Chapter 6595 Reopening
After sending his younger brother Zhen Yao away, Zhen Yan was the only member of the huge Zhen family left. As for servants and guards, they were still there, but they were very different from before.

"Tsk, I'm really down and out. But it's good this way. No one will care about me in the future. Let's go and have a drink." Zhen Yan shook his wide sleeves, and his lonely look faded away for the most part. He said with a bit of free and easy attitude. In Zhen Yan's impression, the Zhen family had never belonged to him, and the position of the head of the family was only temporarily entrusted to him, and even the title of marquis was the same. Now it has just been restored to its former state.

However, as soon as he went out, he met Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang who had returned from Chengdu. When they saw Zhen Yan, their faces were heavy, and then they grabbed Zhen Yan from the left and right.

"My two brothers, I can't help you this time. I gave you hundreds of millions of dollars before, but now I have less than a hundred million dollars left. I have to worry about my food for the rest of my life." Zhen Yan said with a sigh after being grabbed by Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang.

Zhen Yan was a man who was either rich or poor. He would not put on a brave face to challenge others. Earlier, when Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang took him to their casino to gamble, he knew what they wanted to do. They even cancelled the process of taking him to the casino and directly blackmailed him. Zhen Yan happily gave the money to them because he knew what the two guys were doing and he had enough money, so he gave it to them.

For Zhen Yan at that time, giving money to help was acceptable as long as it didn't get him into trouble. He had no shortage of money, but now, he really did. The Zhen family had money, but after experiencing such an incident, they were left with no money. Even if there was a little bit left, the bulk of it had to be given to his younger brother, so that he would have a chance to fight for a future.

It’s impossible for Zhen Yan, as his elder brother, to extinguish all his hopes.

"Fuck, are we brothers this kind of people?" Yuan Shu said angrily, "Before, it was because you were rich that we asked you to donate some money, which was considered robbing the rich to help the poor. If we were still like this now, we would be beasts. We just heard about your situation when we passed by and came to see how you are doing."

"What else could it be? My family has lost a large sum of money, Media is gone, and so is my title. I should enjoy myself for a few days while I can. There will be a court meeting in a few days, and I will have to go to jail." Zhen Yan did not seem to be feeling self-pitying. He looked as if he had let it go and was willing to just let it go.

"It's okay. I have a single room in the imperial prison. I'll lend it to you for a while." Liu Zhang said in a soothing tone. After all, he had donated heavily to the two brothers over the years and never looked down on them. The only one who gave money every time was Zhen Yan.

"Forget it, let's talk about it after the court meeting. I can still enjoy myself for a few days. Fortunately, the memberships I signed up for before are still valid and don't cost much." Zhen Yan didn't feel any ill will from Liu Zhang and Yuan Shu. They just came to visit him and were worried that he would go to extremes, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, brothers. I, Zhen Yan, am better than I was ten years ago. The Zhen family is in decline, but it doesn't mean I am worse off than before."

"Tsk, come on, come on. You used to treat us two brothers to drinks, this time we two brothers will treat you to drinks." Yuan Shu pulled Zhen Yan and said. They really heard about this and were worried that Zhen Yan would go to extremes, so they came to check on him and found that Zhen Yan was in good condition.

"Fine. I haven't even had two meals treated by you two, so I'm leaving." Zhen Yan didn't hesitate. The past was the past, and the present is the present. He had to eat for free if he could.

After Zhen Yan left with Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang, Zhang and Zhen Mi came out from the alley beside the Zhen family courtyard. They looked at Zhen Yan's back and breathed a sigh of relief. They were also worried that Zhen Yan could not bear it.

Although what the Zhen family did was indeed outrageous, if it happened to other daughters who married into wealthy families, they would most likely be cut off from each other at the speed of light and kept at a distance, but the backyards of both Liu Bei and Chen Xi were relatively simple, without too deep struggles. So when Zhang and Zhen Mi knew what the Zhen family had done, although it was very troublesome for them, they did not think of cutting off ties with the Zhen family directly.

Instead, he came here in person after the arbitration was over, because he was worried that Zhen Yan could not withstand the blow. Fortunately, everything seems to be fine now.

"It seems that your brother is in a good mood." Zhang patted Zhen Mi's head and said, but then Zhang frowned and said, "It's just that it feels that not only the elders of the family don't regard your brother as the head of the family, but your brother himself doesn't seem to regard himself as the head of the family either."

