Chapter 140: The Truth (Part II)

Wei Ming's body was tightly pressed against the wall, listening intently, and the man's low and trembling voice gradually came slowly from the other side through the thin wall.

"You're secretly investigating me? What is the purpose of all this trouble? Song Xiaoyi reprimanded angrily, but in his words, he obviously admitted that what Qiu Feng said was true.

"It didn't take much effort. Although Song Gongzi wiped the traces of the past very cleanly, my Lingshan Gang has been working hard in the rivers and lakes for all these years, and it is not difficult to find out this little secret of Gongzi. Qiu Feng sneered, the signature curvature of the corner of his mouth was a little cold, "But I'm very curious, Song Gongzi, as the only seedling of the Song family, grew up in Beijing since he was a child, why didn't he go to the Song Mansion after entering Beijing?" Doesn't Song Gongzi want to revisit his old place and relive his old memories? ”

The panic in Song Xiaoyi's eyes was clearly visible, and he said: "I....Since I've decided to leave, why bother with it." ”

It's a pity that Qiu Feng didn't buy his answer, "The Song family is also a famous family, and the Song family was deeply relied on by the first emperor during his lifetime, why did the son do everything possible to hide his identity?" He hasn't come back for so many years, and he hasn't even gone to his tomb to worship on Lord Song's sacrifice day? ”

"I just want to live the life of ordinary people, and I don't want to interact with any officials in the DPRK and China anymore, so... That's why I never came back. Moreover, I have my father's spiritual seat in my home, worship every day, and incense is continuous, so why do I have to come to the capital to worship and sweep?! Song Xiaoyi explained, but the reason was extremely far-fetched.

Qiu Feng asked aggressively: "Song Gongzi obviously did a good job in Dali Temple back then, even if Song Daren passed away, but the first emperor did not want you to leave Dali Temple, why did Gongzi resolutely choose to resign and leave Beijing and become a businessman?" And why did you change your name after you left Beijing and cut off your relationship with the past? Do you think the Song family is embarrassed? Or are you deliberately hiding from whom?! ”

Song Xiaoyi became more and more excited, and shouted hysterically: "I didn't! Why should I hide? I'm not afraid of anything! I know that I am not an official, so I choose to do business and choose to leave the capital! ”

"Don't be nervous, Childe, I'm just asking casually, I see what scares you." Qiu Feng was very satisfied with Song Xiaoyi's gaffe, and he knew that he had successfully broken down the opponent's defense line at this time. Qiu Feng picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and continued to ask, "Why don't we change the topic and talk about your father!"

Qiu Feng seemed to take a step back, but in fact, he was advancing by retreating, forcing the other party to the edge of the cliff step by step. At this moment, Song Xiaoyi's back was already soaked with cold sweat, but the other party seemed to refuse to let him go.

"Lord Song was honest and fair all his life, and even the first emperor favored him, and in the case of Yun Xiang's conspiracy back then, Lord Song personally presided over the trial, and in just half a month, he thoroughly investigated and dealt with all the people, and the means and abilities are really admirable!"

Hearing Qiu Feng talk about his father, Song Xiaoyi's eyes once again crossed a complex color, mixed with sadness, shame and strong guilt.

Qiu Feng turned a blind eye to this, poured a cup of hot tea for the other party, and said: "Lord Song has always been fair, but it's a pity that he left early, otherwise the current court wouldn't have asked Huo Pei'an to cover the sky with one hand, right?" However, Lord Song has always been strong-boned, why did he suddenly fall ill after the rebellion case was over? Did the doctor find out the cause? ”

Song Xiaoyi's body shook invisibly, he naturally knew the real reason why his father couldn't afford to be sick back then, and no one knew the whole thing better than him. But he couldn't say it, and he couldn't say it, so he held back for a long time before telling a lame lie: "My father was sick from hard work." ”

Qiu Feng didn't expose his lies, but just sighed heavily, and pretended to be sorry: "I see, it's a pity." ”

Memories and guilt hit Song Xiaoyi's heart like a flood, and even his breathing became rapid and difficult, he only felt that he had to leave this room quickly, leaving the unfathomable man in front of him, and he couldn't stay longer for a moment. "It's not early, if Qiu Gongzi has nothing else to do, I'll leave next."

After speaking, Song Xiaoyi walked towards the door quickly, and just took two steps, Qiu Feng's voice came from behind, faint and faint, as if there was no emotion. "Has Song Gongzi ever been to Yunxiang Mansion?"

Song Xiaoyi suddenly stopped, turned to look at Qiu Feng's back as if he had seen a ghost, and asked, "What did you say?!" ”

Qiu Feng still turned his back to Song Xiaoyi, and his deep timbre carried a little imperceptible sadness. "I think it's strange that Song Gongzi returned to Beijing this time, and he didn't even go back to the Song Mansion, but why did you go to the Yunxiang Mansion back then?"

Song Xiaoyi asked in disbelief, "You sent someone to follow me?!" ”

Qiu Feng didn't answer Song Xiaoyi's question, but continued to say to himself: "I don't know what the Yunxiang Mansion looked like now? The Si people have passed away, and the prosperity of the year has long been gone, so it must be barren and decaying, right? Yun Xu also had some friendship with your father back then, you should have also gone to Yunfu to play when you were a child, right? In the end, there are feelings, and it is human nature to go back and see. ”

Qiu Feng's words seemed to pierce Song Xiaoyi's heart, he lowered his head, and his clenched fists revealed that he was trying his best to endure at the moment. The floodgates of memories opened in an instant, like a surging tide pouring into his mind, and he clearly remembered that every time he went to Yunfu before, the pair of cute and clever children in Yunfu always followed his ass and called him Brother Song; He remembered the look of despair and sadness on the Yun clan's face when they were judged; He remembered Yun Xu's eyes looking at himself and his father before he died, and that look was neither hatred nor disappointment, but relief and forgiveness....Midnight dreamed back, that kind of look appeared in his dreams many times, lingering.

Song Xiaoyi was already on the verge of reason, but Qiu Feng didn't want to let him go, and the last sentence completely crushed him and made him collapse instantly. "Song Gongzi has ever dreamed of seeing an old man?"

Song Xiaoyi's eyes turned red instantly, how could he not have dreamed of it, over the years, the nightmare almost **** made him sleep unsteadily, every time he closed his eyes, he could see his father's disappointed eyes, see the scene of Yun Xu before he died, and hear the heart-rending cries and cries of everyone in Yunfu. This qiē is only because of him, it is he who ruined his father's innocence of sticking to his son, and it is he who killed dozens of innocent lives up and down the Yun family, even if he escapes to the ends of the earth, he can't get rid of the sins he once committed.
