CHAPTER 40

It is possible to be taken to a secluded place with questions along the way. Father Qin walked into a room, came out again after a while, and said, "You go in, you will know everything when you go in." Then he pulled Qin Yue away, and when he left, Qin Yue kept looking back, it seemed that even Qin Yue had never been here.

It all happened too quickly and suddenly, first natto became the princess of the Qing Dynasty, and then learned that he was the nephew of Qin's father, and he was taken to this uninhabited place. At this time, there was only one person left at the door, and it was unusually quiet. He looked around and slowly pushed the door open, the creaking sound of the door being pushed open was particularly harsh and creepy. Actually, it can already be creepy.

The inside of the house is spacious and clean, but there is no trace of anyone living in it, not so much a house as a coffin.

"Here, sit down. Suddenly, from the corner came a woman's slightly vicissitudes of life, and she could tremble for a while. Master said that in order to become a hero, you must be able to be calm in the face of danger, and you can pretend to be calm and go to the table in front of you and sit down.

As soon as he sat down, he heard the sound of tapping and tapping, and then a woman came out of the back room. The woman dressed modestly and behaved gently, brought a pot of tea and slowly placed it on the table, as if completely ignoring the presence of the could. I don't know what to say, but I swallow dryly as I watch.

It can be observed that the woman is about middle-aged, similar in age to Qin's mother, but her appearance is different. Qin's mother is as delicate as Qin Yue, and the woman in front of her is a little elegant and gentle, no matter how she dresses or dresses up. It's really a different flower, and the fragrance and color are different, but the common point is obvious, that is, they are all beautiful. When everything was laid out, the woman could pour tea and speak.

"Look, haven't seen enough. ”

He breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the teacup and drank tea, and said, "Girl, why do you live in such a place, I thought you were a ghost at first?"

"No big, no small, senior, you're going to call me grandma!" the woman said.

"Poof!" the tea that had just been drunk in his mouth squirted out, and he said in surprise: "Grandma, what are you kidding! You're so young......"

"I am Qin Yue's grandmother and Lin'er's mother. ”

"Lin'er is ......"

"It's your uncle, Qin Yue's father, Qin Lin. ”

You can count your fingers and pat the generations, and then look at the woman in front of you, and cry out: "Ghost!"

The woman sat down and looked peaceful, "That's why I live here, and if outsiders knew, they would react like this." ”

It's like being thrown from a great place, and your heart is about to jump out of your throat, "Then you...... How could you...... How can you be so young?"

"I don't know, I've never been old since you saw me now. The woman's face was still calm, and she asked again, "How is your grandmother Wei Ling'er now?"

You can come back to your senses and think: Is she really the same generation as her grandmother?

"Grandma died a few years ago...... Then your name is ......."

The woman sighed, frowned, and looked sad, "My name is Ouyang Jingshu, you can call me Grandma Ouyang." ”

It can be known that Ouyang is not the surname of the Central Plains, so it seems that the woman in front of her does have a bit of Western charm. Although I couldn't scream, I don't know why I could already believe what the woman said in my heart.

"Grandma Ouyang, I'm getting more and more messy now, what's going on?"

Ouyang Jingshu, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, smiled, and said, "Can you call it?"

"Hmm" can be nodd.

"Yes, now that you have grown up, there are some things that you should know, if you want to know anything, just ask. ”

You can think for a moment and ask, "Where did natto go?"

Ouyang Jingshu: "Hmm, who is natto?"

Yes: "It's the princess of the Qing Dynasty!"

Ouyang Jingshu: "I don't know ......"

Okay: "If you still say that you want to know something, I can ask you, you lie!"

Ouyang Jingshu was furious, "You are a fool, how can I know about this kind of thing, you can't pick what I know!"

can be stunned, it turns out that Grandma Ouyang has such a big temper.

"Then why don't you get old?"

"I don't know ......"

"You see you don't even know yourself, what else can I pick and ask!"

Grandma Ouyang took a long breath to calm down and said, "Don't you want to know about your family?"

"My Family ......"

"It's the Qi family!"

"My family...... Finally...... What's wrong?"

Grandma Ouyang shook her head, "It seems that you really don't know anything." ”

"All I know is that it was my grandfather who saved my grandmother, and then they moved together to where I live now, and then I had my father, and then I had me. ”

"That's what your grandmother told you. ”

"Well, how do you know ......"

Grandma Ouyang put down the teacup in her hand and looked directly at it, "Do you know who killed your grandmother's family?"

"Grandma said it was a murderer hired by her father's brother......"

But before she could finish speaking, Grandma Ouyang interrupted, "Will they still hire a murderer to kill themselves?"

"What?"

"Back then, it was not only your grandmother's whole family that died, including her relatives and brothers, the entire family was all killed overnight, and the murderer was your grandfather!"

You can slap the table, stand up, "How is this possible!"

Grandma Ouyang: "I know you're going to be incredulous, sit down and listen to me tell you everything you need to know." ”

Although he was angry, under Grandma Ouyang's gentle tone, he slowly sat down.

