"The Duke is back, the Duke is back!" When Gong Pan escorted Zu An and Yu Yanluo back to the Duke's Mansion, the maids and servants in the mansion were first stunned, and then extremely shocked.
Then they were so excited that they rushed around the house to tell each other, and the news of Jian Yanyou's return spread instantly.
Jian Taiding, who was recovering from his injuries in the bedroom, heard the commotion outside and felt angry. He hurriedly called his confidant outside the door to come in: "Who is so unruly and yelling outside?"
The guard replied: "Back to the Second Master, the maids and maids in the house seem to be upset because of something. I will go and check now."
At this time, someone else hurried over, shouting as they ran: "Second Master, Second Master is not good!"
Hearing his words, Jian Taiding's face suddenly darkened: "You're an unlucky guy who can't speak."
Only then did the man realize the slip of the tongue, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly knelt on the ground to apologize, and at the same time kept slapping his own ears.
Listening to the other party's slap, Jian Taiding's expression softened slightly: "Okay, what happened to make you so panicked?"
"The elder...is back!" the subordinate said tremblingly.
Jian Taiding's face turned cold: "You are so tired of living today that you dare to make such a joke with me?"
"I don't dare," the guard hurriedly explained, "Gong Pan has escorted the eldest master back, and Mrs. Yu is also accompanying him. Many people in the mansion have seen it, so the maids and servants in the mansion are cheering like this."
"What!" Jian Taiding felt a burst of energy and blood boiling, and the wound on his body burst open again, and blood spurted out, instantly dyeing the bandage on his body red.
His whole body felt like the world was spinning, and he fell backwards in a flash.
Fortunately, his personal bodyguards saw the opportunity quickly and hurriedly supported him so that he did not fall to the ground. Several people were so panicked that they went to find a doctor while sending vitality to him to seal the bleeding.
After all, Jian Taiding was a master. After regaining his breath, he opened his eyes slightly, but his face was much paler than usual: "Why didn't you say such an important thing earlier!"
After he kicked the guard who came to report the news, he hurriedly walked out. Although he was seriously injured at this time, it could not suppress the doubts and curiosity in his heart.
How could that person come back!
The kicked guard vomited blood several times. No matter how injured Jian Taiding was, he was still a master. The force of his kick in anger was not small.
He felt aggrieved. Just now I hurriedly said it, but you obviously didn't let me say it.
Looking at Jian Taiding's back as he left, he couldn't help but feel a trace of resentment in his eyes.
On the other side, Jian Taiding was speeding along under the escort of his entourage. Not long after, he saw a bunch of maids and servants talking eagerly around a few people from a distance.
Thinking of the report just made by his men, he shouted angrily: "Who dares to pretend to be my eldest brother?"
He was still showing off his power on weekdays, but when he heard his violent shouting, the maids and servants were frightened and hurriedly dispersed.
This time, several people inside were revealed, and Jian Taiding's voice suddenly stopped as he saw their appearance clearly.
The whole person suddenly froze in place.
At that moment, there was a bang in his mind, and he began to doubt life.
Who am I, where am I, what do I do?
The other party is really his big brother!
In an instant, regret, fear, shock, and all kinds of emotions rushed into his heart, causing his whole body to shut down.
"My good second brother, you didn't expect to see me, did you?" Zu An looked at him and said with a pun.
He and Yu Yanluo had simulated today's scene many times in the past few days, so it was really lifelike in the performance.
Jian Taiding's expression changed as expected, because he knew what happened to Jian Yanyou, and his words seemed to be a declaration of revenge.
I did something like that to my elder brother, and of course he would never forgive me.
Thinking that the other party's cultivation was far superior to his own, he couldn't help but tremble all over.
At this moment, a steady voice came from the side: "That's nonsense, you can't be the Duke!"
Everyone looked around and saw a neatly dressed old man standing not far away with a few followers, looking coldly in the direction of Zu An.
Everyone else in the venue was in an uproar because the person coming was the butler of the Duke's Mansion, Uncle Ming!
He is the Duke's right-hand man and helps the Duke handle various matters inside and outside the palace. He is really highly respected and can be said to be the person who knows the Duke best.
Even he said that this person was a fake, so everyone in the room subconsciously believed it, and they all moved away from Zu An, and looked at him with wary eyes.
Zu An frowned slightly: "Uncle Ming, how long has it been and you don't even recognize me?"
Uncle Ming looked him up and down: "You do pretend to be very similar to the Duke, but you have the biggest flaw, and that is your cultivation. The Duke has a strength comparable to that of the Grand Master, although you are not weak , but it is far from the county official."
Jian Taiding finally came to his senses at this time. Yes, he knew best what happened to Jian Yanyou, and how could he appear here.
This disgusting counterfeit!
So he also echoed: "Yes, come here, arrest this monster who doesn't know where he came from!"
"yes!"
His confidant guards immediately stepped out and rushed towards the opponent.
Seeing this, Gong Pan quickly drew his sword out of its sheath and guarded Zu An vigilantly.
The guards knew Gong Pan, and there was a stalemate for a while.
At this time, Zu An glanced at Jian Taiding meaningfully: "Second brother, are you trying to kill people and silence them?"
Knowing that the other party was fake, Jian Taiding almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he heard the other party's name: "Huh, who is your second brother? You are not good at pretending to be someone else, but you have to pretend to be my eldest brother. First of all, your cultivation is wrong." superior."
At this time Gong Pan spoke: "Because the Duke was seriously injured, his cultivation level has temporarily declined."
Hearing this, those around him suddenly realized.
