In the years of famine, I was well versed in history and pampered the Northern Army

"Is there really such a magical power in time that one can actually predict the present and the future through stargazing?"

Speaking of this, Lu Yan usually disdains these discussions of ghosts and gods, and the present and the future, but he still really wants to say:

"I wouldn't have believed these things before, but ever since Yunjin was founded and Master Xu became the Imperial Master, everything she calculated has always been 100% accurate."

“It’s actually so magical.”

"Not only is it so miraculous, but Xu Mumu even knew that although my trip to the North might seem dangerous on the surface, I would definitely return victorious and even receive help from noble people. He calculated all of this. She never even worried about me and kept reassuring my mother. If my mother hadn't truly believed him, she would probably have become seriously ill just from worrying about me."

Chu Qingyin was shocked by these words. He hadn't believed them before, but he knew Lu Yan. He was so serious, so naturally, he wouldn't be superstitious. So how strong could someone be who was so sure of Lu Yan's strength? Could this person have even predicted that he would be here today?

As it was getting late, Chu Qing didn't feel like going out for a walk, so she and Lu Yan found a restaurant and sat down there.

Suddenly, a graceful and elegant young man appeared in the restaurant. He looked nearly 40 years old but still had a heroic spirit. Although he didn't say a word, Chu Qingyin noticed him at a glance because of his extraordinary temperament.

However, this person had his back to her, so she couldn't see his true face.

He only vaguely felt that this person was somewhat familiar, but Yun Jing had hardly ever been to the capital, let alone to this city, so who could he possibly know? He was about to dispel this doubt when a man suddenly appeared in front of him and kicked over the table in front of him.

"Who do you think you are? Has your Xu family now openly started recruiting retainers? And you're talking about a lost son? How is that even possible? How could your Xu family have a son as old as you? It's really Sima Zhao's intention that everyone knows."

The table in front of him had been kicked over, but the man was quick-witted and had picked up the wine bottle on the table before it was kicked over, so he didn't kick the bottle over. He continued to drink calmly, as if the person in front of him was not scolding him.

"Did you hear that? How can a coward like you be worthy of Yunjin? You're just a country bumpkin, and now you've come to the capital and transformed yourself into the eldest son of the Shangshu family. Who do you think you are?"

Because the scene was too intense, it seemed like someone was coming to ruin the show, so Chu Qingyin was so scared that she didn't dare to move.

She winked at Lu Yan, wanting to ask what was going on. She hadn't expected the capital to be so chaotic. How could someone dare to stir up trouble here under the emperor's feet?

"Recently, the Xu family found a man who they claim is the Xu family's eldest son. Although no one believes him, he looks incredibly like Old Man Xu. Furthermore, before they found him, Xu Jia had already claimed to have lost his eldest son, and his age, build, and even appearance all matched. He also bears a striking resemblance to Imperial Preceptor Xu. Because of this miraculous discovery, the Emperor granted him an official position, but this naturally angered those within the court."

"I see. But finding relatives is so difficult, is it really possible to find them?"

It is extremely difficult to find a relative in modern times, but it is incredible that you could find them so easily in ancient times.

But no matter what, the Xu family did find their eldest son, and this man was both civil and military, with extraordinary strength. He quickly occupied a position in the court, and in less than three months he had become a new upstart in the court.

It is precisely because of things like this that some people become jealous and come here to mess things up.

"Are you done? You just broke my drink and now you have to compensate me."

The sloppy man in front of him was the second son of another Shangshu family. He was used to being taught well on weekdays, so he was naturally unwilling to accept such a man when he suddenly appeared.

Although everyone in the capital seems to be rich and powerful, there is actually a chain of contempt. For someone like him who appears out of nowhere, it is natural that everyone will occasionally cause trouble for him. This is a very normal thing.

"I'll keep you company with wine, and I'll keep your grandfather's legs! You, a pheasant, think you can become a phoenix by putting on chicken feathers? You're always courting the emperor. This is the imperial city, and the emperor is at his feet. I, Zhou Li, just can't stand a courteous villain like you."

Just as he was about to take action, the man in front of him counterattacked him and made him kneel on the ground.

Because these things were really scary, when Chu Qingyin and Lu Yan were upstairs, Chu Qingyin urged Lu Yan in every possible way not to make any sound.

Seeing Chu Qingyin so worried, he wanted to laugh. After all, he was a prince. No matter how rich they were, they would still take a detour when they saw Lu Yan. However, seeing Chu Qingyin was scared, she did not say anything and continued to watch the situation below.

"You dare to hit me?"

"It was you who hit."

Seeing his knees pressed against the lower back of the man on the ground, making him unable to move, and just one hand holding both of his hands, he felt like he was tied up tightly. Now his other hand was still leisurely drinking, and he looked calm and composed, as if nothing had happened.

"Do you know who my father is? You?"

"So what if I know? Your father can't control you, so I will take care of you on his behalf."

For some reason, although she didn't know the ins and outs of this matter, Chu Qingyin felt that this man was really domineering and very relieved. She even wanted to applaud for this scene.

But after seeing that this man had been chased away, Chu Qingyin had nothing better to do, so she asked Lu Yan to go back with her.

"I didn't expect your capital city to be so prosperous, and there's such a good show to watch. This evening's trip was definitely worthwhile. This is the first time I've seen such a domineering person punishing evil and promoting good here."

Although this man is nearly 40 years old, Lu Yan knows that Chu Qingyin doesn't mean that, but he still feels a little jealous.

"That's true. Most of the Xu family members are very nice."

Although he felt a little jealous, he didn't show it.

When the two were going downstairs, Chu Qingyin glanced at him lightly. Just as she reached the door, she heard someone shouting behind her:

"The two people in front, please stay."
