Chapter 237: Torturing the Third Prince (18)

Does this mean that the emperor will only let their family go when they are no longer powerful?

Once this idea appeared in my mind, it grew wildly like weeds.

However, Jiang Yan knew that he was powerless to change the fate of his entire family and his brother. The only thing he could do was to hide his own edge and make himself look less dazzling.

So he decided to keep a low profile from then on and try not to let others discover his talents and wisdom.

Although his heart was filled with confusion and fear, and he didn't know whether doing this could save his family from danger, at this moment, he had no choice.

Bean-sized raindrops fell to the ground with thunder, splashing water.

The streets became wet in an instant, and pedestrians quickened their pace to find shelter from the rain.

The servant boy, holding an umbrella, struggled to make his way through the dense rain, clutching a book box tightly in his hand as he came over to take a look.

He had intended to wait until the young master had finished asking his teacher questions before holding an umbrella for him and returning to the mansion together. However, when he arrived, he was shocked to find that the young master was walking in the rain, his whole body soaked.

The servant's heart tightened, and he took big steps and ran hurriedly towards the young master.

Without thinking too much, he picked up the young master in his arms. The young master seemed to be still in a trance. The moment he was picked up, he subconsciously used both hands to tightly protect the book box he was carrying, as if it contained extremely precious treasures, and he was afraid that the books inside would be soaked by the rain.

Because of being in the rain for a long time and excessive worry, Jiang Yan developed a high fever that night.

This sudden change plunged the entire Jiang Mansion into a panic. The servants anxiously shuttled between the rooms, bringing water, delivering medicine, and changing bedding. Everyone's face was filled with worry and concern.

The disease came on extremely fiercely and lasted for three days and three nights.

During this period, Jiang Yan was sometimes unconscious and sometimes talking nonsense, which made his family members who were waiting by his bedside extremely anxious.

Finally, in the early morning of the third day, Jiang Yan slowly opened his eyes and gradually regained consciousness.

However, after experiencing this serious illness, Jiang Yan seemed like a different person.

He was no longer as diligent, studious, well-behaved and sensible as before, but began to deliberately indulge himself and force himself to learn bad things.

He frequently skipped classes, and even when he did attend, he disrupted the classroom order by either talking back to the teacher or fighting with his classmates.

The once talented and brilliant young man disappeared, replaced by a dandy boy who was seen by everyone as uneducated and idle.

General Jiang stood there as if struck by lightning, his mouth slightly open, unable to utter a word.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment. He was completely stunned and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

After an unknown amount of time, his originally resolute gaze gradually softened, his eyes became moist without him noticing, and the red corners of his eyes revealed a trace of sadness and emotion that was difficult to conceal.

You know, this iron general who has fought on the battlefield and experienced decades of wind and rain has always been a tough guy with iron bones and who sheds blood but not tears.

So many years have passed since he cried when he was born, and except for occasionally showing his true feelings in front of his beloved wife, he has never shed a tear in front of others.

However, at this moment, just because of his son's affairs, the battle-hardened general's eyes were red.