"After all, I didn't have any hope from the beginning." Zhen Mi sighed and said, "Let's go. My brother just left. Let's go and stabilize ourselves. Although we have lost our money, we can earn it again."

"That's right. No matter what, the northern waterway of the Grand Canal has not been taken back. It's just that the floating wealth is gone, so it's good to give it a good beating." Zhang said with some cruelty. If she had not remarried Liu Bei, she would have come here to deal with the elders of the Zhen family, to open up the wasteland and build a country. You bunch of useless people only care about making money, and your brains can't work, right? It's good to be beaten now.

"Has the waterway in the north of the Grand Canal not been reclaimed?" Zhen Mi asked in surprise.

"No, although we lost a lot of materials and money, and also lost the agricultural and animal husbandry industry that we built with great difficulty, we didn't take back the waterway." Zhang explained, "Although the family didn't follow the right path in these years, at least we are professional in making money."

"If we want to revive it this way, it will be much easier than we thought." Zhen Mi said with a relieved smile. She thought that the family had lost everything, but she didn't expect that the waterway north of the Grand Canal could still be preserved.

"But it's like all these years of work have been in vain. It's even worse than when I got married." Zhang pressed her daughter's head and said unhappily, "How many decades can a person have in his life?"

Then he patted his daughter's head and said, "Don't think about these things. You should give me a grandson as soon as possible. Why did you seem so smart when you were a child, but now you are so stupid? You may not have no spiritual talent, but if you continue to delay, Chen Zichuan's personal maid may have a child."

Zhen Mi looked at her mother somewhat awkwardly. She still wanted to make a last-ditch effort, especially after Tang Ji came back from the Ganges. It gave Zhen Mi a great shock. That old woman could hold out her spiritual talent, so I should be able to do it too if I try hard. My child must not lose at the starting line.

"Don't be silly. Tang Ji studied hard when she was about your age. When you should have been studying the most, you were studying how to marry Chen Zichuan." Zhang said helplessly, "Talent is important, but acquired efforts are the necessary condition for you to reach the limit of your talent."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Mi nodded silently and said nothing more.

"Anyway, don't delay. Sometimes having spiritual talent is not a good thing." Zhang said with a bit of coldness. Before Wu Yuan gave birth to a child, she had a good relationship with everyone in Liu Bei's backyard. Since she gave birth to Liu Yong, everyone's relationship has become strange.

After all, no one had posed a threat to Liu Chan before. Although Gan was a concubine, Liu Chan's position as the crown prince was extremely stable. The only one who might have posed a threat to Liu Chan earlier was Zhang, because Zhang was Liu Bei's legal wife and theoretically the child she gave birth to was a legitimate son.

As we all know, before Zhang gave birth to Liu Jiang, she thought she would definitely give birth to a daughter. Then, as expected, she gave birth to a daughter. All of Gan's possible worries disappeared, and their relationship quickly returned to normal. As for Zhang, Liu Chan had a gentle and kind personality, and was filial to his parents, so there would be no pressure for her to rely on him for her retirement in the future. Besides, she really couldn't give birth to a son. It was a bit weird.

When Wu Yuan came in, compared to the other concubines who had no presence in the backyard, Wu Yuan was a real giant. Fortunately, Wu Yuan's original goal was to let her daughter return to the Wu family with spiritual talents, and then start a killing mode and send the elders of the Wu family to hang themselves.

In short, Zhang and Gan felt that Wu Yuan had the temperament of a crazy woman, but they didn't say anything. Considering that she had spiritual talent, this madness was understandable. Moreover, she also had a daughter, so the three of them could join forces to protect Liu Chan together.

This was also the reason why Liu Chan and Wu Yuan had a good relationship in the early days. His wife really helped him. Even when Gan had something to do, Wu Yuan would take Liu Chan out to play.

However, all this came to an end after Wu Yuan gave birth to Liu Yong.

There was no way, Liu Yong was a boy, and all Wu Yuan’s plans exploded.

Naturally, rifts appeared among the three giants who had a good relationship. Wu Yuan's son really had spiritual talent. The reason why the royal family and the big families chose to establish the eldest son as the legitimate heir instead of the most capable one was because there was no clear indicator for establishing the most capable one. However, establishing the eldest son as the legitimate heir had a clear indicator, which at least would not cause internal friction and was of great benefit to the stability of the royal family and the big families.

