Chapter 233 Delicious Heart of True Love 7
What happened to Zhan Yunfei and Xiao Yufeng shocked everyone. In Tongcheng, who doesn't know that they are a pair of lovers, and they want each other's life?
For a while, there were different opinions. Many people rumored that the two could not stay together due to pressure, so they had to die in love, but this was refuted by many people, and more people would rather believe that they were bewitched.After all, nothing happened before, but it happened after Xiao Yufeng came to the door, and the place where the accident happened was Zhan Zuwang's mourning hall.
Although the coffin has been buried in the ancestral land, there is an ancestral hall in the backyard of the Zhan family, in which are enshrined the tablets of the ancestors of the past generations, and the tablet of Zhan Zuwang is naturally placed here.Zhan Yunfei felt guilty because of Zhan Zuwang's death, and he came to worship almost every day, acting like a dutiful son.
As soon as the incident happened now, it led to the cause of Zhan Zuwang's death. Even though Zhan's family covered it up, there were still many people outside speculating and discussing it.
Junsi specifically told Pinhui not to get involved in the affairs there, and would return to Beijing only after the hot filial piety came out.
Of course Pinhui listened.
Regarding Zhan Zuwang's death, Pinhui didn't know whether she was sad or disappointed. Looking at the recent situation of Wei Mengxian's mother and son, and looking at the present Zhan's family, she was in a trance.She was thinking, if Yunxiang still had the same temper as before, and she still stayed in this house, she might not be as good as Wei Mengxian now, maybe...
Pinhui shuddered, not daring to think about it anymore.
As soon as the Hundred Days of Filial Piety ended, Junsi finally had a meal with the members of the Zhan family. All parties made some arrangements to avoid any worries, and then left Tongcheng again with Pinhui.From now on, Jun Si will naturally not come back, if he comes back, it must be the real Zhan Yunxiang.
Junsi is not himself, he is indifferent to Zhanjia, and his taste and wisdom are different.
Along the way, Pinhui still sighed from time to time: "Speaking of which, the eldest wife is really pitiful, she has lost so much weight, and Yunfei is too disappointing."
If the former Pinhui was determined not to say such words, she would only wish that it would be bad for the mother and child.
Pinhui added: "I don't know if Yunfei and that Xiao Yufeng will have a result? Yunfei has a stubborn temper, and I don't think the eldest wife can stop her. Besides, the eldest wife's body can't last for two years, and sooner or later she will take care of her." When it's not here."
At that time, Zhan Yunxiang and Xiao Yufeng seemed to attack ruthlessly, but Jun Si struck in time, once the soul of true love was extinguished, the two of them lost their strength immediately.Their hands didn't penetrate the chest, they didn't hurt the heart, but their fingers penetrated the flesh, shattered the ribs, and there was blood loss, so the two had to recuperate.
Although the two had lingering fears after waking up, they still cared about each other most.
Wei Mengxian completely disliked Xiao Yufeng, but as Pinhui said, she was also very aware of her own situation.Even if she stopped her for a while, after she died, Xiao Yufeng would have to enter the house sooner or later, so it's better to just turn a blind eye and close it.
She let go of Yunfei, and only reminded them to be careful not to cause unsightly things during the filial piety period.
But it's strange to say that no one stopped them, but the two people met each other every day from the beginning, and then saw each other once every ten and a half months, and gradually developed to avoid seeing each other, as if they had forgotten each other.
Not to mention Ah Chao, even Xiao Yujuan, who had always disapproved of the two, was very surprised and couldn't help but ask Xiao Yufeng.
"Sister, what's the matter between you and Zhan Yunfei? Did you break up completely, or lost your temper again? Could it be that the eldest wife of the Zhan family said something nasty to you?" Xiao Yujuan always felt that the last one was the most likely.
"No." Xiao Yufeng shook her head, sighed quietly, her eyes were full of confusion: "I used to think that he and I were connected with each other, I understood him, understood him, he also understood me, knew me, and we would be together for the rest of our lives, like My father and mother lived a life of indifference to the world. Before seeing him, I would miss him, and when I heard that something was wrong with him, I would worry. His family rejected me, and I would feel sad, but now... I don’t care at all. "
"What is 'don't care anymore'?" Xiao Yujuan couldn't understand the more she listened.
