After the death of the villain

"mother……"

Xie Xiangying called out, and the woman hugged Xie Xiangying and the girl beside her in her arms.

"You are dead, how can a mother live."

The three of them sat on the snow, hugged each other tightly, and let their tears flow like a big river.

Xie Xiang greeted the person in his arms, his eyes were sore.

Pain is for the living, and Xie Xiangying, as a dead person, wakes up now, so the pain is not for himself.

It should have been a very lucky thing to come back from the dead, but now he has mixed feelings in his heart.Shengjing is a prosperous and frightening place, and once he stepped into it, he would fall into the net of conspiracy again. He was really tired, and he didn't want to become someone's pawn and become the authority.

"Brother, let's go home."

The little girl beside him said something, Xie Xiangying nodded, and took the child's hand.

Xie Xiangying was taken from the cemetery to a dilapidated small courtyard by the two.There were only two or three houses in the yard, and the walls were dilapidated.

In a few words, Xie Xiangying also knew the situation of this family.The original owner is a teacher, the woman is Lin Shuang, the girl is Xie Ying, all three are from Jiaolan County.

Xie Xiangying learned from the bruises on his body and the old woman's mouth that the original owner owed countless debts and finally was desperate and was beaten up by the moneylender and died of a heart attack.

The poor and lowly people are sad for everything.

Xie Xiangying looked at the roof that was constantly leaking snowflakes, feeling a little sad in his heart.

"It's all my mother's fault. If it wasn't for my illness, how could we owe so much money?"

Lin Shuang was so excited that she coughed a few times, Xie Xiangying hurriedly helped her to the couch.

There is no one to blame. Without Lin Shuang, his son would not be able to grow up.

"Mom, I... can't remember many things."

Xie Xiangying didn't know whether to reveal his true identity, but he couldn't bear to look at Lin Shuang's teary eyes.What's more, once his identity is exposed, Lin Shuang will only be involved in that net once he is exposed.

Lin Shuang was stunned for a long time when she heard this sentence before saying, "It's better not to remember, it's better not to remember."

As if thinking of something, Lin Shuang took Xie Xiangying's hand and said again: "Let's not go to teach anymore, we will farm at home and not go anywhere..."

This is for Xie Xiangying, and also for himself.

Xie Xiangying nodded, with a slight bitter smile on his face.

Looking at Lin Shuang, he suddenly remembered that he still had one thing to ask: "Mom, what's my name?"

"Encounter, thank you for meeting."

After Lin Shuang's words fell, Xie Xiangying's heart skipped a beat.

Xie Xiangfeng, like the name, seems to have been arranged in the dark.

"What time is it now?"

Xie Xiangying really wanted to know how many years passed after he closed his eyes, preferably hundreds of years, so that he would never have to face Ling Lang again.

"You don't remember these either." Lin Shuang thought for a while and said, "It's the second year that the new sheriff has been here."

"The name of the new county guard is Wang Haidong?" Xie Xiangying asked him.

Lin Shuang nodded: "You still remember, Mr. Wang treated us very well. He and you are old acquaintances."

Xie Xiangying knew this and reacted for a while before it was a good day.It's only been the second year since the new governor took office, that is to say, it's only been a year and a half since the battle between Dongling and Beiqi.

How come it's only been a year and a half.

Seeing that Xie Xiangying bowed his head and said nothing, Lin Shuang thought that he was worried about the debt: "Tomorrow I will help you quit your job as a teacher. Let's find another one and pay off the debt slowly. Right now, my health is still good, so I don't need to take any more medicine." , planting some vegetables and selling them can support you.”

"The son has hands and feet, how can he let his mother support him? It's freezing cold now, so he must not be able to farm the land. It's better to go to teach again."

Xie Xiangying didn't know what book the original bishop was reading, but he had read the book, even Ling Lang had taught it, and others could teach it too.

Hearing that Xie Xiangying was going to teach again, Lin Shuang tugged at his sleeve and said, "Don't go again, listen to Mother's persuasion, don't go again."

"What happened?"

Seeing Lin Shuang's excited look, the teaching place is not a dragon's pool or a tiger's den.

