Crimson Pearl Tears in a Dream of Red Mansions
Chapter 097
Just when Daiyu was bewildered by Yinzhen's sudden hug, when she suddenly heard Yinzhen's sincere, affectionate and domineering words, she felt warm in her heart, and burst into tears again.Seeing Daiyu crying, Yinzhen quickly wiped away the tears for Daiyu and said, "Yu'er, don't cry. When you cry, my heart will be agitated." After hearing this, Daiyu couldn't help beating her little hands Holding Yinzhen's chest, he still said angrily: "Then you have to promise me first, you are not allowed to look at other women in the future, not even a glance, I want you to have only me in your heart!"
Hearing the jealous and domineering and selfish words from the jade girl in her arms, Yinzhen's heart felt sweet. It turned out that Yu'er was so important to herself. Thinking of this, Yinzhen couldn't help Feeling hugged Daiyu even more tightly, he swore that in this life, even if he sacrificed everything, he would protect Yu'er's safety, and never repeat the tragedy of Huang Ama and Huang Erniang again, yes, even if he sacrificed everything Everything, he doesn't care about being infamous for the ages alone, as long as the beauty in his arms is safe and happy.
"A generation is a couple in a lifetime, lovesickness looks at each other and also goes on a blind date." Yinzhen spit out this sentence from his mouth that he promised Daiyu his whole life. "Fourth Brother..." After hearing these words, Daiyu couldn't help looking at Yinzhen's handsome and mature face, but seeing the firmness in those eyes, Daiyu knew that Yinzhen would not lie to her, Unknowingly moved, he wrapped his arms around Yinzhen's waist, showing a sweet smile, a pair of beautiful eyes engulfed Yinzhen's heart like autumn waves, and opened his mouth lightly, saying: "Fourth brother, I believe in you!"
The lotus wind secretly sends incense, and the drunken people want to get drunk. Before they know it, it is already a branch on the moon, and the stars are twinkling.At this time, a servant girl had already come to report: "Return to Princess Chenyu, Sibeile, it's time to eat." Daiyu Yinzhen listened and said: "Understood, you can step back." Let's go to the dining room together.
In Li Wei's mansion, there are only three masters and sons: Li Wei, his wife Yinglian, and his mother-in-law Zhenfeng, and there are only two or thirty servants, so there is no distinction between male and female seats at meals, only now Daiyu Yinzhen and others When people came, Li Wei couldn't be negligent, so he ordered Yinglian to set up separate seats for men and women. Knowing the reason, Yinglian only agreed, and set Yinzhen and Yinxiang's table in the outer hall. The table was set in the inner room, and Li Wei and I just stood and waited on Daiyu Yinzhen and others.
Seeing this, Daiyu frowned slightly, because she said: "Don't be so troublesome, just set the seats for me and my sister with the fourth brother and the thirteenth brother, so as not to disturb the tranquility of your family's meal!" After hearing this, Lian hurriedly said, "How can this be done?" Daiyu said, "I will do it if I say so. Go and tell Li Wei that it's what I mean. Let's see if he dares to listen!" Seeing this, Miaoyu , also said with a faint smile: "You just do what my sister says, don't look at my sister's frail appearance, she has such a temper that even Fourth Master is afraid of!"
Daiyu's face turned red when she heard the words, because she was angry with Miaoyu and said: "Sister just teases me, but I don't believe that Brother Thirteen doesn't listen to you!" Miaoyu saw that Daiyu turned the conversation to her own On the body, his face blushed, and he refused to say another word.
After eating, Daiyu wanted to go back to her room to rest, but at this moment, a dart flashed by, but it was fixed on a pillar beside her, with a note on it, which read: Write: "Tomorrow at Chen's hour, go to Zhangjia Village in the suburbs."
"Yu'er, what happened?" When Daiyu was holding the note on the dart in a daze, she saw Yinzhen flying over with lightness kung fu.Seeing the note in Daiyu's hand again, she frowned and asked, "What is this?"
