Chapter 232 Delicious Heart of True Love 6

Xia Ziwei is a person who doesn't have any precautions, not to mention that because of a bowl of hot soup, her affection for Pinhui is greatly increased. It is raining heavily outside, and the warmth given by strangers in the temple moved this girl who has never traveled far. He sold out his details.

"... 19 years ago, my father went to Jinan to visit Daming Lake. When it rained heavily, he went to Xia's house to take shelter from the rain... Later, Xiaozuo became a small residence. He and my mother fell in love with each other and promised each other for life, but he I have to go back to Beijing first if I have something to do, I promised to come pick up my mother, but..."

Pinhui's heart skipped a beat when she heard this: She decided to live her life privately, and the womb was secretly knotted, this Xia Ziwei is an illegitimate daughter!

Pin Hui was puzzled: "Then your grandpa and grandma didn't stop you?"

"My grandma and grandpa are probably also happy to see the success." Ziwei heard it from Xia Yuhe. In her opinion, the elders are happy to see the success of their parents' feelings, but in the eyes of rational people, There are more meanings here.

Ziwei was depressed, and said: "Grandpa was a noble person, he couldn't bear the blow, and died of illness not long after. A few years later, grandma passed away too, and the family didn't care about us. My mother told me all this before she died, and hoped that I would When I was able to go to Beijing to find my father, my mother said: "After waiting for a lifetime, hating for a lifetime, resenting for a lifetime, and thinking about it for a lifetime, I am still grateful to God for letting me have this person whom I can wait for, hate, resent, and think about. Otherwise, Life will be a dry well, with no interest in life'. I must fulfill my mother's last wish, go and ask him personally on my mother's behalf, if he still remembers Xia Yuhe by the Daming Lake 19 years ago."

...Pin Hui only felt her teeth sore, she didn't know what to say for a while, and her mind was full of "a lifetime, a lifetime".

It's true, Xia Ziwei's mother was murdered by that man all her life.

This woman is also stupid, she has filled it in her whole life, and still can't let it go.

Although I think this girl is a bit stupid, but Pin Hui is no longer the wife of the Zhan family, and Junsi has not lost the slightest bit to her along the way. There is also a bit of an old lady's spectrum.This is a high-ranking person in power. Facing such a delicate and weak woman, he always has a little sympathy, or maybe he wants to show a sense of superiority.

Idle is also idle, Pinhui asked: "Listening to what you said, your father who has never met is probably a person of extraordinary status. Even if you go to the capital, how are you going to find him? Not me Throwing cold water on you, you don't know the horror of a rich family, if you go to the door with a big thorn, I'm afraid it won't work. Your father must have another wife in the capital, and suddenly a daughter who recognizes his relatives appears, even if your father is willing Recognize, can the rest of the family be willing?"

"Let's go find Tai..." Xia Ziwei was about to say "Taichang Temple", when Jin Suo tugged her.

The two girls' eyes were darkened, and they didn't understand anything. They heard about such a "Taichang Temple" from Master Gu, the teacher, and they were in charge of the etiquette of the ancestral temple, so they planned to go to Taichang Temple.Where did they think about anything else, they just thought that they went to see the adults in the yamen, told the story, delivered the token, and reported to the officials, wouldn't they meet Emperor Qianlong?

"Too what?" Pinhui didn't hear clearly.

"I mean, I have to go no matter what." Maybe Pinhui didn't have the ability to impress people like Little Swallow, at least she couldn't make Ziwei give up all her defenses, so Ziwei didn't say that her biological father was Qianlong.

Pinhui is not a person who doesn't know the world, so she didn't ask any more questions when she saw this.

Since they were both going to Beijing, Pinhui simply invited the two of them to go with them. Ziwei and Jinsuo were very grateful.

If you want to go together, you must introduce the people around you. Pinhui pointed to the two people opposite and said: "This is my son Zhan Yunxiang, and Tao Taoist Priest is our mother and son's lifesaver."

Ziwei bowed her body and bowed: "Young Master Zhan, Daoist Taoist."

Tao Shuobai sat cross-legged on the mat, restrained her breath, and did not disturb the obsession in the calligraphy and painting.Jun Si prefers to stay in the carriage, but it is different from ordinary people. After all, after sitting in the carriage for a day, he always gets off to loosen his muscles and bones.He didn't shy away from it, pretended to be tired, and leaned on Tao Shuobai's body, showing a sense of laziness.

