Chapter 73 Chen Le's treatment and the secret shadow of the royal capital

"ah!"

The scalding tea just splashed onto the exposed skin.

Chen Le was in pain and wanted to stretch out his hands to scratch, but he could only roll on the ground and struggle while being restrained.

It looks a bit miserable.

Chen Nuo sat at the front seat, without even looking at Chen Le. He just made another cup of tea and handed it to his uncle with a calm expression.

The uncle's body trembled slightly and he looked at Chen Le with cloudy eyes.

An old voice squeezed out of his throat, "Chen Le, from today on, you are not allowed to leave the ancestral hall. Kneel here for me. When you admit your mistake, you will get up again."

As he said that, his uncle looked at Chen Nuo, with pleading in his eyes.

Chen Nuo, who understood what he meant, nodded.

He didn't care about it. He brought Chen Le back with the intention of letting his uncle handle it.

It was his uncle's business to deal with it no matter how he dealt with it. This was his respect for his uncle.

"No, grandpa, please, no, I'm going to have a family sooner or later, why can't you help me?"

The old man's cheek twitched.

He stood up suddenly, came down a few steps, and slapped Chen Le in the face.

Snapped!

"Why? You still have the nerve to ask why?"

"Do I know when you hooked up with someone?

Return one hundred taels of silver. Do you know how much one hundred taels of silver is? "

"Who is she? She is worth so much money. Do you have the ability to blackmail the patriarch and think that the family belongs to me?!"

"You are rebellious, do not distinguish between right and wrong, and are disobedient and unfilial. According to the clan rules, you should be beaten to death with thorns here!"

The old man stared angrily.

In fact.

Just as he said.

Chen Le's behavior was in accordance with the clan rules, and it was enough to be executed according to the family law.

Now just asking him to kneel here is already the result of his selfishness. If Chen Nuo hadn't given him some face, how could he kneel here?

pity.

The old man's painstaking care of his grandson seems to be of little use.

"Nonsense, nonsense! Don't lie to me!"

"Give me money first..."

Looking at his stubborn grandson, the old man's breathing became rapid and he felt like the world was spinning.

At this time, a finger pressed on an acupuncture point on the head and rubbed it gently.

The dizziness gradually eased.

"Uncle, don't be too angry. It's not worth it."

"Yongzi, leave him there and hold him down. You are not allowed to feed him today."

"Okay Brother Nuo."

Chen Yong clenched his fist, picked up Chen Le like a chicken, threw him to a corner of the ancestral hall, pushed him down, knelt on the ground, and let out bursts of wailing.

Chen Nuo helped the old man to the old man's home.

Sitting on the chair, the old man's eyes were a little distracted.

"Arnold, tell me why people have changed so much."

While helping to chop firewood for the old man, Chen Nuo said, "People are different. Some people are born with it, while others are affected by their environment and education."

“Nature and nurture?”

The old man muttered to himself.

Thinking of my son and daughter-in-law who died young, I also remembered that due to limited financial resources, I did not ask my husband to teach my grandson, so I had to do it myself. And I was still busy with family affairs. I could only go home at night, and when I returned home, he was often strict. one side……

When did that clever and well-behaved child change?

Is it when you don’t like to talk?

Or when you were bullied by others?

Or when you are often at home alone?

"..."

The old man looked into the distance with blank eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Chen Nuo helped chop firewood and started cooking.

Farm children, even if they are pampered by their parents and mainly study medicine and study, they can still cook and work.

Glancing at his uncle, Chen Nuo shook his head.

This wasn't something he could fix.

etc.

It seems possible?

Chen Nuo was stunned.

…

Ancestral hall.

Chen Le, who had been kneeling for a day, was in a daze.

His heart was full of resentment and eagerness.

Cainiang still doesn’t know that I was captured and brought back to the village... Cainiang must be very anxious... I have to find a way to escape...

But...so hungry...so thirsty...

"water……"

"Here, here it is."

A bowl of water was handed over.

Chen Le was shocked. Being restrained, he leaned his mouth against the edge of the bowl like a dog and licked it with his head lowered.

"Chen, Chen Nuo?"

After drinking the water, he looked at the five people in surprise.

Chen Nuo smiled slightly.

"Make a deal."

"Don't you really want to marry that woman named Cainiang?"

"You, do you want to give me money?" Chen Le looked at Chen Nuo tightly.

"That's just kidding. I don't have the habit of paying for licking dogs. I mean, you don't want anything to happen to your Cainiang, right?"

? ? ?

What... is he talking about?

Chen Le looked at Chen Nuo dumbly.

"To expose your weakness so easily, you are saying that you, such a big person, are still like a child, which means you are the grandson of my great-uncle, otherwise? Haha."

Chen Nuo has quite the temperament of a villain at the moment, and what he said fits perfectly.

Obviously Chen Nuo is only fifteen, while Chen Le is already nineteen years old, but now, the two of them seem to be the other way around.

Chen Nuo's face turned cold, "Okay, if you stay in the village, respect your uncle and his uncle, and don't do anything annoying, I can help you marry that Cainiang, otherwise..."

"Okay, okay, I, I will listen to you. Don't hurt Cai Niang, don't hurt her, she is just a weak woman."

"I will let you go tomorrow morning, just keep kneeling tonight." After saying that, Chen Nuo stepped out of the ancestral hall.

This is the solution he came up with.

However, whether he will help Chen Le marry that woman is another matter.

First of all.

Go to the city to help develop the medical business, and check that woman by the way.

See what kind of woman made this man so crazy.

...

Just when Chen Nuo was busy with the family's internal affairs.

Yue State, Ouyue County.

The capital - Ouyue City.

As a country with the same origin as Xia State, but split off, even if it is only one state now, its architectural style is very similar to that of Xia State.

Magnificent and majestic.

Gorgeous and simple coexist.

In a sense, this is a work of art.

However, under the stone bricks of these works of art, there are countless bones buried.

This royal city is extremely prosperous, with a total of 500,000 people living in it!

In this center of power, a dramatic change is taking place that no one knows about.

On the gorgeous throne.

The old king's eyes are dull.

In the shadowy darkness behind him, cold and stiff voices, like those of a dead person, sounded.

"Time is up."

"The country is corrupt, and the supply of high-end blood food is insufficient."

"Overdue three times, low value."

"The clans are numerous, resources are consumed seriously, and value is wasted."

"Yue State can no longer fulfill its supply responsibilities, and a new dynasty should be established."

"Agree."

"Agree."

"Agree."

"Execute the assignment to those little guys."

"Yue State perished two years later, and the country lasted for 271 years, not more than three hundred."

The voice that seemed to be a verdict sounded in this empty hall.
