More than twenty years of exile have made Ji Fengzhuo an extremely cautious person.

Although he knew that the Huan family would not harm him, he still carefully selected the place to meet Huan Yan - a farm located in the southern suburbs of the county.

Naturally, Huan Yan did not dare to be careless about his ambitious brother-in-law, whom he had never met before, and also made careful arrangements.

When they arrived at the meeting place, Ji Fengzhuo's bodyguard wanted to go in and report, but Huan Yan walked in directly.

The guards who pretended to be idle men did not dare to stop him. They could only watch him walk into the farm and watch the farm being surrounded by people.

Huan Yan pushed open the door of the main room, and a middle-aged man who looked several years older than him came into view.

"Brother-in-law——" the middle-aged man greeted him warmly.

Huan Yan stopped and narrowed his eyes slightly.

This person's appearance is quite handsome, but compared to Ying Niang's charming appearance, it is not even a bit inferior.

Brothers and sisters from the same mother have no similarities at all.

Seeing that he had been sizing her up, Ji Fengzhuo chuckled and said, "Brother-in-law, are you doubting my identity?"

Huan Yan sneered and said, "What do you have to be suspicious of me? It's you who's asking for help, not me. What good does it do you to use a substitute to deceive me?"

Ji Fengzhuo laughed loudly and said: "You are indeed a good brother-in-law of Gu. His knowledge and magnanimity are truly unparalleled!"

Huan Yan didn't want to listen to his bragging and walked straight in.

This is an ordinary farmhouse, and the layout of the main house is mainly simple and practical.

Except for a table and a few chairs, the main room was empty, with almost nothing superfluous.

Huan Yan lifted up his robe and sat down, still refusing to take the initiative to speak.

Ji Fengzhuo sat down beside him and said with a smile: "I invited my brother-in-law here today just to catch up with you."

Huan Yan sneered: "How many old friendships can be recounted between people who meet for the first time? While I am still patient, Prince Ji may as well speak up if you have anything to say."

Ji Fengzhuo sighed: "The eldest sister concealed her identity because of the situation. It is reasonable for the brother-in-law to have resentment in his heart.

In addition to catching up with my brother-in-law during this trip, I also wanted to meet my nephew and his wife.

After all, he is his nephew and uncle, so it is hard not to keep away from each other for the rest of his life, or even meet him face to face."

Huan Yan was unmoved at all and said calmly: "Didn't you write a letter to my father? Without his consent, do you think you can stay here safely?"

Ji Fengzhuo sighed again.

"My brother-in-law is right. The reason why I can appear here is because the old county is open to the public.

He is extremely tolerant and generous, and he did not prevent me from meeting Yu Geer."

"Then you still come to find me?"

"Brother-in-law..." Ji Fengzhuo said with a bitter face: "Brother Yu's temperament is very similar to that of elder sister, both are equally stubborn.

I was worried that he wouldn't want to meet me, so I invited my brother-in-law here to ask you to make peace for us."

Huan Yan sneered: "Since we have never met, how can Prince Ji know Yu Geer's temperament?"

"This..." Ji Fengzhuo hesitated.

Huan Yan snorted coldly.

"Prince Ji secretly sent people to watch every move of the county government, so why should he pretend to be so innocent?

You have obviously been in Tianshui County for several days, but because Yu Geer and the others are not in the mansion, you have not made any move.

When you learned that they were returning home today, you immediately sent the letter to me. What exactly did you want to achieve?"

"My younger brother didn't lie. He really wanted his brother-in-law's help in making peace."

Huan Yan raised his eyes and looked at him, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.

Sometimes he is "lonely" and sometimes he is "little brother". This guy is not too tired to panic.

Ji Fengzhuo explained: "My little brother admits that he was indeed a bit tricked in this matter.

Brother Yu and the others only returned home at noon today. I guess they should be with their brother-in-law.

That's why I had someone deliver the letter. I thought that the young man was very curious and would follow me here secretly even if he couldn't accompany his brother-in-law to the appointment.

I never thought..."

Huan Yan waved his hand: "Let's not mention these things for now. I have something I want to ask you."

Ji Fengzhuo said hurriedly: "Brother-in-law, it's okay to say it. I will tell you everything I know."

Huan Yan really didn't want to listen to such an obvious lie.

"Before I married your eldest sister, you originally planned to identify yourself, right?"

"Yes, my younger brother was only thirteen years old at that time. Hearing that my eldest sister was about to marry the eldest son of Tianshui County of the Great Wei Dynasty, I would inevitably have some thoughts. My brother-in-law should be able to understand this."

Huan Yan nodded.

Ji Fengzhuo did not lie about this.

The thirteen-year-old boy not only carries a blood feud, but also shoulders the heavy responsibility of regaining the country. It is not surprising that he has some thoughts of quick success and quick gain.

Ji Fengzhuo smiled mockingly.

"I'm not afraid of my brother-in-law's jokes. After I left the palace, my younger brother ran away all the way. What kind of hardships has he not suffered?

At the worst time, I didn't even have to eat, and I even snatched steamed buns from beggars.

It was not easy for him to get in touch with several generals who were loyal to his father, but he fled away from the country because of Xiang Ni's pursuit.

It is said that there are 10,000 horses in hand, but in fact they are all old, weak, sick and disabled, and no more than 3,000 can actually fight.

The most pitiful thing is that we don't have enough money in our hands, so we have to rely on the old, weak, sick and disabled to earn money here and there to make ends meet.

Under such circumstances, I heard that the eldest sister has such a good fortune, and I hope that your marriage can come true, so that I can have the opportunity to meet the Emperor of Wei..."

When he said this, his eyes shone with a strange light, as if the throne of Jin Kingdom was very close at hand.

Huan Yan said coldly: "People in the world always like to use youth as an excuse. Now that you are over 10 years old, aren't you still making the same calculation?

Now that Brother Yu has married the Wei Emperor's sister-in-law, some things will become easier."

Ji Fengzhuo laughed and said: "Brother-in-law, you are too underestimated! Do you think Gu is still the young boy who was manipulated by others nineteen years ago?

After leaving the country to do business, our people naturally learned how to do business.

With enough money, is it still a matter of recruiting troops?

Xiang Ni is cruel and unkind by nature, and many people in the Jin Kingdom have rebelled in recent years. Based on my status, I can respond to a hundred calls..."

Huan Yan interrupted him: "In this case, I can rest assured. Prince Ji comes to visit Brother Yu as his uncle, and we should also show our loyalty as landlords.

The Japanese father-in-law didn't go anywhere these days, so he, Yu Geer and the young couple accompanied Prince Ji around and talked about their family ties.

You are someone who wants to do big things, and you won't be able to stay here for more than a few days, so we still have this little time."

Ji Fengzhuo was so angry that she fell back.

He always thought that old Duke Huan was an old fox, Huan Yu was a little fox, and only Huan Yan, who was caught in the middle, was the most honest.

Otherwise, why did the eldest sister deliberately conceal her identity back then?
