In the inner courtyard of Yan Xun's mansion, there is a corner gate connected to the Yongxi Marquis Mansion, and the errands are all mothers-in-law. If Yongxihou's people come over, the mothers-in-law will know that it is the master, and they will let it go easily.

When you arrive at the outer courtyard, it is an iron wall, it is difficult to move an inch, and there are guards everywhere. These guards only recognize Yan Xun, not others, and anyone who wants to come in needs to be familiar with all levels, except for Lu Luo.

Therefore, if you want to enter Yan Xun's Hou Mansion, the only convenient way is to pass through the Yongxi Hou Mansion.

That night, Yan Xun had no appetite, drank a bowl of rice porridge to nourish his stomach, and sat alone in the study, flipping through the map of the southwest of the Great Zhou, trying to find out the reasons for the recent frequent turmoil in the southwest.

The candle flame is orange and jumps in the wind.

Yan Xun fell into deep thought.

"What does King Cheng think?" Yan Xun thought in his heart, he doubted becoming the king.

Suspicion is suspicion, and there is no evidence for a while.

Just as he was thinking, the door of the outer study was gently tapped. Yan Xun came back to his senses, said and came in, the carved wooden door was pushed open, and the guard's boots landed heavy and powerful.

"General, someone is asking to see, it's your cousin." The guard told Yan Xun.

Although Yan Xun didn't have much contact with the lobby brother, he also had a good relationship, so he didn't think much about it, and casually said to the guard: "Please come in." ”

The eldest man of the Yan family is called Yan Jun, he is Chinese New Year's Eve three years old today, five years older than Yan Xun, he has been smart and diligent since he was a child, calm and practiced, and his brothers respect him very much.

Yan Dalang was admitted to the Jinshi at the age of twenty, and it also caused a lot of turmoil. Because he is young, he deserves to be a genius, but some people say that he is cheating and that the Yan family has bribed the examiner.

Rao is like this, Yan Dalang was still hand-picked to pass it on. Now he is a bachelor in the Hanlin Academy, and he has learned the past and the present, and he is only eight buckets.

He is not well-known in the literary world, because after he passed the exam, he concentrated on government affairs and rarely went to poetry meetings to show off.

Yan Dalang is a person who is a little boring and decent.

Yan Xun heard the footsteps, raised his eyes, and saw his eldest brother, who had always liked green shirts, wearing a black robe and entering the study with a pale face.

Yan Xun was puzzled and called the little guy to pour tea.

"Big brother, you're looking for me in the middle of the night. But what's the matter? Yan Xun saw that the calm hall brother's hand holding the tea trembled slightly. He asked out loud.

Yan Xun is not good at associating suspicions, but at this moment, he thought of the only thing that happened in the next house recently, and he thought of the second sister-in-law, Ling.

This thought made Yan Xun's heart feel slightly cold.

"Saburo. You have sealed the Hou Ye. Grandfather and grandmother look up to you. You can speak in front of the elderly. Big brother has something and wants to ask you for help. Yan Dalang decided again and again, but he still planned to be straightforward.

"Our brothers. Big brother, please say something. Yan Xun said, but he was vigilant in his heart.

"I—I don't want children, I just want adults to live!" Yan Dalang stammered for a long time, lowered his voice a little, and said.

After that, his face turned whiter, and there was no blood.

Hearing this, Yan Xun knew that he had not guessed wrong.

He looked at the lobby in disbelief.

This young man, who has been sensible and obedient since he was a child, behaved and behaved, how could he do such a ridiculous thing?

"The child in Ling's belly, is it yours?" Yan Xun put aside the cover and asked him directly.

Yan Dalang's eyes welled up with pain, and he nodded lightly.

Yan Xun's thick eyebrows frowned.

"Big brother, do you know the consequences?" Yan Xun said, "What woman do you want, actually"

Yan Xun couldn't imagine it.

Yan is such a family, the eldest grandson of the mansion, Yan Ji, whether he is upright or sneaky, what woman can't get his hands on, but he wants to act as a contrary to morality?

If this is revealed, the foaming star can drown the Yan family.

Yan Dalang's political achievements will also be stained, and he may often be impeached by the imperial history for "moral loss" in the future.

From the perspective of both the family and himself, he is suspected of having in his brain when he does this kind of thing.

Yan Xun has been in the northwest for 12 years, why have all these people in Beijing changed?

