Qin Muyun's eyes moved slightly, "Although I faintly feel that He Fu and the others are trying to bury your father's traces, I just can't figure out why. But now, after reading your father's account book, I understand a little bit." Her eyes like autumn water A strange light flashed in his eyes, "Xianci, although I don't want you to take it out, but if you want, just take it out."

After listening to her, Zhao Xianci was stunned for a while, and asked, "Why do you think they concealed it?"

"Of course it's because Mr. Zhao didn't investigate." Qin Muyun said slowly, "Once someone investigates these matters, the Zhao family may face a catastrophe. Therefore, they don't want anyone to intervene in your father's case, otherwise, I don't know How many people will be involved."

Zhao Xianci was silent for a moment, "Why didn't the court investigate?"

"I don't know," Qin Muyun shook his head, "Xianci, we are still too young and haven't experienced much. I'm afraid your father's matter is not simple. But from my instinct, I think it's better not to reveal the matter of Mr. Zhao in front of others. good."

"That being said," Zhao Xianci caressed the mezzanine with his fingertips, and said slowly, "But as my father, no matter the severity of the matter, he always has to be connected with the Zhao family. As his daughter, it is naturally difficult for me to stay out of it."

She let out a soft breath, "In this case, instead of being kept in the dark, or see clearly."

So I took the needle, carefully poked through the thin thread connecting each page, and finally took out the thin paper in the interlayer.

Zhao Xianci held his breath, and with the help of Qin Muyun, unfolded the paper lightly, and was shocked when he saw the content on it.

"This--"

It turned out to be just a portrait?

That's it?

The woman in the painting has bright eyes and is about 19 years old, but she is full of energy, and her demeanor and behavior are full of elegance and nobility that cannot be concealed.However, the clothes on her body are extremely ordinary, like a girl next door.

The whole paper is spread out, about the size of two pages.But there was only one painting on the paper, not even an inscription.

Zhao Xianci and Qin Muyun looked at each other, even a little embarrassed: "This can't be my father's confidante, right? I don't know what to hide."

Having said that, Zhao Xianci always felt that the eyebrows and eyes of the person in the painting looked familiar, but he couldn't remember them for a while.

"Perhaps, this is the mysterious Yueniang?" Qin Muyun guessed, "If Yueniang was really so famous in the Southern Province back then, even Uncle Fu and the others couldn't forget it, then Mr. Zhao fell in love with her. , is also within reason.”

"It's quite mysterious. I don't know what happened back then, so I can't find out." Zhao Xianci looked at the person in the painting and murmured, "But I always feel that this person looks familiar, but I can't remember it. "

Qin Muyun smiled and said, "If you really met her, you should never forget her, why can't you remember?"

"It's familiar, but if you say you've seen it—that's not necessarily true."

They couldn't find anything for a while, which made the two of them nervous for a while.

Qin Muyun has already started to write the companion chapter of "Happy Two Lovers". The book is not long, but there are only a few plots describing how the two families colluded together. In order to prevent the book's deterrent effect from being enough, I specially added the joint embezzlement of disaster relief funds. thing.

Folk operas are sung, and there are often new chapters based on actual events, which have never been cared about.The Wei and Yang families were in charge of "Happy Two Lovers", but they didn't expect that after Zhao Xianci once again spent money to ask someone to compose and sing the sequel written by Qin Muyun, this play would be sung by the common people under a different name in private.

Because it was a new title, the two families didn't pay much attention to it at first, and it was not until "Two Traitors" became more and more widely sung that it caught their attention again.Yang Shixian's face was livid, and he called two singers to the house. After they finished singing, they secretly beat them to death.

And so began a new round of banning the play.

But this is not the solution after all, banning one after another.Yang Shixian said gloomyly, "Father, why don't we just ban teahouses from performing operas? A group of unscrupulous people are idle and spreading rumors every day to make trouble."

"Although it's a way, there is no rule in the imperial court's law that people should not be allowed to perform." Yang Can showed no expression on his face, but was actually very anxious.

"Father! The laws are still made by people. Now you have the final say in this southern province. It's not a big deal to ban opera."

"Okay, you can make up your own mind as a father. You should step down first."

Yang Shixian wanted to say something more, but seeing his father's stinky face, he didn't dare to say any more, and bowed his hands and retreated.

Yang Shen called him again, "You'd better calm down for a while, don't go anywhere, you know? Also, don't go to your Aunt Yao again, anyway, she is now your aunt's generation."

Hearing this, Yang Shixian's face became even uglier, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word, "Yes."

But he gave Yang Shen a vicious look.

The watery girl was clearly brought back by him from outside, but his father took a fancy to him and took him as his concubine.Say what is for his own good, so as not to affect his marriage contract with Miss Jingzhong——Yang Shixian gritted his teeth, this old pervert, speaking in a high-sounding manner, is not just for sex!

However, no one can say such things.

For a while, Yang Shixian still missed Zhao Qinian's idiot.

At least, at this time, he can give Zhao Qinian a meal to relieve his anger.

However, Yang Shixian didn't know that at this moment, Zhao Qinian's life was not easy.

The boat to Beijing passed through Nan Province and passed through Jiangcheng. Seeing that it was getting farther and farther away from Nan Province, it was robbed one day.

The people in the boat ran and fled, and even scrambled for the gold, silver, soft goods and food on board.