"I don't know. Just now I was about to go back to my room to rest, when suddenly this thing was nailed to the pillar beside me." After speaking, he pointed to the obvious concave hole on the lacquered pillar, and then said "By the way, fourth brother, it's so late, why are you here?" Yinzhen said, "Just now I saw a black shadow flash past. I was afraid you were in trouble, so I came here to take a look." Daiyu listened, Unconsciously, a warm feeling surged up in my heart, and said: "I'm fine, fourth brother should rest early."
"I see." Yinzhen agreed, but he was not in a hurry to leave. He just glanced at Daiyu and said worriedly: "Yu'er, will you go tomorrow? Zhangjia Village in the suburbs." Daiyu heard the words, Unknowingly sighed: "Fourth brother, you always know me so well." Hearing this, Yinzhen frowned, and said: "Yu'er, it's better not to go, maybe this is a trap set by the enemy Maybe."
Daiyu heard the words, but looked at Yinzhen firmly, and said: "'If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch tiger cubs', not to mention that no outsiders know about our departure from Beijing, I believe it will be fine. Besides Now, if this is really a trap set by the enemy early in the morning, we can't escape no matter what, why don't we go deep into the tiger's den and lift everything to the surface of the water, so that we can cut through the mess quickly, right?"
After hearing this, Yinzhen knew that what Daiyu said was true, but he was worried after all, so he said: "Tomorrow Shisan and I will go to Xue Biao's place with Li Wei. We have some things to do, so we can't go with you. , but you can’t go alone, after all, you’d better go with Miaoyu, more than two people will take care of me, and I’ll be more at ease.” Hearing this, Daiyu said, “Okay, I’ll listen to you. In fact, fourth brother, you too Don't worry, with my martial arts, few people in Jianghu can match me, how can ordinary people hurt me." In fact, what Daiyu didn't say was that when Miaoyu came down to the mortal world two years ago, her previous life The magic power of being a concubine also recovered along with the memory of her previous life, so unless it was a magic weapon of a god, nothing in the world could hurt her in the slightest.
Yinzhen nodded, gave Daiyu a few more instructions, and went back to his room to rest, but the inexplicable uneasiness in his heart was hard to get rid of, and Yinzhen couldn't sleep peacefully, so he had to fall asleep indiscriminately. do not mention.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, Daiyu asked Yinglian, "Yinglian, do you know the Zhangjia Village in the suburbs?" Yinglian heard this, she felt a little strange and said, "Why did the princess suddenly ask this? " Then he said: "But I'm sorry to say something, if the princess is fine, it's better not to go to that Zhangjia village." Hearing this, Daiyu was not curious, because she asked, "Why do you say that? Is it possible? This family village is still a forbidden place?"
Yinglian said: "It's not much different to say that it's a forbidden area. The princess also knows that Lingnan has always been an uncivilized land. It was not until the Ming Dynasty, especially after Zheng He's voyages, that the ports were gradually opened for trade. But I don't know why, but this Zhangjia Village was left out alone, and because of this, people in Zhangjia Village have always lived an isolated life. Whenever strangers approached, they would resist with arrow poison. Therefore, over time, Zhangjia Village except People in this village will no longer be approached by outsiders."
Daiyu thought about Yinglian's words, and knew that the person who wrote this note was probably a trap set by the enemy, but it could not be ruled out that it was a message from one of her own people.Looking carefully at the note again, Daiyu found that the words on the note were two points similar to her father's handwriting, she couldn't help feeling suspicious, could it be that her father secretly sent someone to inform her?But I didn't receive the letter from Feige from my father.
Even though she thought so, Daiyu didn't hesitate at all, after only telling Yinglian a few words, she led Xiao Yueyan and Miaoyu to the direction of Zhangjia Village in the suburbs.
"Sister, this place is really a backcountry, extremely desolate, do you really think it's necessary for us to come here?" Miaoyu looked at everything in front of her, clearly autumn had not yet arrived, but the area around Zhangjia village was already desolate and desolate. It was really hard to believe that they were in southern Fujian, a place that was extremely hot and unbearable.