Lin Shuang frowned, and didn't know what to say. She was so glad that her son could forget the past, but she was afraid that he would not remember the lesson and repeat the same mistakes.

"You used to teach in another man's house. That family is not a good one. Don't go there again."

Lin Shuang's eyes were full of worry, and his eyes fell on Xie Xiangying. If it weren't for those people, how could his son be beaten.

Hearing what Lin Shuang said, Xie Xiangying also understood a little bit, thinking that this person must have taught in some powerful mansion in the past, and he was beaten so badly, maybe he offended the rich man by his words and deeds.

"Then I'll resign. I'll go there in person tomorrow, and then I'll go to the town to see if I can find a job as a writer or painter."

"it is good……"

Hearing what Xie Xiangying said, Lin Shuang felt relieved.

She was still reluctant to let go of Xie Xiangying's sleeves, and looked at Xie Xiangying again and again with tears in her eyes.

Lost and recovered is the most precious, but also the most embarrassing.

Xie Xiangying comforted Lin Shuang, and began to think about livelihood matters.

Sitting in the house just now, it is a bit colder than the outside, the snow is so heavy now, two of the three rooms are leaking snow and wind, it needs to be repaired as soon as possible.

A person slept overnight in a leaky room, and woke up the next day with a blocked nose.

Xie Xiangying woke up early from the cold and went to fetch some water to wash his face.

The clear water reflected the appearance of a person, and Xie Xiangying saw an extremely handsome face in the water, with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like stars, and no blemishes on his cheeks.

It looks so pretty.

Xie Xiangying has never had much obsession with his appearance, he is born from his heart, no matter who he is born on, he will live as himself in the end.

However, since they are all reborn, why can't it be on a man who is five big and three thick, so that others will not dare to bully him.

Xie Xiangying thought of this and smiled helplessly.

He packed his clothes, went back to the house and asked where the mansion where he used to teach was, and took some copper coins and left the house.

The small courtyard of Lin Shuang's family is on the edge of Jiaolan County. There are very few shops, and most of them are farmers.

Xie Xiangying walked for half a day before arriving outside the mansion before noon.

He looked up, and saw the three big characters "Chengwangfu" written on the magnificent plaque.

Cheng Wang's mansion is actually surnamed Ling again.

Xie Xiangying frowned. He really didn't have a good impression of the Ling clan's way of doing one thing in person and another way behind their backs.

Seeing Xie Xiangying, the guard of Chengwang's mansion also frowned.

"Why do you still have the face to come here? Aren't you afraid that the young master will hit you?" The guard took a few steps forward and advised, "Listen to us, the young master is not someone you can imagine, so just go away and get away. To save your life."

"I'm here to hand in my resignation."

Xie Xiangying took out the prepared letter from his pocket. He didn't know what kind of grievances the original owner had with Prince Cheng's Mansion. Right now, it seemed that he had not yet reached the point of incomprehensibility, so he left after handing over the letter.

"Resignation." The guard was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Xie Xiangying to hand in his resignation. He glanced at Xie Xiangying and asked, "You really want to leave."

Xie Xiangying's eyes drooped slightly, with a calm and breezy attitude.

Seeing Xie Xiangying's attitude, the guard couldn't help being surprised, this man was crying and pestering their young master half a month ago, why now he seems to have changed his personality.

"If there is nothing wrong, we will meet and say goodbye."

After Xie Xiangying finished speaking, he turned around and went to the street to blend in with the crowd.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so he has to find a way to repair the roof first.

Xie Xiangying is very fortunate that he was born in a peasant family this time.An ordinary person, a kind mother, and a cute little sister.Perhaps in the next few decades, he will stay in Jiaolan County and live his ordinary life.

Chen Xing manages the barrenness and filth, and returns with the moon lotus.Xie Xiangying didn't realize how difficult such a life is until now.

Xie Xiangying walked around the street and bought some materials to repair the roof and prepared to do it himself.I couldn't go back at noon, so I sat in a porridge shop and bought buns and clear porridge.

