son, don't mess around

"Poetry party?"

Lin Jiangnian was stunned for a moment: "Chujiang City still has this thing?"

"Of course!"

Jiang Yuxiang rolled her eyes at Lin Jiangnian: "Don't you know?"

"Never heard of it." Lin Jiangnian shook his head. It was a word that sounded so distant yet so familiar.

When he first came here, Lin Jiangnian was indeed full of energy and vigor, thinking about those predecessors, didn't they all rely on copying their works to show off in front of people at various poetry gatherings and capture the hearts of various talented ladies?

Lin Jiangnian thought that he could at least memorize dozens of the 300 Tang poems, so shouldn't he replicate them?
However, the imagination is beautiful!
Lin Jiangnian never had the chance to realize this ambition!
After all, he was nominally the fake Prince of Lin at the time. As a dandy boy, he suddenly became talented, which was obviously a problem.

After arriving in the capital, although there were many gatherings of scholars to exchange ideas, Lin Jiangnian no longer had any interest in them.

He is the prince of Linwang. He has money and women. He has everything he needs. Why would he have nothing better to do than to attend a poetry meeting?
Besides, isn’t the most famous talented woman in the capital Zhao Xi?

Based on the relationship between Lin Jiangnian and Zhao Xi, why would they need any talent to conquer her?
Therefore, Lin Jiangnian did not pay attention to these.

Hearing about the poetry reading now reminded him of this long-lost and familiar memory.

Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival?
This is so classic!

This is a scene that many predecessors have almost copied to death!
I don't know how many times the Water Melody Song has been copied, I'm afraid it has long been forgotten...

"what are you laughing at?"

Jiang Yuxiang was just thinking about it when she suddenly saw a strange smile on Lin Jiangnian's face.

"I remembered something happy."

"What happy thing?"

"nothing……"

Lin Jiangnian came back to his senses and lowered his head to the letter in Jiang Yuxiang's hand: "Xu Xiuzhu invited you to participate in this Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival?"

"Exactly!"

Lin Jiangnian looked at Jiang Yuxiang in surprise: "Aunt, do you know poetry?"

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Yuxiang glared at him: "Do you look down on me?"

"I, your aunt, am at least proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting!"

Jiang Yuxiang's words were convincing.

"Proficient in everything?"

Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows, as if remembering something: "But why did I hear from others that when you were a child, you chased after your private school teacher and beat him up..."

"shut up!"

Before Lin Jiangnian could finish his words, Jiang Yuxiang interrupted him in embarrassment: "Those are all rumors!"

"Okay, it's a rumor!"

Lin Jiangnian nodded, pretending to believe it, and paused before saying, "However, it seems that Xu Xiuzhu doesn't have any good ideas. He invited you to the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival. I wonder if he has some purpose?"

"So, you come with me this time!"

Jiang Yuxiang said.

"Will you still have to recite poems when the time comes?"

Although plagiarism is fun, Lin Jiangnian obviously has no interest in it.

Jiang Yuxiang glanced at him: "Can you?"

"will not."

"That's it!"

Jiang Yuxiang said unhappily: "No one is forcing you."

"I can rest assured that."

Lin Jiangnian felt relieved.

"Look at your potential!"

Jiang Yuxiang glared at him unhappily and stood up slowly: "It's okay, I'm leaving. You get ready."

"what to prepare?"

"Don't let me know when the time comes. If you do, I'll show you how I'll punish you!"

Jiang Yuxiang rolled her eyes and turned away.

Lin Jiangnian was left sitting in the pavilion, looking at his aunt's back as she left, deep in thought.

Is it exposed?
He certainly wouldn't reveal the truth.

Can……

This always feels weird.

An indescribable emotion surged in my heart... For some reason, I always felt that my aunt was committing a crime!

but……

There shouldn't be any accidents.

Lin Jiangnian thought silently in his heart, after all, no matter what...

……

The Mid-Autumn Festival has arrived, and the entire Chujiang City is immersed in the joyful atmosphere of the festival.

The more economically prosperous a place is, the greater the enthusiasm for festivals is.

But this is the case in Chujiang City.

Since the past two days, the city has been building up momentum, with various businesses launching various tryst activities to attract customers, and the flow of people on the streets has increased significantly.

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, the entire Chujiang City was crowded. Even the busy people on weekdays stopped working and walked out of the streets.

The whole city is filled with the festive atmosphere.

In the afternoon, a carriage stopped quietly outside the Jiang Mansion.

An old figure, supported by servants, slowly appeared at the door of the Jiang family.

"Master Sun, please come in!"

At the gate of Jiang Mansion, servants had been waiting for a long time. They greeted the old figure as he entered the mansion and came to a side hall.

