I Became the Older Brother of the Heroine in an Abusive Novel

When Xue Yan was in front of Jun Huailang, he still had the attitude of being unable to walk without being supported. When Jun Huailang was far away, he walked like flying and walked all the way back to his yard.

He passed by the bedroom, without even glancing in, he went straight to the study.

"Everything was brought to my table," he said.

Jin Bao hurriedly responded, trotted all the way, and beckoned to the two Jin Yiwei to send the important news sent from various places in the past few days to Xue Yan's study.

Xue Yan pressed the desk case with one hand, and casually picked up the top book with the other hand. The movement was smooth and natural, and it didn't look like he had been injured at all.

Jinbao waits by his side.

He was not surprised at all.He knows better than anyone how much his master's body is struggling.

A year and a half ago, he was beaten [-] times by the emperor, and he could not call an imperial doctor, apply medicine by himself, fetch water and clean it every day without fake hands, who can do it on others?

Although the master was seriously injured this time, he received such meticulous medical treatment, and was accompanied by His Royal Highness, and had a good recuperation for several days.

Jin Bao knew that the master was already fine, so he pretended to be pitiful in front of His Royal Highness, and asked His Royal Highness to come and see him again.

That is to say, His Royal Highness is kind-hearted, so he can be fooled by his master.

Over there, Xue Yan glanced at the letter in his hand.

This letter is from Dongchang.Apart from the daily bits and pieces of news from the court, a large amount of space was written about the affairs of the Xu family.

One is that the position of governor of Shandong was vacant, and the Xu family strongly recommended an unknown official.The position was originally a dispute between the Jiang and Xu families. The emperor was hesitating, but when he saw that the Xu family suddenly recommended such an official with no background, he immediately agreed.

The official did not have any outstanding features, but his family was rich, so he gave the Xu family a large sum of money, which was regarded as buying the official.

Xue Yan's gaze paused there.

Why is the Xu family so short of money?

He knew that since he took this position, the Xu family was not as peaceful as before, and the entire faction was turned upside down because of him.

It was also because of this that Xu's female family members were speechless, and Xu Xiang and his sons were devastated, so they let their only grandson go south to play, and until now they didn't bother to send someone to invite them back.

However, even so, the Xu family has great achievements and deep roots, and they will not give up the game with the Jiang family for money.

That being the case, there is only one possibility.

This official expressed his sincerity, and he will definitely be used by them in the future, and the Xu family is really short of money, and he doesn't know what to do with the money.

Xue Yan turned to the next page.

Emperor Qingping received the memorial from the Yongning Public Office, and he took it very seriously, and invited his officials to discuss it.Uncharacteristically, the Xu family did not object, but instead supported Emperor Qingping to allocate some money to prevent and control floods in the south of the Yangtze River.

Emperor Qingping readily agreed, and after the Xu family returned, they sent out a secret letter.

As for where the secret letter was sent to, Dongchang's influence was only in Chang'an, and if there were too many, it would be impossible to find out.

Xue Yan hooked the corners of his lips.

Where the secret letter was sent from, he could naturally guess.

It must have been sent to Jiangnan and delivered to Guo Rongwen.

He came out of the household department to manage the accounts for Yongning.Mr. Yongning is kind to him and trusts him, so he will naturally entrust him with the chores on the accounts.

Then, it would be very easy for him to be greedy for ink.

It's just that I don't know what the Xu family wants to do to make money.

Xue Yan turned back again.

For a moment, he smiled lightly.

"It seems that Dongchang is really afraid of the Xu family, even if Jieyu is dead, they don't feel at ease." He put the letter on the table, and gently tapped it with his index finger. "Do you want to use my hand to kill them, so that you can destroy what you have done?"

The people from Dongchang killed Concubine Rong, which Xue Yan already knew.

He was indifferent to his relatives and didn't take it seriously, but when they met him, these eunuchs thought they were smart and tried to play him around.

Xue Yan sighed lightly.

"Duan Fourteen." He said. "Turn harder, and when you return to Beijing this year, you can get Duan Chong's head yourself."

Duan Shishi in the dark took the order with his sword in his arms.

Xue Yan picked up another letter.

This letter was given to him by Duan Shishi.As early as a few days ago, he sent Duan Shishi back to Jinling in advance.

Sure enough, taking advantage of their absence, Guo Rongwen moved a lot of hands and feet.

He asked Duan Shishi to make trouble for the young master of the Xu family. Duan Shishi was unambiguous at all. It didn't take long for the young master to get involved in a life lawsuit and owe gambling debts.Xu Cong'an was alone in Jinling, so it was even more difficult to get money back home, so he went to find his father's lackeys.

It was Guo Rongwen.

Guo Rongwen is only a small official of the household department, and he took a car with Xu's family a few years ago, and only then did he get better.There was only one young master in the Xu family, so he naturally didn't dare to offend him, so he used his power to exploit the money he had handed over several times, and only then closed the hole of Young Master Xu.

However, this was all within his authority, so no trace was left.

What Xue Yan wanted was not traces either.

Now Guo Rongwen has no money in hand.Next, if Young Master Xu asked for more money, he had no choice but to take risks.

Once you take the risk, you will naturally reveal more and more obvious tricks and lies.

Xue Yan wanted this.

"I asked you to find the flower house, have you finished it?" Xue Yan asked.

Duan Shishi replied: "Go back to the Lord, it's finished. Hualou is one of the best in Jinling City, and has a great reputation. I found a woman named Yujing, and she has become ours. I just wait for the Lord's order. It will be held in the building."

