When Yan Ru'an woke up from the coma, bursts of pain hit him everywhere around his body, making Yan Ru'an couldn't help but let out a moan.
Then, Yan Ru'an vaguely heard some exclamations.
"Yan Gongzi has woken up, go and inform the master!"
"Is the medicine boiled? Bring it here! β
In a daze, Yan Ru'an's mind gradually cleared up, and he finally opened his eyes.
As far as the eye can see, I am now lying on the bed, and in front of me is a room with extremely luxurious decoration, a table, a chair, a flower and a vase, all of which are very exquisite. In the room, there are many maids who are busy with something, and the smell of medicine around them is tangy.
Yan Ru'an's family is poor, and he can only live in the Jude Inn near Eunuch Lane when he even enters Beijing to take the exam, how can he ever see such a luxuriously decorated room? I couldn't help but be a little nervous for a while.
But more often than not, there are doubts.
"Where is this? How am I here? Why am I in pain and unable to move? What happened? β
Yan Ru'an secretly recalled with a little nervousness, but after a while, he finally remembered what had happened.
I failed the exam, the innkeeper turned his face to ask for an account, was robbed of the family heirloom jade pendant, the cynicism of the eunuchs around him, and his own words counterattacked...... Then, not long after he left the Jude Inn, he was surrounded by those eunuchs in an alley, and then he was beaten and pained......
The humiliating experience in his memory was countless times more painful than the many injuries on his body, and as the scenes in his memory became clearer, Yan Ru'an's body gradually trembled.
And then. In Yan Ru'an's mind, there was only one thought in his mind for a while!
Get you back!!
Thinking like this, Yan Ru'an's body. Gradually, the trembling stopped.
But Yan Ru'an's eyes were gradually filled with blood!
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Yan Gongzi, you finally woke up?"
Suddenly, Yan Ru'an heard a greeting.
turned his head to look, but saw a middle-aged man dressed as a steward, looking at him with concern, for some reason, his expression was faintly sympathetic and pitying.
Yan Ru'an is a smart person. Although his brain is still a little confused, he also knows that he has been beaten and knocked unconscious by those eunuchs. He must have been brought here for treatment, and all the injuries on his body have been treated, and it is obvious that the doctors here have paid for.
So, after seeing someone appear. Yan Ru'an didn't dare to slack off. hurriedly suppressed all the thoughts in his heart, and wanted to get up and thank him.
However, Yan Ru'an's body had too many injuries and was too heavy, and he was really weak, lying on the bed no matter how hard he tried, but he just couldn't sit up.
The middle-aged man dressed as a steward, when he saw Yan Ru'an's appearance, he also understood Yan Ru'an? Thinking.? The wreck of the kang put the blind and the lonely Min Qi into the tired gull 2 Huai, the nose provoked the pelican Qiao 6 pine silk mound phantom quality and ring beech often spoon Pan prayer boiled bald n θ₯₯ hidao Gongzi wants to say something grateful, but the person who saved you is not me, but my master, my master will be there in a while, and when you see my master, Yan Gongzi, it is not too late for you to be grateful. β
Hearing what the steward said, Yan Ru'an nodded, forcibly endured the dry throat, and asked, "Excuse me, what do you call it?" Where is this place? Who saved me? β
The steward replied: "My name is Zhao Fu, and I am a steward in the Zhao Mansion, and as for this place, of course, it is a guest room in the Zhao Mansion, and the person who saved you is also my Lord Zhao." β
"Zhao Mansion? Lord Zhao? β
Hearing Zhao Fu's answer, Yan Ru'an was still a little puzzled, and didn't understand which one Zhao Fu and "Lord Zhao" were referring to.
Seeing Yan Ru'an's puzzled expression, Zhao Fu looked proud, and further explained: "Although there are many officials surnamed Zhao in the capital, generally speaking, when the word 'Lord Zhao' is mentioned, it refers to the current day of my master? ahref='/txt/16711/7o2o261/'>. ζΊζ€€1o ιcΠ€straw key] cheek source is playing tricks Lu ε³ ah wish to be pretty Yi Qin ι₯«ι©!?br/>
Zhao Junchen!? That notorious corrupt official and traitor? He actually saved himself!? He is now in Zhao Junchen's mansion!?
For a while, Yan Ru'an's mind was a little confused.
