"Fourth brother doesn't want to bring his younger siblings back. I can tolerate you because of your face. But Brother Chun's surname is Wang. Even if he lives in the Jiang family, he is still your son."

Uncle Wang was extremely active. After losing the hereditary marquis, he completely broke away from his calm demeanor in the officialdom and became active. However, due to lack of talent and learning, his progress in his official career was limited.

He would not miss this opportunity to climb up to Master Yin today no matter what.

Therefore, he desperately encouraged Wang Yixin to exercise his father's "rights" against Wang Duanchun. It is better to say that it is encouragement than persecution.

Not only that, he also asked the other brothers to work hard together, and Wang Yixin once again fell into the Wang family's sea tactics.

He was like a small boat floating on the sea that could be overturned by his loved ones at any time. He was lonely, sentimental, and at the same time very painful and embarrassed.

Why do the people closest to him ignore his wishes and force him to do the things he least wants to do?

"Father……"

Wang Yixin cast all his expectant eyes on the old man who was said to cherish him the most, "I rarely care about Brother Chun. Now I know that he has a famous teacher, so I led my nephews to join him. Who am I?"

People? Even if I am determined to have an official career, I can't do anything to use Brother Chun to cling to Master Yin. I... I don't want her to look down on me, and I don't want the Jiang family to know that I will accomplish nothing if I leave her and leave the Jiang family.

"

The old man looked solemnly for a moment, looked down at Wang Duanhan, who had just been praised by him for his great work, and sighed feebly, "Fourth, I don't want the Wang family to be ruined, do you understand?"

Wang Yixin's thin body swayed, and his clear eyes contained overwhelming anger. If you don't want the Wang family to be ruined, do you have to sacrifice yourself?

Isn't it enough for him to do it for the Wang family?

The hereditary marquis was taken away because of him, but he had allowed his relatives to bully him for so long. He didn't say anything. No matter how hard it was, he endured it silently.

Besides, if he hadn't married the Chiang family, the hereditary marquis would have been gone long ago.

He had been married to the Jiang family for more than ten years. If the brothers had been more competitive during this period, Emperor Qianyuan would not have taken away his title because of his conflict with the Jiang family.

"I regret..." Wang Yixin lowered his head. "I regret it."

Let’s not talk about others, if he had taken advantage of the good opportunity of high school to focus on his official career, like his classmates in the same year, he took charge of the political party and became a feudal official. At this time, his brothers would not have dared to force him like this.

"I will not go looking for Brother Chun. Who of you is willing to go? Who will go?" Wang Yixin looked around the Wang family in the study, with a hint of ridicule on his lips, "For the sake of being a member of the Wang family, I warn

You guys, there is no one behind Brother Chun. If you want to plot against Brother Chun... just prepare to face Wang Zhiyao's wrath."

A trace of happiness surged in Wang Yi's confidence. Wang Zhiyao had made herself look bad, and she would not let go of the Wang family who had repeatedly plotted against Brother Chun.

"The Wang family has lost their hereditary marquis. They have been demoted and fined. If they anger His Majesty again, I don't know what else the Wang family can sacrifice to absolve themselves of sin."

After Wang Yixin handed over to the old man, he turned around and left the study.

"Father, do you see the fourth brother?"

"That's it, boss, let him go."

The old man propped up his cane. His frail body could no longer support it for much longer, and he might pass away at any time. But he did not see the hope of the Wang family establishing a foothold in the capital... The old man did not dare to die, nor did he dare to meet the ancestors of the Wang family at this time.

.

He tolerated the Wang brothers working together to persecute their most beloved son. In addition to being dissatisfied and angry with Wang Yixin, he also wanted Wang Yixin to become smarter and stop being so arrogant and ignorant of the true thoughts of the people around him.

In the old man's opinion, suffering a little hardship can help Wang Yixin understand that he is not an immortal, and not everyone will pamper him, worship him, or praise him.

The hope of the Wang family's re-emergence has always been in the fourth house, and the old man has long seen this clearly.

Now that Wang Duanchun is apprenticed to Mr. Yin, the old man has become even more determined in this idea.

He allowed his other sons to force Wang Yixin again, not because he didn't love him, but because he couldn't be too partial and let the boss and the others hit a wall, and he could also let the boss and the others understand that the leader of the Wang family in the future would be Wang Yixin.

