Chapter 883: What Great Ambitions Could There Be?

had been unconscious for many days. During that time, she kindly invited a doctor from the city to treat him."The doctors in town said this man was probably incurable and would have to lie there half...Zongpingchuan rushed to the Prime Minister's mansion with a bandage wrapped around his head before he had even fully recovered from his injuries.

Zong Tai Wen and Zong Tai Wu, both brothers, learned of this and rushed to their mother's side that very night.

Although the two brothers weren't particularly skilled in anything else, there was one thing they were absolutely certain about: despite bearing the Zong surname, they always considered themselves members of the Yuan family.

Back then, my maternal grandfather asked them to change one brother's surname to Yuan. My mother felt that this would make people in the capital gossip even more about her father, so she persuaded him against it for his sake.

Had they known their father had a wife and children in the countryside, the two brothers would have been better off changing their surname to Yuan back then.

"Mother, if you really are going to divorce Father, then my brother and I will both change our surname back to Yuan. Originally, Father was just like a son-in-law who married into the Yuan family anyway."

Yuan Xiangli glared fiercely at her youngest son lying on the bed.

"The matters of your parents are none of your concern. Look at your current state, has the imperial physician come today What did he say"

As soon as he mentioned his own problem, Zong Taiwu's face darkened.

"What else can be said."

He fell silent for a moment, then suddenly unleashed a torrent of curses.

"Fang Jinxiu, that bitch!"

She not only dared to scheme and frame me, but also caused my mother such shame in public, bringing disgrace upon our Minister's residence.

"Even if she really is the daughter-in-law of that country bumpkin's son, I'll make her pay!"

"If she ever falls into my hands, I swear I'll avenge our mother!"

Seeing her youngest son's angry face, Yuan Xiangli finally felt a little relieved.

Although her husband disappointed and hurt her deeply, at least their son was not raised in vain.

"You, you've become like this, and you're still concerned with what your mother is doing Compared to your father's problems, your mother is more worried about you."

Yuan Xiangli's gaze darkened, "Perhaps, we can ask your father to bring Fang Jinshu over to treat you."

"No matter what, you have to get your body healed first."

"Thai Wen, you better take Tai Wu back right away. Let's not tell your grandfather about this for now, otherwise..."

"Otherwise, what"

"Is there anything you won't let me know"

Before Yuan Xiangli could finish her words, a voice came from behind her—that of Yuan Buyu.

He had just left the court and hadn't even reached the palace gates when he heard a series of exciting stories about his daughter and son-in-law from yesterday.

Others naturally wouldn't dare to challenge the chancellor's authority, let alone Yuan Buyu, who remained calm throughout, not even showing a hint of anger.

Only he knew, his heart was not at peace.

Being in this position, many things are not as free and easy as outsiders might think. At least now, he can't just kill that Mu family member to avenge his daughter and clear her name.

Yuan Buyu walked over as the three people looked at him in alarm.

Yuan Xiangli hurriedly stood up, with the expression of someone who had done something wrong and been caught. She lowered her head and only dared to look at Yuan Buyu with her peripheral vision.

"Father, why have you returned home so early today"

Yuan Buyu sighed deeply, then sat down.

"If I don't come back, how do you plan to resolve the peace talks with Taiwu"

Yuan Xiangli had always been afraid to let her father know about her son's affairs. Suddenly hearing her father mention it, she felt a shiver run down her spine.

"Father, Tai Wu was just momentarily possessed by a demon. He isn't usually like this, Tai Wu has always been very diligent and hardworking."

Yuan Xiangli was afraid that her father would look down on her two sons and not want to take care of them.

If the Yuan family doesn't protect Taiwen and Taimu, their days in Beijing will be difficult afterward.

Yuan Buyu wouldn't fail to understand his daughter's feelings.

"Taiwu is my nephew, and you're my only daughter. Do you think I would ignore him"

When Taiwu heard this, his face was filled with emotion. He looked up and said flatteringly.

"Grandfather still loves Taiwu the most, his grandson will surely…"

Before he could finish his words, Yuan Buyu, with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, went on to say.

"Do you think I'm really so busy that I'm deaf and blind, unaware of what this mischievous little rascal has done in the capital"

Zong Taiwu immediately shrank his neck, too frightened to speak, and kept looking at his mother for reassurance.

"You've become too accustomed to Taiwu. I won't neglect his well-being. Once this matter is settled, I'll have him enter the Nanhu Camp for two years of training."

"After a period of absence, it's good to seek some official position."

"The grandson of a high-ranking official, spending his days with a group of idle young masters doing business, what great achievements could he possibly have"

Yuan Xiangli was overjoyed to learn that her father had made such thorough plans for Tai Wu long ago.

But Zong Taiwu's face turned pale. He still couldn't escape the hurdle of military camp training!posing. The servants of the Jing Wangfu treated them with utmost respect, and it was even Fu Guanjia himself who stood at the door to welcome them inside.The treatment was noticeably different from ot...
