Volume I: Seventy-ninth Meeting
Bamboo forest paths, pavilions are built, and trees and flowers are widely planted
It was noon, and although it was April, the sky was clear and it was already hot, but the garden was cool, and I took a leisurely walk along the mossy pebble path.
Yu Fan and Mr. Kou both have their own profundity, Yu Fan is elegant and graceful, just take a casual walk, Mr. Kou leans on the lacquer pillar to recuperate quietly, gets up for a moment and carries a pot to serve tea to Yu Fan, and says with a smile: "Lord, it's hot, you drink some tea." ”
As he spoke, he wanted to introduce some topics, and said, "There was a case recently, you can listen to it."
Yu Fan knew that he was looking for happiness and smiled: "What is the case, let's hear it."
"Yes, there is a feng shui land in front of the bay in this county, and it is said that it is a good look, and the qi is like a stack of mountains, both red and white, and it is reddish in the middle of the vomit, and it can be lifted, but in order to fight for this land, seven lives were killed in one door, but such a big case still dragged on for a year!"
"What is the reason for this?" The speaker has no intention, but the speaker has a heart, Yu Fan asked in his heart.
"In fact, everyone knows that it is the Su family, a big family in the county, who robbed and killed the An family in the middle of the night, but I don't know how much money was spent to buy the county yamen up and down, so there is still no evidence. ”
"But after all, there are too many dead people, even if you can suppress it, you can't enjoy it, some time ago, the county sold this piece of feng shui land to the Kong family, a big family in the county, and the Kong family was cheaper. ’
A spark flashed in Yu Fan's eyes, and he said: "This is also the deep blessing of the Kong family, so that I got this cheap." ”
After only a few turns, I saw the chief of the catcher coming, and he came with a look of shame.
"Hmm, what's going on?"
"Yu Gongzi forgives his sins, the lower officials have mobilized hundreds of tolerances, and there are five or six hundred neighborhood eyeliner, all the fortune tellers have recorded, and they have not found the fortune teller you want!"
Yu Fan pricked his heart, as if asking and muttering: "No, I can't find it, where did I go?"
After being stunned for a long time, he smiled: "Even if you can't find it, you guys have worked hard, so let's do it, I'll have a banquet in the evening and use it well." ”
Seeing that the chief of the hunt went, only Yu Fan and Mr. Kou were left in the entire pavilion, Yu Fan just paced again and again, Mr. Kou stood and stared intently, and then said: "Lord, don't be too anxious, today is April 15th, the whole county is so big, it is inevitable that there will be sudgery, but now the fortune tellers are registered on the shore, and they are ordinary people who come out to find business every day. ”
Yu Fan listened to Mr. Kou's words for a long time before he said, "What you said is that I am too anxious, and it has only been a month!"
After speaking, it was just a smile, the two were talking, listening to the music in the distance gradually approaching, and the Zhilu Taoist troupe came, so they didn't speak, looked at each other and smiled, and turned around.
Early morning of April 22
The ox cart set off, and only Jiang Zinan accompanied him.
"This time I went to the county to report the following case, Qianqian is gradually degrading at this time, and it is still safe at home. Ye Qing put down the car curtain, thought for a while, looked at the girl opposite, and saw that she was not in good spirits: "Sister Zinan, are you a little nervous?"
"Childe, I said that I can't call it that anymore, now we are master and servant. Jiang Zinan protested in a low voice, but he felt powerless.
Sure enough, I saw Ye Qing grinning: "But I like it, and I've been used to it since I was a child, so what's the harm in calling it in private?"
Jiang Zinan's face turned red, feeling some bad feelings, and he didn't say anything anymore, but just covered his full chest with his hands, suppressing the discomfort.
Ye Qing knew it in his heart, no longer maliciously flirting, and handed over a pack of motion sickness medicine: "The last time I came back from Taiping Lake, I specially asked someone to deploy it, Qianqian used it very well, and Sister Zinan didn't go far?"
Jiang Zinan silently used the medicine, and his spirit improved a little, and then he considered to speak: "Only when I was a child, I walked with my mother once, when my father followed my lord to Pingshou County, and called our mother and daughter to come from Linxian County with a book, and then left my hometown, and then stayed in Yefu, only occasionally went to the county seat with the old lady, and my father went after the master, Zinan had to take care of his sick mother, and he never left Yefu again." ”
Ye Qing was silent when he heard this, staring at the smart beauty in front of him, he was a childhood sweetheart before he was ten years old, this has passed, and then he is the nominal aunt and nephew, which is the alienation that is gradually moving away
The young man stubbornly called his sister's old name, and it was inevitable that he would not be resentful when he recalled it.
It's just that the traverser selectively accepts the physical inheritance and only takes the value, which doesn't matter about it, and now calling her sister is a malicious teasing.
"In the previous life, the Ye family was destroyed once, and by the time I built and rebuilt, most of the old people were scattered in the war, including this girl, and as for the resources of the mother family, they disappeared directly at all. ”
"Now that I think about it, I started too late, and I wasted too many resources in the blanks, so that the foundation was not real, and it was difficult to break through the time limit of the Great Tribulation to mortals. ”
Even if the old love and beauty alone are nothing at this time, but people can play their value, this woman is keen and decisive, and she has a suitable place in the house.
Thinking of this, Ye Qing smiled at the moment, and said solemnly: "In the past, let it pass, the name is arbitrary, and there is no other meaning...... I'll take care of it in the future!"
