Changfeng has a place to return

The little girl was sweating profusely, and she was also dressed as a bride, crying like a weak animal. Tong Ou hugged her tightly, her hands on her back trembling slightly.The people who were onlookers were already terrified by this scene. They used living people to sacrifice to the river god, thinking that this kind of thing would only appear in the stories of the older generation, but they did not expect to witness it with their own eyes today.

The stone shell is thick and hollow, like a human-shaped sarcophagus, which fell in the bright red firecracker debris all over the floor, with dark eyes, which looks particularly terrifying.The world seemed to stand still at this moment, only the chilly wind blew across the river bank, making the common people get goose bumps.Everyone originally came here with the mood of having a wedding, but they didn't think that they almost sank a living girl into the river with applause and applause.

The little girl was still sobbing unconsciously, Ah Ning brought a few guards from Prince Xiao's Mansion to help, and at this time there were a few kind-hearted aunts, seeing that the people around her were all men, it was inconvenient, but also strong Go forward with courage.They were locals and knew all the dolls in the city well, but they had never seen this little girl.Although she is sick and haggard, she is still a little beauty, with curved eyebrows and long eyes, and her nose is slightly rounded. One of the aunts took a second look at her appearance, but murmured in her heart, this nose is not just like Wan Yuan's when she was a child ?

"Commander Tong." Aning reminded, "It's too cold here, let me take her back to rest first."

Only then did Tong Ou let go of her hand, and the little girl was sent into a carriage that had already been prepared by the street.This time, Shan Qing also rushed over with an official. On the way, he had already heard about the real person hidden in the stone shell, and his whole head would be blown up. As a magistrate, he actually knew that Yufu was not as it appeared on the surface. The hall is so clean and bright, but as long as there is no major disturbance, I don't bother to take care of it. After all, which deep house has few dirty things in the compound?But who would have thought that if there is no accident in the Yu family, it will be a big event of human sacrifice. If it happens, it will be fine if it is passed on to the top?

Tong Ou stood up slowly and looked at the three people on the high platform.

The Yu family's father and son didn't know that he was the hunter back then, they just thought he was an officer and soldier sent by the superior to catch ghosts, and it happened that this happened.Yu Cong sat on the chair out of breath. After Yu Zhong reprimanded Aunt Liu angrily, he realized that he was too reckless. Seeing that Shan Qing and Tong Ou were both there, he could only continue Bite the bullet and said: "Master Shan, Commander Tong, this... This proposal of marriage was made by a wizard. My father is old and obsessed with ghosts, and he can't come out after hearing it. I really can't persuade him." stay."

"Stupid!" Shan Qing scolded in front of the whole city, "Whose girl is that?

"..." Yu Zhong hesitated for a moment, then said, "I bought it from a kidnapper."

"I didn't buy it from a kidnapper." Another voice suddenly came from the crowd, it was Aunt Liu, who stood at the front and said loudly, "This child has been raised in the backyard of Yu Mansion since birth!"

Yu Zhong's face changed, he didn't care that Shan Qing was still there, and ordered his servants to drag her away.Liu Meng stood in front of him with a big knife, and said, "I'll see who dares to touch my mother!"

Shan Qing saw that Aunt Liu knew a lot of inside stories, so he ordered the yamen servant to take him to the government yamen first, and he also had a selfish desire not to let her tell more shocking scandals in public.Having a birthday festival is already shameful enough, if I reveal something else, how can I be promoted or transferred in the future?I'm afraid it's hard to even protect the black gauze hat right now.

Liu Meng stood in front of Aunt Liu and prevented the servants from approaching. Shan Qing's expression sank: "Bold! Didn't you hear what I said?"

"Is it because Liu Meng didn't hear what Mr. Shan said, or Mr. Shan doesn't want to listen to the people?" Liang Shu glanced at the circle of yamen servants, and finally set his eyes on Shan Qing.Shan Qing's heart went numb from the shock of this look, and he still couldn't figure out the identity of the other party, but Yu Zhong had already sensed that the government didn't want to make this matter a big deal, so he shouted: "Your Excellency is talking, how can you tell me?" You interrupted!"

