Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag
Chapter 482: A Farmer’s Scholar in Troubled Times (39)
Because Liu Xun's injuries were too serious, they did not choose the land route, but the water route. Although the journey was slower, fortunately they could reach Xianshi County directly.
"I." Liu Xun uttered the word with difficulty.
Wang Yue immediately poured him a glass of water.
He felt better after drinking some water. "Where are we?"
"Of course I'm going home. Mother and aunt are waiting for you at home." Chen Xuyan said with a smile.
Liu Xun's eyes were moved. "How are they?"
"Everything is fine at home. My parents have been planting as much as they did in previous years. The brothers Qu Yue and Qu Fei were both sent to study with scholars in the city, but due to the recent unrest, the schools are closed. My uncle is as knowledgeable as I am, and he kept an eye on them while they were studying. The two brothers love to play."
"By the way, my aunt also gave birth to a chubby little nephew. When we left, he was still learning to walk. I don't know if he can walk steadily now." Chen Xuyan told the story, and these scenes seemed to appear in front of the listeners.
Wang Yue was also filled with emotion. Liu Xun's life was so miserable, but fortunately God did not treat him badly.
Liu Xun nodded, "Okay."
He touched his face because he was afraid that the children would be afraid to see his face.
Chen Zhao saw his concerns and said, "They are both very brave and won't be afraid of you. If they don't obey, just beat them up."
On the other side, Chen Shaoqi and Wei Siqi had been having a passionate affair for some time.
Wei Siqi looked at him with admiration. "I always thought Chen Xuyan was bragging, but I didn't expect there was such a good eye in this world! You shot those dozens of pursuers yesterday with such accuracy! I couldn't even kill as many people as you did."
He was only using a crossbow that relied on his own strength, but he didn't expect Chen Shaoqi to have so much strength.
Caught off guard by the compliment, Chen Shaoqi felt a little embarrassed. "This isn't that difficult, it just takes more effort than using a slingshot. If you don't mind, I can teach you later!"
This is what he does best.
"Are you serious?" Wei Siqi looked at him expectantly, the gloom on his face dissipating quickly.
Chen Shaoqi nodded, "Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back!"
......
——Yan Family
"Rong Zhao, you really disappoint me." Yan Guiyuan's frank words made Rong Zhao feel a little panic in his heart.
"Although you are not a member of the Yan family, you are still our son-in-law after all. But you have completely forgotten your identity and mission!"
What he said was a bit harsh.
You know, he always used to say Rong Zhao was half Yan family, so why did he suddenly change his tune this time? It seemed that this incident really made the head of the family angry.
Normally, Rong Zhao would nitpick the Second Young Lady's behavior, but he actually indulged his own maid to this extent? He concealed the fire in the library and repeatedly treated the Second Young Lady disrespectfully.
Even if the head of the family really doesn't care this time, the eldest young master will definitely not let it go easily.
The internal conflict between Rong Zhao and Liu Xun directly harmed the Yan family's interests. Not only were the books from the top floor of the library stolen, but rumors of the Yan family's weakness were now widespread. Liu Xun and his group escaped alive under the Yan family's noses, taking dozens of people with them, and countless spies outside. The people they killed in the river were nothing compared to them.
The young master is now busy recruiting spies, but these people were recruited by Liu Xun, and almost none of them are from the Yan family. The young master's original plan to gradually disintegrate Liu Xun's subordinates was completely interrupted because of Liu Xun's escape.
Now, the fear is that these people will eventually fall into the hands of other people.
The Yan family would have suffered a heavy loss.
With the key hubs out of control, their greatest advantage was lost.
Rong Zhao lowered his head humbly, "It's my fault. I will do my best to recover the loss of the Yan family."
Yan Guiyuan snorted coldly, "I dare not hand anyone over to you again. You should think carefully about how to deal with your relationship with Chao Mu. The Yan family's affairs will be handled by the Yan family."
He has already allowed several young men from the Yan family's side branches to go to the island. Rong Zhao is no longer suitable to stay in his current position.
"Uncle." Rong Zhao was unwilling.
Unexpectedly, when Yan Guiyuan heard the news that his nephews had landed on the island, he was in no mood to listen to his nonsense anymore.
Yan Chaowen, who walked into the inner hall, happened to meet Yan Guiyuan who was about to go out. The two of them exchanged a few brief words and then parted ways.
