Xia Fanxing's heart suddenly lifted.

Half an hour passed. He babbled to himself in front of Gong Yutao's bed for a long time, telling her who he was and which sect he came from. But he had no idea if she was unconscious and unable to respond, or if she was too weak to speak.

At this time, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the corridor, and Zheng's mother ran up with a bowl of steaming mulberry stewed chicken soup on the dining table, and eagerly patted Gong Yutao's pale cheeks, "Childe, she, she fainted?"

Xia Fanxing nodded helplessly. Mama Zheng immediately sat down, scooped a spoonful of bright red soup, and blew it on the side of her mouth. Her face was full of distress, and her mouth kept sighing.

Xia Fanxing sat beside her and did not speak. Mother Zheng spoonful by spoonful of the tonic decoction to Gong Yutao's pale lips. After a while, I couldn't help but start chattering.

"This child has lived with us since he was a child. Since I was a child, I didn't like to talk to others, so I was a little closer, alas..."

"When she was a child, she was shy when she saw outsiders, and she always played the wrong Yaoqin when she held it. When I was sixteen, I had no choice but to let her pick up customers..."

The people looked at her as thin and weak, and refused to speak. It's easy to bully her. This girl was born wooden, and she never said anything when she was bullied. The other girls didn't want to see her either... Now, the older I get, the more I refuse to talk to people, even to me. ”

"Over the years, she must have suffered a lot of grievances. But Yu Tao suffered silently. Do you know, if she told me that any dead thing dared to bully her, the old lady would not let him enter the Tang Ming Building again! But she is like this, she never cries, never shouts, does not scream, does not make trouble..."

"If it weren't for the two brutes who went too far today, if it weren't for your help, she would definitely endure it any longer. I've figured it out now, those guys who often come to her on weekdays must be looking at her as a bully, and they are all perverts who take pleasure in torturing her......!

Xia Fanxing looked at Zheng's mother while feeding Gong Yutao in a coma, scolding and muttering. He sighed deeply-this masked pervert, but Yang Guozhong's eldest son Yang Xuan! No matter how big the background of the Tang Minglou is, Xia Fanxing doesn't believe that Zheng Ma can give Yang Xuan any color.

Moreover, Yang Xuan's performance tonight was extremely abnormal. Therefore, Xia Fanxing did not tell her Yang Xuan's identity out of various considerations. just said slowly, "Mama Zheng, don't let her do this again." She can play the piano and can be a kabuki. Even if she doesn't play well, but her character... I can't let her suffer like this anymore. ”

"Childe, you're wrong. She either doesn't play well, or she's afraid of life, and she always makes mistakes in front of others. When she used to play the piano for me, she played it very well. If she could be at half the usual level in front of others, I wouldn't let her pick up customers......"

Half of the soup was fed to Gong Yutao's mouth. Her face miraculously improved a little, and her paleness lightened a little. But he still closed his purple eyes, and there was no sign of waking up. Mama Zheng put the soup bowl back on the table and sighed.

"That Zhang Yaoqin is also a good thing, this kid has been playing for almost twenty years..."

Xia Fanxing suddenly stood up, approached her, and asked extremely seriously, "Mama Zheng, now I am very serious about asking you something. More than 20 years ago, there was a kabuki named Xueliu who lived in the Tang Ming Building. Then she left because of something. You must know the story about her. Moreover, now in my opinion, Miss Peach must have something to do with Snow Willow, right!"

After saying it like a cannon, Zheng's mother's face changed dramatically. She blinked, stunned for a long time before stammering, "You... How could you ask about her... Elder Li didn't say that you were the Tu Feng Sect... Wait, Tu Feng Zong?!"

"You, you are the child in Xueliu's belly when she left!" Zheng's mother wiped her eyes vigorously, almost shedding old tears, and said with great excitement, "Oh my God! It's really like her! I should have seen it a long time ago!"

"I..." Xia Fanxing saw Mama Zheng's expression, knowing that what the master told him was true. He couldn't help but get excited, and he was speechless for a while.

"Tu Pig Sect, Slaughter Pig Sect. Yes, she mentioned it to me shortly before she left! Your name is Xia Fanxing... Xia is also her surname! Look, at the age of twenty, she is a talented person and a disciple of the Eight Great Ancient Sects. If she can see you, she will be very happy..."Zheng's mother stood up, looked at Xia Fanxing's whole body like a grandson, and patted his cheek excitedly.

Xia Fanxing kept smiling. Finally, when Mama Zheng's emotions calmed down a bit, he said very seriously, "Master has told me everything about my parents." Do you know, I, my mother, where did she go after she left the Ming Building?"

Mother Zheng seemed to know that he would definitely ask this question, and shook her head helplessly, "Young Master Xia, that late night around twenty years ago, Xue Liu was in a hurry. Didn't mention it to anyone. It's a man who looks like a Taoist, I think it should be your master. Took her away. She only came to my room to see me once before leaving, and told me that the Yaoqin she had been carrying was in her room. ”

"If your master also said that he doesn't know where Snow Willow is... Most likely, after she entrusted you to the Tu Feng Sect, she left alone. No one knows where she went. Maybe it's possible to return to your hometown. ”

Xia Fanxing was disappointed, he sat down to the side as if he was deflated, and Zheng's mother lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking. After a while, Mama Zheng picked up the soup bowl again, frowning and muttering, "Why is it so cold..."

