Chapter 462: Starry Night
Xie Sicheng rolled over, his head hurt, but he couldn't sleep.
He simply got up and walked out of the tent.
The night sky of the grassland is extraordinarily vast, and the sky is as starry as the sand of the Ganges, which seems to be close at hand, and it seems to be far away.
Xie Sicheng stood under the stars for a long time, and the big woman he met in Alilun Racecourse came to his mind.
He deliberately took the initiative to say that his surname was Xie, and the vigilance that flashed in the woman's eyes was taken in by him.
There are very few people with the surname Xie in this dynasty, but the Tartar woman clearly knows it.
Alilun Racecourse must have something to do with Xie Honglin.
But what happened to Huo Jiu?
Xie Sicheng smiled bitterly, how many years has he known Huo Jiu? Even he couldn't tell.
And he didn't realize that Huo Jiu, who was famous in both Hangzhou and Beijing, was actually a woman!
Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, in the Shuangjing Hutong of the capital, there was a nine ladies, who was said to be from the south, a relative of the Huo family.
In September, the nine ladies of the Huo family left Shuangjing Hutong in a sedan chair and never returned.
And then, it was rumored that Huo Jiu, who was already terminally ill, suddenly appeared fifty miles away from the capital, he was dressed very dazzlingly, it was difficult not to attract attention, not to mention that he still had Zhan Huai by his side.
The news of Huo Jiu's appearance soon reached the ears of Cui Niangzi, and Cui Niangzi immediately sent someone to follow Huo Jiu.
And he also saw Huo Jiu with his own eyes on the way, it was Huo Jiu, and it was no one else.
But when he came to Xuanfu, even in the Four Seasons Hall, he never heard a word from Huo Jiu.
At the same time, he heard another name - Huo Jiu Niangzi!
Xie Sicheng carefully inquired about Huo Jiu's appearance, her eyebrows flew obliquely into her sideburns, her apricot eyes were as clear as water, she was fourteen or fifteen years old, and she spoke with a Jiangnan accent.
That is Huo Jiu, Huo Jiu who I have known since I was in Jiangnan.
Xie Sicheng laughed self-deprecatingly, who would have thought that the Huo family in Hangzhou would let a woman pretend to be an adopted son, what was the Huo master who was known as the little God of Wealth in Jiangnan?
He will not forget that in Luoyang City that year, Cuixian personally told him that Master Huo bought a boy and a girl in Luoyang, but the wife of the family did not want this daughter, so there was a matter of Sijin being fostered in Wanhua Temple.
And he had also seen with his own eyes that Master Huo walked out of the inn, and behind him, the two nurses were each holding a child, the older one was Si Jin, and the other one who was still in swaddling clothes was Huo Jiu.
When Master Mo Feihuo bought his two children, he had already decided to let one of them dress as a man?
But why is it Huo Jiu, not Sijin?
If the one who dresses as a man is Si Jin, wouldn't everything in Huo Jiu now be Si Jin?
But thinking about it like this, Xie Sicheng felt that he was very excessive, a child like Huo Jiu seemed to be born rich and noble, perhaps, even if she was the one who was sent to Wanhua Temple, she could be like a fish in water, and she would be loved by thousands of people.
And Si Jin, he is too timid and too introverted.
Since he was a child, Sijin would not fight for himself, and even if he was afraid, he didn't dare to cry.
Thinking of Huo Sijin, Xie Sicheng's heart was like a knife.
He didn't want to dwell on this matter anymore, and the top priority was to find Xie Honglin.
Huo Jiu was not in Xuanfu, she was probably coming to Tartar.
Huo Jiu had looked for Alilun, and Alilun had searched for famous doctors, and as far as he knew, Xie Honglin had little time.
Xie Sicheng's head hurt again, he held his head and squatted on the grass.
Who is Xie Honglin? Who is he? At that time, he didn't know what his surname was, and his father-in-law gave him the surname Xie.
It wasn't until many years later that he didn't know that the surname "Xie" was not only the Xie of Wang Xie in the past, but also the maiden surname of Empress Taizu Gao.
On that day, his stepfather called him over, and before that, he had not seen his stepfather for more than a year.
Since his father-in-law moved out of the city, if he wanted to see his father-in-law, he had to pass through Cuixian.
Later, he simply stopped asking to see her, he didn't want to ask Cui Xian, every time he saw Cui Xian, he wanted to pinch Cui Xian's neck.
And that time, the father-in-law called him to the front, and he found that the father-in-law was a little old, and he knelt in front of his father's knees and was silent.
Like when he was a child, his father-in-law stroked his jet-black hair, smiled and said, "Cheng'er, after so many years, do you still remember your mother?" ”
He was stunned, he didn't expect his father-in-law to suddenly ask about this, since he was adopted by his father-in-law, his father-in-law has never mentioned his life experience, and of course he hasn't asked about his mother.
And he didn't ask, and later he called for wind and rain in the Taiping Society, but he deliberately didn't let people inquire about his mother.
He was long dead when she was.
He didn't dare to inquire, he was worried that she was not dead, and she would suddenly appear like back then, making him and Sijin fall back into the situation they were in back then.
He shook his head: "The child forgot, forgot everything." ”
The father-in-law's voice was as hoarse as usual, and he whispered, "Do you still complain that she abandoned you back then?" She has her problems. ”
He didn't speak, his mother must have a problem, otherwise how could a person like her, who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, hide in a place like South Street.
The father-in-law seemed to have guessed that he would not respond, and said to himself: "Mingzhu is covered with dust, what can she do?" Don't blame her anymore. Do you know why I gave you the last name? ”
This time, Xie Sicheng finally raised his head: "Father-in-law, could it be my mother's surname Xie?" ”
He was stunned, he didn't expect his father-in-law to suddenly ask about this, since he was adopted by his father-in-law, his father-in-law has never mentioned his life experience, and of course he hasn't asked about his mother.
And he didn't ask, and later he called for wind and rain in the Taiping Society, but he deliberately didn't let people inquire about his mother.

This time, Xie Sicheng finally raised his head: "Father-in-law, could it be my mother's surname Xie?" ”
The father-in-law smiled: "Her surname is Xie,
The father-in-law smiled: "Her surname is Xie,
He didn't speak, his mother must have a problem, otherwise how could a person like her, who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, hide in a place like South Street.
