army, trying to prove that Second Uncle is an incompetent commander. But have you ever considered what would happen to this Yan Dynasty's ace army if Second Uncle lost control of it?"

"For the past twenty years, the civil service has never ceased its attacks on Second Uncle. This is because Second Uncle is the only special case in the entire Great Yan. He is the only one who can fully control an army. Other armies only have a general assigned to them when a war breaks out. This arrangement does prevent the army from becoming the generals' private armies, but it also severely weakens the army's combat effectiveness."

"If it weren't for my second uncle and the Dingbian Army, the Battle of Xiazhou would have become another joke worthy of being recorded in history. But the civil officials couldn't stand this. They didn't want their power to be divided up by the military generals, so they desperately tried to cause trouble for the Dingbian Army."

"The emperor also harbored suspicions about the Dingbian Army because his second uncle had led it for far too long. He feared that his son would lose control of it after his death."

"It just so happens that you, a fool, hate your own father to the core because of some family conflicts. That's why the civil service group recommended you, and the emperor also promoted you, just to use you to attack my second uncle."

"Your knife might not even break anyone else's defense, but it will definitely leave a hole in your own father. Everyone is waiting to see you and your son kill each other, but you, an idiot, are so happy that you think you are enforcing justice."

"I bother!"

"What the hell is this?"

After a series of rapid-fire attacks, Chen Lang let out a breath of air, feeling refreshed from head to toe. He then picked up his badge and left without looking back.

Zhu Yifeng sat on the chair for a long time without coming back to his senses.

At the same time, a sentence kept appearing in his mind.

"Did I really do something wrong?"

After Chen Lang left the Duke's Mansion, Pei Ming was describing Chen Lang's performance to Zhu Sui'an in vivid detail in his study.

"My Lord, I never thought this kid would be so powerful when he gets angry."

"The eldest son's thinking is famously quick, but facing Chen Lang's rage, he couldn't utter a single word and was completely bewildered."

Pei Ming couldn't help laughing after he finished speaking.

Zhu Sui'an couldn't help laughing and asked, "Who did this kid learn from?"

"My eldest brother is not like that, and neither is Aying."

Pei Mingdao: "Could it be that Director Li taught him?"

Zhu Sui'an shook his head and said, "Impossible. That damn cripple is always thinking about how to trick others, but he never confronts anyone head-on. Especially with such a hearty scolding, that damn cripple would never do it in his life."

Pei Ming couldn't figure it out, so he put the matter aside and said, "Lord, should we go and appease the eldest young master?"

Zhu Sui'an shook his head: "No need, let him figure it out on his own."

"If he doesn't understand, even if I say a thousand things, it won't help."

"Besides, Yifeng is right about something."

"I do owe them mother and son a lot. Being hated by him is retribution for me."

Having said that, Zhu Sui'an let out a breath and asked, "By the way, when you just repeated Chen Lang's words, there was a word that appeared very frequently. I don't quite understand what it means."

Pei Ming blinked and asked, "What word?"

"Fuck you!" Zhu Sui'an asked seriously, "What do you mean?"
