362. First month sixteen (10,000 more)(1/2)
The next day after the confinement period in Yuanqiu is the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.
It was chilly spring and there was still carbon burning in the room.
After a good night's sleep, Yuan Qiu was awakened by Rong Qingchen's cry. When she opened her eyes, she saw Su Mo walking around the room with her daughter in her arms, but the child was hungry and it was useless to coax him. Because Yuan Qiu had enough milk, she also wanted to feed him herself, so she did not arrange a wet nurse for the twins for the time being.
"Amo." Yuan Qiu called out.
Seeing that Yuan Qiu woke up, Su Mo quickly sent his baby daughter over and asked Yuan Qiu to feed her.
As soon as her daughter got her, her son who was placed outside by Su Mo also started crying. Su Mo hurried out to bring her son in.
When Yuanqiu fed the two babies, it was already bright outside.
When I packed up my breakfast, the sun came out, dispelling the chill of the mist.
Yuan Qiu wanted to have breakfast in the viewing pavilion in the courtyard, but Hongling quickly arranged it and placed a thick cushion on the stone bench, so that Yuan Qiu could sit in the leeward position.
The air was fresh in the morning. Looking out from the viewing pavilion, the thin ice on the lake had just melted in the past two days, the grass had not sprouted, the peach trees had not bloomed, and only the green pines and cypresses were evergreen all year round. It is probably impossible for Yuanqiu to have another snowfall.
Taking a deep breath, Yuan Qiu felt refreshed. After "unloading the goods", nearly a year has passed since she was pregnant. She didn't feel difficult because she has never been idle and has lived a fulfilling life in medicine and poison. Because there is no trouble to disturb her and she doesn't need to go out to do anything, she gave her a rare opportunity to focus on improving her strength during her pregnancy. Now she is "free". In addition to the fairy husband, there are two cute and invincible babies around her, which makes Yuan Qiu feel like she has lived for two lifetimes and finally reached the peak of her life.
Seeing Yuan Qiu drinking porridge leisurely, the corners of his lips curled up, Su Mo smiled. Like Yuan Qiu, he has also recently entered a new stage in his life. Everything is incredibly beautiful. When he opens his eyes, he feels full of happiness and his mood is naturally very good.
When the breakfast was about to end, Yuan Qiu saw Rong Yuancheng walking in and immediately thought that he should have to talk about yesterday.
When Meng Li came to have a full moon wine, she mentioned Meng Xian's monastery when she went to Xiuqing'an to become a monk. She had no other intentions, but she just thought she should tell Yuan Qiu.
Although Yuan Qiu said that it might not be a bad thing, she was actually very surprised. Because she felt that how could a selfish person like Meng Xian, who was immersed in her fantasy all day long, ignore her family and short-sighted eyes suddenly see through the world? Although Meng Xian has been doing it all the time, she has no choice but to be lucky. The elders of the Meng family felt sorry for her and lived a good life. No one stopped her if she wanted to go home. At that time, even if her reputation was bad, she would still be a pampered Miss Meng Si, who suddenly shaved her head and converted to Buddhism?
This does not conform to Yuan Qiu's understanding and expectations of Meng Xian.
However, in front of Meng Li, Yuan Qiu didn't say anything at that time. After all, she was just guessing that maybe she thought too much, Meng Xian really realized it.
Yesterday, the yen autumn just came out of confinement and the baby was full of the moon. It happened to be the Lantern Festival. She was in a good mood and did not want to worry about Meng Xian's affairs, so she planned to talk about it again.
Therefore, when Yao Yuan came over to "inform" and said that Lu Zhe and Jun Lingxin went to Xiuqing Temple to find Meng Xian, Yuan Qiu felt that it was just right.
Although the one I wanted to go to was Jun Lingxin, Yuan Qiu believed that Lu Zhe could not let Jun Lingxin contact Meng Xian alone. As long as Lu Zhe saw Meng Xian, if there was something wrong with Meng Xian, he should be able to notice.
Mu Zhenxuan had long been dead, and his nephew Lu Zhe is now very close to the Rong family. Yuan Qiu once couldn't say that he hated this cousin, and now he couldn't say that he liked it much, but there was one thing that Yuan Qiu absolutely recognized, that is, Lu Zhe was a smart person, and Yuan Qiu liked to deal with smart people.
