Chapter 275: The Man Who Returned to the Soul

"I've been to the cemetery. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½β€

Su Yan said: "The people who came back after going there said that the whole cemetery looked normal, and there were no traces of rough movement.

"Apparently someone has since rearranged it.

"There are several ancestors of the Xu family surnamed Zhang in the cemetery, and the closest one in time is Zhang Ying, the young lady of the famous Yanjing Zhang family.

But the subordinates didn't know if the girl sent someone to sort it out.

"If it's a girl, she's probably a little lacking.

Except for her, only Helan has the ability to quietly restore her appearance.

"So far, the prince has not received the slightest news about this matter, which shows that Helan Chen's hands and feet are extremely clean.

"And from this point of view, the reason why he was able to arrive with his own people at night was that I guess he also sent someone to watch outside the Shen family when the young master left Beijing. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Xiao Huai.

Xiao Huai's face was a little stinky when he saw it. And he snorted coldly in his nose.

Su Yan lowered his eyes, and continued: "At least for now, it is obviously a little difficult for the Han family to make a fuss about the Xu family's cemetery. ”

Xiao Huai was silent for a while, took back the hand holding the cup, and after a while, he looked up again: "What about her?"

Su Yan also raised his head, and was about to go out to look for it, when Shen Xi walked in with a tray.

There is a bowl of noodles on the tray, and the aroma is very tempting.

"You're going to cook it?"

Xiao Huai watched her come all the way, sat down in front of her, and then brought the noodles to him again, and then he said in a daze.

"Hmm. Shen Xi nodded, handed over the toothbrush with a smile, and then looked at him with his cheeks on the other side: "Make up for your birthday." ”

For the past two days, she has been studying this in the small kitchen.

Xiao Huai stared at her for a long time, then raised his toothbrush to pick up a bunch of noodles, looked at her again in the white mist rising from the noodles, and stuffed the entrance.

Shen Xi watched him eat slowly, his mind a little wandering.

"Why did you think to cook noodles for me?"

Shen Xi shrugged: "I don't know what I can do for you on your birthday, so I'll give you a bowl of noodles to eat." ”

He stopped his toothbrush and looked straight at her.

Shen Xi urged him: "Eat quickly." ”

He didn't move, but thought about it before he continued to eat.

After eating, Shen Xi wiped his mouth carefully with a handkerchief, and he also let her wipe it.

At the end, Shen Xi sat back, held his cheeks and grinned, "What did Tan Ji tell you?"

Xiao Huai glanced at her, cleared his throat and said, "He came to ask for peace." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at her: "You said last time that your surname was Zhang, just now Tan Ji also said that Wen Chan and they harmed you in the Xu family cemetery, and Su Yan said that the Xu family cemetery is indeed buried with a young lady of the Yanjing Zhang family."

"You know so much, are you a descendant of the Zhang family in Yanjing?"

Hearing Zhang Ying, Shen Xi's cheek paused for a moment.

She stared at him for a while, then put her hand down: "I am a descendant of the Zhang family." ”

Xiao Huai thought for a moment, frowned and said, "In that case, you should be the daughter of Zhang Zijie, the priest of the country, and the granddaughter of Taifu Zhang Yu?"

Shen Xi was in a complicated mood, but still nodded: "So to speak." ”

Xiao Huai didn't say anything more, staring and waiting for her to follow.

Shen Xi sighed, pursed his lips and said: "Fifteen years ago, when I was still in infancy, my grandmother and my mother lost confidence in the court situation at that time, and I couldn't bear to be born and followed the Zhang family to die, so they first sent me to my adoptive parents.

"In this way, I became the young lady of the Shen family. ”

Xiao Huai nodded, groaned slightly, and his eyes were already clear.

"Your grudge with the Wen family must be because of the Han family's current position, and what has she done to you?"

Shen Xi looked at the beam of sunlight that shone obliquely and did not speak immediately.

Some things are easier said than done.

To say such a thing as a soul resurrection in person, even she felt incredible.

She didn't forget Wen Chan's performance when she was suspicious that she was Zhang Ying, Qi Jiu was also frightened when she heard about it, even if Xiao Huai would be better, but it would definitely be frightening, right?

Her silence made Xiao Huai think of other aspects.

He stared at her for a while, then clasped her hand in his hand: "I heard something about the Zhang family.

"Don't be upset. If you won't be hostile to me because our Xiao family is also one of the murderers of Qin, I want to say that in addition to your parents' affection, I can give you whatever the Zhang family and Daqin can give you. ”

His hands were held firmly. Shen Xi raised his eyes to look at him, but he didn't say no.

She knew that he was sincere, but apart from the affection of his parents, there were still some things that he really couldn't give.

For example, her dignity as a Helian person.

Can she openly disclose her identity as a descendant of the Zhang family? Even if she can no longer be Zhang Ying, she still wants to exist in this world as a descendant of the Zhang family after all.

She wants to live like a normal person, without being afraid, and not always on guard against the bad consequences of her bloodline being exposed.

What she wants is not to live secretly, nor is she the title of the princess, to be able to stay with him calmly for the rest of her life as a Helian person, so that she can be proud of the descendants of the Zhang family in front of the world, these are what she really wants.

But even then, she couldn't say it.

As far as he is concerned, it is quite remarkable to be able to give her what she can, and the rest is all nonsense.

She lowered her head, took a deep breath and looked up again: "Shizi, have you ever heard of such a thing as borrowing a body to return the soul?"

"Resurrection?" Xiao Huai had a puzzled look between his eyebrows.

Shen Xi withdrew his hand and put his mood calm: "In the past, Zhang Yu had a younger sister who was killed in Xiangguo Temple when she was fifteen years old because she went to incense.

"I am indeed Miss Zhang's family, but in my body as Zhang Zijie's daughter, it is the soul of Aunt Zijie that lives.

"Shizi, I am actually Zhang Ying, the sister of Zhang Yu who died fifty years ago. ”

There was silence in the room. Xiao Huai still maintained a posture of sitting on his knees, while Zhang Ying saw a stunned and strange look on his face.

"You mean, you were fifty years ago?"

As the prince of King Yan, who dominates the world, there is no calmness or calmness on his face now, only disbelief that cannot be concealed.

Zhang Ying suppressed the surging in her heart and said: "Fifty years ago, Wen Chan was still my good sister, she was brought back to Zhang's mansion by me from the countryside of Huizhou when she was eight years old, and became the adopted daughter of the Zhang family.

"But that morning, fifty years ago, she had been planning for a long time to kill me in the small alley behind Xiangguoji Temple.

"Then I woke up and became Shen Xi - that is, Zhang Yu's wife secretly sent to the Shen family Miss Zhang, my niece and granddaughter slowly. ”

Xiao Huai didn't move anymore like a stone sculpture, making people feel that he was so quiet that he seemed to be holding his breath.
