I Wish to Ride the Wind

Shen Jiajia was shocked, her eyes brightened instantly, she seemed to think of something in an instant, and immediately looked at the direction where the voice came from.

A man jumped from the tree. This person is obviously tall, but when he falls, he is quite light and elegant, like a wild goose. He stood still on the ground, his red clothes swayed with the mountain wind, his face was like a bright moon, his eyes stopped on Shen Jiajia from a distance, and then a smile appeared on his lips.

Shen Jiajia's heart was suddenly relieved. Fortunately, it didn't turn into a bird again...

This person is Xie Chengfeng.

Feng Jia is a very winking person. Along the way, Xie Chengfeng's affection for Shen Jiajia has long since made his eyes hurt. At this moment, after a brief shock, he immediately greeted the other two Xie Dalang, who was dragging him to the ground. After tying up, go down the mountain first.

Xie Chengfeng walked up to Shen Jiajia very quickly, and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, it's alright." Then, he was going to hold her hand.

Shen Jiajia shook his hand away, "Why didn't you tell me you're fine, do you know that I thought..." As she spoke, her eyes were wet again.

Xie Chengfeng hurriedly said softly, "I know I was wrong, and I don't dare any more."

Frightened and wronged, Shen Jiajia threw herself into his arms, "Do you know that I don't want to live anymore!"

Xie Chengfeng hugged her tightly, and he felt so soft-hearted, "I know, I know. At that time, I just wanted to bring him to show up as soon as possible."

"Then why didn't you tell me?"

"You're still young, I'm afraid you don't have the scheming and show your legs."

Shen Jiajia was still not convinced, "Who do you look down on, you are just a few years older."

"My good lady, I know I'm wrong, and I don't dare to underestimate you again."

"Who is your wife, shameless."

Xie Chengfeng laughed sullenly, his chest vibrated, "Whoever said he would be buried with me is my wife."

Shen Jiajia blushed and pushed him away.

Xie Chengfeng took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, "Wipe your face. It's windy here, and you'll be carefully chapped by the mountain wind."

Shen Jiajia took the handkerchief and asked, "When did you come?"

"I've always been by your side."

Shen Jiajia's face-wiping action stopped, and her eyes were shining brightly at him. Turns out it wasn't a dream...

Xie Chengfeng really couldn't stand her gaze, and he always had the urge to do something. He quickly looked away, "Let's go, go down the mountain first." As he spoke, his tone gradually became serious, "We have to return to the capital as soon as possible."

There, his biological brother, needs to stand trial.

—

The group returned to the capital non-stop, Xie Dalang never spoke on the way. On the surface, Xie Chengfeng had a business-like attitude, but in his heart there was always a huge boulder pressing down on him. That was his own brother, his only sibling in this life. But this man committed a monstrous crime, and the crime cannot be punished! If it was said that he was saved by the blood of the royal family, Xie Chengfeng would only feel that it was unfair to the world, and even more sorry to Jiajia! But if it was really killed, Xie Chengfeng couldn't bear it in his heart. After all, he was his mother's own son. He had already died once, and if he died a second time, his mother would definitely be in pain!

In addition, every time Xie Chengfeng faced this brother, a trace of unspeakable guilt would fill his heart. If what Shi Wuniang stole was not her brother, but him...

No matter how tangled Xie Chengfeng's heart was, the case was so big that it was far beyond his ability to intervene. He and Shen Jiajia pressed people to the government office, handed in the summary of the case written by Shen Jiajia, and went home separately.

The twists and turns of the case were bizarre, and the governor was stunned. He is an old fox in the officialdom, and he knows that if this case is not handled well, his official career may be over, so he wrote a book overnight to test the meaning of the official family.

The officials were equally stunned.

It stands to reason that such a vicious person would be killed if he killed him. He had never met this nephew, and it was not like the nephew's relationship with Chengfeng. It is believed that Princess Yangchang is his sister, and he has always loved her. If he really killed her like this, he would inevitably be thrown at him.

Sure enough, the second day after the official family received the memorial, Princess Xinyang entered the palace to intercede. She felt that she owed too much to her eldest son, and at this time, she couldn't watch him die again, crying into tears in front of the official family.

The case quickly spread inside and outside the imperial court, and everyone was talking about it for a while. Many ministers wrote to ask for national law to deal with it, and some people quietly figured out what they wanted, suggesting that officials and families be generous outside the law. The views of the two factions are at odds, and officials are even more in a dilemma.

When all the dealers and pawns in the capital began to talk about this big news that caused a sensation in the world, Shen Jiajia was suddenly summoned by the Queen Mother.

