Suifang

Chapter 28 Bone and Blood

"Why tomorrow night?"

Back on Taibai Lake, Yu Fang asked puzzledly.

Xia Suijin pursed her lips and smiled, and asked, "Under the Taohuawu tree, why didn't you confess to me?"

"I saw that you didn't mean to show up."

"Tsk, you've really become smarter. Let me ask you again, Qiu Fei is Chai Longjin, King of Dayue. How did you two know each other?"

"I only know that Wuyou was brought to You Bandit Island by Brother Qiu, and I don't know anything else."

"Who is that Big Brother Qiu?"

"It's the owner of Bandit Island and the leader of the pirate group."

"I'm asking, what kind of person is Boss Qiu, for example, what kind of personality is he, whether he is good or bad."

Yu Fang said: "I've never seen anyone more powerful than Boss Qiu."

"Oh? How powerful?"

"Martial arts are powerful, and the brain is better than mine."

"……that's it?"

But Yu Fang shook her head slowly, with a serious expression on her face, which was rarely seen.He said:

"Sixteen years ago, a bandit island sank, and there was less and less land available for living. At that time, Boss Qiu was only 16 years old. He led a pirate group of only a dozen people to sneak into Fuzhou Mountain and wiped out his family overnight."

Xia Suijin has heard that the Fuzhou Mountain clan suffered a catastrophe, and the two survivors were Fu Tanzhou, the owner of Qianfu Villa, and Shen Zhuang, a lady from the villa.However, the reason for the extermination of the clan was actually this, he really didn't expect it.

"You Bandit Island has a deep blood feud with Qianfu Villa. No wonder you refused to tell where you came from. It turned out that you were afraid that the people from Qianfu Villa would chase you down."

Only then did Xia Suijin understand.

At this time, he heard Yu Fang say again:

"Father once commented on Big Brother Qiu like this. He has the emperor's mind, but he has no virtue of a benevolent monarch. It is also good and evil, which is rare in the world."

he was stunned

"The pirate group has Su Yin, Wu has Mei Shuying, and Qiu Fengyue has both."

Then, Yu Fang stared into his eyes, sparks burst out of the clear eyes, and said slowly:

"You are in the same category as Qiu Fengyue, but you are not as good as him."

He smiled narrowly: "Aren't you afraid that I'll be jealous if you praise him so much?"

Yu Fang immediately became nervous, blinking her eyes: "I'm just, just worried that something will happen to you."

"Okay! I know you're in trouble, so you don't need to say anything more. If there's a chance, I'd like to meet that boss Qiu."

Yu Fang still had a calm face, her flickering eyes seemed to be hiding a lot of thoughts.

Xia Suijin didn't puncture her, and lay down on the bed with the quilt covering her face.He thought miscellaneously in his heart, maybe, from the very beginning, he was wrong.You Bandit Island has set up a big game, so big that the foundation of the Huan Dynasty is in jeopardy.

Is the person who set up the situation Qiu Fei or Qiu Fengyue?

It was cloudy and rainy in the early morning, but Xia Suijin was in high spirits, holding an umbrella and inviting Yu Fang with great interest:

"Our Mo Shi Mo Wang bell has not been hung on the marriage tree, now go? I haven't asked you yet, how do you know that copper bell is called 'Mo Shi Mo Wang'."

The two held an umbrella together, and the pedestrians gradually thinned out in the misty rain.

Yu Fang said: "There is Canglang Cliff in Fuzhou Mountain, and there is also a marriage tree on the cliff, and it is older than Jiang's family."

"There are also copper bells hanging on the tree?"

"Hanging the 'Never Lost, Never Forgotten' bell on Qixi Festival is the most effective. Parents once hung a pair, and they have been successful so far."

"Sounds good. Maybe the Marriage Tree in Taohuawu is imitated from Canglangya."

Walking to the gate of Taohuawu, I met Shen Linglong walking slowly holding a paper umbrella with Hongmei Yingxue. Behind the umbrella was the river bank with her head hanging down.

