A few sticky cicadas chirped noisily in the dense green shade, and the sun was scorching and dazzling on a midsummer afternoon, but there was a cool breeze on the deep and wide halls.

In the lotus-colored eight-treasure tent, the sword-eyed young man woke up from his drowsiness, and subconsciously called for his subordinates to come and serve him—only to open his mouth but found that because he had not eaten water for a long time, his throat was hoarse and could not make a sound for a while.

He was about to get up by himself, when he suddenly heard a mother-in-law muttering softly not far away: "Jiang Lin is really bold, the eighth grandson is only thirteen years old, and he usually teaches the son to slack off in his studies, and even dares to take the grandson to a place like 'Drinking Spring Building' - just go, and he doesn't even show his identity!" Those prostitutes were ruthless and vicious, treating Sun Gongzi as the son of an ordinary rich family, and even gave Sun Gongzi the medicine of the tiger and wolf! What does poor Sun Gongzi know at such a young age? It's been two days and two nights now, and the second master has come to see it three times and hasn't woken up, and I don't know if I can wake up? ”

"Phew! You damned! Do you dare to say such an unlucky thing?! It's a shame that there is no one else here, otherwise the second master knows, and it would be strange if he doesn't kill you - the second master's most painful thing is the one under the knee of the fourth son! Especially the fourth prince and his wife are now in northern Xinjiang, if Sun Gongzi has three longs and two shorts, the second master can't explain to them! ”

"Well, I'm not worried yet? Although it is said that the eighth grandson has a good foundation for brocade clothes and jade food, this time the 'Drinking Spring Building' is really vicious! Biased after them. There are people in the royal family in Taiwan, and the second master personally went to find the queen mother, and only handed over two stewards and prostitutes to come out to apologize, and the 'Drinking Spring Building' was not closed! The person who seriously harmed Sun Gongzi, God knows if he has done it! ”

"Don't say 'Drinking Spring Building' over there, the eighth grandson was originally studying at home, if it wasn't for Jiang Lin's temptation, how could he go to that kind of place?! Speaking of which, Jiang Lin was simply dizzy! He was originally a little maid personally selected by the fourth young lady for the eighth grandson, with the dignity of the eighth grandson in front of the second master, as long as he serves him well, there is still a need to talk about the future in the future? I just rushed to die! This time, the eighth grandson was killed like this by him, and the second master beat him to death in a fire, and even his family did not let go - since the Jiang family had a child, no one has ever fallen into such a fate as Jiang Lin! Pity him for his family, he is tired of taking him away! ”

"Don't you think it's strange to say that?"

"What?"

"Old sister, you also said it, that Jiang Lin, but the fourth young lady personally picked the person for the eighth grandson! How many people wanted to follow the eighth grandson? Jiang Lin can stand out from those many people and make the fourth young lady take a fancy to him, is it really stupid? He doesn't understand that he will serve the eighth grandson well, the fourth prince and the fourth young lady will never treat him badly in the future, not to mention, even the second master may be able to mix up some affection? ! No matter how busy the second master is, he has to spend time guiding the eighth grandson every day! ”

"Shhh You mean......? ”

"Probably coerced! Otherwise, it is the duty of a mere subordinate to serve the master well, as a son of the family, how can Jiang Lin not understand? As long as it's not a bad brain, who would put a serious future and don't care about it, and do such a self-destructive thing?! ”

"Hurry up and don't say that! Where are we now?! This is the courtyard of the eldest prince - let people hear that?! ”

"Humph! I just can't bear to look at the appearance of the eighth grandson! Even if it's just a cousin, you can't write two Jiang characters with one stroke! What's more, the second master treats the eldest son better than his own son! It's been like this for many years, what is he worried about the eldest son?! Even the second master can't tolerate having an outstanding male grandson - does he have to be happy if the second master has to cut off his grandson under his knees?! ”

"You're talking more and more nonsense, you don't want to live anymore, do you?! If you say that again, I don't dare to continue to guard the eighth grandson with you!! ”

"I ......"

"What are you talking about?!" Before the dispute between the two mothers-in-law was over, a cold and gloomy but majestic voice suddenly came from outside the hall!

"Knock on the second master!" The two mothers-in-law were suddenly silent, knelt down with a "plop", and hurriedly greeted the visitor, trembling and said, "Tell the second master, the eighth grandson and son...... He's not awake yet! ”

The visitor ignored them, but stepped inside and walked directly to the couch in the hall!

The young man in the tent closed his eyes in some mood, breathed evenly, and pretended to be still asleep—and the next moment, the tent was carefully pulled apart.

The person who came was his grandfather, the Duke of Darui Qin, the dry city of the country, and the father of the queen...... Jiang Qianchuan, who has countless glories, is no different from any grandfather in the world who is worried about his grandson at this moment, he bent down, first carefully stared at his grandson's pale face for a while, sighed imperceptibly, and then called softly: "Dan'er? Dan'er? Good boy, how are you? ”

The words are gentle, but it is not difficult for the listener to perceive the sourness and worry inside.

