Chapter 473: Brother

Today is just the first day of the final round of battles in the Beginner Ceremony, but a lot of unexpected things have happened.

But looking at the pair of brothers standing quietly face to face with their swords drawn on the battle platform, it still makes people sigh.

"Has it changed from a national civil war to a family civil war......

"It's too much of a coincidence to sign today......"

"This Chen family's son-in-law and concubine seem to be the same age, right? This is the head of the Chen family...... Gee. ”

"I heard that the wife of the Chen family was pregnant before her husband went to the battlefield, but it happened that the border war Da Sima went to the north, and the wife of the Chen family sent the dowry girl to serve in the army."

"I've heard that, too! Hi! Later, Mrs. Chen died in childbirth after giving birth to her sister-in-law, and she was waiting for her husband to come back before she died, but it was not until the full moon of her sister-in-law that Chen Dasima returned triumphantly. ”

"This big Sima came back and didn't attend his wife's funeral before he bumped into his son-in-law's full moon banquet, and guess what? When I entered the house, I was holding a child in my hand! ”

"I said I was born on the way home, just three days ago."

"Okay, now the full moon of the sister-in-law and the washing of the concubine are done together!"

Looking at the pair of brothers who were almost as tall on the stage, the things that everyone was talking about were a little off.

Although Ying Baoyue had found out a lot of past events in the family when investigating the Nanchu family before. But I have to say that these backhouse anecdotes are always rumors in the market, and there are more details and details.

Even more thrilling, heart-wrenching.

For example, she had heard that Chen Zichu had a difficult birth.

For example, at that time, Chen Dasima had lured the enemy deep into the battlefield and disappeared for a long time, and the people in the military formation thought he was dead.

And this is not something she heard about from other people.

Chen Zichu and Chen Zihan were born seventeen years ago, when she was nine years old, and Nan Chu had been subdued by Qin.

The battle they were born in took place on the border between Houliao and Xirong, led by her master, when the war was urgent, the northern garrison was seriously attrition, and her master was forced to transfer troops from the south to the north, and it was Chen Zichu's father Chen Yan who led the army at that time, and he was only a chariot general.

At that time, she followed the master and watched the young and vigorous general lead the army forward. The master was a little disgusted with his youth, but later the courtiers who accompanied him said that the general's pregnant wife was at home and he was leading the army to come, so it was difficult to say anything more.

That's how wonderful things are.

Looking at the pair of brothers on the high platform, Ying Baoyue's eyes were slightly deep.

How could she, who was still young at that time, think that so many years later, she would actually have such an intersection with the child who only existed in words at that time.

And she didn't know that after that war, there were other stories.

Even if you are in the same army, it is impossible to understand so clearly how to say that the little maid next to the general is also pregnant.

It's just that when Chen Yan volunteered to lure the enemy, he begged the great secretary to take care of the subordinates and Nanchu's family left in his tent if he didn't come back.

Her master made promises to him one by one.

Then Chen Yan went deep alone and disappeared into the depths of the Xirong army, and there was no news for a month.

Everyone thought he was dead, but it was a pity but it was a common occurrence on the battlefield. But her master didn't give up and told her to go out and look for her. Later, near the end of the battle, she found Chen Yan dying in a cave.

Chen Yan did not die, because he successfully lured the enemy to be promoted to three levels in a row, and his family background and military exploits finally laid the foundation for him to become the Great Sima of Southern Chu in the future.

She witnessed the rise of a young general by her master's side, but she didn't know that behind this young general, there was a woman's blood and tears.

I heard that Chen Zichu's mother was worried about her husband on the battlefield when she was pregnant with him, and she was worried about the improper fetal position, and after hearing the bad news that Chen Yan disappeared on the battlefield, she had fetal gas and was born prematurely.

Eventually, the situation became the perpetual dilemma of whether to keep the big or the small. Chen Zichu's mother was from a famous family, and her mother's family was around at that time, so it stands to reason that no one would force her to protect the child, and the decision to protect the child is said to have been made by Mrs. Chen herself.

In the end, the woman died before she could take a look at the child she had born.

General Chen Xiao, who hurried back, returned home to usher in the funeral of his wife and the full moon of his eldest son.

"It's a shame that Mrs. Chen gave birth to the eldest son back then, otherwise the son left behind would be in a worse situation!"

The people in the audience are still talking.

"It is said that if Mrs. Chen had survived back then, and watched her husband enter the door with a concubine, I don't know if she would be angry again......"

Ying Baoyue stared at Chen Zichu and Chen Zihan on the battle platform.

The two of them are brothers-in-law, and such brothers are not uncommon in the family, and they are also natural rivals.

However, because of a series of past events between Chen Zichu's mother and his father, the relationship between the two brothers should be more sinister than that between other sisters-in-law.

For some reason, Ying Baoyue remembered Ji Jiashu and Ji Qingyuan. But this Ji Qingyuan is not a concubine, but an illegitimate child, and the relationship between the two is even more special.

From Chen Zichu's point of view, when he grew up, he listened to his parents, and he can imagine how complicated his feelings were for his father.

Even if it's hate, it's entirely possible.

"I heard that Zihan Gongzi's mother took care of Da Sima when he was injured, and finally moved Da Sima to give birth to that concubine......"

"But I haven't heard of him being righted for so many years...... Da Sima didn't even marry again......"

From the perspective of the deceased Mrs. Chen, Chen Yan's behavior back then can be said to be an out-and-out scumbag.

It was not strange that Chen Zichu hated his father no matter how much he hated him.

was born without a mother, and there was an extra mother-in-law and a cousin of the same age, so you can imagine how dangerous the situation of this newborn sister-in-law is.

Many families have such sons-in-law who have disappeared quietly and died.

But Chen Zichu grew up healthy and healthy to the age of seventeen, and his personality was still very flamboyant, and he became a famous merry boy in Danyang City, not at all like growing up looking at people's eyes.

When Ying Baoyue checked the information after returning to this world, she found that the wife of the Great Sima of Southern Chu had passed away for seventeen years, but there had been no new hostess in the Great Sima Mansion of Southern Chu.

When Chen Yan returned triumphantly, he had made great achievements for his noble family in his youth, and his wife died, which was the hot time.

But the young general refused all proposals, and even almost turned against his father, that is, he did not marry a wife.

Some people thought that this young general wanted to help the mother of his son, but Chen Yan didn't do it either.

He just ordered someone to carry his eldest son to his room and raise him with his own hands.

As for the concubine who everyone carried back to the house with their own hands, they never asked again.

Ten years is like a day.

Chen Yan inherited the position of Great Sima, but still refused to remarry.

The young and frivolous young general has become a stubborn and cold old general, making some people who are about to move unable to move.

Grievances are the grievances of the previous generation, but it is the next generation that is affected.

A child loses its mother and has a father.

And the other child has a mother but not a father.

On the battle platform, the bell rang for the start of the battle.

Chen Zihan pulled out the heavy sword on his back and looked at Chen Zichu, who was also drawing his sword out of the sheath on the other side.

Chen Zichu's sword was very light and agile, with a unique pattern carved on the scabbard and hilt, and Chen Zihan knew that it was specially made by their father, Chen Yan, by a famous artist.

And the heavy sword in his hand said that it was a heavy sword in the army, but their father brought back a bunch of swords from the army on a whim for Chen Zichu to pick, Chen Zichu was not interested, he picked it up from the pile of waste swords left by Chen Zichu.

Since he was a child, he could only use what was left over from this brother.

"Big brother, you know what?" Chen Zihan quietly pointed the sword in his hand at Chen Zichu and spoke softly.

"I used to hate you."