This sounds like Jiang Zinan has a different meaning, and he can't help but bow his head obediently, subconsciously escape, his heartbeat suddenly, and he hesitates to be aggrieved, and he listens to the voice above: "Sit down, come back smoothly this time, I will take you to Mangkhut County by the way, remember that Uncle Jiang was originally from the clan there? There should still be relatives of the Jiang family, you can sacrifice your ancestors." ”
Ye Qing said this, his eyes dark...... Mangkhut Jiang clan, although it is a small county clan, has a bit of an impression in memory, who was there in the previous life?
"Yes......" Jiang Zinan didn't know this, only lowered his head and covered his mouth tightly.
"What's uncomfortable?" Ye Qing stretched out his hand halfway, and felt a few cold fingers falling on his fingers, which were crystal tears, and choked: "I'm sorry, Childe, I want to cry when I hear it......"
Ye Qing smelled pity, his heart was slightly softened by these tears, but he had a kind of realization - if he simply wanted to redeem a few regrets for rebirth, he would be trapped in his previous life.
"Before the Dragon Palace banquet, step by step to face difficulties, step by step calculation, I will inevitably give birth to pride, confident that everything is in the calculation, but the appearance of the carp almost made me confused. ”
"Looking back on these now, life is not a game, the world is never restored, everything is constantly changing, the new situation brings more difficulties, and there are more things worth cherishing. ”
"Compared to the realm of the immortal world that has just crossed over, or compared to the ordinary life on the earth, the essence of the reborn is not to look down and squander wantonly, but to grasp and cherish it better. ”
"I should take advantage of this time to improve my ability to grasp opportunities, cherish the resources in my hands, and lay a solid foundation, so that I can be lucky enough to survive the day of death in the future, so that I can climb to higher peaks
At this time, he woke up, and he was no longer picky, Ye Qing hugged the crying girl and comforted her: "It's okay, you don't have to pay attention to these things in private, I am very satisfied to see that you finally revealed it truthfully...... Don't cry, let's talk casually, for example, what relatives are there in Zinan......'s hometown?
The sound dissipated faintly in the air, and the oxen rutted far west,
All the way through the green mountains and green waters, a few days later passed through the county town, and had to stop for inspection.
A soldier came up to inspect it, and after looking at Jiang Zinan twice, Ye Qing coldly showed the copper seal: "Xiucai walks the world, and you still won't let it go!"
The soldier's face changed color and he retreated.
The coachman entered the ox cart and stopped in a quiet corner near the river, before he said, "Ye Gongzi, the county town has arrived, what else do you have to order?"
Ye Qing said: "Do you know the mansion of Yu Tongzhi?" "Zhilu Dao, Childe!" the coachman hurriedly responded.
"That's fine, go for a spin. Ye Qing said this, closed his eyes, and stopped talking, Jiang Zinan also knew that it was a serious matter now, so he immediately stopped talking.
This coachman was originally the son of the Ye family, and he bought it from his grandfather's generation, and he was already the third generation, so the clan was relieved, so he was asked to come out to serve Ye Qing, and he didn't say a word at the moment, so he went immediately.
The county town came and went, and the coachman turned a few streets, and came to a wide and long street, which suddenly came and went a lot, and this road was paved with bluestone, and there were no people begging for food, and everything was in order
After a little more, a courtyard in front of him appeared in front of him, and in front of the high door, there was a pair of stone lions as tall as a person, and a doorman dressed in black.
The coachman immediately followed Ye Qing's instructions, cautiously, and drove over without being fast or slow
This road is still a public house after all, everyone can do it, and there are a lot of cars coming and going, which is not conspicuous.
Ye Qing looked at the gate of the five wings, listening to the sound of Sheng Xiao Qinse faintly coming from the mansion, although he had been prepared, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
The flower wall has a hole in the wall, looking at it from a distance, I see that there are flowers and trees inside, there is a garden, a water pavilion is built in the middle, the stone bridge is twisted and turned, and there are stone tables and bamboo chairs under a row of weeping willows, which is really everyone's popularity.
Ye Qing took a closer look, and saw that there was a trace of red gas, and there was a faint yellow gas, which was really the qi of the county family.
"Go to Lan Chongwen Lan's house. ”
"Yes! Then the coachman drove the oxen cart to one place.
But after a while, he arrived at a mansion, Ye Qing got out of the car, and when he went up the steps, he was stopped by a person.
However, the doorman had sharp eyes, looked at Ye Qing in a brocade suit, and spoke very politely: "May I ask where the son came from and what is the matter?"
Ye Qing said: "You just say that Ye Qing from Pingshou County came to visit the adults and report my name." ”
The doorman was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and hurriedly responded: "It turned out to be Ye Xiucai, blame me for not knowing Mount Tai with eyes, so I'll report it." ”
Ye Qing was personally appointed by Long Jun to be a fellow jinshi, and he won the show at the age of sixteen, even this little doorman is also a knowledgeable man, so he went back to report immediately.
Xiucai has a status in the county, and he is a sixteen-year-old Xiucai, and he has the hand-picked of Long Jun, Lan Chongwen is deeply aware of the potential of Lu Dao, so it is only a moment before he personally goes out of the mansion to greet him, showing his attention.
Lan Chongwen was dressed in civilian clothes at this time, and he bowed his hand to Ye Qing from afar: "I don't want to be Ye Xiucai, come in." ”