"You have to speak. Brother Chun is originally a descendant of the Wang family."

"If you do something right, I can't stop you. I can tolerate you making things difficult for me, but if you go too far, I will still teach you how to be a eldest son." The old man's eyes fell deeply.

Regarding the eldest son, "You used to be the eldest son, but you are still the eldest son now. I have no intention of abolishing the eldest son and establishing younger ones. As the eldest son, you cannot only focus on the present. You must have a tolerant, stable and friendly mind of brothers and clansmen. You may not be a worldly person."

In my eyes, I am the most outstanding child of the Wang family, but no matter how outstanding the child of the Wang family is, I have to call you my eldest brother."

Uncle Wang's face turned red and white for a while, "I also think about the Wang family."

"As long as the fourth child is a little enterprising, like you, the Wang family will not be deprived of the title..." The old man smiled bitterly, "I failed to teach the fourth child well, and I also trusted your mother too much. I shouldn't...shouldn't just care

Brother Han, ignored Brother Chun. He knew clearly that what the fourth child did was wrong, but because he was my grandson, he indulged his partiality and ignored his direct blood. The reason why the Wang family was deprived of titles was because of me."

If the person who married the Jiang family at that time had been the eldest son, or any man in the Wang family, he would not have been as troubled as Wang Yixin to the point of separation and separation today.

With Jiang Dayong's highly favored father-in-law here, what son-in-law wouldn't treat his wife well and cherish her?

It was precisely because Wang Yixin was not focused on his official career that he valued an official slave concubine more.

The Wang family did not take the silent Jiang Dayong seriously, thinking that the Jiang family would never let go of Wang Yixin... but they were happy to watch Si Fang's jokes and add fuel to the flames...

Retribution, this is retribution.

The old man left the study with a tired look. It would be useless to talk any more. He couldn't stop what was going to happen. He could only hope that God would not completely give up on the Wang family.

When Wang Duanhan saw that his father and grandfather had left, he had something on his mind and naturally he would not stay in the study any longer. He sneaked out of the study while his uncles were stunned.

He went directly around to the back house and entered Aunt Yin's room.

The identity of his biological mother, an official slave, was exposed. Wang Duanhan's reputation was tarnished. Although he still had talent and learning to support him, he was no longer one of the four high-spirited heroes in the capital.

"mother."

After Wang Duanhan came in, he found that his younger sister Wang Zhixuan was surrounding Aunt Yin, and the dressing table was filled with rouge and gouache... Even though Wang Duanhan was Aunt Yin's biological son, he couldn't bear to see the mark on Aunt Yin's face.

"Brother, look at mother."

Wang Zhixuan asked Aunt Yin, who had her back to Wang Duanhan, to turn around. Aunt Yin refused. Wang Zhixuan smiled and straightened Aunt Yin's body. "Can you still see the brand?"

Where can I not see it?

When Wang Duanhan saw the hint given by Wang Zhiyao, he smiled and shook his head, "I can't tell, I can't tell at all."

Although Wang Zhixuan tried her best to downplay the brand mark and put some decals and other makeup on the brand mark under Aunt Yin's eyes, not everyone knows how to appreciate this unique charm.

Wang Duanhan doesn't like it very much. But I have to admit that the brand is much weaker than before. At least Aunt Yin doesn't have to go out with a veil.

Being able to go out also made Aunt Yin feel more open-minded. Wang Duanhan never wanted Aunt Yin to lose the courage to live.

"Really? Brother Han didn't lie to me?"

"Mom, how could my son lie to you?" Wang Duanhan nodded affirmatively, and Aunt Yin cried with joy in front of the mirror. Wang Duanhan was even more resentful of Jiang's ruthlessness, which ruined Aunt Yin's beauty.

Wang Duanhan comforted Aunt Yin and winked at Wang Zhixuan, and the two went out together to whisper.

Aunt Yin looked left and right in front of the mirror, comforting herself that she looked much better than before. She wiped the mark on her face over and over again with her fingers, as if one more wipe would make the mark disappear. The gentle and gentle Aunt Yin's eyes were now

Filled with unforgettable hatred, "Jiang Yuchan. I won't let you go, I won't."