"I feel that he is becoming more and more strange, unlike the Zhan Yunfei I used to know, or I have never really known him. Many times, we talk to each other in silence, even if we don't see each other for a few days, I don't think about it." He doesn't even want to meet him anymore..."
"That is to say, you don't like him anymore?" Xiao Yujuan summed up all her descriptions in one sentence.
"...Maybe it is." Xiao Yufeng's heart trembled, she suddenly felt very sad, but at the same time seemed very relaxed.
At this time, Zhan Yunxiang was also questioned by A Chao, and he felt the same as Xiao Yufeng.
"A Chao, I know you don't understand, even I don't understand, I just suddenly realized that maybe I don't love Yufeng, maybe I just, just saw Yinghua in her."
Ah Chao couldn't understand, he didn't feel that the two were similar... maybe there was some similarity, not in appearance, but in charm and feeling.But so what?Young Mistress Yinghua has passed away, and the young master will marry again sooner or later, so why not marry someone who is similar to the previous Young Mistress?As long as you like it, that's fine.
"You don't understand. It's like I had a dream. In the dream, I have all the good things I'm chasing, but now I wake up from the dream, and the good things don't exist." This is the feeling of Zhan Yunfei, maybe he used to like Xiao Yufeng, but he felt that it was a moment of confusion, now he is sober, he knows that he does not love Xiao Yufeng.
He faced Xiao Yufeng and admitted that she was very gentle and beautiful, but he didn't love her, he couldn't feel the slightest intention to love her.
There is nothing wrong with the feeling of these two people, they really don't love each other now.
The aftermath of the soul of true love being destroyed is that the hearts of their true love for each other are destroyed together.
Logically speaking, they still have the possibility of falling in love, but for some reason, the two of them saw more obstacles, gaps, and shortcomings between each other this time, so they all retreated in unison.They gave up the chance to get along together, and also gave up the chance to love each other again.
But in their view, they are very sober at this time, unprecedentedly sober, and have made the most rational and correct decision.
Wei Mengxian breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as the breath was relieved, the body could no longer support it and fell down.
Two months later, Wei Mengxian died of illness.
This time it was no longer Ji Tianyao who went to the capital to report the funeral. The Ji family father and son left the Zhan family, took Ji Tianhong with them, and left Tongcheng.
It was already the end of the year when Junsi received the funeral report, and Tongcheng didn't wait for him to go back, and he was not even active in reporting the funeral, so he just gave a notice.Jun Si ordered someone to deliver the things, but only said that Pinhui was sad and fell ill, and the journey was far away and he couldn't move forward.
On the contrary, Pinhui still remembered the incident in Tongcheng, maybe she listened to it as a story, but it was always not so fun until the end.
"That Xiao Yufeng's younger sister really became Zheng Shida's concubine?" Pinhui asked with interest.
The person who talked to Pinhui was the person who came to report the funeral. Now that the road is cold and the road is not easy to walk, Junsi asked him to stay. It will be safe to walk with the caravan after the New Year is over.Seeing that he was meeting an old friend, Pinhui liked to listen to him talk about Tongcheng when he was free.
"There is no life to marry. Madam, you don't know, that Boss Zheng is dead!"
"What? Died? How did he die? When?" Pinhui was really startled.That Zheng Shida had been fighting against the Zhan family in Tongcheng for so many years, his body had been strong and he had many means, why did he suddenly die?
"Ma'am, listen to me, Boss Zheng was killed by bandits."
It turned out that after the Zhan family's downfall, Zheng Shida directly controlled the entire Tongcheng, and he was proud of the spring breeze, so he proposed to accept Xiao Yujuan as a passerby.Xiao Yujuan agreed, and the date was agreed upon.Who knew that Boss Zheng once went out of the city to burn incense, and he didn't know if he was greedy for the scenery. He walked deep in the back mountain and encountered bandits. Not only his money was robbed, but his life was also lost.
