Chapter 34: Wei Qian's revenge
According to Wei Yan, the reason why he had an accident was also related to the seizure of illicit salt not long ago.
That incident involved a certain prince in the Dragon Court, and that prince was deeply rooted in the Jiangnan camp, so he could take the opportunity to transfer Wei Yan to attack.
In fact, the Criminal Department had already guessed what had happened, and this matter must be related to the inside of the Jiangnan camp. It is precisely because of this that the Criminal Department did not dare to ask more, for fear of setting himself on fire.
Wei Yan didn't say it explicitly, only said that this matter was related to the salt case, and let Wei Qian go back and inform Lin Ruhai. But Wei Qian, who has often visited Jia Daishan's ghosts and gods over the years, is quite sensitive to the situation in the court under the teaching of this grandfather, and immediately guessed the hidden meaning behind this.
"To be able to transfer my father out, it must be someone from inside the Jiangnan camp. Nowadays, most of the people in the Jiangnan camp are the crown prince, the five princes and the people of today. The direction in which the traitors of the Tongyuan Sect fled from Lenovo...... Hehe, Zhen family! Five Princes! Do you Zhen really want to be the emperor's mother? "According to his grandfather's words, the key to the saint's face to the Zhen family is the old lady of the Zhen family. But how can the favor be passed down from generation to generation? When it comes to the next generation of emperors, they will definitely not respect the Zhen family so much, so the Zhen family must let the next generation of emperors also be their own people.
Manipulating the throne of Guozuo is a big taboo! According to Jia Daishan's understanding of the saint, even if the saint does not speak now, he will inevitably rebel against the Zhen family in the future, and the family will be ruined.
Wei Qian sorted out her thoughts: "The Zhen family is not afraid, there will be people looking for them to settle accounts in the future." But contacting Tongyuan Sect will inevitably cause the Zhen family to trouble us in the future, so we should add blockages to them first and disrupt their layout. ”
The matter of the salt case can't be poked out at this time, this is the final straw that will kill the entire Zhen family.
Good steel should be used on the cutting edge.
"The Zhen family has done a lot of personal things over the years, so they can be temporarily stumped." But what made it difficult for Wei Qian was that although she knew a lot of things because of the Yin God Night Tour, she didn't have her own way if she wanted to poke it out.
"I can't use my own name, people are soft-spoken, no one listens to what I say, and I will be retaliated against by the Zhen family in the future. And in the name of others, you can only speak with your father's widow. Perhaps, it can be from the door of Uncle Huang or the Lin family's uncle. ”
And this, you need to ventilate with Jia Mei.
"My father did not leave a legacy, and if I really want to use this name, I must discuss it with my mother, after all, my mother can imitate my father's handwriting."
At the end of the night, the morning glow in the east is colorful, and some people have come to mourn.
The carriage returned to the Wei Mansion slowly, and happened to see the Zhen family's sedan chair at the gate of the Wei Mansion.
Wei Yan died, and the grandmother of the Zhen family came to mourn. At this time, Jia Mei was sending a few people away.
Seeing the sad faces of the Zhen family, Wei Qian suppressed the fire in her heart, and also made a crying face and came down to visit. Because it is necessary to thank the guests during the funeral, the younger generation like Wei Qian needs to make a big gift.
Wei Qian hinted that Wei Ying and Wei Ling should not come out for the time being, and she came forward to send people away with her mother, and secretly endured humiliation when she saluted, and was angry in her heart: "Now you initiators still dare to come?" It's okay, I'm worried that I have no place to vent my anger, I want to see how much protection I have for the Zhen family today, and whether the joy of the five princes is real! ”
Since Lishan's mother will inevitably intervene in the battle of the Dragon Court, Wei Qian naturally has to prepare early and have a good relationship with the future emperor.
The five princes are absolute enemies, and they can pit a handful, and Wei Qian is by no means ambiguous.
In the same way, test the minds of the saints today.
Seeing the people of the Zhen family leave, Wei Qian helped Jia Mei back to the room.
"My mother is tired of handling funerals all these years, and tomorrow my father's coffin will return, and my daughter and grandmother will come forward."
Jia Mei shook her head, although the relationship between the husband and wife has not been good in recent years, after all, there have been a few years of raising eyebrows. At the beginning, Wei Qian was able to be alone for seven years, which was also Wei Yan's fatherly love and love for his wife.