Appearance is the most important thing for a woman, especially for someone like Aunt Yin who is a concubine.

Even if she has a good temperament, she can't please Wang Yixin without a pretty face.

Aunt Yin stared at herself in the mirror. Don't let me catch the chance. I will definitely repay you the insult I received today.

…

"What? He actually became the master of the Hanlin Academy?"

"Well, my father doesn't talk nonsense. I heard that Wang Zhiyao is also in the Hanlin Academy today. Judging from my father's appearance... maybe our seventh sister has given him a hard time."

"What did father say?"

"The uncles want my father to take this opportunity to meet Mr. Yin." Wang Duanhan mocked his uncle's whims, "I don't think my father will embarrass himself in front of the seventh sister no matter what. Even if the Wang family ancestors come back from the dead, he will not go back."

Wang Zhixuan nodded slightly after hearing this. Her brother did not lose his mind, "Did your brother say anything to your father?"

"I don't have the right to interrupt in the study."

"That's good." Wang Zhixuan said: "Don't let your father go looking for Jiang or Wang Zhiyao. Instead, we have to pretend not to care and pretend to be happy for Wang Duanchun. My father has become a little inappropriate recently. Maybe he was taken advantage of by the seventh sister.

What kind of magic trick was used to impress him... If the seventh sister had such a hot temper and words, and showed no mercy to her father, she would have been reduced to an outcast of the family a long time ago."

"She has become different from before." Wang Duanhan nodded and agreed with Wang Zhixuan, "I can also see that my father is slowly caring about her. Whether it is resentment or whatever, he has her in his eyes."

"That's right, so we have to appear more sensible and considerate of our father. Gradually, our father will naturally be like before and only have us brothers and sisters in his heart."

Even if Wang's translation letter is not of much use, Wang Zhixuan is not prepared to give it to Wang Zhiyao. The useless thing is also hers, and Wang Zhiyao has no intention of getting involved with it.

Moreover, Wang Yixin is still Wang Zhixuan's supporter at this stage. Being favored by Wang Yixin will make Wang Zhiyao jealous... Even if Wang Zhiyao's body has been taken over by a wild ghost, the thoughts remaining in the body will still affect the 'wild ghost'.

When it comes to being considerate and being a filial daughter who is attached to her father, Wang Zhixuan considers herself a step ahead of Wang Zhiyao.

"But I think she doesn't seem to care about her father's regard. She has given up on him a long time ago..." Wang Duanhan said softly, "My little sister doesn't have to compete with her on this. The Jiang family is the foundation of their mother and son. My father also said that the Jiang family

It won’t last long, but we can’t afford to wait now.”

There was a hint of anger on Wang Zhixuan's pretty face. How could Wang Zhiyao give up on Wang Yixin? "Brother, you are wrong. Only her father can seriously hurt her."

Wang Zhiyao is too soft-hearted but has the unique innocence of the Chiang family, and her temperament follows the Chiang family. The more she can't get, the more she wants it.

The Jiang family and their daughter had harmed her like this, how could Wang Zhixuan not take revenge?

"Let's not talk about it for now, what is brother's plan?" Wang Zhixuan has her own plans for the future. If Wang Duanhan can get six yuan in high school, it will be a help to her. She said sarcastically: "With his elm head, he can't study.

What qualifications does an incompetent loser have to be a disciple of Lord Yin? The Jiang family is quite powerful."

"I don't think it's necessarily the Jiang family's ability."

"Oh?" Wang Zhixuan's heart moved. The Jiang family doesn't have such a big reputation. So who could it be? Gu Sanshao suddenly popped into her mind...

"Brother also wants to become a disciple of Lord Yin?"

"Well, I think I'm more qualified than him."

"I'll come up with a solution. Let's not start with my father. The harder the uncles push my father, the more he will persist. Wang Duanchun trusts us very much. It is impossible for the Jiang family to watch him all day long. There will always be a chance."

"Heroes think alike."

Wang Duanhan and Wang Zhixuan looked at each other and smiled. When they were proud, they were still very kind to Wang Duanchun. In addition to laughing at Jiang's stupidity and having his legitimate son endorse the concubine's shoes, they had been waiting for today. Wang Duanchun stabbed Jiang in the back!

