Chapter 218: The road is narrow
Then she understood why he had turned his head to see her when he heard that she was coming to the temple. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It turned out that he had this taboo in his heart.
She didn't mean to offer incense. He stood up, tugged at the corner of his clothes and said, "There is a street behind the temple that sells a lot of food, let's go." โ
His mind was divided on him, and he began to realize many of his casual little habits.
For example, he doesn't enter the Buddhist temple, he doesn't like to look back when he walks, and in addition to shabu mutton, he is also willing to eat folk foods such as sauce elbows.
He didn't enter the Buddha hall, so then she simply bypassed the Buddha hall and led him down a secluded path.
She walked with confidence.
He said, "How often do you come?"
Only then did she slow down and stop on the steps behind the temple: "I've been here a few times." โ
After all, in those sixteen years, except for her absence from the capital and illness, she would come every fifteenth day of the new year.
After more than ten years of accumulation, is it just familiar?
But the girls of the Shen family obviously don't come often, they just want to make incense, and they usually go to other temples.
Xiao Huai didn't care. Anyway, he didn't come much.
They then went to the back of the temple.
Many pilgrims passed by in twos and threes, and many recognized him, and some would stand at a distance. But most of them were intimidated, and stood at a distance, waiting for him to look away, and then hurried away.
But he was so good, and many young girls, with little handkerchiefs in their hands, looked at him with little pink stars in their eyes.
Shen Xi couldn't help but squeeze his eyes at him: "The prince is so favored." โ
Xiao Huai's face was grim, and he walked down with her head held high: "Not as favored as you." "If he hadn't made a quick move, the matchmaker would have broken the door.
Shen Xi smiled but did not speak, and was obediently led down the stone steps by him.
But more and more people recognized him, and the plainclothes guards who were originally following from a distance sped up to keep up, and when he got to the bottom of the stairs, he couldn't stop talking to people he knew well.
Shen Xi stood next to him and waited for a while, then went down the stone steps first and walked towards the small alley behind the temple.
The stone steps go down, and a short distance away is the crowded market, so the ladies prefer to walk this side into the temple, and turn right, this side is the small alley where she died.
At this point, her steps seemed to be held by a rope and led forward.
A patch of red blood appeared in front of her eyes, and the sky in front of her suddenly changed to the dawn of the past.
She was half-lying in the corner of the wall with her chest clutched, her chest and abdomen were stabbed, her limbs were twitching, and the blood in her body was gurgling out.
And ten steps away stood Wen Chan, who was dressed in a fine silver fox fur, and the lanterns hanging on the overturned carriage illuminated her in her eyes!
"Miss Zhang?" she called out to her sarcastically.
"My family background is not as good as yours, my background is not as good as yours, I have been bullied by my stepmother since I was a child, and I don't even have decent clothes.
"If it weren't for my father's insistence that all children in the family should study, I am afraid I would not even know what the Four Books and the Five Classics are.
"And you don't have to do anything, both parents are complete, the stars hold the moon, and there are a lot of good days waiting for you when you are born.
"If I don't plan for myself, then I will be compared to you for the rest of my life.
"How can I be beaten by you like a straw bale?
"Your existence is superfluous, and it is an obstacle to me! If I don't kill you, will I still keep you disgusting myself?"
"It is not easy for me to live so humbly, and your father, in order to gain fame and show his hypocrisy, has to take me into the mansion to see with his own eyes how you live on the high ground!
"I'm smarter than you, more studious than you, and more filial than you, he praises me in his mouth, but secretly he still favors you!
"Are you also worthy of marrying Xu Jing?!
"Even if you marry a poor family, you don't deserve such a rich dowry! I won't kill you, do I want to keep you to see how you are beautiful for a lifetime?!
"Xu Jing is mine, and your dowry is also mine! Everything you have, all should be mine!
"Don't worry, when you die, they will raise me as you, I will let them marry a good family for me, and then give me the dowry that was given to you at the beginning!
"From now on, I will be Zhang Gelao's other daughter!
"Live in your yard, use your maid, and go out of the pavilion from the gate of your Zhang family, I will be beautiful and beautiful for the rest of my life, stepping on your bones and enjoying endless glory and wealth......"
The voices in my ears buzzed, sentence after sentence.
The grass and trees in front of me are slightly withered, but the outlines of the past are still there.
She had come to this old land.
She raised her hand to touch the wall, and fifty years later the foot of the wall was even more mottled, the surroundings had changed slightly, but the walls of the houses opposite had not changed.
She gathered her mind and looked around.
Maybe even after countless times here, she may not be able to remember the grass and trees here, but she still has an impression of it.
And it's enough that she has this general impression too!
Zhang Ying died under the wall of the alley, and behind the wall was Xiangguo Temple.
And her left head is to go to the temple steps, and her right head is the alley leading to the direction of Zhangfu.
And in the right front of this alley, there is a road leading to the temple, which is the street market where she and Xiao Huai will go.
The assassin who took Wen Chan's silver ticket that day withdrew from that direction.
There was no one on this side of the alleyโno living or sober people, and no dwellings within thirty zhang.
The only thing who could hide was within the high wall behind her.
Judging from the previous speculation, Wen Chan has helpers in addition to those assassins, which is certain.
And this helper didn't show up until Zhang Ying's death, either because he was weak-hearted, or because they still had a conspiracy.
The reason for the weakness of his heart is naturally that he is worried about being seen by her! A person who is still worried about showing his feet in front of a dying person must be afraid of the power of the Zhang family.
Han Ruoju......
Her eyes darkened.
All suspicions can't seem to get around this person, could it be him?
But even if Han Ruoju is the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, he has a certain amount of power, but how can this power be so great that he can hide within the courtyard walls of the National Temple?
There are also guards in Xiangguo Temple.
Moreover, it is suspicious that the temple was not disturbed from beginning to end by such a movement that morning......
"Shen Xi, why are you here?"
Suddenly, a hostile female voice sounded in her ears.
She frowned slightly, and suddenly turned around, time was staggered, and the figures in front of her were also overlapping.
It was not Wen Chan who was looking at her with a golden hairpin in her head and hostility, but her granddaughter Han Min!
The third lady of the Han family, who used to be in front of their family in the Han family and wanted to dig a pit for her.
"Didn't you marry Xiao Shizi? Why, when you became the future princess, you are still so shabby?
A girl of twelve or thirteen years old is already like a knife.