It happened that he had something to ask Jiang An, so he went forward and said:

"Second Young Master Jiang."

Jiang An raised his head in disgust, his eyes were not friendly: "Are you Prince Ren?"

It really was exposed.

"This... yes, that's right, I am Xia Suijin, Prince Ren."

"fraud!"

"Hee hee, your lord has a lot, don't worry about me, a villain. Besides, I don't covet anything about the Jiang family, so you don't have to worry about it."

When Yu Fang held the umbrella, she tilted the umbrella towards Xia Suijin, and his shoulders got wet.Jiang An looked at it for a while, then sneered suddenly, and said:

"Are all your princes broken sleeves?"

Xia Suijin was thinking about how to speak, but when he asked him, he was suddenly at a loss: "What do you mean?"

Jiang An said: "You broke your sleeves with Yu Fang, and the Ninth Prince broke your sleeves with Qiu Fengyue on Youbandit Island. That's what it means."

Then he turned his face away and spit out two words:

"nausea"

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Shen Linglong stepped on Jiang An's calf and reprimanded:

"What does the broken sleeve have to do with you? Do you want to talk too much?!"

Jiang An immediately faltered, covered his mouth and nodded: "Don't do my business, I won't talk."

Xia Suijin murmured: "You can't talk nonsense. The Ninth Prince is different from me. He has a son under his knees. He is four years old this year. He can run, jump and call 'Uncle Huang'. How can he be a broken sleeve?"

"What I saw with my own eyes, can it be true? - When I went out to sea with His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince to hunt for treasure, I was robbed by pirates to Fuzhou Mountain. There was my uncle on Fuzhou Mountain, and those pirates didn't dare to tie me up. Once I Fishing with my uncle, I saw the Ninth Prince and Qiu Fengyue climbed up the Canglang Cliff, praying with a copper bell. What kind of wishes can I pray under the marriage tree, not just staying together forever and growing old forever."

Really shocking!

It's hard to imagine that the Ninth Prince's indifferent personality could still fall in love with someone, and that person is also a pirate leader.

The outline of the "game" emerged in Xia Suijin's mind, filling it up one by one, gradually approaching the reality.

When Mrs. Jiang saw Jiang An coming back, she kept wiping away her tears with a handkerchief.

"It's good to come back. You and Xiao Liu are both mother's darlings. Mother has no intention of favoring one over the other. Because your brother has been suffering since he was a child, mother cares more about your brother. Now... mother knows it is wrong. My son has been wronged. .”

Mrs. Jiang was crying, but Master Jiang's expression was not very good. He ordered the kitchen to burn the food and said:

"Let's stay for dinner. You've been outside for a whole night, and you'll have a bowl of ginger soup when you go back to your room, so you don't catch the wind and cold."

As the saying goes, a crying child gets milk.Jiang An's fuss was immediately taken seriously.

Mrs. Jiang looked at Shen Linglong like she was looking at her own daughter. During the dinner, she kept adding food to her, asking "Is the girl married?" and so on.

Sitting next to Master Jiang, Jiang An looked flattered, which made Xia Suijin laugh.

When the whole family was enjoying themselves, Chu Chu hurried in and said:

"Master and Madam—the young master is vomiting blood!!"

……

The doctor said:

"Eldest Young Master has two types of poison in his body, one alone is not fatal, but mixing them together...sorry, I can't do anything about it."

Mrs. Jiang clutched her chest and passed out on the spot.

Xia Suijin stood outside the door, listening to Master Jiang questioning Chuchu.Chu Chu cried and cried, pointing at Jiang An and cursing:

"It's the second young master! It must be him!——You didn't choose him as the head of the family, but the eldest young master, so he held a grudge. Don't you know that in Taohuawu, Jiang An is the one who hates the youngest young master most. Young Master's troubles, Eldest Young Master can bear it as long as he can, but he became more and more arrogant, and now he dares to poison you!"