"San sister, brother-in-law." Rong Yuancheng entered the viewing pavilion and sat next to Su Mo.
"What happened yesterday?" Yuan Qiu put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth with a veil. If Jun Lingxin had just gone to apologize to Meng Xian in person and nothing happened, Lu Zhe would not have asked his guard to come to Rong's house to find someone. Moreover, the guard was seriously injured at that time, so Yuan Qiu saved him.
"Meng Xian knows that her brother-in-law is Mr. Lan Yu." Rong Yuancheng said, looking at Su Mo.
Su Mo's eyes did not fluctuate at all, and he was seriously eating half of the buns left by Yuanqiu.
Yuan Qiu frowned, "Where did she know?"
Yuan Qiu didn't care whether Meng Xian was good or bad, whether she was dead or alive, and she didn't think Meng Xian could cause trouble.
Therefore, when he heard Rong Yuancheng's words, Yuan Qiu immediately discovered the problem. Who told Meng Xian that Su Mo was Mr. Lan Yu?
Not many people know about this, and the Meng family doesn't know about it, including Meng Li, a good relationship with Yuan Qiu. Meng Xian was originally confined to recuperate in the Meng family's village and would not have contact with outsiders.
In addition to the Rong family, including Lu Zhe, who knows this, as far as Yuan Qiu knows, only Su Mo’s former master Qing Jue.
This is because Su Mo became a disciple of Qing Jue when he was a teenager. He followed Qing Jue to practice martial arts and fell into Qing Jue's control. However, Qing Jing was sneering at Su Mo's attitude of writing the miscellaneous books in his eyes, and even was dissatisfied with it for a time, believing that Su Mo's mind was not used on the "right path".
In those years, Qing Jue let down a good disciple like Lu Zhe who is talented and ambitious, but chose an apprentice who often dissatisfied him as his heir. It was because although Qing Jue could not see the ambition and desire he wanted in Su Mo, Su Mo's talent and strength were really far ahead and no one could match. As for other aspects, Qing Jue could only hope that Su Mo would suddenly "open up" one day and resist the injustice of fate, which was what he expected.
Of course, the heir that Qingjue is truly protecting is his precious daughter Qingmei. Su Mo is just the most powerful piece that Qingjue has cultivated on the surface. He gave Su Mo a "tolerant" on things that are irrelevant, for example, he spared Mrs. Xin's life because of Su Mo's plea. But in the matter that Qingjue cares about, he never allowed Su Mo to disobey his orders. In order to use the Qingming Sword, Qingjue wanted Su Mo to sell his dignity and appearance. The purpose of that matter was not just a sword, but also to take the opportunity to destroy Su Mo's arrogance in his bones, destroy Su Mo, and get a "puppet" he really wanted.
If Su Mo had not been able to kill Qing Jue back then and he was alive, the development of things would have been for Qing Jue to use his apprentices, including Su Mo, to achieve years of planning, and then eliminate those who have dissent or difficult to control. For example, Su Mo could enjoy the fruits of victory with Qing Mei and his daughter.
Unfortunately, Qing Jue thought he was in control of everything, but he didn't know that Su Mo was just using him to improve his strength in turn, and his purpose was to allow himself to live with dignity or die with dignity.
Therefore, Qing Jue's thoughts were apart and failed to ruin Su Mo. He lost his life and ruined his years of planning.
Now Qing Jue and Qing Mei’s father and daughter have been reunited in the underworld, but their understanding of Su Mo and the secrets related to Su Mo have spread to how many people they have when they are alive. This matter is difficult to tell and cannot be verified.
At least at the moment, when Yuan Qiu learned that someone had told Meng Xian that Mr. Lan Yu was Su Mo, he thought about it and suspected that the insider who was hiding in the dark and uneasy was probably learned directly or indirectly from Qing Jue and Qing Mei father and daughter.
The fact that Su Mo is Qing Su, the heir of Qing Jue, and the murderer who killed his master and usurped the throne is now known to everyone in the world.
Yuan Qiu knew that even if Qing Jue Qingmei died, sooner or later, people related to them would emerge.
The number of unknown disciples that those young people have taken in the world is still unknown. What Su Mo and Yuan Qiu have found now are just a few of the original royal nobles of the Three Kingdoms.