…

Since he became a disciple, Wang Duanchun was arranged by Master Yin to study in the Imperial College. Only the six important officials of the Imperial Academy could send their close nephews to the Imperial College.

Compared with Taishan Academy, the interpersonal relationships in the Imperial College are more complicated. Except for the best students from poor families, most of the people who can enter the Imperial College and serve as prisoners are the children of officials.

Although Wang Duanchun is a little naive, his background is really strong. In addition to the Marquis of Xining, he is also a disciple of Master Yin. Several of his senior brothers are the leaders of the younger generation, so even if some people can't stand him. These ancient people

The second-generation officials were not so stupid as to make enemies of Wang Duanchun without probing him.

He never caused trouble and did not want to rely on his strong background to become the boss. He concentrated on studying hard, so his life in the Imperial College was relatively peaceful.

In the Imperial College, rumors spread that Wang Duanchun was being protected by Third Young Master Gu. As a result, no one dared to provoke Wang Duanchun easily.

If you offend Mr. Yin, you can rely on your father to explain it, but if you offend Mr. Gu... that person will give no face to anyone.

Many people did not believe this news. After all, Gu Sanshao's temperament was completely opposite to Wang Duanchun's.

But once they saw Gu Sanshao waiting for Wang Duanchun outside the Imperial College, they confirmed that the news was unintentional.

Wang Duanchun became the most special person in the Imperial College.

The Imperial Academy Jiujiu was not very pleasing to him at first, but Wang Duanchun impressed him with his diligence and hard work. The Imperial Academy Jiujiu was also obtained through hard study. He was very average in talent and liked students who worked hard the most.

Wang Duanchun was an upright and simple man, and he did not cause trouble based on his status. The Imperial Academy Jijiu seemed to have seen himself in his youth, and therefore he was particularly partial to him.

When Gu Sanshao asked Wang Duanchun to be a teacher in the Imperial Academy, he knew that they had the same temperament. Later, Gu Sanshao found a better opportunity, so he gave up his original idea.

Yin Boyi is a little smarter than Imperial College Jijiu. If he teaches Wang Duanchun, Wang Zhiyao may have less to worry about.

…

"Brother Chun."

"ah."

Wang Duanchun was returning to Jiang's house after class at the Imperial Academy. He was still thinking about the lecture given by Teacher Cai just now. When he heard someone calling him, he looked up and said, "Fifth sister."

Wang Zhixuan looked at Wang Duanchun from top to bottom. His expression was a little calmer than before, and the inferiority complex between his brows was much less. It seemed that Wang Zhiyao had put a lot of thought into him. She said with a smile: "I heard that Brother Chun got a famous teacher, so I specially

Come to congratulate you."

"nothing."

Wang Duanchun lowered his head shyly. The fifth sister was so well-born and good at dressing up. He had no feelings about personal relationships between men and women. Recently, because he often spent time with his cousins, he felt a little nostalgic and followed Gu Sanshao.

Around him, he saw too many ladies fawning over Third Young Master Gu... but none of those ladies had the good temperament of the fifth sister.

The corners of Wang Zhixuan's mouth curled up, and the smile on her beautiful face became brighter and brighter. She was angry, happy, angry, and smiling, all in different styles.

She has an excellent grasp of all kinds of styles and thoughtfulness, and is best at pretending to look good in front of certain people.

In front of Wang Yixin, she was a cute and caring daughter. In front of the fourth prince, she was a proud and arrogant concubine who was mistreated by her aunt. In front of Wang Duanchun... she was an elder brother who cared about her brother but was inaccessible due to her status as a concubine.

My brother's good sister.

In short, Wang Zhixuan is a girl with a thousand faces.

"Brother Chun, congratulations."

Wang Duanhan stood next to Wang Zhixuan with a happy smile, "After hearing about such good things, my sister and I stayed up all night. My sister prepared some snacks you like to eat for you."

Wang Duanchun took the basket from Wang Zhixuan's hand and said, "Sister Xuan."

"Brother Chun also knows that it is not convenient for us to go to the Hou Mansion to find you, so he came to the Imperial College to look for you. Have we caused you any trouble?"