"Help, help..." Just as Daiyu was about to answer Miaoyu's question, there was a faint cry for help, and the voice seemed to be an old woman over sixty years old. "Let's go over and have a look." Someone called for help, but Daiyu couldn't just watch and die.Miaoyu nodded, anyway, this place is too weird, Miaoyu is also looking for someone to find out.
Following the direction of the sound, before Daiyu and the others walked twenty steps, they saw a wrinkled old woman with gray hair sitting on the ground, but one foot was outside, the ankle was a little bruised, and the ground was still green. There are little blood stains.When Daiyu saw it, she knew that the old woman must have been bitten by some kind of poison, so she hurried over to take the old woman's pulse for diagnosis and treatment.
When the old woman saw Daiyu and the others, she wiped her eyes with her cuff vigorously, and said, "Girls, you must be fairy daughters who came down from the sky. Hurry up, save my old lady. My old lady still has something left." A little grandson needs to be raised by the old woman." Seeing that the old woman said something funny, Xiao Yueyan couldn't help but chuckle and said: "Old woman, just don't worry, with our girl here, you will be fine." Xiao Yueyan said in the voice As soon as she landed, she heard Daiyu say: "The old lady is fine, she was just bitten by the five-step snake. I happen to have the 'Qinglu Pill' which can detoxify all kinds of snake venom. Just take one pill. , This is what the second senior brother specially brought me for self-defense, I didn't expect it to be really used today."
After saying that, Daiyu took out the Qinglu pill from her body, took out one pill and gave it to the old woman.At this time, Miaoyu asked the old woman, "Old woman, it's not autumn yet, why does this place look so desolate?" The old woman listened, and took a look at Daiyu and others, because she asked: " Are the girls from other places?" Miaoyu nodded upon hearing this.
The old woman heard this, and then said: "Sure enough, I see that the girls don't look like us here, even the accent is different." After that, she said: "My old woman is a villager in Zhangjia Village nearby. The reason why Jiacun is called Zhangjiacun is that every household in this village is named Zhang. My wife is the wife of the elder in this village, and people in the village call me Mama Zhang. Since my old man passed away, only Next, I live with one of my grandsons. Although our place was not civilized before, we farmed by ourselves. Every family has ample food and clothing, and our days are peaceful. Although it is not as prosperous as outside, it is also like a paradise, and it has never happened. What happened to the chickens and dogs. Until some things came out, people from other places often came to harass us, even local officials came here from time to time. We couldn't bear it, so we had to stand up and resist, but the land here turned It became barren and could no longer grow any crops, so within four or five miles, it was all such a desolate scene."
Xiao Yueyan heard the words, because she asked: "Mother Zhang, since this is the case, why don't you just get in touch with people outside? Although the world is complicated and people's hearts are unpredictable, there are still many good people and few bad people in this world. Sincere friendship, there must be many people who are willing to help you reorganize your homeland, and you can have more ways, so you don't have to work so hard in the future."
Mother Zhang sighed, and said: "People in our village are not very good at dealing with outsiders. Besides, people in our village have lived here for more than 300 years. I really don't want outsiders to disturb our cleanliness. Yes. So we spread rumors outside, that whenever an outsider comes, we will shoot that person with arrow poison, so there has always been no outsider here, of course, until after that happened." After saying that, he remained silent. said.
Daiyu saw that Zhang's mother was a little secretive every time she spoke, it seemed that there were some things she didn't want them to know, but Daiyu also guessed that Zhang's mother might be on guard against them, after all, everyone has something that belongs to them. It's secret, so I won't ask any more questions.At this time, Miaoyu suddenly said: "Mother Zhang, we have been traveling all the way, and our throat is a little dry. I wonder if we can come to your village to beg for saliva." He said: "Okay. Although our village has never allowed outsiders to enter, but you saved my life, I will make an exception, but you should leave here after drinking the water. This is not the place you should come to."
When Daiyu and the others heard this, they were suspicious in their hearts, but they didn't show it on their faces, they just smiled lightly and said, "It's natural."