Yan Ru'an's talent is not bad, Liu Zimin did things for Zhao Junchen at the beginning, and gathered those who had real talent and were willing to take refuge in Zhao Junchen, Yan Ru'an was also among the targets. However, Yan Ru'an at that time thought that he could be named on the gold list even if he didn't need Zhao Junchen's support, and he cherished his reputation, so he refused without hesitation.
It can be seen that the original Yan Ru'an had a bad impression of Zhao Junchen, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is disdainful.
However, people will be affected by subjective feelings, and now Yan Ru'an, when he was the most embarrassed wolf in his life, and he had just suffered the biggest humiliation in his life, and Zhao Junchen's help at this time also made Yan Ru'an's impression of Zhao Junchen instantly reversed.
On the other hand, Zhao Fu's words deepened Yan Ru's gratitude and goodwill towards Zhao Junchen in peace of mind.
I only heard Zhao Fu sigh: "Yan Gongzi, you are also fortunate in misfortune, you actually met my master, otherwise with the injuries suffered by Gongzi, if there is no one to help, I am afraid that you will never wake up again." Ay! In today's world, it is no longer as simple as the retro time, when my master met the son, the son was full of injuries and was left naked on the street, hundreds of people watched, but they were all just looking at the excitement, and no one helped out, thinking about such a scene, it was really emotional. β
After Yan Ru'an was surrounded by those eunuchs, he fainted after being knocked down halfway, and he didn't know that he was stripped naked and thrown on the street for the people to watch.
At this time, hearing Zhao Fu mention this, Yan Ru'an's sense of shame became more and more intense, thinking of the ruthless innkeeper, and thinking of those eunuchs who fell into the well, and then thinking of the people who were just onlookers but no one helped, although Yan Ru'an's face was expressionless, but a trace of unprecedented cruelty flashed in his eyes.
After being silent for a long time, Yan Ru'an said slowly: "Most people in the world are despicable and selfish, but they are just good at disguise, when they see others down. It is also to take advantage of the fire to rob and fall into the well, and the rest will only gloat and watch the excitement, and how many people can send charcoal in the snow to save people in danger? β
Hear Yan Ru'an's cynical words. Zhao Fu said with relief: "Childe doesn't have to think like this, there are still kind-hearted people in this world after all, such as my family, didn't you save Childe?" With the current status of my family, it is impossible to seek any benefits from Childe, and the reason why I saved Childe is all because of a good intention. β
Is Zhao Junchen a well-wisher? If it was Yan Ru'an in the past. When you hear such an argument, you will inevitably laugh with shame.
But now, Yan Ruan has suffered a lot of humiliation. His heart was full of the extreme idea that "everyone in the world is despicable and selfish", and he was saved by Zhao Junchen, but his attitude and position quietly changed.
"Although Zhao Junchen has a bad reputation, he is at least much better than those hypocrites who hide knives in their smiles! And Zhao Junchen also saved me when I was in the most danger! The world says that Zhao Junchen is a corrupt official and traitor. But this is the top and bottom officials of the DPRK. How many are of good character? And Zhao Junchen's reputation over the years may not be that those hypocrites in the court are jealous and are pouring dirty water! β
With such a thought in his heart, Yan Ru'an actually nodded yes to Zhao Fu's words, and his expression was full of seriousness and no perfunctory!
Seeing Yan Ru'an's expression, a smile flashed at the corner of Zhao Fu's mouth.
As a matter of fact. Zhao Fu said these words to Yan Ru'an, all of which were personally ordered by Zhao Junchen. It is precisely in order to plant the seeds of cynicism in Yan Ru'an's heart, and when Zhao Junchen comes forward next, he can really take Yan Ru'an for his own use!
β¦β¦β¦β¦
On the other side, after Yan Ru'an was fed some bitter medicine and water, his body had more strength, and his throat was not as dry as before, and he suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Steward Zhao, do you actually know my identity and name?" β
Zhao Fu nodded and said: "This is natural, with the status of my family's adult, what can't be found out?" After rescuing Gongzi, my family will order someone to find out all your identity and background, and always understand why you are injured, Gongzi Yan. By the way, I heard that Yan Gongzi was robbed of his family heirloom jade pendant before he was injured, and my family has already helped you redeem it. β
Hearing Zhao Fu's explanation and learning that his family heirloom jade pendant had been taken back, Yan Ru'an was more and more grateful to Zhao Junchen, but also couldn't help but be excited, so he wanted to sit up and say something.
