Chapter 28 - 24 Is it him!?
The next day.
As the sky began to brighten, Chen Yi and Chen Yuan were lifted from their beds.
It was only then they learned that the eldest had sneaked out quietly last night, nearly scaring the maids to death in the morning.
It wasn't as chaotic as chickens flying and dogs jumping, but it did disturb Zhou Wanyi, who was resting.
Fortunately, she knew her son well enough to send everyone to
"Your mother is unfilial; you must not learn from her."
"Mother is not like that at all."
The old man lifted Chen Yuan up, chuckling and nodding, "Good, good, good, my dear boy sides with your mother."
"That's right,"
Chen Yuan then pointed towards Chen Yi behind him, "Grandpa, that is my younger brother, Chen Yi."
Chen Yi, noticing the old man's gaze, respectfully greeted him after a brief sizing up, "Grandpa."
Is this Duke Jingye, Zhou Tiance?
"Good."
Zhou Tiance smiled and nodded, then turned to walk away.
"Yuan Er, how about Grandpa takes you to stay at the mansion for a few days?"
"Great, great... has mother agreed?" Chen Yuan asked.
"Of course, not only your mother agrees, but Old Madam Chen has agreed too."
While walking, Zhou Tiance said, "Since the Holy Emperor won't let you join the Academy, we'll rely on no one but ourselves; Grandpa will teach you personally."
Hmm?
Chen Yi subtly frowned upon hearing this.
These words suggested that Duke Jingye was somewhat irritated.
Could it be...
Just then, realizing the situation, Chen Taixing hurriedly intervened, "Old Marquis, please wait a moment."
"What? Are you planning to stop me?" Zhou Tiance's smile faded, instantly regaining the imposing air of a Marquis, he asked.
Chen Taixing forced a smile, repeatedly bowing, "Please forgive me, Marquis, but taking away Yuan Er requires that I first report to the Old Lady."
"No need, I have already discussed this matter with your Old Lady, from today onwards Yuan Er will cultivate at our Zhou Family!"
Having said this, Zhou Tiance turned to look at Chen Yi, his face slightly cold, his muddy eyes suddenly a bit brighter.
"It seems Marquis Taiping is unfit, even a concubine's child is ascending, blatantly disregarding the rules!"
His voice was undeniably loud.
But Chen Yi seemed not to hear, staring blankly at his murky eyes, as a thunderclap exploded in his mind.
It was him?!
The black-clothed man who pursued him that night was Duke Jingye Zhou Tiance?!
Just then, Chen Yi suddenly felt a chill over his body.
The next moment it was warmth, and then he saw—
[At the age of thirty-two, Small Success in Sword Dao, you encountered a murder intention attack from a formidable enemy, causing slight emotional impact.]
[Enemy's murder intention absorbed, effect neutralized, Rebellion Point +14.]
