Chapter Forty-Six: Now that it's over, why lie to him again?
Qiu Feng's arrival in Shazhou City was very smooth, not that Qiu Jinglan's subordinates perfectly concealed the ears and eyes of Jibei Hou, but that Jibei Hou's first priority now is to make King Cai the real culprit who plotted to kill his two nephews, although he was very angry after knowing the news of Qiu Feng's arrival, but after weighing it, he decided to continue to pretend to be confused - he really didn't have this time!
Besides, what can he do when he sees the autumn wind? Whipping him feels too light, maybe he will make Jiang Qizheng feel distressed; Kill him and make his niece and granddaughter a widow, and let his great-nephew and grandson, who has not yet reached the age of Zhou, be a fatherless child, this kind of thing Jibei Hou can't do, it's better to be out of sight!
However, if you don't see the autumn wind, you can't see the autumn wind, and the Marquis of Jibei is not happy in his heart, so he doesn't mention sending Jiang Qizheng and his party to Shazhou City to rest: "Didn't the person surnamed Qiu rush over to find Zheng'er?" Lao Tzu won't let him see people! β
His purpose was to torture Qiu Feng, so he didn't tell Jiang Qizheng and the others the news - Jiang Qizheng didn't know, and his mood didn't change much.
And Qiu Feng came to Shazhou for two purposes: the first is to welcome back his wife, now that he knows that his wife is safe and sound, the relationship between their husband and wife is more complicated, Jibei Hou does not let him see Jiang Qizheng, and he himself doesn't know whether he is relieved or disappointed?
The second purpose, of course, was to track down the matter of his master, the old man Lingnan.
He thought that this must have fallen on Qiu Jinglan, so he entered the house where Qiu Jinglan lived, and couldn't wait to see the main owner to ask what was going on - but he was stopped by a green-shirted scribe in the back hall: "After a few years, Brother Qiu Xian is a lot haggard?" β
"Brother Ren!" Qiu Feng looked at Ren Ziyong with a complicated expression, "I know that you are under Qiu Jinglan, if it is something else, I have to give you a face today!" But ......"
Ren Ziyong also looked at him with a complicated expression: "He is worthy of being an iron horse and an autumn man, and he is very angry!" At the beginning, you and I hit it off at first sight, formed a year-old friendship, and treated each other like brothers! Later, for the revenge of my son, I cheated to death in the front, abolished my martial arts in the back, and came to Shazhou as a hermit to join the Kuang father and son...... I didn't reveal a word to you, but left a bag to tell my son to take advantage of your friendship and deceive you into doing everything possible to help your son......"
Speaking of this, he smiled self-deprecatingly, but there was no expression of shame on his face, but an indescribable amazement, "When we meet again today, you actually have no resentment?" But I don't know if I want to break off with me so I have nothing to say, or if I have other ideas? β
Qiu Feng shook his head: "Brother Ren is Qiu Jinglan's subordinate, and it is his duty to plan for the Lord." The reason why he didn't reveal it to me was because he didn't want to involve me! Although I regret that Brother Ren has seen this move, don't I know that you have good intentions? He groaned, "As for Qiu Jinglan's use of me, it seemed to be ruthless and unrighteous at first, and after knowing that Brother Ren was still alive, he thought about it carefully, but suddenly although he detained me by his side, he was often motivated, but he was not afraid that I would enter the rivers and lakes again and be framed by others?" β
He met Ren Ziyong not long after he came out of the mountain, and the reason was that he was inexperienced and planted a big heel! If it weren't for Ren Ziyong passing by, cherishing his martial arts and temperament, and giving him advice to wash away his grievances, it is estimated that his net worth and life would have been folded there.
Even his name of Iron Horse Qiuxia was able to break through, because Ren Ziyong laid out a lot of conspiracy calculations for him - most of his heroic road can be said to be paved for him by Ren Ziyong.
If it weren't for Ren Ziyong's insistence on arguing with his peers, Ren Ziyong's status in Qiu Feng's mind would only be below the Lingnan old man who raised him! How can it be the existence of a half-division. Otherwise, he would not have given up everything to chase Qiu Jinglan into Beijing in order to track down Ren Ziyongzhi's "death".
