FSC [QT] Chapter 97.2

These three adopted sons were all chosen by Yan Zhongying after they had already emerged in the palace. It seemed that after three failed experiences, Yan Zhongying chose to select his successor from the young eunuchs who were still ignorant.

That was how Xiao Yuzi was valued.

It was from Xiao Yuzi that Yu Yan saw the change in Yan Zhongying’s attitude.

Compared to the eunuchs who were already quite scheming and could not be trained, he seemed to prefer this group of young eunuchs who might have a scheming mind but had not been polished in the deep palace.

Since Xiao Yuzi could do it, why couldn’t he?

So, he stepped on the other party to get to the top and let Yan Zhongying see him.

This palace didn’t need little white rabbits. Yu Yan, who was cruel enough, smart enough, and had not yet recognized any master, would be Yan Zhongying’s best choice.

He wanted to raise a wolf, and Yu Yan’s cruel and ruthless methods were the best wolf cubs. He wanted to raise a Gu¹蛊, Gǔ​: arch. legendary venomous insect / to poison / to bewitch / to drive to insanity / to harm by witchcraft / intestinal parasite. , and Yu Yan could also do as he wished, devour all the Gu worms and evolve into his most handy Gu King.

Yan Zhongying named him Yan Yu, which was a treatment that few adopted sons had not received before.

It could be seen that he won the bet. Compared with adopted sons who were easy to control but had no means, he preferred to train a challenging person into a puppet.

“Huh…”

Yu Yan closed the door and then he leaned against the door and slid to the ground, feeling weak.

Although he had made sufficient preparations, he was still timid when facing Yan Zhongying.

Although he pretended well, the cold sweat on his back that soaked through several layers of his clothes could not deceive anyone.

That man was very terrifying. His eyes were like an evil ghost ready to devour people at any time.

In the future, he might become the second Yan Zhongying.

Yu Yan was a little panicked. He had obviously expected this a long time ago, but when everything developed as he planned, he was a little scared.

“Xiao Wu.”

Eight years had passed. Even if he thought about her every day, his sister’s face began to become blurred. He could no longer remember her appearance clearly.

Yu Yan was very scared. He was afraid that one day he would not even remember his sister.

That day might be the day when Yu Yan completely disappeared from this world, and Yan Yu replaced him.

“Nanny, what do you think of my outfit today? Is it decent?”

Since she received the letter sent by the guards yesterday and learned that her biological daughter would be able to arrive in the capital today, Mrs. Fan had been a little restless.

Last night, she stayed up all night to decorate the Chuzhen Courtyard prepared for her daughter.

She moved some good things from her and her husband Ling Yaodong’s private treasury there and changed the layout again and again until Nanny Fan couldn’t stand it anymore and urged her to go back to her own yard to rest.

But Mrs. Fan couldn’t fall asleep at all. She got up at dawn the next day and chose the clothes for her first meeting with her daughter today.

She was always worried that the makeup was not gentle enough and the clothes were not dignified enough, which would leave a bad impression on her daughter.

“Eldest Madam and Young Lady’s blood is thicker than water. Not to mention that Eldest Madam’s outfit today is perfect, even if Eldest Madam is wearing coarse linen clothes now, Young Lady will like Eldest Madam.”

Nanny Fan had repeated these words to comfort her several times.

“Young Lady grew up in the countryside, and her adoptive parents died young. I am afraid that she has had no one to educate her since she was a child. In terms of etiquette, she is far inferior to other young ladies in the house, perhaps even worse than a maid. Would Eldest Madam dislike such a young lady?”

Seeing that Eldest Madam was particularly unconfident, Nanny Fan asked again.

“Of course not.”

Mrs. Fan replied without thinking.

As early as she knew the truth, she was prepared for her biological daughter to grow up in the countryside, have inappropriate etiquette, and act in a petty manner.

This could not be blamed on the child.

The living environment she grew up in did not provide her with a good etiquette education. Her vision and tolerance might not be as good as those of girls who were strictly taught by gentry and aristocrats.
