It is said that Zhang Qichao and his entourage went south along the canal, getting closer and closer to Suzhou. In fact, last time Zhang Qichao also had the opportunity to go back home, but because he had something in his heart, he didn't enter the house.

If it weren't for Yang Qian's suggestion this time, I would have gone to Suzhou to rest for a while. One is to relieve the fatigue of the long journey, and the other is to observe the situation in the south of the Yangtze River not far away. Otherwise, Zhang Qichao may have to follow Dayu's example.

It's not that Zhang Qichao doesn't miss his parents and Wei Yan, it's just that he feels that the danger of the six islands in the south of the Yangtze River is imminent.

When he came to his door, Zhang Qichao was quite emotional.

Seeing that Zhang Qichao was stopped, Yang Qian pushed down slightly from behind, "What are you hesitating about at home, won't you be afraid to go home and kneel on the washboard." ”

"Go, go~~" Zhang Qi glanced at Yang Qian, and said, "I just sighed about myself, and suddenly found that I hadn't gone home for a long time." ”

Yang Qian smiled slightly and said, "You can go back to your home, like I have been an orphan since I was a child, and I have no place to go back." ”

Zhang Qichao sighed slightly and said, "It seems that you still hold a grudge against the events of the past, but your uncle and aunt have already repented of the events of that year." There are all parents in the world, I don't think it's as good as ......"

Without waiting for Zhang Qichao to finish speaking, Yang Qian's face was full of anger, turned around and got on the horse, and walked away.

"What's the matter? Why is Yang Qian full of anger when he mentions his parents? Tuoba Shiruo asked curiously.

Zhang Qichao didn't want to talk about the old things, and sighed: "The past is long, Yang Qian refuses to say it, and I don't want to say much." After that, he walked into the house.

Tuoba Shiruo and Ji Yu looked at each other and followed into Zhang's mansion.

Wei Yan had already learned from the porter that Zhang Qichao was back, and rushed to greet him.

"Xianggong ......"

"Lady ......"

Zhang Qichao and Wei Yan hugged each other unpassionately, and said words of concern as if no one was around.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Zongzhou and Xia Jinmei also came. Seeing that the little couple was talking energetically, they didn't bother, but greeted Tuoba Shiruo.

"I don't know what to call this one next to Miss Tuoba?" Zhang Zongzhou asked politely.

Tuoba Shiruo introduced Ji Yu and said, "This is Ji Li, the owner of the island. ”

Zhang Zongzhou was stunned for a moment, and thought: "Isn't this a sworn enemy, how did the Qi Dynasty get in touch with him." I had doubts and didn't express it, and said: "It turned out to be the owner of the island back then, it's really disrespectful, disrespectful." ”

Ji Yu returned the salute and said, "Your Excellency's name, I have heard of it a long time ago." ”

The two of them had their own thoughts and were polite to each other.

At this time, Zhang Qichao and Wei Yan found that there were so many people around them, and they were embarrassed to stick together again.

Zhang Qichao raised his eyes and looked around, and said strangely: "Where has my sister gone, I heard Zuo Jun say that she has been at home all the time." ”

Zhang Zongzhou replied: "She went out for a walk, and I have already notified the next person to look for her." ”

It was not good for the guests to stay outside, so everyone went to the main hall to gossip.

On the other hand, Tian Xiaotong also came to Suzhou with Mu Xiaoxue and Rui Hansheng. They are not here to rest, but to meet a very important person.

This person is none other than Ji Li's daughter, Ji Mengwan.

It turned out that Mu Xiaoxue was worried about the wind and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, so she chose to hide Ji Mengwan in Suzhou.

"Does Ji Mengwan know me?" Tian Xiaotong paced in front of Ji Mengwan.

Ji Mengwan didn't know her at all, and shook her head.

Tian Xiaotong smiled and said, "When I was a child, I used to go to Shudao as a guest. You also played a game of rope jumping with me. ”

Ji Mengwan was very impressed by this, looked Tian Xiaotong up and down with wide eyes, and said, "You are Tian Xiaotong, the daughter of the Lord of Tian Island." ”

Tian Xiaotong nodded.

"Is your father still alive?" Ji Mengwan forcibly suppressed the outburst of emotions and pretended to be calm.

Tian Xiaotong smiled: "Live well!"

"Okay, what about my father!" Ji Mengwan's face turned iron-blue, and her eyes breathed fire.

Tian Xiaotong replied: "Your father is also alive and well, and he has also met with my subordinates. ”

"Then where is he now?" Ji Mengwan's tears welled up in her eyes, and her tone became sobbing.

"If I'm not mistaken, he should be in Suzhou by now. Tian Xiaotong said truthfully.