These two are young men with outstanding looks and different temperaments.

This way, Pinhui had seen many of them like this, so she was used to it, but Xia Ziwei and Jinsuo were surprised, but they didn't dare to ask more questions.

Early the next morning, the sky cleared and the group set off.

Arrived in the capital smoothly.

When they saw the gate of the capital, the two Ziwei Jinsuo wept with joy.

Uncle Mu has already set up the house, and when he gets the letter, he waits at the gate of the city.Embarrassed to bother others, Xia Ziwei declined Pinhui's invitation, and went to find a hotel with Jinsuo.

Pinhui and the maid beside her, Xiangcao, shook their heads and sighed: "I think it's difficult for this girl to admit her relatives."

Vanilla smiled and said: "If you want to talk about it, the mother and daughter of the Xia family are too stupid. That father is clearly a liar. He hasn't picked up anyone for 19 years. He must have forgotten him."

"Oh, men are like this. They coax people with sweet words, but they forget about it when they turn around." Pinhui thought of Zhan Zuwang, and when she was young and was favored, she was really unwilling.

The land in the capital is very expensive, but you are not stingy at all when Junsi spends money. You bought a big house, mainly to keep you far away from Pinhui.The location of the house is also good. It is said that the previous head of the household was a big businessman, and the business could not be turned around for a while, so he wanted to change hands of the house.

When Pinhui saw such a big house, it was even more grand and beautiful than the Zhan's house in Tongcheng, and it was still a house in the capital, she immediately felt elated, her face became brighter, she just wished she could show off in front of Wei Mengxian's mother and son, and vent her anger!

A dozen or so servants entered the mansion, all of them were purchased with dead contracts, except for those who were on duty in the kitchen, garden, porter, etc., most of them were assigned to Pin Hui.Pinhui used to be served by a girl, and bought another girl on the way, but now she has seven or eight girl servants, not counting as rough envoys who are in charge of her travels.

Pinhui was both happy and worried. What's the point of losing her son on even the best days?

She was worried about her son, but she didn't dare to reveal it. Now that she had reached this point, she couldn't bear it any longer.

"Vanilla, where does the young master live?" Pin Hui asked.

"The young master lives in Zhuohua Residence, next to the back garden."

"Go and have a look." As soon as Pinhui left, Xiangcao supported her, and there were two behind her, which was really unexpected before.

Walking through the corridor and crossing the bridge, there are flowers and trees, and you can really feel the size of the house.Except in the courtyard on Pinhui's side, where there are many people, it seems lively, other places are very quiet, especially near the garden, where the flowers, plants, trees, pools, rockery, pavilions, pavilions and pavilions are arranged ingeniously, making it look very spacious and very quiet.After passing through a moon gate, you will be faced with green bamboo forests everywhere. Along the cobblestone road, winding paths lead to seclusion, and you will find Zhuohua Residence.

This Zhuohua residence has buildings, pavilions, corridors, and water, and there are so many flowers and plants, most of Pinhui can't name it, but think this place is really good.

In the pavilion by the water, Tao Shuobai is playing chess with Jun Si, and there is no one around.

Apart from Uncle Mu, they easily forbid anyone to enter this Zhuohua residence, mainly for the sake of freedom.

Pinhui also had a faint feeling that the other party deliberately separated her from her.

"You stay outside, you don't have to follow." Pinhui left the vanilla and walked into the pavilion nervously.

Jun Si didn't know the purpose of the other party's visit, and it was not easy for Pin Hui to bear it until now, so they didn't get up and didn't greet her.

Pinhui found that her lips seemed to weigh a thousand catties, and her breathing was not involuntarily increased. She gritted her teeth and asked her doubts: "You, who are you? Where is my son? Where is Yunxiang?"

Jun Si smiled: "Didn't Taoist Taoist tell you a long time ago?"

"What?" Pinhui was puzzled, and looked at Tao Shuobai who was wearing a Taoist robe.

Tao Shuobai opened his mouth and said: "I told you at that time that your son's coma is due to the disease of losing one's soul."

"Dementia..."