Following that mother into the village, Daiyu found that although the village seemed a bit desolate for some reason, it was hard to imagine that this was an uncivilized land, because the people here were not as described in the book. Tyrannical, unreasonable, even disregarding human life like a savage.On the contrary, the people here are very simple and kind. Although there is always a trace of wariness in their eyes when they see them coming, they are still very friendly.
After drinking the water, Daiyu and the others were about to leave when they heard a somewhat familiar voice. Daiyu turned her head and found that the person was none other than Lin Jiezhi. "Brother Jiezhi, why are you here?" Daiyu was a little surprised, she never expected to meet Lin Jiezhi here. "Jiezhi has met the eldest girl, the second girl, and Yueyan girl." Lin Jiezhi bowed to Daiyu and the others, and then explained with a smile: "Actually, this is Jiezhi's hometown. My original surname is Zhang, and my first name is Hua, Cao Zizhi, because he received the master's great kindness and could not repay it, so he changed his name to Lin Jiezhi and worked for him by his side. Now it is heard that the girl, the fourth master and the thirteenth master are coming to Fujian, the master I was afraid that something might happen to the girls, so I ordered me to follow and protect them secretly, and besides, I may not have been back to my hometown for a long time, so I might as well take this opportunity to come back and have a look."
When Daiyu heard this, she was surprised and said, "I never thought that Jiezhi's elder brother would be from this village." Lin Jiezhi smiled lightly when he heard this.At this moment, a villager came over and asked, "Ah Hua, do you recognize these girls?" Lin Jiezhi heard this, and said with a smile, "Uncle, these girls are the young ladies of Mr. Lin's residence. "The villager heard the words, the defensiveness in his eyes gradually disappeared, and he said: "It turns out that it is the young lady of Mr. Lin's house. We were really rude just now." Then he sighed: "Mr. Da En, if it weren't for the village's regulations, you are not allowed to leave the village without authorization, we would never have let Ah Hua go with Master Lin alone, and we must have followed to repay Master Lin's great kindness .”
Hearing this, Daiyu was curious, wondering what her father had done to make these villagers very grateful, but now was not the time to pursue these issues, so Daiyu asked Lin Jiezhi: "Brother Jie, what happened last night? Was that note from you? I can see that the handwriting is somewhat similar to Daddy's."
Lin Jiezhi nodded, and said: "Exactly, I came here looking for the girl, but I have something important to say to her, but Li Wei's residence is extremely inconvenient, so I used a note to lead the girl here." When Daiyu heard this, she couldn't help but feel serious, because she asked: "But what is it that makes Brother Jie not make up his mind?"
Lin Jiezhi said: "It's not that I can't make up my mind, it's just that the master said that this matter must be told to the girl, but only the girl and the elder girl can know." Xiao Yueyan said after hearing this: " Girl, if that's the case, I will go out for a walk, and I will come back after you finish speaking." As soon as the words finished, Xiao Yueyan got up and went out.Seeing this, Daiyu nodded unconsciously. To be honest, although Xiao Yueyan had never done anything outrageous by her side, Daiyu still had to be more cautious. After all, Xiaoyueyan Yan's life experience is complicated, and she has something to do with Tiandihui. Seeing her behavior like this now, she can let go of the heart that has been hanging for a long time.
"Did the unknown girl ever hear that Mr. Li Guangdi has a treasure map?" After Xiao Yueyan left, Lin Jiezhi asked.Daiyu nodded, and said: "I heard that I have heard of it, so what?" Lin Jiezhi heard it, and said: "Actually, the person who holds the treasure map is not Mr. Li Guangdi, but Master Li. And that treasure is nothing but the talisman that can mobilize the troops of the Eight Banners—Crimson Pearl!"
