Meicheng was called Yanzhou in ancient times.

It is the place where Yan Ziling, a hermit of the Eastern Han Dynasty, lived in seclusion.

Therefore, the Yan family is the largest and most prestigious family in Meicheng.

A stream of light flew across the sky and fell into the Yan Ziling fishing platform on the bank of the Fuchun River.

Legend has it that this was the place where Yan Ziling fished every day.

There is an archway along the river that says "the mountains are high and the rivers are long", which is taken from the words in Fan Zhongyan's "Mr. Yan's Ancestral Hall": "The clouds and mountains are green and the rivers are vast. The mountains are high and the rivers are long with the wind of Mr. Yan."

When Li Muchen landed in the fishing platform, he saw that the river was wide open and the green mountains were rolling. The spiritual energy of the river gathered here. Here, you can bathe in the aura of the country and the mountains, and breathe in the essence of the sun and the moon. It is a good place for spiritual practice.

Thinking about it, Yan Ziling is definitely not a simple person.

It is a pity that now this place has become a tourist attraction. Many modern buildings are here. Although they deliberately create a simple look, they are still out of place. Coupled with the large number of tourists, the aura has been diluted a lot by the popularity.

After admiring the river view for a while, Li Muchen took out his mobile phone and navigated to the Yan family's mansion according to the address given by Lin Yun.

The door to the house was closed.

Li Muchen pressed the doorbell on the door.

After a while, a servant-looking man opened the door, looked at Li Muchen up and down, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Li Muchen said: "Is Ms. Yan Huimin here?"

"There is no such person here."

After the maid finished speaking, she closed the door with a bang.

Li Muchen was turned away and was stunned for a moment.

Keep knocking on the door.

It was him when the maid opened the door and said impatiently: "I told you there is no such person."

Li Muchen asked: "Is this the Meicheng Yan Mansion?"

The maid said: "Yes, but there is no one you are looking for."

Li Muchen said: "Then I'm not looking for Yan Huimin, I'm looking for Yan Gongye."

Yan Gongye is Yan Huimin's father and Lin Yun's grandfather.

Unexpectedly, the maid said: "Dead!"

After saying that, he slammed the door again.

Li Muchen was surprised.

died? impossible.

Yesterday, Lin Yun only said that his condition had worsened, and there was no bad news.

Moreover, even if he is really dead, he will have to hold a funeral ceremony. There is no way to close the door and turn away guests thousands of miles away.

Li Muchen took out his cell phone and called Yan Huimin.

Yan Huimin was overjoyed when she heard that Li Muchen had arrived in Meicheng, and drove over to pick him up personally.

Li Muchen was waiting at the door of Yan's house.

After a while, a car stopped on the side of the road. Yan Huimin got out of the car and stood waving to Li Muchen, as if unwilling to get closer.

Li Muchen walked over.

"Mu Chen, why are you here? You didn't say anything in advance so that I could be prepared." Yan Huimin said.

Li Muchen found that his future mother-in-law was very haggard.

It turns out that Yan Huimin has a virtuous temperament and is extremely well-maintained. Although she is in her late teens, she looks to be in her early thirties.

Now I actually saw white hair on my head, and my face looked gloomy and sad.

"I heard from Lin Yun that the old man's illness has worsened again, so I came here to take a look." Li Muchen said.

Yan Huimin said happily: "I have wanted to find you for a long time, but Qiu Sheng said that you went to the capital, and I was afraid of delaying your important event, so I didn't call you. Oh, now it's better. You are here, and my dad will be saved." "

Then he opened the car door and let Li Muchen get in the car.

Li Muchen turned back and pointed at the door of the Yan family's mansion and said, "Isn't this the Yan's mansion?"

Yan Huimin's expression darkened and she said, "Let's talk about it after we get in the car."

Li Muchen nodded and got into her car.

Yan Huimin said while driving: "My dad and I now live in the countryside. The air in the countryside is better, and he can eat fresh vegetables grown at home, which is good for his health."

Li Muchen knew that this might not be the case, so he said, "Auntie, what happened? You don't have to hide it from me."