"This starts with the history of your family, the Qi family is a big family, and it has to be traced back to the Ming Dynasty. At that time, it was the most prosperous time for the Qi family, and there were tens of thousands of people in the whole clan, but the Qi family was not a bureaucratic elite, but engaged in a profession for generations - killers!"

"For a killer's family to develop like this, there must be a solid political backstage, and the Qi family is the Chongzhen Emperor of the Ming Dynasty that no one can shake. Although the emperor has no direct contact with the Qi family, there are very few officials who come to the Qi family, and the Qi family has always maintained a mysterious appearance and is not known to outsiders. Such a relationship is mutually beneficial for both the court and the Qi family, and the court has some difficult things to deal with, and the Qi family can help deal with them, and the Qi family will not be found in any trouble because they have a big backer. ”

This state of affairs continued until the fall of the Ming Dynasty, when the Qing Dynasty had just been established, and the change of dynasty had to first clean up the remaining forces of the previous dynasty. Seeing the persecution of officials one by one and the penetration of Qing forces getting deeper and deeper, the Qi family naturally realized their own crisis, but they didn't expect it to come so suddenly. ”

"Qing Dynasty officials checked the remnants of the Ming Dynasty documents, and knew the relationship between the Qi family and the Ming Dynasty court, in just three days, the court sent countless masters from all walks of life, offering a reward of 1,000 taels of silver for a head, and killing all the people of the Qi family!"

You can have dry lips, swallow saliva, and listen intently.

Grandma Ouyang took a sip of tea and continued: "In the end, there were only a few people who survived, and they were all masters among the masters. As soon as the court saw that the remnants had almost been cleared, they did not pursue it again, and those who were full of relatives and families, for such a master, they would take their own lives if they were not good, and felt that a thousand taels was really not worth it, so they gave up. ”

Later, the people of the Qi family came to the south, re-established their own family, and made a poisonous oath that the descendants of the Qi family would be inseparable from the Qing court. The Qi family is good at using all kinds of weapons, but the last few remaining people are good at using bows and arrows, and they are all first-class masters, so the descendants of the Qi family are born to be marksmen, and your grandfather is a master of using bows and arrows. ”

More than 50 years ago, your grandfather met Qin Shuang, a descendant of the Qin family, and Zhang Da Buddha, a descendant of the Zhang family. The friendship between the Qi family, the Qin family, and the Zhang family also began at this time, and they have always been good friends until that happened. ”

"It's been almost fifty years, not long before your grandfather and your grandmother met. At that time, the Qi family, the Zhang family, and the Qin family had close contacts, and one day your grandfather Qi Tian found out that your grandmother Wei family was the culprit who destroyed the Qi family back then, and the Wei family killed hundreds of people in the Qi family back then. According to the ancestral teachings, your grandfather naturally regarded them as old enemies, so he summoned everyone in the Qi family and all kinds of killers, and decided to wash the Wei family in blood overnight. At that time, the Qin family and the Zhang family were all kept in the dark, and your grandfather never told them about the Qi family. Until one night, your grandfather suddenly came to Zhang's house with your grandmother. ”

"Your grandfather did you save your grandmother, according to your grandfather's own words, the moment the moonlight hit your grandmother's face that night, your grandfather's arrow aimed at your grandmother suddenly loosened, and he found himself in love with her. Feeling as if his world was turned upside down, he killed the people who were chasing and killed your grandmother with his own hands, and fled with your grandmother. Your grandfather knew that this would be a betrayal of the family and a violation of the clan rules, so he found the Zhang family alone for help, fled to the place where you live now, and re-established his own family. ”

"During this period, your grandfather went back many times, and finally found that the court had been chasing and killing the people of the Qi family, and all the people of the Qi family had died except for him, and there was a little doubt in his grief. Your grandfather is a killer, so naturally he has a very cool head, and will think about why he has always been so safe here, and no one has ever tracked it down. ”

Grandma Ouyang stopped to take another sip of tea, but she could swallow all her saliva and take a sip of tea.

"With the friendship between the Zhang family, the Qin family and the Qi family, and the strength of the two families, the place where you live now is also a clean place, and you have also built a house. Your grandfather's keen observation ability finally discovered that the Zhang family used to have contacts with people in the imperial court, and the Zhang family held many positions in the imperial court, all of which were of great importance. Hearing the news, Qi Tian and Zhang Dafo fell out all of a sudden, but Zhang's house had been built, and the friendship was too deep, so it was not good for the two to intensify the contradiction directly on the statement. The Qin family has always been a hermit family, and they are neutral between the two of them, but no matter how they are convinced, the conflict between the two has never been able to be mediated, especially your grandfather Qi Tian, who cannot accept the help of the culprit of the extermination. In a fit of rage, the three families began to quarrel, Qin Shuang left alone, and the idea of the three of them building a house together was also dispelled. ”