"The so-called loss of soul is the loss of the soul. If the soul does not come back, there will be only an empty body, and it will never wake up, and it will die sooner or later."

Pinhui fell to the ground and burst into tears: "My Yunxiang!"

"He's not dead." As soon as Tao Shuo's vernacular words came out, the successful Pin Hui stopped crying.

"Not dead?" Pinhui asked blankly.

"His soul hasn't collapsed, it's good luck."

"Do you want your son to come back?" Before Tao Shuobai could finish speaking, Jun Si took over the voice, the words were casual but full of temptation.

Pin Hui quickly said: "I want to! Of course I want to! Please, let Yun Xiang come back. As long as Yun Xiang can come back, I can do whatever you want."

"It's very simple. The so-called sincerity leads to success."

"Sincerity leads to spirit..." Pinhui didn't understand at first, but soon realized: "I will definitely be sincere in the future, burn incense and pray in the morning and evening, and pray for the mercy of the Bodhisattva."

Tao Shuobai comforted him: "Don't worry, your son is in the capital, and when the time is right, he will come back. We are just passers-by and won't stay for long."

Pinhui didn't know whether to believe it or not, but she had no choice.What's more, she only had awe and fear towards these two people, but she didn't dare to resent. If Yun Xiang's soul is not in her body as they said, she should thank them for keeping Yun Xiang "alive".Now she only prays that the two of them will keep their word and reunite their mother and child as soon as possible.

If we talk about the current situation of Zhan Yunxiang, it is very interesting, he is actually possessed in Qianlong's body.

It's a pity that Qianlong is the emperor. Although Zhan Yunxiang was possessed by luck, he has been in a state of being suppressed all the time. He can only passively accept external information, just like a bystander in the scene.

What's more interesting is that Wang Luping is also in a similar situation. She possesses the queen, but is suppressed by the luck of the mother of a country.

Tao Shuobai is not in a hurry to pay attention to the capital, but Tongcheng has not let up.

Sure enough, half a month later, a major event happened in Tongcheng, and Zhan Zuwang died.

It is impossible for people who are far away in the capital to get the news so quickly. Although the Zhan family knows that "Yun Xiang" has gone to the capital, the mountains are high and the road is far away.Compared with the capital, Tongcheng is really too small. Even if the Zhan family is a famous family in Tongcheng, they are ordinary outsiders in the capital. It is so easy to find someone.What's more, when such a big event happened, the Zhan family was in a mess, and they didn't even think to inform the second young master who left home at the first time.

When it comes to Wang Zhanzu's death, it was because he was stimulated and was too emotional for a while, so he couldn't catch his breath.

Zhan Zhanzu cares about the foundation of the Zhan family, and the eldest son Yunfei.

Yun Fei is not a qualified businessman, not even a qualified son, he is completely different from Zhan Zuwang, even without Yun Xiang playing tricks, the father and son would not be able to get along for two days.

Zhan Zuwang handed over the business to Yunfei, and Yunfei forgave many people's debts, although some people really couldn't afford to repay, but more people were crying poor and selling out.Yunfei gained a good reputation as a good person, but the bank collapsed.

To open a bank, to put it bluntly, means money begets money.

The exhibitor has put out a large amount of capital and has a huge foundation here, so that people can trust and are willing to deposit money.The money deposited is dead money. If you want to revitalize the money, you have to lend it out again to earn interest, or use it to do other businesses, and the more money you spend, the more you spend.

In the past, although Zhan Yunxiang was ruthless in demanding debts and gained a notoriety as a solo exhibition night owl, the people in Tongcheng subconsciously still trusted the Zhan Family Bank.

But now, Yunfei has done a great good deed, making the bank's turnover difficult, and the clerk's wages cannot be paid.Originally, relying on the foundation of the Zhan family, this would not be the case, but many people saw that Yunfei was soft-hearted and easy to deceive, and they all expressed their difficulties.Yunfei is not stupid, and he doesn't believe that everyone will pay back the money, but he can't continue to force him, and he also thinks that doing Yunxiang's behavior for a little money is too much, and Xiao Yujuan is eccentric, debt-free There are more and more people, and the amount is getting bigger and bigger.

Xiao Yujuan ran against Yunfei because she wanted the Zhan family to lose money and to show her anger.