The Zhao family's mother and son have never seen such a battle!Seeing that the situation was not going well, Zhao Qinian also went to fight for it, but he was used to being pampered, and he usually had a cold face, and the servants in the family trembled. He never thought that now that he was vulnerable, anyone could step on him.

In the end, everything was looted, even the boat was taken.

The mother and son had to disembark and flee for their lives.

Fortunately, Ji Fulan still had some money hidden in her body, so she reluctantly settled down in an unnamed small town.

I thought it was bad enough, but I never expected that the debt collectors from Nan Province could still be found!

The little money left by the two of them has indeed bottomed out this time.

Ji Fulan was stopped by someone, and the group of vicious-looking people beat Zhao Qinian without any reason, and they didn't care what Zhao Qinian said, let alone begging them to go back to the southern province to ask Zhao Kang for help.

Because Zhao Qinian was beaten up several times, Ji Fulan pressed her repeatedly in distress, and finally knew the reason, and almost passed away in a fit of anger.

"You—you bastard!"

After Ji Fulan woke up, tears kept falling.

The two hid in the corner of the street full of filth, Ji Fulan angrily picked up a dead tree branch nearby, and greeted Zhao Qinian.

Zhao Qinian couldn't dodge in time, so he was beaten again, and said angrily, "Mother, are you crazy? It's not enough for others to beat me, you still beat me!"

However, Ji Fulan didn't stop, "I'll kill you useless thing!"

After all, it is difficult for anyone to calmly accept the news that their family property has been wiped out.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Qinian didn't even dare to mention that his house was mortgaged by him.

Seeing no hope of reaching the capital, let alone raising money, Zhao Qinian, who was constantly evading debts and living in panic, finally vaguely realized that he might have been cheated by that Zhao Kang?

He gritted his back molars angrily, but he had no choice but to swallow his breath under the situation that he could not protect himself.

What's more, Zhao Qinian, who has been pampered since he was a child, has never suffered from this kind of suffering?He lived in no fixed place and hid everywhere, and he couldn't even eat enough.But in just half a month, he lost his temper, and even thought that as long as Zhao Kang was willing to help him, he would be generous enough not to care about Zhao Kang's bad intentions.

It's a pity that Boss Zhao is busy saving people, so he doesn't know what's going on in his mind - if Ms. Zhao knew, I'm afraid Zhao Qinian's suffering will be increased by three points.

There has been a lot of jitters in the southern province recently.

Originally singing was nothing, but it put some pressure on the two families.

But if the past is sung in a few words in the play, it will inevitably make people shudder.

Wei Mian is over half a hundred years old, and he has not cared about family affairs these years, and all family matters have been handed over to his eldest son Wei Yi.

But on important matters, Wei Yi still had to ask Wei Mian for instructions, for example, Wei Qingmei's marriage was approved by him.

Now, this play, which is nicknamed "Two Traitors" among the people, made Wei Mian break out in cold sweat, and could no longer sit still at home.

After hearing the play, he rushed to Yang Can's house overnight to discuss the matter in detail.

Yang Shen is also sleepless day and night.He has always been greedy for money and lustful, but he does a good job of superficial skills on weekdays, and ordinary people can't see it. Even Qin Zhihan, the censor who supervises the officials in the south of the Yangtze River, seems to have been deceived by him.

But the more so, Yang Canyue dared not let people bring up the past.

"This Zhao self-examination is probably left behind, my lord," Wei Mian couldn't help wiping off the cold sweat, "We have lived in peace all these years, why did this show happen when something happened to the Du family, Master Yang , you should think about it clearly."

Yang Shen interrupted him impatiently, "Your son was the one who wanted to arrest Du Sanyou and his son, but now he wants me to think clearly, hmph, why, why not let you be the magistrate?"

Wei Mian was so frightened that he knelt down. The nearly sixty-year-old man knelt in front of Yang Shen, "My lord, please calm down. The little old man is anxious. I have offended you. I hope you will forgive me."

The look in Yang Shen's eyes changed, and then he sat down and said, "Get up, I didn't mean to target you, you are anxious and I am also anxious." After a pause, he said, "Sure enough, Zhao Zixing is not easy to get along with, he is dead. After so many years, I can still make waves.”

Wei Mian kept his eyes on his nose and his heart, and easily stopped talking.

Yang Shen said to himself, "His death has nothing to do with us, I'm not afraid." He also said that in the past two years, he always felt that someone was reversing the old score, "It's just this Du family—Master Wei, or you Just let Qingmei and Du Hanlin be fulfilled. It's good if something like this happens now, at least we can be sure that Zhao Zixing has indeed left behind and is protecting his former group of people. Your family should be more restrained in the future, so don't offend easily People like Du Sanyou, and that Zhao Kang—"

Yang Shen frowned, "If he is really Zhao Zixing's illegitimate son, then I'm afraid it can only be that person's blood, and we can't afford to offend him even more." People searched for a long time, but no matter how they searched, they found that Zhao Kang's background was not bad at all, "No wonder Qin Yushi was willing to marry his daughter to him."

This seems to further corroborate Yang Shen's guess.

But the more so, the more scared Yang Shen felt.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this Zhao Kang's identity is probably tricky, but you just can't find out the clues, so and so, when you think about it, isn't it shocking?