Xia Fanxing stepped forward and stretched out his hand, "I'll just heat it with my palm." Mama Zheng, can you tell me something about my mother? Sister Xijun said that my mother doesn't like to talk by nature, she only does kaki in the Ming Building, and she doesn't have deep relationships with others, and she only has a close relationship with you... Just like this Peach Girl. What is the relationship between the two of them?"

"Mama Zheng, please tell me about my mother. I only found out about my background not long ago, and I have never met my mother. My father passed away a few years ago... She's my only relative. But I don't know where she is or how to meet her..."Xia Fanxing said eagerly, confiding his most sincere feelings. After learning his true background, he had an obsession with this mother who did not exist in his memory at all.

Mama Zheng drooped her eyelids, nodded after a moment, smiled and said, "Xueliu is your mother, but maybe she is not your only relative." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Mother Zheng looked at Gong Yutao, whose face had improved a lot, on the bed. Then he put a spoonful of bright red soup into her mouth and slowly spoke.

"Rain peach. Unexpectedly, Xue Liu's son saved Yu Tao from those two brutes... Fate..."

The warmth of memories appeared on Zheng's mother's face, and the movement of feeding the soup in her hand was also slower, and she looked at Gong Yutao on the bed kindly, and told Xia Fanxing a lot of the past.

"Snow Willow came here twenty-three years ago, and she was pregnant with you twenty years ago and left. For three years, she rarely spoke to others, and others rarely noticed her. But she was willing to communicate with me. She is a person with a great story. It's not very old, but it's very experienced and mysterious. I don't know what happened in the Hongxing Building in Fan Yang before she arrived. In the past three years, Xueliu herself, or the story between her and Xiao Song, I can't tell you enough in two or three days......"

Zheng's mother told slowly, which brought Xia Fanxing a different sense of security. He slowly calmed down, and the feeling was pleasant, quietly listening to a long-awaited story...

It turned out that the rain peach girl who helped Xia Fanxing was actually coming to the Tang Ming Tower with Xia Xueliu twenty-three years ago. Xia Xueliu was carrying a Yaoqin on her back at the time, holding Xiaoyu Tao's swaddling clothes in her arms, and took advantage of the night to come to the Ming Building. Zheng's mother let the two of them live in, but Xia Xueliu never wanted to say that Gong Yutao had a relationship with her.

Zheng's mother didn't ask much. However, in the past three years, Xia Xueliu has treated Gong Yutao like her own daughter. Although Xia Xueliu told the others in the Ming Mansion that this little girl was surnamed Gong. But Zheng's mother always felt that the two of them had some kind of blood relationship. Therefore, she just said just now that maybe Xia Xueliu is not Xia Fanxing's only relative. Maybe... Gong Yutao is his sister by blood.

Xia Fanxing felt quite interesting when he heard it. Fortunately, just now he firmly broke into the door and drove away Yang Xuan and the others. Although I didn't think about it that much at the time. However, I really saved the right person.

"Fate, fate..."

Xia Xueliu and Xiao Song first met more than a year after she entered the Ming Building. The passionate love between the two lasted for more than a year. It wasn't until she learned that Xia Xueliu was pregnant with Xia Fanxing that she had to end this fate. Xia Xueliu also left the Tang Ming Building. During the period when Xiao Song and Xia Xueliu were in love, he would be blindfolded when he came to Minglou, and basically no one knew his true identity and which official in the court was.

Xia Xueliu only told Zheng Ma his true identity. She was shocked at the time. What shocked me was not why Xiao Song was so obsessed with a singer of the Qinglou. What shocked her was that Xue Liu would completely give her sincerity to a man, a man who had already shown his old age.

She knows Xia Xueliu's character very well. is cold, for everyone except Zheng Ma, she is so cold. Except for Zheng's mother, her only friend is that Zhang Yaoqin. When playing for ordinary guests, Mama Zheng could tell that she had no feelings, even if there were no flaws. It's not that you are Prime Minister Xiao Song, it's that Yang Youxiang, who is now in power, came to Minglou, and she is also very sure that Xueliu will not have too many emotional changes. Only Xiao Song, she poured everything she had into this man who was over the age of six.

Later, she finally understood one of the reasons. The Yaoqin that Xueliu has been carrying with her since Fan Yang has a story in it. Zheng Ma also wondered why such a genius Qin Ji was almost unknown and lived in Chang'an. Although Xia Xueliu didn't tell her the story, Zheng's mother, who had seen countless people's hearts, knew that her heart was all hidden in that Yaoqin, and her worries were quiet.