Lin Jiezhi's words were like a bomb dropped into the lake, which shocked both Daiyu and Miaoyu, never expecting it to be like this.After a while, the two finally came to their senses, only to hear Lin Jiezhi continue: "The master inherited the position of patriarch, and at the same time inherited the Jade Dragon, Golden Phoenix Order and Crimson Pearl, which symbolized the power of the Eight Banners General Banner. They are pregnant with the second girl. Since the wife was pregnant with the second girl, the master and the wife have dreamed of a plant of crimson bead fairy grass at the same time, and the crimson bead fairy grass is said to be you, the second girl! Later, the girl was born, but there was indeed a plant on her chest. A bright red bead like blood, Buddhists call it Zhi Zhu. The master knew from then on that the girl had to shoulder the mission since birth, so he decided to find a secret place to hide the crimson bead, and then painted He made a treasure map that only the descendants of the Lin family could understand, and after the girl was old enough, he handed over the treasure map to the girl, and asked the girl to retrieve the crimson pearl by herself, but what was unexpected was that the Lin family An accidental theft, but lost the trace of this treasure map..."
What happened next, Daiyu and Miaoyu were able to guess a thing or two, so they asked again: "It is said that the fourth brother was assassinated because of Jiangzhu, I just don't understand, since this treasure map It has been lost, and it is a treasure map that can only be understood by the descendants of the Lin family, so how can you guess that the crimson pearl is in the fourth brother's house?" Lin Jiezhi smiled lightly when he heard the words, and said: "This What is so difficult to understand, there are many things in this world that go without wind and waves!"
When Daiyu heard this, she understood, it seems that someone must have secretly framed the fourth brother, this crimson bead is just a prelude, the key is that the treasure is in the Sibeile Mansion, this is extremely important.Thinking of this, Daiyu felt cold in her heart, the fourth brother will be the one who will occupy that position in the future, and she will definitely not be the queen behind him, she is Daiyu, the unique Daiyu in the world, She is a woman who wants to stand side by side with the fourth brother, so she should not rely on the protection of the fourth brother. On the contrary, if someone tries to get the fourth brother's idea, no matter who he is, she will definitely get rid of him completely!
"Brother Jie, do you know where the real treasure map is?" Daiyu asked.Since the fourth brother was framed by someone with a heart, it is obvious that the treasure map must have fallen into the hands of that person.Lin Jiezhi heard the words, but gave Daiyu a very appreciative glance. She was indeed worthy of being the master's daughter, and she hit the point with a single word, so she smiled slightly: "There are two copies of the real treasure map, and one is in the In the hands of Empress Yifei, as for the other one, it is in the hands of Miss Yueyan."
Daiyu was taken aback when she heard the words, and said, "Yueyan also has a treasure map in her hand?" Lin Jiezhi said, "But the second girl can rest assured that Miss Yueyan probably doesn't even know that she holds a treasure map in her hand." Treasure map. As for Concubine Yi, she only has half a treasure map in her hand, but she hides it very deeply, so it can be seen that Concubine Yi's origin is not simple." Hearing this, Daiyu was Nodding thoughtfully.
While the two were talking, they suddenly heard a scream from outside, Dai Yu and the others rushed out, only to see a man with a long scar above his left eyebrow grab Xiao Yueyan's wrist, and beside the man, There is also a middle-aged man in his 40s, dressed in a light blue shirt, who looks quite bookish.
When Daiyu saw her, she vaguely guessed the identity of the person who came. She gave a salute and said with a smile: "I don't know how this little girl offended the two masters, so that she did so?" The middle-aged man was shocked by Daiyu's words. The soft thorn in the middle was stunned for a moment, and then he said: "My surname is Chen, and the cursive character is near Nan. Because this girl looks a bit like an old friend of my friend, so I just want to invite this girl to have a cup of tea."
Chen Jinnan?Hearing this name, Daiyu's mouth showed a smile.
Hearing the jealous and domineering and selfish words from the jade girl in her arms, Yinzhen's heart felt sweet. It turned out that Yu'er was so important to herself. Thinking of this, Yinzhen couldn't help Feeling hugged Daiyu even more tightly, he swore that in this life, even if he sacrificed everything, he would protect Yu'er's safety, and never repeat the tragedy of Huang Ama and Huang Erniang again, yes, even if he sacrificed everything Everything, he doesn't care about being infamous for the ages alone, as long as the beauty in his arms is safe and happy.