But Zheng Shida, who was standing behind Xiao Yujuan, had even bigger plans. When the whole city, whether true or false, praised the eldest son of the Zhan family as a good person, he began to spread rumors that the Zhan family had lost a lot in a business investment in other places. , need to fill thousands of silver.

During the Qianlong period, silver was very valuable. For ordinary peasant households, it was not bad to earn one or two taels of silver a year, and dozens of taels was a huge sum of money.

Under the deliberate spread of rumors, and the association of Zhan Dashan’s non-stop debt relief, people who saved money in the bank panicked and started queuing up day and night to ask for their deposits to be withdrawn. They were afraid that the Zhan family bank would go bankrupt and they worked hard The money saved was wasted.If a small number of people come to withdraw money, the bank can still handle it, but how can the bank withstand so many people?All the money from the bank is invested!

Manager Ji reported it to Yunfei, but Yunfei felt that it was only natural to withdraw money and should not stop him.

Manager Ji said with a headache: "Young Master, the bank doesn't have enough money to withdraw."

"This is a big deal. Whether it is to appease those people or to maintain the reputation of the Zhan family, we have to give them money. If there is not enough money in the bank, we will withdraw it from the account at home, and then see if there is any money in other businesses. Turn over a little bit." Yunfei said.

Director Ji's mouth moved, but he didn't say anything.

Turning around, Manager Ji went to find Zhan Zuwang.

"Qian Zhuang, Qian Zhuang..." Zhan Zuwang had already quarreled with Yun Fei and almost severed his father-son relationship. Now that he heard the bad news, he knew that the matter was serious, and the entire Zhan family's century-old foundation might be ruined like this.But because of the seriousness of the matter, he couldn't accept it for a while, and was greatly stimulated, so he died like this.

Wei Mengxian was terminally ill, she thought she would die first, so she always planned for Yunfei and tried her best to ease the relationship between father and son, but now...

"I always knew that the master was not in good health, but who knew that we would leave our mother and son behind so soon." Wei Mengxian burst into tears, then looked at Manager Ji, hinting: "Manager Ji, you are an old man of the Zhan family. , I have been with the master for many years. In terms of loyalty, no one is as good as you. You have to take care of the master's funeral. After the master leaves, Yunfei and I will be left in the Zhan family. Yunfei is still young, and she has to rely on Director Ji to take care of her .”

Mr. Ji is so shrewd, he couldn't understand what the eldest lady meant.

The wife's words are all good words, and she is promising him benefits. Since he has given benefits, he must have something to ask for.

Sure enough, Wei Mengxian asked: "You were the only one before the master left. Do you have anything to say? Did you leave calmly when you left?"

"...Returning to Madam, I am routinely reporting to the master. The master is in a good mood, but the old illness came suddenly, so I didn't leave much to say." Mr. Ji is very knowledgeable about current affairs. At first, he was worried that he would not be able to stay in Zhan's house for a long time, but now It seems that there is no need to worry.It's just that according to the temperament of the young master, this Zhan family probably won't last long.

After hearing his answer, Wei Mengxian felt relieved.

If it is said that she promised Mr. Ji benefits, it is not for other reasons, but it is afraid that the real cause of Zhan Zuwang's death will be unfavorable to Yunfei.After all, Yunfei is in charge of the bank, and now that something happened to the bank, Zhan Zuwang was pissed to death, if outsiders knew about it, who would know how to organize it?Apart from other things, it is very detrimental to Yunfei's marriage.

Some time ago, Wei Mengxian wanted Xiao Yufeng to come in as a concubine, but she was rejected, and even scolded by that Xiao Yujuan, it couldn't be more embarrassing.That's all, but Yunfei quarreled with her when he knew about it, saying that he wanted to marry Yufeng as his wife, and if the family didn't agree, he wouldn't come back.

Wei Mengxian had expected that Yunfei would be stubborn, but she was scolded and scolded by her son, not to mention how bitter she was.

Now Zhan Zuwang's death may be a good thing, his father has been filial piety for three years.

Three years is not short, even if Yunfei still has that enthusiasm, can the girl from the Xiao family wait without hope?