The people sitting around were talking about the battle a year ago, Xie Xiangying listened carefully and came up with some important information.

In the battle that year, Tangling's army was besieged by the Three Kingdoms, and Li Yuan's old troops took the opportunity to control the capital of Tangling.King Dongling suffered heavy losses and fled in the chaos.Ninth Prince Li Yuan took advantage of it and became the new King of Dongling.

Several countries have signed a contract that there will be no war within ten years.

Ling Lang won, but the Queen of Northern Qi died.

This queen named Xie Xiangying had a very good reputation among the common people, and it was said that she committed a crime in the Dongling Camp because of Ling Lang alone, but in the end she resisted and was shot by the Dongling people.Ling Lang loves his wife deeply, so he brought the queen's body back to the palace, got seriously ill, and suffered from heart disease ever since.

"I heard that our empress is the reincarnation of Taifu Xie Yin, who came to protect us in Northern Qi."

"The appearance of welcoming the queen is exactly the same as Lord Xie's. Our Majesty really has a deep affection for the Taifu."

"'True is false, sometimes false is true, every dream is still a dream', the love between the queen and your majesty is contained in these words."

……

With such words, Xie Xiangying almost vomited.Ling Lang wasn't that affectionate, he would just leave himself in Dongling to suffer, and then be a bastard tortoise who doesn't do anything.

The porridge in the bowl was completely cold, Xie Xiangying followed the principle of not wasting anything, drank it clean in one go.

As soon as he put down the bowl, he saw a handsome man in crow blue clothes throwing a few copper coins on the porridge shop.

Wang Haidong.

Xie Xiangying raised his head and looked at this person with burning eyes.

Wang Haidong noticed Xie Xiangying's gaze and recognized him: "Meet each other."

This man knew him.

Xie Xiang put a smile on his face and said: "Master Wang."

Wang Haidong walked towards Xie Xiang, sat opposite him, looked him up and down, and said, "What's wrong with you, I heard about you a few days ago..."

Xie Xiangying wanted to say that he was indeed dead, but after another thought, it was better not to talk about such ghosts and gods.

"I slept for so long that even my mother thought I was dead."

"you……"

Wang Haidong seemed hesitant to speak, which made Xie Xiangying a little curious.

"What do you want to say?" Xie Xiangying asked.

Wang Haidong struggled again, opened his lips and said, "Leave Chengwang's mansion and come to my place to do business."

He and Xie Xiangfeng are old acquaintances, when he went north to find a way out, Xie Xiangfeng stayed in the south, who knew that he was harmed by the palace of Na Cheng.If he had known this earlier, he should have taken Xie Xiangfeng away with him.

"I'm leaving Chengwang's mansion, you let me go, I don't know what to do."

Lin Shuang also told him about Wang Haidong's situation.This person once studied together with Xie Xiangfeng, presumably there was some friendship.

Hearing that Xie Xiangfeng was about to leave, Wang Haidong couldn't help being a little surprised: "You really let Ling Qinghe go?"

"Ling Qinghe?" Who is this person? Xie Xiangying thought for a moment, then said to Wang Haidong, "Brother Wang, I woke up this time and forgot a lot of things. I really can't remember the Ling Qinghe you mentioned."

"This……"

Wang Haidong didn't know what to say for a while, he looked at Xie Xiangying's body covered in injuries, and knew that something bad must have happened to him.Now that he has forgotten about Ling Qinghe, he won't go into details.

"Meeting, it's a good thing that you can forget him. Although Ling Qinghe is the son of King Cheng and has a high position and authority, after all, he is not someone like you and me who can cling to him."

"climb……"

After listening to Wang Haidong's words, Xie Xiangying also understood something, presumably the original owner had intended to join Ling Qinghe but was rejected.

Ling Qinghe is the son of King Cheng, how could he need a poor scholar to take care of him.

"It's a good thing that you and I meet again today, why don't you go to a bar with me." Wang Haidong suggested.

On this cold day, Xie Xiangying also wanted to drink some wine to warm up, but he is not a drinker, and Lin Shuang is waiting at home, so it is really difficult to drink at this moment.

