The mind gradually settled, and the mind became clearer and clearer.

Jiang Yichen looked back on the past.

Whenever he talks about his biological parents, whether it is Yinniang, or Uncle Yi, Uncle Yi and others are always silent, and they have never made it clear to him the exact identities of his parents, but the meaning of the words all shows that his parents are very outstanding and amazing characters.

Compared with today, presumably his father's weight in the rivers and lakes of Zhongzhou back then was no less than that of Feng Chen, ghosts and witches.

Once captured and can be used by Dongying, it can shake the foundation of Zhongzhou Jianghu to a certain extent, or launch a fatal enough blow to Zhongzhou Jianghu.

Only in this way can they have the value of being used by Dongying people.

Only in this way will the old man and others do everything possible to conceal his life experience, so that he can be trained like an ordinary member of the Moral Alliance.

Until he is strong enough to protect himself, he will always be one of the powerful options that the enemy will use to defeat his parents.

With the weight of his father, he will definitely not be an unknown person in this river and lake.

It is not inconceivable to call the old man and others brothers, and to talk and laugh with the old people.

In the letter, the old man asked the old man to inform him on his behalf, which further confirmed Jiang Yichen's inference.

Yao Lao should be a person who knows his father and mother well.

Sure enough, Yao Lao stroked his long beard and smiled: "I know, I know, how can I not know." ”

Hearing what Yao Lao said, Jiang Yichen obediently put on a deaf look.

Seeing this scene, Yao Lao was stunned for a long time, a little distracted and a little nostalgic, his eyelashes trembled slightly, as if someone from the past had appeared in front of him.

"You really don't resemble your father's temperament. ”

"Although that guy looks quite honest, he can be very sharp, can speak well, and is good at making friends with people, even when he meets me, an old man, he can talk about the country from health to governance, from governing the country to food, and he still feels happy after chatting for most of the day!"

"Your baby is left with a look that he has eight points of true inheritance, but unfortunately this face is thinner, the longer it is, the more it looks like it, it is too bitter, and it may be somewhat affected by the "Yin Fenggong", you don't realize how fierce you are if your face is gloomy. ”

"Forget it, don't mention it. ”

"Where do you start, huh...... The shadow of the tree, the name of a man, begins with the name of your father. ”

"Your father's surname is Lin, and he is famous. ”

Lin Zhaoyan?

When he first heard the name of his biological father, Jiang Yichen's brows couldn't help frowning, and there was a feeling of confusion in his heart.

As a qualified killer, Jiang Yichen believes that he has not only done a wide enough but also meticulous work on the basic work of intelligence gathering.

Although he had not yet known his father's name, or even his father's surname, and had not paid close attention to it beforehand, he was extremely sure that it had never appeared in any of the information or information he had come across in the past few years.

According to his previous inference, his biological parents should not be ordinary in the rivers and lakes of Zhongzhou, and there is obviously a force that deliberately erases the existence of his parents from the past history.

Is it the Moral Alliance?

Jiang Yichen didn't think that any force in the rivers and lakes would be so capable.

Unless......

This matter is in line with the interests of the imperial court, and it has the full cooperation of the imperial court!

Jiang Yichen was pondering, and suddenly felt that Yao Lao's voice stopped.

Immediately smiled bitterly, Yao Lao wanted to tell a story, and he listened carefully, presumably his questions would soon be answered in the story, and if he still had questions after listening to the story, it was not too late to ask.

Yao Lao was very satisfied with the young man's reaction, and continued to recall and tell the story of the past.

"Your father is a child who came out of the col, and his name was given to him after reading some books. ”

"Determined to make the Lin family and the name 'Lin Zhaoyan' famous all over the world in his lifetime. ”

"In fact, your father did it long ago, and it would never have been like this if the world had changed. ”

"The name 'Lin Zhaoyan' has been golden in those years, from the court to the rivers and lakes. ”

"However, at your age, your father's fame has not yet spread among the rivers and lakes, and his early deeds were more learned by the Moral League during his intimacy with him, and his earlier experiences were blown out by himself when he gossiped nonsense with us old fellows. ”

"Your father is the second oldest in the family, and has been farming in a small mountain col village in Fujian for generations, if he hadn't moved the idea of going out of the mountains to see, the old Lin family would definitely not be able to escape the burning and looting of Yingkou many years later. ”

"This Lao Lin family is also your hometown, oh no, to be precise, it should be your father and grandfather's hometown, and the place is much more closed than the medicine valley, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is in the deep mountains and old forests. ”

"Fortunately, there are still some people in the village who are not willing to live in a corner for generations, trying to go outside the village, after more than ten years of exploration, and finally found that the local abundant 'Baiya Qilan' tea is the best-selling outside the mountain, and then several families run a tea merchant business. ”

"In order to live a better life for the family, your father followed one of the tea merchants to and from the mountains when he was seven years old, and after five years of hard work, not only did not make your father skinny and bones, but his body and bones became more and more healthy, and his hands and feet were neater than ordinary people. ”

At the same time, he was busy reading and reading, and it was at this time that he chose a new name for himself. ”

"At that time, due to the constraints of the conditions, your father could not have access to many books, but he had already seen the way to success in books. ”