Jiang Yadan's eyes were also sour, and he was almost in tears - Jiang Qianchuan thought that he still needed some time to wake up, and after calling a few times, he sighed and reached out to touch his forehead, and tucked the corners of the quilt for him, and put down the tent.

The moment the tent was put down, Jiang Yadan's eyes couldn't control the tears that slipped down, and at this time he heard Jiang Qianchuan coldly order: "Drag these two old things down!" Another sensible person came to serve Dan'er! ”

"Second Master—"

"If you make a noise and disturb Dan'er's recuperation, you will be killed directly!"

“……”

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

After a short silence, the rustling of clothes came, mixed with a suppressed whimper, and it was supposed that the two mothers-in-law were taken down.

Then the old servant asked Jiang Qianchuan in a low voice: "Will the eighth grandson still live here in the future?" The room next door to your study is empty, so it's better to ...... This is also convenient for you to ask about the eight grandchildren's studies every day? ”

“…… Let's wait a minute! Jiang Qianchuan pondered for a while before sighing, "After all, when the fourth daughter-in-law left, she handed Dan'er over to them to take care of, and the fourth daughter also promised to do this when he wrote a letter." This time Dan'er had an accident, and the husband and wife had already pleaded guilty, if Dan'er was still taken away, where did you say Fu'er's face would be facing? When it gets out, they all say that I have a rift with him because of this! ”

"But the eighth grandson ...... this time," the old servant seemed to be unbearable, and reminded, "This time, it was thanks to Dr. Lin's medical skills that he was saved!" If I do it again, I'm afraid it will be the life of the eighth grandson......"

"This time it was an accident! There can't be a next time! Jiang Qianchuan's voice was a little cold, "Gu's ...... Hey! Say what 'drink spring building' after that. Taiwan is a member of the royal family, if the people in the royal family had not voted for the Gu family, they would still dare to swagger now?! I've written down this hatred! One day, the Gu clan will be returned! ”

For the sake of himself, his grandfather did not hesitate to regard the queen mother of the dynasty as an enemy - Jiang Yadan didn't feel any warmth in his heart, but was cold!

"The previous discussions of the two mothers-in-law, grandfather must have listened to all of them! Otherwise, how could the person who came with my grandfather suggest that I move to my grandfather's study?! But my grandfather obviously heard that I almost lost my life this time, and it was all my uncle's calculation, but he still couldn't bear to pierce my uncle, and would rather let me continue to fall into my uncle's hands! ”

"What won't let Gu go...... Although the Queen Mother and her grandfather are not in harmony in some political affairs, they still haven't torn their faces on the surface, how dare they touch me? If the people of 'Drinking Spring Building' knew that I was the grandson of the Jiang family, they wouldn't dare to use medicine to calculate me! ”

"Grandfather said this because he didn't want to blame his family, so he chose outsiders as a cover!!"

Due to his outstanding talent, Jiang Yadan has been loved and valued by his grandfather since he was a child.

So his parents went to Northern Xinjiang one after another, and after he was fostered in the big house, he was still a high-profile member of the family. Not to mention the Jiang family, the government and the opposition all know how talented and talented the eighth grandson of the Jiang family is, and how carefully cultivated, and the road paved in front of him is destined to be brilliant and prosperous - Jiang Yadan has never doubted this, and he is confident that he will be worthy of his grandfather's hard work.

It wasn't until Fang Cai that he heard his grandfather, who usually spoiled him like a treasure, so helplessly but firmly said, "If you still take Dan'er away, where will Fu'er's face be placed"?

It turned out that he, the most valued grandson, was expected by him to be the future grandson of the Jiang family, and his life and future were not as decent as his uncle's!!

He wished he hadn't woken up at all, still asleep as he pretended!

"It's better to wake up a little later, at least you don't have to hear the words of those two mothers-in-law?" Looking at Jiang Yadan on the top of the tent with blank eyes, he thought in despair, "I'm really asking for trouble, I should get up as soon as I wake up and wait for them!" Otherwise, how could they pinch the time when their grandfather came over and say that?! ”

And the reason why those two mothers-in-law did this, of course, was to tell Jiang Qianchuan - these two mothers-in-law were originally the hands left by Jiang Yadan's mother, Mrs. Zhuang, when she went to Northern Xinjiang - now that they know this, is it still difficult to guess their positions and intentions?

Even Jiang Lin, who they sighed and regretted, was serious about whose person gave whom, Jiang Yadan didn't even need to use his brain to think of it!

He had never hated the quickness of his mind so much - if he was still suspicious when he eavesdropped on the discussion of the two mothers-in-law, the moment he heard his grandfather's scolding voice, he actually figured out the ins and outs of the two mothers-in-law and Jiang Lin's style......

