Since Yue Fuguang is at least half an ancient person, and he wasn't in the mansion, he must have been born to a concubine outside the mansion, which isn't hard to guess.
[He was an illegitimate son. His birth mother was from a bad family and was the descendant of a disgraced official. Yu Boyuan did not dare to bring them back to the Yu family. So Yu Huaijian was already fifteen years old and had never entered the Yu family.]
He both longed for and resented his family. On one hand, he yearned to be recognized as a member of the Yu family, while on the other hand, he harbored deep resentment towards his brothers who could openly and honestly be considered sons of the Yu family.
For a moment, Yu Boyuan's face went blank. Jian'er was always a well-behaved and sensible son in front of him, and he was always full of pride when talking about the Yu family.
He was very kind to his brothers, even though they had never met, he was sure that the boy would get along well with them.
How could you harbor resentment towards your family?
"How did he ruin the second wife's life?"
[This Yu Huaijian has rather peculiar hobbies; he likes running brothels. Judging by the timeline, he'll likely use the money he got from Yu Boyuan this year to open his first brothel.]
"It's not surprising that someone likes doing business, but why would anyone like running a brothel? Uncle Yuan is quite wealthy; the money he gives to one of his mistresses is enough for him to run a brothel!"
Yue Fuguang couldn't help but give Yu Boyuan a piece of her mind, and her gaze towards him was also somewhat disdainful.
In this era, polygamy was the norm, and although Yue Fuguang disapproved of it, she respected it, since she couldn't change it anyway.
But if someone has several women at home, and still goes out to have affairs, and then keeps them as mistresses to have children with, that's going too far.
The handkerchief in Yu Boyuan's wife Cheng's hand was almost crumpled to pieces.
The atmosphere at the adults' table was a bit off, and the children's tables also sensed it. Some people, though unaware of what was happening, knew to restrain themselves, thanks to their keen senses.
Yue Fuguang also pretended to be curious and looked up at her grandparents. Seeing that the two of them still had warm expressions, she continued to eat with her head down.
[Because his birth mother, Huang Dongmei, was a virtuous official who was born in a brothel, and was raised by Yu Boyuan after he redeemed her.]
Huang Dongmei didn't know many people in Beijing; all her acquaintances were in the brothel.
So even after she was financially secure, she maintained contact with the other women in the brothel. Yu Huaijian was naturally familiar with these women.
Therefore, his fondness for running brothels was somewhat influenced by his mother's and his concubines' professions.
"So far, I haven't seen how bad Yu Huaijian is. As for his resentment towards his family, that's only human nature."
Huang Dongmei is still willing to keep in touch with her old friends; she's not the kind of person who forgets her friends once she becomes successful.
Although I don't like this mother and son, I really can't understand why Yu Huaijian would later harm his family.
Later, Yu Boyuan found out that Yu Huaijian was running a brothel. He beat his son and forced him to close it down.
As the saying goes, "For every policy from above, there's a countermeasure from below." Since he couldn't operate openly, he secretly set up several backdoors.
"So persistent? Isn't this ambition misplaced?"
The master forgot his age; he was in his rebellious phase, and he liked it. The more his father forbade him to do something, the more he wanted to do it.
It was around this time that he met some people, and from then on, he embarked on a different path.
"Who is it?"
[Does Master still remember 'Drunken Rakshasa'? The woman who set traps for Caibing and Huoshui.]
"I remember, Yu Huaijian met this woman?"
Yes, Yu Huaijian had seen her at Cangchunlou before he opened his first brothel. At that time, Zui Luosha was still a 'fallen girl'.
She was a free woman, but was temporarily registered under the name of Cangchunlou. She became famous because of the two men, Caibing and Huoshui, fighting over the same woman.
Because of the instructions from the Huo and Cai families, she gained fame, but her life on the surface was not easy.
Yu Huaijian even tried to recruit her to his brothel, but she refused.
Yu Chongshan's eyes flashed. This drunken demon had been captured by Cai Xian and Huo Ying before the new year, but unfortunately she still managed to escape.
According to the two people, the two who came to rescue her were dressed in black and masked, and were highly skilled in martial arts. However, judging from their actions, they did not seem to be completely like people from the martial arts world.
It is known that the Drunken Rakshasa, Black Widow, and Poison Prince are collectively known as the Three Eccentrics of the Martial World. As for what makes them eccentric, no one knows, but all three are equally formidable figures.
"This Drunken Rakshasa is hiding in a brothel, so he must be on a mission, right? By the way, Cai Xian listened to my advice and locked Cai Bing at home, not allowing him to go out."
"Now that the troublemaker in the Huo family has no rivals, are we indirectly sabotaging her mission?"
"That's right. I didn't explain it to the master in detail last time. Their plan against the two of them is actually a series of interconnected steps. As long as the two of them go, at least one of them will definitely get into trouble."
As for who will get into trouble, that's all up to fate. The point is that the Cai and Huo families will inevitably clash.
This is because he successfully completed the "Drunken Rakshasa" mission in the original historical online world, but was targeted by two factions and had a hard time, so he didn't leave.
Yu Huaijian offered high salaries to poach him, but he wouldn't leave.
"Does this mean she had to stay there because of a mission?"
[It should be. But later, for some reason, she contacted Yu Huaijian, who ran a brothel, and even introduced him to several male prostitutes and girls.]
"Are there problems with these people?"
Yes, these people included not only the Dayan people, but also the Nanzhao, Nanyue, Beili, Xiqiang, and Dongyi people.
Yue Fuguang almost burst out laughing. "He's making this look like a 'United Nations,' with such a mixed bag of people. Does he even know that?"
The brothers Yu Chongshan and Yu Chongyan both frowned. As people in officialdom, they were naturally not lacking in political sensitivity.
I always felt that these people were not simple, and the master behind Drunken Rakshasa was even more so.
Cai Xian and Huo Ying initially suspected that the person behind this was some kind of force within the Dayan Kingdom.
Now it's really hard to say whether that person was a member of the Dayan people.
Is he targeting only Dayan or the six kingdoms?
Yu Chongshan was startled by his own guess. Even their emperor wouldn't dare to use tricks to trip up the high-ranking officials of the other five countries at the same time, and launch attacks on multiple fronts.
At most, the spies sent out are just to gather information and sow discord if they have the chance, but they are not specifically targeting any particular faction.
At first, they certainly didn't know. Those people all had legitimate Dayan household registrations, but they were all of low social status, so it wasn't difficult to obtain them.
Later, he discovered the difference between these people and was recruited by the Drunken Rakshasa, where he helped them with many things.
When Dayan City fell, Yu Huaijian led a group of men into the Yu residence, killing everyone they saw and looting all their valuables.
In the end, only Yu Jinan's wife and their two children, a son and a daughter, escaped from the Yu family.
Yu Chongshan paused for a moment. His third son, Ji Nan, had just gotten married last year, and his third daughter-in-law was still not pregnant. If you count the time, his future grandchildren would be no more than seven or eight years old when the Dayan Kingdom was destroyed.
Orphans and widows were born in a chaotic world... Yu Chongyan closed his eyes. In fact, his family was not much better off than his elder brother's family!
