Chapter 69: Follow-up
"Then let's remove the evil cult for Miss Zhang now."
It seems that the poisoning just now, the secrets of the Zhang family have nothing to do with him. Long Xinze took out the Ziliang jade seal with a smile, and said to Zhang Qining: "Miss Zhang, sit down, do you want to go out first?" The moment the evil came out was not pleasant. β
Zhan Suiyu stood beside Zhang Qining, his hand on her shoulder. "It's okay, I'm here."
Really. Long Xinze smiled, "It's okay." β
After speaking, he opened the box containing the jade seal, and the entire jade seal was displayed in front of Zhang Qining. The jade is crystal clear, without the slightest impurity, the finely carved and lifelike dragon is entrenched in the entire jade, and the blue-silver scattered powder of unknown things is like the Milky Way poured into it, so that the entire jade seal exudes a faint light.
They had seen this jade seal in Sumeru mustard seeds, but they didn't expect it to be used to pull out the jade.
"How?"
"Simple. Ziliangyu itself can stabilize the soul, and Xiao Chulan once used him to protect the dead soul of the Pingning County Lord. The poor path will later draw out the resentful spirit karma in Miss Zhang's body and seal it inside, and over time, the resentment will naturally be purified. In this process, they will resist, Miss Zhang may have to suffer a little, and Gongzi Zhan will stay here to talk to her and divert her attention, maybe it will be better. β
"Okay."
Long Xinze made a sword finger in his hand and drew a white light out of thin air in front of Zhang Qining, and at the same time, a sharp scream came from Zhang Qining's ears, and she couldn't help but cover her ears.
"Qi Ning!?" Zhan Sui Yu squatted down, supported her with one hand, and looked at Long Xinze nervously as she looked in pain.
Long Xinze drew the second drawing of the spell and said, "Don't be nervous, this is just the beginning." β
In the end, she has been by her side for three hundred years, and the reaction is so big. With this in mind, he drew a third drawing.
A trace of black-purple resentment overflowed from Zhang Qining's body, and along with it were the voices of many people.
"Not long after the third lady was born, the lady went. It's pathetic..."
"Master Zhang is depressed, I heard that his body is not very good? Have you already asked someone to teach the eldest lady and the second young master to handle family affairs? Could it be..."
"Don't talk nonsense, the Zhang family has a big business, and now that the children are still young, he will definitely be able to last for a few years."
"The third lady didn't cry or make a fuss when she was born, it's weird and scary, every time she feeds her, her eyes stare at me, I feel panicked."
"The children are almost four years old, why don't they speak? Why didn't the master, the eldest lady and the second young master come to take a look? β
"Anyway, it's not short of her eating, drinking, and wearing, what are you doing so much?"
"The lord is dead? I heard it was a suicide? β
"What kind of suicide, I heard that people in the past saw Mr. An coming out of the old man's house with Miss in his arms, maybe..."
Mr. An, An Yuanxi? Zhan Suiyu was stunned, he had something to do with Qi Ning's father's death?
Zhang Qining held his head, breathed out for a while, and breathed heavily. Of course, she heard those words.
Long Xinze's eyes deepened, he was viciously spoken of since he was a child, and he was treated indifferently by his family, it didn't taste good, no wonder his personality was so distorted. Although there are three days and months of suppression, it is really not simple to live normally in this kind of growth environment.
In the process of drawing the symbols, there are words such as the above, and the outline of the third lady of the Zhang family, who is withdrawn, few words, obedient, and lonely, and makes people dare not slack off, is outlined and formed in Zhan Suiyu's mind.
From those words, he knew that Qi Ning didn't like to talk in the Zhang family since she was a child, and the first time she spoke was when she was four years old, her brother Zhang Tingyu saw her fall to the ground, and her palm was knocked on the stone and bled to ask her if it hurt, she looked at her hand without any expression, and said softly: "It doesn't hurt." β
Zhang Tingyu was stunned when he realized that his sister could speak, and found that none of the people in Zhang Qining's courtyard were close to her, so he ran to her more diligently. Later, the Zhang family arranged an enlightenment teacher for her, and that person was An Yuanxi.
An Yuanxi is said to be a person who has not yet fallen off the list, and after coming to the Zhang family, he is not only very attentive to the third lady of the Zhang family, but also takes care of her daily life, and he notices some places that the maids and women can't notice. In addition, he is handsome and gentle, and the people in the house like him very much, and because he is the teacher of the third lady, he is also very polite and respectful to him.
However, Zhang Qining gets along with him day and night, and it stands to reason that such a gentle person is a stone and is hot, but she is indifferent, and her attitude towards An Yuanxi is even indifferent, but fortunately, An Yuanxi himself does not care.
Until Master Zhang finally couldn't stand the pain of being separated from Mrs. Zhang's yin and yang, he was martyred. An Yuanxi didn't know what mistake he had made, he was directly kicked out of Zhangfu, and died of illness within two years. Someone can't help but link these two things.
