44. Father-daughter confrontation

When Xu Da saw his daughter, he wanted to talk about it, but he didn't know where to start.

Instead, Yao Miaoyi looked at the long-awaited "snowman" in the wind and snow, and said, "It's cold outside, let's go in and talk." ”

Xu Da came back to his senses suddenly, yes, he has been through the battlefield and is not afraid of wind and rain, but his daughter, who looks five points similar to his wife Xie, has been walking in the wind and snow for so long, she must be very cold.

"Okay." Xu Da habitually took the handle of the purple bamboo umbrella, wanting to shelter his daughter from the wind and snow. Yao Miaoyi's plain hand did not move at all, and said: "The people dare not bother Wei Guogong. ”

Xu Da was full of enthusiasm and was poured cold by this "Wei Guogong".

"Even if you don't know each other, your face is dusty, and your temples are slightly frosty." After his wife was stabbed to death, Xu Da, who has always only read military books, will also recite Su Shi's popular mourning poem, but he didn't expect that it was his daughter who he didn't know.

After entering the hall, Xu Da handed Yao Miaoyi a hand stove, and Yao Miaoyi hugged the hand stove and thanked her.

Xu Da said: "You are Feng'er, don't be so unfamiliar and polite, call me Daddy." ”

When I was alone with my cousin Zhu Shouqian, I shed tears, but when I saw my father at this moment, I was not as excited as I was just now. Yao Miaoyi said secretly, I killed your most trusted staff member Zhou Kui, although he kept saying that he was the culprit and had nothing to do with you, but the matter has come to this point, and we can never go back to the old days when father and daughter were close to each other.

My father and I have long been separated by countless lives, suspicions, and estrangements, and it is not easy to cross these deep chasms!

Yao Miaoyi said: "The folk girl doesn't dare, I'm afraid that only the father-in-law who adopted me knows a thing or two about the old things, wait for the father-in-law to come back and talk to Wei Guogong in detail, before that, the people's daughter was just a medical girl." ”

Seeing that his daughter was alien and cold, and seemed to be afraid, Xu Da was anxious, "No, you can go back to Zhanyuan with me now, that is your home, and I will definitely double the compensation." ”

Yao Miaoyi had a cold face and said, "Is Wei Guogong trying to rob the people's daughters?" ”

Xu Da said: "You are my daughter." ”

Yao Miaoyi retorted: "How to prove it? If my parents were to be their father, would I not be ashamed of their nurturing grace? ”

Xu Da Moran, when she was a child, Feng'er Bingxue was cute, like a jade doll, without birthmarks and special moles, and his wife couldn't wait to take her in her mouth and protect her carefully, not to mention any scars. Except that this face is similar to his wife, there is really nothing to prove the identity of his daughter.

According to the confession of the four princes, the queen sent her henchmen to Suzhou and other places to search for half a year in vain, and time has long been erased.

But I have to say that Yao Miaoyi's words also make sense. Xu Da felt strange that ordinary grassroots people, as long as there was a glimmer of hope to climb to the position of the powerful, they would hold on like grasping a life-saving straw, but why did her daughter push the opportunity outward?

Father and daughter heart-to-heart, Xu Da instinctively felt his daughter's rejection of him, he meditated hard, and asked: "You grew up in Suzhou City, when I attacked Suzhou City with King Kaiping, did you have family members and friends who died in that war?" ”

In this way, it can also explain the daughter's defense.

Yao Miaoyi said: "As early as before the Duke of Wei and the King of Kaiping besieged the city and attacked Zhang Shicheng, the father-in-law and the brother-in-law returned home and said that there must be a fierce battle, and persuaded the family and the leaders to pack up and take refuge in the countryside or other peaceful places. Minnu and Wei Guogong have no grievances. ”

Xu Da said secretly, this Daoyan Zen master really has some knowledge, and he is used to judging the situation and sizing up the situation, no wonder the emperor will send him as an envoy to Goryeo. Count the days, I should be back when the spring opens, I have waited for ten years, and it doesn't hurt to wait for two more months, it's a big deal to send some safe people to Baihetang to serve and protect my daughter.

