Chapter 216 Yan Family

In fact, Mu Qingyan has long been aware of the violation of the Mu family. The biggest point is Mu Qingyan's existence, and the other is Mu Lin's vigilance towards strangers.When he first came into contact with Mu Qingyan, he could clearly feel Mu Lin's probing and defensiveness. If Mu Qingyan was a woman, there would be an explanation for Mu Lin's reaction. Otherwise, it would be strange.

He had investigated the details of the Mu family, but did not delve into it.

"Why do you ask this?" The relationship between the two was already close, so Wen Jixue asked directly without probing.

Mu Qingyan smiled and pretended to frown: "You should have noticed that the Mu family's attitude towards me is not normal."

Wen Jixue also laughed: "Anyone with eyes can see it, this is not normal."

Mu Qingyan nodded in agreement: "The Mu family settled in Fenglin when they escaped from the famine. However, I suspect that they settled in Fenglin not because of the famine, but because of the famine to cover their identities. From the analysis of my elder brother's few words, we My family should be in the capital, but my family had to run away, or even hide my name. My elder brother didn’t tell me what I really wanted. I can only guess that our family has an irresistible enemy, so elder brother, even parents, they I just hope that I can live in peace and security."

"What else do you know?" It's hard to pinpoint a target with a single horse.This is also because Wen Jixue was still young back then, and there were many powerful people in the capital.

Mu Qingyan thought for a while, and said: "Brother's parents will definitely use aliases, so they don't mention all the relatives and friends, and what the elder brother slipped up is very fragmentary... By the way, my birthday is on the second day of February, but the Mu family seems to deliberately cover it up. On the third day of February."

Wen Jixue knew his birthday a long time ago, but she didn't think much about it before. After all, the world is so big that there are more than one or two people born on the second day of February.However, right now, they are guessing about Mu Qingyan's real background, and confirming that his family is originally in the capital. He is suspected of being an official and dignitary, and then contacting this special birthday...

"You..." Wen Jixue's mind flashed, and she couldn't help staring at him carefully: "You were born on the second day of February, and this year is seventeen, so, you were born in the 23rd year of Yuanhe. Back then in Beijing, I remember A family has a child on this day."

While speaking, he was still looking at him, with surprise in his eyes.

"Don't whet your appetite!" Because of Wen Jixue's attitude, Mu Qingyan's calm state of mind also became tense.

"You should know that every year on the second day of February, the emperor would sacrifice to heaven, and all the officials would participate. The spring plowing ceremony was held to pray for good weather. Speaking of which, in those two years, there were frequent disasters in various places, and people's hearts fluctuated. It hadn’t rained since the year. It was raining that day, and it continued to rain for a whole day. After the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was over, Yan Zhihe, a scholar in charge of the Imperial Academy, received an announcement from his family that he had a son. Yan Zhihe’s grandfather Yan Yin is the current emperor's teacher, Yan Yin's eldest daughter is the current Yuan empress."

Mu Qingyan immediately thought of the eldest princess Fuhui, the eldest princess is the first daughter of the Yuan empress and the only surviving child.

As for the Yan family...

After the treason case of the Xue family, a series of follow-up events took place.

If it is said that the Xue family is the head of military generals, then the Yan family is the head of the literary forest, and it is a taboo to have intercourse between civil and military, so these two families have no contact in private.However, following the Xue family's accident, it triggered a change in the structure of the DPRK and China. Everyone wanted to get a share of it, and some people kept their eyes on the Yan family.The Yan family used to be unshakable, with the support of the queen in the palace and the emperor's teacher sitting in the family, but as time passed, the emperor's teacher passed away, the queen was ill for a long time, and the queen had no children!

Therefore, Yan Zhihe took on a hot job: supervising the flood control dams.

This kind of errand is thankless, especially in the midst of chaos, it is more likely to cause a mess.Can the Yan family not know other people's schemes, but they can't refuse, so they can only bite the bullet and accept it.Because he was worried about the quality of the dam, Yan Zhihe stared at it almost day and night, not daring to be careless.Unexpectedly, not long after, the imperial court sent someone to express their condolences. It was also a way of experience. This person had an unusual status, he was the prince of the current dynasty, and his biological mother was only a concubine, but she was the empress dowager's niece and the emperor's cousin.Yan Zhihe took all precautions, but he failed to prevent the prince from having an accident here, and the prince died directly in the river.