Yan Chaowen glanced at Rong Zhao calmly and then sat on the chair where Yan Guiyuan had just sat.
"Young Master." Hope rekindled in Rong Zhao's eyes.
"If you really don't like my sister, you should know that without the Yan family, you are just a scholar now. You have no right to look down on her like this. I have already dealt with those two annoying maids. You should think carefully about what to do in the future." Although Yan Chaowen did not take Yan Chaomu's request to divorce Rong Zhao to heart, he really did not want to see his sister being looked down upon like this.
His parents passed away early. Although he was busy taking care of the Yan family's affairs all year round and had no time to spend a long time with Yan Chaomu, she was his only living relative.
If one day he really ascends the throne, he will agree to Yan Chaomu changing her husbands as many times as she wants, even if it means she is abandoned after she has done her job. What's wrong with that?
But not now.
Rong Zhao still had some use, and now that Liu Xun was gone, he was even more indispensable. Although the library had burned down, Rong Zhao's judgment was indeed correct, but the two maids around him were really an eyesore, like a servant bullying his master.
"They are innocent, I will discipline them strictly!" Rong Zhao knew his methods. Even Liu Xun, who had paid so much for the Yan family, almost ended up dying in a dungeon. The ending of Qinshu and Zhihua can be imagined.
After all, they have been following me for a few years. They were born as illegitimate daughters of officials and are considered talented.
"If you feel sorry for them, you can take their bodies with you when you leave the Yan family." Yan Chaowen waved his hand, and the guards around him quickly understood what he meant.
Soon, Rong Zhao was asked to leave.
He quickened his pace and rushed to Jinxiu Garden.
——Jinxiuyuan
Xie Chengshan and his family, who had just arrived on the island and had not yet figured out the situation, watched helplessly as a group of people rushed in, kicked the door open without any courtesy, and left with no expression after seeing the people's faces.
Wang Shuning screamed in the chaos and fell into Xie Chengshan's arms.
"What's going on? Is there chaos in Yan? Where is Rong Zhaoren?"
The white hair on Xie Chengshan's temples made him look much older. "Let's go out and take a look."
Now that we are here, there is no way we can leave Yan for the time being, especially this isolated island.
Qinshu and Zhihua, who were playing and dressing up each other in the room, were suddenly dragged out of the room by the guards. Zhihua had a bad feeling in her heart, thinking that this might be the intention of the young master or the head of the family.
"What are you going to do? We are the young master's maids. Be careful or he will punish you severely when he gets back!" Qinshu's mouth was still as sharp as ever.
Zhihua quickly stopped him, "Shut up!"
Qin Shu was frightened by her sudden outburst, "What are you afraid of? The Second Miss has to act according to the Master's mood."
If she hadn't been so persistent and persistent with the young master, how could the Yan family have forced him to marry such a shrew? Yan Chaomu was clearly a daughter of an official family and well-read, but she loved to lower herself to associate with those low-class people.
This made the young master feel disgusted with her.
Hearing her outrageous words, the guard grabbed her hair and slapped her twice without mercy. Just two slaps completely broke her cheek. "You lowly slave! How dare you slander the Second Young Miss of our Yan Family?!"
"I don't think we need to wait until we kill him in the dungeon. Let's kill him right there."
The guards leading the way showed a strange smile on their faces. "Kill her on the spot? That would be so boring. I want to take her back to the dungeon and have some fun."
Zhihua shuddered when she heard this. Even the slow-witted Qinshu realized something was wrong and began to struggle desperately.
But her limited strength was just a tickle to those who had been following Yan Chaowen for many years.
Rong Zhao finally rushed back after running all the way, "Let them go! I will explain everything to the young master!"
But these people didn't take his words seriously at all.
They continued to drag the two forward.
Rong Zhao looked helplessly at the guards at the door, "Why don't you stop them?"
The guards lowered their heads. "They are the Young Master's personal guards. They only obey the Young Master's orders. No one can disobey the Young Master."
They are servants of the Yan family, not Rong Zhao's servants. Why should they listen to him?
Seeing that these people were unmoved, Rong Zhao took two more steps forward, and finally had no choice but to hold on to the wall.
Xie Chengshan and Wang Shuning in the courtyard also figured out something.
......