"If you're willing to tell me this, I'm afraid you need my help with something. Ji Mengwan didn't believe that her childhood playmate would be so kind.

Tian Xiaotong said: "You still know me, I hope you can accompany me to meet someone, to meet someone you have been thinking about for a long time." ”

"What if I don't want to?" Ji Mengwan asked rhetorically.

"I'm sure you'll agree, and judging from the current situation on the island, you can't refuse. Tian Xiaotong looked confident.

This was followed by a moment of silence, as both sides waited, waiting for a moment of relief.

When night fell, Zhang's Mansion was particularly lively. Zhang Chuyu also came back, and everyone had dinner with laughter. Only Yang Qian never came back.

After dinner, they went back to their rooms separately.

Zhang Qichao and Wei Yan haven't been together for a long time, and as soon as they returned to the room, Wei Yan asked questions from east to west, and Zhang Qichao also answered them one by one, and he didn't feel troublesome at all.

"You have such a good relationship with Yang Qian, he hasn't come back yet, why aren't you worried at all. Wei Yan heard about the relationship between Yang Qian and Zhang Qichao, and reproached: "In Suzhou, you are the master, and you can't lose your hospitality." ”

Zhang Qichao looked indifferent and said, "Lady, please rest assured, Yang Qian will be fine." After a moment's notice, he sighed: "It's all because I shouldn't mention his sadness, otherwise I wouldn't have left in a bad mood." ”

Wei Yan was curious: "What is Yang Qian's sadness?" Listening to his story, it stands to reason that he should be an open-minded person. ”

"Back then, Yang Qian's mother finally eloped with a chivalrous warrior because she fell in love with that chivalrous warrior, leaving behind the still young Yang Qian. Yang Qian's father was also doubly neglected because Yang Qian resembled his mother when he was a child. Later, Yang Qian's father remarried, and Yang Qian was even more pitiful. So he ran away from home in a fit of rage. Zhang Qi sighed while talking about Yang Qian's past.

"What about later?" Wei Yan listened attentively and hurriedly asked.

Zhang Qichao said: "Later, Yang Qian wandered the rivers and lakes and learned art. has practiced all his skills, objectively speaking, his martial arts are slightly better than mine. I got acquainted with him at the Sword Conference in Yanyu Villa, and for so many years, listening to his tone, I have always been obsessed with what my parents did. ”

"Later, I once met his parents, and to be honest, they seemed to have forgotten about Yang Qian's child. Zhang Qichao continued.

Wei Yan sighed: "It turns out that you lied to Yang Qian at the door, and there is no such thing as what you said." ”

"I'm also against my will, in fact, I haven't understood why Yang Qian's parents refused to recognize him. Zhang Qichao was a little indignant.

"Who are his parents?" Wei Yan became more and more curious.

Zhang Qichao whispered: "Actually, his mother, you and I know each other. ”

"Who?"

Zhang Qichao was next to Wei Yan's ear and said, "Xia Yudie!"

"Ahh

Zhang Qichao said: "The Huangfu family's right-hand man, Yang Yuxing." ”

There is no moonlight tonight, which does not affect the brilliant lights on the street. Yang Qian left in the afternoon, and walked alone with the horse and the river to relax. At night, I wander alone in the bustling market.

I thought that the cold heart could melt a little with the warmth of the outside. Now I know that such an approach will only make people feel more lonely. Yang Qian originally wanted to go back to Zhangfu, but then he thought that it was rare to come to Suzhou, and he should go to Qinglou to visit. But when I really arrived at the Qinglou, I lost interest when I looked at the kiln sisters who were scratching their heads and making gestures and soliciting guests.

In the end, he had to be like a lonely ghost, wandering in the city of Suzhou after nightfall.

All this changed with the appearance of a person.

Yang Qian looked at the 'stranger' in front of him and said coldly: "I really didn't expect you to come, I heard that you have been living a very good life." ”

The stranger said sadly: "Qian'er, after so many years, are you still blaming your mother?" It's all because I was impulsive back then, and I made a big mistake. As he spoke, he took out his handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Yang Qian glanced at her coldly and sneered: "Don't be coy in front of me, put away your crocodile tears." If you really had any affection, you wouldn't have killed my half-sister. ”

Xia Yudie defended: "She is not my daughter, but a wild seed brought back by Sun Anshu from outside and born to another woman." ”

"But after all, she has been raised by you for so many years!Not to mention......" Yang Qian ruthlessly exposed his mother's hypocrisy, "With your temper, will you tolerate yourself smiling at the wild seeds!"

Xia Yudie's eyes lit up, and her hand involuntarily clenched the handkerchief.