"Since you see everything clearly, then I won't go around in circles with you!" Ren Ziyong listened to his words, sighed, and said, "Sometimes, it's better to be confused!" Especially now that you have a wife and children, and it is said that although Princess Chunfu is of noble birth, she is very accommodating to you, isn't this a good day? Why bother with another storm? The old man in Lingnan has gone, and many things have passed away, I really don't think there is any need to expose it! β
After a pause, he continued, "When I asked Gongzi to reveal to you the method of getting out of the Lingnan Old Man's Cemetery, it was just in case! But I didn't expect him to really leave such a trouble for me before he died! I just don't know what to do! β
"It's you who have an old relationship with your family teacher, Brother Ren?!" Qiu Feng was slightly surprised, "Then why does Brother Ren insist on intersecting with my peers?" β
"If you are willing to stop talking, I will lead you to see Gongzi and discuss how to calm the Jiang family's anger against you!" Ren Ziyong raised his hand, looked at him, and said solemnly, "You should know that Jiang Yayue and Jiang Ya are dead, although the Jiang family is very careless about people's lives up and down, they attach great importance to the lives of their own children!" You didn't make the death of these two people, but in the final analysis, it is not unrelated to you! So when you arrived in Shazhou, Jiang Shijiu's people didn't dare to let Jibei Hou know! I'm afraid that the Marquis of Jibei will kill you in anger, and they won't be able to explain to Princess Chunfu! β
Qiu Feng asked calmly: "What if I insist on asking?" β
"The old man of Lingnan has already started, if I don't tell you, God knows what kind of tracking method you will do?" Ren Ziyong said lightly, "Instead of letting you cause a mess, I'll tell you directly-didn't you ask why I intersected with your peers?" Because you and I are peers! β
Seeing that Qiu Feng was stunned, Ren Ziyong didn't give him a chance to ask questions, and continued, "One night more than thirty years ago, I fled out of Beijing with my little aunt and your mother! I was a little better than her, and I was saved by Concubine Lian at the moment of life and death! At that time, Concubine Lian knew that my identity was suspicious, and I was afraid that after I took it in, it would bring monstrous disasters to the Xihe Palace! But I miss my youth, and I still can't bear to be an official! It just so happened that the left protector of 'Tianya' was nearby at that time, so she handed me over to the left protector to take away and settle down...... That's how I entered the 'end of the world'. β
"And although the little aunt also escaped from the hands of the pursuers, she was left in the land of fireworks because there was no one to take care of her! About ten years ago, not long after you were born, I finally found her with the help of the power of 'Tianya', she was already seriously ill at that time, and she did not live long, and after seeing me, she entrusted you to me and went. β
"After I buried her, I wanted to find a wealthy family to foster you, so that you could live a rich and safe life. But in the middle of the search, I found a rich man killed by thieves...... Naturally, I was in a dilemma, and when I happened to meet your master, the old man Lingnan, and he felt that your qualifications were suitable for martial arts, so I handed you over to him. β
Ren Ziyong said this lightly, and said lightly, "So, do you know why the prince didn't want you to be the master, but he still let you be the master?" Because, the Jiang family is powerful, if your life experience is accidentally revealed, relying on the identity of the Jiang family's son-in-law, it may become your protection! Otherwise, Princess Chunfu was so naΓ―ve and easy to deceive at that time, with the means of the child, a little trick can save you from this matter! β
ββ¦β¦ My mother, related to the abolition of the crown prince at the time of Dezong? "More than thirty years ago, the nobles of the Xihe Palace, the honorable people who took in Ren Ziyongshang, will cause a monstrous disaster...... What the hell is going on?!
ββThe prince of the Dezong Dynasty was accused of killing the monarch with the poison of the sleeping incense, after the incident, the East Palace, except for the congenital mentally retarded King of Qiyang County, all died, and none of them were spared!
"The little aunt was named Muyang before her death, and she was the youngest daughter of the prince when Dezong was abolished, so she was only the county lord - and because she was a concubine, she was not liked by the princess, and she lived in the boudoir for many years and was not familiar to outsiders. Therefore, her henchman pretended to be her and deceived the chamberlain who passed the decree at that time, so that she had the opportunity to leave the house and flee with me! β
Ren Ziyong laughed at himself, "And I'm not from the royal family, and I'm young...... Father and brother diverted most of the attention, but they also escaped by chance...... Of course, it is also Concubine Lian's kindness that leads to today! β
Qiu Feng's face turned pale for a moment, he grew up in the countryside and wandered the rivers and lakes, although he was still a princess, he never felt that he was incompatible with the temple, but he didn't want to be told one day: He had the most noble blood of Da Rui flowing in his body!
It's just that this matter has been separated for many years, and Qiu Feng himself has not received this kind of education, although it sounds incredible at first glance, but his mind has not been held for a long time, so he calmed down and asked in a deep voice, "Then why did Master set up a formation around the cemetery to trap me?" β
"Is he dissatisfied with your lordship?" Ren Ziyong asked quietly.