The rumors can't be suppressed, but the Zhang family is not an ordinary family, and Zhang Shihua, who is temporarily the head of the family, is not a vegetarian. Everyone understands that if the rumors are spread or something is made, Zhang Shihua will definitely not let himself go. So these are also passed on privately in the Zhangfu.
After a few years, those old people understood that only those who could keep secrets in the Zhang family could have a good life, and the rumors or something were cut off in their generation, and the juniors and newcomers who came in only knew that Zhang Qining was that the third lady was lonely and obedient, and everyone dared not approach, and anyone who did not meet her expectations would be kicked out of the Zhang Mansion.
The people in the house trembled more and more when they saw her, and in the end, Zhang Qining became the untouchable porcelain doll in Zhao Qianqian's mouth. To be analogous, the people of Zhangfu are afraid of Zhang Shihua, happy to Zhang Tingyu, and afraid of Zhang Qining.
Fear of getting into trouble, fear of hurting the innocentβthat innocent is themselves.
When Long Xinze finished drawing the complete spell, those gossiping voices also broke out in one breath, and finally were sealed in the purple beam jade seal by the charm, and the room suddenly fell silent. The noisy sound in his ears disappeared, Zhang Qining relaxed, gradually let go of his hand, closed his eyes and lay on his lap.
ββ¦ Qi Ning? β
"I'm fine... Always let you see such a bad side. Zhang Qining buried his head and said softly. You don't dislike me, do you? β
Zhan Suiyu hugged someone and stroked her back, "Not at all, I just feel sorry for you." β
"Hey, hey, do you remember that Poor Dao is also here?" Long Xinze completely sealed the evil in the purple beam jade, waved it into his sleeve, and turned around and said dissatisfied.
Zhan Suiyu is wholeheartedly on Zhang Qining, but it is not impossible to be polite for the sake of him helping to eradicate the evil spirit. "This time, there is a Lao Long Dao Chief, but if I remember correctly, the Sumeru mustard seed in the Paradise Pavilion was exchanged for Xia, and it was for the Dragon Dao Chief's own sake, I think it can be used as a reward. Long Dao Chang is a sensible person, please take care of yourself. With that, he picked up Zhang Qining and went to the bath.
Long Xinze snorted lightly, "Hairy boy, it's really okay for my daughter-in-law to spill her anger on Poor Dao when she suffers a crime." β
That's fine.
Zhang Qining was placed by Zhan Sui Yu next to the bath. In fact, this bath has two eyes, one is a cold bath and the other is a hot bath, and the hot bath is next to the cold bath, which is a separate place.
Zhan Suiyu passed by the big bronze mirror like a dressing mirror, and asked the doubts in his heart when he saw it for the first time: "Why do you put such a big mirror?" β
Zhang Qining leaned aside and said weakly: "Scare yourself." β
"Scare yourself?"
"Hmm. When I was so noisy that I couldn't even recognize myself, I was frightened when I saw my uncomfortable appearance in the mirror, and I woke up. β
No matter how painful it was in the empty room where she was alone, no matter how much pain it was, no matter what noise it made, no matter how much it was going to happen, no one would come in. She was the only one holding her head, crying, and inhibiting, and she could only keep herself awake through pain, coldness, and even fright.
"It's better later, I won't need it." Zhan Suiyu smiled, "Rest well after bathing, I'll help you get your clothes." β
"Hmm."
When Zhan Suiyu went out, Long Xinze had already left, and he had closed the door. He took the clothes from the cabinet and handed them to Zhang Qining.
"Can you do it yourself? Or I-"
Zhang Qining hugged his clothes and pushed him out, and Zhan Suiyu smiled.
Zhang Qining watched him go out and counted the clothes on his hands. There are so many layers, and he has them all. A man is not ashamed to rummage through a girl's closet. She flipped and flipped out of her belly pocket, her hands stiffening.
"He... It's a lot. "Giving her a belly pocket so calmly, shouldn't she be ashamed as a woman? She shook her head, what is there to be ashamed of, this shows - the exhibition consultant is very upright and does not squint! Xianggong needs to be like this to be reliable!
She continued to look at the next one, only to have a smile on her lips and bury her face in her clothes. There is no other reason, that is, she found that there is an extra belly pocket hooked behind the belly pocket in her hand. Poofβit doesn't seem so calm either. She could imagine Zhan Suiyu looking embarrassed when she took the clothes with red ears and burning face.
Looking at the way he didn't blush and his heart didn't beat just now, she thought that Zhan Gongzi would still deceive people, well, it's so cute!
When Zhang Qining came out after washing, she stared at Zhan Suiyu with a smile, and the person who watched covered her face with her hands.
"Ahem." Zhan Suiyu straightened his neckline, pulled the person to the side of the bed with a smile and covered the quilt, patted and coaxed him for a while, and it was almost a lullaby.
"Rest, I, I won't bother you. Shrewd. β
It wasn't until Zhan Suiyu went out to bring the door that she covered the quilt and laughed sullenly. Zhan Suiyu went out and leaned against the door, raising his hand to cover his face.
It's okay, when you get married in the future, you will get used to the clothes after taking them a few more times.
