The wedding feast continued, but a lotus pond as far away as a garden was very quiet, as if it was cut off from the vain liveliness of the wedding feast and the blessings of people against their will.

On a stilted building, the sound of a calm guzheng playing slowly wafts out, and the peaceful tone seems to be burning the civet incense around people, which is refreshing.

"Mr. Shangguan Yi, this way." A maidservant dressed as a palace maid brought the white-haired Shangguan Yi all the way to the lotus pond where no one was, "Mr. Shangguan Yi, be careful of the steps." ”

"Wait," although Shangguan Yi is old, he is not physically exhausted because of these roads, on the contrary, he should not be calm in his heart, since he saw a jade pendant with the word "jade" deliberately revealed when this little palace maid poured fruit wine for him, his heartbeat has been in a state of acceleration, "Where is the owner of the jade pendant?" ”

Seeing that she was almost gone, the little palace maid pointed towards the tall stilt building: "Mr. Shangguan Yi, listen." ”

I don't know if it's the mental effect or the sound of the guzheng has really become louder, Shangguan Yi's originally somewhat restless heart was filled with the music of this mountain stream, and the originally irritable and anxious heart seemed to be gradually soothed by the sound of the zither.

Suddenly, Shangguan Yi's eyes opened, and he heard that this song was adapted from a Jiangnan folk song, and this ballad was sung by him when he held her every day when his little daughter was still young and coaxed her to sleep.

The stilt building is only two stories high, Shangguan Yi quickly climbed the steps, the first thing that catches his eye is the back of a woman dressed in lilac clothes, this back, slender with tenacity, petite with incomparably huge strength, with the woman's fingertips flying, the guzheng under her hand played the familiar tone again and again.

"Yu'er?" Shangguan Yi asked tentatively.

At that time, the sound of the zither stopped, and the woman in purple slowly turned around, her quiet face was very similar to her little daughter playing the piano in the attic, but unfortunately, there was still a little difference.

"Who are you?" Shangguan Yi frowned, yes, who is this woman in front of her, she has a face similar to Yu'er, and she can also sing Jiangnan folk songs.

"Qin Yunuan, a folk woman, has seen Mr. Shangguan Yi." Qin Yunuan blessed her body slightly, raised her head, and the depth and firmness in her eyes once again made Shangguan Yi suspect that the person in front of her was really the reincarnation of his youngest daughter;

"Are you the Qin family?" Speaking of the Qin family, Shangguan Yi showed a not very happy expression, although he has been living in seclusion in Jiangnan for a long time and has not contacted his sister-in-law Shangguan Yuan in Beijing, but the death of his grandson Shangguan Rang still made this seventy-year-old man sad for a long time, when he knew that his grandson's death was related to the Qin family, Shangguan Yi did not leave a good impression on the Qin family.

"The woman's husband's surname is Leng." Qin Yunuan continued.

said that the surname is Leng, and it can still appear in the palace, it must be the Ning Wangfu that it is talking about.

"What if you are from Ning Wangfu, our Shangguan family and the Qin family have nothing to do with each other." Shangguan Yi was very indignant, and after saying that, he flicked his sleeves and turned around, looking like he was leaving.

"The maiden's surname is Yang, and her real name is Shangguan Yu." Qin Yunuan suddenly raised his voice and shouted.

Shangguan Yi paused, turned his head to look at Qin Yunuan, his eyes were full of suspicion.

"And that jade pendant," Qin Yunuan just finished speaking, and the little palace maid who had just led Shangguan Yilai handed over the jade pendant hidden in her sleeve, with the word "jade" clearly engraved on it, "Okay, Zhu'er, go down, don't let people find out." Qin Yunuan ordered Zhu'er to leave, spread out the jade pendant in his hand, handed it to Shangguan Yi and said, "This is a relic of my mother's death." ”

"Your mother is dead?" Shangguan Yi's eyes showed a sadness, and then he was stunned, "Why should I believe you." "How many years, how many years he has been looking for his little daughter but to no avail, how could he meet him at a chance wedding banquet.

Speaking of this little daughter, although she is a concubine, but her mother is also an extremely gentle talented woman, deeply favored by Shangguan Yi, it was Shangguan Yi himself who was negligent and did not take good care of the mother and daughter, and only after returning from a study tour did he know that his jealous sister-in-law Shangguan Yuan took advantage of his absence to drive the mother and daughter out of Shangguan Mansion, which is why for so many years, Shangguan Yi would rather live far away in Jiangnan than enter Beijing to enjoy happiness with Shangguan Yuan, he still hates the events of the year, I still miss this sensible woman and that sensible daughter.

Counting it, the youngest daughter should only be in her thirties this year, and he would rather she be alive than believe what Qin Yunuan said, she had already gone early.

In the face of Shangguan Yi's suspicions, Qin Yunuan can understand very well, the most difficult thing is undoubtedly to make Shangguan Yi believe in his identity, in fact, Qin Yunuan knows that Qin Zhen has always left a trick, and a jade pendant can't explain anything at all, Qin Qin Qin Yunuan really used this identity to recognize his relatives, in fact, he had already destroyed the most critical thing, but in a hundred secrets, he forgot one thing......