Crying and begging Master Jiang to be the master of Jiang An.

Xia Suijin couldn't help interjecting: "The most urgent thing is to save people."

At this time, Jiang Liu's face was blue and black, and he was breathing in but not out, which was clearly about to die.

Chu Chu identified Jiang An as the murderer, Master Jiang half-believed, at some point Mrs. Jiang walked over with the support of the maids, suddenly she pushed away the maids, threw herself to kneel in front of Jiang An, grabbed Jiang An's clothes, and cried:

"Xiao Liu is your own brother, how can you bear it?! If you want to hate, you can hate me, or poison me to death. I just ask you to let my child go."

Jiang An suddenly turned pale, and stared at Mrs. Jiang in disbelief. He froze for a long time before shaking his lips, and said, "You, you... doubt, doubt me?"

"Please let my little Liu go..."

Mrs. Jiang hit her forehead hard on the stone slab, bleeding out quickly.

Master Jiang's expression became more serious, and he said, "Put the second young master in the ancestral hall, and don't let him out without order."

Xia Suijin was dumbfounded, did he think Jiang An was the murderer?He tugged at the sleeve of the servant girl beside him and asked:

"Where is Qiu Fei?"

Since entering Taohuawu, I haven't seen Qiu Fei.

Maid: "Master Qiu went out early in the morning and hasn't returned yet."

Jiang Liu's life is in danger, and there is no way to be anxious.While everyone was in a panic, he found a hidden corner, summoned the hidden guards, and asked:

"Who poisoned it?"

The dark guard said, "Mrs. Jiang."

If it was Mrs. Jiang who poisoned without anyone noticing, but two kinds of poison, no matter how you think about it, it would be superfluous.

"One more thing, who is the young man I met on Duantian Cliff?"

This question was asked before.The secret guard replied: Chai Longjin, the lord of the Dayue Kingdom, and Qiu Fei, a guest of the Jiang family's lord.He remembers it well.

This time he still asked.The face of the dark guard is hidden behind the hood, his eyes are dull and unfocused, it seems that Xia Suijin's words are difficult to understand, "it" reacted for a long time before making a grinding sound from its throat, and replied:

"Chai Longjin, the lord of the Dayue Kingdom, and Qiu Fei, a guest of the Jiang family's lord."

Xia Suijin couldn't help laughing, this smile looked a bit unspeakably miserable.He waved his hand and said:

"You go down."

Perhaps, it was fake from the beginning.

Jiang Liu will not die, but the decline of the Jiang family is an established situation.

He rubbed his lame leg, and took out the brass bell from his sleeve.In fact, hanging the copper bell is just a pretense, and I came to Taohuawu just to see Jiangliu.

Jiang Liu's legs were disabled, and the murderer was Mrs. Jiang; his legs were also broken by his biological mother, so he developed a feeling of sympathy for Jiang Liu, and when he saw Jiang Liu walking like an ordinary person, he would feel happy, It's like seeing yourself become normal.

Now something happened to Jiang Liu.

He saw Jiang Liu lying there dying, and for some reason, he suddenly had an illusion in his heart that he would end up in the same way.

"Don't forget, it's a pity...Fang Lang, it seems that this copper bell can't be hung up."

Throwing it casually, the copper bell fell into the bushes and disappeared together with the fluttering red silk.

At night, Mrs. Jiang knelt in front of the Buddha and recited devoutly. The candlelight was flickering, and her gentle and handsome face was bathed in the soft yellow candlelight. She looked solemn and undisturbed.

Xia Suijin hid behind a green lantern, thinking of the concubine mother's expression of piousness and concentration when she knelt on the futon and knocked on the wooden fish.Perhaps it was because the concubine mother was from Youbandit Island, and Madam Jiang was so similar, although he couldn't figure out what concubine mother was thinking, but from Madam Jiang, he finally guessed it.

The thoughts and thoughts in the heart are called;