"Bandits?" Pinhui had heard of some grassroots bandits in the mountains outside the city, but in the past they were all robbing money, and never heard of any killings.
"Yeah, that's why Boss Zheng is unlucky. Maybe it's because he speaks hard and the bandits are annoyed, that's why..."
The two of them never thought that someone like Zheng Shida would be so careless?Even if you really want to enjoy the scenery, will you be alone?
In fact, Zheng Shida was invited away by someone, and this person was none other than Xiao Yujuan.
Zheng Shida was surprised to meet Xiao Yujuan in the temple, but he was not alert.Xiao Yujuan had prepared her speech a long time ago, and then made her eat candies containing drugs. After she was completely unconscious, she dragged him to a deep mountain, and brutally killed Zheng Shida with a knife.
The reason why Xiao Yujuan wanted to kill Zheng Shida was for revenge.
The last time Jun Si went back to Tongcheng for the funeral, Xiao Yujuan tried to get close to him with a beauty trick. Jun Si knew that he had been blamed, so could he remain indifferent?He gave clues to let Xiao Yujuan discover the truth by herself, and regarded the killing of her father and enemy as a benefactor or something. Can Xiao Yujuan bear it?
She had planned several times without success, but this time she was careless because of Zheng Shida's pride.
After Zheng Shida's death, no one suspected Xiao Yujuan. In the eyes of others, Xiao Yujuan was a victim instead, because she lost the chance to enter Zheng's house.
Not long after, the Xiao family sisters disappeared from Tongcheng with their younger siblings.
Except Ah Chao, no one cares about their whereabouts, as if they never existed.
At this time, a servant girl came in from the door and reported: "Madam, Miss Xia is here."
"It's just right for her to be so cold outside, why did she come out? Please come in quickly." Pinhui hurriedly ordered, not caring about talking about Tongcheng anymore.
Seeing this, the man from Tongcheng retired with a wink.
As soon as the door curtain was lifted, it was Ziwei and Jinsuo who came in, but even though Ziwei was wrapped in winter clothes at this time, her face was still a little pale, Jinsuo's complexion was not very good, and there was a little maid supporting her.
Ziwei came to see Pinhui because of the rules, and she didn't want to be rude.Others saved her, took her in, and took care of her, how could she not be grateful?It's just that she is not in good health now, so she can't come to serve Pinhui as a reward. She can only do some needlework with Jinsuo in the house in her free time, and giving it to Pinhui is a kind heart.
About Ziwei, Junsi mentioned it to Pinhui earlier.
It's one thing for Pinhui to feel pity for her, but after that incident, coupled with Jun Si's reminder, she realized that Ziwei's identity is not simple, so she didn't dare to make decisions without authorization, and naturally followed Jun Si's arrangement.
So she said: "I'm just a woman in a deep house. I don't know anything about the outside world, and I don't know what grievances you have. If I know, I can't help you. If you don't dislike it, just tell Yunxiang if you have any difficulties. He often Running outside, there is always a way, even if it is to find out some news, it is better than you, a girl."
"Thank you Madam, thank you Mr. Zhan for your generosity." Xia Ziwei didn't hesitate at this time.
Although she believed in the wrong person before, she always felt that the other person might have some unavoidable difficulties. Even if she was really deceived, is everyone in the world a liar?What's more, the Zhan family has always been kind to her without asking for anything in return. Without the Zhan family, maybe she and Jin Suo would not be able to come to the capital safely, so she would not doubt the Zhan family no matter what.
When they first arrived in the capital, they were very excited. How could they have expected that it would be so difficult to recognize relatives? Among other things, the first problem facing them was—how can they meet the emperor?
According to their original plan, they went to Taichang Temple first, but they went through all kinds of troubles, and they couldn't even meet Mr. Liang, let alone tell him about Xia Yuhe's story.
Not enough entanglement, and nowhere to look, just like in the original drama, they met Little Swallow.
The two sworn sisters, and Little Swallow became a messenger and successfully entered Mulan's paddock.The news came again, but it was the emperor who brought his newly adopted daughter, Huanzhugege, to sacrifice to heaven. They saw the person sitting in the sedan chair, and the newly released Huanzhugege was actually Little Swallow? !