Yan Huimin smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, yes, it's my fault. We are all a family. There is nothing we can't say. Alas -"

She sighed, "Actually, the cause is between our Lin family and the Yuan family. As you know, the Lin family is now alone. Apart from your friends Mr. Chen and Mr. Lang, there is no one willing to help the Lin family. Everyone who has anything to do with the Lin family Everyone who comes and goes has been suppressed by the Yuan family. Because of my relationship, the Yan family in Meicheng has naturally been implicated."

Li Muchen had already guessed this, it would be strange if the Yuan family didn't suppress the Yan family.

"My dad supports the Lin family, saying that no matter what grievances the Yuan and Lin families have, we should just do our best, continue to cooperate in business, and never regret the contracts that should be fulfilled. As for the family relationship, it cannot be changed. The facts cannot be alienated for any reason."

Yan Huimin continued.

"Other families in Meicheng fell in love with the Yuan family and took the opportunity to seize the Yan family's business. My father was an upright man and never wanted to abandon the Lin family. Under heavy pressure, he fell ill. It was at the critical moment. The family cannot be left without an owner for a day. My dad gave the position of head of the family to my eldest brother. But my eldest brother is henpecked, so the actual power of the Yan family is in the hands of my sister-in-law."

"My sister-in-law was afraid of the Yuan family's suppression, and I don't know what method she used. She suddenly became related to the Yuan family, saying that she was a distant relative of the Yuan family. So she completely turned to the Yuan family, announced that she was severing ties with the Lin family, and even sent me to the Yuan family. Kicked out of Yan's Mansion. It was precisely because of this that my dad's condition worsened. He scolded my eldest brother for being incompetent and scolded my sister-in-law for being treacherous. My sister-in-law kicked him out too. I could only pick up my dad and go to the countryside. Live in the old house.”

When she said this, Yan Huimin's nose felt sour and tears fell from the corners of her eyes.

This was a family matter, and Li Muchen couldn't say anything.

But since this matter involves the Yuan family, and the dispute between the Yuan and Lin families started because of him, he can't ignore it.

The car soon drove into a village.

We stopped in front of some old houses at the end of the village.

This house looks old at first glance.

Yan Huimin said: "The whole village here has the surname Yan, and they are all members of the Yan family. The country people don't have so many twists and turns, and they don't know about the disputes between the Yuan family and the Lin family, so they are very good to us."

Li Muchen followed Yan Huimin into the house.

The furnishings in the house are very simple, just like an ordinary farmer's house.

Yan Huimin's father, Yan Gongye, was lying on the bed in the back room.

"Dad," Yan Huimin called, "Look who I brought to see you!"

She pulled Li Muchen to the bed, "This is the Muchen I often tell you, Li Muchen, Mr. Li!"

Yan Gongye was very weak, and there was no color on his thin face.

He heard Yan Huimin's words, but couldn't reply. He just glanced at Li Muchen with his eyes sunk deeply in his eye sockets, and let out a breath.

Yan Huimin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said to Li Muchen: "My dad is like this now. He drinks half a bowl of porridge every day and can't speak. Fortunately, the medicine Dr. Sun gave him can save his life. Otherwise, he might not be able to wait. It’s your turn.”

Li Muchen glanced at the bed and asked, "Who is Dr. Sun?"

"He is a well-known old Chinese medicine doctor in Meicheng. The hospital was helpless about my father's illness, but Dr. Sun's medicine had an effect. Later, I went to see him for treatment."

"Are you familiar with Dr. Sun?"

"I wasn't familiar with him before. He's been visiting me these past few days, basically once every other day, so I'm pretty familiar with him."

"Who first asked him to treat the old man?"

"It should be my eldest brother."

"Bring me the prescription."

"There is no prescription. He has prepared the medicine and taken it as soon as he brought it. Oh, I still have a few pills here."

Yan Huimin said and went to the table next to her to get a small bottle.

Li Muchen opened the bottle and smelled it, and immediately knew what was going on.

It's just that he didn't understand why they wanted to drag Yan Gongye for half his life?

It seems that there are other plans.