The clan didn't raise any objection to Zhan Zuwang's death, but they said they would notify the second young master, even if they separated, they would still be descendants of the Zhan family, so how could they not notify of his father's funeral?But it is hot today, and the coffin cannot be suspended for too long. It takes a lot of time to come and go in the capital, so the coffin is still suspended for seven days before burial.

It has been more than a month since Junsi received the funeral report from Tongcheng Zhanjia, and the person who came to report the funeral was Ji Tianyao.

Ji Tianyao's journey to the capital was smooth, but it took several days to find someone in the capital, and finally he found out where the second young master lived after spending some money.Seeing that the Zhan family's mansion in the capital is not inferior in size to the Zhan's mansion in Tongcheng, and Tongcheng is a county, how can it be as prosperous as the capital?

Entering the mansion, Ji Tianyao went to greet Pinhui, and was really shocked by the scene in Pinhui Courtyard.

Ji Tianyao couldn't help thinking, if the younger sister hadn't been stupid, wouldn't she be enjoying the blessings with the second young master now?How is it like now, staying on Zhuangzi all day, crying at first, and then simply living the days of evening drums and morning bells.If she really planned to live a peaceful life by eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha, he would only feel sorry for her, but, she had no clear connection with the young master.

It turned out that Yunfei went to see Tianhong twice because he was worried about Tianhong's life.

Their relationship is already sensitive, and now that Ji Tianhong is married to a divorced wife, he has to pay more attention to his reputation, but they maintain their innocence and don't care much about their actions.Maybe Ji Tianhong is aware of the horror of gossip now, but she is not worried about herself, she is worried about Yunfei, and even persuaded Yunfei not to go again, lest Xiao Yufeng misunderstand.

Although Xiao Yufeng and Yunfei have been arguing on and off, but they always have him in their hearts, knowing about Ji Tianhong, how can they not mind?There is also Xiao Yujuan who is eager for them to break up completely, fanning the flames, which makes Xiao Yufeng's suspicions grow bigger and bigger.

Jun Si didn't care about Tongcheng's love entanglements, and he had already left Ji Tianhong behind. He was only worried about leaving the capital.

With Zhan Yunxiang's identity now, when Zhan Zuwang died, he not only had to go back to the funeral, but also had to observe filial piety, at least it was not easy to leave during the Hundred Days of Filial Piety.Of course, he can use spells to deceive the world, but Tao Shuobai wants him to stay in Tongcheng and come back after dealing with the soul of true love.

The soul of true love has no body, and besides this, there is another quality. When it chooses a target, it cannot be found until the target or the hearts of true love around the target have not been fully conceived, unless the target and all related people are separated. If you kill it, you can destroy it once.

Of course Tao Shuobai would not choose such an extreme approach, otherwise it would have been resolved in Tongcheng early in the morning.

Now that Zuwang Zhan died, Zheng Shida intensified his invasion of the Zhan family's business. The Zhan family's bank has collapsed, and half of the family property has been taken out.The follow-up impact is not limited to these, the capital chain is broken, and other businesses are also greatly affected.Yunfei was at a loss again, and with the death of Zhan Zuwang, Zhan Yunfei was in pain, and all internal and external affairs were handed over to Director Ji.

Ji Tianyao's visit to the capital this time was arranged by Director Ji, with the intention of probing.

Director Ji felt that it was really difficult for the young master to support the Zhan family, and if the second young master wanted to do it at this time, it might be impossible to make a plan.

However, Ji Tianyao found that the second young master didn't answer a word of the temptation, and even changed his temper.Ji Tianyao didn't think much about it, he just sighed secretly, the second young master refused to take over the Zhan family, the Ji family father and son had to find another way out, they couldn't hang themselves on the tree of the Zhan family.

Zhanzuwang died, not only Junsi had to go back to Tongcheng, but Pinhui also couldn't escape.

Going all the way, another month passed, and it was only one and a half months away from Rexiao.

Now the Zhan family is in decline, and even the servants are much less, who is not a genius?Anyone who can leave will leave, even if they have sold a death contract, they can go to the young master and cry and beg. If they are lucky, they will be released without even asking for money.

In such a huge home, people's hearts are scattered, and it becomes more and more dilapidated and old-fashioned.