Shan Qing saw that everyone was looking this way, and he had to make a decision, so he gritted his teeth and waved his hand: "Forget it, everyone go back to the government office first, wizard Yinchao, you can also go with me !"

Feeling relieved, Yu Zhong hurriedly ordered his servants to come over with the sedan chair, ready to put his own father inside, and Yin Die also followed behind the yamen servant with a gloomy expression.Seeing this, the common people muttered one after another, and when Liu Meng saw that the yamen servant was going to take his mother away, he was also anxious, and while he stretched out his hand to block it, he hurriedly shouted: "Hey, didn't you say that you are a prince?"

As soon as these words came out, Shan Qing's brain buzzed!But Yinchi's reaction was faster than his, and he immediately fled towards the crowd, his thin body was like a fluttering kite, flying several feet away in a flash.The common people had never seen this strange movement before, and hurriedly hid with their heads in their hands, for fear of being taken away as a hostage if they hid too late, but Yinchi had already yelled and fell into the air.Gao Lin retracted his sword and landed on the ground, with one hand wearing a silver glove, he dragged up the old villain covered in poison and threw it in front of Liang Shu: "My lord."

Shan Qing knelt on the ground with a "plop" and saluted palely: "King Xiao...His Royal Highness King Xiao."

The people around also reacted, kneeling around, Yu Cong was still having difficulty breathing in and out, Liu Xian'an stepped forward and opened his eyelids to look, and said: "Take it to that empty temple, I'll take it for him Get two needles."

Yu Zhong was sweating all over his head, and he only nodded, but he didn't listen to what he was saying at all, and several servants hurriedly carried the master away.At this time, Gao Lin had already asked the people to get up, and helped Aunt Liu to sit on a chair. She has been working in Liu's residence for these years, mainly to support the little girl.

The little girl's name is Shi Taisong. The name sounds burly, and it was calculated by Yindi, implying that the stubborn stones and green pines on Mount Tai are signs of longevity.Aunt Liu said, "The child's mother is Wan Yuan."

The people were dumbfounded, Wan Yuan, that girl from the Wan family?When did she have the baby?

It was born a few months after being imprisoned.

Back then Orion had not returned for a long time, Wan Yuan had a child in her stomach, knowing that she would live in the city soon, she planned to take Wan Gui to a foreign country together, but when she was asking about the carriages, she bumped into Yin Die in the carriage shop After preaching to the proprietress, she stepped forward to expose it, so she aroused a grudge.

All these things were told by Wan Yuan himself to Aunt Liu later when he was imprisoned in the backyard of the Yu Mansion.She is young and pungent, she is straightforward in everything she encounters, and she never thought that someone would try to trick her.A few days after buying the carriage, she went to the street to buy other things, but a rogue approached her out of nowhere, with dirty mouth and dirty hands, saying don't talk to that hunter , let follow him, Wan Yuan couldn't bear this bullying, so she raised her hand and slapped her, the scoundrel also slapped her, the two wrestled together, the neighbors hurried to pull, after pulling away, the yamen servant also rushed over , and brought both of them into the government office.

Then came the news of Wan Yuan's suicide.

Aunt Liu said: "But in fact, she was fainted by the medicine and sent to Yu's residence."

Liang Shu looked at Yu Zhong coldly, Yu Zhong said tremblingly: "It's Yin Die, he got very close to my father seven or eight years ago, and my father obeyed him. It happened that my father was not in good health at that time, and Yin Die Just say that he has calculated that Wan Yuan's life is good, if we get married, my father can live a long life, she should marry my father, but my father didn't agree to it at the time!"

The common people secretly "spit" him, 70-year-old man and 17-year-old girl, you want to agree!

"But Yinchai insisted that if he wanted to continue his life, there was only one way. My father believed it in the end and gave him a large sum of money, which almost cost him half of his family fortune. Yinchai said that he also gave Master Li Quite a few."

Wan Yuan "died" in just one day.She was unconscious when she was sent to Yu Mansion. The doctor checked her pulse routinely, but it was diagnosed that she was pregnant with a child.Yu Cong was given a green hat before he got married, and he was very angry on the spot. Yu Zhong was also waiting to see Yin Die's jokes, but this old wizard told lies one after another, and his eyes were blind. Don't blink.