The Duke of Yunzhong disappeared before, and everyone was curious about what happened to him. Many people speculated that he might be seriously injured and recuperating somewhere.
But as time passed and he never appeared, everyone became more inclined to believe that he was dead.
Now that they heard him say this, everyone was awakened to their initial feelings.
"How could my eldest brother be injured with his astonishing and thorough cultivation? Gong Pan, where on earth did you get such a fake? You are so cruel!" Jian Taiding scolded angrily.
Zu An snorted: "Why I got hurt, this second brother should know best."
Jian Taiding's breath was suffocated, and he was a little surprised for a moment, because the look and temperament of the man in front of him was exactly the same as his elder brother, and he also knew what he had done. Could it be that he was really his elder brother?
But how is this possible? I personally killed him...
It can't be a ghost, right?
The uninformed guards and maids around looked at each other, because the meaning of Zu An's words just now was that the second master had done something to the eldest master?
At this time, Uncle Ming spoke again: "This matter is too strange. You can't just take whatever you say. Let's do this. I have been with the Duke for these years and I think I know him quite well. Let me ask some questions to verify it."
Just give it a try."
Jian Taiding's eyes lit up: "Yes, Uncle Ming is recognized as the person who knows my eldest brother best in the house. You will definitely be able to tell the truth from the lies if you keep showing up."
Others also nodded, obviously everyone was quite convinced of Uncle Ming's identity.
Zu An thought, with the way Uncle Ming and Jian Taiding sang in harmony, they must have been in cahoots with each other for a long time.
The most trusted person didn't even know he was betrayed, so it's not an injustice for Jian Yanyou to be taken over by his younger brother.
At this time, Gong Pan said: "The Duke was seriously injured before, which not only caused a temporary decline in cultivation, but also caused a lot of memory loss."
Hearing the uncertainty in his tone, Jian Taiding laughed loudly: "I guessed that you were going to say this, and I don't know where you found an impostor. Of course he didn't know about his elder brother, so why did he use it?
A poor excuse for amnesia."
The other people also nodded, feeling that Gong Pan seemed to be guilty of committing a crime like this.
Gong Pan's face turned red and he was about to defend, but Zu An stretched out his hand to stop him: "It's okay. Although some memories are missing, most of them are still remembered. Uncle Ming, just ask."
There was something strange in Uncle Ming's eyes, so he asked seven or eight questions in a row. At the beginning, he chose some things that people in the family knew. It can be seen that the other party's answers were fluent, and his questions became more and more unpopular and tricky.
But no matter how he asked, Zu An could always answer.
The suspicion in the eyes of the surrounding melon-eaters gradually faded away, and the excitement of seeing the owner returned again.
Jian Taiding saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly came out and scolded: "With a little investigation, it is not difficult to get the answers to these questions. Since you dare to pretend to be the eldest brother, how can you not prepare in advance? So knowing this does not prove that you are the eldest brother.
"
Uncle Ming hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "What the second master said is not unreasonable."
Jian Taiding's confidants also hurriedly agreed, and soon the other neutral factions who had originally believed began to waver in their hearts.
"Then how do you prove it?" Zu An looked at Jian Taiding and Uncle Ming, "Do you really not believe it, or do you not want me to come back at all?"
There were also smart people in the field. After they thought about it for a moment, their eyes turned strange when they looked at the two of them.
"You are such a slanderer!" Jian Taiding suddenly became anxious, "I am the eldest brother's younger brother. How can I not tell whether you are real or fake?"
At this moment, a soft and pleasant voice came from the side: "Yanyou is my husband. Do you think a woman can tell her husband apart?"
Yu Yanluo, who had been deliberately dragging behind, came slowly over from a distance with Xing Nu and other attendants.
The maids along the way lowered their heads in inferiority. Compared with her, no matter how pretty the maids were, they were like sparrows seeing a phoenix.
The servants' hearts were beating fast, but everyone knew that the identities of the two parties were completely different, and they were very satisfied if they could take one more look at them.
Seeing her peerless brilliance and Pingting's graceful figure, Jian Taiding's eyes flashed with a hint of fascination. However, he was not an ordinary person. He recovered quickly and stepped forward to salute: "I've met my sister-in-law!"
Yu Yanluo nodded calmly and pretended to be surprised: "How come the second uncle was so seriously injured?"
Jian Taiding said: "We were ambushed by several monster clan masters and their troops before. Although they were slightly injured, they were able to escape without any chance of return, thus protecting the safety of the people of Yunzhong County."
Zu An secretly cursed him for being shameless. This guy was obviously beaten like a dog by him, but now he is putting gold on his face.
"These monsters are really hateful," Yu Yanluo responded in a nonchalant manner, then looked at Zu An aside, with a smile of 'surprise' on her face, "Yanyou, you're back!"
Zu An opened his hand to her: "Yes, I'm back!"
Yu Yanluo's expression was slightly startled, and then the blush on her cheeks disappeared. Why didn't this guy follow the agreement? He had to do this...
But in public, she couldn't refute the other person's face, so she could only pretend to be surprised and trotted over and threw herself into his arms: "Yanyou, wasn't I dreaming?"
At the same time, he secretly communicated with Yuan Qi: "He is indeed a bad person, deliberately taking advantage of me."
Zu An smiled slightly: "Madam, you don't have to hug me."
Yu Yanluo only felt that her teeth were a little itchy. This guy really got an advantage and behaved so well.
Jian Taiding's eyes widened, and then he became furious. He had never even touched his fairy-like sister-in-law, whom he had admired for a long time, but now she fell into the arms of another man!
Is it tolerable or not?
The anger value from Jian Taiding is +999+999+999...
