Chapter 097: Chen Shuo's Heartache and Remorse
Replace after five minutes
The young man who was called Xiao Xianlang didn't seem to care about the sarcasm in his words, and only replied: "Private matters at home, how can they be casually passed out as jokes for others to talk about, if it is really a disease of lovesickness, it will not be known to Zhu Jialangjun, how can Zhu Shilangjun know better than me, there is a little lady in my Xiao family who has a lovesickness, could it be that someone from my Xiao family told you?" ”
This is also a change of direction of irony, he arbitrarily arranged rumors to slander others, and at the moment, the eyes of the surroundings looked at the Lang Jun surnamed Zhu, all revealing disdain, and the face of the surnamed Zhu Lang Jun was also blue on the ground, and then turned pale again.
"What are you looking at? I'm just asking. After that, Zhu Shilang waved his long sleeves, and hurriedly ran towards the tea shop with a few entourages, and muttered when he left, "What are you pretending, it's just an unfavored abandoned son of the Xiao family, do you really think that if you are literary and stylish, you can occupy the reputation of the first handsome man in Jiankang City?" ”
Xiao Xian still didn't care, and beckoned the little guy behind him to leave.
At this time, a boy's voice came from the ground and asked, "Wait, Xiao Xianlang, are you from the Xiao family of Lanling?" ”
It was the phoenix who went and returned.
The young man immediately ordered the little servant to stop the wheelchair, and his eyes also looked in the direction of the phoenix.
"Exactly, dare to ask this little man, what do you do?" Xiao Xian asked politely.
Phoenix was about to answer, but Xiao Moyu preemptively said: "I have heard the name of Jiankang Xiao Lang for a long time, and my brother is just a reputation for Mujun, just say hello." ”
The phoenix was stunned, and when he was about to say something, a ridicule sounded around him.
"It turned out to be a person who didn't know the height of the sky and wanted to cling to the Xiao family!"
After all, the Xiao family is a famous nobleman, although it has now fallen, there are still many scholars from poor families who want to take the opportunity to climb in order to get the opportunity to be recommended to join the office.
But this kind of clinging behavior is often even more despised by the children of these scholars.
Just as everyone was waiting to see the show, they didn't expect Xiao Xian to have no anger on his face, and he actually smiled and nodded at Xiao Moyu, and then ordered his entourage to push the wheelchair away.
After Xiao Xian walked away, Phoenix couldn't help but ask: "Brother Qing, why didn't you let me tell him clearly just now, you can also recognize the people of the Xiao family." ”
Xiao Moyu shook his head: "You also saw it just now, it's just to say hello, we will also be despised by others, it can be seen that the southerners' hierarchical concept is even worse than that of the north, if we rashly admit our relatives, it will backfire, no matter how much we say, they won't believe it." ”
Only then did Phoenix nod: "Also, those scholars value their identities, and they will never take the Shu clan in their eyes, let alone rashly accept a stranger as a child of the family." ”
People in this era still value surnames and pure bloodlines, even if you are in a high position and do not have a noble surname, you can only be regarded as a poor family, and those who pretend to be the surnames of the scholars are not even guaranteed heads.
"What then?" Phoenix was a little anxious, and then thought of something, "But, Brother Qing, didn't my aunt leave you a token?" She said, you can go back to Xiao's house to recognize your relatives. ”
Referring to those tokens, Xiao Moyu was silent for a moment, Fang shook his head and said: "It's not enough to have tokens, first, we don't know why my mother left the Xiao family and went to the land of Northern Qi, second, I don't know who my father is, and why did my mother only take me to live alone and never mention my father, and third, what do the people of the Xiao family think of my mother?" Will they really recognize me as a granddaughter? ”
When Xiao Moyu said this, the phoenix also fell silent.
"That's right, but it can't be because of these reasons, Brother Qing won't go back to the Xiao family, right?"
Seeing the frustration on the boy's face, Xiao Moyu smiled, took his hand and walked towards the outside of the wine shop.
"It's definitely going back, but not now." With a whispered mutter, Xiao Moyu asked, "Phoenix, have you ever found out where Shen Zhonglun lives?" ”
Xiao Moyu asked, the boy seemed to remember, and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I have already inquired, he lives in Yuliu Lane on the north bank of the Qinhuai River, however, the Shen family doesn't seem to be doing well recently, and is preparing to hold a funeral." ”
"Funeral?"