However, Yan Ru'an's excitement didn't matter, but it affected the wounds all over his body, and other places were just gone, and the crotch, especially the pain, almost made Yan Ru'an unconscious again.
The pain in his crotch suddenly reminded Yan Ruan of some unbearable memories.
When he was beaten, those eunuchs seemed to have been picking on his crotch, and the attack was extremely heavy, and the reason why he eventually passed out was because his crotch was trampled hard.
Such nightmarish memories came to mind, and Yan Ru'an's cheeks instantly turned pale.
Thinking of Zhao Fu talking to him again, his expression was full of pity and sympathy, and Yan Ru'an's heart even appeared with a terrifying thought that he couldn't even think of!
"Steward Zhao...... How strict are the injuries on me, my body? β
Yan Ru'an suddenly trembled and asked Zhao Fu.
Zhao Fu sighed, but did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Is there a brother in Yan Gongzi's family?" Or can you have a wife? β
Seeing that Yan Ru'an didn't answer, just looked at himself stunned, Zhao Fu sighed again and said: "Yan Gongzi's other injuries are just bruises or bleeding, and he will recover after a period of recuperation, but only the male root of Gongzi ...... I am afraid that it will be difficult to recover the past and not be able to have offspring...... Child's Day mourning ......"
Then, Yan Ru'an passed out again.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When Yan Ru'an woke up again, he saw that there was no one else in the room he was in. Only at the head of the bed, a handsome and richly dressed young man was sitting there, playing with a jade pendant in his hand.
That jade pendant is the family heirloom he was robbed by the shopkeeper Hu!
Now this heirloom is in front of his eyes, but Yan Ru'an no longer has any excitement, and his expression is full of despair and defeat.
β¦β¦ Only the male root of the son...... I'm afraid it's hard to get back to the past...... Inability to have offspring...... Child's Day mourning......
Yan Ru'an's heart just echoed with such a sentence at this time.
Yan Ru'an has no brothers, nor does he have a wife. Even his father died young. Now that even he has had an accident, the Yan family is about to break the incense inheritance from now on, but how can Yan Ru'an face the ancestors of the Yan family?
In this day and age. It doesn't get much more desperate than that.
What's more, the male root is a symbol of men, which is related to the dignity of men, and now it is damaged and useless, so Yan Ru'an will no longer be a man! There is no more dignity to talk about!
Yan Ru'an used to despise those eunuchs in the eunuch alley the most, but from now on. But he will also become the same goods, and from then on he can only be a half-dead remnant of the world, and let the world despise him. There's nothing interesting about life anymore.
This blow to Yan Ru'an can be described as devastating!
Therefore, for the family heirloom jade pendant in front of him, Yan Ruan no longer cares, and he can't give birth. What's the use of the family heirloom jade pendant coming back? To whom can it be passed on?
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The young man sitting at the head of the bed. It was Zhao Junchen.
Seeing the disgrace and despair on Yan Ru'an's face, Zhao Junchen sighed and asked, "Yan Gongzi is already desperate?" β
Yan Ru'an didn't respond, just opened his eyes and looked ahead in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
Zhao Junchen frowned, and asked again: "Then, Yan Gongzi, you don't want to take revenge either?" β
This time, Zhao Junchen's words. finally made Yan Ruan react.
Hearing the word "revenge", I saw Yan Ru'an's body shocked. There was a light in his eyes.
People live in the world, and they are most afraid of losing their lives? ahref='/txt/16711/484942o/'>.purpose. It's no fun to be alive.
But on the contrary, if there is a clear purpose, human beings are often able to burst into power that no one can imagine? ahref='/txt/16711/4977324/'>.
Seeing Yan Ru'an's appearance, Zhao Junchen smiled, put the jade pendant in his hand in Yan Ru'an's hand, and then said: "I helped you redeem this jade pendant, but there is only so much I can help you, and the rest is up to you." β
Yan Ru'an looked at the jade pendant in his hand in a daze, and suddenly raised his head and asked, "You are Lord Zhao?" β
Zhao Junchen nodded.
Yan Ru'an didn't say anything grateful, just gritted his teeth and asked, "Where are the shopkeepers in the inn and those eunuchs who plagued me?" β
Zhao Junchen looked at the sky outside the house, saw that the night was getting darker, and replied, "At such a time, I'm afraid they are having dinner at their respective homes." β
Yan Ru'an's body was shocked, and he looked at Zhao Junchen with incredulity.
