248 Knowing the Truth


Su Cheng was confused. “I know my name is good, but you don’t have to do this. After all, you’re from the capital. Can you act like you’ve seen the world?”


Qin Canglan did not know how he left Pear Blossom Lane.


Spring rain began to fall. He walked awkwardly in the rain, oblivious to the oil-paper umbrella held above his head.


“Old Duke? Why are you here? It’s raining heavily. Didn’t you bring a servant?”


!!


The servant of the Marquis of Zhenbei held an umbrella for him.


He was so tall that the servant had to stand on his tiptoes.


“Is your Marquis around?”


“Yes, yes!” The servant hurriedly said, “Are you going to visit the Marquis? I’ll get you a big umbrella first!”


Qin Canglan did not say anything. He pushed him away and resolutely walked into the rain.


The servant chased after him. “Old Duke! Old Duke!”


Boom!


A deafening explosion resounded in the rainy sky. The servant felt that his eardrums had been blown apart.


Lightning and thunder flashed. The world flickered, and even the ground seemed to be trembling.


The servant did not dare to chase after him.


It was important to entertain guests, but his life was more important!


The servant hid in the pavilion.


The rain suddenly became heavier. He could vaguely see a tall figure stumbling in the heavy rain.


It was unknown if it was because the ground was too slippery or if he was in a daze.


He fell heavily, the mud wrapping around him.


He wiped his face and got up with both hands. Then, he slipped again.


The servant did not count how many times the Old Duke had slipped. He could feel the embarra.s.sment and urgency on the Old Duke.


This man had protected Great Zhou for half his life; he was a general who seemed to be able to fight on the battlefield for his entire life. At this moment, he only had the hobble and hunch of an old man.


The Old Marquis had just finished his medicine.


Physician Fu took his pulse and blood pressure. He said that he was recovering well and could get out of bed in three to five days.


Clang!


The door was slammed open and a man covered in mud and rain barged in.


He was taller and stronger than ordinary men. Coupled with his domineering aura, he scared the stethoscope out of Physician Fu’s hand!


The Old Marquis was very calm.


He looked at Qin Canglan cunningly and said to Physician Fu, “Go back to your room and rest for a while.”


Physician Fu looked at the fierce Qin Canglan and stammered, “Is… is this really fine?”


This person looked so fierce!


“It’s fine. Go,” the Old Marquis said.


Physician Fu could only go, but he was really worried about the Old Marquis. He did not return to his room but went to Su Mo’s courtyard in the rain.


The Old Marquis said to Little Quanzi, “Clothes.”


Qin Canglan panted. “There’s no need!”


The Old Marquis said, “Leave.”


Little Quanzi went out and only the two of them were left in the room.


The two of them had known each other since they were young for decades. They had personally seen each other transform from inexperienced youths to veterans on the battlefield.


They had witnessed each other’s glory and experienced each other’s difficulties.


They watched as the other party aged bit by bit. When they suddenly looked back, their youth was already gone.


They had also gone against each other and lived their own lives.


But no matter what, as long as they could still breathe, they would always have a common bond—Su Huayin.


The Old Marquis said, “You’re in such a hurry to see me because you saw that child, right?”


Generals were not as scheming as civil officials, but that did not mean that they were brainless.


If he was really not shrewd at all, he could not lead the army to war with just a little brute force.


“You brought them to the capital?”


Qin Canglan had asked Su Cheng where they were from and why they had come to the capital.


The Old Marquis did not think that there was anything to hide.


“It was me,” he said.


Qin Canglan frowned and said, “Su Shuo, what do you mean by this? Finding two people similar to Qin Che and Hua Yin… What are you trying to do!”


The Old Marquis looked at him indifferently. “Qin Canglan, are they really just similar? I could see Hua Yin’s shadow the first time I saw them. Can you really not tell?”


Qin Canglan raised his voice. “That’s why I asked you what you want to do!”


The Old Marquis said, “Qin Canglan, that child is your flesh and blood with Huayin.”


The child he was talking about was Su Cheng.


...


Regardless of whether Su Cheng was already a father or not, in their eyes, he was still the child from back then.


“Grandfather.”


Su Mo’s voice appeared outside the door.


The Old Marquis glanced at Qin Canglan. Qin Canglan’s back was facing the light, and his entire face was covered in shadows. Only the rain on his body could be heard dripping to the ground.


“Come in,” the Old Marquis said.


Su Mo pushed open the door. A strong wind mixed with heavy rain poured in. Su Mo’s clothes were also wet, and the hair at his temples stuck to his young and handsome face.


