Chapter 144

Shu Yan was sitting on the carriage. It was already dark and there were no pedestrians on the roadside.

The old housekeeper was driving outside with a faint smile on his face. This smile, in Shu Yan's opinion, was extremely ironic.

Shu Yan said, "Old housekeeper, are you feeling proud?"

The old housekeeper smiled and waved his hand. He stopped making any expression and drove back to the Chen Mansion.

Cheng San was waiting outside the door well. After seeing Shu Yan, he still had a smile on his face, and there was no hint of guilt on his face.

Shu Yan got off the carriage and walked slowly on purpose. Cheng San hurried forward and said with a smile: "Godmother, you are finally back. The moon is in the sky."

Shu Yan sneered, thinking to himself that this old boy is really naughty.

Shu Yan followed Cheng San into the courtyard. The boy had already driven away all the servants, leaving only a beautiful woman. When Shu Yan got closer, he could see the woman's face clearly.

It was the green bead that was made in the Sun family. Didn't this green bead go to Baili Linxun? Why did it appear in Taiyuan City.

Shu Yan thought a lot for a while. It seemed that Taiyuan City had been infiltrated into a sieve.

Cheng San whispered: "Godmother, Baili Linxun is determined to attack Pingqiu this autumn."

Shu Yan's eyelids twitched.

If the form of the Dayin Dynasty could be divided into four forces, although her second nephew also had some troops in the southwest border, they were nothing compared to the other four groups.

Baili Linxun occupied Xiliang and was choked by Pingqiu.

Although we formed an alliance with Chen Shengzhi here last year, it would not last long after all.

Cheng San saw Shu Yan's expression and said with a smile: "Goddess, the King of Han in the capital massacred all the wealthy families who stayed in the capital this winter, collected a lot of treasures, and distributed all the land they got. Refugees, I heard that there are hundreds of thousands of refugees who have landed."

Luzhu interjected: "After a winter, the plague in Jiangnan has been relieved. The King of Han's army has withdrawn from Jiangnan, and I think they will definitely fight back this autumn."

Shu Yan was stunned for a moment, which meant that this year's autumn harvest, Old Man Chen would be attacked from both sides.

The land of Jiangnan is still nominally the territory of the imperial court. If Chen Shengzhi wants to sit on his emperor's throne safely, Jiangnan must not be lost.

After Shu Yan thought about this, she looked at Lu Zhu and asked softly: "That boy from Baili, did you come here to tell me about the general trend of the world?
Luzhu quickly smiled and said: "I am a girl who doesn't understand what my godmother says. I am just here to serve my godmother."

When Shu Yan heard the name godmother, he couldn't help but frown. Why did everyone call him godmother?

Shu Yanpi smiled and said, "You go and rest first. This kid and I have something to say."

Shu Yan led Cheng San to the study, her relaxed expression disappeared, and she stared at Cheng San.

"My third son died because of you?"

Cheng San took a deep breath and put away the playful smile on his face.

"Godmother, Saburo's death is indeed related to me. What I am doing now is what he wanted to do."

Shu Yan frowned. She stared at Cheng San. Cheng San still had the same expression. Shu Yan remembered the first time he saw Cheng San.

"You brat, you must be hiding many things from me."

Cheng San smiled and stretched out his hand to rub Shu Yan's shoulders.

"Godmother, let's live like this for now. The truth will be revealed one day. Then we can discuss right and wrong?"

Shu Yan nodded.

After Cheng San finished speaking, he left the study. It was already very late. Shu Yan could only yawn and went to his bedroom.

This day passed with great anxiety, but fortunately Shu Yan was so arrogant that he fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed.

When I woke up early the next morning, it started to rain outside.

Shu Yan walked out and happened to meet Chen Shengzhi who was coming over. There was a lot of rain on this man's shoulders, and he looked a little embarrassed. Who would have thought that he was the regent who could cover the sky with one hand.

Chen Shengzhi was still wearing official uniform and had obviously just returned from attending court.Some scenes from the past suddenly appeared in Shu Yan's mind.When they were young, Chen Shengzhi also went to court early in the morning, and when he came back, Shu Yan was still sleeping.

When Chen Shengzhi saw Shu Yan's expression, he knew that Shu Yan must have thought of the past.

Chen Shengzhi patted Shu Yan on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Has Ayan thought of the past?"

Shu Yan knocked Chen Shengzhi's hand off in disgust, and then said, "If you fart, hurry up."

Shu Yan was usually impatient. Chen Shengzhi chuckled twice and sat aside.

"There has been something strange happening in Xiliang recently. Do the people there have any contact with Madam?"

Shu Yan frowned.

"Aren't you asking knowingly?"

Chen Shengzhi laughed twice.

"Madam, all you need to know is that Jiangnan will not be lost, let alone Pingqiu, as long as the court has me, Chen Shengzhi."

Shu Yan looked at the back of the old man's head, and there were already a few white hairs on it.

Shu Yan chuckled twice.

"You are really confident."

Chen Shengzhi shamelessly took Shu Yan's hand, and Shu Yan instinctively felt disgusted.

"Don't touch me, what's the matter with you?"

Chen Shengzhi smiled and said, "I am going to choose an auspicious day for Yu An to ascend the throne."

Shu Yan frowned: "And then ask Yu'an to give up the throne to you?"

In Shu Yan's estimation, Chen Shengzhi's plan is to keep the two places this year, Yu'an ascends the throne and then abdicates the throne to him at the end of the year.

The two of them were speechless, and Shu Yan said, "After the Zen position, I will take Yu'an away and die in anonymity somewhere."

Chen Shengzhi shook his head.

"Ayan, the other village outside the city is the place I found for you to stay anonymous."

This old boy had already thought about what to do from the beginning. Shu Yan didn't know how to curse for a while, but Chen Shengzhi's next words shocked Shu Yan.

Chen Shengzhi: "I never doubted that the third child was not my biological child before, but now I do have some doubts."

Shu Yan frowned and stared at Chen Shengzhi.

Chen Shengzhi continued: "Don't you know exactly what the Holy Emperor did to you that night?"

When Chen Shengzhi left the capital with Shu Yan, many people suspected that Shu Yan, a follower of the Demon Queen, had seduced the Holy Emperor.

Shu Yan gritted his teeth and said, "I told you, I have forgotten many things in the past."

It seems that there are a lot of dirty things between this couple.

Chen Shengzhi's expression did not change. Shu Yan smiled and said, "But it sounds like I was a cuckold to you before. When I think of this, I feel a little relieved."

Chen Shengzhi sighed slightly.

"Does Ayan really want to put all the past friendship to rest?"

Shu Yan smiled and said, "I thought our friendship was gone the moment you left me."

Although Shu Yan was not particularly sad, every time he dreamed about it at midnight and saw so many godsons and goddaughters, he felt that the original owner's first half of his life seemed to be in vain.

Because too many white-eyed wolves were born.