Yao Miaoyi really deserved to be her daughter, and suddenly guessed her father's intentions, and hurriedly said: "Wei Guogong, now the five princes are sitting in the people's daughter's pharmacy to see a doctor, and it is not easy to be disturbed by others...... Interfere with the lives of the people's daughters. ”

One more pair of eyes, one more danger of exposure.

was rejected by his daughter, Xu Da was very disappointed. But after thinking about it, my daughter grew up in a harsh environment, and she had the courage to join the army for her brother, she saved lives and helped the wounded when she was a military doctor, and moved to Jinling after retiring, which is also a miracle achievement, and even the princess can bear such a big pressure to give birth, which shows that her daughter is a very assertive person.

Such a person cannot be persuaded by someone in a few words.

Xu Da looked at his daughter greedily, his eyes were reluctant to blink, some of my family had the satisfaction and pride of a woman growing up, of course, it was more sour.

"Okay." Xu Da said with difficulty: "Then wait for Zen Master Daoyan to come back and see if he remembers anything." ”

Since she ruled out the suspicion that her father killed her mother from Zhou Kui, she has been relieved of her father. Yao Miaoyi looked at her father so disappointed, but she was actually a little unbearable, and said:

"Actually...... In fact, Wei Guogong doesn't have to be like this...... If the folk girl really didn't make a daughter and took it back, wouldn't it be a dove occupying the magpie's nest? The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. I heard from the prince of the county that there were liars who pretended to be Ling Qianjin, and they were kicked out of Zhanyuan together with their adoptive father and adoptive mother, and their adoptive father was also convicted of being in the army. ”

This is really true, about five years ago, a couple led a little girl with similar eyebrows and eyes to the door, saying that this little girl was Xu Feng who disappeared that year.

Although the little girl claims to remember many things clearly, she can also recognize several old people in the family, and her memories are also ambiguous, some are right and some are wrong. At that time, although Wei Guogong was puzzled in his heart, it was not good to push out the girl who was crying and holding his leg and called Daddy. So he took the girl into the garden with her adoptive father and adoptive mother, so that she could serve her for a living, and sent someone to check the details of the couple and verify their identity.

Three months later, the couple was proven to be a scammer. The woman is a widow who sings opera, and lives with her daughter. The man is simply a human tooth, and the human tooth is well-informed, and he has seen the portrait of Xu Feng when he was a child with a high reward, and saw that the widow's daughter looks similar to Xu Feng, so he has the idea of a strange commodity to live in.

Renyazi and the widow got married, secretly came to Jinling City, and bought a servant woman who was driven out by Zhan Yuan, the servant woman is an old man who has accumulated years, knows some characters and things of the Xu family, and tells these to the little girl, the little girl memorizes the diary at night, and then practices some etiquette, and after some time, there is also some Miss Qianjin's bearing!

When the incident happened at the east window, Xu Da was furious, and sent a hundred human teeth and canes to the border pass to fill the army. The widow wept bitterly and said that she had been deceived into marriage, and she did not know that her husband had used his crooked brains, and after getting married, her husband told this poisonous plan of impostoring and seeking wealth.

She was against it, but her husband threatened to sell their mother and daughter to a dirty place like the Qinglou if she didn't comply. She was a woman and a Taoist family, and she was powerless to resist her husband, so she had to obey.

Xu Da saw that the widow was coerced by the gangsters, and saw that the little girl was being used, crying pitifully, once such a girl lost her mother's support and became an orphan, the future will be miserable.

But the Xu family can't continue to raise this impostor who has been a "big lady" for three months. So Xu Da did not punish the widow and sent their mother and daughter away.

After the scandal of impostorization came out, the Xu family of Zhanyuan once became the laughing stock of Jinling City, and there is still a strange rumor of this "tanuki for the prince" in the neighborhood. When Xu Da saw Yao Miaoyi mention this matter, he thought that she was afraid that she would repeat the mistakes of the past in the future, and she was also punished, so she hurriedly explained:

"Rest assured, you're not like those crooks, you're ...... It's definitely my daughter. Zen Master Daoyan is highly respected, and there are Queen Ma and the Four Princes as guarantors, even if they ...... Anyway, I won't be guilty. ”

Xu Da was a little incoherent, he was not afraid of his sword on the battlefield, and he was as immobile as a mountain. But at this moment, he is really afraid of losing his daughter again, Xu Feng is not only the eldest daughter for him, but also his only sustenance for his first and final love.