"A generation is a couple in a lifetime, lovesickness looks at each other and also goes on a blind date." Yinzhen spit out this sentence from his mouth that he promised Daiyu his whole life. "Fourth Brother..." After hearing these words, Daiyu couldn't help looking at Yinzhen's handsome and mature face, but seeing the firmness in those eyes, Daiyu knew that Yinzhen would not lie to her, Unknowingly moved, he wrapped his arms around Yinzhen's waist, showing a sweet smile, a pair of beautiful eyes engulfed Yinzhen's heart like autumn waves, and opened his mouth lightly, saying: "Fourth brother, I believe in you!"
The lotus wind secretly sends incense, and the drunken people want to get drunk. Before they know it, it is already a branch on the moon, and the stars are twinkling.At this time, a servant girl had already come to report: "Return to Princess Chenyu, Sibeile, it's time to eat." Daiyu Yinzhen listened and said: "Understood, you can step back." Let's go to the dining room together.

Seeing this, Daiyu frowned slightly, because she said: "Don't be so troublesome, just set the seats for me and my sister with the fourth brother and the thirteenth brother, so as not to disturb the tranquility of your family's meal!" After hearing this, Lian hurriedly said, "How can this be done?" Daiyu said, "I will do it if I say so. Go and tell Li Wei that it's what I mean. Let's see if he dares to listen!" Seeing this, Miaoyu , also said with a faint smile: "You just do what my sister says, don't look at my sister's frail appearance, she has such a temper that even Fourth Master is afraid of!"

After eating, Daiyu wanted to go back to her room to rest, but at this moment, a dart flashed by, but it was fixed on a pillar beside her, with a note on it, which read: Write: "Tomorrow at Chen's hour, go to Zhangjia Village in the suburbs."
"Yu'er, what happened?" When Daiyu was holding the note on the dart in a daze, she saw Yinzhen flying over with lightness kung fu.Seeing the note in Daiyu's hand again, she frowned and asked, "What is this?"

Daiyu heard the words, Unknowingly sighed: "Fourth brother, you always know me so well." Hearing this, Yinzhen frowned, and said: "Yu'er, it's better not to go, maybe this is a trap set by the enemy Maybe."
Daiyu heard the words, but looked at Yinzhen firmly, and said: "'If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch tiger cubs', not to mention that no outsiders know about our departure from Beijing, I believe it will be fine.

It was really hard to believe that they were in southern Fujian, a place that was extremely hot and unbearable.

After that, she said: "My old woman is a villager in Zhangjia Village nearby. The reason why Jiacun is called Zhangjiacun is that every household in this village is named Zhang. My wife is the wife of the elder in this village, and people in the village call me Mama Zhang. Since my old man passed away, only Next, I live with one of my grandsons. Although our place was not civilized before, we farmed by ourselves. Every family has ample food and clothing, and our days are peaceful. Although it is not as prosperous as outside, it is also like a paradise, and it has never happened. What happened to the chickens and dogs. Until some things came out, people from other places often came to harass us, even local officials came here from time to time. We couldn't bear it, so we had to stand up and resist, but the land here turned It became barren and could no longer grow any crops, so within four or five miles, it was all such a desolate scene."
Xiao Yueyan heard the words, because she asked: "Mother Zhang, since this is the case, why don't you just get in touch with people outside? Although the world is complicated and people's hearts are unpredictable, there are still many good people and few bad people in this world. Sincere friendship, there must be many people who are willing to help you reorganize your homeland, and you can have more ways, so you don't have to work so hard in the future."
Mother Zhang sighed, and said: "People in our village are not very good at dealing with outsiders. Besides, people in our village have lived here for more than 300 years. I really don't want outsiders to disturb our cleanliness. Yes. So we spread rumors outside, that whenever an outsider comes, we will shoot that person with arrow poison, so there has always been no outsider here, of course, until after that happened." After saying that, he remained silent. said.