But that was before. Now there is a clear indicator for selecting a talented person, and that is spiritual talent. This is outrageous. After all, if this can select the best person, anyone with a normal mind would hope that their leader is the best person in their family.

So after Wu Yuan gave birth to Liu Yong, a lot of troubles occurred.

It was precisely because of these rumors in and outside the hospital, as well as the fact that Gan and Wu Yuan's meeting was somewhat not as good as before, that Zhang felt that sometimes it was better to have no spiritual talent. At least if you didn't have it, there wouldn't be so many trivial matters.

"Mi'er, sometimes you can think about why Chen Yun, as a personal maid, would consider moving out, and why Cai Zhaoji would not move back to the Chen family no matter what." Zhang touched her daughter's head and said with some emotion, "Spiritual talent is a good thing, but sometimes it may not be a good thing."

Chen Yun has actually moved out of the Chen family. The personal maid of the head of the family generally cannot run away because she knows too many things. If she runs away at will, big problems will arise. Therefore, she must either be supported for life or die. The former is equivalent to half a wife, and the latter is nothing to say.

So theoretically, it was impossible for Chen Yun to move out no matter what. However, after Wu Yuan gave birth to Liu Yong, Chen Yun heard about the turmoil outside and discussed it with Fan Jian, begging Chen Xi to let her move out.

Because both parties were talking openly and frankly, and Chen Xi was aware of the turmoil outside and more or less understood Chen Yun's situation, he let Chen Yun go after a little hesitation.

Chen Yun actually didn't notice this before, but after Wu Yuan gave birth to Liu Yong, it reminded those few people with spiritual talents who were scattered as concubines - it would be fine if the offspring you give birth to is a girl, but if it is a boy, that would be a reason to establish a virtuous person.

Chen Yun has spiritual talent, and Chen Yun and Chen Xi had sex several years earlier than Zhen Mi. After all, as the personal maid of the master, it is normal for her to accompany him to bed. Fan Jian actually knows this, but Fan Jian doesn't feel any sense of danger towards Chen Yun, probably because he is used to it. In fact, logically speaking, Chen Yun is only less dangerous than Cai Zhaoji...

It's not that Chen Yun is infertile, she was just careful not to get pregnant before, and even if she did get pregnant, she wouldn't have an abortion. But Wu Yuan's incident made Chen Yun suddenly realize a lot of troubles. And with Chen Xi resting in the study and Chen Yun sleeping with him, she might get pregnant if she wasn't careful. So she had to run away before anything happened and become a mistress.

I will come back after I give birth to a daughter. If I give birth to a son, I will just start another family by myself. Anyway, I will not cause trouble to my wife and will just run away.

It was because of this that Chen Yun, who ran away quickly, realized that Cai Zhaoji was really smart. If she had airdropped into the Chen family, the backyard would have been just a few steps away from exploding. It would not have been like now, where Chen Yu occasionally brought Chen Si back, and Fan Jian was still happily feeding him like his own son.

For Fan Jian, anyone who dares to threaten his son's position as the head of the family is probably an enemy, so run away, run away quickly.

"So, you should be more careful and don't hold it in. Having a child doesn't mean you can't have spiritual talents. Win at the starting line? I'm afraid that before you win, there will be chaos in the courtyard." Zhang touched Zhen Mi's head and said with some emotion, "Anyway, think about it yourself."

On the other side, Yuan Shu took Zhen Yan to the restaurant and into a private room. He filled Zhen Yan's glass with fine wine and prepared delicious dishes. The three of them chatted and boasted for a while, and Zhen Yan's condition recovered a lot. Oh, there wasn't much to recover, this guy's condition had always been pretty good.

"Try this, this is a gift I prepared for you." Yuan Shu took a jar of sweet wine from the side and threw it to Zhen Yan, "Drink it and give me your opinion. I am planning to get involved in this business to make some money. I didn't expect you to be so miserable, so I decided to drag you along."

It was not just because Zhen Yan was so miserable that they decided to help Zhen Yan, but also because Zhen Yan had donated too much to them in the past, and they really needed a sales channel to sell the Li wine they produced. Although they could also put it on the shelves of the supply and marketing cooperative, they had to own it themselves, and Zhen Yan was very suitable.

Emperor Overlord has also been completed, and I am the only one left on the shelves at the same time. Everyone, please vote quickly. I am already ranked 70th, which is the lowest in history.