Sun Changtian, who was thin and dressed in a gray Taoist robe, sat in the hall with an expressionless face, accompanied by two servants.

It was quiet in the hall.

"Master Sun, please wait a moment. My old man will be here soon."

After the servants left, silence fell all around.

"This Jiang Yuan is really a big shot!"

Sun Changtian sneered and looked outside the yard, as if thinking about something.

"Is he trying to intimidate you, Grandpa?"

Behind Sun Changtian, there was his beloved little grandson who was following him and asked cautiously.

"He's an old man, about to die. I want to see what tricks he wants to play!"

There was disdain in Mr. Sun's eyes, and at the same time, a hint of barely perceptible anger flashed across his eyes.

As an old man of the Sun family who had retired for many years, he was naturally angry because he was forced to come out this time.

Right now, he is venting his emotions without any concealment.

Until, after a while, a hearty laugh was heard outside the hall.

"Brother Sun, you are still as bad-tempered as ever!"

Sun Changtian looked up suddenly, and a cheerful figure gradually appeared behind the pavilion.

It’s Mr. Jiang!
Old Master Jiang, dressed in a gray robe, approached slowly.

Sun Changtian stared at him, his face seemed a little surprised: "You are not dead yet?"

"You're not dead yet, how could I die?"

Mr. Jiang put his hands behind his back and spoke in a cheerful tone.

Sun Changtian sneered: "I heard that you were seriously ill and dying... I didn't expect you to be so lucky and still alive."

"A lot of people want me dead, but I am still alive and well. Isn't that infuriating?"

Old Master Jiang smiled and sat down beside him.

"I don't think you can keep jumping around for much longer!"

Old Master Sun sneered.

He concealed the surprise in his eyes. How come Mr. Jiang still looks so healthy?

Didn’t you say before that you only had one breath left?

Could it be fake?
Old Master Sun's face was slightly solemn. If this old thing continued to live, the Jiang family would be difficult to deal with.

"It's okay, as long as I live longer than you!"

The two were obviously old acquaintances, and neither of them gave in when speaking.

Old Master Jiang looked at him and said with a smile, "You have been practicing Taoism for several years, but you haven't made any progress. Instead, you look like you are about to starve to death. I guess you are going to die soon, right?"

Sun Changtian's face turned cold, and he stopped talking nonsense: "I won't say any more nonsense, Jiang Yuan, I'm here. Tell me, what tricks are you playing!"

Mr. Jiang looked calm: "What do you mean?"

Sun Changtian stared at him: "Why did you let people detain my two sons?" Old Master Jiang shook his head: "You are slandering me, I didn't detain them."

"Who else could it be if it wasn't you?"

Sun Changtian sneered: "Without your permission, who in the Jiang family dares to detain someone from my Sun family?"

"Jiang Yuan, I know you have a grudge against me, but you and I are relatives after all. Now you have done something like this. Do you still have any shame?"

Old Master Jiang said calmly, "Whether you believe it or not, I didn't arrest this man. Why would I arrest your two useless sons?"

"What's going on?" Sun Changtian stared at him.

"Then you have to ask your two good sons!"

Old Master Jiang sneered: "Your two sons have offended people they shouldn't have offended!"

Hearing this, Sun Changtian frowned suddenly.

Someone who shouldn't be offended?

Who could it be?
"Just say what you want to say." Sun Changtian stared at him and said coldly.

"It's not my idea to call you here this time. After all, I'm not interested in meeting an old man like you. However, this matter concerns my Jiang family after all, so an old man like me naturally has to show up."

"Who is it?" Sun Changtian asked coldly, as if he realized something.

Old Master Jiang slowly raised his head and looked outside the hall.

Sun Changtian's gaze followed suit and he soon saw a figure outside the hall.

A young man in his twenties, wearing a white brocade robe.

He was walking slowly into the hall, stopped, and looked at Sun Changtian calmly.

"Who are you?!"

When Sun Changtian saw the young man, his eyes stayed on his face. After looking at him for a few seconds, his expression suddenly changed slightly, as if he realized something.

"You, you are..."

Obviously, he seemed to have seen something from the appearance of the young man in front of him.

"Prince Lin?!"

"Master Sun, do you recognize this prince?"

In the pavilion, Lin Jiangnian glanced at him and said lightly.

It really is the Prince Lin? !

At this moment, countless thoughts seemed to burst out in Sun Changtian's mind.

His eyes instantly became sharp, he stared at Lin Jiangnian, and asked in astonishment: "When did you come to Chujiang City?"

"I've been here for a while."

Lin Jiangnian said calmly.

Sun Changtian's heart sank. This Prince Lin really came to Chujiang City secretly... What on earth did he want to do? !