Daiyu saw that Zhang's mother was a little secretive every time she spoke, it seemed that there were some things she didn't want them to know, but Daiyu also guessed that Zhang's mother might be on guard against them, after all, everyone has something that belongs to them. It's secret, so I won't ask any more questions.At this time, Miaoyu suddenly said: "Mother Zhang, we have been traveling all the way, and our throat is a little dry. I wonder if we can come to your village to beg for saliva." He said: "Okay. Although our village has never allowed outsiders to enter, but you saved my life, I will make an exception, but you should leave here after drinking the water. This is not the place you should come to."
When Daiyu and the others heard this, they were suspicious in their hearts, but they didn't show it on their faces, they just smiled lightly and said, "It's natural."
Following that mother into the village, Daiyu found that although the village seemed a bit desolate for some reason, it was hard to imagine that this was an uncivilized land, because the people here were not as described in the book. Tyrannical, unreasonable, even disregarding human life like a savage.On the contrary, the people here are very simple and kind. Although there is always a trace of wariness in their eyes when they see them coming, they are still very friendly.
After drinking the water, Daiyu and the others were about to leave when they heard a somewhat familiar voice. Daiyu turned her head and found that the person was none other than Lin Jiezhi. "Brother Jiezhi, why are you here?" Daiyu was a little surprised, she never expected to meet Lin Jiezhi here. "Jiezhi has met the eldest girl, the second girl, and Yueyan girl." Lin Jiezhi bowed to Daiyu and the others, and then explained with a smile: "Actually, this is Jiezhi's hometown. My original surname is Zhang, and my first name is Hua, Cao Zizhi, because he received the master's great kindness and could not repay it, so he changed his name to Lin Jiezhi and worked for him by his side. Now it is heard that the girl, the fourth master and the thirteenth master are coming to Fujian, the master I was afraid that something might happen to the girls, so I ordered me to follow and protect them secretly, and besides, I may not have been back to my hometown for a long time, so I might as well take this opportunity to come back and have a look."
When Daiyu heard this, she was surprised and said, "I never thought that Jiezhi's elder brother would be from this village." Lin Jiezhi smiled lightly when he heard this.At this moment, a villager came over and asked, "Ah Hua, do you recognize these girls?" Lin Jiezhi heard this, and said with a smile, "Uncle, these girls are the young ladies of Mr. Lin's residence. "The villager heard the words, the defensiveness in his eyes gradually disappeared, and he said: "It turns out that it is the young lady of Mr. Lin's house. We were really rude just now." Then he sighed: "Mr. Da En, if it weren't for the village's regulations, you are not allowed to leave the village without authorization, we would never have let Ah Hua go with Master Lin alone, and we must have followed to repay Master Lin's great kindness .”
Hearing this, Daiyu was curious, wondering what her father had done to make these villagers very grateful, but now was not the time to pursue these issues, so Daiyu asked Lin Jiezhi: "Brother Jie, what happened last night? Was that note from you? I can see that the handwriting is somewhat similar to Daddy's."
Lin Jiezhi nodded, and said: "Exactly, I came here looking for the girl, but I have something important to say to her, but Li Wei's residence is extremely inconvenient, so I used a note to lead the girl here." When Daiyu heard this, she couldn't help but feel serious, because she asked: "But what is it that makes Brother Jie not make up his mind?"
Lin Jiezhi said: "It's not that I can't make up my mind, it's just that the master said that this matter must be told to the girl, but only the girl and the elder girl can know." Xiao Yueyan said after hearing this: " Girl, if that's the case, I will go out for a walk, and I will come back after you finish speaking." As soon as the words finished, Xiao Yueyan got up and went out.Seeing this, Daiyu nodded unconsciously. To be honest, although Xiao Yueyan had never done anything outrageous by her side, Daiyu still had to be more cautious. After all, Xiaoyueyan Yan's life experience is complicated, and she has something to do with Tiandihui. Seeing her behavior like this now, she can let go of the heart that has been hanging for a long time.
"Did the unknown girl ever hear that Mr. Li Guangdi has a treasure map?" After Xiao Yueyan left, Lin Jiezhi asked.Daiyu nodded, and said: "I heard that I have heard of it, so what?" Lin Jiezhi heard it, and said: "Actually, the person who holds the treasure map is not Mr. Li Guangdi, but Master Li. And that treasure is nothing but the talisman that can mobilize the troops of the Eight Banners—Crimson Pearl!"