And Xiao Song, he can really understand the meaning of Xia Xueliu's every song. Even if it is the song "Plum Blossom Introduction" by Snow Willow, Xiao Song can hear the grievance hidden in the deepest part of her heart. This is more profound than the bosom friend of the child, the young and beautiful Xia Xueliu, through this old minister, read his true heart.

So the secret story between the two began to be quietly written. Xiao Song often patronizes the Tang Ming Tower once in two or three days, always hiding his identity. Xueliu once told Zheng's mother that Xiao Song had never mentioned anything like accepting her as a concubine. Both of them knew that there was no need for this.

She must have told Xiao Song her own story, and it must be a very poignant story. Xia Fanxing's face was already full of curiosity, and he had never been so eager to get close to his mother, who didn't know where he was, as he was at this moment.

"Actually, I don't think Yu Tao should be Xue Liu's daughter. Because when she knew she was pregnant with you, that look I had ever seen, it was a... Well, I'm very excited, the excitement of being a mother for the first time. It was as if she had come into contact with the latest and most precious things. I advised her to take medicine and not to cause trouble to Lord Xiao. You also know that there were people running on him at that time, don't be caught because of the problem of illegitimate children. But she firmly denied it. After Xiao Song found out, the two of them discussed it for a long time, and finally came up with a way to send you to Tu Feng Sect. ”

"Xue Liu seems to have some connections with the Dao Masters of the Tu Feng Sect for a long time. I don't know how she got into it. When she left Minglou at that time, her belly was already quite big. During that time, I helped her cover up, and I didn't let her play in front of others for several months, except for Lord Xiao, of course. When the Taoist of the Tu Pig Sect took her away late that night, Xue Liu asked me to pass on her Yaoqin to Yu Tao, and left her five guqin music scores that she had created in the Ming Mansion for three years, and she had never played them in front of people..."

Yu Tao had little impression of her. Because she is a child left by Xueliu, I take more care of her. But the older the child is, the more like Snow Willow, the more he has a temper and character. Alas. She didn't play well in front of others, and I really couldn't make her not take guests, which made her suffer so many grievances over the years. She had been silent for too long, and there was nothing I could do to help her. Today's events are too serious for me to ignore anymore. She started picking up customers at the age of sixteen, and her grievances added up to no less than today......"

Xia Fanxing looked at the poor woman on the bed, took a deep breath, and said, "Mother Zheng, can you let Miss Yutao redeem herself?"

Mother Zheng turned her head, looked at him in surprise, and shook her head, "The Tang Ming Tower is no better than other places. Our boss is also a famous figure in Chang'an Fengyue Field, and he is not short of this money. Moreover, there are very few cases like her. ”

"Then what will it take to stop her from doing this kind of drudgery! Please give her some more time to practice the five tunes that my mother left behind." You also know that if it weren't for me today, she would have been ruined at the hands of those two beasts! Even if she healed from her injuries, anyone with her character could bully her, and if she didn't tell others, something would happen one day!"

Xia Fanxing stood up abruptly and said righteously. He is Xia Xueliu's biological son, and the girl who fell into a coma in bed can be said to be her adopted daughter for three years. This also made Xia Fanxing have some different feelings. According to his age, Gong Yutao is three years older than him, but at this time, Xia Fanxing saw a weak woman who was completely helpless and helpless, and she needed someone to protect her!

There may also be some guilt. He thought in his head. If it weren't for giving birth to him, Xia Xueliu would not have left Ming Tower. will definitely be able to protect Yutao to grow up well, and be a singer like her, over time, Gong Yutao will definitely be famous in Chang'an...

"Zheng... Mom, thirst..."An extremely faint sound suddenly sounded on the bed, and the two hurriedly leaned over. Before Mama Zheng could respond to Xia Fanxing's words, she hurriedly squeezed out a smile after hearing Gong Yutao's voice, and replied repeatedly, "Okay, okay, girl, you wait." Over here... There's no water here, I'll go down..."

Zheng's mother opened the door and ran downstairs. Xia Fanxing sat on the edge of Gong Yutao's bed, looking at her thin face, cold sweat dripping onto the quilt. She was too weak, too weak to have the strength to open her eyes. Xia Fanxing sighed deeply, but he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Summer... Xia Fanxing?" She slowly opened her lips and said these three words with difficulty. When Xia Fanxing was talking to herself, it was not that she didn't hear it, but because she had lost too much blood, she didn't have the strength to speak.

"I'm in.... Are you better?" Xia Fanxing heard this voice, and quickly got up slightly and said softly.

Gong Yutao hummed slightly. "Just now... Does that boy know you?"

Xia Fanxing didn't expect her to say this as soon as she opened her mouth. He said in a deep tone, "I don't know how he knew me, and I don't know why he ran away when he saw me. Yu Tao, this person is Yang Guozhong's eldest son Yang Xuan. I punched him three times... However, this man is a Lord who cannot be provoked. ”

"They... That's what they all say. Every son who came was very powerful, and the background was very large... I was scared, so I just..."

"Thank you......" said him, a tired look appeared on the girl's pale face.