He thought that Zhao Junchen would administer justice for him, but he didn't expect that those who persecuted and humiliated him were still at large.
Seeing Yan Ru'an's expression, Zhao Junchen sighed and said: "As I said, I helped you redeem the jade pendant, but that's all, the rest is up to you, some things must be done by yourself, if you borrow the hands of others, how can it be regarded as real revenge?" Humiliation, grievances, and resentment must be solved by oneself, and then they can be truly liberated, otherwise they will only entangle themselves for the rest of their lives, Yan Gongzi, do you say this is the truth? β
After a pause, Zhao Junchen said again: "What's more, I can't help you do more, the shopkeeper of the Jude Inn and the eunuchs in the Eunuch Alley testify to each other, those eunuchs said that Yan Gongzi You voluntarily mortgaged the jade pendant to the shopkeeper of the Jude Inn, and the shopkeeper of the Jude Inn testified that those eunuchs have no time to hurt Yan Gongzi you, and due to insufficient evidence, I can't help them." β
Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, Yan Ru'an was thoughtful at first, and then his hatred became stronger, but in the end, he seemed to have lost all his strength, collapsed on the bed, and said with a look full of despair: "My lord, although you are reasonable, but I am just a waste person now, how can I take revenge with my own hands?" β
Zhao Junchen seemed to smile and said, "Waste? Not necessarily, as long as Yan Gongzi is willing, let alone retaliating against some black businessmen, even if you want to tilt the power into the opposition, it is not impossible. β
Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, Yan Ruan couldn't help but be stunned, and looked at Zhao Junchen with doubts.
A waste person like him can still be in power?
Zhao Junchen smiled and asked, "Does the son know Wang Zhen?" β
Yan Ru'an didn't know why Zhao Junchen suddenly changed the topic, but he still nodded: "I know, he is the great eunuch of Yingzong, and he is also the first authoritarian eunuch of our dynasty, and his power influence is no less than that of Wei Zhongxian of the previous dynasty." β
Zhao Junchen nodded and asked, "Then Yan Gongzi knows, why can this Wang Zhen be able to tilt the power of the government and the opposition?" β
Yan Ru'an shook his head blankly.
Zhao Junchen sighed: "This is because Wang Zhen is a rare scholar who has been emasculated into the palace!" You must know that most of the eunuchs who are willing to castrate themselves into the palace are just folk people who can't survive, and they are all illiterate and unusable. Therefore, among the inner court of this palace, there is the most lack of literate talents, but who is willing to enter the palace as a eunuch if they can read and write?
However, the more scarce things in this world are, the more precious they are, and the more they are valued. That Wang Zhen was originally a teacher, and even had a reputation for being a student, but the road to the imperial examination was not smooth, he could not get the fame of the people, and his life was embarrassed, so he had to castrate himself into the palace, but he could be regarded as the right way.
Although his knowledge is not enough to cope with the imperial examination, but among the eunuchs in the palace, he is outstanding among the best, so he was soon valued and promoted, and within a few years, he has entered the ceremonial eunuch, holding great power, and later, even Yingzong called him Mr., and the ministers called him Weng's father, competing to cling, and the power was strong, which can be seen.
But in the end, the reason why he was able to have such power was not because of how clever his means were, nor how lucky he was, but simply because he was the most learned among the eunuchs. β
Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, Yan Ru'an had already guessed what Zhao Junchen meant, his face was pale, and his expression was full of resistance, but faintly, in the depths of his eyes, he was a little impatient!
Zhao Junchen didn't care about Yan Ru'an's change in expression, he just continued leisurely: "However, Wang Zhen's knowledge is actually just a student, and he can't even take the test to raise his fame, but he can still have such an achievement, which can't help but make people sigh." Sometimes even I can't help but wonder what kind of sensation it will cause if someone is willing to emasculate himself? And what kind of attention will it arouse? If you want to become the next Wang Zhen and the next Wei Zhongxian, I'm afraid it's just the bottom line.
Similarly, if he has such power, if he wants to take revenge on some black businessmen and Po Lai for the humiliation he once had, I am afraid it is only as easy as raising his hand, and with such power, even if he becomes a eunuch, who would dare to look down on him? Yan Gongzi, do you say that's the truth? β
Zhao Junchen's whispering, like the temptation of a demon, kept tugging at Yan Ru'an's heartstrings.
However, Zhao Junchen's eyes when he looked at Yan Ru'an were clear and sincere.