"No." Wang Duanchun shook his head, and then said: "But please don't come again. I'm afraid that others will see it and make Yao'er unhappy."

"Seventh sister is not a stingy person. You are my brother, and you are still afraid that I will compete with her?" Wang Zhixuan smiled brightly and said generously: "My brother and I have prepared a banquet to celebrate, and I hope that Brother Chun will show his respect. I also

I want to hear how Brother Chun is doing, things have been so big lately... I don't even dare to talk to you."

Wang Duanchun nodded and said, "Let my brother spend the money."

"It's such a small thing, it's not worth mentioning."

Wang Duanhan also showed perfect demeanor and invited Wang Duanchun to a wine shop. The three brothers and sisters talked and laughed. With Wang Zhixuan nearby, they made jokes and their relationship seemed very close.

Before entering the restaurant, Wang Duanchun accidentally met Gu Sanshao who was returning to the palace from the capital's yamen.

Gu Tianze reined in the reins, and his cold and arrogant eyes fell on Wang Duanchun. Wang Duanchun seemed to have been caught doing something bad, his face turned red, "I...I..."

Wang Zhixuan looked at the handsome young man on horseback who was full of heroic spirit and arrogance, and there was a slight fluctuation in his heart. He is the Third Young Master Gu? Unlike the fourth prince who is restrained and forbearing, he is like the blazing sun. Born to be rich and noble, he is the most suitable, "

Brother Chun, who is he?"

"He..." Wang Duanchun lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

"Master Gu." Wang Duanhan had seen Gu Tianze from a distance and naturally recognized him. He cupped his hands and said, "I am..."

Wang Zhixuan smiled and saluted, "Gu..."

"Pah." Gu Tianze whipped his whip directly at Wang Zhixuan's stunning face, "Who do you think you are, you dare to get close to me?"

Although Wang Zhixuan hid quickly, she was still slightly swept by the whip, and a red mark remained between her eyebrows. Her beautiful appearance had always been her guard of honor, but Gu Tianze looked at her as if she was looking at the garbage on the ground.

Gu Tianze gave Wang Zhixuan unprecedented humiliation and bit his lip: "Master Gu, I am also a young lady from an official family."

"Do you believe that I will have your father dismissed from office tomorrow?"

Gu Tianze threw the riding crop to the ground in disgust, "I don't want dirty things."

After taking a deep look at Wang Duanchun, Gu Tianze rode away.

Wang Zhixuan wished she could strangle Gu Tianze to death. It was not so insulting. The riding crop on the ground seemed to be mocking her for being sentimental.

"Xuan...forget it, I won't go drinking."

"Brother Chun, do you dislike me too?"

"no……"

Wang Duanchun rubbed his head irritably. He had his father on one side and his mother on the other. What should he do? How to choose?

At this time, he envied Wang Zhiyao's "ruthlessness". If he was more ruthless, wouldn't he be so embarrassed?

"Brother Chun has met a famous teacher. I'm a little envious. I also have some difficulties in my studies. I wonder if I can ask my brother's teacher for advice?" Wang Duanhan took advantage of Wang Duanchun's confusion and took the initiative to ask: "Isn't it convenient to respect your teacher?"

Wang Zhixuan said from the side, "The Wang family has fallen into this bad situation today. Brothers should work together to overcome the difficulties. One person alone cannot make a family. Brother Chun, I was insulted by Master Gu. Isn't it because the Wang family is not strong enough? Father often teaches us

, Brothers are of the same mind, and their sharpness can cut through metal."

"If it's just a few questions, I can ask the teacher."

"I wonder if you can allow me to ask for advice in person?"

"..."

Wang Duanchun rarely had the opportunity to do anything for Wang Duanhan. He had always looked up to Wang Duanhan. Today, his brother asked for help. He felt a little proud in his heart. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said: "Then... you come with me to the teacher's house."

"Okay, I will write out all the problems tomorrow."

"Um."

Wang Duanchun didn't go in for a drink to celebrate, and returned to the Xining Marquis Mansion alone. He didn't dare to tell Wang Zhiyao what happened today, and he only hoped that Mr. Gu wouldn't say it either.

…

In the palace, Gu Tianze smashed the tea cup in his hand, "Trash, idiot!"

