Chapter 57: Reviving Zhujiazhuang
Zhu Tianxiang had heard the message, and went out in a wheelchair early to the door of the hall to greet Shen Yi and the others.
His body is still very weak, but his complexion is much better, although his eyes are evasive, he still dare not look at people, but he is much less cramped and uneasy when he used to see people.
When Zhu Tianxiang's eyes rolled to reveal a smile, Shen Yi remembered Zhu Tianwei.
I didn't find it before, but Shen Yi realized that the appearance of the two brothers of the Zhu family was so different, but at the same time, there were many similarities, especially the eyes, which also revealed a rebellious will and burning enthusiasm. It is precisely because of this strong will and inner enthusiasm that Zhu Tianxiang was supported to get out of the volute of hiding, overcome his shyness and inferiority, and bravely take on the heavy responsibility of reviving the Zhu family's business.
After Zhu Tianxiang's wheelchair, he still followed the little scholar to connect to the plane. If it is said that the most unchanged thing about this Zhujiazhuang up and down is that this little scholar is connected to the machine. He was still dressed in a fat coarse cloth shirt, with a thin body, his head hanging low, and a thin chin peeking out from his long loose hair. He meticulously pushed Zhu Tianxiang's wheelchair, like a loyal puppy.
Seeing Shen Yi, Zhu Tianxiang's face showed a somewhat shy but happy smile, and said, "Brother Shen, you're back." He looked at Shen Yi carefully and said, "Brother Shen, you don't look good, are you injured?"
"It's fine. Shen Yi looked at Zhu Tianxiang and said with a smile: "You are now the owner of Zhu Zhuang?"
Zhu Tianxiang lowered his eyes, raised his head for a moment, looked at Shen Yi for a while, seemed to be watching his reaction, to see if he agreed, and when he saw that the smile on Shen Yi's face was as sincere as before, he also showed a smile, with a little pride in his smile, and said: "Brother Shen, these things happened to the Zhu family, although I don't understand anything, I can only force myself to come out." After all, I am also a child of the Zhu family, and I can't watch the Zhu family decline. ”
"You're doing a great job. Shen Yi's voice was also low, "If your eldest brother knows after his death, he will definitely be proud of you, and he will also regret what he did wrong." ”
He treats people sincerely, although he knows that Zhu Tianwei has done unrighteous deeds, on the one hand, he hates his cruel methods, and on the other hand, he also regrets and grieves for him.
"Thank you, Brother Shen, for your compliment and support. Zhu Tianxiang's face suddenly showed a very innocent smile, "This time, the Zhu family can get out of the catastrophe, and it is also thanks to Lord Yuwen of Qingtian Mansion who strongly recommended it to the emperor." ”
"Lord Yuwen strongly recommends you?" Shen Yi looked at him and asked very strangely.
He recuperated in Qi Xiaoyu's tea garden for ten days, and he did not have any contact with outsiders, let alone Qingtian Mansion, which was thousands of miles away.
Zhu Tianxiang still smiled shyly and innocently, and said: "Because the situation is urgent, the little brother has made his own decisions, and I have to ask Brother Shen for forgiveness." On that day, Brother Shen disappeared, and the local government found Yin Tongming's body in the old teahouse, and after investigation, it was known that he was the culprit who bought the murder of Big Brother and Big Brother Bai, and committed suicide in fear of crime, and the government could not find Brother Shen, so they would come to seal up the Zhu family. Fortunately, I found out where my eldest brother hid the treasure that day, and quickly reported it to the county master, who was accommodating and did not seal Zhujiazhuang for the time being, and personally escorted the jewelry into Beijing to wait for the court to deal with it. At the same time, the younger brother sent someone to hurry up, and in the name of Brother Shen, he visited Lord Yuwen, explained the reason, and asked Lord Yuwen to ask for a prayer with the saint. The holy will is immense, and the sin of Zhu Jia's family and family governance is forgiven. ”
Shen Yi was shocked, feeling that this Zhu Tianxiang was too bold to act, although he was not happy to go to deal with Lord Yuwen in his own name, but think about it, he was seriously injured and unconscious at that time, and the matter was really urgent, even if he was present at the beginning, I am afraid that he would also think of saving this foundation for the Zhu family.
Zhu Tianxiang seemed to see through Shen Yi's thoughts, and quickly said: "Brother Shen, rest assured, the younger brother did not deceive and conceal Lord Yuwen in the slightest, nor did he make excessive demands, but just asked Lord Yuwen to take care of the Zhu family's handover of the stolen goods, and only asked the person who was guilty, and not to implicate others." This robbery and murder case was completely committed by the eldest brother and the eldest brother Bai, the old housekeeper who knew about it had died early, and the younger brother handed over many of the accomplices involved in the family to the local government for custody and disposal. In addition, in addition to Lord Yuwen, the younger brother also asked for help from the eldest brother's friends before his death, including many important ministers of the court, who interceded with the saint together, which made Lord Yuwen not embarrassed. is also because the younger brother atonement for his sins and helped the government crack this series of major cases, and won the gold medal of exoneration given by the Holy Emperor. ”
As he spoke, he pulled out a golden gold medal from his bosom.