So, when he was thirteen years old, he entered the door of the mayor of Wuxia Town and served as the companion of the little prince of Ningfu. ”

"At that time, Ning Xiaogongzi was only eight years old and was lazy to study, and Mayor Ning's original intention of inviting the companion Reading Lang was naturally to use a child of recent age to guide his younger son's behavior, but he also knew your father's intentions. ”

"To be the head of a town, not only rely on power, but also on his knowledge and bearing, Mayor Ning not only did not expel your father from the door, but also the beauty of adults, so that your father can enjoy the books in the house while doing a good job of accompanying reading, and he will not hesitate to give advice to solve his doubts. ”

"Of course, your father is also very competitive, first at the age of sixteen years old in the township examination in one fell swoop, at the age of eighteen into Youjing, in the examination and then take the Huiyuan, in the palace examination to answer the old emperor's policy questions, quite the old emperor praised, hand-picked as the champion. ”

Yao Lao spoke calmly and eloquently, and Jiang Yichen was dumbfounded when he heard this section.

Although he had expected that his father would have an extraordinary encounter, he never imagined that there would be such a style as "Sanyuan and the first".

Seeing Jiang Yichen's reaction, Yao Lao expressed his emotion that had been silent for more than 20 years again: "Lianzhong Sanyuan, since the establishment of the imperial examination, there are only more than 50 people who have won this honor in thousands of years, and there are even fewer people who have such achievements at such a young age like your father, and because of the excessive martial arts in Zhongzhou in the past hundred years, your father's feat can be described as a once-in-a-century phenomenon!"

It's just that although the name of this champion is amazing, it is not easy to spread in this era, and there are more people who know its name than officialdom. ”

"The old emperor admired your father a lot, but after all, he was worried that he was too young and embarrassed to take on the task, so he only taught him to enter the Hanlin Academy to cultivate at the beginning. ”

"However, gold will always shine, your father has been in the Hanlin Academy for less than two years, in addition to not missing his job, he also won an example in the martial arts. ”

"He is both a literary champion and a martial artist, and the old emperor has the intention to cultivate your father as a good minister in the court in the next ten or even twenty years, so he will be transferred to the place to be tempered from one of the parents officials. ”

"From the magistrate of Fuhang County in Zhejiang to the magistrate of Jizhou, in just six years, your father has served as an official in ten states in Zhongzhou, first step by step, and then degraded and promoted, before the old emperor made up his mind to recall him to the court, your father has resigned and returned to the wilderness. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Yichen couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "What did my father do, and why was he demoted?"

Yao Lao glanced at the young man with poor concentration, no longer hung his appetite, and said: "Your father is strict with himself and lenient with others, and because he is a child of a poor family, he understands better what the people need and what officials should do. ”

Jiang Yichen was thoughtful when he heard this.

Yao Lao said: "If you have to say that he is guilty, it is that he has touched the interests of too many people. ”

Jiang Yichen understood it at a glance but had questions: "Officialdom does not allow my father, why did he let him become an official at the beginning?"

Yao Lao said: "It's very simple, the scene at the beginning is small, and the benefits are not big enough. ”

Yao Lao added: "Your father is a champion in the end, and he has been polishing since he was a child, how can he not have a heart of seven clever and exquisite? As a small magistrate, he needs to balance the interests of few points, and with his ability, he can allow all parties to exchange for more merit and benefits at the cost of smaller losses, and in the end, all parties will gain fame and fortune, and he will praise and be grateful to your father." ”

"Adding an official to a knighthood is just a matter of course. ”

"But as the stage gets bigger, your father doesn't have any tough backing except for the old emperor behind him, no matter how long his sleeves are good at dancing, it is difficult to make the people smile, and satisfy the interest groups. ”

"It stands to reason that the old emperor is a strong enough backer behind him, and who can be an official will not say that he is doing things for the emperor? Countless references have been handed to the court, and the old emperor refuses to support your father, so your father is a poor and white lonely minister with no background, how can he fight with others?"

"Moreover, since Fuhang County took office, your father took the Lao Lin family out of the small village of Fujian Mountain, and the family moved with your father seven or eight times in the past few years. ”

"Your father felt deeply unfilial and blamed himself, and after resigning, he found a stable place for the Lao Lin family, so he never interacted with the family again, and only took his wife to the rivers and lakes. ”

"Of course, the root cause of your father's resignation and departure is that the interests of officialdom are entangled, and this alone is not enough to make the old emperor give up his fight for your father. ”

"The most critical point is the rivers and lakes!"

"Your father is so good at making friends, and he has made a lot of friends like the old man and me. ”

"The imperial court has always been unkind to the rivers and lakes, not to mention that the rivers and lakes have been too strong for decades, and the old emperor dreams of changing this situation, and will always plan how to secretly suppress the forces of the rivers and lakes. ”

"If your father is just a person who is a person in the same rivers and lakes, then he will be reused by the old emperor. ”

"But your father has a heart-to-heart with the people of the rivers and lakes, if your father does not abdicate and return, I am afraid that he will also become the target of the imperial court in the future. ”

"Most of your father's stories are like this, and the other half is to be told with the other half. ”