"This is an embroidered manuscript left to me by my mother, and it is all in her handwriting, and Mr. Shangguan Yi can tell at a glance whether what Qin Yunuan said is true or false." Qin Yunuan picked up the half-old yellowed manuscript that had been placed on the desk, yes, Qin Zhen missed it, he didn't know that the Yang family had left all his hard work to Qin Yunuan early, plus the Yang family's enlightenment was Shangguan Yi, and every word was taught by Shangguan Yi himself, which is the most powerful proof.

Shangguan Yi took the thin pile of booklets in disbelief, and only turned two pages slightly, and his eyes were already involuntarily red, this could not be fake, he remembered, he remembered.

"Yu'er, my Yu'er." A seventy-year-old man, at the moment, is as fragile as a child, "Child, come here." Shangguan Yi beckoned to Qin Yunuan, beckoned Qin Yunuan to his side, and looked at Qin Yunuan's face, which was like Shangguan Yu's, and his heart was even more touched, "Child, you have suffered, tell me how your mother died." ”

Finally waiting for this time, Qin Yunuan gritted her teeth and said, "She was killed by someone;

。 ”

"Really?" Shangguan Yi was shocked, he thought that his youngest daughter was already at the lowest point in his life when he was kicked out of Shangguan Mansion, knowing that this daughter of the Qin family was born to his youngest daughter, thinking of the days when his youngest daughter fell into the Qin family as a concubine, he was even more aggrieved for her, but now he knew that his youngest daughter died unexpectedly......

"Seriously," Qin Yunuan said seriously word by word, "It was none other than the Qin family's housewife who had committed suicide in the Madman Tower, Dou Qing'e." ”

Shangguan Yi sighed: "It was all my negligence back then, if not, I won't ......." "Yes, the youngest daughter was killed, but the person who killed her is also dead, and there is nowhere to ask for justice for the youngest daughter, except for sighing, what else can Shangguan Yi do at this moment?

"But Mr. Shangguan, think about it, if it wasn't for my father's acquiescence back then, how could the Dou clan so blatantly kill a person and escape with his whole body?" Qin Yunuan clenched his fists, since he completely broke with Qin Qian's face, Qin Yunuan investigated all the things that Qin Qin had done back then, it turned out that Qin Zhen was not the only one who failed back then, He Lian, since Qin Zhen began to participate in the imperial examination, he almost relied on women to climb up, and Qin Yunuan's mother-in-law Yang, or Shangguan Yu, was just a chess piece that Qin Qin wanted to use but failed to use.

"You mean?" Although Shangguan Yi concentrates on academics, he has lived for so many years, and he has also seen the intrigues and intrigues in the officialdom, if he thinks that he can be bullied by his Confucian background, it is really a big mistake.

"Back then, my father was bent on using my mother's true identity to have a relationship with the Shangguan family, but my mother would rather die than obey, and for my father, it was better to destroy what he couldn't use." Qin Yunuan's eyes were slightly cold, as if she was not commenting on her father, just a cold-blooded monster.

"You're talking about your own father, your biological father who is closely related to you." Shangguan Yi was a little surprised by Qin Yunuan's straightforwardness.

"That's right, I'm talking about my own father," Qin Yunuan raised his head, his eyes were full of stubbornness and unyielding, "It's the father who secretly blocked his son's career and planned to ruin his son's future step by step." ”

Originally, Leng Changxi had already arranged the road for Qin Baochuan, as long as he waited for the autumn Guozijian selection examination to send Qin Baochuan to participate, but now there is a big trouble, although those officials in charge of the selection have given Leng Changxi a few thin noodles on their faces, and they are full of answers, but now it is only a month away from the selection examination, and those officials who should have been promised have begun to push three and four one by one, even if Leng Changxi holds a knife on their necks, they will never give in, and later Qin Yunuan knew, Those officials were all protégés of Qin Zhen.

Leng Changxi originally had a more ruthless method, but she was rejected by Qin Yunuan, she wanted to let Baochuan enter the school in a beautiful way, so that everyone in the world knew Qin Baochuan's wisdom.

Qin Yunuan told Qin Zhen everything he had done in front of Shangguan Yi, and when Shangguan Yi heard how Qin Qin was indifferent to Qin Yunuan's sisters and left the two of them in the back room and ignored them, the old and vigorous green tendons seemed to explode.

"Bastard! That Qin Xiao'er is really a bastard! "Mr. Shangguan Yi is the originator of Confucianism in the Great Qi, and it is not an exaggeration for him to call anyone a child.

"Grandpa," Qin Yunuan shouted softly in a soft voice, "Father never regarded me and Baochuan as his own daughter and son, and the only relative of Yunuan and Baochuan in this world is you." ”

This grandfather shouted that Guan Yi's heart softened, he looked at Qin Yunuan, and seemed to transfer all his love for his little daughter to this granddaughter: "What about Baochuan you are talking about?" Can I meet him? ”