The gold medal of imperial forgiveness in Zhu Tianxiang's hand, Shen Yi naturally recognized it, and his heart was originally happy for Zhu Tianxiang and the Zhu family, but he felt a chill for no reason. He looked at Zhu Tianxiang carefully, and couldn't help thinking: "The Zhu brothers are all the same talents, and they have outstanding features, but they are also too smart, looking at Zhu Tianxiang's means of acting, it seems that they are more thoughtful and tortuous than his brothers, and I just hope that they will not go astray." ”
Zhu Tianxiang's eyes never left Shen Yi, and he hurriedly said: "Brother Shen, don't worry, I am a wasted person, just want to save the Zhu family's business, I am already satisfied, I will never do anything wrong, let alone hurt the innocent." ”
Shen Yi saw that he saw through his own thoughts, and secretly sighed that he was really smart, and when he saw that he was serious and sincere, he also felt relieved, and said: "As long as you are good at yourself, with your intelligence, there will be a day when the Zhu family will be revitalized." ”
Zhu Tianxiang said happily: "Thank you Brother Shen for your encouragement, I will definitely work hard." ”
He invited Shen Yi and others into the hall to sit down and talk in detail, and he instructed Lian Ji to push the wheelchair to the side and get out of the way to show respect for Yanke.
Shen Yi walked inside, and when he passed by Zhu Tianxiang and Lianji, he suddenly had that strange feeling in his heart, like being caged in a thick fog, as if he felt something, but he couldn't figure out what it was. He looked back at Sheng Donglai and Bai Xinyu behind him, and then looked at Zhu Tianxiang's master and servant by the door, these people were quite familiar to him, and there should be no abnormality, but where did his strange feeling come from?
He glanced around vigilantly, every time he had this strange feeling, there would be a black-clothed killer with superb swordsmanship, could it be that the killer was watching nearby at this time, and when the time came, he would assassinate him? Who would be the target of the killer? Only Bai Xinyu and Zhu Tianxiang were left between the Zhu Bai family, could it be that these two people were the next target of the black-clothed killer? Although Yin Tongming was dead, how could he know that there would not be another person who wanted revenge?
Shen Yi and the others sat in the hall, and Zhu Tianxiang accompanied him until nightfall. Shen Yi saw that his face was tired, so he persuaded: "I wish my brother a hard day, let's go and rest early." ”
"Thank you, Brother Shen, for your concern. Zhu Tianxiang lowered his head, and said again after a while: "It's a pity that God doesn't treat me well, if I am not born and not healthy, if I can share more of the village, the eldest brother will not make mistakes again and again for the sake of wishing the family......"
Shen Yi looked at him and said, "The past is in the past, as long as I wish my brother to do it wholeheartedly, why bother with whether he can become famous?"
Zhu Tianxiang raised his head, showed gratitude, and said, "Brother Shen is right, I will definitely take my eldest brother as a lesson and will not do anything wrong again." He smiled happily, "If Brother Shen can stay in Zhujiazhuang for a long time and teach him from time to time, the younger brother will definitely benefit a lot." ”
Shen Yi said: "Now that this case has been closed, I should have returned to Qingtian Mansion, but Miss Hua's whereabouts have been unknown, I am afraid that I will have to stay at Zhu's house for a few more days, I hope it will not cause inconvenience to Brother Zhu." ”
Zhu Tianxiang hurriedly smiled: "What did Brother Shen say, the younger brother wished that Brother Shen could stay in the village for a long time." As for Miss Hua, the younger brother has already arranged for people to try their best to find her in Zhoujin. He turned his eyes to look at everyone and said, "It's not early, everyone should rest early, especially Brother Shen, the poison is healed, and he should recuperate well." He specially called a maid and ordered: "Bring a bowl of detoxifying and antipyretic soup to Shen Daxia." ”
Zhu Tianxiang talked eloquently, was thorough, and was indescribably attentive and thoughtful, who could believe that he was the cowardly young man who didn't dare to raise his head not long ago, and couldn't even say a complete sentence? Could it be that in a critical moment, it can really stimulate a person's potential?
Sheng Donglai hurriedly stood up and said goodbye to Zhu Tianxiang, he seemed to have admired Zhu Tianxiang very much, thinking that he was the real strong man who survived in adversity.
Bai Xinyu sat on the side, never said a word from beginning to end, and his warm care for Zhu Tianxiang was also unheard.
Shen Yi also stood up to send him off, but he didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something unexpected. It wasn't until Zhu Tianxiang and Lianji disappeared into the night outside the hall that he turned around and sat down in the chair.
Sheng Donglai also sat down again, sighed heavily, and said: "I didn't expect that in the end, this Zhu family's big family business still depends on the support of this weak young man, if the ancestors of the Zhu family know, I don't know what they will think." ”