Phoenix nodded: "Yes, I heard that because of the death of the right guard general Han Zigao, his daughter suffered from lovesickness, and she was about to die, and I also heard that because of this Han Zigao, several noble women in Jiankang City suffered from this disease." ”
"Han Zigao?" Hearing this name again, Xiao Moyu suddenly felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, "Who is he?" ”
Phoenix smiled and said: "This Han Zigao, and the north of Gao Changgong as big fame, there is a saying, 'the north has Gao Changgong, the south has Han Zigao', a few years ago this Han Zigao was known as the first beautiful man in the south, I heard that it was originally just a humble commoner, to weave shoes for a living, waiting for the chaos of the scene, met to Wuxing to serve as the Taishou Chen Wendi Chen Qian, because of its 'beautiful appearance, like a woman' was favored by Emperor Chen Wen, and later brought to his side to fight everywhere, repeatedly made military achievements,
After his death, he passed the throne to his nephew, who was Emperor Wen of Chen, so this Han Zigao also shared the wealth and became a general with a heavy army in Nan Chen, and he was in power for a while, but he really didn't expect that Emperor Wen Chen had only died for two years, and Han Zigao was wiped out. ”
"By the way, this Han Zigao was executed by the new emperor of Chen Guo on charges of treason."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that Xiao Moyu's face gradually turned pale, and there were also fine ripples of light in his dark pupils.
"Brother Qing, what's wrong with you?"
Section 004 Lovesick tears
Xiao Moyu didn't know why, when she heard that Han Zigao had been wiped out, there was a faint dull pain in her heart, and sometimes there was a certain sadness that was difficult to let go, she didn't know Han Zigao before her death, so this emotion is likely to be the residual consciousness of the original owner.
"My father and my mother have been wronged, they are not tolerated by the world, they cannot stay together in life, and they cannot be together in death, since you occupy my body, please seek justice for my father and my mother, and wash away the grievances."
The words of the original owner's departure and some vague images reappeared in my mind.
"You are just a lowly illegitimate daughter, my grandfather took you in and took you in to pity you, don't think that if you hook up with my sixth brother, you can enter the door of the Xiao family and be the wife of our Xiao family, you are a lowly thing that can't even be taken out, how do you want our Xiao family to do it for you? How dare you still want to avenge your father? It's ridiculous! ”
Could it be......
Xiao Moyu opened her eyes again and silently pondered for a moment, because of this indescribable pain of sadness, her forehead was covered with a layer of fine beads of sweat.
"Phoenix, you just said that it was Chen Ba who killed Hou Jing first, so how did he die this Hou Jing?"
I don't know why Xiao Moyu suddenly mentioned Hou Jing's death, Phoenix was slightly stunned, and replied: "I heard that it seems to have been killed by one of his subordinates, that is, Yang Kan's son Yang Yan, after killing, he also gave Hou Jing's body to Wang Sengfen, the general of Wang, and then Wang Sengban cut off his hands and handed them to Gao Yang, the then Qi lord at that time, and sent his head to Jiangling to Xiao Yi, the then Emperor of Liang Yuan, and the body was thrown in Jiankang City, and was eaten by all the people in Jiankang City, Even the princess of Liyang, whom he forcibly married, ate a piece of his meat! ”
Liyang?
At that time, Liyang was only fourteen years old, right? And the men of the Xiao family, who are her father and brother, how can they bear it?
"Sister Yuqing, your handwriting is so beautiful, why don't I come to your house often in the future, you can teach me to write?"
Seeing that Xiao Moyu's eyes seemed to be full of tears, the waves were flowing, flashing with an unusually fragile crystal, the phoenix was a little helpless for a while, and hurriedly said: "Brother Qing, I, did I say something wrong?" ”
Realizing that her emotions were wrong, Xiao Moyu quickly retracted her mind and met the boy's gaze and smiled: "It's okay, let's go, let's go to Yuliu Lane now!" ”
"Good!"
When the two came to the Shen family in Yuliu Lane, they saw that the Shen family's house had been hung with white silk, and they could faintly hear the cry coming from the house.
Xiao Moyu stayed at the entrance of the alley for a long time before saying to Phoenix: "Go knock on the door!" ”
When the door was knocked, the women of the Shen family were crying in a girl's boudoir, and the sound of grief spread to almost every corner of the courtyard, and Shen Zhonglun, the head of the Shen family, was also overwhelmed, and at the same time there were some unspeakable humiliation, anger and grievances in his heart.