"I just woke up. If I go back late, I will worry my mother."

"It's okay, let's buy some food and drink and go to your house."

"Then, respect is worse than obedience."

The two got up immediately and packed some food and drinks to the nearby restaurant.

The food and drinks were paid by Wang Haidong, and Xie Xiangying knew that he always valued friendship, so he was not polite.

The two went to the house in the south of the city. Lin Shuang saw Wang Haidong and Xie Xiangying coming back together, with a look of joy on his face.

"Master Wang, why don't you say a word when you come here."

Over the years in Jiaolan County, Wang Haidong has done a lot of things to benefit the people, and he is loved by the people.

Seeing Lin Shuang greet him personally, Wang Haidong hurriedly said, "We met on the road, don't prepare, auntie, we are old acquaintances, let's have a good meal today."

"well……"

Lin Shuang nodded her head, her eyes were a little moist, she turned around, only said that she was going to the neighbor's house to pick up Xie Ying, and then left.

Xie Xiangying looked at Lin Shuang, and couldn't help but feel a little touched.Now that he is here, he doesn't know how the Xie family is being tortured in Shengjing.

And Zhuo Ying, that girl is very stubborn, she probably won't choose a new host.

Wang Haidong followed Xie Xiangying into the house, and seeing the bare walls of the house, he couldn't help saying: "Meeting, you've been living here all this time."

"Just repair the roof." Xie Xiangying sat on the couch and pulled the low table between the two of them.

Wang Haidong put the food and wine on the table, and took some pieces of silver from his pocket and put them on the table.

"grown ups……"

"You didn't accept what I gave you in the past, but you must accept the money today, and you will pay me back after you open the monthly payment." Wang Haidong's words were in a tone that could not be refused.

Xie Xiangying smiled and said: "That's disrespectful, and I will repay the favor of Yongquan in the future."

Xie Xiangying took care to put away those broken pieces of silver. Now it's not like in the past that you can spend a lot of money, and a copper coin may be related to the food and clothing of the next meal.

The two warmed up the wine and talked a lot while eating.

Wang Haidong usually has a tight mouth, and he was cut off from the chatterbox after a few glasses of wine.

Xie Xiangying learned a lot about Xie Xiangfeng from Wang Haidong.This man was soft-tempered when he was young, and he was a complete doormat. When Wang Haibei went to Dongbei, Xie Xiangfeng was recommended to Cheng Wang's mansion to teach the lessons of the third son of Cheng Wang's family.This third young master's temper was not very good. Many teachers were dismissed within a few days of teaching, and only Xie Xiangfeng, a soft-tempered person who could be manipulated by others, taught for more than a year without leaving.

It's not worth the candle to get someone's life out of debt collection. Xie Xiangfeng had offended Ling Qinghe before, so it's hard to guarantee that it wasn't Ling Qinghe's doing.

He doesn't know what kind of fate he is, no matter where he goes, he can't escape the surname Ling.

Xie Xiangying sighed and drank two more glasses of warm wine.

The two talked in the middle of the night, drunk, and fell asleep on the couch with their clothes on when they were sleepy.

On the second day, Xie Xiangying woke up from the cold as usual, and by the way, Wang Haidong was also woken up.Wang Haidong tidied up and went out.

Xie Xiangying originally wanted to stay for a meal, but Wang Haidong said that he would welcome officials from the imperial court to inspect at night, so he didn't want to stay any longer.

Xie Xiangying took advantage of the snow to stop and repaired the roof with old tiles and other materials.

Most of the silver left by Wang Haidong, Xie Xiangying used to add winter clothes to Lin Shuang and Xie Ying, and the rest went to the market to buy a few hens.

Chickens lay eggs, at least they will be able to eat eggs in the future.

Xie Xiangying looked at the chicken coop he had built with rattan, and smiled with satisfaction.

Xie Ying was wearing newly made clothes, chasing hens in the yard to play.

Lin Shuang was very happy when she saw her son, who used to be drunk in the house, busy cleaning up the house.Not only did his son come back to life, but his heart also came back to life.