How many of those who have not been discovered will choose to live an ordinary life without Qing Jue's control? Yuan Qiu believes that there may be, but it must be a minority. Because except Su Mo, Qing Jue's other secret disciples are similar to Ji Chang and Lu Zhe who are not happy in life and are uneasy in the status quo.
Lu Zhe's current "returning to evil" is caused by many factors, and it is also related to his being Yuan Qiu's cousin. Otherwise, his ending might be similar to the two apprentices that Qing Jue accepted in the Jun royal family.
Rong Yuancheng talked about what happened yesterday. The first part was Lu Zhe told him, and the second part was what he saw and heard with his own eyes.
After eating the buns, Su Mo wiped his hands, folded the veil and placed it in front of him, thinking about something.
Yuan Qiu never interrupted Rong Yuancheng. When he heard Lu Zhe interrogating Xuan Si last night, his face became solemn.
"This was found in the fake nun's room." Rong Yuancheng took out a stack of copied scriptures from his arms, and put them on the table with a piece of yellowed paper.
Yuan Qiu looked at the portrait on the paper and the birth date with faint ink marks, and felt that this should be the portrait of Feng Jinbao when he was young.
And the words in the scriptures are indeed as Rong Yuancheng said, and they are no different from those in the portrait.
But after twenty years, the words written were exactly the same and had no flaws, and this matter itself was the biggest flaw.
After comparing Su Fuzhen, who also learned carving with Rong Lan, he nodded and said, "It was imitated by experts."
Since this is the case, Rong Yuancheng's judgment is true. If the portrait is true and the handwriting on it is written by Rong Hao's wife, then the person who wrote this scripture must not be Rong Hao's wife.
In short, Xuan Siding is an impersonation.
It also conforms to what Yuan Qiu said before, "The bad guy cannot be the Rong family member". Although this is not absolute, it has not been broken so far.
Now, the only Rong Hao is the Rong family who has a stain. His "stain" is mainly for Feng Jinbao. Feng Jinbao cannot understand or accept the emotional matter of "the biological father sends him to die for another child". This has nothing to do with the rest of the Rong family, Lin Song, and Rong Lan.
Feng Jinbao has never met Rong Hao, and his understanding of him comes from Rong Lan. He and Lin Song are alive, but Rong Hao has long been dead. Rather than saying that Feng Jinbao cannot forgive Rong Hao for giving up him, it is better to say that Feng Jinbao never understands what kind of person Rong Hao is, and what he thought when Rong Hao changed his son?
Rong Hao's wife is a person who was mentioned by the Rong family but could only be told in one word. It's not that she doesn't care, it's because she is too mysterious. No one knows who she is, and it's even more impossible to know how she was back then and what happened later.
Now, a woman who claims to be Rong Hao’s wife suddenly appears. Xuan Si is fake. This matter itself is second-most important. Where did Xuan Si get the portrait of Feng Jinbao in his childhood? Where did she know what she knows about Rong Hao?
"Do you know?" Yuan Qiu asked.
Rong Yuancheng shook his head, "My mother has entered the palace and has not come back yet. When I came here, I met my cousin and didn't tell him."
They all knew that Feng Jinbao could not not want to know who his biological mother was. Now she was dead or alive. Even if it was just out of curiosity, Feng Jinbao did not mention it.
After interrogating Xuan Si, he had not yet obtained the result they wanted, and Yuan Qiu felt that there was no need to tell Feng Jinbao immediately, it was just a matter of increasing his worries.
"I will tell my mother about this. I will leave it to Lu Zhe for the next question of Xuan Si. After all, he is not a member of the Rong family and is more suitable for doing such things than us." Rong Yuancheng said.
His meaning is not that Lu Zhe enjoys torture people, but that Xuan Si is clearly coming to Rong's family. Her reaction to Rong's family is definitely different from that to Lu Zhe, and the things she will explain are different. Let Lu Zhe deal with it first, and the Rong family comes forward at the right time.
"Her strength is not inferior to Lu Zhe?" Su Mo asked.
"That's right." Lu Zhe's voice sounded at the gate of Guanlan Courtyard, and he strode in. Jun Lingxin also came, but now at Jun Lingyue's place, their son was there.