Yan Zhihe was suspended for investigation.

At this time, the Empress Yuan passed away, and all the plots came to an abrupt end.

No one is a fool. After the death of the Empress Yuan, the emperor will never touch the queen's natal family for at least two or three years.

Yan Zhihe was also not stupid, so he simply took this opportunity to resign and return home, hoping to avoid chaos.Unexpectedly, there will always be people who refuse to give up, and the Yan family was ambushed and killed on the way home.

Now the Yan family can't say that there are no people, but the original direct branch has no people, and the side branch has shrunk to the original place, only farming and studying, and not becoming an official.The glorious era belonging to the Yan family is over.

"Don't you suspect that I'm from the Yan family?" Mu Qingyan laughed dumbly. If it wasn't for the scary background of the Yan family, he would have believed it.Or not to believe it or not, but to believe it or not.The Yan family is really no less than the Xue family, they are all big troubles.

Wen Jixue said: "Is it true, I don't know, it's just a guess. Although I have seen Yan Zhihe, but only two or three times, the batter is already blurred. Yan Zhihe is the second son. He only had a son in his thirties. Not long after that, something happened to the Xue family. I only found out about the Yan family's affairs later on."

"if……"

Wen Jixue leaned over and lightly smiled against his forehead: "So what if you are really the Yan family? Besides, yes, yes, no, no, it won't change because we know it or not. If you are the Yan family, at least It might just be a little more trouble, as long as we are still together, there is nothing to be afraid of."

Mu Qingyan also laughed: "That's true. I'm going to ask my elder brother directly."

What happened back then, Mu Lin has already remembered, and he may even have heard about it later from Mu's father.

Seeing him holding the cloak, Wen Jixue not only looked out at the sky: "Go now? It's getting dark."

"Let's go now." Mu Qingyan didn't want to wait until tomorrow, otherwise he would have to spend the night in various guesses.

Wen Jixue had no choice but to send him to Qingshan Village.

It was just late in the sky, and there was a lot of smoke in the village, and there was a lot of meat.In the past, only New Year's Day could smell such a rich flavor. Today, it is true that because the Mu family held a full moon banquet, the family who made friends or helped the kitchen brought a lot of leftovers when they left. The dishes for the banquet are not only rich in meat, but also rich in seasonings. , the taste is naturally very fragrant.

As soon as he entered the gate, the dog guarding the gate barked, mainly at Wen Jixue.

Mu Lin heard the sound, stopped the barking of the dog, and asked strangely: "Second brother, why are you here at this time? Come in quickly! Please come in, Mr. Wen." While greeting, he asked: "Second brother, have you eaten yet? The meal is just right, there are a lot of dishes on the table today, and they are all clean and unserved."

"Brother, go and eat, I've already eaten." Mu Qingyan didn't want to be troublesome.

Now that Mu Wan is gone, the family is much busier.Children can't live without people, but men are really bad at coaxing children. Mu Xiu usually follows her as a helper. Mu Xiu is eleven years old. She has a restrained personality and can sit still, but she learned a good hand embroidery from Lian Xin Son.During the meal, Mu Lin greeted the children, and Qing'e also took the opportunity to relax for a while, Mu Lin refused to let Mu Xiu change hands, it was cold, and the meal had to be eaten while it was hot, in his eyes, his siblings were still young.

Mu Qingyan went to sit in the next room, and Mu Wu brought a brazier over.

After eating over there, Mu Lin opened the curtain and came in.

"Second brother, is there something wrong with coming here so late?" Mu Lin could see it, but he couldn't think of anything so important.

"Brother, I'm going to the capital, I can't go if I don't." Mu Qingyan first talked about the affairs in Beijing.

Mu Lin frowned when he heard the words, obviously also aware of the hidden danger of this matter, and asked with some luck: "Can't we ask the Chen family to think of a way to push it away?"