Xie Xiangying has a pair of dexterous hands, he can dance with pen and ink, and can also carry all kinds of tools.In less than ten days, Xie Xiangying repaired the fence surrounding the yard one by one.Although the inside and outside of the house cannot be said to be brand new, it is much better than the previous place where there was wind and snow leakage.

After doing this, you have to find a job that comes with money.

Xie Xiangying looked through the ledger, and found that the original owner, Lin Linzong, owed the money lender Wu shopkeeper 300 taels of silver.

Today is different from the past, Xie Xiangying didn't even look at the 300 taels of silver in the past, but now he knows how difficult it is to earn.

I walked around the busy market, but couldn't find a suitable livelihood, so I bought some snacks and planned to go to the Sheriff's Mansion.

He knows some poems and books, and he can also do accounts. It should not be difficult to find a messenger in the county guard's mansion.

Xie Xiangying was carrying his things and was about to go to the main entrance, when he suddenly found that there were many guards with knives around the county guard's mansion today.

There are so many guards, even the Prince Regent's Mansion never had it.Xie Xiangying thought of what Wang Haidong had said a few days ago that someone from the court would come to inspect, and suddenly realized what was going on.

This inspection has always been a matter of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so the envoy Mu Qingzhou may have come here in person for such a big battle.

Xie Xiangying thought of this, turned around and went to the side door.

Several guards at the side gate recognized him, and immediately reported to Wang Haidong, and not long after, the housekeeper of the county guard's mansion went out to pick him up.

Xie Xiangying followed the butler to the yard where the guests were received.Walking through many corridors along the way, Xie Xiangying's clothes were thin, shivering uncontrollably due to the draft.

As he was walking, he suddenly saw a man led by Wang Haidong in the distance.

The housekeeper stood by the road, and Xie Xiangying stood behind the housekeeper.His eyes turned to Wang Haidong, and when he saw the person next to Wang Haidong, he was shocked.

The person walking on the remnant snow was wearing a black brocade jacket with narrow sleeves, his black hair was tied behind his head by a golden crown, and the broken hair hanging from his forehead moved with the wind, revealing a pair of deep eyes dyed with thick ink.

He looked at the gravel road not far away, with a little impatience on his handsome face.

Brocade clothes and light fur, this person has always been so dazzling that people can't take their eyes off.

It's Ling Lang.

Xie Xiangying's heart flickered, and the sourness buried deep in his heart suddenly surged up.

During these days in Jiaolan County, Xie Xiangying often thought about what he was to Ling Lang.This person who keeps saying that he likes him and can't live without him, always puts him last when encountering matters related to the community.

Li Yun's words were more or less intended to sow discord, but Xie Xiangying really listened to it.For four full months, he was in Li Yun's hands for four full months, and he didn't know how he survived.

In the past two times when he died, he would return to Shengjing and Northern Qi.But this time, he wanted to escape from that place.

Xie Xiangying took a deep breath, tightened the snack in his hand, and lowered his gaze to the ground, not looking at Ling Lang.

Now that he has changed his appearance, Ling Lang probably won't recognize him.

"grown ups."

The butler called out.

Seeing Xie Xiangying, Wang Haidong told the butler, "Take Mr. Xie to the lobby and wait."

"Yes."

"Master Xie." A cool voice came out of his thin lips, and Ling Lang raised his eyes to look at the young man standing in front of him.

Wang Haidong explained: "This is Chen's classmate, Xie... Mrs. Xie."

Wang Haidong did not mention his name. The words "Xie Xiangfeng" and "Xie Xiangying" were too similar, he was afraid that this poor man would be brought into trouble again.

"The surname is also Xie." Ling Lang said, and quietly sized him up.

Xie Xiangying is now suffering from chronic diseases and hidden diseases all year round, and her complexion is much paler than ordinary people.It's the cold season right now, people are wearing thin clothes, their face is morbidly red from the cold, and the ink-colored eyelashes tremble slightly in the cold wind, which is very pitiful.

Looking at the person in front of him, Ling Lang felt a dull pain in his heart for some reason.

The author has something to say:

Xie Xiangying: Just die of pain
