Chapter 599: Farewell with Wine (Part 1)
This sounds reasonable, but when you think about it carefully, it makes absolutely no sense!
"You...are really a hidden talent..."
Princess Qinyang thought for a long time and didn't know how to describe her shock at the moment.
"In a place like the capital, can you still hide such a big secret?!"
Ever since Ye Chutang returned to Beijing, she has been involved in numerous lawsuits. So many people are watching her, inside and outside!
She actually raised such an eagle openly right under the eyes of these people!
Even Princess Qinyang had come to the Ye Mansion so many times and had never discovered anything unusual. If Ye Chutang hadn't taken the initiative to call her out this time, she would probably never have known about this.
Ye Chutang didn't think much of it and gave a perfect answer: "Because it's not usually here."
"ah?"
"If it's not busy, it will be outside most of the time. Even if it flies back, it will just hover in the air and won't land."
Eagles are extremely vigilant and will never descend or make contact unless they have complete trust in the other party.
"Besides... I'm usually very busy and often forget to feed it." Ye Chutang rarely felt a little embarrassed. "Over time, it got used to looking for food outside."
Princess Qinyang: "..."
You don't feed it, and you still say it's yours?
Will it be there whenever you need it?
Why didn't she keep one!
Princess Qinyang was in a very complicated mood, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Ye Chutang also changed slightly.
"So, it still follows you wholeheartedly?"
Ye Chutang nodded as a matter of course, "I was the one who saved its parents, including it."
It was a coincidence. At first she just wanted to find some game to fill the stomachs of Ayan, Afeng and Xiaowu, but she happened to come across an eagle that was wounded by an arrow.
She then found the nest and saw several hungry young eagles.
“How many!?”
Princess Qinyang widened her eyes.
"So, you have more than one?"
Ye Chutang counted and nodded.
Since it didn’t cost much money anyway, she just kept them all.
Princess Qinyang looked at him dimly, "...Yes, with the way you raise them, you can raise a hundred more...Your luck is incredible."
Ye Chutang didn't say that, in fact, she had already planned to take the whole family away and deal with them, but in the end, for some reason, looking at the few cats huddled together, her heart suddenly softened and she gave up.
Later, she reflected on it and felt that at that moment, she must have felt the same way...
As for what happens next, just let nature take its course.
Princess Qinyang sighed after hearing this. "Anyway, it's a good thing to find out the situation over there as soon as possible. Chutang, what do you think I should do in the next period of time? Should I continue to pretend that I know nothing?"
She looked at Ye Chutang for help, all her former willfulness and pride had disappeared, leaving only worry.
Ye Chutang was silent for a moment, then shook his head.
"This matter should not be made public for the time being, but there is one person who must know."
"I'll accompany you to Dingbei Marquis Mansion again."
…
Outside the capital, a dilapidated pavilion.
The night gradually faded away and the sky gradually brightened.
The two men sat opposite each other in the pavilion, and on the broken stone table lay two empty jugs of wine.
Chen Yanchuan looked towards the distant horizon, with a faint smell of alcohol around him, but his voice was clear and calm.
"I have said everything I need to say. As for which path you want to take...it's up to you to choose."
Xie Anbai, who was sitting opposite him, lowered his head slightly, motionless like a sculpture.
He has maintained this posture for a long time.
Finally, after hearing Shen Yanchuan's words, he slowly raised his head.
If there were other people here, they would be shocked to see his appearance at this moment.
The second young master Xie, who used to be so dashing and charming, now seemed like a completely different person, with untidy beard and haggard face.
Where is the handsome and free-spirited nobleman he once was?
Ever since Xie Pei's death, Xie Anbai has been in a daze and unable to accept it. In addition, Xie Anjun targeted him everywhere, making him extremely uncomfortable every moment in the Xie family. He simply chose to leave.
——If I am not welcome here, there are other places that will welcome me!
Even if he left the Xie family, he could still survive!
But Xie Anbai didn't expect that he would be caught up by Shen Yanchuan not long after leaving the city.
When he came, Shen Yanchuan also brought two pots of wine.
So the two of them drank in the pavilion from midnight until dawn.
And Shen Yanchuan also told Xie Anbai everything he had found out before.
Xie Anbai's lips were cracked and he slowly moved his lips.
"…So, he was the one who killed my father?"
He spoke slowly and softly, yet with great difficulty.
The words that Shen Yanchuan said contained too much information. He went from being incredulous at first, to being shocked later, and now to being numb and angry...
Endless anger turned into a breath in his chest, making him feel suffocated to the extreme!
Chen Yanchuan paused, "I just told you what I found out. I'm not sure if it was him yet."
Xie Anbai suddenly sneered.
"If it's not him, who else could it be!? If he hadn't committed such a heinous crime, how could my father--"
He laughed louder and louder, his eyes filled with despair and anger.
"How dare he do this...How could he do this!?"
Bang--!
He slammed the wine jug to the ground, but his body couldn't help shaking.
Over the years, he knew that his father favored his eldest brother, and he also knew that he was unpopular and unlovable, so he was uneducated and had a bad reputation. He thought that this would satisfy everyone, but... it still didn't work!
He doesn't understand, he really doesn't understand.
They have the same blood flowing in their bodies, so why is their father so partial to them? And the one who got everything, not only has no gratitude at all, but also wants to drain their marrow and suck their blood, forcing all of them into a desperate situation! ?
My father was even willing to die for that person! In exchange for his peace!
Shen Yanchuan said: “He may not only do this for Xie Anjun, but also for the entire Xie family.”
The expression on Xie An's pale face gradually disappeared.
Of course he knows.
But if Xie Anjun had not been so audacious and made such a big mistake, how could the Xie family have come to this point?
"You just said that the person he recommended was called Zheng Baosu?"
"Um."
"Is he doing Fan Chengzhuo a favor? I don't know when he became so close to that guy named Fan..."
Shen Yanchuan was silent for a long time before he said, "He can't practice martial arts, but it would be good if he could place his own people in the army."
Xie's army always has to give face.
Xie Anbai sneered coldly as if he had heard something funny. "He can't even understand a military book, but he has such a long hand! Does he really think that he can build connections in the army by finding someone who knows how to fight? "
Chen Yanchuan suddenly smiled.
"Do you think that Zheng Baosu is really brave?"