Lin Jiezhi's words were like a bomb dropped into the lake, which shocked both Daiyu and Miaoyu, never expecting it to be like this.After a while, the two finally came to their senses, only to hear Lin Jiezhi continue: "The master inherited the position of patriarch, and at the same time inherited the Jade Dragon, Golden Phoenix Order and Crimson Pearl, which symbolized the power of the Eight Banners General Banner. They are pregnant with the second girl. Since the wife was pregnant with the second girl, the master and the wife have dreamed of a plant of crimson bead fairy grass at the same time, and the crimson bead fairy grass is said to be you, the second girl! Later, the girl was born, but there was indeed a plant on her chest. A bright red bead like blood, Buddhists call it Zhi Zhu. The master knew from then on that the girl had to shoulder the mission since birth, so he decided to find a secret place to hide the crimson bead, and then painted He made a treasure map that only the descendants of the Lin family could understand, and after the girl was old enough, he handed over the treasure map to the girl, and asked the girl to retrieve the crimson pearl by herself, but what was unexpected was that the Lin family An accidental theft, but lost the trace of this treasure map..."
What happened next, Daiyu and Miaoyu were able to guess a thing or two, so they asked again: "It is said that the fourth brother was assassinated because of Jiangzhu, I just don't understand, since this treasure map It has been lost, and it is a treasure map that can only be understood by the descendants of the Lin family, so how can you guess that the crimson pearl is in the fourth brother's house?" Lin Jiezhi smiled lightly when he heard the words, and said: "This What is so difficult to understand, there are many things in this world that go without wind and waves!"
When Daiyu heard this, she understood, it seems that someone must have secretly framed the fourth brother, this crimson bead is just a prelude, the key is that the treasure is in the Sibeile Mansion, this is extremely important.Thinking of this, Daiyu felt cold in her heart, the fourth brother will be the one who will occupy that position in the future, and she will definitely not be the queen behind him, she is Daiyu, the unique Daiyu in the world, She is a woman who wants to stand side by side with the fourth brother, so she should not rely on the protection of the fourth brother. On the contrary, if someone tries to get the fourth brother's idea, no matter who he is, she will definitely get rid of him completely!
"Brother Jie, do you know where the real treasure map is?" Daiyu asked.Since the fourth brother was framed by someone with a heart, it is obvious that the treasure map must have fallen into the hands of that person.Lin Jiezhi heard the words, but gave Daiyu a very appreciative glance. She was indeed worthy of being the master's daughter, and she hit the point with a single word, so she smiled slightly: "There are two copies of the real treasure map, and one is in the In the hands of Empress Yifei, as for the other one, it is in the hands of Miss Yueyan."
Daiyu was taken aback when she heard the words, and said, "Yueyan also has a treasure map in her hand?" Lin Jiezhi said, "But the second girl can rest assured that Miss Yueyan probably doesn't even know that she holds a treasure map in her hand." Treasure map. As for Concubine Yi, she only has half a treasure map in her hand, but she hides it very deeply, so it can be seen that Concubine Yi's origin is not simple." Hearing this, Daiyu was Nodding thoughtfully.
While the two were talking, they suddenly heard a scream from outside, Dai Yu and the others rushed out, only to see a man with a long scar above his left eyebrow grab Xiao Yueyan's wrist, and beside the man, There is also a middle-aged man in his 40s, dressed in a light blue shirt, who looks quite bookish.
When Daiyu saw her, she vaguely guessed the identity of the person who came. She gave a salute and said with a smile: "I don't know how this little girl offended the two masters, so that she did so?" The middle-aged man was shocked by Daiyu's words. The soft thorn in the middle was stunned for a moment, and then he said: "My surname is Chen, and the cursive character is near Nan. Because this girl looks a bit like an old friend of my friend, so I just want to invite this girl to have a cup of tea."
Chen Jinnan?Hearing this name, Daiyu's mouth showed a smile.