Even Xie Chengfeng didn't know about this. He has spent most of his time at home with his mother Kaijie recently. Shen Jiajia entered the palace in a carriage accompanied by a servant. Until she stood on the bluestone floor tiles and looked at the magnificent palace, she still felt a little unreal.

Afterwards, the maid led her into the Baoci Palace. Shen Jiajia came in a hurry, and the waiter on the road only briefly mentioned the court etiquette. Shen Jiajia greeted the Queen Mother according to her own understanding, "The people's daughter sees the Queen Mother."

The queen mother saw that her manners were jerky, but she was neither humble nor arrogant, and her bearing was calm, so she nodded, and there was some appreciation in her exploratory eyes.

The Empress Dowager gestured to the people beside her, and the waiter raised his voice and said, "Give a seat."

"Thank you, Empress."

After Shen Jiajia sat down, the queen mother said, "Today, Aijia and Mrs. Shen have something to say about family affairs, you should step back."

The palace maids and servants all retired, leaving only Shen Jiajia and the queen mother in the room.

Shen Jiajia knows that it is not as simple as "speaking at ordinary times" today.

"The child Chengfeng talked to Aijia about you several times, and Aijia wanted to see you for a long time. Speaking of which, Aijia would like to thank you for your life-saving grace to Chengfeng."

Shen Jiajia got up quickly: "The queen mother's words are serious, Master Xie also has a life-saving grace for me."

"Sit down, don't be so restrained. You just treat me as an ordinary elder."

How could Shen Jiajia really treat her as an ordinary elder and sit down respectfully.

The queen mother then asked her hometown, her parents, what she usually does, etc., and she said a lot of everyday things. Shen Jiajia didn't hide it, and honestly explained it. When the queen mother heard that she often helped her father in handling cases, she disagreed, but she didn't show it on her face. Then asked her about her experience in Shimen County.

Regarding the facts of this case, the Queen Mother just listened to the official's brief narration, but she did not expect the actual process to be so thrilling.

After Shen Jiajia finished speaking, the Queen Mother praised a few words, and then sighed: "Looking at the inside and outside of the court, you must have a deep understanding of this case. The old lady has a question today. In your opinion, how should this case be?"

Shen Jiajia thought, here we come!

She naturally felt that Xie Dalang should be damned. But she also knew that although she solved the case and caught the person, she had absolutely no right to point fingers on the case, and the queen mother was not so confused that it was impossible to really ask her for her opinion on the trial of the case.

Shen Jiajia guessed that the purpose of the Queen Mother's words was probably to test her attitude towards Xie Dalang, and to test whether she could cooperate with the royal family to modify her confession.

Because, if the royal family really wants to protect Xie Dalang, changing his confession is the most effective way.

Shen Jiajia took a breath and looked confused: "Queen Mother, how should this case be, since you should ask the officials in charge of this case, the women really have no right to speak up."

"It's okay, there's no one left or right, it's just a small talk."

Shen Jiajia was helpless and had to say: "Yu Gong, this person should be killed. Yu Zi, he almost killed Xie Gongzi twice in a row, and the people also felt that this person was too dangerous to stay." She does not shy away from her relationship with Xie Chengfeng.

She hit the dead end of the queen mother at once, that is Xie Chengfeng. Yes, this grandson is her heart! The reason why I have seen her daughter cry many times, even if the queen mother is shaken, she did not open her mouth to plead with the official family, it is also because of this level of concern. Therefore, she has been hesitating about what to do with Xie Dalang.

The queen mother sighed, "How can Aijia not know what you said. It's just that Xinyang pleaded in front of Aijia several times... alas."

"If it's for the eldest princess, this person can't stay."

The queen mother was greatly surprised: "Why?"

"The eldest princess is eager to save her son. It is a mother's heart. Now she only sees Xie Dalang's life and death. The queen mother is also a loving mother. You might as well imagine what would happen if Xie Dalang died, and what would happen if he lived."

The queen mother's eyes moved.

If Dalang died, Xinyang would definitely be in grief for a short time, but after a long time, he could come out, just like twenty years ago.

What if Dalang survived? With Dalang's viciousness in killing his brothers, and his ruthlessness in killing people, will he be willing to be Xinyang's good son even if he is alive? Nine times out of ten it won't! You must know that it is difficult to change the nature of the country, and Dalang has suffered miserable since childhood, and he must hold grudges against his parents and relatives. He is alive, Xinyang must always remember the past when he sees him, feel guilty, and be more indulgent. And Chengfeng's child will be grumpy no matter how generous he is. After a long time, the mother and child will be separated, and the house will be restless. Is this any good for Xinyang?

In short, it's okay for Dalang to die. If he is alive, Xinyang will live in even more pain!

Moreover, it is necessary to take advantage of the safety of the wind!

So, what is the need for that person to stay!