"Despite this, the Qin family still has contacts with the Zhang family, and Qi Tian is always elusive, although the Zhang family and the Qi family have always lived very closely, but Qi Tian rarely has contact with them. After a few years, Zhang Dafo felt that his friendship with Qi Tian was over, and left with his wife and children, and Zhang's house has been empty. And the Qi family has always lived there and lived a simple life. Later, Wei Ling'er became pregnant, and Qi Tian stayed by her side all the time. More than 20 years have passed like this, and your grandfather seems to have forgotten his hatred, and he has also reflected on his stubbornness, the mistakes he made back then. ”

"But the tragedy is far from over, Qi Tian's son, that is, your father, somehow participated in the Heaven and Earth Society against the Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty! This is something your grandfather did not expect, but he couldn't stop it, and slowly your father knew the history of the Qi family, but at that time your grandfather had already let go. What I never expected was that within a few years, the people of the Zhang family returned, a man in the prime of life leading a horse, with a pregnant woman and an older woman. He is Zhang Dafo's son, his wife who is pregnant, and the other is his mother, that is, Zhang Dafo's wife. The reason is because Zhang Dafo suddenly disappeared somehow and didn't know where he went. At that time, there was chaos in the court, and the daughter-in-law was pregnant. His wife decided to take her daughter-in-law to this place where she used to live in a clean place. ”

"Fate is like this, Qi Tian and Zhang Dafo can become close friends, and their sons actually talked happily when they met, and they became good friends. A year later, that is, when you were just born, the child of the Zhang family was also born at that time. Your father decided to leave with your Uncle Zhang and never come back, completely severing the estrangement between the two families in their generation, and not bringing any hatred to the next generation. Your grandfather Qi Tian also disappeared not long after, and he disappeared somehow, and has never appeared again. ”

Grandma Ouyang paused, and a wisp of sadness was projected in her eyes, "I just didn't expect Ling'er to leave so soon......"

You can have warm and damp eyes, a little sour, "My father...... What's my father's name?"

Grandma Ouyang thought for a while, "It's called Qi Xin, but few people know his name, the rivers and lakes call him 'Tibetan Wind', he is not only superb in archery, but also knows the art of feng shui, the design of the courtyard, the bold and legendary ideas, which can be called the art of ghosts and gods." ”

"'Tibetan Style'......" can seem to have heard this name somewhere, and suddenly thought, isn't Zangfeng the person who designed the Qifeng Tower?

"How do you know...... How do you know that?"

"Because, this place was designed by him, when he was twenty years old. ”

"This place refers to ......"

"It's the Qin Mansion where you are now! He found a place where the dragon vein passes through, where the breath of the sun and the moon in the mountains is gathered, warm in winter and cool in summer, and the temperature is maintained at about the same all year round, and the plants will bloom again as soon as they wither, and the four seasons are like spring. The name 'Spring Palace' was also given by him. ”

You can't believe all this, but you have to force yourself to believe it.

"And what is my mother's name?"

"Tang Qiuai. ”

"How can this be ......" can feel that he is in a chaos, and some completely unfamiliar names are actually his parents. His family history is so complicated, his grandfather and father are god-like figures, but he is so weak, it is completely unrealistic.

"So where are they now? Why don't they show up, I haven't even seen them in person!"

"I don't know...... Although the Qin family had been following their news all these years, there had been no trace of them for a long time now. ”

"How are the Zhang family's children now?"

"Are you having fun?"

"His name is Zhang Xingle?"

"Well, he became the champion and went to Beijing as an official......"

"Oh...... That's right. ”

"Xingle said that his father was an official of the imperial court, and he ...... now"

Grandma Ouyang interrupted what she could say and said, "Zhang Xuan, ......"

"Xingle's father is called Zhang Xuan...... "You can think to yourself, there really will be such a coincidence, could it be the person who appeared in Wuyuan?"

"Yes, his mother has a strange name, 'Yiren'. Originally, his entire family was an important official of the imperial court, but later began to fall during the period of Zhang Dafo, and there was not much left, and it seemed that Zhang Xuan was going to revitalize the status of the Zhang family in the court. ”

Zangfeng, Zhang Xuan, these two people appeared in the same place, you can know that this is definitely not a coincidence, there must be an ulterior secret in it. The more you know about your life experience, you can feel more confused, and you don't know what to do next and where to go. Should I go to my parents? What should I say and do when I find it, I didn't expect that I decided to walk the rivers and lakes and become a hero at that time, but now it has become so complicated.

I can suddenly remember, a question that has confused me since I was a child.

"Grandma Ouyang, can you tell me, what is this unicorn fruit?"

Grandma Ouyang, looking at the beads in her hand, said something that seemed extremely profound.

"Whatever you want it to be, it's what it is. ”

"What do you mean......

"Alright, you go, I've told you everything I know. ”

"I still have a lot of questions to solve, I ......"

"You just have to know that your grandfather, your parents, including your grandmother, did all this for you. It's time for all these years of grievances and grievances to end, starting with you, and change. ”

"Start with me......" Before she finished speaking, Grandma Ouyang walked into the back room without making a sound. You can stand still for a while, then push the door and leave.