If Yunfei doesn't care about the mess at home, can Wei Mengxian ignore it?Seeing that her son blamed himself and suffered so much, she couldn't bear to say anything, and insisted on taking care of internal and external affairs.She doesn't know much about business. Although it is a mess, she is reluctant to throw it away. After all, it is a family property that has been worked hard by generations of the Zhan family.

After one or two months, Wei Mengxian quickly withered away, and her body became worse and worse.

She didn't have a good rest due to hard work, and at night she always dreamed that Zhan Zuwang scolded her, resented her, and remembered Yunfei...

She will have such nightmares again and again, it is nothing more than the ruin of her ancestral foundation in Yunfei's hands, and she knows that she does not have much time to live, and she is afraid in her heart, fearing that she will not be able to report to Zhan Zuwang and Zhan Jialie when she goes underground. The ancestors explained.She was even more afraid of Yunfei's temperament, if she didn't watch, what would happen in the future?

Who would have thought that such a big family would be gone if it was gone.

At this time, Ji Tianhong came, and she gave all her private property to Yunfei, saying that she would help him tide over the current difficulties.

How could Yunfei want it? Wei Mengxian's face turned cold when she heard about it. She was polite, but she was very cold and determined to take it back.Their Zhan family is not pitiful enough to ask for a divorced wife, even if they are at the end of their rope, they cannot accept Ji Tianhong's "favor", otherwise, it will be really difficult for Yunfei to marry a wife.

This matter was decided by Ji Tianhong without authorization. After Mr. Ji heard the news, his face turned red with anger, and he took him away forcefully.

Just as Ji Tianhong left, another woman came in behind.

——Xiao Yufeng.

Xiao Yufeng really liked Yunfei, and even though she made trouble in the past, when Yunfei was in trouble, she also softened her heart.Especially when she saw Yunfei's pain, she thought of Xiao Mingyuan's death, so she naturally felt the same way.After thinking about it, she felt that she couldn't stay out of it, especially since her younger sister Xiao Yujuan was involved in this matter, which inevitably made her feel a little guilty and frightened.

When Xiao Yujuan was happy with Zhan Zuwang's death and the decline of the Zhan family, she went to the Zhan family.

Wei Mengxian hated this woman very much, but when Yunfei saw Xiao Yufeng, his eyes were shining, he hugged her tightly in his arms regardless of why, the two of them cried and laughed.Wei Mengxian endured and endured, for Yunfei's sake, she still endured.

The two seemed to ignore everyone around them, and only had each other in their eyes.

Xiao Yufeng touched Yunfei's face distressedly, tears rolled down: "Yunfei, you've lost weight, you've lost a lot."

"Yufeng, let's stop making trouble, okay? Our Zhan family is not as good as before, and I don't plan to do business anymore. In the future, we will go to Xikou to rebuild the 'Jiao Mountain Villa', and live a peaceful life together, okay?" Okay?" Yunfei said emotionally.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

"Then let's get married! Let's get married! We'll never be separated again." Once Yun Fei got excited, he also forgot that he was still in his father's filial piety, so he brought up a wedding.

"Okay, we will never be separated." Xiao Yufeng said in his mouth, but the look in his eyes gradually began to change, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, his fingers became claws, and suddenly he pulled towards Yunfei's chest.

"Yunfei!" Wei Mengxian shouted.

Wei Mengxian stood by the side all the time, deeply felt that the words and behavior of the two of them were inappropriate, so she was worried about leaving.The two of them started talking about getting married again at this time, she was about to scold Xiao Yufeng when she saw Xiao Yufeng laughing terribly and wanted to hurt Yunfei.

Wei Mengxian couldn't watch her son get hurt, so she instinctively rushed forward to protect Yunfei.Unexpectedly, the accident happened again, Yunfei not only did not hide, but also raised a hand, and used the same posture as Xiao Yufeng to reach for his heart.

"No!" Wei Mengxian knocked the two away, but it was too late, but he saw bright red blood oozing from their hearts.

Not far away, Jun Si opened his five fingers slightly, grasping and closing them in the air, and there were colorful shattered lights between his fingers, and finally the brilliance faded away, returning to the nothingness of heaven and earth.

Junsi's time card was just right, and he succeeded in destroying the soul of true love once.

Zhan Yunfei and Xiao Yufeng, who fell to the ground with pale faces, were injured, but they did not die.As for what will happen in the future, it's really hard to say before I wake up.