The queen mother figured out this section, let out a long sigh, and sighed: "Aijia understands. Xinyang is for the sake of children, and Aijia also thinks of children."

Shen Jiajia was silent.

The queen mother looked at her carefully and suddenly asked, "Aren't you afraid that Xinyang will know what you said to me today?"

If Xinyang found out, not only would he not appreciate it, but he would also hold grudges.

Shen Jiajia thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid."

The girl's face was serious, and the queen mother was quite amused when she saw it, and she burst into a smile. The gloom that had been caused by Xie Dalang's affairs for several days also dissipated. The queen mother felt that the girl was smart and sharp, with a square personality, but she was young and not smooth enough. However, her old wife is surrounded by people all day long, but now she feels that Shen Jiajia has another kind of frankness and cuteness.

The next day, the official family came to visit the queen mother, and the queen mother stepped back and told him about Shen Jiajia.

"Aijia knew that she wanted to put Dalang to death, but Aijia has been persuaded by her."

The officials couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect this level."

"It's just that the authorities are obsessed with bystanders."

"Mother thinks she is worthy of the wind?"

"Chengfeng has gone through so many hardships, and this girl is a destiny. What we want as elders is nothing more than a safe and happy life for the younger generation. Why should we be that wicked person and ruin the marriage of the children."

The official nodded hurriedly, "That's the truth."

The official family had a good impression of the girl Shen Jiajia, because they were worried that his sister suspected that Shen Jiajia would contribute to the case, so they did not make a decision immediately, but waited for the court to discuss it again and again for more than half a month, and then it was "a last resort". The decree ordered two upright officials from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to try the case together with the governor of Kaifeng. However, the case was closed in two days, and Xie Dalang was sentenced to hang.

After the case was settled, Shen Jiajia successively received rewards from the government and the imperial court, as well as a generous gift from the eldest princess' residence.

The gift from the eldest princess' mansion was brought by Xie Chengfeng himself. Seeing that he looked a little haggard, Shen Jiajia asked, "Is the eldest princess alright?"

Xie Chengfeng shook his head and sighed, then his eyes were a little confused.

Shen Jiajia asked, "Do you think your brother shouldn't die?"

"No, he killed so many people, so it's not a pity to die. I just occasionally think, if it was me who was taken away..."

"Chengfeng." Shen Jiajia held his hand, which made the latter's heart skip a beat and couldn't help holding her back. Shen Jiajia said, "Do you remember that the year before last, there was a scoundrel kid who bullied others and killed a scholar in the brothel, causing a lot of trouble in the city?"

"Remember, I know that person."

"That dandy boy grew up in brocade clothes and jade food, and who abused him and raped him? But he was also evil and not good, but a few words of jealousy, saying that killing people would kill people. It can be seen that people have different natures, and different people are in the same situation. Depending on the environment, the results are not the same. Your nature is pure and kind, if you encounter something like Xie Dalang, I am afraid that you will become a little pitiful, and I don’t know where to hide, waiting for me to rescue it.”

Xie Chengfeng's dignified seven-footed man was described as a little pitiful, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a while. He put her hands behind her back, stood behind her and held one hand, freeing one hand to flick her earlobe, "Squirrel, you say Who is the poor little one."

Shen Jiajia couldn't help shaking when she was played, "Oh stop, I am, I'm poor, can't I?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, poor little one, you're right, I'm waiting for you to rescue me."

—

The grief of the eldest princess lasted for about a month. After a month, every time the eldest princess walked in the palace, the queen mother always "just happened" to summon the wife, and the wife always "just happened" with a milk baby at home. She is always as beautiful as snow balls, and the queen mother always draws cakes for the eldest princess at the right time.

"Chengfeng has also grown, and getting married is only a matter of one or two years. When he gets married, you will be a grandmother. By then, there will be a lot of grandchildren, and you will have a headache."

The eldest princess was so fascinated. She really needs this "headache", especially after the second death of her eldest son. So the eldest princess has a new goal, and she is full of vigor to start her son's marriage.

The Shen family also had to make a lot of preparations. Shen Jiajia wanted to make her own wedding dress, while Shen Zhukuai and Mrs. Zhu wanted to prepare a dowry for her. Because of solving such a shocking case, Shen Jiajia has received a lot of rewards and gifts, plus what Shen Zhaokuai and his wife have prepared over the years, if they marry an ordinary wealthy family, it is more than enough, but compared to the family of the eldest princess. , this idea of ​​dowry seems thin.

Shen Zhukuai was a little worried, and his daughter was causing trouble for him. He insisted on taking part of the reward and went to buy a large yard for their couple next to the government office.