After lowering the anger, Zhan Suiyu walked out of the courtyard with his hands in his hands and found a way to find Zhang Tingyu. That Zhao Qianqian kept saying that Qi Ning killed his father, of course he didn't believe it, but he intervened in An Yuanxi halfway. Listening to the meaning of Zhang Shihua's words, it seemed that there were other things mixed in back then, of course, this must be inseparable from Qi Ning.
I can only go to Zhang Tingyu to ask clearly. He is the same age as Zhang Shihua, and what Zhang Shihua knew about back then, he should know.
*
"Young master, third aunt... Well, Mr. Zhan is coming to you. β
Zhang Tingyu looked up from the ledger, "He? What did he come to me for? , let him get out of here. β
Thinking that the female envoy was busy preparing for Qi Ning's birthday, the wedding sticker... When he saw it, he was upset. Zhan Suiyu, this bastard, dared to come to the door to obstruct his eyes.
"Uncle, I can hear it very clearly outside, if you want to drive me away, lower your voice and make up a reason." Zhan Suiyu leaned against the door uninvited, and Zhang Tingyu immediately put down the account book and came over to him.
"Zhan Sui Yu, swallow those two words back for me. Whose uncle is it called? β
Taste his words carefully, this vinegar is very strong. Zhan Sui Yu waved his hand to let the maid retreat.
"Words spoken are like water that has been spilled, and you can't take it back. Besides, I've passed the book to my parents, and now this family matter is settled. Neither the salutation nor the salutation is not bad for those days. β
Zhang Tingyu turned sideways, "If you shout more, I will listen more." Young Master Ben was not happy. β
Zhan Suiyu smiled and took two steps forward to hook his shoulder. "Oh, I'll be my own brother from now on. You see that my father will be Qi Ning's father-in-law in the future, wouldn't it be very convenient for you to learn something? β
"You get out of here!" Is he the kind of brother who sells his sister for glory?
It's a relative of Zhan Lingfeng Hero... It's a lot happier to think about it.
"What are you doing here?" Zhang Tingyu slapped his hand away.
Zhan Suiyu coughed, slowed down and said, "I want to ask my deceased father-in-law... and An Yuanxi's affairs. β
Hearing An Yuanxi's name, Zhang Tingyu's eyes instantly sank, and it was so cold that it could form ice slag.
"What do you know? I warn you, don't do anything about it in the presence of Anin. β
Not only Zhang Shihua, but even Zhang Tingyu has this expression, it seems that there is indeed a problem.
"There is a maid named Zhao Qianqian in your family, the one who was looking for trouble on the street last time. She just poisoned Qi Ning, and was pressed down by your sister to prepare to send her to the official. She talks about old things, and I'll come to you to ask what's going on. β
"What did you say?" Zhang Tingyu's eyebrows froze, "What nonsense is she talking about in front of A-Ning?" Do you believe it? Zhan Sui Yu, don't make a fuss, Ah Ning, she-"
"Of course I know who Qi Ning is. So I came to ask you, I didn't ask her, she used to splash dirty water on herself to tease me. β
"You get the idea." Zhang Tingyu looked at him a little more pleasantly.
"Alright, uncleβ"
"Huh?" Zhang Tingyu glanced at him.
"Uh, there are few chapters." Zhan Sui Yu stopped teasing him. "Tell me, what the hell happened back then?"
"First of all, what do you have in mind to inquire about this?"
Zhan Sui Yu moved and said, "Of course, it is to protect my daughter-in-law, your sister." "In the past, Qi Ning didn't like to take care of these, and let people abuse them openly and secretly, so he was forced to suffocate into the pitiful way he is now, and he also screamed in pain, but recently he will be coquettish.
"Laugh and laugh, laugh and laugh at what?" Zhang Tingyu looked at him and laughed weirdly.
"You want to hear it, okay." Zhang Tingyu walked over and sat down, remembered the old things from many years ago, and said: "First, A-Ning didn't kill his father, because my father was depressed for many years because of the death of my mother, and in the end, I really couldn't stand it and went with her." β
Zhan Suiyu frowned, "Then how did it be rumored to be like that?" β
Thinking of this, Zhang Tingyu also sighed, remembering his father's expression of holding on to him in a breath.
"The bad thing is that A-Ning, who is not usually close to her father, somehow went to her father's that day, and she was seen being carried out of the house by An Yuanxi's animal. Seven-year-old dolls kill people, and they can figure it out! β
Zhang Tingyu just wanted to scold An Yuanxi beast? Zhan Suiyu smelled something was wrong.
"My father wiped his neck with a long sword, and he happened to be seen by A-Ning. At that time, I was not present when An Yuanxi carried her away, and when I arrived, my father pulled me with a breath and said that it was not about Qi Ning, and the other important thing was to drive An Yuanxi away! β
The old man usually ignores it, but there must be a reason why he suddenly said so before he died.
Zhan Suiyu: "What did your father see?" β
Zhang Tingyu clenched his hands, after so many years, he was still angry, and there was a killing intent in his eyes, and then anger.
"See what? I saw that beast had bad intentions towards A-Ning! β
