Monument Yangmen

Chapter 5 The Unavoidable Pan Family

A big scene ended with Yang Yansi screaming and wailing. He had no idea that the old man's behavior was so simple and rude, and he was totally unreasonable.

The old man was also very particular, and he didn't embarrass Ah Qi.

After ordering the old housekeeper, Anan, to pull Ah Qi away, eight strong and powerful men pushed Yang Xi to the ground and slammed her...

The process was horrible, at this moment, Yang Yansi was obediently standing in front of the old man in Ah Qi's tearful eyes.

The old man was very satisfied with Yang Yansi's attitude at the moment, and asked arrogantly: "Now you can tell the old man that you can reach the painting skills of Daya Hall?"

"This kind of superb painting skills can only be learned by those who are truly elegant."

The old man turned his head and asked the old butler Anan with a blank expression, "What does he mean by that?"

The old butler, Anan, nodded and bowed doggedly: "If you go back to the master, what he means is that you are not a person of noble character."

"Oh~" The old man looked suddenly enlightened, and turned around to tell the servants, "Keep fighting!"

The eight burly men raised their fists the size of sandbags again.

Yang Yansi resolutely admitted, "Enough! I can tell you, but you have to answer a few questions for me."

The old man raised his hand to stop the strong man who was about to push Yang Yansi to the ground and rub against him.

"As long as the old man knows, the old man will know everything without saying anything."

Yang Yansi tidied up his clothes and asked, "Have you been an official for dozens of years?"

The old man was taken aback for a moment, not understanding why Yang Yansi asked this question, but still nodded.

"You should know something about the things in the palace, right?"

When it came to matters in the palace, the old man frowned obviously, and said in a calm voice, "Boy, spying on the court is a serious crime. Don't ask questions that you shouldn't. Otherwise, your father won't be able to protect you."

Yang Yansi frowned, and immediately guessed that the old man must know some unknown secrets in the palace.However, he will definitely not reveal it to himself.

However, Yang Yansi doesn't need to know any court secrets, he just wants to know who is in charge of the greenhouse in the palace.

"The old man misunderstood. Recently, the boy enjoys the melons and fruits given by the palace. He is a little curious about the greenhouse in the palace and wants to find out."

The old man asked Yang Yansi curiously, "Really just want to know about the greenhouse in the palace?"

"nature!"

The old man shook his head secretly, sighing secretly that he was overthinking, smiled brightly, and said: "You are asking the wrong person about the hothouse in the palace. The hothouse in the palace was built by your general family, and now you are taking care of the hothouse. , it was you who married the door out."

"General?" Yang Yansi frowned slightly.

The old man has lived in the officialdom for a long time, and his ability to observe words and demeanor has been deeply rooted in his bones. When Yang Yansi frowned, a series of relationship chains appeared in the old man's mind.

When a relationship chain was connected together, the old man smiled, "It's normal if you don't know. Although you belong to the general family, the relationship between your two families is not harmonious."

"Oh?"

The old man explained Yang Yansi's doubts: "The person in charge of the greenhouse in the palace is Concubine Pan Guifei from the general's Pan family. And your Yang family and Pan family have some grievances. You don't live in court, so it's normal if you don't know."

The Pan family?Concubine Pan?

Pan Renmei!
The name popped up in Yang Yansi's mind.

It stands to reason that Yang Qilang's killing of Pan Bao in the arena did not happen, and after his soul was replaced, such a thing was even more impossible to happen.Why are the Pan and Yang families feuding?Could it be through a chain reaction?

Yang Yansi couldn't understand it, so he asked the old man to explain it.

"Old man, where does this resentment come from?"

The old man smiled cheerfully, "This resentment! It stems from an official position. Relying on His Majesty's favor, Concubine Pan Gui asked His Majesty for the position of a fifth-rank general Dingyuan for her younger brother Pan Bao. Never thought, you Yang My father and son defeated the Liao army at Yanmen Pass, and after the squadron returned to the court, His Majesty rewarded your elder brother with this official position. This grudge is over."

"General Dingyuan?"

Seeing Yang Yansi's pensive face, the old man interrupted, "Boy, this is not something you should think about. You have never set foot in the court, and these grievances in the court have nothing to do with you. The old man thinks that your boy wants to warm the house. , it’s very difficult. I’d better take advantage of this moment to tell the old man about this painting technique.”

"The boy understands."

People should not know about the poison in melons and fruits, and Yang Yansi didn't dare to think about it in front of the old man, for fear that he would see something.

The excuse topic of warming the house was also ended by the old man.Under the threatening eyes of the old man, Yang Yansi obeyed.

He led the old man up to the small building, and the eight servants hulala guarded the old man, crowding the small building to the brim.

Yang Yansi ordered Ah Qi, who was squeezed in the corner, to go to the kitchen to find some charcoal.

A scene was set up with a basket of melons and fruits and a piece of linen sent by Eunuch Quan.

Under the curious eyes of the old man, the old housekeeper Anan, and all the servants, they picked up a wooden board, nailed rice paper on it, and began to draw.

After a while, a close-up charcoal sketch appeared in front of everyone.

A group of people stared at the painting on the drawing board, amazed again and again.

Pomegranates, pears, watermelons, and fairy peaches are so lifelike that they seem to be carved out of molds.

The old man's eyes were bright, and after Yang Yansi took the painting off the drawing board, he grabbed it decisively, hugged him tightly like a baby, and then walked away with his family.

Before leaving, he left a harsh word to Yang Yansi.

"Wait for the old man to copy it for a few days, and then I will come back to you. If you dare to play tricks with the old man again, be careful that the old man will teach you."

Yang Yansi had already seen the old man's domineering, since he had no choice but to let him go.

As soon as the old man left, Yang Yansi drove Ah Qi out of the small building and asked her to play by herself.He was alone, holding the cage for the mice, hiding in the small building and meditating.

……

In front of the window of the small building, the mouse that ate the melons and fruits in the birdcage had died, and Yang Yansi's expression was gloomy and terrifying.

According to his speculation, Concubine Pan Guifei was probably the one who poisoned her, and Eunuch Quan, who gave melons and fruits, must be an insider.

It's really insane for a noble concubine to dare to blatantly poison a great general of the court.

"It seems that if you want to protect the Yang family, the Pan family can't get around this hurdle."

Yang Yansi originally thought that as long as he avoided meeting Pan Bao in the ring in the future, he would be able to remove the great enemy of the Pan family for the Yang family, but now it seems impossible.

Do you want to expose this matter?
As soon as this idea arose in Yang Yansi's mind, he rejected it.

Yang Yansi weighed the pros and cons. With his current status, if he exposes the matter, it is very likely that nothing will be done. At most, he will force the Pan family to throw out a scapegoat.

Tell Yang Ye?

No way!With Yang Ye's upright personality, he would most likely go to the Golden Palace and confront Concubine Pan in court.In court, Yang Ye couldn't compete with the treacherous and cunning Pan Renmei and the concubine Pan Guifei.

You have to find a way to solve this matter yourself!