What else do you not understand at this time?
Little Yanzi went to deliver the letter for her, but she acted like a princess and forgot about her!
Ziwei's first reaction was not the pain of losing the emperor's father, but the shock and disbelief at Little Swallow's betrayal.
They yelled the name of little Yanzi, cried and called the emperor, saying that they were the ones like Princess.But how strict the imperial sacrifice to the sky is, when they saw someone rushing into the team, the officers and soldiers immediately swept the two of them to the side of the street. It happened that Pinhui was watching the excitement in the teahouse on the side. When he saw Ziwei, he quickly brought him back Ask a doctor for treatment at home.
Only one step slower, the guards only saw the backs of a few people when Vulkan of the team came over.
At that time, he only heard a few words, but the vocabulary was very sensitive, such as "Ge Ge", "Little Swallow", etc. He often went to and from the palace, and knew Huan Zhu Ge Ge, of course he knew that Huan Zhu Ge Ge's name was Little Swallow.Originally, the two girls had to be questioned, but the team of offering sacrifices to the heavens would not stop, so after weighing it up, I had no choice but to let it go.
Perhaps it was two old friends who knew Huanzhugege, who ran into the team in a moment of excitement.
Ziwei Jinsuo originally belonged to Jiao Didi's girl's family, but she was beaten with sticks, and she was emotionally agitated by the incident with Little Yanzi, so she had to take care of her for more than a month before she could get out of bed.
Ziwei is a kind-hearted and innocent person, but she doesn't know how to reject people, she only thinks of people's good, even if there are bad things, she will bear it herself and give in again and again.Now she has complicated feelings towards Little Yanzi, of course she has resentment, because it was Xia Yuhe's last wish to recognize her relatives, but now she has become like this, she doesn't know what to do.
Facing the cold wind, Ziwei stood at the gate of the yard, hesitating for a while.
Jin Suo hated him: "Miss, have you forgotten what your wife said at the end of her life? We have worked so hard to come to the capital, and even the way back has been cut off. Don't tell me that Miss doesn't recognize her father? Instead, let a little gangster and a liar stand up to her." The name of the wife's daughter has robbed the lady of everything?"
"No!" Ziwei has never valued money and power. It can be said that she is naive, but it is also a kind of purity.What she thought of was that she couldn't let her father be cheated, and she couldn't let her mother die without peace.And little Yanzi, she treats little Yanzi like a sister, how can little Yanzi lie to her?Little Yanzi clearly knows how important it is to her to recognize her father.
"Then let's go see Master Zhan!" Jin Suo said hastily.
The two entered the courtyard gate, which was Zhuohuaju.
The first snow fell the day before yesterday, and the flowers, plants, mountains and rocks in the yard were all white, and they became more clean and quiet.There is a lot of remnants in the pool, covered with white snow, passing through the stone bridge, there is a three-story building directly opposite.This building was originally a library building, three rooms wide, simple and elegant. It was used by a businessman as a leisure place before, but now it has become the residence of Tao Shuobai and Junsi.
When the two entered the door, the room was not as warm as Pinhui's, but it felt refreshing. There were several pots of plum blossoms in the room, exuding a faint fragrance.
Tao Shuobai and Jun Si stood by the window, and there was a painting on the table, which was the scenery in the courtyard. The seemingly ordinary brushstrokes were extremely vivid and charming, quiet and peaceful, as if they were indifferent to the world, which made people appreciate The mood of the painter is also calm.
When Ziwei heard Jun Si commenting on the painting, she knew it was done by Tao Shuobai, and she couldn't help admiring it.
"Miss Xia, what's the matter?" Jun Si asked straight to the point.
I don't know why, even though the other party's tone is kind, Ziwei's lazy attitude always makes Ziwei nervous.She had long known that the Zhan family was a merchant in Tongcheng, and Pinhui did have some small family habits, but she couldn't see the slightest bit from the young master of the Zhan family.
Ziwei didn't know where to start.