There were only four seats in the viewing pavilion. Lu Zhe sat between Rong Yuancheng and Yuanqiu. He saw a bun on the table, so he picked it up and ate it.
As the inducer and witness of yesterday's events, Lu Zhe has the most say.
The three of them waited for Lu Zhe to finish the buns, and then he continued, "Qing Jue should know that his brother-in-law is Mr. Lan Yu?"
Lu Zhe inferred from the time when Mr. Lan Yu was published. Qing Jue was not dead at that time, and Su Mo was not old. No secret could escape a secret like Qing Jue.
Seeing Su Mo nodding, Lu Zhe pondered, "There are no fewer women in this world, but they are rare compared to men. Only he knows how many female apprentices Qing Jue has ever accepted."
Situ Ying is Qingjue's apprentice, but the fact that Qingjue has almost no female apprentice she knows is from young people like her and Su Mo. Going forward, people like Ji Chang's generation, Qingjue's apprentice hides deeper.
"I and that woman were fighting in Xiuqing'an. Her martial arts didn't seem to be taught by Qing Jue." Lu Zhe's tone was very certain.
Lu Zhe has actually come into contact with Qing Jue's disciples. Although their martial arts skills are different, they inevitably have Qing Jue's shadow, especially those who have been practicing martial arts since childhood. This is difficult to disguise, especially in real battles.
Yesterday, Xuan Si was deliberately tempted by Lu Zhe and later became poisoned and defeated. Lu Zhe saw her true strength and tricks.
Before Lu Zhe came, Yuan Qiu originally suspected that the woman might be one of Qing Jue's apprentices, but Lu Zhe's judgment denied this.
"The woman's bones were very hard, and I made a ruthless move, but she always insisted that she was Rong Hao's wife. She claimed that the person Rong Hao really loved was his aunt, and she let her down. She resented her aunt and counted her son's affairs on her aunt." Lu Zhe snorted lightly, "Although Yuancheng's eyes were poisonous, he could see through that woman at a glance, to be honest, I think she might really know at least one of Rong Hao and his wife. Regarding Rong Hao's love for his aunt, and running away from home was also because of his aunt's incident. I think it should be true."
Yuan Qiu sighed slightly, "Hope is not."
Rong Lan mentioned Rong Hao now and still regarded him as his brother. When Rong Hao suddenly married his wife and left home, Rong Lan had a year left before her hairpin. At that time, everything in the Rong family was fine. Rong Lan was full of energy, devoted himself to practicing martial arts, studied military books hard, and determined to be a female general. Even if Rong Hao really fell in love with this sister, Rong Lan did not notice it at all. After all, before the accident of the Rong family, Rong Lan lived a smooth life from childhood to adulthood and was simple-minded.
If Rong Hao had not left home, many things might have been different. Now it would be meaningless to assume this. But if Rong Hao really chose to exile himself because he fell in love with Rong Hao, and then found a woman he didn't love to become a child, and exchanged his biological son with Rong Lan's nephew... How could Rong Lan feel? How did she view the open and cheerful brother in her memory? How did Feng Jinbao think of the biological father who sent him to death?
"Next, let me review it?" Lu Zhe asked.
Rong Yuancheng nodded, "You try again. If it doesn't work, send her here again."
Lu Zhe collected so many torture instruments, but he had never used them before yesterday. When he used them last night, he was thinking about how to make Xuan Si speak, but he didn't feel the pleasure of abuse. Now he is already in a lack of interest.
"I will find a way, but don't have too much hope. That woman is not an ordinary person, with such high martial arts skills, and has hidden weapons on her body, and things related to the Rong family. She also knows that Su Mo is Lan Yu. Anyway, since she is not Feng Jinbao's biological mother, she will definitely not be a loner, and there may be someone behind her. If she is a dead soldier, no matter how much I torture her, I may not be able to ask anything." This is the conclusion that Lu Zhe came to the Rong family today, sorting out the things over the past two days, and drawing.
"Just just be careful and don't let her die." Yuan Qiu said.
Lu Zhe raised his eyebrows, "It sounds like my cousin has a solution?"
Yuan Qiu nodded, "That's true, but it's not ready yet, and it will take some time."
Rong Yuancheng was a little puzzled, "What does third sister mean?"
To be continued...