It's so late that it's too late for him to get rid of his thoughts!

So when Jiang Qianchuan came to see him, he instinctively chose to pretend to be asleep - the turbulent waves of his heart at that moment were difficult to describe in words! Obviously, there is chaos in his mind, but he still remembers that his grandfather is shrewd and must not be seen by him, otherwise he may ask his father's secret under pressure!

But he didn't expect that the end of pretending to be asleep was to be stabbed again!

"Father, don't blame the child for being unfilial, it's just that the weight of the child in Grandfather's mind is much lighter than you think......" he thought sarcastically and painfully—only after falling into Qinglou Dao'er's weak body, after several ups and downs in his emotions, he naturally fell ill.

The disease is three months.

In the middle, Jiang Qianchuan came to see very diligently, and every time he came, he was so gentle that the other Jiang clan disciples around him all showed jealousy, which also showed his love and pity for Jiang Yadan.

It's just that the more he is like this, the more Jiang Yadan feels resentful in his heart.

Of course, what made him even more desperate was that after he recovered from his illness, the newly replaced little girl, although he was beaten by Jiang Qianchuan in front of him, he had to take Jiang Lin as a lesson, don't think about it anymore, and turned around, but he still quietly put a maid who had a bit of a posture and had the heart to climb the bed into his room in the middle of the night.

The maid was smashed out of the door with an inkstone and was executed afterwards.

For a while, the people who served him were much more honest.

But just like Jiang Lin's family was disposed of at the beginning, a few months later, the old state reappeared - Jiang Yadan sadly realized: "Father is going to use me as bait and calculate the uncle?" ”

At first, of course, he was unwilling - even though everyone around me wanted me to lose, I was going to win!

Who can be a young man without a little spirit?

Especially Jiang Yadan's background and talent, as well as the teachings he received, it would be strange if he gave up on himself so easily!

It's just that......

I can't remember when, maybe I was too tired after reading hard at midnight, and I called the scholar to rub his shoulders, but there were two charming and lovely maids? That night, the wind was light and white, and the flowers on the spring night bloomed brilliantly and lingeringly, so that he unconsciously relaxed for a moment?

Or is it that the girl she met by chance when she was in the youth that year looked back and smiled, brightening the feelings at that time, and she was quietly asked out for a tryst again and again, until she realized such an encounter after abandoning her homework, what kind of dirty and calculating behind the scenes?

- He was finally disheartened, no longer struggling, and was helpless and willing to sink.

Jiang Qianchuan tried countless ways to save him - so Jiang Yadan knew that his grandfather really loved him, but he definitely loved Jiang Tianqiao even more!

Again and again, looking at Jiang Qianchuan's disappointed eyes, as well as the pain of hating iron but not steel, Jiang Yadan was indifferent, but also felt bursts of happiness: I am happy to see that you are not good, although the price is my future and my future!

Eight hundred enemies were wounded, and ten thousand were self-inflicted.

It's not that he doesn't know.

It's just that no matter how smart and clever he is, in the face of his biological father's layers of snares, as well as the looming push of his uncle, how can he escape when he is isolated?

"That's it, just end this life early, maybe it won't be like this in the next life?" He didn't care about it, waiting for the day when he would die logically - but after waiting and waiting, even if he deliberately gave all kinds of opportunities, death did not come for a long time, but his father gradually emerged in the army, and as the eldest son, even if he had another younger brother, even if he became more and more unlucky, his status in the family did not fall but rose.

In the impatience of waiting, he suddenly realized: "They don't want me to die? ”

Jiang Tianqiao and Jiang Tianchi, an uncle and a biological father, all wanted to calculate him, but they didn't want him to die.

How much of this is out of flesh and blood, and how much is afraid of violating Jiang Qianchuan's bottom line, only they know it.

For Jiang Yadan, this life that starts from glory but eventually goes to grandeur is like chicken ribs, the food has long been tasteless, and it seems like a pity to abandon it - they just don't want him to achieve anything, in addition, brocade clothes and jade food have never been slack, even if he is deserted to make his grandfather desperate, the prosperity of life is still a luxury that most people struggle for several lifetimes and lifetimes can hardly achieve - these elders don't love him, but they love themselves more.

Jiang Qianchuan seems to attach the most importance to the kindness of his eldest brother when he was a child, so that he loves his nephew more than his own grandchildren, and seems to know how to repay his kindness, but in fact, isn't it an extreme selfishness?

He only considered his own feelings of wanting to repay his kindness, but did not consider the thoughts of his children and grandchildren.

Jiang Tianqiao is accustomed to dominating everything in the family, and has long taken plunder for granted;

Jiang Tianchi did not hesitate to give up his eldest son to get the foundation of the Jiang family, he felt that he who had been wronged and paid a sufficient price should get the military power of the Zhenbei Army-