Yao Miaoyi said: "If the truth of the day disappoints you, I hope that Wei Guogong will remember today's promise." ”

Xu Da said: "A promise is a thousand gold. ”

Yao Miaoyi suddenly changed the topic and asked, "Wei Guogong, I heard that Mrs. Xu and Ling Qianjin were assassinated and separated, can you find out the origin of those murderers?" ”

Xu Da's eyes showed resentment, and he shook his head heavily, "Not yet." ”

Yao Miaoyi asked again: "When the little girl went to Zhanyuan to pretend to be Ling Qianjin, did she ever encounter an assassination?" ”

Xu Da shook his head, "No." ”

Yao Miaoyi said: "The folk girl is foolish, the murderers who assassinated back then were either masked and disguised, and they were very confident that they did not show their true faces, and they were ordered to write down their appearance and figure, so when the murderers learned the news of the return of their daughter, they did not continue to assassinate and cut the grass to the roots; There is also a corollary, which is ......"

Yao Miaoyi paused, as if thinking about whether to say this sentence or not, and finally said in a low voice: "Maybe the murderers have already killed Ling Qianjin and dumped her corpse back then, knowing that this little girl is an impostor, and there is no need to continue to chase and kill." ”

Wei Guogong's face turned pale: Daughter, this is cursing herself to death!

Yao Miaoyi said calmly: "Wei Guogong, you should also know how fierce and suspicious the outlaws are, as long as there is the slightest suspicion, they will be ruthlessly eliminated, so the possibility of the former is not great, so the daughter has already encountered an accident." ”

Seeing that her father's face was getting more and more ugly, Yao Miaoyi threw out a glimmer of hope and said, "Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Ling Qianjin has indeed escaped." The gang of murderers was collectively exterminated by the people who bought the murderers, digging pits and burying their bodies, so they were confident that they would not show their flaws. ”

All kinds of inferences are methodical and have always remained calm. Xu Da remembered that the fourth prince Zhu Di told his daughter's experience and "merits" in recent years. Yes, such a smart, strong, and fearless daughter will definitely not be willing to be locked up in the mansion like ordinary ladies.

He is proud of his daughter today, but more distressed, "You have suffered a lot over the years." ”

Yao Miaoyi shook her head and said: "Some eat, some wear, and one skill that can save people and support myself, I am already very satisfied." ”

To be honest, whether it is the stepfather or the Yao family, it is really good for her, the adopted daughter. It's time to complain, isn't it a white-eyed wolf?

Xu Da said: "I will repay Zen Master Daoyan and the Yao family. ”

Never! If Uncle Yao's family is fine, they are all honest people, and there are no excessive requirements. If you are stained with the greedy aunt Gao Yao, who shouts "pity my widow and is unemployed" all day long, and can't wait to squeeze out two taels of oil with a pound of water, even the dignified Wei Guogong will be sucked dry by her!

Yao Miaoyi hurriedly said: "Let's talk about it after confirming the identity, the Yao family is also a solid family in Suzhou." ”

Xu Da asked hopefully, "Why did you talk about the assassination just now?" Isn't it...... Did you suddenly remember something? ”

Yao Miaoyi said: "If I were really Xu Feng, those murderers killed Mrs. Xu back then, and the hatred of killing his mother was not shared, if he didn't kill the enemy, how could he be a child?" If I were not Xu Feng, but a grass medicine girl, I would be valued by Wei Guogong, and I would be willing to do my best to help find the real culprit behind the scenes. ”

Yao Miaoyi's little abacus in her heart was to use the account book found in Zhou Kui's secret room on the day of the Double Ninth Festival to decrypt the truth of her grandfather Xie Zaixing's rebellion.

To solve this problem, whether Zhou Kui, who is the mastermind behind the murder of his mother, is Zhou Kui, who thinks he is the murderer, will be solved.