Yu Chong said: "He insisted that fate is not wrong. If Wanyuan can't do it, then the child in Wanyuan's womb will do. Regardless of whether it is a boy or a girl, just treat it as a child-in-law and raise it until it is 14 years old. Consummating the house, my father can live another 20 years without saying anything."

In addition, Yu Cong's body really felt much more comfortable on the night Wan Yuan entered the mansion, so he believed it again.

Wan Yuan was taken care of by Aunt Liu at the time. After she woke up, she begged her to report the news to her, but Aunt Liu knew in her heart that the officials in this city were in collusion with the Yu family, and Wan Gui was an unreliable twister. If he knew the truth, nine times out of ten he would go to Yu Mansion with a knife in his hand to ask for his daughter. Not only could he not save anyone, but he would also involve himself in it.

Aunt Liu regretted and said: "I didn't know that the Yu family only wanted children, and they thought they were going to lock up both mother and child, so I advised Wan girl to live in peace first, and I went out to help her take care, if there is that Orion news, let’s talk.”

Wan Yuan had nothing to do and was concerned about the child, so he could only agree first.She was locked up in a lonely small courtyard, saw few people, and was full of worries, so she was always sick, and the child was born prematurely before the full term, and she cried weakly and didn't even have a mouthful of mother's milk. When he drank it, he was taken away by the midwife.Wan Yuan was already dying at the time, but seeing that the child was about to be snatched away, he didn't know where the strength came from, so he rushed to snatch it, but was kicked by Yin Die at the door, causing him to vomit a mouthful of blood.

Aunt Liu hurriedly stood in the way, dragging him to the bed with her arms and arms, and wanted to call a doctor, but there was no one available in the yard except guards.There was not even a brazier in the cold winter, so Aunt Liu had no choice but to pick up some charcoal from her own house, but when she returned to Yufu, Wan Yuan was already dead.

Tong Ou stood aside and listened quietly, with no expression on his face, only those who were close could detect the bulging veins on the back of his hands.

Because of the charcoal, Aunt Liu was given a severe lesson for meddling in other people's business.At that time, Uncle Liu's leg was injured, and Liu Meng was not yet ten years old. She had no way to escape, and she couldn't worry about the poor child, so she swallowed everything back, and only used the little money left at home to sneak away. Give it to a servant who has a close relationship, and ask them not to leave Wanyuan's body in the wilderness.

"Don't worry, auntie." The servant whispered, "I still have to bury it. It just so happens that the grave is ready-made. If it is thrown outside and is dug out by wild dogs, there is no way to explain it."

Wan Yuan was buried just like that.

Aunt Liu continued to stay in Yufu to take care of the children.She hated the name "Shi Taisong" from the bottom of her heart, so she called her Xiao Hua, firstly because it was fresh and lively, and secondly, even if others heard that the girl's nickname was "Hua Cao", they wouldn't be blamed.

Xiaohua's health is not good and her personality is boring, but she grows well.Yu Cong came to visit her every now and then, with gray hair and freckles all over her face, sitting in the yard holding this girl who could be her great-grandson, Aunt Liu was horrified to see her.She had already discussed with her son that she wanted to find a chance to take Xiaohua and flee elsewhere. She thought that there were at least five or six years before she could slowly plan, but she never thought that Yu Cong would be sick again this winter, and even more so. There was only one breath left.

Yin Die didn't know whether he still held grudges against Wan Yuan, or he was used to disregarding human life, and with a light word of worship to the river god, he pinched the root of the newly sprouted flower.The backyard is more and more tightly guarded, even if Aunt Liu wants to take the risk of stealing people, Liu Meng proposes to dig up Wanyuan’s grave by himself, and then use a kite dummy to make the illusion that a female ghost is killing her, forcing Yu’s mansion to cancel the colorful festival .

Liu Meng said: "The ghost is indeed my disguise. Those kite clothes are in the cellar of my house."

There were a few other young men beside him, who heard this unbelievable story, and they all patted his arm and said in admiration, "Brother Meng, you are a hero!"