Sun Changtian narrowed his eyes, glanced at Old Man Jiang, and his voice suddenly sank: "So, it was you who detained my two sons?!"

"Exactly."

Lin Jiangnian did not hide it and nodded in acknowledgement.

"Why?!"

Sun Changtian stared at him and questioned coldly.

But I already had a guess in my mind.

"That naturally leads to the question of what your two good sons did?"

Lin Jiang laughed and glanced outside the hall: "Bring him in."

Soon, the guards outside the door led the two of them closer.

"What are you doing? Let me go!"

"Do you know who I am?"

A cursing voice was heard, and two familiar voices appeared in Sun Changtian's sight.

They were Sun Jingguo and Sun Yue who were detained in Jiang Mansion.

At this time, the two men looked a little disheveled and dirty, but they had no injuries on their bodies and obviously had not suffered any abuse.

Sun Jingguo had a gloomy face and said nothing, while Sun Yue next to him was cursing and speaking angrily.

When the two appeared in the hall, they immediately saw Grandpa Sun sitting beside them.

"Father? Dad?!"

Sun Jingguo and Sun Yue saw Sun Changtian at the same time and spoke at the same time.

Sun Jingguo showed a look of astonishment on his face, and then realized something. Sun Yue, on the other hand, was overjoyed and hurried forward.

"Dad, you're finally here, you're finally here... Dad, please give me justice!"

Sun Yue spoke excitedly, but his eyes immediately turned angry: "The Jiang family is too much, they beat my sister and imprisoned me and my second brother, Dad, you must..."

"Shut up!"

Before Sun Yue could finish speaking, Sun Changtian scolded him coldly.

Sun Yue's voice stopped abruptly, and he suddenly realized that the atmosphere in the hall seemed to be a little wrong!
Sun Yue looked up and saw the old man sitting in the main hall...Why did he look familiar?

Also, the young man next to him... isn't he the 'adulterer'?
Sun Yue's eyes widened immediately, "Dad, it's him, it's him..."

Sun Yue suddenly pointed at Lin Jiangnian and said excitedly and angrily: "It was this 'adulterer' who beat my second sister and then beat me... Dad, you must shut up for me!"

"shut up!"

At this moment, Sun Changtian was furious and spoke in a cold voice.

His face suddenly became extremely gloomy.

Sun Yue was also startled and felt a little aggrieved: "Dad, why are you..."

"Your Majesty!"

Sun Changtian spoke angrily with a gloomy tone and unable to suppress his anger.

Sun Yue finally realized that his father was really angry. His legs suddenly went weak and he fell to his knees.

"father……"

At the same time, he felt more and more aggrieved.

Dad, what happened?
Why are you suddenly scolding me?
He felt aggrieved, but did not dare to open his mouth to refute.

At this moment, Sun Changtian was breathing rapidly and his face looked extremely ugly.

He had a son in his old age and doted on his youngest son, which led to his becoming like this.

They have no respect for the law, are lawless, and act recklessly and foolishly.

At this moment, his face was so gloomy that it almost turned into charcoal.

"Master Sun, you should know the reason, right?"

At this time, Lin Jiangnian on the side spoke again lightly.

The indifferent tone made Sun Changtian's face even uglier.

He finally knew what was going on...it was all this rebellious son's fault!

Sun Jingguo on the side was also a little confused at this time. Although he was not as reckless and brainless as Sun Yue, he was also a little confused at this time.

Looking at the scene in front of him, his expression was slightly gloomy. He didn't say anything. His eyes fell on Lin Jiangnian, and then he glanced at the old man Jiang next to him.

As if gradually realizing something, my heart began to sink.

There is an ominous feeling.

At this moment, Sun Changtian slowly stood up, walked in front of Sun Yue, stared at him, and said in a cold voice: "Kowtow and apologize!"

Sun Yue was even more confused!
"Dad, what am I doing wrong..."

"Snapped!"

Before Sun Yue could finish his words, Sun Changtian slapped him hard in the face.

He was extremely angry and said, "Kowtow and apologize!"

"Apologize to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Sun Changtian's voice was cold, and his tone was filled with unquestionable majesty.

Sun Yue felt dizzy after being slapped.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

Where did this His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come from?
Sun Yue covered his red and swollen face, looked up in the direction of his father's finger, and his eyes fell on Lin Jiangnian.

He seemed frozen in place.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

He was still in a daze when he saw his father suddenly turn around and look at Lin Jiangnian who had hit him before.

Then, he suddenly bowed slightly and said in a low, apologetic voice: "I didn't educate my family well enough, and I gave birth to a rebellious son. I have offended His Royal Highness, so please forgive me!"

Sun Yue, who saw this scene, was completely stunned.

My mind went blank for a moment.

His Royal Highness?!