Jin Suo was secretly anxious, so he knelt down on the ground and said it for her: "Master Zhan, please help my lady, that Princess Huanzhu is fake, my lady is the real princess!"
With the beginning, the rest will be easy to say.
Tao Shuobai and Jun Si knew about those things a long time ago.
Jun Si listened absent-mindedly, and sat aside with a book in his hand, as if to sit on the sidelines.
Ziwei Jinsuo was a little dazed, thinking that the other party was afraid and didn't want to care.
But I heard Tao Shuobai ask her: "If you saw Little Yanzi, and Little Yanzi said that she recognized Gege in a daze and had no choice but to become Gege, what would you do?"
Ziwei was taken aback for a moment, although she didn't speak, her eyes struggled a little.
On the other hand, Jin Suo was full of anger: "How could she just rob someone else's father in a daze? Besides, she didn't rob someone else's father, she robbed the young lady's father. If my young lady's father wasn't the emperor, she wouldn't have robbed her either. She It is greed for glory and wealth!"
"Jin Suo! Little Swallow is not that kind of person. She helped us and took us to the paddock. I'm afraid I won't be able to climb it myself." Ziwei took a deep breath and asked, "I want to meet Little Swallow. I'm going to ask her myself."
"Miss!" Jin Suo was angry and anxious.
With a character like Ziwei, she was eaten to death by the little swallow in this life. Later, for the safety of the little swallow, she would rather not recognize her father and go back to Jinan, except that no one around her sincerely helped her, and she herself had the consciousness of self-sacrifice to help others cause trouble.
Tao Shuobai actually doesn't like Ziwei's character, but he doesn't say anything, everyone has their own fate, Ziwei's temper can't be reversed in a day or two, or she thinks it's good.
"You shouldn't have gone to Taichang Temple in the first place. If you want to look for it, you should go to the clan mansion. If it's not good enough, you should go to Prince He. He is Qianlong's younger brother, your uncle. Although he doesn't act very well, But things like yours are also family affairs, and he will not stand by and watch."
"Prince He?" Ziwei knew about Prince He before, but when she arrived in the capital, she often heard his name, and people called him the absurd prince in private.After all, who would hold a funeral for themselves while alive?It couldn't be more absurd for this prince to do this, to receive sacrifices, to eat sacrifices, and to make the whole family cry.
Not to mention that Ziwei never thought of going to find this uncle, even if she wanted to, she would not go after seeing how the other party behaved.
On the contrary, Jin Suo was very active, and hurriedly said: "Peach Taoist, you know that our master and servant are not familiar with each other, and we are not even allowed to enter the yamen, let alone the prince's mansion. Besides, Gege is already gone. Being robbed by Little Swallow, we... how can we meet that prince?"
Tao Shuobai couldn't help asking: "What have you guys been doing in the capital for so long? Didn't you ask for news?"
As long as people who have been to the capital, who hasn't heard of the absurd prince?Who doesn't know this hobby?As long as you know, you will definitely know where you can meet people. As for whether you can talk about it, that's another matter.
Ziwei blushed.
Although Ziwei came to find her father, but when she arrived in the capital, she only thought that Taichang Temple would not work, so she had no idea.It was Little Swallow's idea to go to Xishan paddock.It's not that she didn't think of other ways, but she couldn't think of it. She was quite indifferent to the messy things in the outside world, and didn't get into her ears at all.
Tao Shuobai thought it was time to go for a walk in the palace, so he said: "You guys go out with me tomorrow."
The next day was fine weather, Tao Shuobai refused Jun Si to follow, and took Ziwei Jinsuo and two out.
Ziwei found that they did not go to the palace, but came to the lively street, and the carriage stopped in front of a restaurant.
——Longyuan Building!
This restaurant is very famous, but anyone who can read and read can tell that it has an extraordinary background just from the name of the restaurant. Not all restaurants are called "Longyuan", especially at the foot of the capital.It is said that the behind-the-scenes owner of this restaurant is Prince He, which is in line with Prince He's usual behavior of making money.
He and the prince also often come to this restaurant to wander around, and they happened to come today.