"I didn't want to steal chickens and dogs, I just" Yan Dalang wanted to speak and stopped.

Yan Xun was quite shocked, the lobby brother did such an ugly thing, regardless of his own morality and future.

Shocked, Yan Xun was not very angry. Although it is difficult for him to understand Yan Dalang's behavior, what is the matter with Yan Xun?

However, Yan Dalang's defense made Yan Xun unhappy: "Just what? It's just that Ling's seduced you, and you didn't control it? ”

Yan Xun hates men who dare to be brave and dare not be. I made a mistake, but I want to push it on the woman.

Yan Dalang raised his eyes and looked at Yan Xun in amazement: "Of course not!" She never seduced me, it was me."

Yan Dalang was a little speechless.

His face was full of pain, his shoulders could no longer support his head, and he lowered his head in despair, burying his face between his knees.

"There was an incident in the eleventh year of Xianchang, I don't know if you remember?" After a long time, he raised his head, his eyes were red, and the water had been erased.

Yan Xun calculated, Xianchang was eleven years old, he was only fourteen years old at that time, and his parents were still alive.

"More than ten years ago, where do I remember everything, which one did you say?" Yan Xun asked.

More than ten years of old things, except for the death of his parents, the rest of Yan Xun is really not too impressed.

"On the Shangsi Festival that year, I asked you to go to the river of the curtain and give a kite to a girl. As a result, you rushed too fast and squeezed the girl's maid into the river, remember? Yan Dalang described in detail.

As soon as he said this, Yan Xun remembered.

That year, his cousin was nineteen years old, and he was unmarried because he was determined to get married again after being admitted to the Jinshi exam. He was older and had a favorite girl's family, so he couldn't lean forward, so he asked the bold Yan Xun to help him deliver things.

Yan Xun is fourteen years old and is also a big child. But he was agile and brisk, and he still drilled into people's manzali, passing things for his cousin, and was never caught.

"I remember." Yan Xun still had a vague impression of this matter, but he knew that there was such a thing, "At that time, an elder happened to come over, I was in a hurry to run back, the little maid was behind me, and I accidentally pushed her down, fortunately, there were people around, and I was rescued safely." ”

After a pause, Yan Xun said again, "The master of that little maid is a little girl about the same age as me, her surname is Shi, and you were very infatuated with her at that time." ”

Yan Dalang smiled bitterly: "I am very infatuated with her, and I also told my mother to let my mother propose." My mother first disagreed, saying that the Shi family's family was too low, and then I begged my grandmother.

The next year is the spring season, and in order to appease me to take the exam, my grandmother decided to accept me first, and then secretly be Huang's family, so she pretended to go to the Shi family to propose marriage, and was ready to pick a thorn when she was ready to look at each other.

As a result, on the day I saw each other, I realized that the five girls mentioned by the maids were not the girls of the Shi family, but the cousins of the Shi family. ”

Yan Xun immediately remembered that Ling's mother's surname was Shi.

Before Ling's marriage, he had a discordant relationship with his stepmother, so he was taken by his grandmother and raised in the Shi family for several years.

Yan Dalang fell in love with her and fell in love with her for a long time before he mustered up the courage to ask his mother and grandmother to send someone to Shi's house to propose marriage.

When it was time to look at each other, I realized that I had made a mistake, and Yan Dalang was going to regret his marriage again.

He refused to say anything about the Ling family, after all, he was unmarried and looked at each other first, and in the eyes of the elders, he was unruly, and he was afraid of affecting the Ling family's reputation.

Yan Dalang first begged bitterly, and even threatened his parents and grandmother with his own scientific examination, asking to marry a girl from the Shi family.

As a result, he glanced at each other, he was in a cold sweat, knowing that he had made a mistake, and immediately regretted it, leaving his family confused.

The old lady sent someone to inquire, but she couldn't find anything, because the Ling family did not have any dealings with Yan Dalang, it was all his own personal affairs.

He doesn't say it, outsiders don't know.

He begged to say goodbye, and then he repented, and the marriage was put on hold for the time being. He wanted to wait until he was admitted to the Jinshi before begging to marry Ling.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the apricot list was released, his mother and grandmother set the Wei family for him.

Wei's father is a squire of the Ministry of Works, she is a veritable daughter of a high-ranking official, and her status is more worthy of the eldest grandson of the Yan family!