"It's not that easy." Mu Qingyan sighed softly: "Brother, I came here tonight mainly to ask one thing, what happened to our family? When I came to Fenglin, it wasn't because of the disaster, right?"

Mu Lin didn't expect it, with a bit of shock on his face and a mess in his heart.

Mu Qingyan asked again: "My surname is not Mu, I am not a child picked up by the Mu family, nor a child of a relative of the Mu family. My surname is Yan?"

With a stabbing sound, Mu Lin stood up in a panic and took the chair behind him: "You, how do you know?"

While speaking, he quickly swept towards Wen Jixue again, clenching his hands involuntarily.

Mu Qingyan sighed again, and laughed: "Brother still can't hide his words. Now that I know everything, brother, tell me well."

Mu Lin was a little entangled: "At the beginning, Dad said, I won't tell you about the past."

"This moment, that moment." If the original owner was like before, with such poor health, it would not be easy to live a good life.

In fact, Mu Lin had realized it a long time ago. After all, when Mu Qingyan was in poor health, there was only a small Mu family in the whole world. Now that Mu Qingyan has grown up, his footsteps may be left anywhere.It was expected to enter the capital, even if he repeatedly asked, he knew that it could be blocked for a while, but not for a lifetime.Surrounded in a small village, you may be able to live a peaceful life, but that's just living.

"Second brother's surname is indeed Yan. I shouldn't call you second brother. I should call you 'Little Young Master'." Mu Lin knew this, but after ten years of getting used to it, he almost forgot about Mu Qingyan as his younger brother. They were masters and servants.

"That's all in the past, and now we are a family." Mu Qingyan knew very well that he wanted to know the truth just for precaution, not to revive the Yan family.He naturally had more affection for the Mu family than the Yan family he had heard about.

Mu Lin smiled, and didn't bother with the question of address, but talked about the past of the Yan family.

The things about the Yan family are basically the same as what Wen Jixue said, but there are also things that Wen Jixue doesn't know.

"My lord suspects that Empress Yuan's death was not normal, probably not due to illness, but the Yan family couldn't question what the palace said. At that time, due to the aftermath of the Xue family incident, the capital was in chaos, and the Yan family was involved. With the death of the Empress Yuan, the situation became more and more difficult. Later, the Elder Master and the Second Master discussed that the Second Master was your biological father, and they decided to leave the capital and return to their hometown to recuperate. Unexpectedly, someone set up an ambush.

At that time, my mother took me and Xiaowan to my hometown. The atmosphere in the capital changed earlier, and the old man arranged for some old servants to go back to their hometown first.The story of Yufu was told by my father later.Although there were many Yan family members at that time, the ambush people were well prepared, so the Elder Master asked everyone to disperse and break through, and live one by one.My father is the second master's guard, the second master is the main target, and the second wife was shot by the arrow first... The second master asked my father to take the young master away.At that time, the young master was only two years old, and he fled outside for three or four months. He felt that even his hometown was not safe. Later, taking advantage of the disaster in the south, my father and his family pretended to be refugees and came to Fenglin to settle down.

Afterwards, my father went to the Yan family ancestor's place to check, and all the members of the direct branch were gone, and even if there were only side branches left, they were severely suppressed.My father didn't dare to show his face, and after slowly inquiring for a long time, he finally found out what happened after the attack.The eldest master, the second master, and the two wives all died in the ambush, the eldest master, the second young master, and the second young lady also died, the third young master and the eldest grandson were missing, and their life and death are unknown. "

Yan Yin had two sons and two daughters, and the second daughter who married out died at an early age.

The old man of the Yan family has quite a lot of heirs, three sons and two daughters, and they are all descended from the direct line, so Yan Zhihe originally wanted to adopt one of them.The eldest son of the elder has married a wife and has a son, who is the grandson of Yan's family. Although his family is young, he is one year older than Mu Qingyan.In addition, the "Miss" who was not mentioned was already a married woman at the time. Although no accident occurred in the ambush, it would definitely be affected later.

"Second brother's real name is 'Yan Qing'."

Sure enough, the Yan family's affairs are not inferior to the Xue family's troubles at all.