If he hadn't taken into account that he was Wang Zhiyao's brother, he would have taught him a lesson long ago, "I have never seen such a stupid person. He is still alive. God really loves him!"

"Master..."

"Huh." Gu Tianze took a deep breath and said slowly: "Fortunately, Master Yin is his master and will always discipline him."

Some things are really difficult for outsiders who have nothing to do with them. Once Gu Tianze beats Wang Duanchun, Wang Zhiyao can't blame him? Hate him?

Wang Zhiyao cares about her brother very much.

…

The next day, Wang Duanchun walked into Yin Boyi's study and said, "Teacher."

"Well, is there something wrong with Chun'er?"

No matter what the reason was, since Yin Boyi accepted Wang Duanchun, he would treat him as a disciple. He took great pains to arrange for Wang Duanchun and also let Wang Duanchun meet the young master of the Yin family, so that Wang Duanchun could freely enter and leave the Imperial Academy.

Yin Mansion.

"I...my brother is outside the Yin Mansion."

"Um?"

Yin Boyi frowned. Wang Duanchun felt great pressure, his scalp was numb, and his face seemed to have a fever. "He has a few questions to ask you..."

"I think he wants to replace you and make me his master." Yin Boyi said in a calm voice, "Chun'er, are you willing to give him your best?"

"No, I don't want to."

"Then you shouldn't come to me today."

Yin Boyi raised his hand and slapped Wang Duanchun twice, "Do you think I will accept a disciple casually? Do you think my Yin family is so easy to get into? Or do you want outsiders to say that I am blind and deaf for accepting a disciple who doesn't know how to make progress?

Confused idiot?"

"Teacher...I..."

"I know you want to show your ability in front of him. You want to be a good brother and brother, but have you ever thought that you have used your only strength - kindness in the wrong place? Mr. Dong Guo's

Don’t you know the story? You are willing to be stepped on by him and climb up, but I am not willing to accept a fool as my apprentice!"

"Teacher, please don't abandon me." Wang Duanchun knelt in front of Yin Boyi, "I...I was wrong."

"Wrong? Do you still have mistakes? Do you think you should respect your master if you let the son of an official slave come to my Yin family? Since your father can't teach you well and has brought you up like this, I will teach you again.

Without you, my wisdom in this life would have been ruined by you."

Yin Boyi took a deep breath and said, "You don't have to go to the Imperial Academy to study recently. I will help you ask for leave with Jijiu. I can see that you don't have academic problems, your head is a mess... I think

It doesn’t make sense, even if you study every day, you are still an idiot, a wimp who is being used and laughed at!”

"Then I..."

"You just stay in my house."

Yin Boyi made up his mind to correct Wang Duanchun's thinking. He needed to cultivate his moral character after being in the limelight recently. It was no big deal, so he might as well take this opportunity to teach Wang Duanchun well.

The most taboo thing after being in the limelight is not knowing how to hold back... In official circles, moderation is king.

Moreover, he taught Wang Duanchun well and gave Gu Sanshao face, which would be good for him to join the cabinet in the future. Yin Boyi could see that Gu Sanshao would always be favored by the emperor, and Gu Sanshao understood how to be loved and trusted by the emperor.

.

As for whether the future prince can accommodate Gu Sanshao, when that time comes, he can slowly choose to think about it.

Seeing how much the emperor trusts Third Young Master Gu, the emperor will leave behind complete preparations.

Emperor Qianyuan was not an ordinary emperor. Even though Yin Boyi was proficient in the ways of being an official, he still did not dare to be careless in front of Emperor Qianyuan.

Wang Duanchun said angrily: "My mother will be worried about me..."

"Do you still have a mother? Don't you only have a father?"

"Master." Wang Duanchun was even more embarrassed, and Yin Boyi said: "I will send someone to send a letter to the Marquis of Xining, saying that you will concentrate on preparing for the exam in my house."

Yin Boyi said to the entourage outside the study: "Go and send a message to the person at the door. The son of an official slave is not worthy of entering my house."

As Wang Yixin's immediate boss, Yin Boyi still needs to be afraid of a small subordinate?

What happened to Xiao Sanyuan?

In front of him, Wang Duanhan's greatest achievement was not worth mentioning at all.
Chapter completed!
