Chapter 10: Father's News
Yan Heng was indeed very worried about the whereabouts of his cheap father Yan Zhun at this time.
Although his father will be named Sun Shan this time, he is still a famous county student in the end.
As long as he came back, his cousin who was plotting for his own property would not dare to go too far, after all, his father was a member of the strict family, plus a county student.
But if his father really didn't come back, Yan Heng really didn't know how his cousin would retaliate against him.
After all, he directly beat his cousin, and he fought because his father was a showman.
If his father doesn't come back, Yan Heng doesn't know what the consequences of offending the eldest son of the long house will be.
Although he is not an ancient person, he also knows the fate of offending the powerful figures of the clan in this era, and his cousin is the powerful figure of the clan.
Ouyang Jin saw that Yan Heng was wiping the corners of his eyes and sobbing again, looking very pure and filial, and he was also a little moved.
Ouyang Jin already knew that Yan Heng's father, Yan Zhun Kechang, had landed, and even made a fuss in front of the school envoy and was imprisoned in the Fenyi County Ya.
Because of this, Ouyang Jin didn't come to visit Yan Zhun's two sons a few days ago.
Even if Yan Heng was sick, Ouyang Jin didn't bother to ask, after all, he had a relationship with Yan Zhun, and what he saw was that Yan Zhun had the hope of being promoted, and he would be regarded as one more friend in the officialdom in the future.
But now that Yan Zhun has fallen again, Ouyang Jin also began to think that Yan Zhun may not have the opportunity to make a name for himself like himself, and he naturally has no need to make friends with Yan Zhun again.
Now that he has come to Qili Village again, Ouyang Jin just wants to take advantage of the crisis that Yan Zhun is in prison and may be expelled from his reputation to communicate the news to Yan Zhun's brother Yan Jie.
Although Yan Zhun's family does not own a family business, the entire Yan clan has accumulated a lot of wealth in the past few years by relying on Yan Zhun's fame, especially his brother Yan Jue, who has become the leader of Qili Village because his younger brother is a showman.
Ouyang Jin also knew that Yan Zhun had an excellent relationship with Yan Du, and Yan Zhun's status was directly related to Yan Zhun's status in the Yan clan in Qili Village.
Therefore, Ouyang Jin thought that he only needed to inform Yan Zhu of the news of Yan Zhun's imprisonment, and then persuade him, and Yan decided that he would ask him to help him get rid of it, so that he could save Yan Zhun out.
When the time comes, Ouyang Jin himself will be able to take advantage of the fact that he is a person from the county government and is a classmate with Yan Zhun to eat more kickbacks and get some money here, which can be regarded as making up for his losses in the past few years to help Yan Zhun's family.
When he met Yan Heng and Yan Song on the road, Ouyang Jin didn't want to pay attention to it.
It's just that as soon as he came, he saw Yan Zhun and Xiao Yan Song so diligent, Ouyang Jin couldn't help but stop for a while.
Seeing Xiao Yan Song writing four books at such a young age, this talent is already comparable to his little nephew Xia Yan, and he feels that he doesn't need to be so decisive on the surface.
After all, no one guaranteed that his classmates were strict that he could not be promoted to Jinshi, and his son could not be promoted to Jinshi, so he walked in and said a few more words.
And now that he saw that Yan Heng, the eldest son of Yan Zhun who he had never looked down on, was also sensible, Ouyang Jin naturally substituted himself into the position of Uncle Shi, and sighed:
"Well, Uncle Shi, I didn't want to tell you, but I can't live up to your filial piety, so I will tell you that you are your patriarch and have to hold on;
Your father didn't win the first place this time, and he made a big fuss in front of the great grandmaster, saying that he was cheating in the field, and was ordered by the great grandmaster to be imprisoned in the county, and it seemed that he was going to get rid of his fame, but he was persuaded by the Nanjing Military Department Shangshu Wang, who suddenly came to divide it, and said that he would be tried again;
But now it seems that there is still a lot of bad luck, but if you offend the great master, will it end well?
However, you don't have to worry, Haosheng is at home with your brother, and I will go to your uncle in a while to discuss how to rescue your father, and I will have to spend more money up and down. ”
Yan Heng couldn't help but be stunned, he was mentally ready for his father to return to the science field, but he didn't expect that his father would offend the great master and be imprisoned.
Thinking about it now, Ouyang Jin has gone from pretending to turn a blind eye just now to now being quite concerned, and he can be regarded as understanding why he behaved like this.
It is human nature to be guided by the situation, Yan Heng can understand it, after all, not everyone is a gentleman with true feelings, nor is he a completely cold-hearted beast, and now this Ouyang Jin can be considered good enough.
Yan Heng is not worried about what will happen to Ouyang Jin now, and he will take the opportunity to take many benefits from his uncle, what he is worried about now is whether his father will really get rid of his fame.
If his father is really dismissed, the last bit of political security for his Yan family will be gone.
For a poor but well-fed family, it is undoubtedly worse!
Because once the father loses his fame, it means that his family will have to bear the burden of forced labor and taxes!
My father also lost his income from a private school and his income as a student at a county school.
And that's not even the worst.
The worst thing is that his own clan is not really a family in the same boat, and his cousin will definitely intensify his efforts to take away his family's land.
Even Yan Heng is not sure that once his father loses the reputation of Xiucai, his uncle will still help his family under the pressure of his aunt Li.
After all, although his own family made him have to pay some money, but also because my father is a talent and borrowed some prestige, now that we give our uncle no political power, will my uncle start to listen to the words of the Li family for his own interests, and even sit back and watch his son, that is, his cousin, take away dozens of acres of land from his family.
His cousin and the people of the clan plotted to seize their own property, and his uncle, as the patriarch, would not know.
Maybe he is also waiting, and in addition, there is family affection, so he has not done so much, and like Ouyang Jin, he not only shows the concern of an uncle, but also deliberately dilutes the relationship.
Yan Heng can be sure that once his uncle learns about his father's current situation from Ouyang Jin, he will first confirm whether his father can be saved or not.
Once it is not saved, his uncle will choose not to save his father, and even directly express his support for his cousin's plot to seize his own property, so as to minimize the loss of his interests.
Even his uncle will make a deal with Ouyang Jin, it is best to let his family never turn over, after all, to seize the land is to offend his own family to death, if the uncle really has the ambition to seize his own land, he must also have the ruthlessness to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
However, his uncle may not be so resolute, maybe because his father is in prison, as a brother, he will still try his best to help, and even bankrupt the family.
But Yan Heng didn't dare to bet his fate on others, even if he was his uncle.
Yan Heng wasn't sure how sentimental a choice a person would make in the face of profit, and he wanted to strangle in the cradle the worst outcome of the crisis brought about by his father's imprisonment and dismissal.
Ouyang Jin can't be allowed to tell his uncle about his father's current whereabouts!
Absolutely not!
"Okay, I've also drunk the tea, you have to study hard, whether your father can get out of prison or not, you have to be stronger, I'll go talk to your uncle and see how to save your father!"
Ouyang Jin saw that the sky was getting darker, and it was not good to delay any longer, so he got up to leave.
And Yan Heng stopped him when he saw this: "Uncle Shi, slow down!" ”
Ouyang Jin stopped, secretly surprised in his heart, this Yan Zhunzhi's eldest son was neither indifferent nor panicked when he encountered such a big change, but also had a sense of being calm and light in the face of major events, and it didn't seem to be as stupid as he imagined.
And Yan Heng didn't wait for Ouyang Jin to speak, so he asked first, "Uncle Shi wants to buy land?" ”