"You child! This dowry is not enough, and you want to spend money indiscriminately? My mother and I live well, what big yard do you want?"

Shen Jiajia plausibly said: "It's not enough to buy it, and it's not enough to not buy it. Since that's the case, it's better to buy it. At least you and your mother can live comfortably, so I can rest assured."

Shen Chukuai sighed and said: "How can I not know your filial piety, but the dowry is too small, and it is inevitable that people will look down upon you when you go to your in-law's house. Your mother and I are just you as a child. We grew up in the palm of our hand, how can we look at you? be bullied."

"Father, mother, don't worry, if I don't have a good time, I will reconcile and go back to the yamen to settle the case. The world is big, even if the capital can't hold me, I can go elsewhere. With my intelligence, I can't eat anywhere. You won't be angry with them."

Madam Zhu interrupted her quickly, "Jing nonsense, is Heli just kidding?"

Shen Chakuai believed that his daughter could really do such a thing.

Such a girl is different from other daughters. Shen Zhukuai felt that his daughter was a little out of line and seemed inappropriate, but he couldn't help being faintly proud of such a daughter.

In addition to making wedding dresses, Shen Jiajia can often go to the yamen to walk. At this time, Xie Chengfeng will follow her in nine out of ten. Together, the two have solved many cases and gradually became famous in the capital. When the queen mother heard about it, she felt a little nonsense, and hinted to the eldest princess Xinyang several times, but the eldest princess was full of three years of holding the two, and did not want to set rules in front of her future daughter-in-law. The queen mother can only comfort herself, there is no reason for everything to go well in this world.

Finally, after six months of preparation, their wedding began.

The grandeur of this wedding was still talked about a few years later. However, Shen Jiajia wasn't very impressed by this. Her only feeling was that she was tired and her neck was about to break.

The phoenix crown that weighed six pounds was being tossed around, and it was a miracle that she was able to breathe after a busy day.

So as soon as she entered the wedding room, she urged her wife, "please ask the groom to come over quickly."

Madam Xi covered her mouth and joked, "Oh, it's the first time I've seen such a hurrying bride." So she exited with a smile, found Xie Chengfeng, pulled him to a corner, and said in a low voice with a smile.

Xie Chengfeng was dealing with the guests. Hearing this, he ignored the guests and ran to the backyard.

He entered the door in a hurry, picked up the hijab and blasted everyone else out of the wedding room, turned and smiled at Shen Jiajia, "Jiajia, you are so beautiful today."

Shen Jiajia was also beautiful in the past, but the beauty in the past was like a handful of Qinghong, which was refreshing. The beauty of today is like the radiance of the sun, bright and moving, dazzling.

"You look good today, too," Shen Jiajia's eyes flashed with surprise, and then said, "Come on, help me pick this up."

Xie Chengfeng quickly stepped forward, helped her take off the phoenix crown, put it aside, and asked warmly, "Are you tired?"

"Ok."

He pulled her into his arms and massaged the back of her neck with one hand.

Shen Jiajia pressed her face to his chest, listening to the sound of his heart beating, it seemed a little fast.

After a long while, Xie Chengfeng suddenly smiled and said, "Jiajia, I finally married you."

"Hmm." Shen Jiajia enjoyed his massage, playing with the strands of hair hanging down on his chest boredly.

Xie Chengfeng said again: "Jiajia, there is a question I have always wanted to ask. Why are you willing to marry me?"

Shen Jiajia is a little strange: "Why don't I marry you?"

"I'm not satisfied with this answer." Xie Chengfeng said, as if he was worried, and added, "And I don't want to hear answers such as promises and marriage when I'm old."

Shen Jiajia held his hair in thought. He boldly and frankly expressed his love in front of her several times, and she seemed, as if, did not express her love to him?

She sighed leisurely and asked, "Do you want to hear the truth?"

Xie Chengfeng's heart skipped a beat, and he wrapped her arms tightly involuntarily, "Think, I want to hear the truth." There was a hint of apprehension in his tone.

"You're the most beautiful person I've ever met."

"That's it?" A little disappointed.

"And the kindest person I've ever met."

"Jiajia..." Suddenly moved.

"It's also the person who understands me the most." Shen Jiajia said here, and smiled, "Is there any reason not to be fascinated by you."

"Jiajia." Xie Chengfeng called her again, and his voice became low and hoarse.

It was the first time in her life that Shen Jiajia said such blatant words. At this moment, her heart beat faster and she didn't dare to look at him. She asked in a low voice, "Are you satisfied with this answer?"

"Satisfied, very satisfied." Xie Chengfeng lowered his head, sniffed her breath lightly, and lightened the hand that massaged the back of her neck, rubbing slowly instead.

"Jiajia, I will satisfy you tonight too."

"…"
