Chapter Six, Brothers Descend

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

This Pu Liuruying disdainfully said: "Yang is a lowly surname of the Han people; we are noblemen of the Xianbei."

It is not good, you just scolded me loudly, and you have been lying in bed for so many days, mother has not accompanied me.

Amo was taken aback; his brother had never spoken to him like this before. Seeing Yang Tian's serious expression, which did not seem like a joke, he retracted his hands and feet that had reached out to the bed and pouted, saying: "Bro, what's wrong with you"

Amor then remembered that it seemed his elder brother had forgotten about the past, and quickly said: "Elder brother has never scolded me loudly, he always lets me have the things I like, whenever I do something that makes our parents angry, elder brother always keeps it from them, and also..."

Yang Tian had just woken up and did not wish to sleep any longer. However, seeing the little brat climbing onto his bed by himself, he felt displeased and shouted, "Get down!"

Xu Yinzong withdrew his hand from the pulse examination and turned to the Dugu lady, saying: "Madam, your son’s illness is likely a hysteria triggered by excessive stimulation, which is indeed a difficult matter to address"

At this moment, Yang Jian was also standing aside, feeling quite puzzled. Just an hour ago, he was very pleased with his son's transformation, but unexpectedly, his son and Tu Shuzi had changed so drastically in the blink of an eye. Upon hearing Xu Yinzong's words, Yang Jian immediately fixed a fierce gaze on the two maidservants attending to Yang Tian, asking, "What have you done to the young master?"

Amoleng stared blankly at the older brother and said, "Brother, you have changed."

Amoy was also in the room. Upon hearing these words, his extraordinary intelligence led him to guess that it must be something he said that provoked his elder brother. Seeing the unprecedented fury on his father's face, he immediately dared not admit it and could only shrink into the embrace of the Dugu clan.

Well, I finally heard a word of truth. Yang Tian felt that the previous gentle guidance was not in vain: "That brother asks you, besides this name 'Xian Di Fa', do you have any other names?"

"Brother, shall we go out together tomorrow?" Seeing that Yang Tian was ignoring him, Amo climbed onto Yang Tian's bed by himself and shook Yang Tian's arm.

Yes, everyone calls you Pu Liu Ru Yong

Ah Xiang and Ah Lan merely shook their heads; they indeed had not seen anyone appear in Yang Tian's room. They only saw the second young master hurriedly passing by in the corridor, but they could not direct their suspicions towards the second young master, otherwise they would be treated as the lady's personal maidservants and would be beaten to death.

Yang Tian was suddenly overwhelmed, as he distinctly remembered his father referring to himself as Yang Jian earlier in the afternoon. Could it be that he misheard? "Amo, aren't we surnamed Yang?"

"Pu Liu Ru Yong?" What kind of name is this? Yang Tian suspected that this little brat had made a mistake. "What about you?"

Although Yang Tian's nerves are coarse, the experience of dying and being reborn, coupled with the transformation into the body of a child, has already dealt him a blow. Now, realizing that he has become a Xianbei, this blow is even greater. If it were in later times, becoming a minority ethnic group would immediately allow one to enjoy various preferential policies from the state. However, this is clearly in ancient China, where wars between ethnic groups often meant life or death. Even if the Xianbei temporarily gained power, they could not maintain it for long. If they encountered a counterattack from the Han people, the entire ethnic group could face extinction. He understands that in later Chinese history, it seems that the Xianbei people have already vanished.

Yang Tian was sweating profusely, realizing that the previous owner of this body was indeed a good elder brother. Unfortunately, now that it was himself, he certainly could not endure such great grievances. He quickly prompted: "Second brother, do you think elder brother treats you well?"

Good

Yang Tian remained silent, his gaze vacant, truly resembling a fool. This situation was quickly noticed by the two returning maidservants, and the entire Duke's residence was immediately thrown into chaos. Xu Yinzong was invited back to Yang Tian's room.

Looking at the delicate little face of this second brother with his upturned mouth, as if he had committed a grave mistake, Yang Tian smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing, I'm just not used to others being on my bed"

Pu Liuru Jian thought for a moment; when he left, his son was still well, or perhaps something happened after his departure that provoked him. He immediately asked in a deep voice: "After I left, who else has seen Xian Di Fa?"

This news struck Yang Tian like a thunderclap, was this a joke? Clearly it was in Chinese, yet how did it become about the Xianbei people? Although he did not study history well, he knew that no powerful dynasty in later generations was entirely Xianbei. Even if there had been, it was quickly overthrown by the Han people. If he were to find himself in ancient China, even as the son of a duke, he would likely not live to see old age before being overthrown by the Han people.

Is that so? People always change as they grow up. Yang Tian suddenly remembered that he still had many unanswered questions, and this little brat in front of him was just presenting himself on a silver platter. What could he not ask him? He immediately changed to a smiling expression: "Then tell me, what was I like before?"

Amor has been feeling very distressed these days, not because he is worried about his elder brother's injury, but because he used to be the center of the family. Ever since his elder brother fell ill, even their mother, who used to dote on him, has been going to take care of his elder brother every day. Their father has scolded him several times in a row and even confined him to the house for the first time, forbidding him to go anywhere. Now, it is finally better; his elder brother has awakened, and he can return to his former life, going out every day with the family servants, and if anything happens, his elder brother will be there to support him.

Yang Tian let out a sound of "Hmm". Although this younger brother is cute and his body is that of a child, with his adult experience, he is simply unwilling to pay any attention to a little brat.

Dugu gently stroked Yang Tian's forehead, murmuring, "Why is this happening? Why is this happening?" If it were merely a matter of forgetting the past, it would be acceptable; however, now her son is clearly suffering from madness. If it cannot be cured, must she allow her son to descend into madness along with the books?

Yang Tian immediately relaxed his tone and called his second younger brother by his nickname: "Alright, Amo, let me ask you, was your elder brother good to you in the past"

This little brat really holds a grudge, Yang Tianxin thought, it turns out he blames me for lying in bed and taking away his parents' affection for him

Yang Tian suddenly acted as if possessed, startling Amo greatly. He looked at Yang Tian with some unease, fearing that Yang Tian might faint again. Not only would he have no one to play with, but he would also likely face blame. He hurriedly shook Yang Tian's hand, but Yang Tian showed no response. Feeling a bit guilty, Amo immediately abandoned Yang Tian and sneaked out.

Axiang and Alan were both taken aback and quickly knelt down: "We, the servants, have certainly not done anything to the young master; it was like this as soon as we entered."

My name is Pu Liuruying

"Xianbei people, Xianbei people, why am I a Xianbei person?" Yang Tian lay on the bed as if in a daze

Xu Yinzong felt a sense of despair as he took Yang Tian's pulse while carefully observing his face and eyes, realizing that he was now unable to extricate himself from the situation. He found it strange that this young master had been quite alert when he first woke up, yet within less than a day, his condition had deteriorated so significantly