Xue Yan nodded: "It's almost there, let's start."

Duan Shishi responded.

"Praise or praise, you must brag about your gods, but don't show your face easily." Xue Yan said. "If Duan Chong didn't teach you the principle of living in rare goods, I will teach you today."

Duan Shishi nodded yes.

"Go down." Xue Yan put down the secret letter and said.

Like a shadow, Duan Shishi disappeared in a flash.

Xue Yan raised his eyes to look at the dancing candle in front of him. After a moment, his eyes softened, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

It was extremely difficult to see such a soft expression on his face.But it was like a flash in the pan, fleeting, and then disappeared.

At that moment, what he thought of was Jun Huailang.

His father had an informant planted by the Xu family, so Jun Huailang naturally didn't know about it.

However, he doesn't need to know.

I will let this informant who has been buried quietly disappear without a sound, together with those people behind me who are ready to harm the Jun family.

Xue Yan withdrew his gaze and refocused on other letters.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.

Everyone under Xue Yan has rules, it is not an important matter, and it is absolutely impossible to disturb Xue Yan when he is in the study.

Jin Bao hurried to open the door.

There was a young man standing at the door with a worried expression on his face.

"Speak up when you have something to say, what are you talking about?" Jin Bao scolded.

As soon as the boy raised his head, Xue Yan also looked up at him.

His legs softened and he almost fell to his knees.

"Go back to the prince." He said tremblingly. "Just now, Fu Yi who is next to His Royal Highness came..."

"What?" Xue Yan asked.

The servant went on to say: "... Said, His Royal Highness asked the prince to recover from his injuries, and he will not come here in the next few days."

Xue Yan's hand holding the letter paused.

Unexpectedly, the boy hadn't finished speaking.

"His Royal Highness also said that if there is nothing important, please ask the prince...don't look for him."

-

Jun Huailang didn't fall asleep all night.

He held that page of paper and didn't dare to look at it again, but he still held it in his hand and couldn't let go.

Maybe this life has changed too much and lived too peacefully, maybe he put all his attention on his father's affairs, and gradually forgot the past life.

He forgot how Xue Yan in his previous life was related to him, and what relationship he had with Ling Huan...

He could not pursue Xue Yan because he had done nothing in this life and was an innocent person, but he... couldn't fall in love with him.

Even though all kinds of things in the previous life had never happened, and no one else knew about them, he was aware of them.

He can't have such feelings for the other party without knowing it.

...but he did it anyway.

He must not be so immoral, contrary to his conscience and nature.

He knew that although he was soft-hearted, he was always very principled.

Under his own moral principles, he will never stop doing what should be done, and he will immediately stop doing what should not be done, and never touch it again.

But this time is different.

Chaos.

He knew that he shouldn't like Xue Yan, he should restrain himself in time, cut off contact with the other party, or put away such thoughts.

But he has never liked anyone, and he doesn't know...

Once this kind of thought is born, it doesn't mean to put it away.

He has always known himself that even if he can't control others, he can certainly control himself.

But now... His own heart seems to be a little out of control.

The more he knew what to do, the more he wanted to force himself, the more uncomfortable he felt.It was as if a ball of wet cotton was stuffed in his heart, which made his chest so painful that he could hardly breathe.

Although he is gentle, he has a cold nature. In the past 20 years of his past and present lives, he was the only one who was moved by this person.

But it was the one who should never be tempted.

Jun Huailang was lying alone in the tent, holding the torn page in his hand.Before he knew it, the rising sun fell on his bed through the gap in the bed curtain.

A bright light just shone on the back of his hand.

Jun Huailang looked at the light, then spread his hands apart, quietly looking at the line of writing as if masochistic.

[The corner of Xue Yan's lips curved into a cold arc...]

Jun Huailang frowned.

He suddenly realized that the Xue Yan described in this note was extremely strange.

The Xue Yan he knew would never show such an expression or say such a thing, let alone take revenge on the other party because the other party had been kind to him and then withdrew his goodwill.

Jun Huailang tightened his hand holding the paper slightly, facing the light, and slowly sat up.

For a moment, he began to suspect that what was written in that book was false.

Fuyi outside heard the movement, and quickly pulled up the bed tent for him, and waited for him to get up.

Jun Huailang didn't say a word, but Fu Yi saw his expression first.

"Young master, did you not sleep well yesterday?" He asked. "Why don't you have any spirit."

Jun Huailang hummed, his voice a little hoarse.

"Nothing," he said.

"What is the young master holding in his hand?" Seeing that he was holding a piece of paper in his hand again, Fu Yi hurriedly asked when he saw that it was crumpled. "Shall I throw it away for you?"

With a movement of his fingers, Jun Huailang took the piece of paper into his palm.

"No need," he said.

Fuyi also saw that he was not in good spirits, so he didn't say any more.But he was also worried about his young master, it was only when he had some kind of dream, that the nightmare came, that he would be so abnormal.

That being the case, you have to say something to divert his attention.

Fuyi racked his brains, and suddenly remembered Jinbao who met in the corridor this morning.

Yes, the young master has always had a good relationship with His Royal Highness Guangling King.

Fu Yi hurriedly said: "By the way, young master, this morning, this slave met Mr. Jin Bao."

Jun Huailang's eyelashes trembled.

He heard Fu Yi say: "Grandpa Jinbao said that the prince was busy with general affairs, so he went to the yamen early in the morning regardless of his illness. He said that he couldn't persuade him, but he was worried. He wanted you to be free, so he went to persuade the prince. "