— One month later
Chenjiacun.
"Uncle, shall we push you out to bask in the sun?" Chen Qufei, this naughty boy, was rarely so attentive to anyone other than Chen Xuyan.
Liu Xun opened his folding fan, smiled, and nodded, "You don't want to memorize the book anymore?"
Chen Qufei nodded hesitantly.
My uncle never complained, so he probably wouldn't tell his parents about this, right? Otherwise, he would get beaten up again.
"Then push me out." The child is not good at reading and doesn't like reading.
Let’s see what other areas we can develop in.
As soon as the door was opened, Wu Yuewan saw Chen Qufei pushing her brother with difficulty and hurried over.
"Let me do it, you go and play." She touched Chen Qufei's head.
Chen Qufei felt liberated when he heard this, but he still glanced at Liu Xun, as if waiting for his approval.
"Go ahead, but don't run too far." Liu Xun could see that he was feeling uncomfortable.
This kid is still worried that he will complain.
"Brother, just let him be!" Wu Yuewan naturally saw through the twists and turns.
"Qu Yue and Lu Zhu are both good children who love to study. They will have no problem finding a good future. But Qu Fei is different. He can't sit still when studying and is also naughty. Naturally, he needs strict discipline."
Liu Xun looked at his little sister who suddenly lost her temper and couldn't help but think of her childhood. "Haha, weren't you the same as her when you were a child?"
"Don't worry, I will make arrangements for them."
Wu Yuewan angrily pushed him into the yard to bask in the sun.
"Brother!" Wang Yue's voice came.
Liu Xun looked back and asked, "How is it going?"
He has handed over all the people in his hands to Wang Yue. Presumably, they have been transferred and handed over almost completely during this period of time. He is afraid that the counterattack of the Yan family will be very serious.
Wang Yue gulped down a pot of water. "These people are all our own people. They originally followed you, so it's naturally easy to persuade them to rebel. Now there are only the last two cities that have not been settled. I believe we will be done soon."
"I'm afraid the dog emperor will join forces with the Yan family to deal with us."
This is what is most worrying.
Liu Xun shook his head. "Not for now. Yan Guiyuan is arrogant, and his two children were also killed by Zhou Yusheng. He probably won't lose face for a while. As for Zhou Yusheng, he will definitely take action against us first. After all, aren't there already two concubines in his harem who are pregnant with princes?"
Wang Yue was naturally convinced by his words. "You and your nephew are saying the same thing. He thinks the same thing. Judging from General Zhong's attitude, he will not give up and will continue to fight. I'm afraid the army will set out after the autumn harvest."
Wang Yue felt really happy to follow Zhong Tianzhu to build an empire. Zhong Tianzhu knew how to use people well and had rewards and punishments. In addition, Li Wentao and others were also with him, so of course he was eager to stay.
The eldest brother's nephew has a very good relationship with Zhong Tianzhu, and this is known to everyone in the world.
The Emperor personally appointed him as a compiler in the Imperial Academy, the top scholar in the imperial examination, and he actually followed a peasant to conquer the country. Doesn't this prove that Zhong Tianzhu is the one who has the support of the people? So naturally, this bastard Emperor would not let Chen Xuyan go easily, and had been secretly sending people to kill Chen Xuyan.
"Just follow my instructions and you will definitely be valued." Liu Xun knew all the situations clearly.
I just don't know what kind of identity my nephew will want in the future.
Whatever he wanted, Liu Xun would give it to him.
Wang Yue sighed, "Reuse? I think that's difficult."
"Now that Duke Yingguo Zheng Yi and former Zheng Huan, the great general of the Zhenguo state, have both defected to Zhong Tianzhu, they will of course be given priority. Small figures like us will have to wait in line."
Despite saying so much, he still felt that their current situation was many times better than when they were in the Yan family.
He is already content.
Liu Xun chuckled, "After all these years, this is the first time I've seen you not believe me."
Wang Yue's expression turned serious. "Are you serious?"
Liu Xun nodded and said, "Of course it's true. As long as you follow Chen Xuyan well, you will always be valued."
Everything else is unimportant.
"Uncle! I'm back!" Chen Qufei came back from the river with a big fish in his hand and a smile on his face.
It was as if something earth-shattering had happened.
Chen Zhao didn't know when he came back. He slowly put down the things in his hands.