"It's okay, in the end, after more than ten years of husband and wife, let your mother send your father on his last journey." Thinking of Wei Yan letting go, Jia Meiqing was excited again and couldn't stop crying.
"Mother, you look like this, even my father is not at ease when he sees it. Besides, last night, my father asked me to take good care of you! ”
"If he really wants me to feel at ease, he can protect his life-" Suddenly, Jia Mei was stunned for a moment, and unconsciously rubbed her head: "Your mother, I have been tired for a few days, and my spirit is not good, I didn't hear what you just said." ”
In the room, except for Wei Qian, only Hongchun was guarding the door, Wei Qian smiled and said again: "My daughter saw her father last night. Not a real person, of course, but a ghost. ”
In the blue sky and white day, a chill appeared in Jia Mei's heart, and she looked at her daughter again, as if she had never understood.
Wei Qian wanted to get Jia Mei's support, and she had already prepared a set of abdominal plans that she could accept: "Mother should know that her daughter stays in Doumu Temple all day long, and she has been with Master Lingyun for a long time, she has been influenced by the gods, and she has also received a little occult protection. At night, ghosts and gods can be observed. ”
"......" Although Jia Mei believes in ghosts and gods, she is not very convinced that Wei Qian sees ghosts, but wonders if it should be her daughter who thinks about it day and night, and sees it wrong at night?
"Qian'er lost her father, and it is reasonable to say that her spirit is a little abnormal under the blow of her heart, or is it who pretends to be a ghost?" Jia Mei thought about it and asked cautiously: "So, what did your father ask you to do?" ”
"Naturally, it's revenge."
As soon as these words came out, Jia Mei believed that someone was secretly bewitching. Thinking about it: I often hear that there are people in the rivers and lakes who are very skillful, come and go without a trace, like ghosts and gods, could it be that their daughter was used by them? Otherwise, how could Wei Yan let his daughter take the risk of revenge?
How did she know, of course, this was not Wei Yan's idea. Wei Yan's mind was to let Lin Ruhai come forward, but Wei Qian was angry, so he wanted to avenge his father by himself.
"I know that my mother doesn't believe me, but in addition to my father, my daughter often chats with her grandfather." Wei Qian has met with Jia Daishan several times a month in the past three years, and even met the ancestor of the Wei family twice. casually picked up a few things about Jia Mei's childhood, and Jia Mei was suspicious: "This is what your grandfather told you when you were in Rongguo Mansion?" ”
"How many times has my grandfather met me in Rongguo Mansion? Where can I say so much? Wei Qian said: "If my mother doesn't believe me, I can go and ask my grandfather again tonight, I don't know what my mother wants to ask?" ”
Jia Mei suspected that Jia Daishan had told Wei Qian about herself, but she refused to believe it. But suddenly I thought of an incident that I had been thinking about for a few years, so I said, "Do you remember our Yunxiang Building?" When the shopkeeper He transferred Yunxianglou to us, he did not have a land deed. ”
"My daughter knows, didn't it mean that the old lady of the He family didn't pass down the title deed before leaving? However, he only has one son, Uncle He, and it must be too late to die. So when it was transferred to our family, Uncle He reported the loss at the government and made up a new one. ”
"That's right, but the old title deed has not been found so far, if it was taken by others back then, I am afraid there will be waves in the future. If you can really communicate with the ghosts and gods, then communicate with the ghost of Old Lady He and find out the title deed. ”
"What's so hard about that? Uncle He is still helping our family take care of Yunxiang Building, and I also went to deliver melons and fruits to the old lady during the Golden Year Halloween. Wei Qian smiled lightly: "If my mother is true, I will travel in front of you once at night." ”
Jia Mei bowed her head, and the mother and daughter began today's funeral after breakfast.
Until the middle of the night, Wei Qian accompanied Jia Mei to sleep and sat cross-legged in front of her. The towering golden gate rose in the clouds overhead, Jia Meifan peeped at it, and when she was young, she couldn't help crying, and she didn't dare to look directly again.
Wei Qian's Yin God traveled, and in the past three years, he was familiar with every inch of Jinling's boundary, and he could find his way to the outskirts of the city without disturbing the door god.
"Grandma Wei travels, idlers are exempt." Suddenly, two good spirits jumped out and shouted at the top of their voices.