When Physician Fu went to look for him and told him that a fierce and terrifying uninvited guest had come to the residence, Su Mo had more or less guessed it.


The progress of the matter was not as expected. It was unknown which step accelerated the process. In short, it was much faster than the original plan.


Fortunately, the Marquis of Zhenbei had made full preparations from the beginning.


Qin Canglan said in a daze, “Do you know what you’re saying? I don’t remember having a second child with Huayin…”


The Old Marquis sighed. “Qin Canglan, you already have the answer in your heart, right? You’re just here to verify it with me. Alright, Mo’er, bring them in.”


...


“Yes, Grandpa,” Su Mo agreed respectfully. He turned around and said to the door, “Come in.”


Qin Canglan turned around and looked out the door.


In the heavy rain, a grandfather and grandson entered in a sorry state. One of them was old, and the other was about the same age as Su Mo.


The two of them were none other than Old Master Su and his eldest grandson, Su Dalang.


Qin Canglan looked at the two of them in a daze. “They are…”


The Old Marquis said, “The right pendant of Huayin is on you.”


“…Yes.”


After Qin Che returned to the residence, he gave him the jade pendant.


The Old Marquis looked at Old Master Su and Su Dalang coldly. “Since you are here, come and identify yourself. Is the jade pendant in the Old Duke’s hand the one your Su family stole from Su Cheng back then and sold?”



The rain poured.


The rain came in a hurry. The three children did not stay at home obediently and ran out to step on the puddles.


Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou were making snacks in the kitchen while Su Cheng went to catch the three of them.


Tsk!


Dahu stepped into the small mud pit.


Su Cheng took Dahu away.


Erhu went to step on it again.


When Erhu finished stepping, Xiaohu took his turn.


After Xiaohu finished stepping, Dahu came back for seconds.


Su Cheng was fl.u.s.tered. It was not easy for him to fish all three little fellows in. The eldest and the three little ones were drenched. The entire family was drenched.


Which family didn’t have brats?


However, they had a nest of bears!


Su Cheng helped the three of them change their clothes and dry their hair. His face was dark the entire time.


However, the three children were not afraid of him at all. They shook their heads and made faces, extremely arrogant.


Su Cheng said, “Hmph, when your father comes back, I’ll let him deal with you!”


As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.


Su Cheng immediately threatened, “Your father is back! Let’s see how you escape today.”


The three little fellows immediately covered their b.u.t.ts and went to the kitchen.


Mother!


Help…


Su Cheng opened the door with an umbrella.


However, it was not Wei Ting who appeared in the heavy rain, but Qin Canglan.


Qin Canglan ran all the way in the rain. Who knew how many times he fell? He was no longer a drenched chicken, but a drenched beggar’s chicken.


Su Cheng was surprised. “Uh… Uncle Qin? Why are you at my house so late?”


His internal monologue was: I exerted a lot of self-control to resist extorting you. Don’t come knocking on my door again…


Qin Canglan’s eyes were red, and the corners of his bloodshot mouth trembled slightly.


Su Cheng muttered, “Do you think you are very scary?”


What kind of look was that?


It was as if he was going to eat him at any moment—


Su Cheng took a small step to the left.


Qin Canglan’s throat was swollen and painful. Hot tears flowed out of his eyes and mixed with the cold rain.


He reached out shakily to Su Cheng and touched his face.


It had been thirty years…


His child…


This was thirty years late—


Su Cheng’s eyes darted around as he quietly grabbed the stick by the door.


Su Cheng jumped up!


“Ha!”


With this stern shout, Su Cheng hit Qin Canglan’s head with his club, knocking him down!


For Dahu’s sake, he had tolerated this guy for a long time!


This guy grabbed his wrist during the day. He had yet to settle scores with him, but now, in the middle of the night, he actually came to touch him…


Pervert!


He, the dignified bully of Apricot Flower Village, had earned his reputation through his own ability!


Su Xiaoxiao walked out. “Dad, what happened?”


Su Cheng pointed at the ground angrily. “This old fellow! He touched my face and I knocked him out!”


Su Xiaoxiao recognized Qin Canglan as he lay with his eyes closed.


Wasn’t this the old Protector Duke, Qin Canglan?


Her father was the first person in the Great Zhou to dare to knock on Qin Canglan with a club. The gra.s.s on his grave was already two meters tall.


Wait, what did her father say just now?


Qin Canglan touched his face.


Could it be that Qin Canglan had already…