"That's right......," Qiu Feng muttered, "is Master going to trap me next to his grave because of this?" How is this possible? "He was raised by an old man in Lingnan, so he naturally understands each other's personalities. The old man of Lingnan regards him as a parent, Qiu Feng was lazy and naughty when he was a child practicing martial arts, and he was not willing to beat and scold, not to mention that Qiu Feng was forced to be the master when he didn't know his master's preferences at all?
It is possible to scold him, if you want to say that the old man of Lingnan has a murderous intention for this, Qiu Feng can't believe it anyway!
"Who said he was going to trap you next to his grave?" Ren Ziyong sneered, "He wants to kill you, what kind of food and water is put in the array-how quickly can you starve to death of thirst?" Can you still get out? β
Qiu Feng was puzzled: "But if you don't want to trap me, why don't you mention my formation when you tell me where I am buried?" β
"I said that your master had no intention of trapping you, not that he had no intention of trapping you!" Ren Ziyong shook his head, "Your master knows your background, and he disagrees with me about your Princess Shang Chunfu!" I think that your lord is also one of the means to take precautions, but he thinks that it is easier for you to reveal your life experience after you are still the lord - especially when the first emperor ascended the throne when the Gu family framed your grandfather, and the Jiang family is also the beneficiary of this matter, how can he be willing to protect you for a daughter? β
"He summoned you back to the master when he was about to die, so that you would not have time to tell Princess Chunfu the truth. Trapped by your grave for more than a year, maybe Princess Chunfu will find a new love! Ren Ziyong sighed, "It's a pity that he didn't count that Princess Chunfu was not only pregnant, but also never confided any grievances to her mother's family!" Otherwise, if she has your child, the strength of the Jiang family will also be furious, and she will choose another considerate colt for her! β
He said, "Don't think that you really relied on the method that Gongzi deliberately revealed to you, if you don't have time, you can't get out of that way if you remember it!" β
Qiu Feng was silent for a while: "It turns out that the master set up that formation around the tomb for me?" β
"Not exactly. In his early years, he did a lot of things for the Tao family that were not on the stage, so he was naturally worried about the revenge of being crushed after death! "Qiu Jinglan and Qiu Nie revealed the method of coming out of the formation to Qiu Feng under the pretense of chatting - at this time, Qiu Feng had not seen Princess Chunfu yet!
Ren Ziyong would never make such a mistake, and snorted coldly, "So he asked me to arrange for someone to arrange a formation around the cemetery he selected...... He has no heirs, so you must be in charge of the aftermath! I'm going to tell you how to go out of the formation. It's just that he doesn't want you to let you know the things he did in his early years, it's not easy to tell you this, but I can only let you remember it through Childe's side. β
After a pause, "That's how it happened, do you have any other concerns?" If not, let's go to the guest house first, Childe is busy with official business now, and I will see you tomorrow. β
Speaking of this, there was a hint of lacklustre, "After all, you also know the current situation in Shazhou, and you can't be negligent!" β
"......" Qiu Feng was silent for a while, then turned to leave.
Although it is of no real meaning to him to know that he is the grandson of the abolished prince of Dezong - for this grandfather who suddenly appeared before, he has no idea of avenging him, let alone relying on this life experience to do anything big - but at first glance, he always needs some time to calm down and sort out such a big thing.
And his intuition told him: "How true and how false is what Brother Ren said?" β
"In addition to grandmother rescuing you, there is also the purpose of the old man Lingnan to separate Qiu Feng from Princess Chunfu...... Soon after Qiu Feng left, Qiu Jinglan, who was repeatedly said by Ren Ziyong to be very busy, walked into the room and sighed, "You have lied to him for the rest!" Why bother? I think he really didn't put his life experience at ease, he just told him directly that he was the grandson of the abolished prince of Dezong, and he couldn't ask us to assist him in fighting for the world, didn't he? β
Ren Ziyong smiled bitterly: "The old man of Lingnan deliberately taught him to be a pure martial arts person, isn't it because he knows his life experience one day, and he will not cause trouble, but continue to be a Jianghu guest at ease?" Let's let him Shang Chunfu Princess, really just to find a guarantee for him...... After all, as long as the Jiang family's investigation of their son-in-law is over, who will doubt his background anymore? That's it, the old man of Lingnan was still dissatisfied, and before he died, he left a hand to try to make him lose his status as a colt...... Of course I know that Qiu Feng won't think anything about his life experience! β
With a long sigh, "I just thought, in that case, let's change his background from grandson to grandson - grandson is always an outsider, and he can be happier when he discards the influence of his background." β