On the 15th day of July, the door of ghosts is wide open. Many of the ghosts will return home, only to return to the netherworld after half a year.
In the huge Jinling City, these souls fought each other and fought for territory. But after Wei Qian's Yin God traveled, he came forward to mediate the conflict, so he had some prestige among these dead souls.
"Everyone has grievances and hatreds, hurry up and ask Grandma Wei to call the shots!" Another ghost shouted and shouted, and many people watching from a distance gathered around, men, women, and children.
Wei Qian was a little helpless: "The local city god is also here, if you don't look for him, what are you looking for me every day?" Isn't it his job to keep you souls safe? ”
"Isn't it because the divine light on the city god is too strong? We were terrified when we passed, for fear that the old man would be angry. And as far as our little contradictions are concerned, what if the old man sends us to the underworld with a wave of his hand? The good deed next to him slapped his face shyly: "And grandma is kind and kind, just like the Bodhisattva in the temple." ”
Wei Qian shook her head and didn't speak. Just looked at the City God Temple from afar.
There are gods in every mountain and water, in every place and in every city. Of course, the rank of these gods is very low, and the land of the gods in the gods and Buddhas has always been the last stream. The treatment of the city god is not good, many gods and spirits go to heaven and earth to live forever after they are powerful, and leave the god position in the mortal world to future generations early.
Now this Jinling City God is an official of the previous dynasty after the death of the heroic soul immortal, was sacrificed by the people. When it comes to cultivation, he and Wei Qian are only between them, and this city god rarely cares about these dead souls outside, as long as they don't go too far, they generally ignore it.
Respecting the soul of the dead and staying away, An Ansheng lived his own small life, as long as he was not supervised by others, he almost did not do his job.
"If it weren't for the canonization of the city god and the need for the edict of the Son of Heaven, I would have the heart to let my grandfather be the city god." Wei Qian silently calculated, and saluted in the direction of the City God Temple.
The Son of Heaven patrolled the road on behalf of the heavens, established the Dragon Court, and canonized the hundred gods. At the beginning of the present dynasty, Gaozu Dingding dragon vein, after ranking in the Daming Palace, he was canonized as the city god of the world. Among them, there are kings, princes, marquis, and uncles, who examine the good and evil of the people and determine the good and evil, and the place where the shepherd's soul is stable and secluded.
Jinling, as one of the capitals of all dynasties, is second only to the Yongling King of Chang'an in its status as a city god, and is a first-class city god of the duke. If it is calculated according to the rules of the yang world, it is comparable to the lord of the duke.
When the city god saw it, he also hurried back the salute. After all, Wei Qian's strength lies in himself, not in the canonization of the dynasty. Moreover, Wei Qian had something to give him, and he didn't dare to be disrespectful.
In the distance, the girl in white has bright teeth and bright eyes, her clothes are fluttering, and she is as graceful as a dragon. The wisps of dragon qi on the body are accompanied by each other, and there are immortal treasures in the body. This Chenghuang Gong didn't want to cause trouble, and continued to drink tea after returning the gift.
In this way, the two of them each took a step back, and for three years the well water did not interfere with the river water.
Wei Qian asked about the recent situation of these dead souls, and everyone didn't have a big fight now, just saw Wei Qian's Yin God traveling and felt curious before they came out to take a look.
"Except for visiting Rong Guogong in the suburbs on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, isn't Grandma Immortal rarely going out? I don't know what's the important thing when I come out this time? ”
"I want to ask Mrs. He about something." Wei Qian said it generously.
When everyone heard this, they chattered and said: "It's also a coincidence, after the Midyear Festival, the ghost door is wide open, and we undead are wandering outside, and He Lao Er is also there just now." ”
Several ghosts pounced on each other, pushing and shoving, and after pushing and shoving, the three ghosts flew to the big locust tree in the west to find He Ming.
He Ming ran Yunxianglou at the beginning, but it gradually became ineffective in his son's generation, and later simply sold Yunxianglou to Jia Mei, and they honestly worked in Yunxianglou as a bookkeeper. Of course, Jia Mei didn't mean anything to them, and gave them 30% of dry shares, so that their monthly dividends were enough to support their families.
It is precisely because of this that the He family will do their best to serve Jia Mei.
Wei Qian sent many ghost melons and fruits on Halloween Day, and because he had a good relationship with the He family, he gave some more.
He Ming came to meet Wei Qian, and when Wei Qian asked about the title deed, He Ming was a little puzzled: "Didn't my kid report the loss in the government back then, what is the use of this title deed?" ”
"He Er, don't be ignorant, grandma asks, you just have to answer!" The soul of the good deed next to him shouted: "Say so much! ”
"Cut! What do you know! I'm afraid that that kid in our family will offend the grandmothers of the Wei family, so I have to ask clearly, and then I can go home and teach him a lesson. ”
"Come on! You've only been a ghost for a few years, and you can't even do your dreams, who are you taught! ”
"Isn't there a grandmother here?" He Ming informed Wei Qian of the location of his buried title deed, and Wei Qian thanked him and sent melons and fruits, turning them into a breeze and returning to his house.
Jia Mei saw Wei Qian meditating with her eyes closed, and the red toon next to her warned not to disturb the body, and after waiting for a cup of tea, Wei Qian opened her eyes and told the place where He Ming buried the title deed.
"Mother will check tomorrow, absolutely accurate."
The next day, Jia Mei went to look for the title deed, and sure enough, she found it according to Wei Qian's words. At this point, he will be skeptical and agree with Wei Qian's words.
Wei Qian knew that her mother still didn't believe it, and she didn't continue to say anything. Instead, he said his own idea, under the pretense of Wei Yan's idea.
"My father's death is inseparable from the Zhen family. Maybe the future will trouble us. asked his mother to write three suicide notes, one of which was addressed to Uncle Huang, listing the Zhen family's crimes over the years. Of course, it is better not to use your own name, under the guise of others. Uncle is a thorn in history, and he has the ability to supervise the table. ”
"The second letter was to Aunt Lin, and my father's accident was probably related to a secret in Jiangnan. In recent years, my uncle-in-law has become close to my father because of my aunt's relationship, and I am afraid that it is inseparable. The mother warned her father not to poke it out for the time being, and it was important to save her life first. If it was really done by the Zhen family, the current saints would not be sent down, but would give them a chance to take revenge. ”
"The third letter should be a secret fold, but don't finish it. Only half of it was written, and then it stopped abruptly, and when his father's coffin returned, he hid it in his belongings, pretending to find it later, which could be used as evidence against the Zhen family in the future. ”
Wei Qian dictated and asked Jia Mei to transcribe.
Jia Mei secretly thought: If Qian'er's words are true, then I am afraid that the matter of the husband and the fifth prince will be inseparable.
"The Five Princes must not be allowed to ascend the throne! If he ascends to the throne, this matter will be buried forever! Jia Mei and Wei Qian are mother and daughter in the end, and they instantly understood the cause and effect of their own blessings and misfortunes, and secretly rebelled against the five princes.
There are many people who ridicule the fire of the dragon, but how many people are really for the great work in the future?
Among them, I am afraid that there are many people like Jia Mei who have an enmity with a certain prince and absolutely do not want this prince to take the throne. After all, when it is liquidated in the future, do you really want to be killed willingly in the name of serving the country with loyalty?
"Since the fifth prince has done the first year of junior high school, we have also done fifteen! Anyway, the person who the eldest brother supports is not him, just to make a stand. "This daughter of the Duke of Rong Guo is also a decisive person. Immediately decided to join Jia Yu's side.
"By the way, girl, is there a female cultivator named Xuanning in the Dou Mu Temple? How come I haven't seen it? ”
"Xuanning?" Wei Qian's face turned strange: "No, it's my daughter." "Because the acquaintances in the temple call Senior Sister Qian, outsiders don't know this road number.
"You?" Jia Mei was speechless, and countless thoughts swirled in her mind.
Let her help find Aunt Xuanning Dao, this is what Jia Yu meant. It is said that it was the man who saved the Seven Princes of the White Arowana suit.
If it's your own daughter, then this matter is worth handling.
Perhaps, this incident can be regarded as a turning point!
Jia Mei's heart is alive. Anyway, she didn't want her daughter to learn some strange arts, and then be alone and widowed for the rest of her life. She thinks that Wei Qian's seeing through the red dust like this must be the scourge of the marriage contract, and if she can find a lover, she will naturally be able to pull her back to the right path of husband and child.
